Recursive loop through the file system.

Hello!

I'm trying to figure if Javascript is my answer to my problem.  I have been able to re - write all my AppleScript scripts that manipulate Illustrator with the exception of those that he had to use the file system.  We stayed in PC at work and now I have to figure this out.  Our art files are saved with a number of 7 digits, followed by the name of art in the file.  Ex: 1000049-Bob Garage.  My applescript had a recursive loop that worked its way down through the structure of the files on our server art until it finds the record low where it belonged, then saved in itself.  Here is an example of how the structure of server files (these are the folder names) is extended:

1000000-1004999

1005000-1005999

1010000-1014999

and so on.

The script would load all foldernames in the first level of the directory, loop through them and watch the first and last name of each of these folder names, then compare the Illustrator file name to them.  If my file is between the two, then the loop itself, called loaded the files inside of that folder and in doing so, working its way down through the folders through the tree structure until there where records is no longer.  At this point, the file was saved, in the order, where it should be.

I have no idea on how to start this task with Javascript, if this is possible even with a language developed for browsers.  I'm with other people who are frustrated by such a widely adopted language, if little info is available on its use outside the browser.  If anyone can tell me all resources dealing with Javascript programming of the file system, or even to have the kindness to write this little monster for me, I'd always in your debt!

Thanks in advance for any time you spend with this problem!

Open the ESTK, and then on the Help menu, you will find a link to the Javascript Tools Guide. You will find everything that you need in Chapter 3 file system access.

    He is so little known about your configuration - because the forums MS Answers do not ask for information, when a new question is asked.

    If you run some kind of RAID configuration, you might do better if you describe your RAID configuration and after the actual event that you see in the event log (is it event ID 55?).  Then maybe you will get some ideas of the Microsoft Support engineer who might actually work.

    You see just this event in the paper at random times or is it when you try to run a specific operation and if yes, what operation triggers the event?  Here is an article of MS to help get you started, but if you use Google to search for the error message, you can find more ideas:

    Here's how to publish events to the event to display the log files:

    If you double-click on an event, it will open a window of properties with more information.  On the right are black up and down arrow keys to scroll through the open events. The third button that looks like two overlapping pages is used to copy the details of the event in your Windows Clipboard.

    When you find an interesting event that occurred at the time of your question, click on the third button at the top and arrows to copy the details and then you can paste the details (right click, paste or CTRL-V) the text in detail here for analysis.  Remove all personal information from your information after you paste If you are forced to do so.

    If you paste an event, it will look something like this annoying system startup event:

  • __File names are larger than is supported by the file system

    I tried to upgrade from Vista to 7, but the upgrade attempted to restore Vista.  To exit a loop of reboot, I started from the drive of W7 upgrade went to the command prompt and found a folder with subfolders 25.  After moving them to another directory, I was able to get the roll to Vista is complete.  I tried to delete the record with 25 subfolders.  But I get the error message "the folder contains items whose names are too long for the trash.  and "the names of source files are larger than is supported by the file system.  Try to move to a location that has a shorter path name, or try renaming to shorter name (s) before launching the operation".  I tried shift-delete to bypass the Recycle Bin, but it does not work.  I tried moving and able to copy to a different folder after what I was able to remove the old records but could not delete the new folder.  Now, for some reason any I can rename the subfolder name (they were all named "Downloads"), but when I did it it would create several subfolders named "downloads".  So now I have 60-70 subfolders, rather than the original 25.

    Does anyone has a suggestion or a program to help me remove the offending folder?  Should I go on my recovery drive and recover Vista of the D: drive on the C: drive?  If this does not work, will it reformat the hard drive?  If I reformat, how to move to Windows 7?  Thanks for any help.

    HII secoch ,

    Thanks for posting your queries.

    I hope you have this problems, but this forum is to help everyone, I want something here too, I did too and it really helped.

    First thing is you do not need to download all programs for this.

    Like, Windows has problems dealing with extra long path/filenames. If the
    combination of the names of access road and closer to 255 characters (127 for
    Windows 95/98/me) Windows probably not manage it well, if you try to remove or
    Rename it (you can create it, but not change it). The first
    thing is trying to rename some of the files which lead to the queue
    himself. The directory displayed a level of return, and then select Rename the
    folder the file is located in. Try a single letter (of course, to keep a record of what
    folder you called that so you can reverse the process!). Then, return to the
    file and see if Windows then you can rename or remove. Otherwise, go back
    yet another folder and rename this one and so on. At some point, you should be
    be able to find a series of folder names of reduced length which you can then
    Rename the file to a name that is short enough to allow you to recreate then
    the original directory tree and still work with the file in question.  In fact, the main goal is to try to make the shortest path of length instead of only the file name and the folder name.

    I also hope that this help option.  If this isn't the case, please after return or PIN me.

    Hello

    After trying for a while, I get it how to use FileConnection.mkdir () in my code.

    But I am facing a problem here. When the mkdir() is executed, it gives me FileIOException: file system error

    Here is my code that attempts to create a directory called myDir

    try {}
    FileConnection fc = (FileConnection) Connector.open ("file:///store/home/myDir", Connector.READ_WRITE);
    If (! fc.exists ()) {}
    FC.mkdir ();


    }
    } catch (Exception e) {}
    Dialog.Alert (try ());
    }

    I even tried to give the path like 'file:///store/home/myDir/' because I tried to create a directory. But it also gives the same exception.

    Please let me know if I'm doing one any mistake here.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think the problem is... BlackBerry does not allow a directory to be created in the folder /store/ the device. Because I am able to create a directory in the directory/SDCard /.

    Is this something that we cannot create a directory in the root directory of the device?

    Hello

    I'm sorry to keep posting here because I'm trying various things in my code and got to know more. But I write as soon as I get a result, so that it can be useful for those who are looking for the same thing.

    I even tried to create a directory in/store/home/user/and it works fine. So that means, we need to create our directories in the directory/store/home/user or/SDCard /.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Thank you

    Can someone explain this in detail...
    When I tried to create the folder on the memory card or memory in the camera, it gives exception as file system error...
    Is it related to any authorization or specific parameters... ??
    JDE 4.2.1.16
    8100 Simulator...
    Thanks in advance...

    Please make sure that the BlackBerry Simulator has been configured to support a micro SD card.  For this in the BlackBerry JDE by clicking on the menu Edition, by selecting Preferences, by clicking on the Simulator tab, then on the tab memory and filling of the size of the SD card and the SD card image settings.

    Hi yog123,

    The code you mentioned is valid, but I guess you make a small mistake here.

    Whenever you want to create a directory, you should give "/" after the name directory to inside the Connector.open)

    Just put "/" after the directory name "sp" in your code as shown below.

    FileConnection fconn = (FileConnection)Connector.open("file:///SDCard/BlackBerry/pictures/sp/",Connector.READ_WRITE);
    

    Please let us know if you still find no problem.

    Thank you

  • VM simulator - how to access the file system.

    I was wondering if anyone knows how to access the file vmware playbook simulator system.

    I don't want access programmatically, I covered, for access to the file system to copy files to the Simulator in shared directories.

    When you connect a playbook on the USB, it shows up as a drive, and I would like access to the same playbook vm dir structure to copy files for testing. for example if your s app access the pictures on the camera, I would like to copy some images for the test. Any ideas?

    TIA - dave

    Search the forum for more information on using 'ssh' to access the Simulator and more specifically help 'scp' or 'sftp' to transfer files to. You will do this in the files under/accounts/1000/shared, and if you're on Windows you will probably be to install PuTTY to do this. Feel free to ask for help more once you have dug through it all.

  • Oracle WebCenter content allows you to export all content database on the file system?

    un) I read through the links to understand the properties of table FileCache:

    (i) management of a system of storage of files - 11 g Release 1 (11.1.1)

    (II) 3.5 Configuration of a system of Bank

    I need to clear all user content (refunds) stored in the database (assuming that the storage Type is defined as JDBC) on the file system for a period of time, but don't know how to do step by step. Only fragments of information are present in the links above.

    b) I also understand that the content uploaded by the user on the content of WebCenter when the storage Type is defined as JDBC are stored down LOBs format. But is there a way to encrypt content before storing them in the database. I read this link:

    https://blogs.Oracle.com/fusionecm/entry/ucm_and_11g_db_securefiles

    But simply make the filestorage table as being encrypted, it will encrypt all content that the user downloads?

    Hey there,

    You can export your file system content using utility to archive it.

    not sure the second part but I think that all the documents would get encrypted.

  • Database failover - of ASM to the file system

    Hello

    Based on this article: http://manchev.org/2012/01/building-a-failover-database-using-oracle-database-11g-standard-edition-and-file-watchers/

    I would like to know if it would be possible to perform the same operation, but in a case where my source database uses ASM and the failover is not.

    I think that this (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/backup.111/b28270/rcmasmmi.htm#i1014926) should apply, but I don't have time to test it myself right now so I thought to try here and maybe get some valuable information/feedback on it.

    Yes that's correct.

    The control file can be restored using the to the article. Generate a backup of control file of the primary (which is on the FRA) and restore:

    restore controlfile from '/backup/controlfile.bkp' to '/u01/control_file_path.ctl';
    

    And the new location of the data files can be defined during the restoration, as you pointed out, with switch datafile at the end:

    SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 1 TO NEW;
    SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 2 TO NEW;
    SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 3 TO NEW;
    SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 4 TO NEW;
    (..)
    restore database;
    SWITCH DATAFILE ALL;
    

    'NEW' article is if you plan to use OMF files, through the db_create_file_dest system. If the data files are to be spread on different mount points you can name them individually, as:

    SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 1 TO '/path/to/datafile1.dbf';
    (...)
    SWITCH DATAFILE ALL;
    

    Also don't forget to erase (rebuild) your redo log after restoring files, set DB_CREATE_ONLINE_LOG_DEST_n correctly.

    The website above describe the steps when adding an additional drive, but the steps for extending on a new partition on the same disk should be similar.

  • I ran CHKDSK, the report tells me I have problems with the file system, usn journal. ___

    I ran CHKDSK, the report tells me that I have problems with the sys file. I ran CHKDSK/F, it is said it fixed the problem but I ran CHKDSK again and it shows that the same listed the issues.

    Describe how you run chkdsk.

    That is what the report said: you have problems with the sys file?

    CHKDSK examines the disk space and use of the disk for the table of allocation of files (FAT) and NTFS file systems. CHKDSK provides information specific to each file system in a situation report. The report shows the errors found in the file system. If you run chkdsk without the /f on an active partition command line option, it can report errors because it cannot lock the drive. You should use chkdsk occasionally on each disk to check for errors.

    If you run chkdsk from a command prompt while Windows is running, it can report errors or it may not report errors - and it may report different
    Errors each time you run.  If this is the case, it could just be the way you run chkdsk.

    Here's how Microsoft explains this observation:

    "... CHKDSK may report that the disc is damaged, even when there is no
    current real corruption. This can happen if NTFS happens to modify
    areas of the disc on behalf of some programme activities that CHKDSK is
    review at the same time. To check a volume correctly, the volume
    must be in a static state, and the only way to ensure that the State is
    to lock the volume. CHKDSK only locks the volume when /F or/r (which
    involves the 'F') is specified. For example, you may need to run CHKDSK more than
    time so that it can complete all the steps in read-only mode. »

    If you run chkdsk from a command prompt, you are not the necessary static state and you can encounter errors "when no real corruption is present. This is how it works when you use this way.  Any changes made to a NTFS file system modifies the USN Journal.  If you are not in a static state, your USN change Journal probably all the time, so what you see (says something like that) can be quite normal.

    Two ways to ensure that you are in a static state is to run chkdsk from the Recovery Console or to schedule a chkdsk to run the next time that the system
    Restart by answering Yes to the question:

    Would you want to check this volume to be the next time the system restarts?

    If chkdsk reports errors when running in a static state, the errors should be investigated, resolved or explained.  This may take several
    chkdsk runs all of the issues and some problems cannot be resolved by chkdsk.

    If chkdsk runs the next time the system is restarted, the activity and the result will be displayed in the application event log.  Look in the Application log for
    Winlogon events and a source have the date and the duration nearby time chkdsk.

    It is in fact a chkdsk additional reading if you want to learn about it and it will explain everything you see and why your expectations exceed reality.
