My Grails app is successfully uploading then parsing a MultipartFile with the following code:
def file = request.getFile('rawReport')
def report = new XmlSlurper().parse(file.inputStream)
My Problem: I need the path of the original file ('rawReport'), can see path information in the Debugger's "Expression" View, but can't find a method that will return the file's path as I need it.
I've found loads of "methods of the sort I'd like to have" here but they're all for simple Files, not MultipartFiles. I felt a surge of hope when I found "getStorageDescription" for MultipartFiles here but that hope was dashed when it returned "in memory" (literally... what good is that?!)
It's frustrating because I can see pieces of what I could use in the debugger... STS Expression View: Name:file -> repository -> path "\\home$\Happiness\Awaits\You\Here..."
Any help would be most appreciated.
In general it's not available as described in the Javadoc for the getOriginalFilename() method: http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.0.x/javadoc-api/org/springframework/web/multipart/commons/CommonsMultipartFile.html#getOriginalFilename%28%29
I'm guessing that this is a security issue. I found that it behaved for me as described for Firefox and Chrome, and even Opera didn't include the full path. So even if you can get the information locally you wouldn't be able to trust that the full path would be available in general.
You might look for a Flash-based uploader which wouldn't be constrained by browser restrictions.

I like using .fsi signature files to control visibility. However, if I have both Foo.fsi and Foo.fs files in my solution, and #load "Foo.fs" in a script, it doesn't seem like the corresponding signature file gets used. If I do:
#load "Foo.fsi"
#load "Foo.fs"
... then the desired visibility control happens. Is this the recommended way to achieve this, or is there a better way to do it? In a perfect world, one would like to see the signature file automatically loaded, too.
Not a final answer, but a better way.
From reading Expert F# 4.0 one can do
#load "Foo.fsi" "Foo.fs" "Foo.fsx"
All three loads are on one line.
TL;DR
The link to the book is via WolrdCat just put in a zip code and it will show you locations near there where the book can be found.
I have a script which saves some files at a given location. It works fine but when I send this code to someone else, he has to change the paths in the code. It's not comfortable for someone who does not know what is in that code and for me to explain every time where and how the code should be changed.
I want to get this path in a variable which will be taken from the configuration file. So it will be easier for everyone to change just this config file and nothing in my code. But I have never done this before and could not find any information on how I can do this in the internet.
PS: I do not have any code and I ask about an ultimate solution but it is really difficult to find something good in the internet about dxl, especially since I'm new with that. Maybe someone of you already does that or has an idea how it could be done?
DXL has a perm to read the complete context of a file into a variable: string readFile (string) (or Buffer readFile (string))
you can split the output by \n and then use regular expressions to find all lines that match the pattern
^\s*([^;#].*)\s*=\s*(.*)\s*$
(i.e. key = value - where comment lines start with ; or #)
But in DOORS I prefer using DOORS modules as configuration modules. Object Heading can be the key, Object Text can be the value.
Hardcode the full name of the configuration module into your DXL file and the user can modify the behaviour of the application.
The advantage over a file is that you need not make assumptions on where the config file is to be stored on the file system.
It really depends on your situation. You are going to need to be a little more specific about what you mean by "they need to change the paths in the code". What are these paths to? Are they DOORS module paths, are they paths to local/network files, or are the something else entirely?
Like user3329561 said, you COULD use a DOORS module as a configuration file. I wouldn't recommend it though, simply because that is not what DOORS modules were designed for. DOORS is fully capable of reading system files in one line at a time as well as all at once, but I can't recommend that option either until I know what types of paths you want to load and why.
I suspect that there is a better solution for your problem that will present itself once more information is provided.
I had the same problem, I needed to specify the path of my configuration file used in my dxl script.
I solved this issue passing the directory path as a parameter to DOORS.exe as follow:
"...\DOORS\9.3\bin\doors.exe" -dxl "string myVar = \"Hello Word\"
then in my dxl script, the variable myVar is a global variable.
So the question is actually simple, but I have no idea how to approach this issue. I know this code is generated by template based on this question:
XCode automatically generated comments?
I want to use the <name> that xcode provides on each mac machine which is unique for it's user, for some types of logs.
EDIT:
This is how the swift template file looks before it's used by Xcode to create my work file:
//
// ___FILENAME___
// ___PROJECTNAME___
//
// Created by ___FULLUSERNAME___ on ___DATE___.
//___COPYRIGHT___
//
Surely, there is no point in parsing it.
The question is: Does anyone knows how I can get this name using swift in my application?
I searched for an answer here/Google but so far no luck.
I don't know how to read the header. But you can do it otherwise.
First if you need the creation-date of a file, you can use the NSFileManager:
var path = "path/to/your/file/"
var fileAttribs:NSDictionary = NSFileManager.defaultManager().attributesOfFileSystemForPath(path, error: nil)!
var creationDate = fileAttribs.objectForKey(NSFileCreationDate)
Also if you need the full username, you can use the function NSFullUserName() or NSUserName(). It should return the same string as __FULLUSERNAME__
var fullUsername = NSFullUserName()
var username = NSUserName()
Sometimes in the iOS Simulator, this username is empty, but in a real app, it should work properly.
That text written at template instantiation time — that is, when you create a new Xcode project (or a new file in an existing project using the File > New > File... templates). You can't read the contents of the source file your code was compiled from. (Well, unless you ship that file along with your compiled binary, and read it in like any other text file.)
But that's just text substitution — it can be done anywhere in the file, not just in the comment headers. So you could create your own file or project templates, and in the template files, put those substitution macros in code instead of in comments:
let schmoeWhoCreatedThisFile = "___FULLUSERNAME___"
Here's a tutorial found in a couple seconds of web searching that has the full details on creating templates and the substitution macros you can use in them.
Remember, substitution happens when you create a new file or project — if you're looking for who made the latest change to your source file or who built the app that shipped to your customers, you're barking up the wrong tree. Some of those sorts of things you can do with source control; others are more a matter of (human-defined, human-executed) policy for you or or your organization.
I am trying to display some Images which are in my local folder. I am getting the image name from a server through JSON. Based on that, I am constructing the Image path dynamically. However, the final image path will be changed by SC build tools. I know that we can use sc_static() in css or view's specifications to map it to the final path. How can I achieve that mapping (to final path from local path) while programmatically constructing my url.
Any ideas, suggestions and thoughts?
sc_static is not a javascript function, but rather a convention used to tell Abbot (Sproutcore's build tool, written in ruby) to replace it at runtime with a path pointing to the resource passed as first argument to sc_static.
Note that this substitution is done by Abbot when the page is refreshed (in dev mode) or when the app is built (in prod mode). It is not a js function at all (use Chrome inspector to see it by yourself).
If you want to use sc_static in JS you can define all resource references as such:
YourApp.loadingIcon=sc_static('loading.png');
YourApp.greenIcon=sc_static('green.png');
and then reference the
YourApp.loadingIcon , YourApp.greenIcon
variables in your code.
Finally I found the answer with the help of my friends. sc_static is not javascript function it is a function targeted for build tools(Abbot) of Sproutcore to replace the actual production path after build. Hence we can not use sc_static in programming.
If we want similar function we have develop our own.
I am trying to create a setup project for a Windows Service. I've followed the directions at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816169 to create the setup project with no trouble.
I want to be able to get a value during the installation in order to update the app.config with the user's desired settings. I added a Textboxes (A) dialog to retrieve the values. I set the Edit1Property property to "TIMETORUN", and in my Primary Output action's CustomActionData property I put in the following: /TimeToRun="[TIMETORUN]\". So far so good. Running the setup I can retrieve the TimeToRun value from the Context.Parameters collection without issue.
In order to locate the app.config I need to also pass in the value of the TARGETDIR Windows Installer Property to my custom action. This is where things begin to fall apart. In order to achieve this, the above CustomActionData must be altered like so: /TimeToRun="[TIMETORUN]\" /TargetDir="[TARGETDIR]\". Now when I run the setup I get the following error message:
Error 1001. Exception occurred while initializing the installation.
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Files' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot
find the file specified.
If you google this problem you will inevitably find people having tremendous success by simply adding the trailing slash to the /TargetDir="[TARGETDIR]\" portion of the CustomActionData. This unfortunately does not solve my issue.
I tried so many different variations of the CustomActionData string and none of them worked. I tried logging to a file from my overridden Install method to determine where the breakage was, but no log file is created because it's not even getting that far. As the error indicates, the failure is during the Initialization step.
I have a hunch that it could be one of the dependencies that the setup project is trying to load. Perhaps somehow something is being appended to the CustomActionData string and isn't playing well with the TARGETDIR value (which contains spaces, i.e. "C:\Program Files\My Company\Project Name"). Again, this is another hunch that I cannot seem to confirm due to my inability to debug the setup process.
One further thing to mention, and yes it's another hunch, could this be an issue with Setup Projects on 64-bit version of Windows? I'm running Windows 7 Professional.
I'll provide names of the dependencies in case it helps:
Microsoft .NET Framework
Microsoft.SqlServer.DtsMsg.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSRuntimeWrap.dll
Microsoft.SQLServer.ManagedDTS.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.msxml6_interop.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.PipelineHost.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlTDiagM.dll
As you may glean from the dependencies, the Windows Service is scheduling a call to a DTSX package.
Sorry for the long rant. Thanks for any help you can provide.
The answer is so maddeningly simple. If the last argument in the CustomActionData is going to contain spaces and thus you have to surround it with quotes and a trailing slash, you must also have a space following the trailing slash, like this:
/TimeToRun="[TIMETORUN]\" /TargetDir="[TARGETDIR]\ "
The solution and explanation can be found here.
Had a similar issue. In my case, it was odd because my installer had ran successfully once, then I uninstalled my app via Add/Remove Programs successfully, did some coding (did NOT touch my CustomActionData string), and rebuilt my project and setup project. It was when I re-ran my MSI that I got this error.
The coding I had done was to bring in more values of more parameters I had been specifying in my CustomActionData string. That syntax for getting the parameter values (i.e. string filepath = Context.Paramenters["filepath"]), which was in my Installer class, was actually fine, but as I found out, the syntax of the later parameters I was now trying to get from my CustomActionData string had not been correct, from the very beginning. I had failed to add a second quote around one of those parameters, so nothing else could be obtained.
I was using the "Textboxes (A)" and "Textboxes (B)" windows in the User Interface section. A has 1 box, EDITA1, where I get the path to a file, and B has 2 boxes, EDITB1 and EDITB2, for some database parameters. My CustomActionData string looked like this:
/filepath="[EDITA1]" /host="[EDITB1] /port="[EDITB2]"
It should have been:
/filepath="[EDITA1]" /host="[EDITB1]" /port="[EDITB2]"
(closing quote on [EDITB1])
