Hello, I am writing a filewatcher windows application which will look for changes in a specified folder and then logs the details in a txt file. I followed exactly what is mentioned in this article below http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dotnet/folderwatcher.aspx When I hit F5 from my application and then create or modify a file in the fo...
I have a script that creates file system in a file on a linux machine. I see that to create the file system, it uses 'dd' with bs=x option, reads from /dev/zero and writes to a file. I think usually specifying ibs/obs/bs is useful to read from real hardware devices as one has specific block size constraints. In this case however, as it i...
Hello, I would like to know how can I access the file system from an EJB 3 bean? I searched the Internet on the subject and haven't found a good answer. Some suggest using the java.io/java.nio even though the specification prohibits this usage. Most application servers seem to allow the access to this API anyway. Another idea would b...
Hi, first question here! I'm writing a grep type program for Windows, just for fun (using Mingw). It works well for text files where lines are terminated by '\n'. I'm using fstream::getline() for this. But I also need to be able to search files containing just a giant block of text with no line numbers. fstream::getline() fails here. I...
I am trying to use the Desktop API to launch the appropriate app for a file. So i am using this : if (Desktop.isDesktopSupported()) Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File(path)); where "path" is a String pointing to the file. Everything works fine until i try to launch a jpg that resides at a network location (for instance "\\My...
I'm trying to copy one file to another directory, but the way I am copying the file is not working when the source path has a directory with spaces in it, e.g. /Volumes/public/Music/Directory With Spaces/01.mp3 I am using: http://commons.apache.org/io/ I can't find a way around this, any ideas? Edit: The problem should probably be p...

How to read from database and write into text file? I want to write/copy (not sure what to call) the record inside my database into a text file. One row record in database is equal to one line in the text file. I'm having no problem in database. For creating text file, it mentions FileStream and StreamWriter. Which one should I use? ...
I have a problem that i illustrated in this question but had no correct answers. I refined my problem and tried to edit the initial question to reflect that but i guess because of the way SO displays unanswered questions (if a question has an upvoted answer even if it does not solve your problem, the question no longer gets displayed in ...
I am currently working on a project where one of our goals is to reduce the total amount of data read from disk. Is there a way to determine the total number of bytes run by a process? I am working with on a C++ application built with Visual Studio 2005, running on Windows XP. Ideally, I would like some sort of monitor that can print re...
Consider the following: std::basic_fstream<char> testfile; testfile.write(reinterpret_cast<const char*>(&someInt), sizeof(int)); testfile.close(); This runs with no complaint when built with VC 8.0, but crashes when built with VC 10.0 beta. I have some legacy code that actually relies on the VC 8 behavior, where we inherit from basic...
I have implemented a small IO class, which can read from multiple and same files on different disks (e.g two hard disks containing the same file). In sequential case, both disks read 60MB/s in average over the file, but when I do an interleaved (e.g. 4k disk 1, 4k disk 2 then combine), the effective read speed is reduced to 40MB/s instea...
To read contents of a file: data = open(filename, "r").read() The open file immediately stops being referenced anywhere, so the file object will eventually close... and it shouldn't affect other programs using it, since the file is only open for reading, not writing. EDIT: This has actually bitten me in a project I wrote - it prompte...
Hi, I would like to run a timer for every 5 hours and delete the files from the folder older than 4 days. Could you please with sample code? Thank you.. ...
I believe I have come up with a very efficient way to read very, very large files line-by-line. Please tell me if you know of a better/faster way or see room for improvement. I am trying to get better at coding, so any sort of advice you have would be nice. Hopefully this is something that other people might find useful, too, so it isn...

Ok, I know that question is not very informative.. Someome feel free to change it after I explain: My asp.net mvc project is stored in a folder in my desktop. When I double click on the sln or csproj to open the project and then hit the Start Debuggin button it all works fine. But, when I go to start, programs and open Visual Web devel...
