iPhone/Objective C: Can't delete a file

In my application, I let the user record a sound clip and later, if the user chooses, I want him to be able to delete it. This is the code I use: NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager]; NSError *error; NSLog(@"File exists: %d", [fileManager fileExistsAtPath:path]); NSLog(@"Is deletable file at path...

How do I "Create a Reference To a Different Workbook" that supports closed workbooks.

I want to do something like this: Create a Reference To a Different Workbook (look for this section in the page). However, the instruction says that the documents must be opened for the INDIRECT function to work. How can I make it work even if the documents are closed? Any other solutions / alternatives? I don't want to open each file...

c++, boost: how to fill buffer and transfer (image) file data over network ?

Hi! I'm working on an application where I need to send a "filename", "filesize" and the filedata over the network. I created a server using boost which, for now, reads in the filesize and name. I'm wondering how I can fill a buffer with the file data (if necessary) and how to transfer it to the server. This is what I've got now: #i...

Continously Updating UIViews in Objective C

I am very new to Iphone programming with Objective-C but I have picked up pretty fast in the last 1 month. I have an application that reads data from a .csv which I then use to plot a continous graph on the Iphone. The problem is that there are close to 84,000 data points ( a major requirement) and the current design I used with Quartz ...

Cannot find constructor File() in java.io.File

This is probably obvious, so bear with me. YES, I KNOW THAT java.io.File has no default constructor. The problem is that When I try to extend java.io.File, it says "Cannot find constructor File() in java.io.File" even though I am overriding the default constructor in java.lang.Object. Here is my code: AbsRelFile.java import java....

Scala, Java and equality

val filesHere = (new java.io.File(".")).listFiles val filesHere2 = (new java.io.File(".")).listFiles scala> filesHere == filesHere2 res0: Boolean = false That is quite counter intuitive. I would rather expect that filesHere and filesHere2 are equal. This is certainly due to a semantics mismatch between Java and Scala, e.g., ab...

Finding Changed files in a ClearCase folder

I have a Folder in ClearCase that contains a large list of Reports. I have checked all the Reports out because I need to make a sweeping change. I have changed a set of the Reports and now want to deploy this set. I probably should have checked the Report files out one at a time and then deployed each as I finished. But, since I did n...

Problem reading files greater than 1GB with XMLReader

Is there a maximum file size the XMLReader can handle? I'm trying to process an XML feed about 3GB large. There are certainly no PHP errors as the script runs fine and successfully loads to the database after it's been run. The script also runs fine with smaller test feeds - 1GB and below. However, when processing larger feeds the scr...

Reading String from File with Objective C

This one is weird. Hopefully I will ask the right question: I'm using an md5 method to create a checksum value which I then write to a file. Then afterwards I read the file using this: NSString * id_From_File = [[NSString alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:path_to_ID encodi...

Trying to call readline() on a file object in python but it's pausing

I'm using the readline() function to read data from a file object obtained through the subprocess module: proc = subprocess.Popen(cmd, bufsize=0, stdout=subprocess.PIPE). This allows me to use proc.stdout as a file-like object with proc.stdout.readline(). My issue is that this pauses waiting for input and I'd like it to time out and m...

Where is the Xcode build results file ?

Atomically locking multiple files

What is the best way to atomically lock multiple files? One possibility I've thought of is a simple .lock file in the directory (I'm only protected from other instances of my program; I'm not necessarily trying to thwart other programs from disrespecting the lock.) However, everything I've learned about thread-safety screams "bad idea!" ...

Downloading a file from a Struts2 action in a portlet

I've got a basic file download action that is working in the standalone version of my Struts2 webapp, but when I try to use it in the portlet version (using struts2-portlet-plugin), I'm having troubles. First it said it didn't support "text/plain", so I added that to my portlet.xml supports section. Now it's saying java.lang.IllegalSta...

Better suggestion for external config file

I am currently using xml as a config file for my silverlight application. I have no problem reading the file, but now that I also require to update the file through web(preferably silverlight as will show preview of font colors, size etc), the only method I thought of is to generate the whole file and overwrite the existing through uploa...

files getting wrongly cached by the web server while using standard python file operations (Django)

I have a Django app, which populates content from a text file, and populates them using the initial option in a standard form. The file gets updated on the server, but when the form gets refreshed, it picks up content from the a previously saved version, or the version before the Apache WebServer was reloaded. This means that the file i...

File object in memory using Python

I'm not sure how to word this exactly but I have a script that downloads an SSL certificate from a web server to check it's expiration date. To do this, I need to download the CA certificates. Currently I write them to a temporary file in the /tmp directory and read it back later but I am sure there must be a way to do this without writ...
