I have a sqlite database of my Qt C++ application. Suppose I located it on my default build/release folder and I also placed the database file on that same folder. I have login.h and login.cpp. I want that the application may auto detect the database and open it. I will only provide the name of database (Ex: mydb.sqlite).
Database.addDatabase("QSQLITE");
Database.setDatabaseName("I will only provide database file name here.like: mydb.sqlite");
I want that the rest of the directory should automatically detected and the database connection works perfectly.
Suppose, I have the sqlite file in:
C:/Qt/build-myapp-mingw-32/mydb.sqlite.
I am taking a string variable called path. And I want that, the application automatically detect the whole path. And open the database connection.
You do not have to give the complete path to database to make it works.
You can refer to the path from your build dir or maybe use :
QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath();
To get the path of your app and then navigate through your directories with .. ?
I m trying to put a custom path in QML file but can't get it done.
I'm trying to get de db in a shared folder where i'm willing to put the DB so any person who has the program can acces to data.
I'm using Sqlite and Qt Creator 5.7 but not a lot of info about this.
You can simply COPY the database from its default path. Typically that is located (In windows anyways) at
C:\Users\<username>AppData\Local\<program name>\QML\OfflineStorage\Databases
and on Mobile devices it is stored in a similar place --
on android its in a sub folder of:
/data/data/<Program Name>
On *nix it is located:
/home/<user>/.local/share/[ProjectName]/QML/OfflineStorage/Databases
How I can upload a file with metadata creating a new version from ASP.NET web application to SharePoint 2010?
Is there any way?
Thanks in advance.
There are multiple ways to upload a file to a document library.
Perhaps the simplest way is simply to copy the file to the document library's URL using File.Copy. SharePoint supports WebDAV so you can treat a library as a network folder, opening/saving files directly from any application, copying and renaming from Windows Explorer etc.
You do face some limitations though:
The full path of the file can't be larger than 260 characters and SharePoint will truncate it without warning.
The file name can't contain some characters that are valid for Windows Explorer, eg #
If you try to save a file with the same name as an existing one, SharePoint will create a new file with a slightly different name without asking
You have no control over the author and creation date properties. SharePoint will use the current date and the credentials of the user executing the code.
You can't set any metadata although you can update the file's ListItem properties after uploading.
Another option is to use the Client object model and upload the file using File.SaveBinaryDirect. This option is better than simply copying the file, as it allows you to overwrite an existing file, but you still don't get direct access to the file's properties. Uploading could be as simple as this:
var clientContext = new ClientContext("http://intranet.contoso.com");
using (var fileStream =new FileStream("NewDocument.docx", FileMode.Open))
ClientOM.File.SaveBinaryDirect(clientContext,
"/Shared Documents/NewDocument.docx", fileStream, true);
Another option is to connect to a library using the Client Object Model and then create a file using FileCollection.Add, eg
Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.File uploadFile = documentsList.RootFolder.Files.Add(
fileCreationInformation);
Check this SO question, Upload a document to a SharePoint list from Client Side Object Model on how to use both SaveBinaryDirect and FileCollection.Add. The answers display both how to upload a file and how to modify its properties
Is there some sort of configuration settings in FlashBuilder 4.5 where you can easily switch between webservice urls? Right now I have to delete and recreate the web service every time I switch from local to production and vice versa.
The need/requirement is this – Since I work in a startup, we keep changing servers, and their IP addresses. And being a service oriented application – I need to be able to edit the webservice endpoints in my Flex application in a easy manner every time this happens.
My Solution for this -
Assumption is that my webservice endpoint looks like this -
http:////ListAllServices/
1) Create a file config.xml in a folder named “settings” that sits in the root folder of your Flex application – outside the “src” folder. And the config.xml will be a simple xml file of the following format -
localhostTestFlexApp
At the end of this exercise the directory structure of your flex source code will look like this -
flex_src(root of the source code)
-com(some source folder)
–testapp
—view
—
-images
-settings
–config.xml
-appName.mxml
2) Now in your application code, setup a HTTPService object either in mxml or action script. Set the url of that object to this value- “settings/config.xml” – And the above xml fiel containing the current settings will be loaded into memory .
Now you can store these values in a singleton object and construct your Webservice call at runtime.
And whenever you want to move this to a new server in production, edit the tag of your config.xml and you should be good to go.
And this can be automated as well via the EnvGen ant task.
This is not the best way but yes it is very helpful while switching among servers.
Alrighty... The way I was doing it before in fact worked. The problem was browser caching.
For the benefit of others I modified the subsclass for the generated service and replace the wsdl variable with whatever endpoint I need.
In my web application I have to send email to set of predefined users like finance#xyz.example, so I wish to add that to a .properties file and access it when required. Is this a correct procedure, if so then where should I place this file? I am using Netbeans IDE which is having two separate folders for source and JSP files.
It's your choice. There are basically three ways in a Java web application archive (WAR):
1. Put it in classpath
So that you can load it by ClassLoader#getResourceAsStream() with a classpath-relative path:
ClassLoader classLoader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
InputStream input = classLoader.getResourceAsStream("foo.properties");
// ...
Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.load(input);
Here foo.properties is supposed to be placed in one of the roots which are covered by the default classpath of a webapp, e.g. webapp's /WEB-INF/lib and /WEB-INF/classes, server's /lib, or JDK/JRE's /lib. If the propertiesfile is webapp-specific, best is to place it in /WEB-INF/classes. If you're developing a standard WAR project in an IDE, drop it in src folder (the project's source folder). If you're using a Maven project, drop it in /main/resources folder.
You can alternatively also put it somewhere outside the default classpath and add its path to the classpath of the appserver. In for example Tomcat you can configure it as shared.loader property of Tomcat/conf/catalina.properties.
If you have placed the foo.properties it in a Java package structure like com.example, then you need to load it as below
ClassLoader classLoader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
InputStream input = classLoader.getResourceAsStream("com/example/foo.properties");
// ...
Note that this path of a context class loader should not start with a /. Only when you're using a "relative" class loader such as SomeClass.class.getClassLoader(), then you indeed need to start it with a /.
ClassLoader classLoader = getClass().getClassLoader();
InputStream input = classLoader.getResourceAsStream("/com/example/foo.properties");
// ...
However, the visibility of the properties file depends then on the class loader in question. It's only visible to the same class loader as the one which loaded the class. So, if the class is loaded by e.g. server common classloader instead of webapp classloader, and the properties file is inside webapp itself, then it's invisible. The context class loader is your safest bet so you can place the properties file "everywhere" in the classpath and/or you intend to be able to override a server-provided one from the webapp on.
2. Put it in webcontent
So that you can load it by ServletContext#getResourceAsStream() with a webcontent-relative path:
InputStream input = getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-INF/foo.properties");
// ...
Note that I have demonstrated to place the file in /WEB-INF folder, otherwise it would have been public accessible by any webbrowser. Also note that the ServletContext is in any HttpServlet class just accessible by the inherited GenericServlet#getServletContext() and in Filter by FilterConfig#getServletContext(). In case you're not in a servlet class, it's usually just injectable via #Inject.
3. Put it in local disk file system
So that you can load it the usual java.io way with an absolute local disk file system path:
InputStream input = new FileInputStream("/absolute/path/to/foo.properties");
// ...
Note the importance of using an absolute path. Relative local disk file system paths are an absolute no-go in a Java EE web application. See also the first "See also" link below.
Which to choose?
Just weigh the advantages/disadvantages in your own opinion of maintainability.
If the properties files are "static" and never needs to change during runtime, then you could keep them in the WAR.
If you prefer being able to edit properties files from outside the web application without the need to rebuild and redeploy the WAR every time, then put it in the classpath outside the project (if necessary add the directory to the classpath).
If you prefer being able to edit properties files programmatically from inside the web application using Properties#store() method, put it outside the web application. As the Properties#store() requires a Writer, you can't go around using a disk file system path. That path can in turn be passed to the web application as a VM argument or system property. As a precaution, never use getRealPath(). All changes in deploy folder will get lost on a redeploy for the simple reason that the changes are not reflected back in original WAR file.

Word of warning: if you put config files in your WEB-INF/classes folder, and your IDE, say Eclipse, does a clean/rebuild, it will nuke your conf files unless they were in the Java source directory. BalusC's great answer alludes to that in option 1 but I wanted to add emphasis.
I learned the hard way that if you "copy" a web project in Eclipse, it does a clean/rebuild from any source folders. In my case I had added a "linked source dir" from our POJO java library, it would compile to the WEB-INF/classes folder. Doing a clean/rebuild in that project (not the web app project) caused the same problem.
I thought about putting my confs in the POJO src folder, but these confs are all for 3rd party libs (like Quartz or URLRewrite) that are in the WEB-INF/lib folder, so that didn't make sense. I plan to test putting it in the web projects "src" folder when i get around to it, but that folder is currently empty and having conf files in it seems inelegant.
So I vote for putting conf files in WEB-INF/commonConfFolder/filename.properties, next to the classes folder, which is Balus option 2.
Ex: In web.xml file the tag
<context-param>
<param-name>chatpropertyfile</param-name>
<!-- Name of the chat properties file. It contains the name and description of rooms.-->
<param-value>chat.properties</param-value>
</context-param>
And chat.properties you can declare your properties like this
For Ex :
Jsp = Discussion about JSP can be made here.
Java = Talk about java and related technologies like J2EE.
ASP = Discuss about Active Server Pages related technologies like VBScript and JScript etc.
Web_Designing = Any discussion related to HTML, JavaScript, DHTML etc.
StartUp = Startup chat room. Chatter is added to this after he logs in.
It just needs to be in the classpath (aka make sure it ends up under /WEB-INF/classes in the .war as part of the build).
You can you with your source folder so whenever you build, those files are automatically copied to the classes directory.
Instead of using properties file, use XML file.
If the data is too small, you can even use web.xml for accessing the properties.
Please note that any of these approach will require app server restart for changes to be reflected.
Assume your code is looking for the file say app.properties. Copy this file to any dir and add this dir to classpath, by creating a setenv.sh in the bin dir of tomcat.
In your setenv.sh of tomcat( if this file is not existing, create one , tomcat will load this setenv.sh file.
#!/bin/sh
CLASSPATH="$CLASSPATH:/home/user/config_my_prod/"
You should not have your properties files in ./webapps//WEB-INF/classes/app.properties
Tomcat class loader will override the with the one from WEB-INF/classes/
