Is there any MS-DOS command to get the version of am executable (or dll) file?
Of course there is a simple command ;-)
wmic /node:"servername" datafile where name='c:\\Program Files (x86)\\Symantec\\Symantec Endpoint Protection\\smc.exe' get version
you can ommit /node to perform check on the local computer. And if you ommit "get version" you get all the values and column names. Of course there are standard wmic parameters available like /output:filename, /append:filename or /format:csv and you can use #list.txt instead of a server name to perform check on list of machines.
Either user powershell
see
Get file version in PowerShell
or Windows Explorer
or write your own utility, I don't think that MSDOS supports this natively.
You could load the executable as a binary file and read the PE headers manually...

You can try Resource Hacker with the following syntax:
reshack.exe -extract "path\to\my\file.dll," ver.rc, VERSIONINFO, , && findstr FILEVERSION ver.rc
Beware of commas. Make sure you can create ver.rc.

I am trying to export data to existing csv file.
I have been using these methods to export data.
Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0
SQLCMD
Data Export Wizard
However I cannot find if there is any parameter / option to append the exported data to existing file. Is there any way? Thanks.
Note: answer is biased towards *nix operating systems; I'm not too familiar with windows.
If you can run your sql query via the command line,
using a scripting language, you can use a library that creates an MSSQL connection, (an example of this is a node.js program I authored (https://github.com/skilbjo/aqtl but any tool will do), or
a windows binary that runs something like sqlcmd from the command line,
you can just pipe the output to the csv file. For example:
$ node runquery.js myquery.sql >> existing_csv_file.csv
Is there a way to specify the current working directory for the system command executed by the function module SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE?
I do not see any parameter which would allow me to do that either by defining the command in transaction SM69 or on the list of IMPORTING parameters in SE37.
It looks like by default such commands are started in DIR_HOME which can be viewed by the transaction AL11. Do I have any control over that?
There isn't a way of doing it via `SM69' unfortunately. I think the only solution is to create a script and call that.
I was going to suggest wrapping the statements in a SM69 command defined as a call to sh with parameters of -c 'cd <dir> && /path/to/command' but unfortunately that doesn't work. According to note 401095 wildcards are not permitted. When I tested, && was translated into a single &, causing the command to fail.
Would be good if you access this information using FM FILE_GET_NAME_USING_PATH (export the script name for which you want to find the physical directory).
The recieving path can be used in SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE.
Because the external commands I called were actually .bat files I solved this by putting the following expression at the beginning of each and every one.
cd /d %~dp0
This Stackoverflow question helped a lot actually.
Hallo everyone once again,
I did various searches but couldn't gind a suitable/applicable answer to the simple problem below:
On pgAdminIII (Windows 7 64-bit) I am running the following command using SQL editor:
COPY public.Raw20120113 FROM 'D:\my\path\to\Raw CSV Data\13_01_2012.csv';
I tried many different variations for the path name and verified the path, but I keep getting:
ERROR: could not open file "D:\my\path\to\Raw CSV Data\13_01_2012.csv" for reading: No such file or directory
Any suggestions why this happens?
Thank you all in advance
Petros
UPDATE!!
After some tests I came to the following conclusion: The reason I am getting this error is that the path includes some Greek characters. So, while Windows uses codepage 1253, the console is using 727 and this whole thing is causing the confusion. So, some questions arise, you may answer them if you like or prompt me to other questions?
1) How can I permanently change the codepageof the console?
2) How can I define the codepage is SQL editor?
Thank you again, and sorry if the place to post the question was inappropriate!
Try DIR "D:\my\path\to\Raw CSV Data\13_01_2012.csv" from command line and see if it works - just to ensure that you got the directory, file name, extension etc correct.
The problem is that COPY command runs on server so it takes the path to the file from the server's scope.
To use local file to import you need to use \COPY command. This takes local path to the file into account and loads it correctly.
I got the following error while starting JBoss from a command line prompt today:
'findstr' is not recognized as an internal or external command
Please google it, you can find a lot of answers. But do as below to fix it. Add the following value to Right Click My Compuer -> Advanced -> Environment Variables -> System Variables -> Select Path variable -> append the below value.
C:\WINDOWS\system32
It should work with that change.
As others pointed, issue is in wrong settings of PATH variable in Windows.
According to article this is most probably because some stupid installer wrongly modified PATH variable in Windows registry. Registry has 2 different string value types - REG_SZ and REG_EXPAND_SZ. Only the second one allows for expansion of %SystemRoot%.
So check your path by typing set path in command prompt. If you see unexpanded %SystemRoot% and other variables in Path, you are affected (PATH should show only plain directory names, not variables).
You need to edit Path variable in registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment. As it is not possible to change the type of key, save the path value somewhere, delete the key and re-create it with type REG_EXPAND_SZ. You need to logout for changes to take effect.
for me it works when I've coped findstr(from windows/system32) to wildfly/bin
Please go throught the simplest steps:-
go to C:\Windows\system32\ and copy findstr.exe file.
paste this file into the location C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\bin
Run your jboss again you will get out of this.....
Check to see if you %SystemRoot% is evaluating (type set path into a command prompt, you should not see %SystemRoot%, but instead that actual path). If your path variable's (user, or systems) first entry begins with an %(an environment variable) this can cause an issue.
To resolve this, simply swap this first entry with anything else in your path that does not lead with an environment variable.
You can also hard code the directory by replacing 'findstr' with 'C:\Windows\system32\findstr'. This is useful when using systems with restricted user permissions.
I have try to work with play framework but stuck with to run activator.bat file but solution is the same just copy file from windows/system32/findsr and past it to under stuck folder then run the respective file again.
thanks to andrewsiand Suryaprakash
Please beware that current Windows systems use a Capital "S" for the System directory, so:
C:\WINDOWS\System32
%SystemRoot%\System32
Omitting the capital S will result in a neglect of the line in the %PATH%
In my case (not JBoss related) the following helped to fixed this error.
Instead of:
SET path="%path%;C:\some\additional\path"
I used:
SET "path=%path%;C:\some\additional\path"
For IBM ACE solution for
'findstr' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
Go to the path C:\Windows\System32
Find the findstr.exe, copy it and then find the path where you bin file of your application is found. eg C:\Program Files\IBM\ACE\11.0.0.12\server\bin then past it inside the bin file
cancel the console of ace and re-open it.
Then run ACE toolkit command on ace console.
Then press enter, now it can open.
Okay this is and isn't programming related I guess...
I've got a whole bunch of little useful console utilities scattered across a suite of projects that I wrote and I want to dump them all to a single directory to make using them simpler. The only issue is that I have them all compiled in both Debug and Release mode.
Given that I only want the release mode versions in my utilities directory, what switch would allow me to specify that I want all executables from my tree structure but only from within Release folders:
Example:
Projects\
Project1\
Bin\
Debug\
Project1.exe
Release\
Project1.exe
Project2\
etc etc...
To
Utilities\
Project1.exe
Project2.exe
Project3.exe
Project4.exe
...
etc etc...
I figured this would be a cinch with XCopy - but it doesn't seem to allow me to exclude the Debug directories - or rather - only include items in my Release directories.
Any ideas?
You can restrict it to only release executables with the following. However, I do not believe the other requirement of flattening is possible using xcopy alone. To do the restriction:
First create a file such as exclude.txt and put this inside:
\Debug\
Then use the following command:
xcopy /e /EXCLUDE:exclude.txt *.exe C:\target
You can, however, accomplish what you want using xxcopy (free for non-commercial use). Read technical bulletin #16 for an explanation of the flattening features.
If the claim in that technical bulletin is correct, then it confirms that flattening cannot be accomplished with xcopy alone.
The following command will do exactly what you want using xxcopy:
xxcopy /sgfo /X:*\Debug\* .\Projects\*.exe .\Utilities
I recommend reading the technical bulletin, however, as it gives more sophisticated options for the flattening. I chose one of the most basic above.
Sorry, I haven't tried it yet, but shouldn't you be using:
xcopy release*.exe d:\destination /s
I am currently on my Mac so, I cant really check to be for sure.
This might not help you with assembling them all in one place now, but going forward have you considered adding a post-build event to the projects in Visual Studio (I'm assuming you are using it based on the directory names)
xcopy /Y /I /E "$(TargetDir)\$(TargetFileName)" "c:\somedirectory\$(TargetFileName)"
Ok, this is probably not going to work for you since you seem to be on a windows machine.
Here goes anyway, for the logic.
# From the base directory
mkdir Utilities
find . -type f | grep -w Release > utils.txt
for f in $(<utils.txt); do cp $f Utilities/; done
You can combine the find and cp lines into one, I split them for readability.
To do this on a windows machine you'll need Cygwin or some such Unix Utilities handy.
Maybe there are tools in the Windows shell to do this...
This may help get you started:
C:\>for %i in (*) do dir "%~dpi\*.exe"
Used in the dir command as a modifier to i, ~dp uses the drive and path of everything found in (*). If I run the above in a folder that has several subfolders containing executables, I get a dir list of all of the executables in each folder.
You should be able to modify that to add '\bin\release\' following the ~dpi portion and change dir to xcopy. A little experimentation should make it pretty easy.
To use the for statement above in a batch file, change '%' to '%%' in both places.
