Hwo to get a file under the folder with RID?

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

how can I get the file name XXX under the folder YYY, which has RID for example

1bczuzrejekwlt? Can I get this file like this way:

1bczuzrejekwlt/XXX

or

I have to change the RID 1bczuzrejekwlt to normal folder name /../YYY, and then concatenate /.../YYY/XXX.

Is there any documents to describe details?

thanks in advance!

Hi Liying

As far as what i understood from ur doubt is that, u have the RID of the folder YYY.

If u want to get the RID of the resource XXX directly u can use, /documents/YYY/XXX.extension directly.

Like for eg,

<b>RID pathRID =

RID.getRID("/documents/Setup Files/"fileName".txt");

IResource resource = (IResource) resourseFactory.getResource(pathRID,resourseContext);</b>

Now u can use <b>resource.getContent()</b> to get the contents of file.

Hi Liying,

U can have the RID of the folder also and can iterate thru all the resources in the folder which will be much more convinient i suppose

If ur req is that way, we can share the code for that...

Hi Liying,

 RID pathRID = 	RID.getRID("/documents/folderPath");
	ICollection collection =(ICollection) resourseFactory.getResource(
					pathRID,
					resourseContext);
	IResourceList resourceList = collection.getChildren();
	IResourceListIterator resourceListIterator =
	                               resourceList.listIterator();

                while (resourceListIterator.hasNext()) {
		IResource resource =	resourceListIterator.next();
                  //do some action here//
                  //u can check whether the resource is a folder by using 
                  //if(resource.isCollection()); here//
                 }

I'm not sure I understand the question.

Is it about the relation of names, as displayed by the UI, and RIDs?

Parts of the UI use the "displayname" property rather than the RID when available. But that doesn't affect access through RIDs at all.
