Java Agent generating file link - lotus-domino

In lotus manually you need to create a hotspot link if you want to send a reference to a file on a network drive.
Is it possible to send an e-mail programatically by Java agent with the same link?
(In lotusscript mimeentity can be used for this purpose, but I am not sure.)

Jake Howlett created a nice Java Class for sending HTML E-Mails which you can find here:
http://www.codestore.net/store.nsf/unid/BLOG-20100108-0129
This can be used to generate a HTML link to the file.
Otherwise you can use the RichTextItem class and write a file:// link . Notes Mail will display this a s aclickable hotspot link.
This is a modified sample code (originally from from the notes help) which works on my machine:
import lotus.domino.*;
import java.util.Vector;
public class JavaAgent extends AgentBase {
public void NotesMain() {
try { Session session = getSession();
AgentContext agentContext = session.getAgentContext();
// (Your code goes here)
Database db = agentContext.getCurrentDatabase();
Document doc = db.createDocument();
Item subject = doc.replaceItemValue("Subject","Rich text item");
RichTextItem body = doc.createRichTextItem("Body");
body.appendText("Link:");
body.addNewLine(2);
body.appendText("file://c:\\temp"); //ENTER PATH TO LINK TO HERE
// Save the document
doc.save(true, true);
doc.send("ENTER YOUR MAIL ADDRESS HERE");
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}}}
In my original post I had a mistake with escaping the \ of the path (you must use \)
Hope this helps.

How do I make a Register and Login example in Java and store the registration records without using database languages?

I'm trying to make a project which includes the Registration Form and Login Form that the program will check if the user is registered or not and will log in if the user is registered.
I'm using FileWriter to store data like usernames and passwords "separately"
try {
FileWriter fw = new FileWriter("C:\\Users\\Krayst\\Documents\\NetBeansProjects\\Cashiering and Sales System\\src\\"+fName+"\\Full Name.txt", false);
BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(fw);
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(bw);
out.print(fName);
out.close();
bw.close();
fw.close();
} catch(IOException no) {
System.out.println("Error processing data!");
}
And by the way, I created a folder to store specific data like The Full Name of the registered user so the data can be organized well
File regUser = new File("C:\\Users\\Krayst\\Documents\\NetBeansProjects\\Cashiering and Sales System\\src\\" + name);
if (!regUser.exists()) {
if (regUser.mkdir()) {
System.out.println("User Folder created");
} else {
System.out.println("User Folder not created");
}
}
The problem is I cannot access to these files because it has been "newly" created and written by the program so if I try to access its directory, it doesn't work. Plus, it has to be accessed to the other class because I created another class which is the Login JFrame and I'm using Netbeans IDE (The Registration Form is also a JFrame though). All I wanted to do is to read these Records (registration files) from another JFrame class so it can check in the Login Form whether the user is already registered or not.
I am sorry if I made some confusing statements and questions but I can accept any clarifications.
I'm a student and a beginner of programming so I would appreciate all the help from everyone. :)

JSF2.0: Show certain pdf page on load

I'd like to open a PDF in a new Page from JSF2, and display a certain page in this pdf on load. I have a kind of TOC in my jsf page, and want to jump from there to the page in the PDF directly.
What I know (this is not, what I need, just an example of giving adobe reader and other pdf readers the page I want to jump to):
Something like this will open the page (chose something from the internet):
https://www.cdc.gov/diabetes/pdfs/data/statistics/national-diabetes-statistics-report.pdf#page=10
The #page=10 makes the pdf plugin of the browser display page 10.
Requirements for selecting the PDF:
PDF is dynamically downloaded from a webservice according to an ID that must only reside in the ManagedBeans, since it's secret, and should not be passed to others (like Session ID...) (below given anser by me passes the ID in the GET-Parameter, which should not be done)
PDF should not reside in the Filesystem, sinc I don't want the handling of temporary files (below given answer by me actually utilizes PDFs on FS, with stream only it does not work)
Now my real problem: I have to change the URL beeing displayed/used in JSF, but can't use the normal way with and includeViewParams, because this will insert a "?", and not a "#" in the URL.
Also, I have a backing bean, that gets the content of the PDF from a backend service, based on some other parameters I'm giving, so a solution with would be cool, but I'm aware that this is probably not possible...
Does anyone have an idea, how to solve this?
I didn't include any code, since it doesn't work anyways, and I probably need a completely new way to solve this anyways...
Turns out, Primefaces has this already implemented (although the implementation has it's restrictions):
<p:media player="pdf" value="#{viewerBean.media}" width="100%" height="100%">
<f:param name="#page" value="#{viewerBean.pageNumber}"/>
<f:param name="toolbar" value="1"/>
<!--<f:param name="search" value="#{viewerBean.queryText}"/>-->
</p:media>
https://www.primefaces.org/showcase/ui/multimedia/media.xhtml
Restriction: Can't read from a stream, at least not very stable. Save your energy, and write a stream to a temp file, and set this filename dynamically. Not sure, whether this is complete, but you should get the idea:
import javax.faces.bean.ManagedProperty;
import javax.faces.bean.RequestScoped;
import java.io.*;
import javax.annotation.PostConstruct;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Paths;
#ManagedBean
#RequestScoped
public class ViewerBean implements Serializable {
#ManagedProperty(value = "#{param.page}")
private String pageNumber;
private File media;
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
try {
media = Files.createTempFile("car", ".pdf").toFile();
try (FileOutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(media)) {
IOUtils.copy(getStreamedContent().getStream(), outputStream);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
LOGGER.error(e);
throw new RuntimeException("Error creating temp file", e);
}
}
public StreamedContent getMedia() {
try {
return new DefaultStreamedContent(new FileInputStream(media), "application/pdf");
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
String message = "Error reading file " + media.getAbsolutePath();
LOGGER.error(message, e);
throw new RuntimeException(message, e);
}
}
}
If the pagename is not needed, you could use this:
http://balusc.omnifaces.org/2006/05/pdf-handling.html
Maybe if you can utilize outputLink for this you'll be lucky, but I ran out of time to test this option.
Found the (THE) solution; above answher mentions , but this cannot cope with #ViewScope beans, and sends many requests to the underlying bean for reading only one InputStream. I found this not acceptable for load reasons.
So here we go:
Create JSF page with <f:event type="preRenderView" listener="#{documentDownloadBean.writeIntpuStreamToResponseOutputStream}"/>
Put neccessary data for dynamic retrieval of the PDF into flash scope
redirect to above JSF page like so: return "document_search/view_pdf.xhtml?faces-redirect=true#page=" + page;
#ManagedBean
#ViewScoped
public class DocumentDownloadBean implements Serializable {
#ManagedProperty(value = "#{documentSearchBean}")
private DocumentSearchBean documentSearchBean;
public String activeDocumentToFlashScope(String page) {
Document document = documentSearchBean.getSelectedDocument();
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getFlash().put("document", document);
// everything preapared now, redirect to viewing JSF page, with page=xxx parameter in URL, which will be evaluated by adobe pdf reader (and other readers, too)
return "document_search/view_pdf.xhtml?faces-redirect=true#page=" + page;
}
public void download() {
Document document = (Document) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getFlash().get("document");
InputStream inputStream = getInputstreamFromBackingWebserviceSomehow(document);
FacesUtils.writeToResponseStream(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext(), inputStream, document.getFileName());
}
}
Calling JSF Page:
<p:commandLink id="outputText" action="#{documentDownloadBean.activeDocumentToFlashScope(selectedDocument, page)}"
target="_blank" ajax="false">
<h:outputText value="View PDF"/>
</p:commandLink>

How to open a password protected PDF using VB6/VB.NET?

I want to open and view a password protected PDF file in VB6/VB.NET program. I have tried using the Acrobat PDF Library but could not do it.
The reason I want to create a password protected PDF file is because I dont want the PDF file to be opened without the password externally i.e outside the program.
To open a password protected PDF you will need to develop at least a PDF parser, decryptor and generator. I wouldn't recommend to do that, though. It's nowhere near an easy task to accomplish.
With help of a PDF library everything is much simpler. You might want to try Docotic.Pdf library for the task.
Here is a sample for you task:
public static void unprotectPdf(string input, string output)
{
bool passwordProtected = PdfDocument.IsPasswordProtected(input);
if (passwordProtected)
{
string password = null; // retrieve the password somehow
using (PdfDocument doc = new PdfDocument(input, password))
{
// clear both passwords in order
// to produce unprotected document
doc.OwnerPassword = "";
doc.UserPassword = "";
doc.Save(output);
}
}
else
{
// no decryption is required
File.Copy(input, output, true);
}
}
Docotic.Pdf can also extract text (formatted or not) from PDFs. It might be useful for indexing (I guess it's what you are up to because you mentioned Adobe IFilter)
you can convert code to vb over the internet

Is there a eventlistener in eclipse core for "OnFileOpen"?

I am trying to write a plugin which parses the source code of any opened (java) file.
All I have found so far is IResourceChangeListener, but what I need is a Listener for some kind of "onRecourceOpenedEvent".
Does something like that exist?
The nearest you can get to this is to use an IPartListener to list to part events:
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getPartService().addPartListener(listener);
In the listener the partOpened tells you about a new part opening:
public void partOpened(IWorkbenchPart part) {
// Is this an editor
if (part instanceof IEditorPart) {
IEditorPart editor = (IEditorPart)part;
// Get file being edited
IFile file = (IFile)editor.getAdapter(IFile.class);
// TODO file is the current file - may be null
}
}

Trouble Attaching File Programmatically to Email in Windows Metro App C#/XAML using Share Charm

I'm simply trying to attach a file named Document.pdf in the DocumentsLibrary to an email using the Share Charm. My code below works perfectly on the Local Machine:
private async void OnDataRequestedFiles(DataTransferManager sender, DataRequestedEventArgs e)
{
List<IStorageItem> shares = new List<IStorageItem>();
StorageFile filetoShare = await Windows.Storage.KnownFolders.DocumentsLibrary.GetFileAsync("Document.pdf");
if (filetoShare != null)
{
shares.Add(filetoShare);
filetoShare = null;
}
if (shares != null)
{
DataPackage requestData = e.Request.Data;
requestData.Properties.Title = "Title";
requestData.Properties.Description = "Description"; // The description is optional.
requestData.SetStorageItems(shares);
shares = null;
}
else
{
e.Request.FailWithDisplayText("File not Found.");
}
}
But when I run the exact same code on a Windows Surface Tablet, I get the dreaded "There's nothing to share right now." on the right in the Charms flyout area.
Here's a little more background to help:
I'm not looking to use a File Picker...I know the exact file I'm looking for
I've enabled the Documents Library Capability in the manifest
I've added a File Type Association for pdf in the manifest
and yes, the file does exist and is in the Documents Library
an email account is properly setup in the Mail App on the surface
I can successfully send text emails from the Tablet...just not emails with attachments
Like I said, this works on my Win 8 Development Machine as expected...just not on the Surface. I'm wondering if the Surface has different file or folder permissions?
Thanks for the help...this is driving me CRAZY
I finally figured it out - the problem was that my Event Handler was async (so that I could use await to set the StorageFile variable).
I solved it by setting the StorageFile variable earlier in my code so that it was already available when the Event Handler was called.
I still have no idea why it worked on my development machine, but no on the WinRT surface...
The handler can be an async method. In this case, it is critical to use DataTransferManager. Please refer to the MSDN page specifically for this scenario. For your convenience, the code from the page is copied to here:
private void RegisterForShare()
{
DataTransferManager dataTransferManager = DataTransferManager.GetForCurrentView();
dataTransferManager.DataRequested += new TypedEventHandler<DataTransferManager,
DataRequestedEventArgs>(this.ShareStorageItemsHandler);
}
private async void ShareStorageItemsHandler(DataTransferManager sender,
DataRequestedEventArgs e)
{
DataRequest request = e.Request;
request.Data.Properties.Title = "Share StorageItems Example";
request.Data.Properties.Description = "Demonstrates how to share files.";
// Because we are making async calls in the DataRequested event handler,
// we need to get the deferral first.
DataRequestDeferral deferral = request.GetDeferral();
// Make sure we always call Complete on the deferral.
try
{
StorageFile logoFile =
await Package.Current.InstalledLocation.GetFileAsync("Assets\\Logo.png");
List<IStorageItem> storageItems = new List<IStorageItem>();
storageItems.Add(logoFile);
request.Data.SetStorageItems(storageItems);
}
finally
{
deferral.Complete();
}
}
It is critical to place the following statement before any async method is called:
DataTransferManager dataTransferManager = DataTransferManager.GetForCurrentView();
You only have half a second to get the whole job done (getting the file, attaching...etc.). If the half-second deadline occurs you'll get this "driving crazy" message. Consider implementing some resumable logic and replace the message with "the attachment is being prepared please try again in a few seconds" (or else).
Your WinRT device might be just slower than your development machine. The latter just does the job before the deadline...
