Thanks - tell me if I am wrong but it does not seem to be what I need. does this package have the capabilities of doing the following... I want to call a pl/sql procedure - I am not in any browser window and by calling this proc it will bring up a browser window with the given url.

Well, you should first test if your webservice is reachable with a simple WS - Client or a Browser - Plugin, then verify the respones of the web service and after that you can take further investigations on your problem domain. The error - message refers to a line in your function, obviously, but I can't see which line and because there is more than one call to sys.utl_dbws I don't see at what point the script fails. NULL - Pointer - Execptions usually indicate that a method was invoked on a variable which should contain an object reference but is NULL.

How to call a URL from forms ?

Dear All,
I would like to invoke / call a URL from forms. I know we can make a call Using Web.show_document. But this will execute in a browser.

hi,
here is a quick example : (data from url returns as a clob. you need to write it at db. and call from forms.)
FUNCTION Get_DataFromUrl(pUrl IN VARCHAR2,pProxy IN VARCHAR2,pData IN OUT CLOB) RETURN NUMBER IS
vRcv UTL_HTTP.HTML_PIECES;
vData CLOB;
eNoDataReceived EXCEPTION;
BEGIN
UTL_HTTP.SET_DETAILED_EXCP_SUPPORT(TRUE);
-- Get data pieces from Url
vRcv := UTL_HTTP.REQUEST_PIECES(pUrl,Proxy => pProxy);
IF vRcv.COUNT < 1 THEN
RAISE eNoDataReceived;
ELSE
-- Append varchar2 table data into clob variable
DBMS_LOB.CreateTemporary(vData,FALSE,DBMS_LOB.CALL);
FOR i IN 1..vRcv.COUNT LOOP
DBMS_LOB.WriteAppend(vData,LENGTH(vRcv(i)),vRcv(i));
END LOOP;
-- Copy local data into return variable
DBMS_LOB.Copy(pData,vData,DBMS_LOB.GetLength(vData));
DBMS_LOB.FreeTemporary(vData);
END IF;
RETURN SUCCESS;
EXCEPTION
WHEN eNoDataReceived THEN
RETURN FAILURE;
WHEN UTL_HTTP.INIT_FAILED THEN
RETURN FAILURE;

Calling a url from forms

Hi!
i have created a website using ARCIMS - (if you are not familiar with ARCIMS it is software that is used to create maps) I now want to call URL (website) from a button on my form. I have tried to use web.show_docuement and I am getting errors such as 'register failk'.
I was able to run this same URL succesfuly from my browser. any ideas please?!?

Kayla.
web.show_document() is the right buit-in to do this and it works the same as calling a URL from a Browser. if it says "register failed" (not sure if I am correctimng your error message the right way) then this does not look like a Forms error message but one coming from teh program you call. Please check teh URL that is composed before calling web.show_document(). Check for invisible characters added to it.

Urgetn - Can you call a url from a workflow?

Hey,
Does anyone know if you can call a url from a workflow?
Your urgent attention would be grateful.

I have done this in a form. You could put a manual action to call the form then display the url (Technical Reference 3-14)
<Field>
<Display class='Link'>
<Property name='name' value='Request
Group Access'/>
<Property name='URL'
value='user/processLaunch.jsp?newView=true'>
<Property name='id' value='Group Request
Process'/>
</Display>
</Field>
Hope this helps

Calling a URL from a Java Stored Procedure

Hi,
I'm trying to call a URL from a Java Stored Procedure in Oracle 8.1.7(Windows 2000). The ultimate goal is to call this stored procedure from a database trigger. The status of the object remains invalid in the database even after compilation and publishing without any errors. The code follows. Any suggestions/alternatives to accomplish this would be appreciated.
Java Stored Procedure:
CREATE OR REPLACE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "UPDATEATTR" AS
import java.net.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class UpdateAttr {
public static String testmain() {
ObjectInputStream is;
URL url;
String uri =
"http://www.yahoo.com";
try {
//calling the URL
url = new URL(uri);
URLConnection yahooConnection = yahoo.openConnection();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.err);
return "TEST_SUCCESSFUL";
Code to Publish it:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION setNewAttributes return VARCHAR2
AS LANGUAGE JAVA NAME
'UpdateAttr.testmain() return String';
Thanks in advance.
Ris

Small mistake in the previous post. The object still has a status of "INVALID" though. The Java stored procedure should actually read:
Java Stored Procedure:
CREATE OR REPLACE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "UPDATEATTR" AS
import java.net.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class UpdateAttr {
public static String testmain() {
ObjectInputStream is;
URL url;
String uri =
"http://www.yahoo.com";
try {
//calling the URL
URL yahoo = new URL(uri);
URLConnection yahooConnection = yahoo.openConnection();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.err);
return "TEST_SUCCESSFUL";
Code to Publish it:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION setNewAttributes return
VARCHAR2
AS LANGUAGE JAVA NAME
'UpdateAttr.testmain() return String';

How to call a mapping in a PL/SQL proc ?

Hi all,
I want to create a PL/SQL proc to call my mappings in the right order, and to make other operations the mapping don't do.
The mapping I want to call is located in the packages.
How can I call it ?
Thanks,
Nico

Hi Carsten,
Thank you for trying to help me.
I do have the "Main" method you are talking about, but this method need a parameter (called "p_status") that I don't know how to implement...
The mapping I create and I want to call needs no parameter, that's why I don't understand...
This is the beginning of the main proc of my mapping package :
PROCEDURE Main(p_status OUT VARCHAR2,
p_max_no_of_errors IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
p_commit_frequency IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
p_operating_mode IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
p_bulk_size IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
p_audit_level IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
p_purge_group IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL) IS
x_schema VARCHAR2(30);
x_audit_id NUMBER;
x_object_id NUMBER;
x_env wb_rt_mapaudit.wb_rt_name_values;
x_param wb_rt_mapaudit.wb_rt_name_value;
x_result NUMBER;
x_return_code NUMBER;
BEGIN
etc, etc....

Call external URL from ABAP userexit, capture data and return it to SAP?

My apologies if this question has been asked before, but I've searched for a few hours today and haven't found anything directly related to my question. Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide!
I would like to be able to make a call from an SAP userexit during Sales Order Entry in the VA01 transaction in the SD module to an external website, allow the user to capture some data in the external site and then pass that data back into the userexit where I can use it to populate internal tables, etc.
I'm completely unfamiliar with Web Dynpro programming, but this seems like a good place to start my search for a solution.
Does this sound like a problem that can be solved with Web Dynpro and what documentation or code examples should I reference to go about building such a solution.
I should also note that I'm hoping to build a solution that could be called from any userexit in R/3, SAP ERP, SAP CRM, etc. and would obviously need to learn about what dependencies to consider (ex: SAP GUI version, SAP product release number, Web AS release, etc.).
Eric

Thank you for the response. Let me provide some additional information.
The external application will be a Hosted Web page. It is not an SAP system.
The external application will be a web page served by a separate system outside of the company domain(shouldn't matter what the technology is I would think - but the web page will be hosted by a different company than the one calling the URL) that would appear as a web page in which the user will enter data, logic will be performed on that data and then some or all of the data would need to be passed back to the calling point in SAP.
For practical discussions it doesn't matter to me if the call in ABAP occurs in an SD userexit, in a custom report, in an HR screen or in a CRM business partner screen. There will be many places where this external application may be called from and I'm just trying to figure out how to call an external HTTPS URL and return data from that web page to the calling point in ABAP.
I hope that clarifies my question.
Thanks!
Eric

Is it possible to call a URL from a table entry

Hi Abap Experts,
Is it possible to call a URL when we double click on the record of a table
for example I have a table zmanifest in which if i double click on the tracking number(table field)
it should go to UPS website
Thanks & Regards,
Tharun.P

Hi
It depends on what you mean to do a doubleclick, i.e. where you want to do it?
If you mean a program created ad hoc, yes you can else I don't think

Calling browser/URL from the link on webpage

Dear Experts,
My requirement is, I have a webdynpro component, I need to add a link on particular view which calls another webpage(either in a new window or in same window) if I click on that.
To fulfill my requirement I used CALL_BROWSER FM.
The problem here is am getting dump from the FM.
Dump text:
Error in the ABAP Application Program
The current ABAP program "CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES======CP" had to be
terminated because it has
come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
Am getting this error from cl_gui_frontend_services=>execute (inside CALL_BROWSER)
Please guide me how to proceed here (I guess I should not use CALL_BROWSER since already am in browser).

To open a URL in a separate window you can use the following code,
data lo_window_manager type ref to if_wd_window_manager.
data lo_api_component type ref to if_wd_component.
data lo_window         type ref to if_wd_window.
lo_api_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
lo_window_manager = lo_api_component->get_window_manager( ).
CALL METHOD lo_window_manager->CREATE_EXTERNAL_WINDOW
EXPORTING
    URL            = 'http://www.google.co.in/'
    MODAL          = ABAP_FALSE
    HAS_MENUBAR    = ABAP_TRUE
    IS_RESIZABLE   = ABAP_TRUE
    HAS_SCROLLBARS = ABAP_TRUE
    HAS_STATUSBAR = ABAP_TRUE
    HAS_TOOLBAR    = ABAP_TRUE
    HAS_LOCATION   = ABAP_TRUE
RECEIVING
    WINDOW         = lo_window.lo_window->open( ).
Hope it helps!

Radhika.
