Exception in Service Mapping Tool

Hello,
I'm trying to use the Service Mapping Tool, but run into the exception "Parameter CH_CHANGE was not transferred" when executing the mapping. Does anyone have any insight why this might be?

Reverse mapping tool in 3.0.1 ignores "-schemas" option

I believe I have discovered a bug in the 3.0.1 version of the reverse

Note the first line of logging output here: the schema is listed as "all"
instead of the limited scope I had specified.
This run eventually crashes due to the fact that the account which I am
running the mapping tool in has access to thousands of tables, and thus
eventually the JVM runs out of available heap.
My workaround is to fall back to 3.0.0.

Thanks for the report. We noticed this ourselves a short while ago.
The bug will be fixed in 3.0.2.

Horizontal mapping & mapping tool

Hi,
Can MappingTool populate mapping data, given only jdo metadata?
Example follows:
<jdo>
<package name="com.bear.fi.tradehub.domain.test">
<class name="BaseJDO" identity-type="datastore">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="jdbc-class-map"
value="horizontal"/>
<field name="a" persistence-modifier="persistent"/>
</class>
</package>
</jdo>
// subclass SubOneJDO extends BaseJDO
<jdo>
<package name="com.bear.fi.tradehub.domain.test">
<class name="SubOneJDO" identity-type="datastore"
persistence-capable-superclass="com.bear.fi.tradehub.domain.test.BaseJDO">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="jdbc-class-map" value="base"/>
<field name="b" persistence-modifier="persistent"/>
</class>
</package>
</jdo>
When i run mapping tool on this metadata, i get table for SubOne created
and it has columns for a and b, as expected
However, mapping tool itself crashes with a null pointer exception and
fails to update mapping information in metadata.

LMS 4.0.1 - telnet from topology services map

On a LMS 4.0.1 :
I want to know what is the right way to change the telnet program on the campus mgr map (topology services map), when right-clicking a device icon and selecting telnet.
I would like to use a tool of mine, and not to launch a telnet command from the IE browser.
I changed the default telnet of Windows in the registry, but the program is still launched as a telnet URL in the browser and this is not what I would like to do.
If anybody has any clue ? thanx
Marc - CCIE 2700

With LMS 4.0.1 I use Java 1.6.
The Java Plug-in control panel is different (no way to configure the DCMSSH parameter).
And this parameter is used with LMS 2.5 or 2.6 as per the example in the link you provided.
are you certain it applies to LMS4.0.1 as well ?
Additionaly, I don't want to use SSH, but only Telnet.
Thnak you
Marc.

On Demand Business Intelligence/Self Service BI tools

Hello,
I wanted to first understand if "On Demand Business Intelligence" and "Self Service BI" mean the same. If not, what is the difference between the two.
In addition, i would like to know the tools that i could use addressing the above two needs. The tool should have features like charting etc (fancy stuff).., It should be easily integrated with web apps and not too costly.
Any thoughts
vinu

Hi Vinu,
The term 'On-demand BI' is open to interpretation, as are most of these 'buzz-words', but it is commonly accepted as meaning 'BI in the cloud' whereby an organisation can
reap the benefits of a BI infrastructure without being hit by the costs commonly associated with on-premise BI infrastructures. The on-demand BI capability is normally delivered via a subscription based model i.e. Infrastructure as a service
(IaaS).
Self-service BI relates to empowering subject matter experts or SMEs to convert the data that is available to them into reports, dashboards, and other actionable information products, whilst
reducing their immediate dependence on the IT department (who are often a bottle neck for ad-hoc, time-sensitive, reporting and analysis requirements).
Reports/dashboards created with self-service BI tools often get converted into corporate-wide BI reports/dashboards once their usefulness has been recognised by senior management. Self-service
BI tools such as Power Pivot, Power View, Power Query, and Power Map can be used with on-premise BI, 'BI in the cloud', or both. Even before Power Pivot, and other Power BI products, Excel could be considered a self-service BI tool since it enables
SMEs to create what are effectively 'decision support systems'.
A good example of 'On-demand BI' would be Power BI in office 365, since it allows businesses to have a BI capability without a large capital expenditure that is normally associated with this.
SAP also provide BI On demand.
Good examples of Self-service BI tools that come to mind are the Power BI offerings (Power Pivot, Power View, Power Query, Power Map), Tableau, and Qlikview.
My answer is certainly not definitive and it would be interesting to read how others in this forum interpret 'On Demand BI' and 'Self-service BI'...
Hope this helps,
Michael

Differentiating Between Windows XP and Windows XP Embedded with MAP Tool

Hi All,
I have a customer who has multiple Windows XP Embedded Thinclients. When he runs the MAP tool they show up as Windows XP devices. I have personally not seen this yet since he hasn't shared the MAP data yet but does anyone know if the MPA tool
can differentiate between Windows XP desktops and Windows XP embedded Thinclients or are they all lumped together? Does the MAP tool show for example versioning that might help differentiate? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When queried by MAP, the WMI service in the Windows XPe machines are reporting back as “Microsoft Windows XP Professional” and since MAP can only report what WMI tells it, that is what shows up in the reports. This is an artifact of Windows XPe because it
starts out as a full version of XP Pro and then each OEM can choose what parts they want to remove, if any. If the OEMs don’t modify the WMI class to show the product as XP Embedded, it will continue to show up with its original description of Windows XP Professional.

Business Object creation error: The service mapping is missing

Hi developers,
In my CAF 7.1, I have my business object "maintenanceRequest" with several attributes.
Persistency is remote. Permission check is disabled.
Create operation is mapped to the external service (enterprise service) createMaintenanceRequest.
The input fields are mapped, output fields are not mapped since create operation doesn't have any.
All the other operations are not mapped.
I have exposed as web service the operation "create",
I have generated, built and deployed the app.
When I try to run it from wsnavigator I get an error in the SOAP response:
com.sap.caf.rt.exception.CAFCreateException: The service mapping is missing
Please note that the ES works ok (e.g. from Visual Compose 7.1).
The ES was imported in NWDS 7.1 from service registry.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks, regards
Vincenzo

Hi Sampath, thanks for your helpful reply.
I followed the steps from saphelp, but I get errors.
I mapped my external service destination (an R/3-based Enterprise Service published in service registry) to:
- UDDI_DESTINATION (error: objectNotExist) [but the ES is correctly published in service registry]
- wsdl address in backend R/3 system (error: Deserializing WSDL stream failed)
how should the logical destination be configured?
Thanks a lot

Dto object mapping tool ?

Hellu,
I am looking for an open source object mapping tool like Dozer. (mapping one object to another existing object, so not dynamically like DynaDto does).
If anyone has a good advice, please let me know ?
I am not so crazy about Dozer, I use it but it has some strange behavior...
So I am looking for an alternative, but can't really find a good one :(...
thanx

Here's some free packages.
We're using Castor, there are few tools and the docs are not that good.
http://castor.exolab.org/
I'm researching this package at present, can't say much about it except that it appears to be as good as (and maybe better than) Castor.

What is difference between Service map iview and Workset Map iview

Hi Experts,
Can anyone tell me the difference between service map iView and Workset Map iView.
When I am creating these iViews, its seams both are same. I canu2019t find difference still, can anyone help me out of this
Thanks in Advance
Janardhan

Hi,
Service Map Iview:The Service Map iView is an ERP-specific variant of the portal Workset Map iView. It serves as a central point of entry and guided access to the services of SAP service modules such as the Manager Self Service (MSS) module, or the Employee Self Service (ESS) module.
Workset Map iview:A Workset Map is the equivalent of a site map, providing users with explicit information on the functionality that is available in a given workset. It is based on an iView, and serves as a central point of entry and guided access to the contents of a workset.
if you want to more info pls go thr the below thread
Workset Map iView
i hope it will help you
Thanks,
Sreeni.

Bug in exists() function of XI Graphical Mapping Tool?

Hi!
If I connect a source field with the exists() function in XI Graphical Mapping Tool and the tag exists it returns TRUE, otherwise it returns FALSE, so everything works as expected.
But I have to connect a user-defined function with exists(). The user-defined function will either calculate a value or set Resultset.SUPPRESS.
If there is a value the exits() function returns TRUE, however if Resultset.SUPPRESS is set it does also return TRUE! This looks to me like a bug in exists() function. Shouldn't it always return FALSE if the input is Resultset.SUPPRESS?
Regards, Tanja

Hi Stefan!
> The exists() function checks, if a queue is empty.
> An empty queue is <b>not</b> represented by the
> SUPPRESS value.
> If inside a queue there is a SUPPRESS value, the
> queue is <b>not</b> empty.
Ok, so it's not a bug and the exists() function is working as expected.
> If you want the exist() function after a UDF, provide
> an empty queue, or easier: return the values "true"
> or "false" directly from the UDF.
Yes, that's how I actually solved the problem. The UDF was used at several places where the ResultList.SUPPRESS output was needed. So I copied the UDF and changed it so that the output was TRUE or FALSE instead.

Mapping tool creates new columns one at a time

Hi All,
I'm using Kodo 3.2.2 with MySql 4.1. I have a fairly large table (over
2million rows) representing one persistent class. I need to add several
new fields to the object, which will require a refresh mapping on the
database to add new columns for the fields.
It seems when I run refresh mapping on the database, Kodo is adding each
new field individually in seperate ALTER TABLE statements, rather than
adding all the columns in one ALTER TABLE statement.
With MySQL and large tables, this can really increase the time required to
refresh the mapping - I've tried with MSSQL and that database must handle
ALTER TABLE commands differently because it doesn't take a fraction of the
time that MySQL takes.
Is this a bug (I doubt it), but rather a feature improvement?
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Brendan

Thanks Abe for the reply - I've been meaning to look at the process of
creating SQL scripts to perform the refresh mappings on our databases.
I'll have a look at this process before we talk contracting!
Thanks,
Brendan
Abe White wrote:
Unfortunately, we don't have any immediate plans to optimize ALTER TABLEsince
it's not a runtime operation, and as you say most DBs don't have a problemwith
it. Also, note that the documentation shows how to get Kodo to create SQL
scripts rather than directly modify the DB; you could easily edit thescripts
Kodo generates to make them more efficient before piping the SQL to MySQLusing
its client app. (Note that Kodo 3.3 introduces the ability to generate SQL
scripts directly from the mapping tool, rather than having to take an extrastep
through the schema tool).
If getting Kodo to combine ALTER statements is important to you, you couldalso
contact [email protected] about contracting us to expedite this work.

XSLT mapping tool

Hi All,
I am abap consultant, so its difficult to write a XSLT mapping program.
Is there any XSLT mapping tool available on net to use free?
Which can take source XML & Target XML and upon doing graphical mapping
it generates the XSLT mapping program between source & target XML.
Regards

Rohan,
Is there any XSLT mapping tool available on net to use free?
Yes, Stylus Studio and Altova have free download-able tool for XSL Mapping.
Which can take source XML & Target XML and upon doing graphical mapping
it generates the XSLT mapping program between source & target XML.
I don't think there is any tool which will make use of graphical mapping to create an XSL Mapping.
But the point is, if you are creating a graphical mapping, why you need XSL?

Similar is the case with Java & ABAP mappings.
Now, How do i raise mapping exceptions in XSLT mapping (Java & ABAP)..?

You could use Java enhancement, but instead of just adding info to the trace, you could raise a real exception, using an ErrorHandler object. Ive successfully worked with the one below (not with XSLTs, tho, but I dont see why it shouldnt work.
import java.util.Map;
import org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
import org.xml.sax.SAXParseException;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.AbstractTrace;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.StreamTransformationConstants;

public class MappingErrorHandler implements ErrorHandler {
     private static AbstractTrace trace = null;
     public MappingErrorHandler(Map param) {
          trace =
               (AbstractTrace) param.get(
                    StreamTransformationConstants.MAPPING_TRACE);
     public void warning(SAXParseException exception) throws SAXException {
          trace.addInfo(
               "**Parsing Warning**n"
                    + " Line:    "
                    + exception.getLineNumber()
                    + "n"
                    + " URI:     "
                    + exception.getSystemId()
                    + "n"
                    + " Message: "
                    + exception.getMessage());
          throw new SAXException("Warning encountered");
     public void error(SAXParseException exception) throws SAXException {
          trace.addInfo(
               "**Parsing Error**n"
                    + " Line:    "
                    + exception.getLineNumber()
                    + "n"
                    + " URI:     "
                    + exception.getSystemId()
                    + "n"
                    + " Message: "
                    + exception.getMessage());
          throw new SAXException("Error encountered");
     public void fatalError(SAXParseException exception) throws SAXException {
          trace.addInfo(
               "**Parsing Fatal Error**n"
                    + " Line:    "
                    + exception.getLineNumber()
                    + "n"
                    + " URI:     "
                    + exception.getSystemId()
                    + "n"
                    + " Message: "
                    + exception.getMessage());
          throw new SAXException("Fatal Error encountered");

XSLT-Mapping Exception: Prefix not mapped:

Hi all,
I try to make a mapping using XSLT and get the exception: Prefix not mapped: ns0.
I wrote a simple xslt-script:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:ns1="http://me.home.com">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="//XIFCollection">
<Start>
<xsl:for-each select="ns1:XIFTest">
   <Found>
    <xsl:number format="1"/>
   </Found>
</xsl:for-each>
</Start>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Using this input XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<XIFCollection >
<ns0:XIFTest xmlns:ns0="http://me.home.com">
<IFControl>
   <MeldungsId>1</MeldungsId>
</IFControl>
<XTest>
</XTest>
</ns0:XIFTest>
<ns0:XIFTest xmlns:ns0="http://me.home.com">
<IFControl>
   <MeldungsId>2</MeldungsId>
</IFControl>
<XTest>
</XTest>
</ns0:XIFTest>
</XIFCollection>
In XML-Spy I get the following output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Start xmlns:ns1="http://me.home.com">
<Found>1</Found>
<Found>2</Found>
</Start>
What I expected.
But using XI or the XML-Toolkit XI30xslt I get the exception:
java.lang.Exception: XMLParser: Prefix 'ns0' is not mapped to a namespace.
I tried everything and searched all dokumentation but have no idea.
Anyone with an idea?
Thanks

Hi,
you need to chage as Udo said
but also the other ns0 one:
check this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:ns0="http://me.home.com">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="//XIFCollection">
<Start>
<xsl:for-each select="ns0:XIFTest">
   <Found>
    <xsl:number format="1"/>
   </Found>
</xsl:for-each>
</Start>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
BTW
it works in Stylus Studio now
