Getting UWL workitem count in WD 4 Java Application

Hi,
Our team is trying to get the UWL workitem count that appears on the Tasks tab in a webdynpro for Java application . Is it possible to get the count .i.e. (New Workitems)/(Old Workitems) in a Webdynpro for Java application?
Thanks
Aditya

PLEAAAASE!!! somebody help us out with this one, we really need to get this done, and given the lack of responses this has got so far, I think it might not be possible at all.
Just some thoughts on the subject, anyway.
When creating the UWLcontext, you need to set a user for it (e.g. context.setUser( ) ), so does that mean that I will never be able to get the UWL task list/count for more than one user at a time? and does that also mean that, if a user is set to the UWLContext, in order for it to work, it needs to be authenticated with an ongoing session at the time of execution?
Again, please, these observations might or might not provide additional help in order to resolve this issue, but at least got to try something...

Getting UWL task count for all users in a role.

Hi.
I recently posted a question regarding a very similar issue, but I haven't got any response yet. I think my question might have been somewhat poorly phrased, so I will try to do better at explaining what we need.
We have a number of processes, most of which need to be dynamically assigned to a user when created. The way we want to assign those tasks is by executing a WebService which would receive a role name and get all the users for that role. Then, using the UWL API, it would check how many tasks each of the users have in their UWL, and return the UserID for whoever has the least tasks. I haven't been able to get this to work. I keep getting Logged in users context or session doesn't exist Exception.
Please, any help on this will be greatly appreciated.
Currently working with SAP NWDS 7.1 SP05 PAT0005

Hi,
Thank you for your response, however, that's not what I need.
For you and anyone esle who might find this extra info useful...
I know how to get a user's role(s), and how to get the users in a role.
I also know how to assign a task to a specific user dynamically.
Using the UWL API, I know how to get the tasks (or items) in a user's UWL from a WD application, I need to do that from a WebService and using pretty much the same code, with the necessary adjustments, I can't get it to work.
Furthermore, I'm able to get the UWL tasks for ONE user, that user being the one I log into the application with. For example, if I write code to get the tasks for user testUser1, I need to log in with testUser1 to get it to work, if I log in with any different user or make it a non-authenticated application, it won't work.
Again, help on this is much needed and will be appreciated.

Hardware identification using Java-application

Hi,
please help me! I would like to get some hardware-specific information using a Java-application? Is it possible?

Probably not, in pure Java. Depends on what the "hardware" is that you had in mind.

Obtaining Current dialog in a nonfocused Java application

I am trying to get the current/top dialog in a java application regardless of whether it is active or not. If the application is active I can use the keyboard focus manager. However, if the application is not active and a background thread caused an exception for instance I want to make sure that the exception dialog is shown with the previous current dialog as its parent.

You can check if current user is member of role.
import the com.sap.security.api
then extract the IUSER
IWDClientUser wdClientUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
com.sap.security.api.IUser sapUser = wdClientUser.getSAPUser();
then check if is member of role
IRole theGroupcom = UMFactory.getRoleFactory().getRoleByUniqueName(<yours>);
finally
if (user.isMemberOfRole(theGroupcom.getUniqueID(),false)) ecc ecc

Playing a Sound clip in a Java Application

Ive searched a bunch on google to find a way to play an audio file in java, ive found how to do this in an applet but this is not what i want, I need to get it to work in a normal java application, any help would be appreciated.

The methods that load an audio clip for you in the Applet class are static methods; iow you don't need an Applet at all, just use the (utility) methods in that class. Granted, these methods deserve a better, more neutral place.
kind regards,

How to get the FILE COUNT from File directory

Hello,
i have to develop a scenario like, get the file count from source file directory and validate whether the file count is 5 or not. if 5 files exist i need to process those 5 files to DB tables. if file count is not equal to 5 then i need to send a mail to customer that files are missed at source directory. (subject as files were missed at source directory and in content i need to display the file names exist at source file directory. So that missed file will be generated by the customer based on this mail).
Could you please let me know how to get the count of files from source file directory. if it is possible only with UDF please provide the Java code
Best Regards,
SARAN

Do these files have some fixed names?
Can you try to use the option Advanced Selection For Source File to make XI pick all 5 files in one shot?

Webdynpro java application in UWL

Hi Experts,
My requirement is we had one Java application , we need to link up this application into UWL , and every month end who is accessing that application that guys have to get alert for to fill that form
My question is is there any chance to link up this java application into UWL , please help on this issue or any possible ways is there.
Thanks
Renuka

Hi Renuka,
Have you had a look at the Javadocs? The API is listed here and could fullfill your needs. I have seen other customers build their own custom connectors to link to their own custom applications with the API documentation and coding:
http://help.sap.com/javadocs/
When you get to the main page, pick the version that you are working with, and then select Universal Worklist API's.

WD java application in UWL link has authentication problems !

Hi ,
I am facing a starnge problem in UWL. I am trying to open an WD Java application upon clicking of UWL workitem. In the WdDoInit() method I have RFC present in R3-HR system. but Rfc execution could not be done when I click UWL work item and it opens in a new window. When I execute same application from place like through an Iview, it works fine. I feel WD_MODELDATA_DEST tickets are not being passed .
for the work arond I made application prperty Authentication to true. When I opens for the first time , application hits rfc n fetch out data. but strangely on the second time onwards it prompts me for user authentication.
Kindly give me possible solutions .
Thanks
Abhay

Hi,
1. Have you done the all the visualization settings in SWFVISU?
2. If yes then did you re-register the server you are using?
2. Are you able to view the WDJ view while clicking the link in UWL?
and one more thing WdDoInit() will execute only once.
please check the above things

Getting result from a telnet command through Java

Hi,
I've been using a set of classes found here: http://javatelnet.org/
to do telnet through Java in a non-interactive mode.
However I've got a problem when retrieving the result of a command sent to the remote host: the classes read the stream until the prompt is encountered; my problem is I must execute commands on several remote hosts, and the prompt is not necessarily the same on all hosts.
Is there a simple means to establish a telnet connection through Java and retrieve the result of the commands?
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks again, this is a very good article
I see it is still the same strategy to get the result of a command : wait 'til the prompt is sent. Maybe there is just no other way to get it .
But as I don't know the prompt on the different hosts I have to query, this won't do it.
The article gave me an idea though : I only need to count the files in a directory on the remote host; until now I was trying to send the 'ls | wc -l' command by Telnet.
Maybe I can simply do it by FTP (retrieve the list of files, and then count the lines with JAVA).

How to get file line count.

Hey guys,
How to get file line count very fast? I am using BufferedReader to readLine() and count. But when dealing with big file, say several GB size, this process will be very time consuming.
Is there any other methods?
Thanks in advace!

What I'd do is you create an infofetcher, register a listener, implement gotMore() and have that scan for '\n'
Some might suggest getting rid of the listener/sender pattern or use multiple threads to make ii faster. This might help a little, but only if your I/O is super-duper speedy.
you are welcome to use and modify this code, but please don't change the package or take credit for it as your own work.
InfoFetcher.java
============
package tjacobs.io;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;
* InfoFetcher is a generic way to read data from an input stream (file, socket, etc)
* InfoFetcher can be set up with a thread so that it reads from an input stream
* and report to registered listeners as it gets
* more information. This vastly simplifies the process of always re-writing
* the same code for reading from an input stream.
* 
* I use this all over
 public class InfoFetcher implements Runnable {
 public byte[] buf;
 public InputStream in;
 public int waitTime;
 private ArrayList mListeners;
 public int got = 0;

 mListeners.add(fll);

 if (mListeners == null) {
 return;

Get estimated record count

for pagination, we want to show the total pages. the way is to get the total count,then divided by the record number per page. The problem is its too expensive to get the total count.
In pl/sql, we can get the estimated record count with
select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(null,null,'ALLSTATS LAST')); but my question is how to get this number from application code, like java or php.
Thanks,

Hi,
Though what you're trying to do can be achieved in three steps *(i)* importing of java.io.* and java.sql.* packages *(ii)* establishment of a connection using JDBC driver, and *(iii)* query execution, it would NOT be constructive for the fact that a SELECT statement (as stated in the above reply) will always be a part of the query sentence for the following reasons:
(a) When objects are executed in Java, the first statement that is compiled is a SQL statement.
(b) Parameters cannot be defined in SQL strings.
Hence, as per my understanding, you can either stick to the existing approach or modify it as per the defined standards and not customized ones.

Naveed.
