How to get sequence name in run time.

hi
I have several sub sequence called in the main sequence in TestStand. Those sub sequences have different sequence names, which i wanted to display by string indicator on the Labview Operator Interface. Is there a simple way to show the current calling sub sequence name during run time(run main).
thanks.

Hi,
The easiest way is to use the NameOf() function. In this case where you wish to get the name of the current sequence the syntax NameOf(RunState.Sequence) yields the name. I attach a very simple example also.

How to pass column name at run time in function.

how to pass column name at run time in function as parameter.
thank in advance
pramod patel

Hello,
Using dynamic sql you can pass column name to function. well I am not getting what you really want to do ? Please write in more detail. By the way I am providing one example here. see it uses dynamic sql.
Create or replace function fun_updtest (p_columnname_varchar2 in varchar2,
p_value_number in number)
return number is
v_stmt varchar2(500);
begin
v_stmt := 'update emp
set '||p_columnname_varchar2||' = '||to_char(p_value_number)||'
where empno = 7369';
execute immediate v_stmt;
return 0;
commit;
end;
call to this function can be like this..
declare
v_number number;
begin
v_number := fun_updtest('SAL',5000);
end;

How to get updated value at run time in oracle forms

How to get updated value form oracle database on a field in oracle forms 6.0 at run time if the same form is opened by multiple users and both have get the same maximum value if one commit the record then how other would get that maximum value with out exiting that form...

This issue is fairly common and Forms handles the situation by displaying the error, "Record has been updated by another user. Requery to see changes." if a user tries to update a record that was updated by another user.
If your data is in a base table block, you can check before you save by checking the value in the form against the database using the Get_Item_Property('<BLOCK.ITEM>',DATABASE_VALUE). You can compare the value returned by the built-in against the value in the field to see if they have changed. This could be a lot of work and a lot of network traffic if you are checking numerous items in your data block. Forms has a standard locking mechanism that will lock the queried record as soon as a user makes any changes. If another user queries and attempts to change the record locked by another user - they will receive a "Record Locked" message.

How to get application names currently running on Windows?

Hi Experts,
Please help me how do I get application names (tasks) currently running (as shown in Windows Task Manager-Application Tab) in Windows.
Thanks,
Deepak

Hi....
probably it's a unusual solution but you could try it....
Create a *.bat file call it test.bat .. Create it on your local machine or on your server folder..
PARAMETERS: DOSCMD(30) DEFAULT 'c:\test.bat' LOWER CASE.
call function 'GUI_EXEC'
exporting
command = DOSCMD.
Inside your test.bat file put this code..(it's a dos command to create a txt file containing the output of tasklist.exe command
tasklist > c:\test.txt
In your test.txt file you will have a list of tasks running on windows...
Hope to help...

How to Get Package Name While Running

Hi
i want to load Package Name to Table.
So any idea about ODI Ref Function to get Package Name.

Hi Nagarjuna,
You can get package name by doing following steps, as per my knowledge, scenario name and package name both are same in ODI (while creating scenario for package).
by the time you can retrieve scenario name as package name using below select query with selecting Work Repository schema in ODI variable
QUERY:
select SESS_NAME
from <%=snpRef.getObjectName("L","SNP_SESSION","D")%>
where SESS_NO = <%=snpRef.getSession("SESS_NO")%>
Steps:
1) create a project variable as Get_Package_Name and Data type as Alphanumeric, in Refreshing tab, type above select query and select work repository schema in schema (eg: create WorkRep logical schema in topology manager)
2) Add Get_Package_Name variable with refresh in package (before interface step)
3) Generate Scenario for package with same package name with version 001
When you execute the scenario you can retrieve the package name in Get_Package_Name odi variaable
Hope this may helps you

How to get sequence name and pass/fail status?

HI,
I need your assistance in order to achieve the following goal:
I have about 10 sub-sequence steps in the main sequence.
For those steps only, I'd like to print out in a window the name of the sequence and the resutl.
I meet dificulties since i have the sub-seq result, only after it ends. It means that i can print its status only in the following step.
is there a way around it?
I wish to be able to write all this information in the clean up of the sub-seq step.
Thanks
Rafi

Hi Rafi,
You will not be able to print the result of a subsequence call in the same step as the subsequence call, because both post-step substeps and post-expressions are run before the status is evaluated. As you mentioned, you can do this in the following step, or you can use the SequenceFilePostStep callback to specify some customized behavior to follow your sequence call steps. This callback will run after every step, so you would have to put some extra logic into this callback if you are using multiple step types.
So, are you trying to print the result of each subsequence call separately? How do you intend to display the status? Let me know if you have any other questions about how to implement this.

How to Use Table name at run time

Hi All
I have created a function that accepts a table name as a parameter and returns the maximam sequence number, but in my function body i can not write the parameter name as a table i.e.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION MAX_ID(TAB_NAME Varchar)
RETURN Number IS
max_id Number;
CURSOR curSalPoint IS
     SELECT MAX(EMP_NUMBER)
     FROM TAB_NAME ;
BEGIN
max_id:=0;
OPEN curSalPoint ;
     FETCH curSalPoint INTO max_id;
     CLOSE curSalPoint;
RETURN max_id
END
But it will give an error saying
(1):PL/SQL: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
for "TAB_NAME"
Any help would be appreciate ........

Yes, as i contcatinated table name with the original statement, so you can also continate fields' names with your statment and execute immediate the statement.
Sorry i forgot this statement in my function, to execute the statement you need to include following statement
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION MAX_ID(TAB_NAME Varchar)
RETURN Number IS
max_id Number;
query varchar2(200);
BEGIN
max_id:=0;
query:=null;
query := query || 'select max(empno) into max_id from'|| tab_name;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE query;
RETURN max_id;
END;

Reading from a file. How to ask the user for file name at run time????

I have the code to read from a file but my problem is how to prompt the user for the file name at run time.
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.util.InputMismatchException;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class FileRead {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        Scanner scan = null;
        File file = new File("Results.txt");
        String number;
        try {
            scan = new Scanner(file);
            while (scan.hasNext()){
            number = scan.next();
            System.out.println(number);}
        catch (FileNotFoundException ex1){
            System.out.println("No such file");
        catch (IllegalStateException ex2){
            System.out.println("Did you close the read by mistake");
        catch (InputMismatchException ex){
            System.out.println("File structure incorrect");
        finally{
            scan.close();}
}Any hints would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

I have read through some of the tutorials that you have directed me too and they are very useful, thank you. however there are still a few things that i am not clear about. I am using net beans 5.0 I have placed a text file named Results.txt into the project at the root so the program can view it.
When I use the code that you provided me with, does it matter where the file is, or will it look through everywhere on the hard drive to find a match?
This code compiles but at run time it comes up with this error
run-single:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: NamedFile
Exception in thread "main"
Java Result: 1
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 3 seconds)
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.*;
class NamedFileInput
public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException
    int num, square;
    // this Scanner is used to read what the user enters
    Scanner user = new Scanner( System.in );
    String fileName;
    System.out.print("File Name: ");
    fileName = user.nextLine().trim();
    File file = new File( fileName );     // create a File object
    // this Scanner is used to read from the file
    Scanner scan = new Scanner( file );
    while( scan.hasNextInt() )   // is there more data to process?
      num = scan.nextInt();
      square = num * num ;
      System.out.println("The square of " + num + " is " + square);
}his is the code that i used. It is the same as the code you posted for me (on chapter 23 I/O using Scanner and PrintStream) Sorry im just really stuck on this!!

How to get Sequence File Name ?

Hello everybody !!
I'm using TestStand 3.1 and i would like to get sequence file name. I've tried to use NameOf() function, but without success.
Of course, I've searched previous posts about the same question, but nothing works.
Is there someone able to tell me how to get sequence file name ?
Thanks a lot.
MrOrange

MrOrange,
first of all, the solution i will present only works for saved sequence files.
you got all information you need within TestStand itself, just browse for RunState.SequenceFile.Path. here you can find the filename. but the path of the file is also included in the string, so this is a part you have to get rid off.
you can use statements to extract the filename from the path. just search the string for the last occurence of "\\" (searchinreverse!) and then you can retrieve the right() part of the path. beware that right() needs the number of characters you want to extract, not the startindex!!
hope this helps,

MIGO( (good receipt,Transfer pos how to to get serial number at run time

Hi Experrts:-
I need to change the status of serial number (equipment number ) during Migo (good receipt,Transfer posting).
I have checked all the user exits and number of badis but i am not getting serial number at run time if i get serial numbar
in exit od badi i will change the status
I have used following badi:-
MB_DOCUMENT_BADI
MB_MIGO_ITEM_BAdI
Thanks

Hi Dilip,
If I am correct you are taking about changing user Status at device level (serial number)
you can set the user status through status profile (Tcode OIBS for particular status profile).
within this, you can also set/ change the status, if particular business transaction is executed (for e.g. good receipt, Stock transfer)
Please check if you are using status profile in your case, if not create one, by this way i think you can able to map the requirement.

Update step limit name at run-time

I need to run through some test steps in a TestStand sequence multiple times. This wouldn't be a loop on a single step or group of steps but probably a goto a label "for" loop in TestStand. BTW, TestStand 2.0.1 calling code from a LabWindows/CVI DLL via the standard prototype adapter. Each iteration I need to have the test step limit names be updated with a different suffix. So step1 might have results0 and results1 and on the 2nd run results0 would be renamed to results0b. How do I update the limit names, at run-time, from a LabWindows/CVI function? I.e. the first test in the sequence's Main would update the steps below it to update the suffix. I started down the path of using TS_SeqContextGetProperty to get the sequence handle
TS_SeqContextGetProperty( testData->seqContextCVI, &errorInfo, TS_SeqContextSequence, CAVT_OBJHANDLE, &seq_hndl );
then using TS_SequenceGetNumSteps( seq_hndl, &errorInfo, TS_StepGroup_Main, &num_steps ) to determine the number of steps in the Main tab.
Enter a for loop:
TS_PropertyGetValString( testData->seqContextCVI, &errorInfo, buf, TS_PropOption_NoOptions, ( char ** )&rslt_name ) with buf as "Sequence.Main[0].Result.Measurement[0]" errors out with an invalid name message. The idea is to get this value, update it based on the iteration in TestStand ( this is already acquired and working ), and then set the value back. Then, move on to the next step and so forth.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

So, I tried the example and it works but only for a single step. I've tried two options: 1. having a single step that programmatically changes all the result names in all the other steps in the sequence. 2. having each step update the result names itself. For thought 1 the loop would run and the changes would occur but when the function was exited I'd get an exception from TestStand. No real information in the details as it looked like a memory corruption error. I then examined the details of what occurred and tried more experiments. If I had the loop have more than 1 iteration this behavior occurred. If I comment out the set function it still occurs. Then, for thought 2, it works like a champ on all the steps until I loop back to the top of the sequence. Then, on the first step ( 2nd time through ) it bombs out.
Attached is the code for the 2nd possible solution.
Does anyone know what the problem is or if there's a way to do this?

How to get the name of current monitor?

I have a script which is used to get some application data. The script take parameters such as "LOB" so it can query data for different department. When it found something, it raise an event in event log.
Therefore this script is used by several different monitors. Each monitor calls the script by passing different parameters. To better understand the event was created by which monitor, I want the script can get the name of monitor which calling it and they
list it in the event log too.
Currently, I am passing $MPElement$ as one script parameter so I can get the monitor's GUID. Then get the name by running powershell command. Is there an easier way to get the monitor name? Thanks!

The best way to do this is to put the monitor name as a property bag in the script and pass that to your event details. Otherwise, we're looking at querying the database each time the monitor generates an event, and this is overhead that is really not
necessary. The other option, which is just even worse in terms of performance, is to use powershell to query the SDK for the monitor name. Both of these options are not going to be a good solution, because now you need to implement action accounts that can
either query the database or the sdk.

KSLD how to specify kernel name when run ksld command on host

I am trying to use KSLD v1.0 and I could not reproduce similar result shown on KSLD User Guide. I followed almost everything on KSLD User Guide except I don't know how to specify kernel name when running ksld command. Here is what I have tried.
#ksld -t debug /ksld-space/slo8/proto/root_sparc/platform/sun4u/kernel/sparcv9/unix 99
I can only get unix and krtld read in. (ksld_dbx)modules could not show any modules *.o
When I use this
#ksld -t debug /ksld-space/slo8/proto/root_sparc/platform/sun4u/kernel/sparcv9/genunix 99
then I can only read on genunix.
Example on KSLD User Guide use unix.281, what is unix.281 created or obtained from target.
I noticed some SUN Tachnical Support Guru are online to answer questions, thank you for your quick reply.
