Mapping Template : Loosely Coupled or hard Coupled

Hi All
            I m using mapping template for graphical mappng. I have the following doubts:-
     1. Whether the mapping template is loosely coupled or tight coupled , i mean whether it picks the template at run time or the fields are filled one time only.
     2. If we use the mapping template and afterwards do some changes in the mapping template then whether the changes gets reflected in the mapping program or not?
      3. Can we change some fields of the mapping templates used in the mapping program after impoting that template? ( Here changes means changes in the mapping program )
     Regards
         Amit

hi,
>> Whether the mapping template is loosely coupled or tight coupled , i mean whether it picks the template at run time or the fields are filled one time only.
i dnt know whether this is a standard term or not but in these terms i think it is " tight" coupled.
>> If we use the mapping template and afterwards do some changes in the mapping template then whether the changes gets reflected in the mapping program or not?
No changes dont get reflected automatically if u change the template after assigning it in a mapping program.
>> Can we change some fields of the mapping templates used in the mapping program after impoting that template
It becomes a complete separate mapping program altogether even if u use a template. template is only to save ur time of designing mapping it does not contain references at run time. u can change this mapping program at anytime u want.

Attemp to build loosely coupled WS using xsd:any & xsd:anyType?

Dear All,
i want to write a loosely coupled web service that allow
the server to evolve independently to the client. (main
purpose is to extend the service by adding more properties
in the request / response message)
i want to achieve the loosely coupled goal by adding
xsd:any or xsd:anyType to the request / response messages
(i.e. wsdl ComplexType). (just follow the normal XML
guideline).
i have try to write simple program with xsd:any (which
mapped to SOAPElement in JAX-RPC). And the result seems
good and can achieve my goal. ( i can consume the service
in java and .net without problem).
but later, i read some article, in the web, (like this: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/ws-tip-xsdcaution.html)
that clams it is better to use xsd:anyType instead of
xsd:any (as anyType is mapped to SOAPElement or java
object if server/client can deserialize it).
as far as i know, the support of xsd:anyType is not standardized / madatory.
could anyone tell me your comment about using xsd:anyType or xsd:any?
how about the support of xsd:anyType across different platform / tools?
xsd:anyAttribute seems not supported by jax-rpc, could you please comment on using this element in the wsdl? good or bad?
oracle will map this element to an oracle proprietary java object.
am i choosing the right way to achieve loosely-coupled WS? any other way?
some article claims to send request as xml doc. but it
seems that is not very convenient to server and client as
both sides need to write code for serialization /
deserialization.
why not use the existing automatic XML <--> java object provided by the jax-rpc standard?
Thank you very much

Hello,
Is your question related to very specific element of your message or for the complete message.
Using any/anyType even if powerful could be sometimes complex for Web Service Client developer to handle since the Java object (SOAPElement or Object) is not typed so doing late binding of schema force people to do the mapping themself any.
So before choosing this in a wide scope on your project think also to its impact for end user/developers, and I think you are on the good path, as you said anyType will recognize the object.
I am inviting you to also look at the Oracle Web Services Interoperability documentation.
and this article from SUN: Interoperability With Patterns and Strategies for Document-Based Web Services

Loose coupling transport in PI 7.0

Hi,
We are trying to implemet OTO.I am tring to do a loose coupling transport in PI 7.0 from DEV to QUA. I have created one workbench request in se09 and have exported my IR object. I can see my exported IR object in IR>Tools>Find transports. But Open transport organiser is disabled. Can anyone tell me why is it disabled and how to resolved it?
I feel configuration is not proper. Can any one tell me, where the configuration would be wrong.
Please also send me step by step procedures (links) for implementing OTO

Loosely coupled systems

Hi All,
Sorry to ask this question.but i need exact definition and adavantage of loosely coupled system to undersatnd client the usage of XI in this concept.
One more question same like above.
They are asking interdependency of exchanges , when exists and if not implemented through XI may cause error handling very difficult, how can u achive this in XI.
Though i have some view on the above questions I'm expecting live definitions and usage of above advantages.
Regards,
venu.

Hi Venu,
Its better if you think of the concept of loosely coupled systems in a "Before" & "After" kind of approach. To make it simple,
1. System A & System B are a part of your integration landscape.
2. Before introduction of XI (for that matter any similar functionality product), these system integrate with each other making peer to peer connections.Say System A copies a file abc.txt into a folder of System B and vice versa for response messages if any.
3. After introduction of XI, you now leverage onto the integration capabilities of XI. So system A which had to handle copying of file abc.txt to some folder of System B now just has to ensure that it makes the file available to XI which in turn will connect to System B and send appropriate data in desired format.
In this way the two systems which were tightly integrated with each other now are loosely coupled with each other.XI can also take care of any specific requirements of polling periodically , format conversion and many other.

How to create loosely coupled transaction branches with DBMS_XA ?

Hello,
I use DBMS_XA to start several sessions in the same database instance participating a global transactions. The local transaction branches are tightly coupled.
Do you know a way (Oracle 11.2) for the branches to be loosely coupled by using dbms_xa in one-only instance ?
Best Regards,
Gregory

For non XA datasource create a JDBC Connection with data source class
oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource
For xa datasource create a JDBC connection with data source class

Are WTC transactions loosely coupled?

Hello,
I am looking for a confirmation that XA transactions between Tuxedo and WLS (using WTC) are only loosely coupled.
I cannot find much details on how WTC handles transactions from and to Tuxedo.
On the Tuxedo side, it is stated clearly that transactions accross domains are loosely coupled. Since Tuxedo and WLS instances are in different domains, I am assuming that transactions between Tuxedo and WLS have the same constraints as Tuxedo inter-domain transactions. Unless WTC were to optimize such transactions.
The specific challenge we face is as follows (using Tuxedo 10.0, WLS 10.3, Oracle 11g):
1) A Tuxedo Corba App starts a transaction and does some work.
2) The Tuxedo Corba App calls an EJB service in WLS.
3) The EJB service does some work and updates a record in the Oracle DB.
4) The EJB service returns control to the Tuxedo Corba App.
5) The Tuxedo Corba App selects the same record that the EJB updated.
6) The Tuxedo Corba App does some more work, and the commits the transaction.
The problem is that in step (5) we don't see the update that the EJB made. If we replace the select in step (5) with an update, the update times out because the record is locked. However, the global transaction commits or rolls back correctly on both sides. This indicates that the transaction branches in Tuxedo and WLS are loosely coupled.
Roger

Across Tuxedo /Domain the transaction is loosely coupled. WTC is subjected to the same limitation. So you are correct, those XA transactions between Tuxedo and WLS are loosely coupled.

Tightly and Loosely coupled scenarios

Hi Experts,
Could you please provide a example for Tightly coupled and Loosely coupled scenarios from SAP Platform?
How to do the below scenarios from SAP platform?
1. Tightly coupled (Non-SOA):
    Business Services : I have to create RPC encoded style webservices.
    Business Process : I have to call other platform RPC encoded style webservices (More than 2 webservices).
2. Loosley coupled (SOA):
    Business Service : I have to create Document literal style webserivces
    Business Process : I have to call other platform Document literal style webservices ( More than 2 webservices)
Please provide the input to do the above scenarios from SAP platform and please inform me which tool/component I have to use do the scenarios.
Thanks & Regards
Sara

Hi Sara,
Can you please elaborate your question in detail .
1) Web Services are always examples of loosely couples architecture, either its document style or RPC style and whether you are creating WS or consuming WS.
Tightly coupled architectures were those whose business logic layer and presentation layer were tightly coupled and reusability or scalability was a problem
If you have user interfaces involved in your business process, then you should go for CAF( Composite Application Framework) to define a business process using VC, WebDynPro or Adobe Forms as UI.
If it doesn't involve any user interaction, then you can go for ccBPM of Netweaver-PI to automate the process.

Using a Singleton Mediator to provide loose coupling

I need to discuss the pros and cons of using a singleton mediator to provide loose coupling between component implementation classes.
Suppose you are building a SE or a BC where an endpoint is defined upon a SU deployment. In this scenario, you will end up finding out that the Component, ComponentLifeCycle and ServiceUnitManager implementations should know each others instances. I can figure out these solutions:
-     Use tight coupling
-     The component implements the three interfaces (or two of them and associates the third)
-     Use a singleton mediator to hold the instances
-     Use a third party solution, like Spring's ApplicationContext and ApplicationContextAware contracts
-     Some other solution I didn't think of (the scenario has to be more specific)
Assuming the scenario as described above, I prefer the third solution.
I appreciate your opinions.
Hossam Karim

When you evaluate the JBI implementations available, you will notice that each one has built a less abstraction layer over the JBI component contracts in order to simplify its subsequent tasks. As a component builder, you would either reuse one of these layers and get tight with a specific implementation, or start writing your own.
I recently proposed a simple framework to my team; you can find a class diagram here (http://www.gaiati.com/products/emee/framework.png), it has the following elements:
�     AbstractBootstrapAdapter: Simple adapter for the Bootstrap interface
�     ComponentApplicationContext: Provides a Spring based Application context for this component, the context beans should be loaded upon component initialization. An instance of this class will be available to all classes or interfaces that extend the ApplicationContextAware Spring interface. All classes and interfaces on the previous diagram that associate a ComponentApplicationContext instance (applicationContext) implement the ApplicationContextAware interface. One exception is the AbstractComponentAdapter class, because it actually creates the instance.
�     AbstractComponentAdapter: Adapter for the component and lifecycle contracts. Upon initialization, this class creates a ComponentApplicationContext instance, and uses the beans to configure itself, the class recognizes other framework contracts and able to communicate with them.
�     AbstractMessageListener: Consumes this component's DeliveryChannel message exchanges, and fires a handling trigger.
�     DeployedEndpoint: Represents an endpoint that was deployed using a SU
�     DeployedEndpointConfiguration: Holds the configuration needed by a DeployedEndpoint instance
�     DeployedEndpointTarget: Represents the target JBI specific address that a DeployedEndpoint instance should route the messages to.
�     GenericMessageListener: Handles the trigger fired by the AbstractMessageListener, delegating the work to an instance of the DeployedEndpoint interface
�     GenericServiceUnitManager: Handles GenericServiceUnit instances
�     GenericServiceUnit: Acts as a proxy and encapsulates a DeployedEndpoint instance
�     AbstractDeployedEndpointFactory: An abstract factory for creating DeployedEndpoint instances using DeployedEndpointConfiguration instances
Yes, I ended up using Spring, and you are right, it might not be appropriate to attempt to separate the interfaces, may be I misunderstood or was mislead by Open-ESB implementation of the SOAP and file binding components.
It is true sometimes you can have "personal taste", but most important is to achieve best practice.
Finally, I hope the specification in its next versions, would provide us with a best practice framework or proposal, instead of so much choices.

Pesky loose coupling question

Hey guys,
I have 3 files: main.mxml, registration.mxml, and
update.mxml. The registration is a custom canvas component with a
datagrid, and the update is a popup activated by clicking the
datagrid. I understand how to dispatch custom events, but I'm
having trouble dispatching from popup back to main.mxml where my
remote code is located. I can successfully dispatch objects with a
custom event from reg component to main. What am I doing wrong?
Should I just add a remote command in the registration component
and run a function in the registration? Doesn't seem like loose
coupling to me?

If your registration component is instantiated in main and
you dispatch an event that bubbles from registration to main, then
bubbling works. But forget about bubbling when dispatching an event
from a popup to any other component. You can do the following:
If you use a model (with Cairngorm, PureMVC ... or simply
Singleton), you can have an object in your model that extends
EventDispatcher and serves as a message target.
package com.mycompany.core.model
import flash.events.EventDispatcher;
// This class only serves as the target for messages that
concern objects that are not
// in the display list or that are in the display list but
cannot be reached by event bubbling
public class MessageTarget extends EventDispatcher
public function MessageTarget()
In your model:
// Message target
public var messageTarget:MessageTarget = new
MessageTarget();
In any component interested in some messages (e.g column
visibility) dispatched on the message target :
// Add event listener for column visibility change
this.model.messageTarget.addEventListener(ColumnVisibilityChangedEvent.COLUMN_VISIBILITY_ CHANGED,
this.onColumnVisibilityChanged);
Then, you can dispatch an event from anywhere that can be
listened to anywhere:
// Send Column Visibility Changed event
this.model.messageTarget.dispatchEvent(
new
ColumnVisibilityChangedEvent(ColumnVisibilityChangedEvent.COLUMN_VISIBILITY_CHANGED,
false, false));

Data Mapping Templates for NON-RTA Systems

Hi all,
I'm designing n extractor for my NON-SAP System.
I've been reading the Appendix B: Data Mapping Templates for Non-RTA Systems from Configuration Guide - SAP GRC AC 5.3.
I have a couple of questions regarding the size of two fields in table ACTION PERMISSION OBJECTS TEMPLATE
Is correct the size that the documents says about fields:
ACTION (document says it's 20 but in other tables is 50)
PERMISSION (document says it's 10 but in other tables is 100
ACTVT (document says it's 10but in other tables is 50)
Thank you in advanced.

Hi Luis,
Yeah i will follow the recomendations but i'm updating some files to RAR and i've seen another kind of inconsistency such as in the table User File Template. Recomendation says that both FNAME field and LNAME field are 50 size each one but in my case i can update a FNAME 51 size and a LNAME 49, i mean between FNAME and LNAME it's 100 size.
Cheers.

Mapping Templates

Hi everybody.
I´ve got a doubt about mapping templates.
I have 4 mappings that are basiclly the same. Ive created a template and I use it in the 4 mappings.
But I find this problems:
There are fields that have differents mappings in the 4 mapping so I´ve gone to the mapping and have modified the mapping for this fields.
But when a mapping for a field that is mapped the same in the 4 mappings changes If I modifiy de mapping template and reimport de template in the 4 mapping then I´d lose the especific mappings in each mapping.
Is this possible to solve anyway?
Regards

If I modifiy de mapping template and reimport de template in the 4 mapping then I´d lose the especific mappings in each mapping.
First step should be import the template and then only you should perform specific mapping. Reimporting will always remove specific mappings. You don't have any choice there.

How to remove a Mapping Template from a mapping

Hi,
I used a mapping template to map some of my fields and since I applied it I get some strange behavior in the editor.
I try to use the "Display Queue" option on a simple one-to-one mapping and I get a blank message from the editor.
The "Processing Log" windows pops up but it is always empty. The "Display Queue" dialog also shows as empty.
I delete the mapping template but I still get the same behavior.

Problem with empty context.

Error in Mapping Template

Hi to ALL
I have a Mapping Template that worked fine, so I changed (Writed an UDF) and actived it works correctly. But when I open it againg show me an error java.lang.NullPointerException now the mapping is empty and don't show antyhing no source and target . Only can See the description of the mapping no more else.
Can you help me?.

Hi Luis,
I also had the same problem.
You might have something wrong with your UDFs.
Unfortunatelly your mapping is lost.
Re do it again and please check that your UDFs are correct. And if you don't find anything try removing any reference to the UDFs, save and activate.
That might let you open the mapping again.
Later you can use your UDFs one by one to check which one is giving you that problem.
Hope that helps.
