MaxL with DATAEXPORT and passed parameters

Have a MaxL script that is passed four parameters.
Within the MaxL script I am executing a DATAEXPORT calculation, not a calc script.
I want to use some of the parameters as part of the output filename. I have tried various combintaion of single quotes, double quotes, backslashes, etc. on the output filename but can't seem to come up with the right combination. Always seems to produce ERROR - 1242021 - (11) Syntax error near....
Any ideas, suggestions or am I wasting my time on this one?
Thanks,
Tom

Hi,
I don't think the DATAEXPORT command likes parameters but there is a way around it, it does accept a substitution variable for the whole path and filename.
If you create a sub var (in my example I have already created one called "ExpFile") then in your maxl script you can set the variable with the full path and filename and then call the subvar in the DATAEXPORT command
You could do it with something like
login $1 $2 on 'localhost';
alter system set variable ExpFile "\"E:\\Hyperion\\AnalyticServices\\app\\$3\\$4\\CY2010Data.txt\"";
execute calculation
'SET DATAEXPORTOPTIONS
DataExportLevel "LEVEL0";
DataExportRelationalFile ON;
DataExportOverwriteFile ON;
DataExportDynamicCalc OFF;
DataExportColFormat ON;
FIX("CY2010")
DATAEXPORT "File" "," &ExpFile "#MI";

Connecting Crystal reports with dashboards and passing parameters

Hi ,
Can anyone have any document on Connecting Crystal reports with dashboards and passing parameters.
I would appreciate for this.
Thank You.

How to open a page from a Form and pass parameters to the form on that page

I found a similar example on this forum, but it did not work for me:
declare
l_names owa.vc_arr;
l_values owa.vc_arr;
i number;
begin
PORTAL.wwpro_api_parameters.retrieve(l_names, l_values);
FOR i in 1..l_names.count
LOOP
htp.p(l_names(i) || ' ' || l_values(i));
END LOOP;
end;
By using this method i get the parameters for the Form, like the session ID, but not the parameters for the Page that the form is displayed in.
Another method I tried:
To open a Form from a Form and pass parameters works fine like this:
--In the After processing page PL/SQL event.
declare
v_id number;
blk varchar2(10):='DEFAULT';
Begin
v_id:=p_session.get_value_as_number (p_block_name=>blk,p_attribute_name=>'A_ID');
if v_id > 0 then
htp.formOpen('PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=2649500412&p_arg_names=_show_header&p_arg_values=YES&p_arg_names=ID&p_arg_values='||to_char(v_id),'post');
htp.formSubmit(NULL,'Upload Files');
htp.formClose;
end if;
End;
But I want to open a Page containing the Form instead of just opening the Form. Is this possible to open a Page and pass paramters to the page, and then let the form inside the Page access the passed paramters. The reason for this is that a Form cannot be based on a page template, or can it? When opening the form i want to keep the left menu, which I can if it is a page based on my template with the left menu.
Best regards
Halvor

Hi,
You can do this by calling the url of the page with the form. You can then use p_arg_names and p_arg_values to pass parameters. In the called form you can get the value from p_arg_names and p_arg_values and assign it to the form field.
You can call this code in the success procedure of the calling form.
declare
v_id number;
blk varchar2(10):='DEFAULT';
v_url varchar2(2000);
Begin
v_id:=p_session.get_value_as_number (p_block_name=>blk,p_attribute_name=>'A_ID');
v_url := <page_url>;
if v_id > 0 then
call(v_url||'&p_arg_names=id&p_arg_values='||v_id);
end if;
End;
In the called form in "Before displaying form" plsql section write this code.
for i in 1..p_arg_names.count loop
if p_arg_names(i) = 'id' then
p_session.set_value(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_ID',
p_value => p_arg_values(i)
end if;
end loop;
This code picks up the value from p_arg_values and assigns it to the form field.
Hope that helps.
Thanks,
Sharmila

Linking form and report and passing parameters

Is it possible to call a link with parameter from form to report? Let's say I have a form based on EMP table and when user clicks on DEPT_ID label I want to pass DEPT_ID as a parameter to a report showing detailed information about this department. All my attempts to do it were unsuccessful.
I've seen many questions like this in this thread and most answers refer to Portal FAQ document but there is NO information there on linking form forms to reports and passing parameters between them.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
null

This can be easily done. First open up two instances of your Portal. In one window, you will need to go into your component you wish to link FROM. In the other window you will need to go into your component you wish to link TO. In the component you wish to link TO there will be a moduleid. Note this somewhere. Then, you will see an area that says: "Call Interface: Show". Click on this. (In the window you are linking to.). In this window, you will see a bunch of stuff. At the bottom you will see a URL call. This is the call you need to use. At the top, it explains each piece of the URL call. Just subsitute YOUR appropriate information into the URL call. In the form you wish to link FROM, you will need to create a button. Just click on the green plus sign at the top of the screen (when in edit mode) and then declare it a button by using the Item Type drop down. Once you create this button, it will appear at the bottom, click on it and you will see an area to insert a Javascript. Click the onClick and insert:
get_field_name = getField(this.form,'COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE');
window.open('/pls/cc_prod/DAD_NAME.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=MOD_ID_HERE&p_arg_names=_sessionid&p_arg_values=&p_arg_names=COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE&p_arg values='+GETFIELD_NAME+'&p_arg_names=_COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE_cond&p_arg_values=%3D');
In the fourth tab, where it says, "....before displaying form" insert the following: (This will tell the form how to handle the getField function.)
htp.p('<script language="JavaScript1.3">
< !--
function getField(form,fieldName)
var objName = "";
var tmp = "";
var dAction = "";
var sel_idx = 0;
var cnt = 0;
var instance = 0;
var slicedName;
var fillData = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < form.length; i++)
slicedName = form.elements.name.split(".");
tmp = slicedName[2];
instance = parseInt(slicedName[3],10);
if (!tmp)
continue;
objName = tmp;
if (objName == fieldName)
return form.elements[i].value;
//-->
</script>');
I hope this helps.

Executing a program and passing parameters using ProcessStartInfo

I am trying to run an application and pass parameters from within a c# desktop application. It appears to attempt to execute but it doesn’t run and the exeProcess shows errors in the locals.
Here is the code:
ProcessStartInfo startBin2TextApp =
new
ProcessStartInfo(strNowRunThis, strDataFile +
" a");
startBin2TextApp.CreateNoWindow =
true;
startBin2TextApp.UseShellExecute =
false;          startBin2TextApp.WindowStyle =
ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
Process exeProcess =
null;
exeProcess = Process.Start(startBin2TextApp);
This is what is in the Arguments when Process.Start(startBin2TextApp) is ready to execute.
Arguments         "C:\\Users\\10065421\\Documents\\ab\\Working\\Projects\\Panel Explorer\\B640130A.DAT a"
After the line is executed, exeProcess shows an error in most of the attributes. For instance, BasePriority shows “exeProcess.BaePriority” threw an exception of type “System.InvalidOperationException”.
I ran this from the command prompt so I know it runs on this machine with the same parameters I am using in the code.
Any ideas?

Cant login with sap* and pass

Hi,
I created a new entry in SCC4 for new client 100 in nw2004s and now i saved them and tried to login with 100 client sap* and password as pass, but i am not able to login with this default password for client copy.

Surya,
In NW2004s by default the "automatic" SAP* user is not created. This is controlled by a parameter setting in the profile, which you can edit with RZ10. Open the instance profile, create parameter "login/no_automatic_user_sapstar" and set the value to 0. Save and activate the profile, restart your system, and now you'll be able to login with SAP* and pass.
After you finish the client copy, you may want to deactivate this parameter again, for security.

Calling a function and passing parameters via Variables

I've got an XML file that is loading in data and is calling functions.
I've figured out how to call the methods from classes with variables set from the XML file:
var functionToCall:String = xml.functions.func[0].to_fire.toString();
myClass[functionToCall]();
This calls the function perfectly.
I was wondering if there is anyway to pass parameters into the function as well through variables. Some functions may have no parameters, some functions could have 5... so the xml could be like this:
<functions>
   <func>
    <to_fire>function1</to_fire>
    <param>
     <value>true</value>
     <type>Boolean</type> 
    </param>
   </func>
   <func>
    <to_fire>function2</to_fire>
    <param/>
   </func>
   <func>
    <to_fire>function3</to_fire>
    <param>
     <value>false</value>
     <type>Boolean</type> 
    </param>
    <param>
     <value>My String Value</value>
     <type>String</type> 
    </param>
    <param>
     <value>10</value>
     <type>Number</type> 
    </param>
   </func>
</functions>
whats the best way to set something like this up?

how would I set something like that up?
in the class:
public function myFunction(_param1:String, _param2:Number):void {
then to call it, would ParamTypes be cast as an array or object or something?
var functionVariable:String = "myFunction";
myClass[functionVariable](??);
Or do I structure the XML file in some way to pass in the information?

Html:link submit and passing parameters

I need to submit the form when the <html:link ..... > is clicked/pressed and also need to pass parameters.
<jsp:useBean id="mapParams" class="java.util.HashMap"/>
<c:set target="${mapParams}" property="theKey" value="${theValue}"/>
<c:set target="${mapParams}" property="theKey1" value="${theValue1}"/>
<html:link href="javascript:document.myform.submit()" name="mapParams" >
<c:out value="${custItr.empName}"/>
</html:link>
When i click on the link getting javascript error which says "syntax error". when I remove the "name" attribute in <html:link> there is no error but I need to have the name attribute to pass the parameters.
How to do both the submit and passing of parameters using <html:link>? Your help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Parameters can only be passed like that to an actual URL. eg http://localhost:8080/myApp/showEmployee?id=123&dept=Sales
In this case, you are using the link tag to invoke javascript - not a url. URL Parameters don't apply to this string
If you are indeed submitting a form, I would suggest that you instead go with putting hidden fields on the form to submit the value.
Use <html:hidden>

Launching new database pages, and passing parameters to them.

The immediate reason I am investigating databases is to
enable me to automate my
photo album. I have developed a layout which I like
(see
http://www.corybas.com/Albums/New%20Zealand_05/Main_index.htm)
but at present the page for every photo is hardcoded. This is
very effective,
but also very tedious to set up, and difficult to modify. The
part I would like
to automate has two levels of indexes, and then the
individual photo pages.
Every page has three navigation arrows - a back arrow to go
to the parent index,
and left and right arrows to go to the preceding/following
index or photo.
I have a number of albums for different holidays, but they
are linked together,
so that effectively they all become one big album, which you
can traverse at any
level.
I think I can see how to set up the necessary databases, and
define the
appropriate pages, but the thing I still don't understand
(and which I don't
think is covered in David's book, other than by buying the
expensive Interakt
package) is how to make the navigation arrows launch the new
page, and pass the
necessary parameters to it.
I would also very much like to make the arrow keys on the
keyboard have the same
effect as the navigation arrows.
I would envisage a separate page (and probably database) for
each level. Each
page would be passed the number of the item to be displayed,
a pointer to its
parent, and possibly an item number for the parent. When a
left or right arrow
was clicked the new item number would be calculated and a new
page launched to
display it. If the next page was in a different sheet, or
even a different
album, a new parent would also have to be calculated. These
calculations could
either be done before launching the new page, or in the
preamble to the new
page.
Any suggestions as to how I should go about this?

Calling WebDynpro Application and Passing parameters

Hi,
I want to call a webdynpro application from another application and also i want to pass parameters to the called webdynpro application.
Is there an example on SDN which shows how this can be done. If not please advise how this can be done.
Thanks and Regards
Sidharth

Hi Sidharth,
until the tutorial is available, here's a step by step guide.
1. Create an outbound exit plug, for example "CallApp" in an interface view controller belonging to the calling component.
2. Add a string parameter 'Url' to the plug "CallApp". It's important that the parameter starts with uppercase 'U'.
3. Declare a controller usage of the interface view controller for the view controller, which will fire the plug.
4. Add an action to the calling view controller.
5. Add the following code snippet to the method body of the action handler. Change the application name "CalledApp" to the name of your called application and the wdThis.wdGet<YourInterfaceView>Controller().wdFirePlugCallApp(url) so that it matches the names you defined. The example will not work, if the application is not part of the deployable object the calling component resides in.
IWDDeployableObject componentDPO = wdComponentAPI.getDeployableObjectPart().getDeployableObject();
String appName = "CalledApp";
WDDeployableObjectPart[] applicationParts = componentDPO.getParts(WDDeployableObjectPartType.APPLICATION);
WDDeployableObjectPart appPart = null;
for (int idx = 0; idx < applicationParts.length; idx++) {
appPart = applicationParts[idx];
if (appPart.getShortName().equals(appName)) {
break;
appPart = null;
if (appPart == null) {
throw new WDRuntimeException(
"The application: " + appName + " is not a part of: " + componentDPO.getName());
Map urlParameters = new HashMap(1);
urlParameters.put(ClientConstants.APPLICATION_PREFIX + "Param1", "Parameter sent by caller.");
try {
String url = WDURLGenerator.getApplicationURL(appPart, urlParameters);
wdThis.wdGet<YourInterfaceView>Controller().wdFirePlugCallApp(url);
} catch (WDURLException e) {
throw new WDRuntimeException(e);
6. Add a string value attribute named "ReceivedParameter" to the context of the component controller owning the target interface view.
7. Declare a controller usage of this component controller for the target interface view controller.
8. Add a startup plug to the target interface view controller. Add a parameter ("Param1" in this example) to the plug. It's important, that the name of the plug parameter is the same (case sensitive) as used for the URL generation.
9. Add the following to the method body of the startup plug handler:
wdThis.wdGet<YourComponent>Controller().wdGetContext().currentContextElement().setReceivedParameter(Param1);
10. To check, if the parameter passing works, map a value attribute in a view controller to the component controller context and bind e.g. the text property of a TextView to that attribute.
Hope that helps.

Stefan

Powershell Auto-Elevate (RunAs Administrator) and Pass Parameters

This is not a question but a comment about passing parameters to an auto-elevated script. There are many examples out there about how to auto-elevate a script so it is running as Administrator but I could not find any examples about passing the parameters
from the normal script to the auto-elevated script.
I finally figured it out through some trial and error so for those that have been searching for a similar solution, here you go...
(If this has been posted elsewhere, please let me know because I have not been able to find it anywhere)

How to run and pass parameters to exe file from the .txt file

hi,
i am facing problem with passing parameters to the .exe file which is run by labview.firstly i have .txt script with parameters which i have to pass to .exe file. This .exe file is also a software and that script is written for it.And now i have to create programm in labview which should fullfill following points.
1. I have to use one knob named 'Run script'.If i pressed the knob ,it should open the Browser where i can choose .txt script file.
2. .exe application should open(Path already chossen).
3. after passing the parameters .exe application should closed.
4.And labview now should update his parameter
I can just open .exe file using Exce.vi but i dont getting any idea to do more than this.can somebody please help me?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This depends on the exe file. Does it retrieve the information as standard input or does it require the information as command line arguments?
Depending on this, you can read the txt-file in LV (using the file functions) and pass the content to the System Exec.vi.

Wesite Login and navigate to reports page and pass parameters to the forms page and download file

Hello,
New to C# scripting in SSIS. Everyday I download data file from a website. I need to schedule a page to include a script to auto download from the website everyday by navigation to reports page and submenu for a particular report. After I click it opens
a webpage where I need to select my criteria and download the file to a table. This is what so far I got
Object mySSISConnection = Dts.Connections["websiteConnectionManager"].AcquireConnection(null);
MessageBox.Show("Success")
I got the success message. After login, I need to navigate to select reports and then from submenu select the everyday report and pass the input parameters to the webpage and download the file and export to a tables. Any help. Not much coding I know. Learning!!
Any help really appreciate it.
Thanks
Jagan

Whoever instructed you to so is not prudent, once the report definition changed the package will break.
This is not the proper data interexchange.
Here is though an example on how to generate a SSRS report and download as a file: http://sandeep-aparajit.blogspot.ca/2010/02/how-to-execute-and-save-ssrs-report.html

Firing an external app from flash and pass parameters

Hi all,
I need to fire an exe from flash projector and pass it a lot
of parameters(need to regenerate an image). Could someone tell me
what would be the best solution for this... can I make a php
executable which could use all the gd functions? If yes, can you
please write a brief tut or provide some guidelines.
Thanks

then use:
fscommand("exec", "correctanswer.exe");

Open and passing parameters into Projector

How can i from Visual Basic application call Projector and
passing the parameter into the Projector for Lingo Scripts
execution. For better understanding, here is my scenario:
- The role of this projector is as a launcher to luanch 30 of
my Director movie files.
In Lingo,
Global myPath
On startmovie
go movie myPath
end
- Now, my main application is in Visual Basic. To open this
projector and play is no problem. But i wanted to open this
projector and passing the parameter into the Projector global
variable which is myPath.
Any solution for that?
Thanks

You can launch the projector with additional arguments in the
command
line, and use 'the commandLine' to retrieve these arguments.
ie:
launch the projector from visual basic
projector.exe "some extra info"
and in your director movie you use
on startmovie
alert (the commandLine)
end startmovie
