  • Issue in conversion ABAP to java mapping during PI upgrade

    Hi All,
    We are upgrading one interface from ABAP mapping to Graphical/Java mapping in PI upgrade.(7.1 dual stack to 7.4 version)
    In ABAP mapping there is character conversion like below.
      encoding    = '1164'
          replacement = '?'
    We want to implement the same functionality either through Java or graphical mapping . But we are not sure what are the range  of characters that need to be converted to '?' and also what is the most optimized way to achieve this functionality.
    Below are few sample of characters coming in the file:
    б,л,к,У,М,л,и,о,ф..etc

    hi all,
    the issue got resolved with a JAVA replace function
    String r = str.replaceAll("\\P{InBasic_Latin}", "?");
    Thanks all for your inputs.
    Regards,
    Anamika

  • Mapping preferences between ABAP, JAVA, XSLT...?

    Hi,
    How do i choose between,

    HI,
    JAVA Mapping :If you have complex mapping in your scenarios and also some times if you have more than 100 field tomap then better to choose the JAVA MApping.
    XSLT Mapping : Simple and if you have large size of messages then choose this type of XSLT mapping.
    ABAP Mapping : If your scenario is deals with ABAP / R3 related transactions , then choose ABAP Mapping ..
    Performance wise XSLT ,JAVA, ABAP order..

  • Graphical Mapping Vs XSLT mapping Vs Java Mapping Vs ABAP Mapping

    Hi Experts,
              I have a question regarding different message mapping options available in XI namely
    Graphical Mapping
    XSLT mapping
    Java Mapping
    ABAP Mapping
    Q1: Which amoung the above mappings is the best and why?
    Q2: On what cases Graphical, XSLT, Java and ABAP Mapping should be used?
    Q3: Is it true that graphical and XSLT mappings are converted into Java class internally?
    Kindly help!
    Thanks

    Hi,
    There is no hard and fast rule for using the mapping techniques.
    Graphical Mapping is used for simple mapping cases. When, the logic for your mapping is simple and straight forward and it does not involve mult hiearchical mapping requirement. and context handling.
    Java and XSLT mapping are used when graphical mapping cannot help you.
    When the choice is between Java And XSLT, XSLT is simpler than java mapping and easier. But, it has its drawbacks.  XSLT can lead to a bad perfrormance if the Source XML is huge.
    Java Mapping uses 2 types of parsers. DOM and SAX. DOM is easier to use with lots of classes to help you create nodes and elements, but , DOM is very processor intensive.
    SAX parser is something that parses your XML one after the other, and so is not processor intensive. But, it is not exaclty easy to develop either.
    For further info on each of the mapping, refer to these links,

    Am not sure about XSLT , but , yes graphical mapping is converted into java classes internally and these classes use SAX parsing as well.

  • Java Mapping, XSLT Mapping, ABAP Mapping

    Hi Experts,
                     Could any one explain what is the main features of the following Mapping. How to pick the mapping?
    Java Mapping - When to use and what is the advantage.
    ABAP Mapping - When to use and what is the advantage.
    XSLT Mapping - When to use and what is the advantage.
    Graphical Mapping - When to use and what is the advantage.
    cheers,
    Sunee

    There are 4 types of mapping in XI
    1. Graphical Mapping
    2. XSLT Mapping
    3. JAVA Mapping
    4. ABAP Mapping
    When to use Message mapping
    1 When the logic for your mapping is simple and straight forward, you can use
    Advantages of message mapping
    1)Easy to use.
    2) has GUI drag and drop.
    3) used for simple mapping cases
    4) it does not involve any complex logic
    Disadvantages of message mapping
    1)has limitation in terms of complex hierarchy
    When to use Java mapping
    1) Java mapping are used when graphical mapping cannot help you.
    Advantages of Java Mapping
    1)you can use Java APIs and Classes in it.
    2) file look up or a DB lookup is possible
    3) DOM is easier to use with lots of classes to help you create nodes and elements.
    Disadvantages of Java mapping
    1)SAX parser is not easy to develop
    2)DOM parser is intensive
    3) Java knowledge is required
    4) bit complexer
    XSLT Mapping - When to use
    1)When the required output is other than XML like Text, Html or XHTML (html displayed as XML )
    2)When default namespace coming from graphical mapping is not required or is to be changed as per requirements.
    3)When data is to be filtered based on certain fields (considering File as source)
    4)When data is to be sorted based on certain field (considering File as source)
    5)When data is to be grouped based on certain field (considering File as source)
    Advantages of using XSLT mapping
    1)XSLT program itself defines its own target structure.
    2)XSLT programs can be imported into SAP XI. Message mapping step can be avoided. One can directly go for interface mapping once message interfaces are created and mapping is imported.
    3)XSLT provides use of number of standard XPath functions that can replaces graphical mapping involving user defined java functions easily.
    4)File content conversion at receiver side can be avoided in case of text or html output.
    5)Multiple occurrences of node within tree (source XML) can be handled easily.
    6)XSLT can be used in combination with graphical mapping.
    7)Multi-mapping is also possible using xslt.
    8)XSLT can be used with ABAP and JAVA Extensions
    Disadvantages of using XSLT mapping
    1)Resultant XML payload can not be viewed in SXMB_MONI if not in XML format (for service packs < SP14).
    2)Interface mapping testing does not show proper error description. So errors in XSLT programs are difficult to trace in XI but can be easily identified outside XI using browser.
    3)XSLT mapping requires more memory than mapping classes generated in Java.
    4)XSLT program become lengthier as source structure fields grows in numbers.
    5)XSLT program sometimes become complex to meet desired functionality.
    6)Some XSL functions are dependent on version of browser.
    Advantages of Abap Mapping
    1) A person comfortable with OOABAP can go for ABAP mapping instead.
    Disadvantages of Abap Mapping
    1) Abap knowledge is required
    2) bit compexer

    Different types of Mapping in XI

  • ABAP Mapping Vs Java Mapping.

    We are implementing a project on XI.
    We need to freeze on one mapping.
    I feel ABAP Mapping provides the following advantages:
    1.SXI_MAPPING_TEST is a very good transaction for debugging and testing mapping environment of XI.Iam not sure wether java mapping can be tested after deploying it on XI.
    2.ABAP Mapping is well integrated with the XI and also version control becomes very easy as it is provided by the SAP transport system.
    3.ABAP also provides user  rich/simple API's as java.
    4.Support of XI in ABAP would make sustanenace easy as it is going to be a more SAP product and ABAPers are more available in ERP background.
    Java punters,Please provide inputs.

    Hi,
    all of the step in the message flow after a message enter
    the IS will be done by the abbap stack e.g. Receiver
    determination, interface determination, ... The only one
    step that is executed in J2EE-Stack is the mapping.
    In the pipline the system jump from the abap stack to
    Java stack to execute the mapping if the mapping is done
    in Java (message mapping, java mapping, xslt,...).
    But if the the mapping is done by abap the the runtime
    has not to jump to the java stack to execute the mapping.
    Because there is no java code to execute. To clarif: if
    you have only abap-mapping the the compete process step
    do not include the jump to the j2ee-stack of XI. So in
    this case the abap mapping is more performant cause the
    runtime stay in the abap stack through the complete
    message processing.
    But if you have mix mapping e.g. first step abap and
    second step java then the j2ee-stack will be used as
    well.
    regards,
    Ly-Na Phu

  • ABAP and Java mapping

    Wanted to confirm my understaing for ABAP and JAVA mapping.
    Am I correct in my assumption that these mapping techniques can be used only if input and ouput is in XML format ?
    So if XI is receiving a flat comma separated text/non-XML file or an IDOC for that matter and output is NOT in XML format, say again flat text file or IDOC, I cannot use above two techniques?
    All the docs I have read suggest that 'Execute' method is called when XML file/data is received, paresed using DOM/SAX/JAXB (for Java mapping) or IXML lib (for ABAP mapping) and then create a output XML file.
    -Thanks in advance

    Hi Bob,
    Here you have a code sample for deescaping. I have have written this code a couple of time ago. The incoming file can be any text format. It might be XML, but not necessarily.
    The main method is not reqired, but good for testing.

  • Regarding Java mapping and ABAP Mapping

    Hello,
         If I suppose to do Java mapping or ABAP mapping, Is there any pre requisite to perform these two mappings?
    If exist what they are?
    How to perform them?
    Thank you

    Hello jyotsna,
    Java mapping can be used when you have complex mapping structures.
    We can do most of the times for our requirements through Graphical mapping.
    When the structures are very complex to build you can go for SAX (Simple API for XML) or DOM (Document Object Model) parsers.
    Message mapping internally generates DOM parser.

    ABAP mappings run on ABAP Stack and are developed in the ABAP workbench of the Integration Server.
    You normally do not need to use the ABAP mappings and is preferable for someone with ABAP programming background. I should say JAVA functions would suffice any complex scenarios.

    You need to provide the name of your mapping program maually , you see it is an input box.
    just provide the name of abap mapping program it will work.
    and one more thing you cannot test abap mapping program in integration builer you need to test in abap only.
    use tcode: SXI_MAPPING_TEST for testing abap mapping

    it would be great if you provide the stpes to implement and java code samples....if it is possible with ABAP mapping also please let me know te steps.
    Best Regards....SARAN

  • When do we go for ABAP mapping and Java mapping

    Hi friends,
                At present I am working on graphical mapping in XI ,can you guys give me with an example or scenario when do we use ABAP mapping , Java mapping or XSLT mapping.
    Thanks in advance
    Sud

    <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/forums">https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/forums</a>
    I have standard XSLT mapping programs available for my scenarios, so use XSLT mapping. Similarly with Java mapping,  For most scenarios, message mapping does the job too well. Abap mapping similarly is used to leverge existing ABAP base.  If message mapping becomes confusing and hard to follow with too many functions, I go for Java mapping (just my way). I havent used ABAP mapping thus far.
    Discussing ABAP mapping
    ABAP mapping is developed in ABAP work bench. ABAP mapping needs to be transported to integration server and XI does not support this transport and have to do with ABAP transports.
    Customers who can develop mapping program on SAP web AS and can transport them there can use ABAP mapping
    *ABAP mapping programs cannot access the value table
    *Since ABAP mappings are executed on ABAP stack SAP does not provide any ABAP mapping programs
    *ABAP mapping programs must exists with one single version in IS, unlike JAva and XSLT mapping that can have multiple versions of mapping program

  • Call ABAP FM from XI Java mapping

    Can you please provide me some documentation on how to make a call to ABAP function module from Java mapping.
    Basically this would be a RFC lookup from Java mapping.
    Any recomendations on which one is a standard approach among ABAP Mapping vs JAVA mapping within XI.
    Your responses are appreciated.
    TNV

    Hi TNV,
    <i>I am more looking into using RFC call from java mapping.</i>
    The article by Michal can be used to make the RFC lookup not only from an User Defined Function but also from a java mapping.
    You can write any piece of java code inside the EXECUTE() method of your Java Mapping including the RFC Lookup API code in michal's article.

  • How to execute an ABAP Mapping after a Java Mapping

    Hi, i have found a Bug in XI and SAP said to me that the only solution is to execute an ABAP mapping after my java mapping.
    I have an IDOC to FILE scenario
    Could anyone orient me on what do i have to configure, so after my java mapping i can execute an abap mapping ?.
    Do i have to use process integration?
    thanks
    Mariano.

    i have developed a Java mapping originally, but XI has a bug. When you do not write anything to the outputStream XI instead of writing an emtpy file writes a file containing one byte ( 0x00 ) and this is a problem.
    SAP said to me that they will not fix this issue so they recomend me to create an abap mapping after my java mapping that will send no information if it receives this byte (0x00) and if not it will write all the information as received.
    My doubt regarding putting several mappings in the interface mapping configuration is this...
    Actual configuration:
    SOURCE MSG A -> ORIGINAL MAPPING -> TARGET MSG B
    Proposed configuration
    SOURCE. MSG A -> ORIGINAL MAPPING -> TARGET MSG B
    SOURCE. MSG A -> PATCH MAPPING -> TARGET MSG B
    I dont understand what receives de "patch mapping" it receives the structure from TARGET MSG B?

  • Abap+java stack, users not mapping to portal role.

    We have the ABAP+java add-on install.
    The UME is by default ABAP engine.
    From Portal:
    1 I create a portal user, it ALWAYS creates ABAP user in ABAP stack of WAS.
    2. I create a portal role, it creates a role in the Portal.
    3. When I assign the user this portal role,
    having worksets and pages,
    I get no pages or worksets shown in the portal page as soon
    user logs in.
    Can you help configure this so that I could see the pages and iviews inside this workset when user logs in.
    Thanks  a lot.
    PS:  posted this in webdynpro-ABAP.  no reply came.  Sorry to double post.

    Hi Mike,
    can you check into your WorkSet (or Pages) if you have setting up the <b>Entry Point</b> flag?
    PS: Award points for good answers.
