Application Object call

Can an object be made to execute on a users client device from within another application.
Perhaps shelling out and running a script or?

Issue in webdynpro application while calling from UWL

Hi All,
I am working on APPRAISAL workflow in HCM module.
In new version of SAP has provided ABAP web dynpro application HAP_MAIN_DOCUMENT (component HAP_MAIN_DOCUMENT)
but it is not integrated with workflow. Earlier insted of this application there was a BSP application and this was integrated with workflow.
Now to integrate ABAP webdynpro application with workflow I have created new web dynpro application and calling HAP_MAIN DOCUMENT application and when I test through SE80 transaction then I am just passing Work Item ID and it is opening HAP_MAIN DOCUMENT application. I have done it as follows.
In swfvisu I am passing Work Item ID and In application I am getting business object details using this I am createing a URL and then using exit plug I am calling HAP_MAIN_DOCUMENT application
*METHOD exit1 .*
* DATA lo_nd_new_url TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
**DATA lo_el_new_url TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.**
**DATA ls_new_url TYPE wd_this->element_new_url.**
**DATA lv_url TYPE wd_this->element_new_url-url.**
**DATA: l_cmp_api TYPE REF TO if_wd_component,**
        **result TYPE REF TO if_wd_window,**
        **l_window1 TYPE REF TO if_wd_window_manager.**
***     navigate from <CONTEXT> to <NEW_URL> via lead selection**
**lo_nd_new_url = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_new_url ).**
***     @TODO handle non existant child**
***     IF lo_nd_new_url IS INITIAL.**
***     ENDIF.**
***     get element via lead selection**
**lo_el_new_url = lo_nd_new_url->get_element( ).**
***     @TODO handle not set lead selection**
**IF lo_el_new_url IS INITIAL.**
**ENDIF.**
***     get single attribute**
**lo_el_new_url->get_attribute(**
    **EXPORTING**
      **name = `URL`**
    **IMPORTING**
      **value = lv_url ).**
**wd_this->fire_exit_plg( url = lv_url ). "abap_true**
*** l_cmp_api = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).**
*** l_window1 = l_cmp_api->get_window_manager( ).**
*** result = l_window1->create_external_window(**
***url = lv_url ).**
*** result->open( ).**
**ENDMETHOD.**
In SE80 it is opening application perfectly in same session of new Z webdynpro application.
But when I click on UWL workitem it is not opening.
In dubugging I checked that workitem ID is passed correctly also URL is created correctly for HAP_MAINDOCUMENT but it is not opening.
Please let me know is there any setting in UWL config.

Weblogic 10.3.0 issues with remote object calls.

All:
I was wondering if anyone has experienced any issues with Weblogic 10.3.0 dropping initial remote object calls over AMF Secure Channel. Here are the issues we are experiencing.
1. FLEX applications fail consistently on the first remote object call made across the AMF Secure Channel. Resulting in the request not returning from the application server; which has had varying affects on the different applications including missing data, application freeze and general degrading of the user experience.
2. FLEX applications require a browser/application refresh once the application has been inactive for a certain period of time. In our experiences the behavior occurs after 30 minutes of inactivity.
I've deployed this same code to Weblogic 10.3.3 and the behaviors go away. Are there any patches to 10.3.0 that might take care of this issue that we are not aware of?
Thanks for you help,
Mike

Hello,
I found the problem. But I needed change the target of all my datasources until discover that one of my datasource didn´t answer and no errors was trigged.

How to Use AccessibleObjectFromWindow API in VBA to Get Excel Application Object from Excel Instance Window Handle

I need to get the Excel.application object from a window handle using AccessibleObjectFromWindow. I can't seem to make the code work. First, I successfully search for the XLMAIN windows. Then, when I get a handle, I execute the AccessibleObjectFromWindow
function. It seems to return a value of -2147467262 in all cases. Therefore, I believe that it is returning an error value. I can't figure out how to determine the meaning of this value.
If it is an error value, I believe that one or more arguments are in error. My best guess at present is that the GUID argument is incorrect. I have tried two GUID values: {00020400-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} and {90140000-0016-0409-0000-0000000FF1CE}.
I have seen both used in conjunction with OBJID_NATIVEOM. Neither one seems to work. I really would prefer not to use the second one as it has an Excel major and minor version number. I would hate to have to change this code, if a new minor version appeared.
The attached code has been commented to show which parts have been shown to work and which not. I'm at my wits end and really need help.
Thanks

I don't think you can return a reference to Excel's main window like that as you are attempting to do.
Ref:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd317978(v=vs.85).aspx
It's relatively straightforward to return any workbook's window in any given instance, and in turn it's parent Excel app. Try the following and adapt as required (and include error handling) -

Set xlApp = obj.Application
GetXLapp = True
End If
End Function
Note as written if an instance does not have any loaded workbooks a reference will not be returned (though a workbook can be added using DDE, but convoluted!)
FWIW there are two other very different approaches to grab all running Excel instances though something along the lines of the above is simplest.

Access jsp's application object from an .java file?

Hi,
I hava a .jsp page and an import statement to a .java file. How can I access the application object in this .java file?
I want to make an initialization function that I want to be called in every .jsp of the WEB application and to store this function in a .java file.

The only way to get a hold of the application object would be to pass it to java code as a parameter to a method.
ie public class Util{
public void initialiseJSPPage(ServletContext application){
// do stuff in ServletContext
}and then in the JSP call it via
<% Util.initialiseJSPPage(application); %>
You could manually include this code on every JSP.
A better alternative is that in web.xml you can configure an automatic include (See JSP.3.3.5)
What is it you are trying to accomplish by doing this?
Would a Filter be a more appropriate tool in this case? That would let you run java code before selected requests are handled.
Cheers,

Outlook.Application Object

Hello Experts,
i am using the 'Outlook.Application' object to create a new outlook email item in my ABAP code. everything is fine except when i'm creating an attachment, i don't know how to attach a file to my email. My code look like this.
REPORT ztest_outlookobject           .
INCLUDE ole2incl .
DATA: lr_outlook TYPE ole2_object,
      lr_mi TYPE ole2_object,
      lr_at TYPE ole2_object.
CREATE OBJECT lr_outlook 'Outlook.Application'.
CALL METHOD OF lr_outlook 'CreateItem' = lr_mi
EXPORTING #1 = 0.
GET PROPERTY OF lr_mi 'Attachments' = lr_at.
CALL METHOD OF lr_at 'Add' = 'C:\eraseable.xls'. "<<< the problem is here >>>
SET PROPERTY OF lr_mi 'To' = 'Bai Cil'.
SET PROPERTY OF lr_mi 'CC' = '[email protected]'.
SET PROPERTY OF lr_mi 'Subject' = 'Your subject'.
SET PROPERTY OF lr_mi 'Body' = 'Some text'.
CALL METHOD OF lr_mi 'Display'.
FREE OBJECT lr_outlook.
but i'm getting this error: "'C:\eraseable.xls'" cannot be changed. -

thanks guys.
i found the answer. here it is.
CALL METHOD OF lr_at 'Add'
EXPORTING #1 = 'C:\eraseable.xls'.

The "application" object

the "application" object can be called within a JSP file.
What if I wanna call it within a JavaBean class? How do I instantiate it?

The application object is the servletcontext that is passed to the servlet/JSP by the server during initialization. If you want to use it in a JavaBean you'll have to pass it in.
<jsp:useBean id="myBean" scope="session" class="beans.MyBean" />
<% myBean.setApplication(application); %>
and in MyBean
import javax.servlet.*;
public class MyBean {
   ServletContext sc;
   public MyBean() { }
   public void setApplication(ServletContext inSC) { this.sc = inSC; }
}

Application Object In Servlets

First off, I'm new to writing servlets so forgive my ignorance...
How do I get the application object within the init method of an HttpServlet? I want to call some methods on it (e.g. getRealPath) but I get compile errors because I'm not sure how to get the application object.

public void init(ServletConfig config) {
ServletContext sc = config.getServletContext();
String path = sc.getRealPath("/"); // or something like that
}

Create an Application Object schedule from command line?

Hi everyone - long-time lurker, first-time poster here.
Is there a way create an availability schedule for an Application Object via a command line (or any other programmatic method)? The utilities I've obtained from Cool Solutions are great for replicating AOs (Application Objects) and setting certain properties, but none of them seem to have a method of creating a schedule that you would otherwise create within the AO's property book via Availability > Schedule. BTW, we are using Zen 6.5.
We have a rollout around the corner for which there are several AOs that drive the process, and we are going to have an instance of each of these AOs for every target group (of which there are dozens), and each group will have their own distinct schedule. The schedules are basically going to be "wait until day X to become available and then remain available for the next 2 months".
For some of the AOs we can use the Schedule Type of Range of days, which is not so terrible to set manually because you just specify a start date and an end date. But most of the AOs must have the Schedule Type of Specified days in order to ensure they do not ever launch during business hours; manually selecting 60 days from the date picker for a single instance is a daunting task, and I shudder at the thought of having to do so for dozens of AO instances.
I believe that the field in the ZENworks database that corresponds with an Application Object's schedule has a data type of Binary (which may be why there doesn't seem to be an existing solution), but does anyone have any ideas for accomplishing what I'm talking about?
Thanks in advance,
Gavin

Just to clarify, you want:
Range of days, start date, end date. Nothing fancier than that?
- Anders Gustafsson (Sysop)
The Aaland Islands (N60 E20)
In a perfect world this is what I would like to be able to do:
For the AOs where we're going to use the "Range of Days" schedule type, be able to specify the start date, end date and also the days of the week when we do not want it to run (or just the days we do want it, if easier).
For the AOs with the "Specified days" schedule type, we would like to add (or remove) a specific date, and optionally be able to specify that Start Time and End Time that applies to the dates. As for adding multiple dates, I was planning on having a script that enumerates all the dates in our desired range, and for each date in the range it would call the utility with that date passed as a parameter to add it or remove it.
If all of the above is too much to put together then I would not complain if it is only partially fulfilled. To be honest I would not mind building a mechanism myself that could handle this, it's just that I don't know where to start. I'd be happy to take a crack at it if someone could point me in the right direction for how to send commands to the database (or directory).
Thank you again for your help.

When submit remote object call getting error Client.Error.DeliveryInDoubt

Hello,
We are having very weird error DeliveryInDoubt from blazeds.
[ERROR] failed to call the remote service !!![FaultEvent fault=[RPC Fault faultString="Channel disconnected" faultCode="Client.Error.DeliveryInDoubt" faultDetail="Channel disconnected before an acknowledgement was received"] messageId="98F7B030-0FE0-0B88-300C-EC422D055E21" type="fault" bubbles=false cancelable=true eventPhase=2
Error does not happen every time, but rather from time to time but happens on all client machines.
Environment:
blazeds v3.
Flex application with Remote Object.
Browser IE7.
Object that passed to blazeds is complex and might have 100 items.But number of items does not seem affect error occurences.
Short description for the object passed to blazeds remote object call for processing:
Remote Object call takes an argument ArrayCollection of SyncRequest objects (_requestSyncList)
                var syncRequest:SyncRequest = new SyncRequest();
                var syncObject:Object = new Object();
                syncObject[requestBuilder.direction] = requestBuilder.jobMap;
                syncRequest.syncJobs = syncObject;
                _requestSyncList.addItem(syncRequest);
requestBuilder.jobMap is an object that have different artifacts.
jobMap[obj.artifact] = myColl;
myColl is ArrayCollection of artifact of SyncJob
Here is the definition of SyncJob
   public class SyncJob
        public var jobName:String;
        [ArrayElementType("com.farmers.docprocessing.remotesync.vo.JobParameter")]
        public var jobParams:ArrayCollection;
Not sure what causing that issue and how to debug it.
Please advice.
Thank you

Not without you psoting some code.
Possible problem: Difference between object type being returned, vs the type of the reference (i.e., the method that returns an object should have a return type of the interface name).

Caching whole Application Object[in addition to swf]

My whole application is written in JSF. I am using SWFobject
to embed Flex component in a JSF page[which just contains Flex swf
only]. Now the user can click a button on JSF application and can
navigate to this JSF page[with Flex application embedded], and he
can again click a button on the Flex application and move back to
original JSF application.Now the issue is when the user moves from
original JSF page to Flex embedded JSF page he looses the old state
of the Flex application.
Here is the use case :
1.) User is on main JSF page and hits button to navigate to
another JSF page which has Flex application embedded using
SWFObject.
2.) on the Flex application He has tree on the left side and
some interactive images on the right side and the bottom portion of
the screen has tabs displaying some information corresponding to
each node.Everytime he clicks on a node on the tree I create a new
Tab on the bottom portion and display corresponding information
which gets fetched from the backend.
3.) Now lets say he clicked on two nodes and current state of
application is tree is expanded second node is selected and some
intercative images are displayed on the right side and two tabs are
created on the bottom of screen with some info.
4.) Now user decides to go back to original JSF
application(he hits a button on the present screen to take him back
to original JSF page).
5.) Now when the user tries to navigate back to Flex
application, he looses all the previous state of the Flex
application.
So My question is, is there a way that old state of the flex
application be saved.this different then caching swf, which I am
already doing, But I do not want the SystemManager to create a new
instance of application object (because in that case I will loose
all the components and there previous states), but instead use the
last saved application instance bypassing all the lifecycle of
application object and adding the existing application instance to
the display list directly].
I want to know whether this is even possible???
1.) Can I store the application instance somewhere somehow.
2.) Tell SystemManager to use this applicationInstance rather
than instantiating a new one.
If its not possible then what are the alternatives to achieve
same kind of behavior?

You'd need to put the right stuff in the url to make it work,
just like if
you were calling a page that's expecting GET params. I don't
really use the
HistoryManager, so you'll need to either look into this
yourself or ask
someone who knows more about it.

Mock objects calling parent constructor

I'm trying to create some tests in which I'm providing a mock object to the constructor of my test objects and testing that appropriate methods are called in the mock. The objects I'm mocking only have a few public methods so I created an inner class that extends the object I'm trying to mock and just records which method was called. However, when I run the test it fails because the mock object calls the default constructor of the object of it's parent; causing the entire application to run. I'm trying to figure out a way around this.
Now I already know a solution that would work, creating a second constructor in the object I'm mocking which does nothing, then call the fake constructor from my mock object instead of the default constructor. The solution dosn't feel very elegent though, I'm wondering if I'm missing a simpler solution?

I'm testing JMS communication between two applications. Each topic Listener has a reference to the main class of the respective applications to communicate with them.I still don't see why a call to the constructor should start the program. Change the design so that doesn't happen. You should instead provide a start method.

Simultaneous remote object calls in one http request?

I am noticing when I have two remote object calls happen at the same time they are being bundled into one http request. This is causing problems in my application becuase the result is not coming back until both have finished.
So basically I have to calls that happen at the sametime. One does not take anytime and the other is a long running task. I will not get the result for the first until the long running task completes.
Has anyone else seen this?
Any help would be appreciated.

"suspend the main thread, pending a remote call.." No. Can't
be done.
..."pass arguments into the resultHandler..." Yes, this is
done using the AsyncToken. (ACT pattern)
The send() methods returns an AsyncToken object. You can use
this dynamic object to add almost anything you want to the token,
including strings, and functions (google the term "closure").
As I am still not comfortable with anonymous functions, I
like to pass strings. I pass an identifier, which I can use in a
switch statement to determine the next step. Sometimes I pass a
"nextStep" string to define finer grain conditionality.
I use a single dataService object and result handler function
for all calls.
