BODI 11.7: Missing Source Information from File Format Editor

I'm trying to import data from multiple flat files and need to include the file name of each file as an attribute for each row, however, I do not have the Source Information section of the File Format Editor that the DI Technical Manual refers to on page 367.
I'm sure I'm missing something small in terms of properties to switch this feature on and hoping that someone can help me???
I'm using Data Integrator 11.7.3.1

This is a call-property, not a class property.
When you open the file format editor via the object library you can define the class as such.
Open the file format reader from within the dataflow, there you can specify the properties specific to this reader call - including the "include filename column".

How to get information from a text editor in the SAP standard transactions

Hi SAP gurus I have a requirement in which it is required to gte the information from a text editor(which is not a field) in mm02 (click on) goto Purchase Order Text in this view there is a text editor there is some text in te the text editor i have to get that information in a table can it be done if so please give example and steps
Points will be given to useful information

Ah yes, excellent question, and not really a clear cut answer. In my experience, the easiest way to find this information is to simply create the text using the standard transaction, in this case MM02. Then go to transaction SE16, using table STXH, do a query on this table, entering your user name, and today's date as the creation date. The results should show the text that you just created, now you can see the object, id, and the way the name is being used here.
I also understand that in some cases, there is a button next to the editor in the screen which gives you some idea of these values, but this is not implemented everywhere, and I believe that I've only seen this in one place, can't remember where, but the first solution above will always work for you.

Debbuging WPF missing source information

Hello
I'm new to WPF. I'm trying to put together a small project and I have a problem with debbuging. It's very similar to this thread https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums...
(which has no solution).
Basicaly when I debug my project and an error happens instead of showing the code file / line (and stop there) I get the message:
Source not available
Source information is missing from the debug information for this module
You can view disassembly in the Disassembly window. To always view disassebly window for missing source files, change the setting in the Options dialog.
I do not want to always view the Disassebly window. I want to be shown the line of the code behind where the error happens.
Please advice.
Note (my system): Win 7 PRO, VS 2012 PRO, WPF / .NET 4.5 solution
Thx in advance

Missing SOurcing information in PReq

HI,
I ran an MRP (MD02) for the material, it did create a PReq.
I had maintained Contract for the material / vendor with valid price. Also Source list was defined for this material and was fixed. MRP Parameter was set to 1.
The issue is the PReq created due to the MRP--> dows not show in sourcing information.
What am I missing?

I could resolve this issue. The Purchasing view in Material Master --> Source List flag should be off.
Thanks for the help and support.

How to design plug-in which extract information from file opened in illustrator

Hi Everyone,
I want to design a plug-in in adobe illustrator which could extract information from pdf file which is opened in illustrator.
Can anyone give me direction from where could I start.??
Thanks in advance.

This is very difficult in any API because there are no tables in PDF.
If the table is at a known exact location you would extract text from each known cell location
If you have to discover tables you need to decide how to recognise them: perhaps by looking for drawn lines and analysing their relationship to see if they form a grid; then use the positions derived to get the text from the table.

Reading MP3 header information from file

Hi,
Im currently using the JMF bean to play a specified location. Such as a media player would do. Now I would like to read the ehader information of MP3 files - if provided as a source. How can I access this data ?
thanks,
detlef

You need to read about the .DWG file format somewhere. Use some binary file editor like Ultraedit and try to understand the file's layout.
Hint: if it is a binary format, do not use "readLine". Read the raw bytes and try to get the structure of the file piecewise.

Get Information From File Name

Hi,
I have a somewhat general question, is it possible to extract certain "elements" from a file name?
For example: x0 xxx abc 123 xx xxxx.avi (or any type txt, jpg, and etc...).
Assuming that the "abc" is constant throughout the files but the digits are changing (not sequential), can I extract just the "abc 123" (or whatever number it is)?
I know how to strip/build path, but here I don't know what to search since the distance from the beginning is changing and the digits are changing.
Thank you,
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There are several string function that allow you to search for a string, and break the string into several parts.
Another option is using Regular Expression, yours sound like "abc/s[0-9]{3}", that should return the "abc 123" part.

Extract single channel information from file group

Hello All,
I want to perform a repeat operation on one channel of a large number of multi-channel files.
As a simplified example lets say I want to calculate the max value in channel 1 for each file in a group. I then want to place these values in the row of a new channel in a new file. Has anyone a similar example file I could modify or suggestions on how to do this? I am working with TDMS files.
Thanks
Mark
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I had a very similar approach, so here's another example in case it helps. This example loops through all files in a specified directory, and if the file is a TDMS file, it loads the first channel in the file and calculates the maximum value.
DIM MyFiles, iCount, Channel
CALL Data.Root.Clear()
SET Channel = Data.Root.ChannelGroups.Add("Calculated Values").Channels.Add("Maximum",DataTypeFloat64)
MyFiles = DirListGet("C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\DIAdem 2011\Examples\Data", "*.*", "filename", "FullFilenames")
IF IsArray(MyFiles) THEN
FOR iCount = LBound(MyFiles) to UBound(MyFiles)
IF UCase(NameSplit(MyFiles(iCount),"E")) = "TDMS" THEN
CALL DataFileLoadSel(MyFiles(iCount),,"[1]/[1]")
Channel.Values(Channel.Size+1) = CCh("Calculated Values/[2]",2)
CALL Data.Root.ChannelGroups("Calculated Values").Channels.Remove(2)
END IF
NEXT
END IF
If you can calculate the channel maximum value (or whatever property you're interested in tracking) during the acquisition and saving of the file, you should store that entity to a TDMS channel property. This would allow you to run queries on the property across all of your files and then very quickly load the results as a channel into the Data Portal.
I hope that helps...

Help! Problem with reading objects from file

I wrote a "Library" program for an assignment, and one of the requirements is that the library store all of its information to file upon exit, and reload this information from file when run.
Well, the writing to file part is working. I'm using a FileOutputStream object and an ObjectOutputStream object. I can tell from the file size of the .dat file that information is going into it.
But what I can't do is read from file. For that, I'm using a FileInputStream and an ObjectInputStream. I keep getting this exception:
java.io.EOFException
     at java.io.DataInputStream.readInt(Unknown Source)
     at java.io.ObjectInputStream$BlockDataInputStream.readInt(Unknown Source)
     at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readInt(Unknown Source)
     at Library.readDataFromFile(Library.java:350)
     at Library.<init>(Library.java:63)
     at LibraryDriver.main(LibraryDriver.java:6)I looked this exception up and it says it's thrown when a data input stream unexpectedly ends....But I am instantiating the input streams just before I try to read from file:
                        fileInStream = new FileInputStream(libraryFile);
               objInStream = new ObjectInputStream(fileInStream);
               Object[] objectArray = new Object[objInStream.readInt()];Both input streams have methods that "return the number of bytes that can be read from this file input stream without blocking". Just for kicks, I tried writing that number to the console.
For the FileInputStream, I get 404 bytes.
For the ObjectInputStream, I get 0 bytes.
So I guess it's a problem with the ObjectInputStream? Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can fix this, please?

Yep, here's the relevant code from the writeToFile() method:
                      for (int i = 0; i < libraryAuthors.length; i++) {
                    currentAlphaAuthorList = libraryAuthors;
                    for (int j = 0; j < currentAlphaAuthorList.size(); j++) {
                         currentAuthor = (Author) currentAlphaAuthorList.get(j);
                         objOutStream.writeObject(currentAuthor);
               objOutStream.flush();
               objOutStream.close();

URGENT: How do i get Source information?

Hi All,
My Planning application getting source information from EBS to FDM then Planning.
EBS-----------(Using ERPIntegration)------------FDM---------------Hyperion Planning.
We have various branches to load data from EBS.
then where do i get which source of EBS(like GL,SD,etc...) to which planning branch
ex: SD-------------------Planning Vehicle branch
Project is on production, then where do i get FDM?
Do i need to ask my admin to get path and access on FDM? or not? then where do i get designed FDM?
Please, please
i am in emergency
thank you
Bawani

Hi Dwlph,
Thank you very much for your answers. I have some more questions, please answer it
Q1) Can we load EBS Data/MetaData through FDM into planning system with out using Outline Load Utility?
Q2) Using FDM do we load Data directly into planning?
Q3) Can FDM load metadata directly into planning?
Q4) If FDM loads Data / Metadata into planning where can i find mappings?
Q5) Can not pass Data/ Metadata into planning with out using ODI, in case source is EBS?
Q6) What is the path for ODI in the DEV server? ex. http://servername:portno/ODI/index.jsp like ......(just expectation)
Q7) I found two FDM applications in Shared Services under FDM folder,
but opening FDM like http://servername:portno/FDM/... it is showing only HFM related FDM, its not showing Planning related FDM, why?
Q8) If they used FDM application for Planning how should i open? and what is the path to open?
So many questions Dwlph,
Sorry for this
But thanks for your help

Batch file format

Hi,
I'm using Final Cut Server to store all videos from the my department. I now want to integrate with a website and iTunes U. Basically, I want to have a website where people could choose a video and select which formats and where they want their video published. This page would then generate a Batch file and submit it to compressor via command line.
Does anyone knows of any document where I can find that describes the Compressor's Batch file format?
Thanks,
Sean Hughes.

Much appreciated for prompt response. Thank you very much.
I declared 2 global variables, one for 'Root directory' and another one for 'File name(s)'.
I've linked the script with WorkFlow.
In the script, I've inserted below code.
$Root_Name ='C:\TEMP';
$File_Name = 'DELTA_FULL*.txt';
And then created a New file format.
In File Format Editor, Given location as 'Local', Root directory = $Root_Name, File name(s) = $File_Name'
Then i set other settings but i couldn't see the table structure and values.
Could you please guide me.
Thanks

Copying IPTC caption information from one file to another

I need some help with jpeg files to run a script or Automator workflow to copy from one picture to another IPTC information (that's the text that makes up the caption, source, date location etc information in jpegs).
I have more than 300 high res pics that need to receive the IPTC (caption) info already typed into medium res versions of the same pics. The pics are all logically named and numbered (picSB_yyyy-mm-dd_med001 and picSB_yyyy-mm-dd_big001, 002 etc).
I already use Automator to bulk change some IPTC fields (location, copyright, credits etc) and have typed up details of who's in the pics etc in the caption field itself). But I can't see the work flow elements I'd need in the palettes on the left side of the Automator screen to copy the IPTC fields to other files.
I think there are two ways I could do this.
1) Set up an if/then script based on the file names and trailing numbers -
If file in folder named Medium ends in 001, copy IPTC info to file in folder named Big that ends in 001,
Repeat adding one to the value of the trailing number.
2) Move the files to new folders and have the IPTC info copied from one folder to another -
Move top file from folder Medium into a folder named Medium To Do,
Move the top file from folder Big to Big To Do,
Copy IPTC from file in Medium To Do to file in Big to Do,
Move file from Medium to Do to Medium Done,
Move file from Big To Do to Big done,
Repeat.
Can anyone advise me if I've missed the required elements in the Automator palette, or if such scripts might be available elsewhere?

Post the code plz so we can have a look...

The Boot Configuration Data file is missing requires Information

My ideapad U310 doesn't boot any more after the boot procedure was interrupted by power outage.
A blue screen shows the following:
Recovery
Your PC needs to be repaired
The Boot Configuration Data file is missing some required information.
File: \BCD
Error Code: 0xc000000d
You'll need to use the recovery Tools on your installation Media. If you don't have any installation media (like a disc or USB device), contact your system administrator or PC manufacturer.
Press ESC for UEFI Firmware Settings

I can only make one suggestion. Boot from usb Recovery flash drive and hope that the startup repair will do their magic to your unit.
