BW Transient InfoProvider

Hi Everyone,
As you may know, it's now possible (BW7.01) to create a BEx query on top of a classical InfoSet (transaction SQ02) which is based on a BW data source. I learned about this through the below demo:
[http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/elearn?rid=/library/uuid/30c52df3-98a2-2b10-15b6-e569f104dd58&overridelayout=true]
I want to try this feature to avoid the creation of BW objects such as InfoObjects, InfoProviders, Transformations,...etc. because the source of my data is a constantly changing structure so all I need is just update my data source and classical InfoSet while my Transient InfoProvider is dynamically generated accordingly.
Has anyone tried this feature by using a replicated data source? that is by building a classical InfoSet on top of a replicated data source in BW from an ERP system? What's the impact on the source system in terms of performance?
I highly appreciate your input on this.
Regards,
Ali Q.

Hi Ali ,
Did you get lucky with Transient InfoProvider ?

Newly added Cal.View Measure does not appear in the BEX Designer

Hi,
anybody come about this :
A newly added Cal.View Measure does not appear in the BEX Designer:
I got a runnig query in Bex Designer, based on a transient InfoProvider which is based on a HANA Calculation View
and
added a new measure to the Calculation View
and
added a Reference InfoObject in the Publisher to the (transient) InfoProvider.
and
see the newly added filed in the Listccube of the(transient) InfoProvider with a technical generated name
and do not
get the newly added measure in the BEX Designer.
Whats wrong ? What needs to be done ?
Thank You
Martin

Hi Martin,
Are you trying to consume the HANA Calc View in BEx Front End Tool - Query Designer.Could you also check the data preview of the Calc View shows the newly added Measure.Check the definition of Calc View under SYS_BIC schema ->Column Views.

Previewing Transients in Loops?

Hi there,
I've got two questions regarding transients in Apple Loops.
If I create an Apple Loop from an audio sample I have, the transients differ in the Logic Sample Editor to how they are when I open the loop in Apple Loops Util.
For example, let's say I've 'rhythmically' sliced a drum loop with a transient at each hit, when I open it in Apple Loops Util, the transients just show at regular intervals as selected in the toolbar (1/4s, 8ths, 16ths, etc etc). Is there a way to keep the transients from the Sample Editor?
Also, when working with transients in the Apple Loops Utility, is there a way to preview the audio between transients. Like when you double click a section between transients in the Sample Editor, you can play back just that slice.
Thanks

Okay, let me try again. I need three loops. Two loops start at the same time one runs fast one runs slow. The slow one is probably independent to the problem. When the second loop is done, it needs to restart and start a third loop that takes less than the second.
This is all still very vague. You are omitting crucial information.
Which one is the "second loop". Slow or fast?
What is the meaning or "probably" in this context?
Should the first loop continue forever?
What determines if the second loop is done?
What does the third loop do during that one second? Is it actually looping many times or is it just executing some code once?
What should happen after the third loop is done?
It might be much easier if you could describe your problem from a real-world perspective instead of programming terms.
What is it suppused to do? What is is controlling? What behavior should the user see?

Web item : List of documents of an infoprovider

I have problems to display all documents of an infoprovider in a web item "list of documents" of a web template.
I chose as type of data provider : SELECTOR_DATA_PROVIDER and selected an infoprovider but I have the error message :
" The referenced data provider "DP_1" is not a query view
In the Web Application Designer, set parameter DATA_PROVIDER_REF in template TEST_COMMENTAIRE1 for Web item DOCUMENT_LIST_ITEM_1 to a valid data provider of type query view "
And the type "query view" does not respond to my needs because it is too restrictive.
Do you have an idea ?
Thanks

How to retrieve the values from a Transient View Object

Hi Experts,
I am using Jdevelpoer11.1.1.5.0. I created one Transient view object with attributes EmpId,Salary.
In Backing Bean i will create rows for that view object and display it in the form of <af:Table> like Empid, Salary and an Update Link.
Now my problem is i want to update the salary of the particular EmpId. For Example if the EmpId is 100 and salary is 10000 now i want to increase the salary to 20000 and if i click on the update button; i want to retrieve the particular employee details in my backing bean. How can i acheive this?
Thanks in advance.

A better approach would be to programmatically populate rows in the <VO>Impl.java by overriding the executeQueryForCollection(0 as specified here -
http://adfpractice-fedor.blogspot.in/2011/01/adf-bc-programmatically-populated-vo.html
You can write the logic to update the salary in an AM method then on click of Update or in the getter of Salry field if logic is valid for all fields...

Transient persestant memory-begin abort transaction-arraycopynonatomic

If array defined as transient, then abort doesnt make any sense, chages are not rolled back.(Both for arrayCopy and arraycopyNonAtomic functions)
     public void AtomicNonatomic()
byte hello[] = {'H','E','L','L','O'};
          byte[] key_buffer = JCSystem.makeTransientByteArray((byte)16, JCSystem.CLEAR_ON_RESET);
          //byte[] key_buffer = new byte[16];
          JCSystem.beginTransaction();
          //Util.arrayCopy(hello, (short)0, key_buffer, (short)0, (short)5);
          Util.arrayCopyNonAtomic(hello,(short)0, key_buffer, (short)0, (short)5);
          for(byte i =0; i<2; i++)
          key_buffer=0; //This types of assigning values are atomic operations, so can be thougth as arrayCopy
          JCSystem.abortTransaction();
If array not defined as transient and if arrayCopy is used then abort works
If array not defined as transient and if arrayCopyNonatomic is used then abort not works
     public void AtomicNonatomic()
          //byte[] key_buffer = JCSystem.makeTransientByteArray((byte)16, JCSystem.CLEAR_ON_RESET);
          byte[] key_buffer = new byte[16];
          JCSystem.beginTransaction();
          //Util.arrayCopy(hello, (short)0, key_buffer, (short)0, (short)5);
          Util.arrayCopyNonAtomic(hello,(short)0, key_buffer, (short)0, (short)5);
          for(byte i =0; i<2; i++)
          key_buffer[i]=0;
          JCSystem.abortTransaction();
As a result begin-abort-commit should be used with non-transient arrays and without arrayCopyNonatomic function.

Check out JCRE specification. Therein you will find what is (not) part of a transaction.
1. All global arrays are not part of a transaction
2. All transient fields/arrays/keys are not part of a transaction
3. OwnerPIN object is not part of a transaction
4. All Java Card API methods are transactional, except arrayCopyNonAtomic and arrayFillNonAtomic
Lifetime of a transaction
begin <--> commit
begin <--> abort < -- rollback
begin <--> JCRE context (process method exit) < -- abort transaction (done by JCRE) < -- rollback
begin <--> uncaught exception < -- abort < -- rollback
begin <--> tear/reset < -- rollback

Doubt in transient and volatile

Hi,
I have doubt in using transient n volatile modifiers
class Test
public static final transient int i=1;
public static final volatile int i=1; //line 1
}If i use final n volatile ,having a comp err like
illegal combination of final and volatile.. line 1..while i dont have any problem with
final transient
I didnt understand the reason..Can anyone pls explain?
Thnx.
Mysha.

this is just off the top of my head, so it might not be strictly accurate, but:
transient has to do with serialization, it means that field won't be serialzed. Of course, for a static final variable, it's I'm not sure, but that could be a redundent modifier, as I'd think the reconstituted class still has whatever it's static final contents are anyway.
volatile has to do with synchronization and access across threads, and since you can't change a final variable's value once initialized, volatile is contrary to what final is saying. So it's either one or the other.

Hi,
Try activating multiprovider and underlying infocubes, using following programs.
Multiprovider: RSDG_MPRO_ACTIVATE
Infocube: RSDG_CUBE_ACTIVATE
DSO: RSDG_ODSO_ACTIVATE
InfoObject: RSDG_IBOJ_ACTIVATE
Then try to run the query, alternately you can use transaction RSRT.

How to create Virtual InfoProvider with Services - Virtual Characteristic

Hi all,
I need to create a virtual infoprovider that also fills a virtual characteristic in order to display custom characteristics and calculated values based on user selection.
Basicaly what I want to do is send a variable in a virtual characteristic equal to the values I want to fill in the characteristic. So for instance if my base cube contains the infoobjects Brand, Product Line, Region and Country I want a have a new infoobject that has no data, but fills itself with the vales of the infoobject I specify at query time on the virtual cube.
The reason for this is I am trying to create a WAD using the delta chart (waterfall graph) that will show the difference between the plan and actual totals for a specific characteristic in Profitibility analysis.
I have a document that explains the situation. Send me your mail address and I will send you the document.
Kind Regards

We found a way to build the structure for this.
