Call RFC from DELPHI Windows Services Program

Hi all,
Are there any way to call RFC from DELPHI Windows Services Program?
Best regards.

Hi again Bhagat,
1. Yes, it's included on 7.4 ABAP Stack (SAP NetWeaver 7.4 SP8 - Optimized for SAP HANA, Cloud and Mobile - Service Release 2 available now!). In a recent customer, SAP licences GW by user but there are other license model like session licensing: https://store.sap.com/sap/cp/ui/resources/store/html/SolutionDetails.html?pid=0000009470&catID=&pcntry=US&sap-language=EN&_cp_id=id-1385059687642-0
2. You could install as an AddOn on your 7.3 system, there are many options depending on your desired infrastructure: SAP Gateway deployment options in a nutshell For example our customer have deployed Central Hub Gateway in a standalone stack ABAP to act as an standalone oData bridge between ABAP/nonAbap systems.
3. You could deploy SAPUI5 apps in 7.x, Java Web Servers or HTTP Web Servers. You must consider your SSO scenario:
- SSO Logon Tickets. You will need to configurate SSO Logon Tickets between SAP NW Portal & SAP NW Gateway & your backend (ECC, etc). In order to pass SAP session cookie you will need setup SAP Web Dispacther and access portal & gateway throught SAP WD with the same domain.
- SAML2 Tickets. This scenario lets you provide portal & gateway on different domains enabling SSO. You could configure SAP NW Portal as an Identity Provider and other systems must trust SAP Portal as IdP.
Cheers

Calling Illustrator from a Windows Service

Hello,
A project I'm working on has an internal document conversion process that uses Adobe Illustrator. The conversion script is in Javascript and uses the Illustrator SDK to go through the document and extract some information. We have a script that initiates this by calling Illustrator and instructing it to run the Javascript file. This whole process works well.
To make this easier for people to use, we have a program that runs on a server and watches a special directory. When a file is dropped into that directory, this program notices, runs the script, and saves the output in another folder. This process works well, too.
To ensure that this program stays running and starts immediately when the system boots, we would like to run it as a Windows Service. This is where we run into trouble. Our program runs fine as a service, except that when we call Illustrator, it just hangs without executing our script.
I don't see any output or error messages that would help us diagnose the problem.
I was wondering if anybody else had tried calling Illustrator from a Windows Service, and maybe had some suggestions for getting it working?
Thanks!
-----Scott.

I'm afraid I don't know anything that might help you on this one. I wouldn't have thought Illustrator was doing anything that unusual that might cause running from a Service grief. The only two suggestions I can think of are ones you may already have tried:
1) check the event viewer -- there might be something there that doesn't show up in stderr or stdout
2) Try posting in the Scripting forum; it feels like they might be more likely to have tried something like this than people in here. This is typically for plugin development, thoug I don't blame you at all for posting here -- it certainly would have seemed worth a shot to me Anyways, the AI Scripting forum is in:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/illustrator/illustrator_scripting
Hopefully someone there will have tried this and can help you out. Good luck!

Calling OCCI from a windows service

Hello, I am trying to call OCCI from a windows service. And as soon as I put in the createEnvironment call the service will not load. I get an Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. Anyone else seen this problem? Any ideas?

I'm using 10.2.0.1.0 downloaded a couple of weeks ago.
My english is not so good to completelly understand your last sentence.
Nobody directed me in using OCCI in a service. I had to face the proble to let my I.R. engine write XML data into an XMLTYPE object in Oracle, I downloaded the OCCI library and samples and build some code for my test.
Everityhing seems to work properly using Clob containers, while XMLType columns can be created but I can't read the value as the result of a select.
Anyway, OCCI 10.2.0.1.0 compiled with Visual C++ 2008 (VC9) with a couple of tricks with manifest to use oraocci10.lib (built for VC8) works for me even as a service.
I have to say that this code is in a DLL that I dynamically load and use.
Does it make sense for you?

How to call RFC from Power Builder

Hi,
I am using Power Builder Tools and I want to know how can i call RFC from Power Builder
Thanks for ur reply

Hi,
Although I have not worked with Powerbuilder, I am sure if you have a certain level of proficiency with it, you will be able to code your logic that will call your wrappers written in VB/C/.NET etc. Check out the wonderful weblog by Thomas Jung on integrating ActiveX controls with ABAP Control Framework at https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/weblogs.sdn?blog=/pub/wlg/995.

Need to create a PDF Portfolio programatically using the Adobe SDK in C# from a Windows Service.

What classes/methods should I be using?
We need to create a PDF portolio from a windows service written in C#.
We need to merge several PDF documents into a single PDF portfolio from our windows service (programatically).
I have seen documentation in the Adobe help on how to do it using the Adobe UI, but we need to do this step programatically from our windows servie.
Thanks!

You can't access Acrobat from a service - since we won't run in Service mode...only in standard Application mode. In addition, we don't run on a server.
But if you were doing this from a standard application - then you'll want to read the JavaScript documentation in the SDK as well as the documents about the .NET/JS bridge.

hi all.
i want to create my own log for each interface.
i saw this blog:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2006/09/20/xi-abap-mapping-logs--more-standard-better-visibility
my doubt is how to catch the error that i see in SXI_MONITOR y put it in a Sub-Objetc.
For example: in sxi_monitor i get the error for my interface NMUCustomer: "No receiver could not be found" or "Error Mapping Traformation".
I created an Object called ZNMUCUSTOMER and a Sub-Objetc called ZERROR.
what i must do to get the error I see in monitor and assign it to Sub-Object??

Calling Java from Delphi

Can ActiveX bridge used for calling Java from Delphi?

Also trying to solve this problem, after creating the bean i packaged/registered it successfully, (tested the bean using beanbox, works perfectly) then tried calling it via createoleobject in delphi 7
(*Code Snip *)
Var
v : variant;
begin
try
v := createoleobject(Edit1.text); // my class name ie WorldPort.Bean (also tried WorldPort.Bean.1
except on e:exception do
showmessage(e.Message)
end;
end;
(*Code Snip*)
After this simple code failed i started backtracking , eventually after getting "Access Violation...etc in axbridge.dll" all the time. tried delphi "import activex control" got the same access violation.
Decided to test the example from http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/beans/axbridge/developerguide/examples.html........ they both crashed on execution (calc.exe and boundprop.exe).
After this failed I tested these example classes on another machine, both crashed again.....
Also tried this experiment in VC++ , after adding the class to the Toolbox , i try to drop it onto a form, once again access violation.**PS**
('You will need VC++ and the Microsoft SDK to build the dll, download c++beta for free from microsoft site it you need it')** and a simple cmd file todo the job would look something like this:
echo - ** Build Java ActiveX Bridge **
echo Make sure these folders exist in jre--> axbridge\lib and axbridge\bin
cd\SDK\jre\axbridge\bin
set path=%path%;C:\MSDN\Bin;C:\VisualC++\lib
echo path
javac WorldPort.java
jar cmf Manifest.txt WorldPort.jar WorldPort.class
"C:\SDK\bin\packager.exe" -clsid {162193C4-AD5C-4A06-9F88-A737AE9B43AD} -out "C:\SDK\jre\axbridge\bin" WorldPort.jar WorldPort-reg
*** After running this cmd you will find the dll in bin folder and the jar in lib folder..***
Must Read:http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/beans/axbridge/developerguide/index.html
Hope some of this helps , if you have successfully created / installed/ used a "JavaActiveX" in Delphi , i would really like to try replicate it on my machine..

Calling RFC from custom connector

Hi,
I am developing a custom connector for UWL to get tasks from 3rd party system.
I need to call a RFC from backend SAP system to complete Input data for this 3rd party provider.
I assume that I have to make an RFC call from getItems() method of connector.
Any idea how to call a RFC from UWL custom connector code?
Please help.
Thanks & Regards,
Amey

Hello Karri,
Yes, I am aware of two ways of calling RFCs from Java code.
Normally, I use following approach to call RFCs from my other Portal Components (JSPDynpages): -
IPortalComponentRequest request = (IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest();
IPortalComponentContext myContext = request.getComponentContext();
IPortalComponentProfile myProfile = myContext.getProfile();
String sapSystem = myProfile.getProperty("SystemIdentifier");
ISystemLandscapeWrapper landscapeWrapper = (ISystemLandscapeWrapper) UMFactory.getSystemLandscapeWrappers().get(0);
ISystemLandscapeObject systemLandscapeObject = landscapeWrapper.getSystemByAlias(sapSystem);
IJCOClientService clientService = (IJCOClientService) PortalRuntime.
getRuntimeResources().getService(JCO_CLIENT);
request.getNode().putValue(LOCALE_NODE_KEY, Locale.ENGLISH);
IJCOClientPoolEntry poolEntry = clientService.getJCOClientPoolEntry(sapSystem,request);
JCO.Client client = poolEntry.getJCOClient();
client.connect();
IRepository repository = JCO.createRepository("repository", client);
IFunctionTemplate functionTemplate = repository.getFunctionTemplate(Z_BAPI_EMP_GBU_GET);
JCO.Function function = new JCO.Function(functionTemplate);
JCO.ParameterList importList = function.getImportParameterList();
importList.setValue("US", "OBJTYP");
importList.setValue(request.getUser().getUniqueName(), "USRID");
client.execute(function);
JCO.ParameterList outputList = function.getExportParameterList();
gbuCountryBean.setGbu(outputList.getString("GBU"));
gbuCountryBean.setCountry(outputList.getString("COUNTRYCODE"));
gbuCountryBean.setPersArea(outputList.getString("PERS_AREA"));
gbuCountryBean.setCompanyCode(outputList.getString("COMPANYCODE"));
When I tried implementing same in UWL custom connector, I am not able to get instance of 'request' object.
Any hints/ideas on this?
Hence as an temporary alternative, I wrote following to successfully execute RFC.
mConnection = JCO.createClient(sapclient, sapuser,
sappassword, "EN", saphost, sapsysnumber);
mConnection.connect();
mRepository = new JCO.Repository("GetLeaveRequestFlag", mConnection );
IFunctionTemplate ftemplate = mRepository.getFunctionTemplate(Z_BAPI_CHECK_LR_TO_APPROVE);
myFunction = new JCO.Function(ftemplate);
JCO.Field OBJECT_TYPE = myFunction.getImportParameterList().getField("OBJECT_TYPE");
OBJECT_TYPE.setValue("US");
JCO.Field USERID = myFunction.getImportParameterList().getField("USERID");
OBJECT_TYPE.setValue(p_userID);
mConnection.execute(myFunction);
JCO.Field leaveRequestFlag = myFunction.getExportParameterList().getField("FLAG_LEAVE_REQUEST_RECORD");
mConnection.disconnect();
But only catch here is that I need to create & maintain SAP logon credentials for a particular user manually.
It is not possible to single sign on connector user into SAP system (like its done above).
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks & Regards,
Amey

Calling RFC from JSP : development component

Hi everyone,
I created JSP that call RFC from SAP/R3.
I have problem with the DestinationService.
Without DCs, it worked very good.
But since I created a DC for my JSP project, I have exception at run time regarding
the java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sap/security/core/server/destinations/api/DestinationService.
Eventhough I add the specific jar, I get an excpetion.
Thanks for the help.

Calling RFCs from Web through XI

We have used SAP.NET connector in the past to call RFCs from ASP.NET pages from our public website. We have now decided to use XI as the enterprise integration engine going forward.I am interested to know whether anybody has used XI to call RFCs from ASP.NET webpages. I do know that the XI to SAP calls would be made through RFC adapter.Will the communication from ASP.NET page to XI be thourgh the HTTP adapter ? or is there any other smarter way. Can somebody point me to sample code for the calls through http adapter or a how to guide?
cheers
Ramesh

Hi
U have scenario like this ASP.NET->XI->RFC, that means u will send a value from the ASP.NET page to RFC thru XI and then this RFC will give result which will come to ASP.NET frontend.
For this go thru this blog it will help u to understand how to communicate from ASP.NET to XI

RFC call from a Windows Service

Hi All,
I have created a simple windows service which is making an RFC call to R/3 system. This is not working. Whereas the same piece of code written in a windows application projects(exe) works properly. Does anyone had similer issues working with Windows services ? Is it a known issue of RFC calls from windows service ???
Thanks & Regards
Ganesh Datta

Hi Juergen,
After I put the debug statements I figured out that connection to R/3 system is unsuccessful.
I am using the SAP .Net Connector 2.0. I wrote a windows service which is manually started. Withing my service I am using Single sign on to connect .This is what was causing the problem. If I disable Single sign on and supply userID and password then connection is successful and also subsequent RFC calls.
I guess within windows service Single sign on does not work.
Thanks for your reply
Best Regards
Ganesh Datta

Calling SSIS package from C# Windows Service Fails

Hi All.
I've got an SSIS package that reads from an Excel file and populates a database. The Excel file location gets passed in to the package as a variable. Also the Protection Level of the package is set to EncryptSensitiveWithPassword.
This all works fine when I run the package from Visual Studio or using DTEXEC. When I try to run it from a C# Windows Service though I get the following exception:
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft Office Access Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "The Microsoft Office Access database engine cannot open or write to the file ''. It is already opened exclusively
by another user, or you need permission to view and write its data.".
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "Input Excel Connection" failed with error code 0xC0202009. There may be error messages posted before this
with more information on why the AcquireConnection method call failed.
Dedupe Worksheet failed validation and returned error code 0xC020801C.
One or more component failed validation.
There were errors during task validation.
The windows service runs with LocalSystem account and the following code is used to call the SSIS Package:
                Application app = new Application();
                Package package = null;
                app.PackagePassword = "*******";
                //Load the SSIS Package which will be executed
                package = app.LoadPackage(@"C:\Projects\DataDedupeMatch\DataDedupeMatch\DataDedupe.dtsx", null);
                //Pass the varibles into SSIS Package
                package.Variables["User::FilePath"].Value = e.FullPath.Replace(@"\\", @"\");
                Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.DTSExecResult results = package.Execute();
I would really appreciate if someone could help me out with this.
Thanks in advance,
Deon

Instead of hosting the SSIS runtime in your service, you should use a separate host process for your SSIS package. You're using the Office drivers, which aren't designed or supported for running in long-lived unattended processes like a Windows Service.
You can use your own SSIS hosting code, or just use dtexec.exe to host your package. In either case you would start the child process with
Process.Start.
