Calling Java API from HBR

Hi guys,
I’m trying to use Java API to update ASO cube from Planning forms. So there are several steps:
1.     Planning form passes variables to HBR
2.     HBR passes variables and calls Java CDF
3.     CDF performs some operations and uses JAPI classes to update ASO cube.
When I run CDF as runtime command or from JDeveloper/Netbeans if works fine. When I run CDF from HBR but do not use JAVA API methods it works too. But when I call CDF from HBR AND use JAPI methods it doesn’t execute JAPI methods. I do not receive any error; methods that use JAPI methods are simply not executed.
Any ideas why it happens?
Thanks,
Dmitry

Hi,
Have you tried running it from an essbase calc script first and run the essbase server in the foreground (not as a service if you are on windows) then if you have any System.out.prints on errors or in your code they should be outputted to the window.
It usually easier to get it running from a calc script first because you sometimes get better messaging than business rules.
Cheers

Calling Java API from ABAP using JCo (Part 2)

Hello,
This is an additional question to thread Calling Java API from ABAP using JCo
Has anyone managed to get the input parameter value
input.getString("REQUTEXT")
that is being passed from ABAP?
If yes, what kind of setting you need to do? Because when I execute, it has no value.
Thus, the below ECHOTEXT parameter returns blank value:
output.setValue(input.getString("REQUTEXT"),"ECHOTEXT");
When I debug by printing the below line, the input XML is indeed without value:
System.out.println(input.toXML());
Anybody knows how to pass input variable from ABAP to JAVA using JCo?
rgs,
hiroshi

Hallo Hiroshi,
as far as I can see, you are doing it the right way. The problem might be that the ABAP program does not fill in this parameter because something went wrong in the SAP System.
Have you tried setting a breakpoint (an HTTP session - remote breakpoint) and tried checking step by step if the value is being processed and put into the REQUTEXT field?
Bye,
Sameer

Calling Java API from ABAP using JCo

I need to call Java API from ABAP & BSP also. For this I have got useful information related to JCo from following blog:
/people/gregor.wolf3/blog/2004/08/26/setup-and-test-sap-java-connector-outbound-connection
But, I am facing one problem. On executing Java program myExample5.java (recommended by Gregor Wolf) from command line I get following error message:
Server JCOSERVER01 changed state from [ STOPPED ] to [ STARTED ]
Exception in server JCOSERVER01:
com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (129) JCO_ERROR_SERVER_STARTUP: Server startup failed at Thu Apr 26 13:46:32 IST 2007.
This is caused by either a) erroneous server settings, b) the backend system has
been shutdown, c) network problems. Will try next startup in 1 seconds.
Connect to SAP gateway failed

Can anyone please help me out. Do I need to do any setting?
I'll surely reward points.
Thanks & Regards,
Nilesh Kumar

Hi Nilesh,
From the error i think that the error is with the hostname.
Please enter the the Application Server IP/Hostname.
If you are loggin to SAP System "XX1" from SAP GUI. Then click the change Item tab and see Application server name/IP let say "XX2" for hostname or "xx.xx.xx.xx" for IP.
Replace srv[0] = new Server("gateway","sapgw00","JCOSERVER01",repository);
with srv[0] = new Server("XX2","sapgw00","JCOSERVER01",repository);
If App Server is IP then replace with
srv[0] = new Server("xx.xx.xx.xx","sapgw00","JCOSERVER01",repository);
Let me know if it is throwing any error.
Thanks,
Prashil

How to call Java API from BSP?

I have a requirement to call Java API from BSP application.
I have checked the forum and found that it is possible by using some ABAP codes.
However there is no pointer on how this is done.
Can someone explain the details on how to call Java API from BSP is done?
I found class CL_EJB_JAVA_OBJECT_METHODS to call a method in EJB but can't find function or SAP class to call Java API.
Actually is there any BSP extention which can used to call Java API?
Thanks,
Hendri

check out these weblogs, it should give you an idea how to go about it.

Calling java APIs from a function module

Hi,
Can someone tell me whether it is possible to call Java APIs from a function module in SAP system?
Thanks in advance,
Vineetha

Hi,
I guess you have changed the properties of screen only.
I assume you have made a Ztransaction Code.
When you define a transaction code, you need to specify a screen number for radio option program and screen and you need to specify a screen and not subscreen.( I think so!!)
You changed only the code without changing the transaction code properties.
Therefore, i think u r getting a dump.
If you want to call your subscreen, call it in some screen and then call that screen using your transaction code properties.
To include a subscreen screen in the subscreen area of the main screen and call its PBO flow logic, use the following statement in the PBO event of the main screen:
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
CALL SUBSCREEN <area> INCLUDING <prog> <dynp>.
To call the PAI flow logic of the subscreen screen, use the following statement in the PAI flow logic of the main screen:
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
CALL SUBSCREEN <area>.

Calling Java APIs from Adobe AIR Front End

HI ,
I have developed an desktop application entirely in java.
Currently it is console based, but i am planning to have a UI for the same in Adobe Flex.
I wanted to know how do I communicate between the two, ie call methods that are defined in my java classes from AIR and return results to Adobe AIR.
There is no server involved.
I want to keep Adobe AIR as front end and Java as back end which will take care of the business logic .
Thanks and Regards,
Santoshi

The best way is probably to use the NativeProcess APIs available in AIR 2 (now in Beta).
Next, would be to use sockets to communicate between the two processes. In AIR 1.5, it is difficult to guarantee that both processes are running, at least when controlling thins from the AIR side rather than the Java side. In AIR 2, you can start other processes, so this is also easier.
There are some 3rd party tools, like Merapi, that help you pass objects between Java and AIR, too.

Call Java Program from ABAP Program

Dear all,
In our scenario, we need to let ABAP call services provided by a standalone Java program. From online help I found some overview introduction and I'd make the called program a registered program in a RFC with type "T" (TCP/IP Connection). Can anybody give some concrete documentation? A step-by-step guide would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards

Calling HRMS APIs from a DotNet plateform

Hello,
I am new on this forum and I have difficulty in beginning, i don't know if it's the right category to post my question.
I'm working in a project looking for a solution of revision of the self-service's interfaces of oracle e-business suite, indeed I need an example or a document which can help me for using the HRMS APIs of oracle e-business suite via a dotNet plateform or SharePoint application.
I have to work on a middelware allowing retreiving and persisting data from oracle e-business suite database using oracle HRMS APIs like hr_appraisals_api. So haw can i call these APIs from .NET application how can i use a .NET code to call these api's ?
Can you help me please ? i'm waiting for your answers if possible and this is my e-mail address if necessary "[email protected]" .
I would be so grateful if someone can help me. Thank you in advance.
Cordially.

HRMS PLSQL API can be called from Java and .Dot net support to execute Java API . This way it could be done.
I have not idea how call PLSQL API from direct .Dot net code.

How to call SOAP API from JavaScript

Hi,
I'm trying to call the SOAP API to get statistics about emails. Are there any examples on how to call the API from JavaScript?
Here is a link to my original question about using the REST API. REST API URL for email statistics
Thanks,
Tim

Tim,
In order to consume a SOAP API I recommend you use something other than JavaScript.
Any platform can offer you a good SOAP client should be OK. (.Net, Java, php, Ruby, python).
I didn't see anyone successfully used javascript and consume the Eloqua SOAP API.
I know you can create a SOAP client in Java script but it will be too much work to handle the Eloqua response in some cases.

Calling java classes from plsql procedures

I'm attempting to call java classes from plsql procedures which will create cmsdk users, folders, groups etc, however when I attempt to load a java class into the oracle schema using the command:
loadjava -user user/password@database -resolve classname.class
It generates error messages to the effect that classes (cmsdk classes) required by the class cannot be found. The class is loaded and marked with the status "invalid". Is it therefore necessary for me to load the cmsdk packages into the schema?
Cheers
David

Using CMSDK Java API within the database has never been supported
(see Problems loading IFS's java class into database
When we needed to invoke CMSDK code from our PL/SQL code, we used one of two approaches:
(1) use advanced queues to send requests to an external Java program (the CMSDK code, running outside the database) and receive the results back (asynchronous choice); or
(2) make an HTTP request to a Java servlet (the CMSDK code, running in some Java web container like iAS) and get the response back in some custom format (XML or something) (synchronous choice).
It seems to me that the CMSDK Java API was designed to be used only in middle-tier, not in database tier.

Daniel.

Calling Java methods from C program

After a year or so using these excellent forums to answer my queries, without ever having to post a question, I've finally had to ask for help with this one. I've already looked through the JNI tutorial, and these forums, extensively, but I'm still not quite sure of how best to solve my problem.
I need to call Java methods from a C program. I've already used JNI to call a simple C program from Java, and that's fine, but I just can't determine exactly what I need to do for the reverse to work.
What is the definitive solution for calling Java from C? Is it to use the invocation APIs to create a JVM, and then access it through the various GetMethod, FindClass methods? Or can I 'reverse engineer' the process I followed to get Java to call C?? The tutorial is a bit confusing, as the example it gives uses Callback stuff, but I guess that's only useful when you want to go Java-C-Java??
Advice appreciated,
Rich

Forgive my blatant bumping, but anyone, please?

How to call OIM API from external app?

Hi,
I have an java application and I would like to call OIM API to accept a request. The application resides in separate server than OIM.
My questions:
*1.* What to do to call OIM API from external application (import any OIM jars etc.)?
*2.* Which method to use, setRequestResponse , closeRequest or any other?
I appreciate any help, thanks.
Edited by: m.m. on Feb 2, 2010 5:33 AM

Hello,
If it is an external client, you need to provide the "login" and "password" details explicitly in the code (something like this), before getting any other Interface control to invoke the OIM APIs -
public class OIMAPIClientTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try{
System.out.println("Starting...");
ConfigurationClient.ComplexSetting config = ConfigurationClient.getComplexSettingByPath("Discovery.CoreServer");
Hashtable env = config.getAllSettings();
tcUtilityFactory ioUtilityFactory = new tcUtilityFactory(env,"xelsysadm","abcd1234");
System.out.println("Getting utility interfaces...");

Error while calling java program from ABAP

Hi Experts,
We are trying for RFC inbound scenario.
We followed the below blog
/people/gregor.wolf3/blog/2004/08/26/setup-and-test-sap-java-connector-outbound-connection
We are working with SAP JCO 3.0.2
We are getting the error : 'STFC_CONNECTION' could not be found in the server repository.
After I run the Java server program if I execute the RFC destination directly from SM 59 it is showing successful messages.
If I stop the java program then this RFC is failing. Based on this we concluded that RFC to Java connection is working fine.
But as mentioned in blog if we call the RFC Destination from ABAP program it is giving the below error,
'STFC_CONNECTION' could not be found in the server repository.
If we test the RFC destination using RFC_TRUSTED_CHECK standard FM we are getting the below error.
'RFCPING' could not be found in the server repository.
We create the RFC destination of Type : TCP/IP as exactly mention in the blog.
Please help us in resolving this issue.
Thanks
Prince

Pabi,
Using the RFC connection,we can establish a link between Java and SAP.
Afterwards,hope we can call Java program from ABAP.
Below is the sample piece of code to establish RFC connection(link) between Java and SAP.
DATA: REQUTEXT LIKE SY-LISEL,
      RESPTEXT LIKE SY-LISEL,
      ECHOTEXT LIKE SY-LISEL.
DATA: RFCDEST like rfcdes-rfcdest VALUE 'NONE'.
DATA: RFC_MESS(128).
REQUTEXT = 'HELLO WORLD'.
RFCDEST = 'JCOSERVER01'. "corresponds to the destination name defined in the SM59
CALL FUNCTION 'STFC_CONNECTION'
   DESTINATION RFCDEST
   EXPORTING
     REQUTEXT = REQUTEXT
   IMPORTING
     RESPTEXT = RESPTEXT
     ECHOTEXT = ECHOTEXT
   EXCEPTIONS
     SYSTEM_FAILURE        = 1 MESSAGE RFC_MESS
     COMMUNICATION_FAILURE = 2 MESSAGE RFC_MESS.
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
    WRITE: / 'Call STFC_CONNECTION         SY-SUBRC = ', SY-SUBRC.
    WRITE: / RFC_MESS.
ENDIF.
