Char infoobject name length

Hi,
I'm working with SAP_BW 3.50 version and I try to create characteristic infoobject with name length = 11(some already created infoobjects have that name length), but the system allows me to type only 9 symbols to 'Char.' input field.
Thanks in advance,
Fiodar.

Hi Fiodar,
I remember, I had this experience in the past.
If you create infoobject from infosource mainteance screen it allows you a length.
But if you create from RSD1..It allows different length.
Try these :
Try creating infobject from
-RSA1 --Infoobject catalog
-RSA1 -Infosource maintenance..a button on toolbar
-RSD1- Infoobject maintenance.
Did you observe any difference.

Hierarchy leaves have different InfoObject name than the value

Hi,
I am working on an hierarchy and loaded data to BW. I noticed that when I expanded the tree, the right side of the leaves saids 0COSTCENTER but the left hand side of the leaves has the department values. Would this be a prolem for reporting or any purposes for use of hierarchies? I was told that the 0COSTCENTER should display the InfoObject name ZDEPT instead.
Thanks
Will

Hi Voodi,
Actually I was wondering if you could give me some insights on this. We are working with a 2 level hierarchy. That is
Costcenter1
   -Dept 1
   -Dept 2
   -Dept 3
Cost center2
   -Dept 4
   -Dept 5
   -Dept 6
Etc...
We would want a manager from cost center 1 to only look at data from those departments from cost center 1 and not any other cost centers. We are building this hierarchy to check the authorizations.
Would recommend doing this even though I think we could do this with attributes and navigationsal attributes instead of hierarchy because it is only 2 levels.
Is there a way to do authorizations using navigational attributes?
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Will

Limitation on principal name length due to propagation?

Is there a limitation on the java.security.Principal name length due to the underlying
implementation of the security context propagation, even though it is a java.lang.String?

Field name lengths

The field name lengths in the Citadel database are approaching 80 characters when Citadel adds the total path to each field. I am saving data from a process running on computer #1 to computer #2. I am using OPC and to select the analog input values require an extremely long length to the field names.
i.e.
"\\Dispatchbd1\Freq_Process\FreqOPC.'OPC DAQ Items'.'Analog Input'.'PHS Narrow Freq'" is just one of my field names. When you have 75 values in a database that you want to look at this long name gets discouraging. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Wapa,
You are right the names are a bit long. Citadel stores the absolute names (includes computer and process name), to make sure the names are unique. For example if process1 and process2 have both Pot1 and you are storing the data to the same database, unless you log it with a process name and computer name you would get a conflict - (if there is just Pot1 you would not know from which process).
So, the computer and process parts are always there. The Item name has to be also included, but you have more choise there. The member ('OPC DAQ Items'.'Analog Input'.''PHS Narrow Freq') can be aliased to anything you want (and is valid). Go to the Edit database - select the item in the second window - select the datatype - type in alias (for example item1) - check the log to
historical database and hit save (you are going to get a warning - don't worry about it, just make sure the alias (item1) you typed is is not already an existing item - because of the folder structure exposed by DAQ OPC you'll be fine).
Now instaed of using "\\Dispatchbd1\Freq_Process\FreqOPC.'OPC DAQ Items'.'Analog Input'.'PHS Narrow Freq'" you can go with "\\Dispatchbd1\Freq_Process\FreqOPC.item1" - you can stop loggin the original member.
If you need to go even shorter, you can create an expression object for every member you want to log and then log the expression. Then you get to something like:
"\\Dispatchbd1\Freq_Process\Exp1"
I hope this helps.

Report Name Length Problem

Hies
Guys I've a problem in oracle report calling from Oracle FORMS. I am using reports and forms 6i. When the report name length is more than 30 characters the report engine runs first time correctly but on the second call of report the system gives an error :
" RWRBE60.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows.You will need to restart the program ".
After this error the report engine closes and i have to call the report again.
Is there a length fixed for reports name in Oracle 6i.
Is any possible solution available.
Remember i dont want to shorten my report names.
Kindly help me with this.
Thanx.

There may be a limit, but I'm not aware of any. I never ran accross a limit. You may try the latest patch to see if it helps. What is your exact Developer version?
But I really have never seen report names of more than 10 characters or so. Almost every application has some short program coding, like xyz_0010.rep, r_emp.rep etc.
Do you mean the the name including the full path is more than 30 characters? If you put the path in the REPORTS60_PATH variable, your report names don't have to include the path.

How to get the infoobject name in runtime?

Hi,
I have a variable which is used by several queries. I can get the query name at run time through using the SAP memory (IMPORT compid = lv_compid FROM MEMORY ID 'COMPID'.).
Now I want to get the Infoobject name in run time, is that possible through the same way?When yes, what is the memory ID?
When no, how can I get it in RUN Time?
best regards

Hi,
no, I m not using customer exit. I m using master data read class.
When the user klick the search help of the variable by the beginning of the query, the masterdata class will be called. I want to get the infoobject name of the variable in this class in run time

Font name length limitation...

Hello all,
I have a serious problem related with .PFB font files. Is there any relation between font name length; I checked and if font name length is more than 30 characters I am getting an error that "the requested file C:\....\....Pfm,C:\....\....Pfb was not a valid font file". Although I am using the same way to install all fonts.
Please help me and give me any solution. Please let me know if there any limitation with windows XP, or its a limitation of Type 1 fonts.
Thanks in advance and pardon my English.
Thanks........

I believe the answer is "both" for practical purposes. Although, my recollection would have been that the limit was 31 characters, not 30.

Zip.ZipInputStream cannot extract files with Chinese chars in name

Dear friends,
Peace b upon u!
I am trying to read a zip file (~3000 files)containing one
or more files with Chinese, Japanese or Korean names, the
getNextEntry method throws an IllegalArgumentException as below after extracting just ~300 files as below:-
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
        at java.util.zip.ZipInputStream.getUTF8String(Unknown Source)
        at java.util.zip.ZipInputStream.readLOC(Unknown Source)
        at java.util.zip.ZipInputStream.getNextEntry(Unknown Source)
        at testZipFiles.getZipFiles(testZipFiles.java:65)
        at testZipFiles.main(testZipFiles.java:18) issue:java.util.zip.ZipInputStream cannot extract files with Chinese chars in name
Category java:classes_util_jarzip
Plz let me know 1 of the ways which I can solve this issue.
1)if someone has JAVA DCOMPILER plz send the SOURCE Code
for the ZipInputStream.class to me..I need to edit it using 1 of the solutions as provided below which I googled.
2)If there is an alternate or upgraded java.util.zip.ZipInputStream or any org.apache.tools.zip.* package which can read such files..If yes where I can download the same on net.
3)Any other easier solution, which can let me extract all files (by excluding Chinese files thru CATCH) without the extractor process to fail altogether.
On net I found that the only solution with this is:-
- edit the new ZipEntry, remove the static initializer that calls
the native methods initIDs().
this step seems a bit scary, but it's according to the
workaround
to bug #4244499 (the workaround of Olive64, THU JUN 05
01:55 P.M. 2003),
that handles a similar bug at the ZipOutputStream.
Now you have a ZipInputStream that supports multi-bytes
entry names.
to extract the zip file, using the fixed code that is offered
above,
create a function that gets an "encoding" string, a "destPath"
string
and a "sourceFile" (zipped) and does :
ZipInputStream zipinputstream = null;
ZipEntry zipentry;
zipinputstream = new ZipInputStream(new FileInputStream
(sourceFile),encoding);
zipentry = zipinputstream.getNextEntry();
while (zipentry != null) { //for each entry to be extracted
    String entryName = zipentry.getName();
    int n;
    FileOutputStream fileoutputstream = new FileOutputStream
( destPath + entryName );
    while ((n = zipinputstream.read(buf, 0, 1024)) > -1)
        fileoutputstream.write(buf, 0, n);
    fileoutputstream.close();
    zipinputstream.closeEntry();
    zipentry = zipinputstream.getNextEntry();
}//while
zipinputstream.close();

Hi friend,
We'd better to ask one question in each thread. If you have another issue, you can consider to open up a new thread in this forum.
Now for the first question, do you mean this picture? It throws access exception in archive2.
If so , because your extractPath is a path, not a directory.You should add +"xxx.zip". For more information, please refer to
ZipFile.Open
Method (String, ZipArchiveMode).
For the second question, you can use the following code to skip the error message.
while (true)
try
//do something;
catch (Exception ex)
{ continue; }
Good day!

How to find the Infoobject name by Datasource .

Hi SAP Gurus
Can any of you guys suggest how to find the list of Info objects for the Datasources .
I have a scenario where I have a list of Datasources (400) which are Text and Attr Datasources,
for which I need find the list Info objects,
so can you please tell me is there any way that I can find the List of Info objects.
Thanks

Hi Rahul,
You can make use of RSOSFIELMAP for your requirement.
Go to Se16----->rsosfieldmap.
You can see several fields as selections among them you could find Info object and Field selections as well.
If you give infoobject name in selection, it will display all the data sources where it is available.
If you give Filed also it will display the same.
If you want to maintian document do Top Down Analysis from Bw stand right from Data target-->update rule--->infosource
Hope this helps

File Name Length

Hi All,
While down loading .csv file, i can get my file name length dynamicallly upto 157 bytes but not getting more than that.
I have a requirement to download very long file name. Can any one please suggest me a good solution?.
My code is
response.setContentType(contentType);
                    response.setCharacterEncoding("WINDOWS-932");
                    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition",
                              "attachment; filename="
                                        + URLEncoder.encode(fileName, "UTF-8"));-vignesh

It seems there is no restrictions in filename's maxlength.
However, if you check the section 2.3 of this link
[http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2183.html|http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2183.html]
It says:
It is important that the receiving MUA not blindly use the suggested
filename. The suggested filename SHOULD be checked
(and possibly changed) to see that it conforms to local filesystem conventions,
does not overwrite an existing file, and does not present a security problem
(see Security Considerations below).I tried to test filename's maxlength with different browsers and found that results differ with browsers.
The HTTP response header nevertheless contained the full filename.
Above all, IMO avoiding long filename is the best solution.

Creating RKF in Query Designer using Nav Attr of a Nav Char InfoObject

Hi
SCENARIO
I have a Char InfoObject POSTFI[POSTFI is Navigational Attr] with 3 Navigational Attributes included in the InfoCubes.
1. ZINREPIND Reporting Indicator
2. ZFITMCD01 Statement 01 Financial Item
3. ZPCNR1 Profit Center Indicator
NOTE: All the above mentioned Nav Attr are properly set as Nav Attr and Active, Check and Rechecked.
We have 2-InfoCubes Current and Historical[both have same Structure].
A MultiProvider is build using the above 2-InfoCubes and the Char InfoObject PostFi is included in the MultiProvider.
Now I am trying to Create a Report using Query Designer and in that I have to Create a RKF[GrossSales1] and
the Condition for which is KeyFigure=FINAMT, where POSTFI_ZFITMCD01 = 5010, POSTFI_ZPCNR1= Y
PROBLEM
I can see the Nav Attr ZINREPIND, ZFITMCD01, ZPCNR1 in the main Screen of the Query Designer's LeftHandSide Pane containing KeyFigures and Dimenions under Dimension Financial=> PostFi=> Nav Attr ZINREPIND, ZFITMCD01, ZPCNR1.
While creating the RKF on KeyFigure FINAMT I am just able to see the InfoObject POSTFI[in its resp Dimension] in the
Display RKF GrossSales1 Screen in the Left Hand Side Pane where we see the KeyFigures and Dimensions.
But I am NOT able to see the Nav Attr's ZINREPIND, ZFITMCD01, ZPCNR1 anywhere in the LHS Pane of the Display RKF GrossSales1 Screen.
Now I cant Create the RKF bcoz I cant see the 3NavAttr's of Char InfoObject PostFi it the LHS Pane and the 2-Nav Attr required for creating the RKF.
Can anyone PLEASE let me know How can I see/bring these Nav Attr ZINREPIND, ZFITMCD01, ZPCNR1 in the LHS Pane of the RKF Creation Screen to add them to make my RKF ?
Thanx in Advance

Hi
As per your explanation, below are the details
POSTFIPOSTFI --- This is navigational attribute which has below 3 objects as navigation attrs.
1. ZINREPIND Reporting Indicator
2. ZFITMCD01 Statement 01 Financial Item
3. ZPCNR1 Profit Center Indicator
first one, could you please confirm whether POSTFIPOSTFI is main info object or it is attribute of another info object.
If it is attribute of another info object, then the last attibutes(3) are called Transitive attribute(attributes attribute).
Reporting on Transitive attributes is only possible with the creation Info Sets.
If my guess is correct, then create Info Set based two info cube now create the query.
Hope it will work
Regards,
Venkatesh.
