Concatenations in UDF in P6

Hi there,
I am trying to concatenate a literal with a field. For example, if the field was CurrentPhase, and this was SQL, I would be doing this...
'In ' || CurrentPhase.
I know that literals are in double-quotes but I can't seem to crack what the operator would be.
I have tried the following (concatenating two literals together).
"In " || " Some other literal"
"In " + " Some other literal"
"In " && " Some other literal"
"In " & " Some other literal"
And even ...
CONCAT("In ", "Some other literal")
Has anyone any ideas? We are using Primavera, P6, R 8.2
Thanks

Hi Kamlesh,
What is your SAP Version and Patch Level ?
I tested the same what you are mentioned but iam not face any problem the whole text
will be pasted propertly in my UDF.
You Create a another UDF and test it.

UDF needed for Strin Concatenation.

Dear Friends,
I am new to XI The requirement is like.
"In order to map field E1EDL20-VBELN, Concatenate field CH_VBELN with 00 in the left side.
For example if we have in the file ""80008000"" as a value of field CH_VBELN then the field E1EDL20-VBELN will be mapped with 0080008000.
E1EDL20-VBELN = 0080008000"

Hi,
Use Constant as 00 and use Concatanate function and mapp CH_VBELN and constant field to the target field E1EDL20-VBELN
Ex:
Constant(00)
Cocatenate----
E1EDL20-VBELN
CH_VBELN

If so please suggest the requred imports.

UDF: How to convert string with sign into integer

Hi
I have a number e.g 123456 (xsd:string) and sign - or + (xsd:string) and both are concatenated and fed into UDF. I want this string to be converted into Integer. If I use the below kind of statement it is not working and throwing the below error.
int BilledAmount = Integer.parseInt(b[0]);
Exception:
RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformation: Exception:[java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "+000000000006684"]
Any guess on this issue ??
Regards
Kumar

Hey buddy,
Hope you are doing gr8, I'm getting ready leaving this friday..:-)
Aamir b[0] doesn't correspond to the first character of the string. He has multiple input values, hence he is using Context. See my structure and UDF I mentioned above, actually the above is his requirement I believe.
Yes, If you have + symbol in front of String and if you try to conver to Integer object it will throw an exception. Coz it doesn't make sense to add + symbol at all. if you don't have any sign in front it implies it's positive, am I right? But in case of negative, you need to explicitly include - symbol in front.
This is the reason that java couldn't able to convert the string that has + symbol in front, but it can in case it has - symbol in front.
I hope it clears a bit..

UDF: Mapping query-------Urgent

hi...
I m doing a scenario from File to JDBC. I have the following requirement.
Source:
Field1
Field2
On the target side i should be able to insert into database such that in column FIELD i get:
Field1
Field2
This new line can be incorporated by concatenating Field1 with '|| chr(10) ||'
which is used in Oracle for inserting a new line.
But now i am facing a problem. The database is treating '|| chr(10) ||' as a string and instead of getting Field2 on a new line i am getting the inserted row as:
Field1 || chr(10) || Field2.
Please help me resolve this.

Hi,
A simple solution this is to write an UDF.
You can write a code in UDF as below
Pass a as an argument.
String c;
c = a + "\n"
return c;
use this c as variable in query.

Fixed length concatenation

Hi,
I am working on a scenario wherin i have to concatenate fields(around 30) on the source side and map it to a single target field.I have to map it as a fixed length i.e., if a field on the source side is of length 10 and if we pass only 5 characters, the remaining 5 plsces should be spaces and the next field should start from the 11th position as shown below
source        data                           target              concat data(with spaces)
filed1(10)       abcd                            field                    abcd      123
field2(5)         123
Can any one please help me in solving this.
Thanks,
Vikram

Hi,
UDF can be used to solve your problem. A UDF can hold 20 input fields. So, you have to use 3 UDFs. In the First two UDF, you can concatenate the input fields and also check for the spaces. In third UDF, you will be concatenating the Output of First two UDF.
Concatenation can be done as : String3 = String2 + String1 in the UDFs.
I hope this would solve your problem.

Concatenating texts from multiple IDoc segments

Hi everybody!
I have to concatenate log texts supplied via IDoc segments into one string. There can be zero or more segments, each with one line of the long text. The result should be one single string field filled with all the lines concatenated.
What's the easiest way to achieve this result? Do I need a user-defined function or can I code this using standard built-in funtions (this solution would be preferred)?
Regards,
Joerg

Use the UDF with the following logic.
Take the input type as Queue of the Segments
Concatenate the temp = temp + a<i> in the loop
return the temp.
<b>UDF as follows:</b>
String temp = " ";
for(int i=0; i< a.lenght; i++)
temp = temp + a<i>
return temp;
Your probelm will solve with the above UDF.
Warm Regards,
Vijay

Concatenation Aggregate

Are we actually going to get a string concatenation aggregate in SQL Server 2008?? I am so sick of having to write a UDF for every concatenation I want to do. I am well aware of all the methods available to do it now, and they are all junk, and the performance is horrible. I'm sure it is a challenging problem, and there are known pitfalls, but its time to address these.
The notion that it is the responsibility of the front end to do the concatenation is pure bs. You don't dump 10,000 rows to your report server when you only need to display 1000, just so you can concatenate one lousy column.
I want to be able to write:
SELECT CustName, SUM(ProductPrice), CONCAT(ProductName, [my separator], ORDER OVER ProductName ASC)
FROM Orders
And I'm not going to stop complaining til I get it! (-;

This is just the 'wrong' place for your compliant to have an 'real' effect.

Udf Data is not being displayed in the report

Hi all,
i have designed one report in which i am displaying some udf fields along with other system fields.
i have not used any selection criteria.
when i run report it doesn't display udf data of some random rows in the report even if data is peresent in that udf field.
If i open sales order and press 'Shift-F2' and update the document and now if i run report then i get that udf value in the report.
why this happening. data is there in the udf field only its not displayed in the report with out updating the that udf.
pls suggest some solution.

Hi Ashish,
I ran the "ZPS/!ZPS" in RSRT where ZPS is the infoset name. In Dev, it displayed the values. In QA, it displayed the below messages:
ECharacteristic 0TCAKYFNM does not exist. Check authorizations
WThere are calculated elements. These results are bracketed [ ]
and below that, it displayed the values for Number of records. But, it has not displayed the values for the other figures.
Does this has any impact in QA.

Error while creating an UDF in a PI 7.1 Mapping

Hi experts,
I'm having problems after creating an UDF in a Message mapping. I receive the error:
the length 0 of the array 'sortedFunctionKeys' is not equal to the number 1 of functions.
It seems like forgeting initializing something...
Regards
Gonzalo

Upgrading my JDK to 1.6 in my PC almost solved the problem. Anyway, sometimes that happens again.
What I actually do:
1.-Creating my Message Mapping
2.-Saving it
3.-Developping my UDF
The problem occcurs when you create an UDF and just in that moment you don't save it. It will be a bug...
Hope that helps you

Get dynamic filename in a Java Mapping (NOT UDF)

Hi,
we are using a Java Mapping step in XI (not UDF). We need to have access to the filename. In the File Adapter we set the message attributes and can see the filename value in the SXMB_MONI.
We use the following code fragment to have access to the filename:
Container container = new Context(new FunctionWrapper(0));
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String sourceFileName = conf.get(key);
This doesn't work. We think the declaration of the container class is wrong. Does anybody have some information about using the dynamic attributes in Java Mappings?
Thanks in advance
