Content Conversion - How to Remove Trailer

Hi there.
I am having difficulty identifying the correct parameters to enable me to remove the trailer of a text file. The file will have a random number of data rows and there is no "key" field to identify these rows. The Trailer rows are however are fixed values. Sample file below:
DATA==> FNX7 Comdty|0|12|013
DATA==> FNZ7 Comdty|0|12|
TRAILER1==> END-OF-DATA
TRAILER2==> TIMEFINISHED
TRAILER3==> END-OF-FILE
I would appreciate any help on how to configure the Content Conversion Parameters to ignore the trailer. I have looked online and have seen many scenarios, but all involve a level of "Key Identifying" which I cannot do for the Data Fields. Is there any parameters to allow me to ignore the trailer fields??
Regards.
Mick.

File Sender, Content Conversion - how to define variable length last field?

XI 3.0 SP17
With a File Sender communication channel, that uses Content Conversion - how do I define a 'variable length' last field?
The scenario - the input file has four fields, of which the first three are a known fixed length, and the last (fourth, trailing) field is variable in length.
Using a Message Protocol of 'File Content Conversion', how do I define that last variable length field (field name 'WOData' below) in the Content Conversion Parameters section?
My current parameters are:
Recordset Structure - Row,*
ignoreRecordsetName - true
Row.fieldFixedLengths - 1,12,5,99999
Row.fieldNames - WOType,WONum,WOLine,WOData
I've tried the following for 'Row.fieldFixedLengths' to no avail -
'1,12,5,*'
'1,12,5,0'
'1,12,5,'
'1,12,5'
The last two were grasping at straws )
The only thing I've got to work is specifying a 'large' value for the final field (99999 above).
In addition, does anyone know if specifying a large value (e.g. 99999) for the final trailing field will give rise to performance issues when the file is being processed?
In the help for "Converting File Content in a Sender Adapter", it states -
<Begin Quote>
NameA.fieldFixedLengths
If you make a specification here, the system expects a character string that contains the lengths of the structure columns as arguments separated by commas.
If you also specify a separator for the columns, you must not add its length to the length of the columns.
This entry is mandatory if you have not made an entry for NameA.fieldSeparator.
<End Quote>
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm

<< note that fieldFixedLengths will not take any wildcard entries like *. So in these case it is ideal to provide a maximum char length. But note that while the file is being created that many spaces will be created in your file !!! >>
Hi Shabarish,
Yes, no wildcard is the conclusion I came to, hence my maximum )
The message size did not increase by any 'blank padding'. When I look in [Message Display Tool (Detail Display)] 'Audit Log for Message: X' -
2006-10-17 18:22:42 Success Channel X: Entire file content converted to XML format
2006-10-17 18:22:42 Success Send binary file "X" from FTP server "X", size 103290 bytes with QoS EO
2006-10-17 18:22:42 Success Application attempting to send an XI message asynchronously using connection AFW.
2006-10-17 18:22:42 Success Trying to put the message into the send queue.
2006-10-17 18:22:42 Success Message successfully put into the queue.
2006-10-17 18:22:42 Success The application sent the message asynchronously using connection AFW. Returning to application.
The input flat file in non-XML format was 92,132 bytes and the message payload into XI was 103,290 bytes.
My understanding is that trailing spaces are stripped from XML nodes.

Would anyone know how to remove a trailing delimiter that is generated as part of an MFL output or update my MFL to not produce the delimiter value at all for the last value?
Thanks,
Yusuf

Hi,
I was able to resolve this issue with some java code that performed some encode/decode of base64 data (MFL data that was supplied to the java callout turns out to be an array of byte data). After decoding the data I performed the following:
- found the string length
- identified if the string ended with the special charater, which in my case was '\x03'
- concatenated the string with the system version of a new line value.
Thanks,
Yusuf

How to remove trailing zeros using EngineeringFormatInfo?

HI,
I found a measurement studio formatter for SI notation.
For details, see the NI document.
Here, I want to know how to remove any trailing zeros. I could not find any information about this.
For example,
code : string result = string.Format(EngineeringFormatInfo.Default, {0:s5}, double value)
if value = 1.2345678E-3, result is 1.23457E-3. It is ok.
if value = 1.2E-3, result is 1.20000E-3. But I want to get "1.23m".
In labview, I usually use "%#.5p" format string.

I don't understand how you are getting 1.23457E-3 ? And claiming that is okay.
If you are using the format string that you claim you are using, then you should be getting 1.23457m.
It sounds like you are using string result = string.Format(EngineeringFormatInfo.Default, {0:E5}, value)

How to remove trailing zeros 20353675.0000000

All numeric decimal columns all are showing trailing zeros, how to remove them while processing within the query transform.
20353675.0000000
Thanks a lot for the helpful info

You can use the trunc function to remove the decimal places.
Syntax: trunc( number, [ decimal_places ] )
          <number> is the number to truncate.
         <decimal_places> is the number of decimal places to truncate to. This value must be an integer. If this parameter is omitted, the trunc function will truncate the number to 0 decimal places.
Eg:     trunc(125.815) would return 125
          trunc(125.815,0) would return 125
          trunc(125.815,1) would return 125.8
         trunc(125.815,2) would return 125.81
         trunc(125.815,-1) would return 120

Sender JMS Content Conversion - How to process multiple records

Hi All,
I use a Sender JMS Channel with Content Conversion.
My message structure is like this
<root>
<rec> </rec>
<rec> </rec>
</root>
I have fixed length flat file with multiple records.
i have given the parameters FixedFieldLength, FieldNames and StructureTitle.
Which parameter i need to use specify the RecordDelimiter
Because my input file will have more than record
my input file -
xxxx
yyyy
if i dont specify any delimiter value, in the module parameter,then for each newline of the file, a new mesage is created.
<root>
<rec>xxxx</rec>
<root>
<root>
<rec>yyyy</rec>
<root>
But i want the output to be like this
<root>
<rec>xxxx<rec>
<rec>yyyy</rec>
</root>

hi,
You can do your FCC for sender JMS by going through page 5 of this document.

How to remove trailing space at the end of a song.

This is related to this thread: Shorten song length (remove trailing bars) in Garageband 10.0.1
I have also done some Googling and have found some links related to selecting and exporting regions, which I have tried, but this is what I noticed.
It does not work when I select certain instruments, eg Synthesizer - Soundscape - Subtle Shiftscape or Synthesizer - Lead - Screamlead. I believe that what is happening is that those sounds tend to have some additional length to it. No matter where I cut my region, the additional length still get added. I don't have that problem if I don't select those instruments.
Anybody has any ideas?

Are you using GB 10.0.2 as well?
I am using both - GarageBand 10.0.2 and GarageBand '11.
And if I deselect all regions, File - Add Region to loop library is of course greyed out. Is it possible to save multiple tracks as a loop?
No.
Yep, I've deselected all regions. Still no luck.
My answer above was in answer to your "This time GB felt I only needed the first 4 measures of the song, even though I defined an entire Region over the length of the song and selected everything with Ctrl-A..."
You should be able to export the complete song, if you deselect all regions, and select all of the song using the cycle region with "Export Cycle region only" enabled, or with "Export Cycle region only" disabled, nothing selected, and the end-of-song marker correctly set.
However, this will not get rid of the trailing empty bars.
Reimport the bounced song to a new Ringtone project and trim it and save it as a tone, or to a regular project and add it to the Loop Library.
Find the AIFF file of the loop in the Loop library - it will be installed in your User Library in your Home folder
~/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/User Loops/SingleFiles/

How to remove trailing spaces in SQL PLUS spool

Hi,
I've requirement to pull data from tables and I'm using sqlplus spool to automate data fetch from various tables:
I'm using the following script for the same :

LTRIM(RTRIM(col2)) ||'|'||
LTRIM(RTRIM(col3)) ||'|'||
LTRIM(RTRIM(col4)) ||'|'||
LTRIM(RTRIM(col5)) ||'|'||

spool off
After using trimspool on option also I'm having trailing spaces issue how to fix it?
Thanks,

Hi,
do you need LTRIM/RTRIM? This is namely your problem. By using a function around your column Oracle reserves the maximum lenght for the column. So what do you get without those functions? Furthermore you are concatenating all the columns. This is also a function. For getting '|' in between columns you can also set a seperator by using
set colsep '|'Herald ten Dam

Hi,
Its good that u pasted the complete log file. In your environment you have to run this upgrade tool only once from any of the middle tier.
And with respect to your error that u got in precheck is quite simple. All u have to do is just run this script from by connecting to portal schema using sqlplus.
Run dropupg.sql
Location-------- /raid/product/OraHome_1/upgrade/temp/portal/prechktmp/dropupg.sql
Later you re-run the upgrade tool and let me know the status.
Good luck

How to remove trailing zeros from a decimal (type) value?

Hi Everyone,
I would like to 'drop' some trailing zeros from a decimal value, e.g.: 50.000000, and I am wondering how to go about this?
The value is definitely of decimal type, and in this instance I know that I want to eliminate exactly six (6) zeros.
Any help here will be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
David

Try the below:
This is sort of a display issue, you may do it at Application side, which would be efficient.
Declare @s Decimal(10,6)='50.0000000'
Select Cast(@s as decimal(10,0))

How to remove trailing carriage returns

I have this field that has chr(10) for each line at the end, however there are 2 CHR(10) at the end
I've tried replace but that didn't work also reading you can't use regexpr_replace with a negative value.
e.g.
This is line1 chr(10)
This is line 2 chr(10)
chr(10)
chr(10)
Any ideas please

If so:
RTRIM (str
, CHR (10)
I've tried replace but that didn't work also reading you can't use regexpr_replace with a negative value.It's unclear what you mean.
In regular expressions, a pattern can be anchored to the end of the string, like this
REGEXP_REPLACE ( str
, CHR (10) || '$'
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only), and the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.

Receiver JMS Adapter Content Conversion issue

Scenario :
R/3 -->XI -->MQ(XML2Plain)
Hi
We are using Receiver JMS Adapter to send the Message from XI to MQ.
The XML has to be converted to plain file. And Content conversion is
being done.
With the new development, the message type defined consist of 8 fields
with fixed length. The XML message goes successfully from XI to MQ
without any content conversion. But once simple content conversion is
being done for Receiver JMS adapter, even though the message is
received but its empty (without any data records). The adapter
monitoring everything seems fine and it gives the status that message
converted to binary and the message is delivered to MQ. Though on
checking the messages there is no data records.
Below is my content conversion configuration done in Module tab. Kindly
revert back what can be the problem as have done exactly the same way
as described in Content Conversion How to Guide for receiver JMS.

Hi,
check localejbs/SAP XI JMS Adapter/ConvertMessageToBinary Local Enterprise Bean convert_XI2Bin
this is not CallJMSService.
