Copying attribute values in OIM

Hi Experts,
Please suggest me the solution for below requirement.
1. I am having the original attributes "Cost center name " and Cost center Number".But i have to copy these values and stored into attributes "old cost center name" and "Old cost center number"
once its done,giving new values in cost center name and cost center number has to store the new values.
Thanks in advance.
Reddy.

HI Redyy,
You can write java code which will copy the original values to the new variable and after that you can assign new value to the original variable.
Thanks,
ST

Copying attribute values in xsl transformation

Hi
Does anyone know how to copy attribute values in a transfomation generated in a routing rule of a ESB routing service.
When I inspect the generated xsl (after mapping elements), I can see that the xsl:value-of is used and therefore the element attributes of the original message are lost.
Specifically when an element contains the xsi:nil attribute, I want to copy it to the target message.
Suggestions would be greatly appreciated,
Ruud

Hi Nathalie,
Thanks for your reply.
I would like to elaborate a bit on our problem because I feel that we haven't reached a satisfactory solution yet.
We are using ESB database adapters to perform DML operations on the database. However we expose these adapters using routing services to allow us to use filters, content based routing etc.
Consider this example:
I want to perform an update on a row in the database. If my soap call contains an empty element, this element will be ignored. If I want this the corresponding attribute in the database set to NULL then I have to add the xsi:nill="true" attribute to the element in my message. This works great when invoking the database adapter directly but when you place a routing service in front of it, the transformation will wipe out the xsi:nill="true" attribute on the element causing the database adapter to ignore the element instead of updating to NULL.
We have found two workarounds:
detectommissions="false" setting in the wsdl of the database adapter. All empty elements in the message will cause an update to NULL in the database. This means that for every update you always have to have all values in your message to prevent unwanted updates to NULL.
Add a choose / when / otherwise construction in the transformation of the routing service. If the source element is empty we add an empty element in the destination message containing an xsi:nill="true" attribute, otherwise we just copy the value.
This construction should be added for each attribute that must be updateable to null.
Both of these solutions are not satisfactory because they eliminate the choice whether an empty element in the invoking soap call should be ignored or used to trigger an update to null.
We would like to be able to detect the xsi:nill="attribute" on the invoking call and propagate this attribute to the call to the database adapter.
Kind regards,
Ruud

Updating Schdedule Task Attributes values in OIM through our Code.

Hi Guys,
My Requirement is that I should be able to update the schedule task attributes through my reconciliation code. I tried my level best to find some API but unable to locate the API's to update the schedule task attribute.
I used to following funciton to update the schedule task attribtue value:
public void updateScheduleTaskAttribute(long scheduledTaskKey,
long taskAttributeKey,
java.util.Map attributes)
This API found is in the tcSchedulerOperationsIntf interface. However, I am unable to find any API to retrieve the scheduledTaskKeyand taskAttributeKey parameters for the currently executing schedule task. Currently, we use the getAttribute(String) method to retrieve the schedule task attributes. I would be very grateful if you could guide me on how to obtain the scheduledTaskKey. If I am able to get that, I think it would be possible to obtain the taskAttributeKey, though do let me know if there is a better approach to get this also.
I would be highly obliged if someone could tell me some better way or a code snippet through which I can update the schedule task attribute values.
Thanks in advance,
Akki :-)

Thanks a lot kevin for your reply,
Actually there are some attributes which doesn't makes sense if they reside in IT Resources as IT Resource are meant for keeping connection parameters which will be used during provisioning. For ex: Last Reconciled Record, Last Reconciled Timestamp. These two attributes doesn't makes sense if they reside in IT Resources.
I hope you understood my requirements.
Hoping a ray of light :-)
Thanks in advance,

How to transform attribute values in OIM?

I need to transform the values received for OrgUnit to AD format and then perform provisioning.
Example: I receive OrgUnit: it/admin/oracle/com.
I need to convert it to the following AD format before provisioning user to the correct OU
OrgUnit: ou=it,ou=admin,dc=oracle,dc=com
Question: Do I have to write java code to perform this transformation or can I create a lookup table that maps all expected OrgUnit values to the AD format values and have AD read that lookup table. Any thoughts on performing this transformation using OIM features instead of java code are appreciated.
Thanks!

Done.
Code can be found below in case anyone else has a need for this or something similar.
Best regards

OIM 11g: Target account attribute value enforcement/policy

We have some requirements around enforcing certain attribute values on our target platforms. For example, if we provision a field "Approval Limit=$100", and on a recon that value has been changed to "Approval Limit=$5000", then appropriate action should be taken (i.e. change it back to $100, notify somebody, etc.)
This type of feature was available on some other IDM products I've worked with, but there does not seem to be anything built in to OIM to support this.
My initial thoughts were to write task adapters against the Recon Insert/Update Received events and perform these types of checks and corrections there.
Has anyone else run into this requirement in OIM? How did you solve it?

There are three ways to handle such scenarios:
Process Task: Attach a task on Reconciliation Task
Event Handler/Entity Adapter
Schedule Task

ImportNode() does not import attribute values

I want to import one part of xml document into another xml document. I use the Document.importNode() method to do this. Here's my code snippet:
Document newdoc = db.newDocument();
Node importedNode = newdoc.importNode(xmlnode,true);
But as the result the xml part is copied into importedNode, but attribute values are empty. What do I do wrong? I'm really lost, so thanks for ANY help.

Well, the importNode() method should do this. But while using Xerces (I must use this one (currently in 1.4.4 version), not any other parser) you'll find out there is a bug in this method. It could work for you (maybe), but for me it just removes all the attribute values. So I'm still looking for an answer.
I wrote one very simple (not generic, which is enough for my case) method to just hack the behaviour, and I entered bug to Xerces bugzilla, but nobody cares ;O( for it. Sad, but true.

Modify New VO but not able to see Attribute Value.

Hi ,
I am facing one problems during my VO extend. I have done below step,
1) Created new XXCustomVO based on exsiting CustomVO.Created new Attribute, modify SQL and mapped and gave new Name XXCustomInfoVO.
2) Assign this new XXCustomVO to new filed with Attribute name.
4) Copy XXCustomVO.xml and all class file from Desktop to Server in respecitve folder.
5) Import Page regions which i have created New Item.
6) Import with JPXImport.("Porject substitutions" )
7) Now I run the page no errors found but not able to see new attribute Data.
Then I checked "About Page" but everything is refected correctly only not able to see new attribute data.
Can you please help me out. Is there any wrong thing i am doing or something is missing still.
Thanks

Hi ,
Even exsiting attribute value alos not display. I mean I have 20 attribute in this exsiting VO and I have add one more XX attribute and same as XXVO but non of value is display out of 21 attibute.
Even i have hard coded "1234" for this attribute but always return null.
Where I have to foucs.

Protecting the attribute value from getting reset!

Hello all,
I have attached a custom drop down search help to the attribute "SERVICE_UNIT_NAME" in the "BTPARTNERSET" context node. The drop down list contains a blank entry as well as a couple of other entries, I have placed a create object statement for my search help class in the Getter method "GET_V_SERVICE_UNIT_NAME" while written the following code in the setter method "GET_P_SERVICE_UNIT_NAME" as suggested by one of the esteemed experts here on the forum.
case iv_property.
when if_bsp_wd_model_setter_getter=>fp_fieldtype.
rv_value = cl_bsp_dlc_view_descriptor=>field_type_picklist.
endcase.
This drop down list is showing correctly, however my problem is that if the user selects any value from the drop down list, the selected value gets copied to the attribute but when ever the user press an "ENTER KEY" or any other action, the value in the attribute gets initialized to the first value in the drop down list which is a "BLANK" value. I want to preserve the value originally selected by the user from the drop down list, without it being reset by any other user actions on the screen. Do I need to redefine any other method for this attribute? I'll appreciate any help.
Regards,

Naresh and Sumit, many thanks for your valuable inputs however, I have tried your code but I am still facing the same issue, as the attribute value for "SERVICE_UNIT_NAME" is getting refresh every time an "ENTER" is pressed on the page. Let me specify some other detail that may help in understanding this behaviour for the attribute value, actually when on the initial page, user has to enter his phone no / network ID, so that the standard functionality bring about the city, postal code, country etc. so once these values are set in the related attributes, the user will click on the incident button, which brings about a search help (web dialogue) for partner selection, so any value selected, is displayed afterwards in the "SERVICE_UNIT_NAME" attribute on the next page. However, after putting the custom drop down list at the said attribute, the value selected on the previous page is not populating in the attribute and the user can select the value from the custom drop down list now, but once he press "ENTER" or pushes any other button the page, the selected value in the attribute gets initialized. Is there a way to check for the user input?

Select XML Node by a specific attribute value

I am newbie for LifeCyle.
This might be an easy question, but it really got me here.
I am trying bind xml data into a Drop-Down List. The databinding is working fine, but I would like to have more specific node selected from the xml file by using a attribute value.
for example Code in AS 3.0
root.node.(@id=="1").subNode
How could i do the same thing in LifeCycle Designer 8.0
Thank you in advance!!!

there's no native method for this, maybe you should create some functions for this. just like
private function setAttribute(node:XML, name:String, value:String, index:int = -1):void
    var attrs:XMLList = node.attributes().copy(),
        l:int = attrs.length();
    if(index == -1 || index > l - 1)
        node.@[name] = value;
    else
        delete node.@*;
        var idx:int = 0;
        for (var i:int = 0; i < l + 1; i++)
            if(i == index)
                node.@[name] = value;
            else
                var attr:XML = attrs[idx];
                node.@[attr.name()] = attr.toString();
                idx++;
and use it like this:
setAttribute(myNode, "otherAttribute", "abc", 0);

Xml/html to jsp - problem with quotes in attribute values

I am trying to convert a static html document into a jsp using an xsl stylesheet, but run into problems trying to use the jsp expression syntax inside of attribute values.
Here is a sample of the source file:
<input type="text" name="firstName" value=""/>
Here is what I want the resulting jsp file to look like:
<input type="text" name="firstName" value="<jsp:expression>customer.getField("firstName") </jsp:expression>">
Here is what part of my stylesheet looks like:
<xsl:template match="input">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="@type"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="@name"/>
<xsl:attribute name="value">
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"><jsp:expression></xsl:text>
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">customer.getField(</xsl:text>
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">"</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="@name"/> ")
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">")</xsl:text>
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"></jsp:expression></xsl:text>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
The problem i have is with the <%= customer.getField("firstName") %>. I have tried several different ways of inserting the double quotes around firstName, but no matter what I try, it always uses the entity reference instead of actually putting the " character. The jsp container will not accept the entity.
I am assuming that the problem is with trying to place double quotes inside of an attribute value. Any ideas how to get around this?
Thanks
David

Which App Server are you using?
You should just be able to escape the double quotes.
If that doesn't work, it's a bug in the app-server.
Alternatively, you can use single quotes around the
attribute value.
Hope that helps,
AlexSorry, I'm an idiot. By escaping you meant the unicode character escape "\u0022". I had not tried that. However, once i realized what you meant, I tried it, and it worked. Thanks for your help.

试着修改 ‘AutoTargetGrayValue’ 属性值，但是MAX会无相应并死掉。
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sometimes, camera firmware is the problem. Sometimes, the camera XML file is the problem. Sometimes, the way that IMAQdx tries to force settings onto the camera is the problem.
Things to try:
1. Check with the manufacturer, and ask if new firmware is available for the camera. If the firmware cannot be updated by the end user, you will need to get a Returm Merchandise Authorization number, and send the camera in for the upgrade.
2. Edit the XML file that was downloaded from the camera, and remove all references to CameraAttributes::AutoFunction::AutoTargetGrayValue. Do not alter, or remove the zip file that resides in the same location as the XML. If you do, IMAQdx will request a fresh copy from the camera, and overwritew your changes. You can find the XML file in C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-IMAQdx\Data\XML
3. Edit the camera .icd file in C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-IMAQdx\Data, and remove the reference to CameraAttributes::AutoFunction::AutoTargetGrayValue.

Setting QueryDescriptor's attribute values programmatically

Hi all,
How can I set the attribute value(s) in a query descriptor programmatically? From the query descriptor you can get a handle on a particular attribute criterion which has a getValues() but no setValues(). Can this be done?
Also, is it possible to programmatically switch a query panel from basic mode to advanced mode and vice versa?
I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.7
Thanks,
Bill

Hi Timo,
Your suggestion worked after a little bit of tinkering around. I assumed that AttributeCriterion makes a defensive copy of the list before returning it, however this isn't the case. In fact. it returns a list of type FaceCtrlSearchingBinding$AdfCriterionValues which does not behave as expected.
The following prints null:
List values = attributeCriteria.getValues();
values.clear();
values.add("1100254");
System.out.println(values.get(0));
While doing it this way prints the expected value "1100254":
List values = attributeCriteria.getValues();
values.clear();
values.set(0, "1100254");
System.out.println(values.get(0));
Thanks,
Bill

How to copy a value between items??

Hi friends,
[Apps R12]
I don't exactly know ho to do this:
Imagine you have a LOV.. and it retrieves a value in one of its attributes...
When selecting a value of that LOV.. I want one of those attribute values... be copied to other item in the same screen...
It would be te same as in Forms:
When-validate the lov ...
:block1.item2:=:block1.item1
where item1 is one of the columns retrieved by the LOV and item2 is another field on the screen....
Could any of you provide an example of how to do this?
Thanks!!!

if (pageContext.isLovEvent())
// Form was submitted because the user selected
// a value from the LOV modal window,
// or because the user tabbed out of the LOV input.
// Find out which LOV input triggered the event.
String lovInputSourceId = pageContext.getParameter(SOURCE_PARAM);
// Find out the result values of the LOV.
Hashtable lovResults =
pageContext.getLovResultsFromSession(lovInputSourceId);
if (lovResults != null)
// Update the page depending on the value chosen by the user.
see if this helps....
