Create Named Search with Java API

Hi,
is it possible to create or modify a named search with the Java API?
Best regards,
Roman

Hi Olof,
You can use the below code for searching a value in lookup table:
               ResultDefinition objResultDefinition = new ResultDefinition(Lookup Table Id);
               objResultDefinition.addSelectField(Lookup Field ID);
               StringValue [] objStringValue = new StringValue[1];
               objStringValue[0] = new StringValue("Value to search");
               RetrieveRecordsByValueCommand objRetrieveRecordsByValueCommand = new RetrieveRecordsByValueCommand(objConnectionAccessor);
               objRetrieveRecordsByValueCommand.setSession(strUserSessionID);
               objRetrieveRecordsByValueCommand.setResultDefinition(objResultDefinition);
               objRetrieveRecordsByValueCommand.setFieldId(lookup field id);
               objRetrieveRecordsByValueCommand.setFieldValues(objStringValue);
               objRetrieveRecordsByValueCommand.execute();
               RecordResultSet objRecordResultSet = objRetrieveRecordsByValueCommand.getRecords();
Now using the objRecordResultset in a loop you can get the record id by calling the getRecord(i).getId() method.
Hope this helps!!
Cheers,
Arafat

Named Searches and Java API

Hi All,
Does anyone know if its possible to execute Named Searches using the Java API? If so, how would you set up that call?
Best Regards,
Mark

Hello Mark,
SAP does provide with some methods related to Named Searches just have a look at these links
1. <a href="https://help.sap.com/javadocs/MDM/current/com/sap/mdm/search/SearchDimension.html#NAMED_SEARCH">Named search</a>
2. <a href="https://help.sap.com/javadocs/MDM/current/com/sap/mdm/security/AccessPermission.html#NAMED_SEARCH_OBJECT">Named Search Object</a>
3. <a href="https://help.sap.com/javadocs/MDM/current/com/sap/mdm/search/NamedSearchSearchDimension.html#NAMED_SEARCH_SEARCH_DIMENSION">Named Search Search Dimension</a>
I hope this solves ur problem.

Attaching/Detaching libraries with Java API

Hello,
In my forms (Forms10g), sometimes, libraries had been attached in lower case although files are in upper case. This causes compilation errors on UNIX systems.
I'm trying to detach these libraries with Java APIs and then reattach them in upper case.
But I get an error when I want to save the module.
Here is my code :
public class UpperPll {
 public UpperPll (String formName) {
 try
 FormModule form = FormModule.open("C:/AttachPll/" + formName);
 System.out.println("Form Name is " + form.getName());
 JdapiIterator AttachPll = form.getAttachedLibraries();
 while(AttachPll.hasNext())
 try
 JdapiObject jo = (JdapiObject)AttachPll.next();
 System.out.println(jo.getName());
 if (jo.getName().toLowerCase().equals(jo.getName()))
 AttachedLibrary.find(form,jo.getName().toUpperCase()).detach();
 System.out.println(jo.getName().toUpperCase());
 new AttachedLibrary(form,jo.getName().toUpperCase());
 catch (JdapiIllegalStateException jdise)
 jdise.printStackTrace();
 form.save("C:/AttachPll/New/" + form.getName() + ".fmb");
 Jdapi.shutdown();
 catch (JdapiException jde)
 jde.printStackTrace();
 public static void main (String[] args) {
 try {
 FileReader r = new FileReader( "C:/AttachPll/listemodule.txt" );
 BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader( r );
 try {
 String module;
 while ( ( module = br.readLine() ) != null ) {
 new UpperPll(module);
 } finally {
 r.close();
 } catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe) {
 fnfe.printStackTrace();
 } catch (IOException ioe) {
 ioe.printStackTrace();
And here are the errors I get :
An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.

We do something very simular. We rename everything to lowercase for the same reasons. I've pasted a snippet of the code we're using at the end of this post.
To get the full source code of our converter have a look at http://www.oratransplant.nl/2005/05/30/custom-built-forms-migration-assistant/#comment-642
Here is the code snippet:
while (attachedLibs.hasNext()) {
AttachedLibrary attachedLib = (AttachedLibrary)attachedLibs.next();
String attachedLibLocation = attachedLib.getLibraryLocation();
out("Found attached library " + attachedLibLocation, logLevel,
false);
if (attachedLib.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("obsolete_forms6")) {
obsoleteAttached = true;
if (attachedLib.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("webreports")) {
webReportsAttached = true;
// converted name of attached lib to lowercase
if ((!attachedLibLocation.equals(attachedLibLocation.toLowerCase())) &&
lowerLib) {
out(attachedLib,
"Converting filename to lowercase (" + attachedLibLocation.toLowerCase() +
")", logLevel + 1, true);
attachedLibLocation = attachedLibLocation.toLowerCase();
pllChanged = true;
// attachedLibLocation = attachedLibLocation.toUpperCase();
pldText.append(".attach LIBRARY " + attachedLibLocation +
" END NOCONFIRM\n");
out("Re-attaching library " + attachedLibLocation, logLevel + 1,
false);

How to do exact word search using Java API

Hi,
Can someone tell me how can I write a search query using Ultra Search Java API to return data containing a full word that is sent as a search
parameter. e.g. If I want to search for a word 'Dictionary' I need to get all the results conatining full word Dictionary for example if I
have following 4 records
1. Dictionary
2. English Dictionary
3. French Dictionary
4. AllDictionary
How can I write a query that returns me first 3 records only as they contain the word 'Dictionary' and not the fourth record as it's not a word.
Here is what I need to get back and ordered in that way as the 'Dictionary' needs to be first record because the search is on Dictionary.
1. Dictionary
2. English Dictionary
3. French Dictionary
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Looks like we can not do an exact word search using Java API.

Read "Qualified Range Key Generation" with Java API.

Hi guru,
I use MDM 5.5 SP6.
In MDM Console I read Qualified Range Key Generation it in "ADMIN -> Remote Systems -> Qualified Range".
I have to get "Qualified Range Key Generation" with Java API.
It's possible?

Hi Rocco,
I am also thinking of same scenario.I thought it is possible in Java Apis by calling the webservices for MDM.there is a service of "get key mapping" where we can pass this "Qualified key range" as parameter.In MDM we have to define a look up table for that key ranges .We will access that table through JAVA API and then link it with the key mapping service .
If u find any solution to apply this ,please share.
thanks and regards

index.addTaxonomy("countries/us", new ResourceContext(user)) ;
Any help would be very nice.

I'd also be interested to know how to do this.
I found this code section to sort by date, but couldn't change it to get it to work to sort alphabetically.

//order the resource list
resourceList.sort(rRPC);

MDM - Create a named-search with an active one

Hi MDM experts,
Is there any possibility to activate a Named-Search and save another with another active search criteria?
I mean:
I choose Named-Search A
I activate another field for filtering.
Then I need to save this result as Named-Search B.
I can't find this option available (only in display mode). Any experience how this can be done?
Thanks,
LM

Restoring NamedSearch with Java API

Hi,
I tried to restore a NamedSearch with the following code:
    RestoreNamedSearchCommand restoreNamedSearchCommand = new RestoreNamedSearchCommand(context);
    restoreNamedSearchCommand.setSession(session);
    restoreNamedSearchCommand.setTableId(namedSearchTableId);
    restoreNamedSearchCommand.setRecordId(searchRecord.getId());
    restoreNamedSearchCommand.execute();
    Search namedSearch = restoreNamedSearchCommand.getSearch();
But I always get the following error: Server error (0xffaa0310)
No matter which NamedSearch I try to read.
Has anybody encountered that error before and knows what it means?
Or has someone succesfully restored a NamedSearch via the Java API?
Many thanks,
Martin

Hi Martin,
Here is a quote from the MDM API JavaDoc:
A command to restore a named search. A named search is a search criteria that has been saved.
Note: Not all named search can be restored by the API.
It seems you may be in one of those occasions where the named search cannot be restored.
There is, fortunately a workaround. The following piece of code will add a named search to an MDM Search object, and will always work in returning the correct records when used in a RetrieveLimitedRecordsCommand (or any other command that takes a search object).
// Step 1: Create a SearchDimension
SearchDimension sd = new NamedSearchSearchDimension();\
// Step 2: Create an array of MdmValue and add the NamedSearch ID to the array
MdmValue [] mdmValues = new MdmValue[1];
mdmValues[0] = new LookupValue(new RecordId(namedSearchId));
// Step 3: Create a PicklistSearchConstraint and add the array of lookup values
PicklistSearchConstraint sc = new PicklistSearchConstraint(mdmValues);
// Step 4: (Optional, but advised) Create a SearchParameter
SearchParameter sp = new SearchParameter(sd, sc);
// Step 5: If you do not already have a search object, create a new one
Search search = new Search( mainTableId );
// Step 6: Add the search parameter to the search
search.add( sp );
// Now use the search in a retrieve command
Hoping this solves your problem,
Walter

How do I resolve connection error with Java API listener?

I have created a listener using the new Java API (see How do I implement a listener using new MDM Java API? for background). When I run it, I get this error message
Mar 19, 2008 3:57:58 PM com.sap.mdm.internal.net.ConnectionImpl finalize
INFO: Disconnect was not called. Cleaning up connection in finalize.
This message is triggered whenever I generate a data event that I would otherwise expect to be captured and handled by the listener. I have tried a number of things, including setting the connection to NO_TIMEOUT and trying SimpleConnection versus ConnectionPool, but always with the same result.
Here is some sample code for the listener:
public class DataListenerImpl implements DataListener {
     public void recordAdded(RecordEvent evt) {
          System.out.println("===> Record Added Event");
          System.out.println(evt.getServerName());
     public void recordCheckedIn(RecordEvent evt) {
          System.out.println("===> Record Checked In Event");
          System.out.println(evt.getServerName());
     public void recordCheckedOut(RecordEvent evt) {
          System.out.println("===> Record Checked Out Event");
          System.out.println(evt.getServerName());
     public void recordModified(RecordEvent evt) {
          System.out.println("===> Record Modified Event");
          System.out.println(evt.getServerName());
And here is the code for the Event Dispatcher:
public void execute(Repository repository) {
     DataListener listener = new DataListenerImpl();
     try {
          EventDispatcherManager edm = EventDispatcherManager.getInstance();
          EventDispatcher ed = edm.getEventDispatcher(repository.getServer().getName());
          ed.addListener(listener);
          ed.registerDataNotifications(SystemProperties.getUserName(), SystemProperties.getPassword(),
                    repository.getIdentifier(), repository.getLoginRegion());
          ed.registerRepositoryNotifications(SystemProperties.getUserName(), SystemProperties.getPassword(),
                    repository.getIdentifier());
          ed.registerGlobalNotifications();
          while (true) {
               Thread.yield();
               try {
                    Thread.sleep(1500);
               } catch (InterruptedException ex) {
                    System.out.println("Interrupted Exception: " + ex.getMessage());
     } catch (ConnectionException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
     } catch (CommandException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
Has anyone else encountered this message? Could it be related to a TCP configuration on the server? Or is this a bug in the Java API?
As I mentioned in the forum posting linked to above, I have not encountered this problem with the MDM4J API.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I resolved it. We are switching over to SP6, Patch 1 and the listener code works fine with this version of the Java API.
Just one thing to note, though: make sure that you register data notifications through MetadataManager in your initialization code:
metadataManager.registerDataNotifications(userSessionContext, repositoryPassword);
For information on the changes to the SP6 Java API, especially with regard to connecting to MDM with the UserSessionContext, please review Richard LeBlanc's [presentation|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/20073a91-3e8b-2a10-52ae-e1b4a10add1c].

Sort Hierarchy with Java API

Hi Mdm guru,
I have to sort the getHierarchy results.
In the MDM Data Manager is possible "Sort Entire Branch" (in the context menu).
My question: there is a method in the Java Api for this funtionality?
Best Regards

Hi Rocco,
It depends upon which API you are using. The API mdm4j has a function
CatalogData.GetChildren()
which has a parameter for defining the sort field. So you can create your own recursive function which drills down through a hierarchy, creating each level sorted.
The class SortDefinition belongs to the "new" API MDMJavaAPI, but at present I do not see a way of gettting a sorted hierarchy with this API.

Insert Value(s) in Lookup Flat Multi-valued Table with Java API

I've been looking in MDM Java API Library Reference Guide, MDM SP4 API JavaDoc, and SDN Forums for information on how to Insert/Update different values in a field in the Main Table of a given repository that belongs to a Lookup Flat Multi-valued Table using the Java API with no success.
I also haven't been successful in adding this values in the same way that I'll add a single value, using the MDM Java API, in a single-value Lookup Table (a2iFields.Add(new A2iField(FIELD_CODE,FIELD_VALUE)) for each value I want to add, like for example:
a2iFields.Add(new A2iField("Country","USA")
a2iFields.Add(new A2iField("Country","Mexico")
a2iFields.Add(new A2iField("Country","Germany")
Can anybody point me to the correct documentation that I need to read to fulfill this task? Or, even better, if someone can post a piece of code, I'll be more thankful.
Thanks for your help.

HI,
little code example, where you add existing lookup values based on there record id:
     int USA = 1;
                    int GERMANY = 2;
                    A2iValueArray countryArray = new A2iValueArray();
                    countryArray.Add(new Value(USA));
                    countryArray.Add(new Value(GERMANY));
                    A2iFields record = new A2iFields();
                    record.Add(new A2iField("Country", new Value(countryArray)));
Please reward points if helpful.
Regards,
Robert

Bursting with JAVA APIs / MultiThreading / Errors Handling

We are trying to use the bursting JAVA APIs 10.1.3.3.1 Standalone) to burst huge XML files and generate PDF Files from RTF templates. Here are a list of our issues with this feature:
1. We have some problems catching the errors when bursting. We have tried to use the "oracle.apps.xdo.common.log.Logger" class, but it is not always reacting like we think it should. Could you please give us an exemple of a clean bursting error catching or a brief description of how we could do it. We have a lot of difficulties to find information about using the JAVA APIs of BIP.
2. Is it a clean way of catching the bursting errors to use the "oracle.apps.xdo.common.log.Logger" class?
3. When using the 10.1.3.3.1 DocumentProcessor JAVA API, the process gets killed when the RTF template is not where the control file specified it. Even when using a finally clause containing the document processor, we can't fetch the error from the "oracle.apps.xdo.common.log.Logger" class. We did not find a way to catch this error which make our program crash.
4. How can we enable multi-threading that is included in the DocumentProcessor JAVA APIs so it can take advantage of the multi-processors environnements?

1. Check tim d. blog, you can use the bursting listners to get the errors. It's also in the documentation.
First, on every exception, the Bursting APIs are dumping the error in the Logger. So I can't see how we can use the listeners to catch these. We can check the hasExceptions on the Logger but still, we have some problems with this. When we deploy our application as a MDB (Message driven bean), it seems that once the hasException flag has been raised, if we call the MDB again, it is still up. Is there documentation about that Logger class? Also, I'm worried that we won't be able to call our MDB twice to run simultaneously 2 different bursting process since it seems the Logger is something static, keeping every exception in memory... That's bad.. And show me where you have found documentation about this. All I see in documentation is how to call the DocumentProcessor in a couple of lines. I don't see anything about a clean way to catch errors.
2. Yes/No/Depends. I think it's fine. If your changing the logger options in your program that could come back to haunt you.
I guess so, I'm not changing anything and its already haunting me...
3. When using the 10.1.3.3.1 DocumentProcessor JAVA API, the process gets killed when the RTF template is not where the control file specified it. Even when using a finally clause containing the document processor, we can't fetch the error from the "oracle.apps.xdo.common.log.Logger" class. We did not find a way to catch this error which make our program crash.
Even worst, when we deploy the component has an MDB, when the error happens, it kills the whole oc4j container... please correct this quick.
4. How can we enable multi-threading that is included in the DocumentProcessor JAVA APIs so it can take advantage of the multi-processors environnements?
We got an answer from the dev team which is to add two properties to the document processor, something like:
enable-multithreading: true
thread-count: >2
We did that and what we got is that the process started and it got stuck in a dead lock at the first document processing. How nice! :)
We got a milestone in March and I'm really worried about all those problems... Not enough documentation, a pretty bad error handling, errors making crash the whole oc4j container, Logger seems not to be handling simultaneous calls/ threads, not even handling two subsequent calls... etc.
If anyone has the magic answer, it would be pretty welcomed!
Thanks
