Defaulting vo attribute with system date

hie
looking for defaulting every new row in my vo with current date-time.
I guess there would be some groovy to insert in default value.
any idea what is that?
Vik

you can use Groovy expresions
adf.currentDate
adf.currentDateTime
To get the system date from the database, you can use the following Groovy expression at the entity level:
DBTransaction.currentDbTime
In entity you can also set attribute as history column Created On if attribute is not to be changed by the user.

Scheduling a report with System Date as prompt

Hi Experts,
We have came across a requirement where users want to have a date prompt.
While scheduling the report, by default prompt is to be populated with system date and it (prompt) should also allow us to select a different date.
This report is used for regular run and also for scheduling.
We need a single report with single prompt which allows us to run for any random date when prompted and also to be scheduled for the latest date.
Please give us advice/ suggestion.
Thanks
Uttam

Hi Neil,
We have tried both the approaches given by you, but it is not working for my requirement.
Let me explain it with the below scenario.
scenario:
we have developed the report by using 2 data providers,
Dp1: It is a custom Query with date as follows ( it is a Transaction data) which brings the data from 1st day of month(user prompt) to user's prompt date.
TRANSACTION_DATE BETWEEN last_day(ADD_MoNTHS(@Prompt('As Of Date :','DT','ABC\plant\Transaction Date',Mono,Free,Persistent,,User:0)
Dp2: It is also Custom Query, but it has only data on month ends.
DIMV_plant_EOP.TRANS_END_OF_MONTH_DATE = last_day(ADD_MoNTHS(@Prompt('As Of Date :','DT','ABC\plant\EOP plant Attributes\EOP Date',Mono,Free,Persistent,,User:0),-1))
Report is having 3 prompts, namely
1) As of date (prompt)
2) Plant (prompt)
3) Country (Prompt)
For example: if my report is ran on 06-june-2014,
DP1: Brings the data from 1st of June to 6th of june.
DP2: Brings the Data from Inception to last month(say 30-may-2014) because it has only month end data.
Upto this it is fine.... but
My requirement is to schedule the report daily......
Example: User want to schedule a report today(10-July-2014), tomorrow(11-July-2014) and so on...
Scheduling should be done daily i.e, it has to fetch the data 10-Jul-2014, 11-july-2014,12-july-2014.... so on.
Automatically scheduling has to take the current date.
Thanks,..

Unable to use transactions with System.Data.OracleClient data provider

I am using VS2008, System.Data.OracleClient, Oracle 10g, and ODAC 10.2.0.20. I haven't been able to get transactions to work. When I use 'connection.BeginTransaction()', the rollback doesn't work. When I use TransactionScope, the output parameter is always DBNull. Any ideas/comments?
Here's the sample code:

Hi,
First, this is not the place for questions with System.Data.OracleClient, this is the Oracle Data Provider for .NET forum. Having said that I went ahead and tested your code with some slight modifications because you did not provide the stored procedure information. I am assuming your stored procedure is doing some sort of DML since you are using transactions and attempting to commit and rollback.
I tested the following with both Transaction scope and a local transaction object and it worked fine with System.Data.OracleClient. I provided the create table and stored procedure I used.
Observations
========
When using transaction scope, a distributed transactions was executed and the data was inserted and returned in the output variable.
From console
p1 value is Hello World
From SQL Plus
SQL> select * from foo;
C1
Hello World
When using a local transaction, the DML was not inserted when calling rollback and when I changed it to commit, the row was inserted successfully.
Maybe you can test the simple foo example below to see if it works for you. Maybe there is something going on in your SP that is causing your specific observations.
The code I posted at this point is using local transaction and calling transaction.commit(), rollback is commented out. But I tested all scenarios and they worked as expected.

Date compare with system date

Given date time is in yyyyMMddHHmmss format, want to compare with system date time.
ie given date time is greater than zero then go inside if block otherwise else block.

I am using below code which always greater than zero. But I want to use compare to method to compare given date with system date and goto if or else condition:
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMddHHmmss");

How to use Db Provider Factories with System.Data.SqlServerCe

I'm using SQL Server Compact Edition, but in the future I would like to be able to switch to another SQL Server Edition or even a different database. To achieve this, Microsoft recommends using DB Provider Factories (see: Writing Provider Independent Code in ADO.NET, http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=674426&SiteID=1).
I enumerated the available data providers on my PC with:
Code Snippet
System.Reflection.Assembly[] myAssemblies = System.Threading.Thread.GetDomain().GetAssemblies();
The important entry is:
"SQL Server CE Data Provider"
".NET Framework Data Provider for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition"
"Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client"
"Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client.SqlCeClientFactory, Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client, Version=9.0.242.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91"
When executing:
Code SnippetdataFactory = DbProviderFactories.GetFactory("System.Data.SqlServerCe");
I got at first this error run time message:
Failed to find or load the registered .Net Framework Data Provider.
I added a reference to "Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client" at C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client.dll and the program runs.
Of course, it uses "Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client" instead of "System.Data.SqlServerCe". Laxmi Narsimha Rao ORUGANTI from Microsoft writes in the post "SSev and Enterprise Library" that "Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client" is not meant to be used and that we should add the following entry to the machine.config file:
Code Snippet<add name="SQL Server Everywhere Edition Data Provider" invariant="System.Data.SqlServerCe" description=".NET Framework Data Provider for Microsoft SQL Server Everywhere Edition" type="System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeProviderFactory, System.Data.SqlServerCe, Version=9.0.242.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91" />
After changing the code to:
Code Snippet
dataFactory = DbProviderFactories.GetFactory("Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client");
I get the same error message as before, even after adding a reference to "System.Data.SqlServerCe" at C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll.
Any suggestion what I should do ? Just use "Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client" ? Anyway, I don’t like the idea that I have to change the machine.config file, since I want to use click once deployment.

It seems there is no DbProviderFactory for System.Data.SqlServerCe. At least I couldn’t find one, no matter how hard I searched on the Internet. I only found Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client.SqlCeClientFactory. But we are not supposed to use Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client and the 2 classes do have quiet some differences among their members. So I decided to write my own factory:
Code Snippet
public class SqlCeClientFactory: DbProviderFactory {
public static readonly SqlCeClientFactory Instance = new SqlCeClientFactory();
public override DbCommand CreateCommand() {
return new SqlCeCommand();
public override DbCommandBuilder CreateCommandBuilder() {
return new SqlCeCommandBuilder();
public override DbConnection CreateConnection() {
return new SqlCeConnection();
public override DbDataAdapter CreateDataAdapter() {
return new SqlCeDataAdapter();
public override DbParameter CreateParameter() {
return new SqlCeParameter();
That was easy enough, right ? I spent 1 week investigating the problem, 10 minutes solving it. I wonder why Microsoft didn’t include this class, because they have already the code in Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client. I guess they have their reasons, but of course, they don’t tell us. After wasting one more month, I probably can tell. Oh, how I hate this.
Or has anyone an idea what might be the problem ?

then run your script - I don't see what the problem is?
You could* do something like -
at 00:01 run a cron job that simply does something like this
(I'm just giving outline - not a particular implementation)
runs date
gets the day, month and year from that -
export MyDay=day
export MyMonth=month
export MyYear=year
mkdir /path/to/dir/oracle/exp/$MyDay$MyMonth$MyYear
At the beginning of your script, before going into SQLPlus
----Your usual stuff------------
set ORACLE_SID=%1
set PATH=D:\ORACLE\ora102\bin;C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT
set LOCAL=2:%1
net use h: /delete
net use login
++++plus
cd /path/to/dir/oracle/exp/$MyDay$MyMonth$MyYear
Maybe this will be a help to get you started - it could probably be much more elegant in
Python or whatever, but if shell-scripting is the way you want to go...
I'd be interested to see if this can provide the basis for a solution.

How to compare a given date with System date?

The date input for me is of type String and it is in the format
String s = "1900-00-00 00:00:00.000";
I need a helper method that will take the above string as input and it should return Boolean value depending on the following condition.
Date should be less than or equal to current date and greater than the date prior to the date 50 years of current date.
Thanks in advance...

I got it.
String date = "3000-03-19 12:34:56.000";
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
Calendar c1 = Calendar.getInstance();
Calendar c2 = Calendar.getInstance();
Date d = new Date();
Date d1 = new Date();
Date d2 = new Date();
c1.set(Integer.parseInt(date.substring(0,4)),Integer.parseInt(date.substring(5,7)),Integer.parseInt(date.substring(8,10)),Integer.parseInt(date.substring(11,13)),Integer.parseInt(date.substring(14,16)),Integer.parseInt(date.substring(17,19)));

Attributes with junk data using ldapsearch utility

Hi,
We have Enterprise Directory 5.1 V2 installed on HP-UX.
We have a issue when viewing data through ldapsearch utility.
1. some attributes for employees have blank values(one space),this we can see from the console. This was added manually through a perl script as a part of a fix.
But when it is viewed through a ldapsearch utility it shows as some junk characters for this blank valued attrributes.
eg: email address ::==RHWA
I have few questions
1. Can we add a blank space value for the attributes
2. how can i retrieve a meaningful data( even a blank data) from a ldapsearch utility without any junk characters.Since most users use this utility.
This is a production issue. I would greatly appreciate for a good solution.
Thanks a lot.

Identify which attributes? Binary encoded attributes? You could do a regular ldapsearch, specifying a list of the attributes which might have space or binary values. These attributes will be in the form
^name::
You could use a perl script to look for these, then use ldapmodify to delete those values or replace them.

Load Master data attribute with Text Data (Urgent Please)

Hello Experts,
I created a new navigational attribute to one of the master data object and now I want to load that particular new navigational Attribute from the Master data Text (Medium description).
In brief, I need first 4 letter of master data text (medium description) to load in to the navigational attribute. How
How is this possible? Can you please help me to get it solved.
Thanks and Regards,
Harish Mulaka

Hi Apparrao,
Add this attribute to your infoobject's attributes list.
Make sure it comes in the communication structure for the infoobject.
Then in the transfer rules write a routine. You will have to read the text table to get the medium text(field TXTMD) and pull the 4 characters from the beginning and populate your new attribute.
Do a full load and run the attrbute change run.
Hope that helps.
Regards.

Current time: System.currentTimeMillis. Date instances are not supposed to be updated.

How to take System Date format

Hai,
DateFormat class has various date format like DEFAULT, SHORT, MEDIUM, LONG. These format will display the date in a particular format. As well as Using SimpleDateFormat class we can give our own format.
I want to display the date with system date format. In our system we can set any date format using control panel. But how can we take that format from our program.
If any one know give me idea..
Thanks.

The default locale should be enough to set the correct date format for you. You can check the currently set locale with java.util.Locale.getDefault(). java.text.DateFormat.getDateInstance() generates the proper date format for that locale.
The other poster is right, though. You're asking for an OS dependant function which Java, rightly, does not do.
