User defined function in java for message mapping

I wrote the following user defined function in java for message mapping and mapped vendor with this. The aim of this function is to write a error file at defined path when i send empty Vendor value from File to RFC-Function module BAPI_PO_CREATE. The "err.txt" error file is not written when i execute in TEST but the value "ERROR" is returned to destination Vendor Field.
public String validation(String a, Container container) {
//write your code here
if (a.equals("")) {
try {
String source = "Vendor cannot be empty";
char buffer[] = new char[source.length()];
source.getChars(0, source.length(), buffer, 0);
for (int i = 0; i < buffer.length; i +=2)
f0.write(buffer);
f0.close();
FileWriter f1 = new FileWriter("/10.10.0.55/sapmnt/trans/edixiin/err.txt");
f1.write(buffer);
f1.close();
catch (IOException e) {}
return "ERROR";

Hi Senthil,
Check these things :
1) Whether you have permission to create a file in that directory.
2) try giving this
10.10.0.55
sapmnt
trans
edixiin
err.txt
3) Also check for permissions.
Hope this will help you.

How to use Variable in message mapping

Hi Experts,
I have some problem using variable in message mapping.
In one message mapping, since a block of logic is repeated for several fields, then i tried to use a variable instead.
the repeated logic is: first if condition, then use a udf to form a queue which will be suppressed by its father node.
i tried to assign the result queue to a variable after the UDF execution. (this variable is created after the father node)
I am wondering is there any restriction of using variable?
Can we assign the whole queue to a variable?
Can we use UDF during the process of assigning value to variable?
thanks in advance.

I dont think you can assign a queue to a variable,I am not 100% sure, . and there is no restriction to useing a Zvariable, only u can use it after you declare at some parent level.
Yes you can use a UDF in the process of assigning to a Zvariable.
Check out this link and read the comments of the blog.

How to use the variables used in the message mapping

Hi ,
In the message mapping we can declare variables in the JAVA section , these variables could be used across the mapping .
I have tried using it but I am unable to retrieve the values assigned to the variables in one UDF into the another UDF .
Please guide me how to use the variables declared in the JAVA section in the message mapping .
Thanks
Anita Yadav

Anita,
I have worked on the Global variables and i found no issues. Make sure that the variable is declared in the Declaration Section and then initlaized in the Initialization section.
If you declare a variable in the Declaration Section ,
int i;
then in any udf you can use if directly. No need to re declare the variable in the UDF. If you do this, then it becomes a local variable.

Bhavesh

Problem while using Parameters in Message Mapping in Multi Mapping Scenario

Hi,
I am working on a scenario in PI 7.1, in which I need to pass output of Message Mapping as an input to ABAP Mapping.
In Message Mapping, I have used standard RFC Lookup function to call a Function Module from ERP system. For using RFC Lookup function, I have created a Import Parameter of Category "Adapter", and Type "RFC" in the Signature Tab of Message Mapping.
In Operation Mapping, I have specified both the mappings (that is., Message Mapping and ABAP Mapping).
In Interface Determination, I have also assigned a value to the Importing Parameter.
But whenever I trigger a message, it fails and gives message "The input-parameter Rec_RFC_ERP does not exist." (Rec_RFC_ERP is my Input Parameter name).
When I am using only Message Mapping in Operation Mapping; it's working absolutely fine that means something needs to be done with ABAP Mapping.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Varun

Rec_RFC_ERP is this the name of your RFC lookup adapter?? Did you test your mapping in Design time using the RFCAdapter dropdown???

Can I do this all at once in my scenario or what is the best way to do this?

Hi,

Ur flow will be something like this under operation mapping :

Anybody know how to use jave work with mapping file? help!

mapping file are somehow those...
<db-insert root-element>

Thank you very much

urm...thanks..
my job is about to write a transformation tool to transform XML documents into a database. The tools is written for users to extract data in XML format and store it into a database. But i would choose MYSQL. Mapping files are used to store information correctly into database to avoid the need to write new code for each type of XML files. And can choose any programing langugage for implementation such as Java and C#.........and currently still looking on Java or VB

Message Mapping ... ABAP ,XSLT and JAVA

HI Friends
I have a general question ... but it will confuse me a lot ....
my question is we have four types of message mappings
1) GUI ( and UDFs)
2) ABAP
3)XSLT
4) JAVA
when we have plenty of options in GUI (and User defined functions also) to define sender 2 receiver message mapping
then what is need of JAVA,ABAP and XSLT Message Mapping and when we use these message mappings( exactly in which situation) and difference b/w them
Thanks in Advance
Mahesh

Green = recommended
Yellow = Acceptable
Red = not recommended
In my experience.
XSLT mapping: is confotable to convert to another format different to xml(when we do not have a complex logic)
Java Mapping: is to implement complex logics(but the maintainbilityis not good...you need a external tool)
ABAP mapping: I think is the best option when the you have the skills on that technology but take account that is not portable neither good for usability.

Ivan
