Domain type for binary data

Hello,
I want to create domain and data element to save binary data like pictures.
Do you use RAW or RAWSTRING for this?
thx

Ideal column type for Binary Data ??

Hi there,
I must store binary data of fixed length (e.g. IP address of 4/16 bytes) into a table and manipulate that table over C++ / OCI.
The database server is running on either SUN/SPARC or LINUX/i86. The clients are running on a broad range of systems (NT/i86, LINUX/x86, SUN/SPARC, ..).
I am worried about the OCI layer modifying char/varchar values while transmission ...
Whats the best approach ??
Use CHAR/VARCHAR or use the variable length RAW even for fixed length binary data ??
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Tobias

I guess RAW is the best approach

Incorrect MIME type for XML Data Connection POST requests

It appears that Xcelsius 2008u2019s XML Data Connection logic does not specify the correct MIME type for the data it sends to the server in its POST request. Using an HTTP debug proxy, I was able to see that Xcelsius sends XML data in the POST, but is setting a content-type of u201Cx-www-form-urlencodedu201D. According to the W3C spec:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4.1
Data sent with a MIME type of u201Cxxu201D should be encoded as key?value pairs, like this:
key1=val1&key2=val2&Submit=Submit
So, what Xcelsius is doing is clearly incorrect. Worse, if your server process is a Java servlet, you may find that the POSTed data will be gobbled up by the servlet container and you wonu2019t be able to read it using a getInputStream(), or getReader() call because itu2019s already been processed by a call to the getParameter() method.
The correct mime type for POSTing an XML formatted request from Xcelsius should be "text/xml".

Hi,
The Error #2032 your getting is due to the Flash player security.
To remove this this error you need one crossdomain Xml file in the root directory which actually provides a lot more control over who has access to your data from a SWF. The cross domain policy is attached as crossdomain.xml.
In the XML file, it is used a wildcard (*). This allows a SWF located on any machine to access your data source. You can certainly use an IP address or domain name to restrict access rather to opening it up completely. I always start with the wildcard to make sure my dashboard works, then start restricting access as necessary.
Here is a whitepaper with everything you need to know about Flash player security:

Please let me know if you need any more clarification.

Power View in SharePoint Server - The data extension type for a data source is not valid

Hi All,
All of a sudden I am getting following error when trying to create Power View report using shared report data source (no error testing the connection):
"The current action cannot be completed. The data extension type for a data source
'http://dev/Shared Ducuments/Sales.rsds' is not valid for this operation"
I already have a data source (I had created it after creating my site collection a week ago) and when I use this source to create Power View report then there is no error but I am getting above error when I create another similar data source and use it to create
a Power View report.
Please help me to resolve the error.
Thanks

I am going nuts! I had selected 'Analysis Services' instead of 'Microsoft BI Semantic Model for Power View'

Is there an object like StringBuffer, but for binary data?

I like the performance of StringBuffer, it's very fast when I use the indexOf() and lastIndexOf() methods.
Is there an equivalent buffer object for binary data so that I can quickly search for byte sequences fast instead of looping through it?
Thanks.

I like the performance of StringBuffer, it's very fast when I use the indexOf() and lastIndexOf() methods.You mean fast as in O(n)?
Is there an equivalent buffer object for binary data so that I can quickly search for byte sequences fast instead of looping through it?A ByteBuffer might be useful, though you will have to loop - (thats what StringBuffer does)

Download file problem for binary data?

Dear All,
I have wrote a jsp file to do download page. I have used a piece of code from the JDC to this. This code will prompt the download dialog box each time user clicks the download button. The code itself will set the content type for different application. The code is like below:
try
java.io.File fileobj = new java.io.File(strFolder + strFile);
response.setContentType(application.getMimeType(fileobj.getName()));
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=\""
+ strFile + "\"");
java.io.FileInputStream in = new java.io.FileInputStream(fileobj);
int ch;
while ((ch = in.read()) != -1) {
out.write(ch);
out.flush();
in.close();
} catch(Exception e)
The code can download and handle text file correctly when it is openned in the text editor or inside the IE. But when a PDF file or Image is downloaded and openned in the PDF viewer or image viewer, it is corrupted and cannot be viewed. What is the problem? Any ideas?
So, I wonder this code can handle binary data or not. It is seen like there is no different code to handle text and binary data in Java/Jsp.
Thank you very much!
Best Regards,
Rockyu Lee

Best Datatype for Binary Data

Hi,
We storing a Binary Data say "ù?" in oracle as String Datatype.
I have formed the query in my application to insert a record which has above string as one of the String field value.
The insertion was success but when the above string is not stored as it is but it is stored as "¿ù?" which is not a correct data.
Is this problem is because I'm using string for storing binary data?
Also please let me know what could be the best data type to store the binary data (like above data) in oracle.

Justin,
With the help of your query I identified how the bytes are stored in the memory.
I'm having VARCHAR2 datatype of size 14 in oracle when ever i store my binary data it is storing as
127,0,0,0,0,0,0,0....for 14 bytes -> So the binary equivalent is 011111111,00000000,00000000,...... And i'm ok with it.
But the problem is whenever a byte is holding the binary equivalent of 128 it is storing in the oracle as 191
eq:
Bits: 10000000 => equivalent to 128 in decimal and it is what i want to get when i query it using select, but what i'm getting in sql query is "191".
Really I'm not able to understand the relationship beween 128 and 191 binary values.
I got the above detail using the DUMP sql function.

Plugin for binary data: channels with coefficient : y = a3*x^3 + a2*x^2 + a1*x +a0

Hello,
I am bulding a plugin for extracting data from a binary file.
My problem is that the scaling of the values is not defiened by a linear equation (y = a1*x + a0 where conversion is easy with Factor and Offset properties of Channel), but by a cubic equation (y = a3*x^3 + a2*x^2 + a1*x +a0) with 4 coefficients. For the moment, I performed the operation in a loop over all the values of the channel... this takes a lot of time to convert all the values!!! Is there a more efficient way for multiplying array in VBA or channels in DIADem (for Plugins!!!)...?

Hi Ollac,
There is no way to efficiently apply polynomial scaling in a DataPlugin. You could create each of the polynomial component terms with an eMultiplyProcessor type ProcessedChannel in the DataPlugin, but we can't add them together with another ProcessedChannel because you can't add a ProcessedChannel to another ProcessedChannel. If the manual cell-by-cell scaling that you've already tried is too woefully slow, then I'd suggest exposing the raw data values to channels in the Data Portal and adding the "a0", "a1", "a2", "a3" polynomial coefficients as channel properties. Once the raw data is in DIAdem, you can use the ChnCalculate() or the older and faster FormulaCalc() command to apply the polynomial scaling in-place based on the coefficients in the channel properties. You might want the Data Plugin to add the "_Raw" suffix to the channel names and have the scaling VBScript remove the "_Raw" suffix or replace it with a "_Scaled" suffix so you don't accidentally apply the polynomial scaling twice.
Ask if you have questions about this,

Use httpchannel/httpservice combination for binary data

I have a blazeds proxy configuration set up with my flex application to communicate with a RESTful webservice.
This webservice is practically an interface to a content management system which has all types of content text and binary(audio,video,images etc) protected by HTTP basic authentication. I had no reason to use Blazeds except for its proxy capabilities to enable HTTP Authentication headers to be sent from the application to the webserver which dont work when sent directly to the server as mentioned.See related post below -
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/136576
I send the requests through HTTPService from flex through a configured destination and it works well for all data formats supported by HTTPservice. Unfortunately HTTPService does not support binary resultformat for images,audio and video. I am aware that i should use a streaming server for audio and video data but for images I would like to go through the blazeds proxy to the webserver. Loader is the only class which is recommended to be used with images but i am not sure of how to use it with blazeds.
Is it possible in anyway to achieve what I am trying to?
Thanks,
Peeyush

Try this...
var b:ByteArray = _dataLoaderHTTPService.lastResult as
ByteArray;
b.position = 0;
trace(b.readObject());

Data plug-in for binary data with byte streams of variable length

Hi there,
I would like to write a data plug-in to read binary data from file and I'm using DIAdem 10.1.
Each data set in my file consists of binary data with a fixed structure (readable by using direct access channels) and of a byte stream of variable length. The variable length of each byte stream is coded in the fixed data part.
Can anyone tell me how my data plug-in must look like to read such kind of data files?
Many thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Stefan

Hi Brad,
thank you for the very quick response!
I forgot to mention, that the data in the byte stream can actually be ignored, it is no data to be evaluated in DIAdem (it is picture data and the picture size varies from data set to data set).
So basically, of each data set I would like to read the fixed-structure data (which is the first part of the data set) and discard the variable byte stream (last part of the data set).
Here is a logical (example) layout of my binary data file:
| fixedSize-Value1 | fixedSize-Value2 | fixedSize-Value3 (=length of byte stream) | XXXXXXXXXXXXX (byte stream)
| fixedSize-Value1 | fixedSize-Value2 | fixedSize-Value3 (=length of byte stream) | XXXXXX (byte stream)
| fixedSize-Value1 | fixedSize-Value2 | fixedSize-Value3 (=length of byte stream) | XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (byte stream)
What I would like to show in DIAdem is only fixedSize-Value1 and fixedSize-Value2.
´
If I understood right, would it be possible to set the BlockLength of each data set by assigning Block.BlockLength = fixedSize-Value3 and to use Direct Access Channels for reading fixedSize-Value1 and fixedSize-Value2 ?
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Stefan

Generic Table to a formal type - for master data user exit class

Hello,
     I am attempting to setup an ABAP OO framework for extending master data with the CMOD exit, EXIT_SAPLRSAP_002. My goal is to create generic base class, upcast to the actual extraction structure, apply the customizing data fields, and then return the full table to the exit.    The problem is that I_T_DATA, the internal table for return values is untyped and therefore generic.   I tried using a class parameter as type ref to DATA, but the upcast if failing is failing. Can any one suggest:
What parameter type should I use for the class method parameter?
How do you upcast to the formal extract structure type?
How do you assign the result back to the generic type?
Thanks very much for the help!

I ended up figuring out the answer after a bit more work. In case it helps others, the keys points are:
I_T_DATA exposed in EXIT_SAPLRSAP_00x is a dynamic internal table
The reference to the table can be passed to a method parameter as a generic type, TABLE
Though, to store the value in the class as a formally typed value, such as required by an attribute, the type must be cast to the type, DATA.
For example:
Public section
Method CONSTRUCTUR
     IMPORTS
      PT_DATA TYPE TABLE.
Assign data pointer to attribute
     GET REFERENCE OF PT_DATA INTO A_T_DATA.
Endmethod.
protected section.
data A_T_DATA type ref to DATA .
Hope that helps.

Return billing type for POS data upload

Hi,
From the configuration, it only available for one billing type for POS upload. If i want to separate another billing type for return, how can i configure it. Thanks

Hi ,
You can create your custom billing type by navigating below menu
Goto SPRO->Sales and Distribution -> Billing -> Billing documents -> Define billing types. Here select any one of the standard SAP billing type (which ever is relevant to your business like FP for Interface
Billing - POS system), then click on copy as button to create a new one enter then give name for your new billing type for example ZFP, ZRE and then save it.

Details on data types for posting data to DB2 on AS400 from XI

Hi
We have a scenario in which we post data from XI (3.0, SP23 ) to DB2 on AS400 and we are using jdbc adapters ( jdbc drivers from IBM deployed on XI J2EE server as per SAP's instructions )
On AS400-DB2, there are two files F1 and F2 that we have to update in a particular library L1 - on a server S1. Each of the two files has a single field with the same name as that of the file.
I have the following questions :
1. How do we construct/specify the data type in order to convert XML from XI to the sql that DB2 needs - I do understand there is a standard data type structure used to convert XML to sql calls when we use JDBC receiver adapter type communication channel. Do we use the same for posting XML data from XI to DB2 too ?
2. What is the url for the jdbc driver - to connect to DB2 on AS400 ?
Please share experiences of XI -- > posting to DB2 using JDBC.
