Dynamic parallel processing of the same object using asynchronous method

Hi,
Please can anyone help me?
I have to send the same DMS document to several agents for parallel processing. The number of agents is not known until runtime. Each of them should process the document and at least change the status of it. In next step I check if he has changed it.
I use dynamic parallel processing of subworkflows. Key task of this subworkflow uses standard method of object DRAW - DOCUMENT.EDIT (standard transaction CV02N) which is asynchronous. The task is finished by event DOCUMENT.CHANGED.
During the parallel processing the appropriate number of workitems is generated. However, when the agent who processes the document as first completes his workitem the event DOCUMENT.CHANGED is generated and all parallel workitems are completed, even those of other agents that were not processed yet.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi all,
The process is used to approve incoming invoices. Each scanned invoice is attached to a DMS document and than sent to one or several agents in parallel. People from several departments can approve the same invoice for instance energy or mobile phone costs. We have no HR module fully implemented. Each agent may write some remarks and has to sets the document status to either approved or rejected. This status is temporary therefore the others see the original status for approving.
The process of incoming invoices was implemented by SAP consultants in 2003 on 4.6B and now runs on our 4.7 system. Now new company was established running on a new SAP system ECC 6.0 and our accountant department and some agents will deal with invoices in both systems. Therefore, the process should appear the same or at least very similar. The majority of the old process was realized by programming while I would like to use workflow features that are available now and reduce the programming part.
As I see, I will have to choose one of the solutions that Arghadip suggested.
I wonder if there is a possibility to use asynchronous method and control the end of each work item by means of u201CComplete Work Itemu201D or u201CComplete executionu201D Conditions. I have never used them and I do not know how they work and what condition to use. Maybe program exit might be used as well. While controlling the agents I think I will have to do some programming anyway because the work item can be finished by a substitute too.
Thanks for your help.

Parallel processing in the same work center

Dear Guys,
There is a routing sequence in which some 2-3 operations will occur parallely & those operations will belong to a same work center,How to map those operations in the routing,do i need to maintain parallel processing ,if so then how to go about

Parallel Sequence
Definition
A linear sequence of operations that is parallel to a sequence of operations in the standard sequence.
Use
A parallel sequence enables you to process several operations at the same time. A parallel sequence is carried out at the same time as the corresponding section in the standard sequence. It is a special form of overlapping operations.
Integration
You can create parallel sequences in routings and rate routings. You cannot create them in reference operation sets or reference rate routings.             Creating a Parallel Sequence
Call up the sequence overview.
Choose Edit ® New entries.
The Choose Sequence Category dialog box appears.
Select Parallel sequence and press Continue.
The Sequence Details screen is displayed.
Enter the necessary data.
Select Operation overview to create operations for the parallel sequence.

Problem in Dynamic Parallel processing using Blocks

Hi All,
My requirement is to have parallel approvals so I am trying to use the dynamic parallel processing through Blocks. I cant use Forks since the agents are being determined at runtime.
I am using the ParForEach block. I am sending the &agents& as a multiline container in 'Parallel Processing' tab. I have user decision in the block. Right now i am hardcoding 2 agents in the 'agents' multiline element. It is working fine..but i am getting 2 instances of the block.I understand that is because I am sending &AGENTS& in the parallel processing tab.. I just need one instance of the block going to all the users in the &AGENTS& multiline element.
Please let me know how to achieve the same. I have already searched the forum but i couldnt find anything that suits my req.
Pls help!
Regards,
Soumya

Yes that's true when ever you try to use ParForEach block then for each value entry in the table a separate workitem ID is created, i.e. a separate instance is created that paralle processing is not possible like that
Instead of that what you can do is create a fork with 3 branches and define a End Condition such that until all 3 branches are executed .
Before to the fork step determine all the agents and store them in a internal table , you can access the one internal table entry by using the index value check this [wiki|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/abap/accessingSingleEntryfromMulti-line+Element] to access single entry from a internal table.
For each task in the fork assgin a agent
So, as we have defined the condition that until all the three branches are executed you don't want to come out of the fork step so, it will wait until all the stpes are completed.

Using the same object in two actors at the same time

Hello,
I'm in doubt. In my application, for example i have three Hardware classes - Database, DAQ1, DAQ2.
Database class has one main method (except initialization methods) - Log Measure.
DAQ1 class also has one method - Get Voltage, and DAQ2 class has one method - Get Current.
Then i define two HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) classes - Measurement1 and Measurement2.
Each of those classes have two main methods, respectively - Measure Voltage and Measure Curent. They also have some initilziation methods.
In code, i create three objects of Hardware classes - Database, DAQ1 and DAQ2 and initiaze it. For example in Database private cluster i have DB RefNum, in DAQ1&2 i have device addresses etc.
Next I initialzie Measurement1 with two hardware objects - Database and DAQ1, and in the same way - Measurement2 with Database, and DAQ2 objects.
What Measure Voltage and Measure Curent (methods of Measurement1 and Measurement1 objects) do?
Measure Voltage method call DAQ1::Get Voltage method, then Database::Log Measure.
Similarly, Measure Current method call DAQ2::Get Voltage method, then Database::Log Measure.
Till now it's clear i think. It should work properly.
But now i incorporate Actor Framework, and define Measurement1 and Measurement2 as an actors.
Now i can run Measurement1 and Measurement2 at the same time, simultaneously, but this two actors share one object - Database. So my question - what is when actors want to use Database::Log measure method at the same time and this method is time cosuming (for example large pack of data).
Is one actor waits for second to stop executing this method of one shared object? I think yes because reentrancy setting (http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361J-01/lvconcepts/reentrancy/)
But what, for example if i share one Hardware object of device (ADC converter) beetwen two HAL classes (Measurement1 and Measurement2). This Hardware object has two methods, for ex. Get Voltage At channel 1, and Get Voltage At Channel 2. Both of this methods cannot by call at the same time, because in physical device i can measure only at one channel in the same time.
Let the Get Voltage At channel X meausere take 10 seconds. Now i have huge chance, that Measurement 1 actor call Get Voltage At channel 1 method, and Measurement 2 wants to call Get Voltage At channel 2, when Get Voltage At channel 1 is in process. How to inform actor to wait till second actor release device resources?
Regards,
Kacper

Dear Kacper,
the way I understood, there are two separate questions in this post, namely:
I'm using a shared resource in multiple actors, and the code accessing the resource can take quite some time to execute. How can can I ensure this does not mess up the timing of one or all accessors?
I'm using a shared resource in multiple actors, and the code accessing the resource can generate errors if I try to access it from multiple places. How can I ensure synchronization between all accessors?
As for the first question, the optimal solution to separate the resource prone to timing issues in a different thread/actor. Put anything that is not strictly timed (file access, network comunication) in a separate loop. For each actor, you will get queue references to communicate with, so instead of logging the measurements in the actors where they are made, just queue them up for a different loop to process.
For the second part, the same logic still applies. Ideally, every singular resource should be handled by its own thread and nowhere else, so if anything else needs data from/to said resource, it can send a request to the dedicated thread or actor.
If, for some reason, this is not sufficient, you have to handle synchronization in some other way. There are a lot of techniques here, for example:
Create a named semaphore or lock as a part of the class. Have class functions use the semaphore before accessing the resource.
Use actor messages. Have a "resource in use" or "resource released" messages sent to all users whenever obtaining or releasing said resource.
Have a separate actor handle all resources, awarding them to threads needing them. This method also allows setting priorities between requests.
These are just a few examples, there are many other options.
Please let me know if this was helpful.

Dynamic parallel processing using a multiline container element

Hi All ,
I just wanted to how things work when we use "Dynamic parallel processing" for a decision step . I came across a situation wherein a Rule gets the approving user(s) and the work item should be sent to all those users . After getting an approval from all the users , the workflow should proceed or else it should terminate .
I was just wondering whether "Dynamic parallel processing" will do this job or not . I had also thought of using forks but as the number of approvers are decided at runtime , i dont think it is possible .
Any inputs ?
Edit : We are working on CRM 5.0
Thanks ,
Shounak M.

Hi Shounak,
Just do as Mike says:
use the multiline element for a subflow.
The subflow consists of your user decision, if someone rejects it, remember it (could be done by updating a small table using a method, or use an event, or what mike suggested, updating appending a table )
In the top flow, after the multiline element step determine if someone rejected it (wait for event, or reading the table).
Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

How do I use multiple classes to access the same object?

This should be staightforward. I have and object and I have multiple GUIs which operate on the same object. Do all the classes creating the GUIs need to be inner classes of the data class? I hope this question makes sense.
Thanks,
Mike

public final class SingletonClass {
private static SingletonClass instance;
private int lastIndex = 10;
public final static SingletonClass getInstance()
if (instance == null) instance = new SingletoClass();
return instance;
public int getLastIndex() {
return lastIndex;
}1) This won't work since one could create a new SingletonClass. You need to add a private constructor. Also, because the constructor is private the class doesn't have to be final.
2) Your design isn't thread-safe. You need to synchronize the access to the shared variable instance.
public class SingletonClass {
    private static SingletonClass instance;
    private static Object mutex = new Object( );
    private int lastIndex = 10;
    private SingletonClass() { }
    public static SingletonClass getInstance() {
        synchronized (mutex) {
            if (instance == null) {
                instance = new SingletonClass();
        return instance;
    public int getLastIndex() {
        return lastIndex;
}if you are going to create an instance of SingletonClass anyway then I suggest you do it when the class is loaded. This way you don't need synchronization.
public class SingletonClass {
    private static SingletonClass instance=new SingletonClass();
    private int lastIndex = 10;
    private SingletonClass() { }
    public static SingletonClass getInstance() {
        return instance;
    public int getLastIndex() {
        return lastIndex;
}If you don't really need an object, then you could just make getLastIndex() and lastIndex static and not use the singleton pattern at all.
public class SingletonClass {
    private static int lastIndex = 10;
    private SingletonClass() { }
    public static int getLastIndex() {
        return lastIndex;

How can I use the same object in the different jsp files?

I am doing a project. I have finished my jave source files and compiled them successfully. And I also wrote a main method to test my classes, they also worked well. Now I am trying to use my jave code in the jsp files. But I meet a problem, in my method of java source file, I can generate a object of a class, and use it in the whole main method. But in the different jsp files, how can I do same thing?
For example, in the .java file,
Vector vl = new Vector();
While ...{
vl.add(...)
In each of my .jsp file I want to do one loop of the above, meanwhile I want to do that in the same object.
I hope you can understand what I mean. Really need your help!

put your object into a session and you can the use it in all the jsps as long as the session is valid. Or you could create a static variable in the class that only creates one instance off an object and then create a static method to return this object.

Can TCP/IP communication be used for 2 Labview processes on the same target?

I am a newbie to all this LV stuff so bear with me. We are trying to create a simulation tool that will run on the same machine as the client GUI [also LV]. Can we use TCP/IP to communicate between these 2 LV processes on the same machine? If so, how? Thanks for the help.

Hi nathand,
I have another issue while communicating with TCP/IP protocol.
I am sending data from RT target to Host computer(Main UI ) using TCP . Also I have created EXE file of main main UI which one is running on Host computer. and ussing this exe file in three different PC and want to send the control signal from all four PC (three exe installed and one host PC). I created four communication loop in RT with four different port for communication with four PC.
When I am running the all VIs ,Its try to connect to the port of the listener and and showing keep waiting for a connection. Another problem is whatever value we sending from four PC , Target vi receiving random value with actual value. Also every time its getting reset.
So please help me here.
Thanks!

How to process two files at the same time using BPM

Hi experts,
I have a Integration Process it takes two files one Header xml and one Lines xml. These files shoudl be processed at the same time because them will be mappend in a Idoc.
The realy trouble is that these inbound xmls never are executed at the same time. Then a IP is executed for each inbound xml.
This is the IP:

I try to do all what I know, but It don't work fine :S
Thanks in advance and Regards,
Jose Antonio.

Hi Jose,
Don't specify any end condition for fork step and check the start process check box in both the receive step.
Also put all steps inside the block.. so that the control step in deadline branch can throw exception and after that the BPM ends. As per the design now, if a deadline exception is raised (it will b handled) but after that the transformation step and send step is executed. There the BPM fails.

Two Threads Sharing the Same Object

I am learning Java multithreading recently and I really hit the wall when I came to synchronizing data using the synchronized keyword. According to the explanation, synchronized will only work when 2 or more threads are accessing the same object. If there are accessing 2 different objects, they can run the synchronized method in parallel.
My question now is how to make sure for synchronized method to work, I am actually working with the same and only one object??
Imagine this:
Two person with the same account number are trying to access the very ONE account at the same time.
I suppose the logic will be:
Two different socket objects will be created. When it comes to the login or authentication class or method, how can I make sure in term of object that the login/authentication class or method will return them only ONE object (because they share the same account), so that they will be qualified for using the synchronized method further down the road?
Thanks in advance!

Actually your understanding is wrong. Consider:
public class MyClass {
private int someInt;
private float someFloat;
private synchronized void someMethod(final int value) {
    if (value > 2000) someInt = 2000;
private synchronized void someOtherMethod(final float value) {
    if (value > 2.0) someFloat = 1.999f;
}YOu might think that two different threads can enter this code, one can enter in someOtherMethod() while one is in someMethod(). That is wrong. The fact is that synchronization works by obtaining synchronization locks on a target object. In this case by putting it on the method declaration you are asking for the lock on the 'this' object. This means that only one of these methods may enter at a time. This code would be better written like so ...
public class MyClass {
private int someInt;
private float someFloat;
private void someMethod(final int value) {�
    synchronized(someInt) {
      if (value > 2000) someInt = 2000;
private void someOtherMethod(final float value) {
    synchronized(someFloat) {
      if (value > 2.0) someFloat = 1.999f;
}In this manner you are only locking on the pertinent objects to the method and not on 'this'. This means that both methods can be entered simultaneously by two different threads. However watch out for one little problem.
public class MyClass {
private int someInt;
private float someFloat;
private void someMethod(final int value) {�
    synchronized(someInt) {
      if (value > 2000) {
        someInt = 2000;
        synchronized (someFloat) {
          someFloat = 0.0f;
private void someOtherMethod(final float value) {
    synchronized(someFloat) {
      if (value > 2.0) {
        someFloat = 1.99999f;
        synchronized (someInt) {
          someInt = 0;
}In this case you can have a deadlock. If two threads enter one of these methods at the same time one would be waiting on the lock for someInt and the other on the lock for someFloat. Neither would proceed. The solution to the problem is simple. Acquire all locks in alphabetical order before you use the first.
public class MyClass {
private int someInt;
private float someFloat;
private void someMethod(final int value) {�
    synchronized (someFloat) {
      synchronized(someInt) {
        if (value > 2000) {
          someInt = 2000;
          someFloat = 0.0f;
private void someOtherMethod(final float value) {
    synchronized(someFloat) {
      if (value > 2.0) {
        someFloat = 1.99999f;
        synchronized (someInt) {
          someInt = 0;
}In this manner one thread will block waiting on someFloat and there can be no deadlock.

Defining index in Dynamic parallel processing of workflow

Hi all,
I am using dynamic parallel processing feature in workflow for a particular multi-line element. But I am not able to define the index in that particular task.
Consider that i have a multi-line element "Material". For this element, I need to loop that task for that n number of records. so i am using dynamic parallel processing. Now for each workitem generated, i need to show that particular material in the workitem. I remember that we need to use index, but i couldn't recollect how it is defined.
Could anyone help me in this regard?
Thanks in advance

Nikhil,
When you use dynamic parallel processing the index is available in <b>_Wf_ParForEach_Index</b>. A reference for the line of the multi line element is automatically generated for each work item created. You can see this in the Binding Editor for the step. In your case this will be "Material()". When you drag this element to the WF to Step binding window, it will be resolved as "&Material[&_Wf_ParForEach_Index&]&. Therefore you can get the material for each WI by defining "Material" in your task container (not as multiline) and doing the appropriate binding. If you in fact need the Index in your method, you can define a container element your task with reference to Type SWC_INDEX and bind to ]_Wf_ParForEach_Index.

Ramki Maley.

Make sure 2 threads share the same object

I have been thinking about this for quite some time. However, I really couldn't figure it out due lack of experience and knowledge.
I just needed to know how can I make sure that 2 or more threads (after certain checkings that they should share a same common object) will really share the same object.
For example (to UlrikaJ if you are reading this):
How can I achieve the following?? Thanks!
"When James and Ada separately want to access their shared account,two transactions are started that accesses the object associated with that account number."

Thanks for the answer. You are welcome :-)
public class Account
   public Account getAccount(String userInput)
     // Some processes to verify the userInput go here.
     return account;
}//End of Account class
public UserThread implements Runnable
   private String name;
   private Semaphore s;
   private Account userAccount; //Reference for the Account class
   public UserThread(String name, Semaphore s)
      this.name = name;
      this.s = s;
   }//End of constructor
   public void run()
      for(;;)
          getUserInput(); //Ofcourse the implementation will depend on what you are doing
          s.lock(); //obtain a lock on Semaphore object
          //Entering critical section of the code
          this.userAccount = accountObject.getAccount(userInput);
          //End of critical section of the code.
          s.signal(); //Release the lock so that other thread
          //can access the getAccount() method...irrespective of the
          //variable or the object being used or referred to.
      }//End of for() loop
   }//End of run() method
} //End of UserThread class
public class AccountApplication
   public static void main(String args[])
      Semaphore sem = new Semaphore(0);
      //Always initialize the Semaphore with 0 when you create it.
      UserThread user1 = new UserThread("User Number 1",sem);
      UserThread user2 = new UserThread("User Number 2",sem);
      //All threads share the same Semaphore object
      Thread userThread1 = new Thread(user1);
      Thread userThread2 = new Thread(user2);
      userThread1.start();
      userThread2.start();
   }//End of main() method
}//End of classWell, I have given the outline of the code. I have not compiled or run the program so it might have errors in its syntax.
Obviously, you will definitely have to change it to suit your requirements. I have just shown you how to protect yur codes' critical section.
Hope this clears your doubts.

Hi Eduardo
This may not help but I am getting a similar problem and I have a possible workaround.
I'm not a BPM expert though so...
I have got a Null Pointer Exception, three times successively attempting to redeploy a BPMN Process SAR to WLS via JDeveloper only after I've added a new process to the project and attempted to redeploy.
[05:45:17 PM] HTTP error code returned [500]

[05:45:17 PM] Check server log for more details.
The only way I can stop this Exception is to Undeploy the existing Process via Enterprise Manager, Stop and Restart WLS. (Which is very tedious...).
To explain, I'm working though the various uses of Send/Receive tasks as described in Modeling and Implementation Guide for Oracle Business Process Management 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.4.0) - 6.4 Communicating With Other Processes and Services.
So I have about five scenarios, each with a simple Caller/Responding process and each with some very simple combination of Send/Receive tasks. When the deployment works, the process communications test fine via EM.
Personally, this looks like a bug. I'm using version below on Win XP SP3.

SSDT Schema Compare keeps showing the same objects as different..

Hi,
When comparing a database to my project using Visual Studio 2012 SSDT I get several stored procedures marked as changed. The body of the procedures is identical, but two properties are highlighted as different when expanding the object:
IsSelf (false on the DB vs true on the project) and User (dbo on the DB, needs to be added to the project).
The procedures have the option "with execute as self" both in the database and in the project as part of the body.
I have not found what needs to be done so these differences are applied to the project and never appear again. Tried changing some options on the schema compare but didn't found one that help.
Some forum suggested dropping the objects and re-creating them but I don't want to loose the history of changes on TFS.
Any suggestions?

Two string references pointing to the same object

Look at the following code snippet         String   s1 = "hello";
        String   s2 = "world";
        String   s3 = "welcome";
        String   s4 = "here";
        String   s5 = "hello";
They say that references s1 and s5 point to the same object "hello".
At run time after creating objects from s1 to s4 how the Java run time knows that there is already an object "hello" and assigns a differernt reference.

When the jvm load the class file, all suchconstants
found in the class are loaded in a global constant
pool. when you assign the constant to a variable,it
uses the same one from the constant pool.Suppose I intialize a string by getiing input
nput from the console which already exists, in that
case a new object will be created or the existing one
be used.A new object will always be created in that case, but you can get a reference to the string in the pool by calling intern. See the javadoc for intern in the String class.
