Extendscript - Book component type - ES bug or doc error?

Hi,
(FM 11, Win XP)
When you query ComponentType for an FM document book component, you get hexadecimal 0x200 which happens to equal Constants.FV_BK_FILE. However, the documentation says that this property should return one of:
• Constants.FV_BK_FOLDER (0x02) - Folder
• Constants.FV_BK_GROUP (0x40) - Group
• Constants.FV_BK_FM (0x8) - FrameMaker document
• Constants.FV_BK_MIF (0x10) - MIF document
• Constants.FV_BK_XML (0x20) - XML document
Given the supposed MIF and XML options, I'm not sure if there is a bug in ES or if the documentation is just wrong. An XML component also returns 0x200. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Russ

Hi Russ,
same issue here (FM 11, Win7). I'm not sure, but in my opinion it's an error in the documentation. The values for ComponentType should be:
Constants.FV_BK_FOLDER (0x2): Folder
Constants.FV_BK_GROUP (0x40): Group
Constants.FV_BK_FILE (0x200): File
Additionally you could check the sort of file type via BookComponentFileType (FM, MIF, XML, Ditamap).
In a short test script for traversing a hierarchical book the BookComponentFileType has some more values:
Constants.FV_BK_FOLDER (0x2): Folder
Constants.FV_BK_BOOK (0x4): Book (inside another book)
Constants.FV_BK_FM (0x8): FrameMaker document
Constants.FV_BK_MIF (0x10): MIF document
Constants.FV_BK_XML (0x20): XML document (also Ditamap and Bookmap)
Constants.FV_BK_GROUP (0x40): Group
The main difference between ComponentType and BookComponentFileType seems to be the more detailed information about the file type.
Best Regards, Andreas

Book data type in printing

hi all,
when i add more than 20 pages in book data type am getting OutOfMemory error.. how to rectify this error..
regards
suresh

There might be some issue with your code like creating large arrays for some reason which don't get garbage collected or some of the other memory leak type things which can be disgnosed in Java 6 using various tools:
http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/J2SE/monitoring/index.html (or just by code inspection)
But if you've checked for that, you can always encourage Java to use more memory by adding a command-line flag like -mx512m (assuming you have that much available)
That setting might just delay an underlying memory issue, but it sounds like you just need that much memory.
Here are the options:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/tooldocs/windows/java.html
Some additional "non-standard" command-line options can also help diagnose or get around memory issues:

Reading Component Type in ABAP

hi
Given a table name, is it possible to identify its 'Component type' <b>programmatically</b>
for example VBAK has the following Application/Component hierarchy:
SD - Sales and Distribution
       SD-SLS - Sales
             VA - Application development R/3 Sales
                    <b>VBAK</b> - Sales Document: Header Data
So, is it possible to read this hierarchy in an ABAP program?

Hi
From the table description and the Dev class attached to it, and from the fields description we will come to know the component types of that table
all these are stored in different tables with respect to that table
check the tables
TADIR,DD03L, TDEVC etc to get all the above linked things of a table

Software Component does not support selected Development Component Type...

Hi,
I have a problem, i want create a new project of Mobile Service Component, but, when i want select MyComponents [demo.sap.com], in the top appear:
"Software Component does not support selected Development Component Type. Required DCs are located in an SC that is not visible from the selected SC "
Why?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,

Hi Victor,
the issue is that the archive pool in your NWDS is not set up properly. Could you check the configuration of the development configuration? I guess you are developing in Local Development, right? Please check in the "Component Browser" that the two Software Components "NWMCLIENT" and "XOCA" are present and contain some DCs inside them. If this is not true, than something went wrong with your setup of the IDE. The modifications of the default.confdef are most likely not right.
Please come back to me if you don´t know how to proceed.

How to find what are the support-teams map with particular componant type

hi experts,
i am new in solution manager..

Please give solutions ..
Regards,
Kumar..

Hi Kumaresan-
I'm not sure I fully understand your requirement but I will try to help out. If you are trying to determine / associate the relevant support team according to which component they are responsible for, this might help.
The determination of the support team is maintained by configuring rule 13200137 in transaction PFAC_RESPO.
Click on the Responsibilities Tab
Create your responsibility based on your support team requirements
Assign the appropriate Support Team, this data will be taken from the settings you have maintained when creating your org chart in ppoma_crm
Highlight a responsibility and click Change
In this table you will see an entry for SAP Component, this is where you identify which support team will be determined based on component

ME59N - 1 PR doc type to 2 PO doc type

Hi,
I trying to use ME59N to covert PR doc type NB (with item category = blank) to PO doc type NB.
And convert PR doc type NB (with item category = K) to PO doc type CB.
How can I do it?
Thanks,
Anson

Hi Andy,
Thanks for the reply.
Documet Type Linkage
PR doc type NB (item cat. = Blank) link to PO doc type NB.
PR doc type NB (item cat. = Blank) link to PO doc type SB.
PR doc type NB (item cat. = K) link to PO doc type CB.
If my linkage relationship between PR & PO document type set as above, when I run ME59N and tick the option of "Per Item Categary". The PR with item category = Blank will convert to which PO document type?
Please advise.
Thanks,
Anson

What is the different between component and component type in extract struc

Hi All,
What is the different between component and component type in the Extract Structure?
I used them, but I never really know the different between them yet.
Thanks,
Grace

The difference between Component and Component Type are:
Component This is essentially the field name in the extraction structure. These can either be SAP delivered field names or custom field names (e.g. Y* or Z*).
Component Type This defines the data definition for the field, along with associated attrributes and descriptions for anything using that Component Type, to define the corresponding Component. If you double-click on any Component Type in an extraction structure, it will show you the definitions that have been setup for that Component Type (will display as Data Element but it's essentially synonymous - Component Type refers to structures and Data Elements refer to tables).

Find underlying component type

Hi, I have a structure which has few components. Is it possible to find the component type of the components?
Also is it possible to determine whether the component type is a table-type or a structure?

Hi Arun,
You can try out with the help of a join on the tables DD02L and DD03L. In the DD02L, you would be having the tables and it table category (i.e., the type of the component you require INTTAB represents it as a structure and TRANSP represents transparent table.)
For example, if u have an include structure in a table, first hit the DD02L table and know whether it is a table or structure and then hit the table DD03L to know what are the include structures it is having. In this way, you can play around with it.

Getting error : Expected a child component type of UISelectItem/UISelectIte

Hi,
I am using facelet and third party tool for displaying Grid.
When I am using following code then getting the error :
"Expected a child component type of UISelectItem/UISelectItems for component type javax.faces.SelectOne"
Code:
<ig:column sortBy="phoneNumber">
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="Phone Number" />
</f:facet>
<h:selectOneMenu value="#{DATA_ROW.phoneNumber}" >
<f:selectItems value="#{mylist.list1}"/>
</h:selectOneMenu>
</ig:column>
Please suggest to resolve the issue.

following is the component tree at which this error is occured:
<HtmlSelectOneMenu disabled="false" id="_ig26" immediate="false" localValueSet="false" readonly="false" rendered="true" required="false" transient="false" valid="true">

Component type table

dear sir,
in solution manager the component type is stored in dswp_csncomp table while creating the support desk message.. but in R/3 system component type stored it where (which table ) .. please reply..
Regards,
kumar

Hi Kumar,
I hope, that I understand your question correctly.
When creating a support desk message in satellite systems, the proposed component is derived from technical information of the transaction.
The application component is assigned to the package, which is visible on tab "Properties". You can the display the assignment of a transaction as follows:
- execute transaction
- choose System -> Status
- double click on field "Transaction"
- double click on field "Package"
- tab "Properties" shows the assigned Application Component
I don't know the table.

Ruediger

Component type in property tree

Hi Experts,
Can you please provide me the details about what is the component type in a property tree of a specification and how can we find which component type is assigned to a specification property tree.
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Kapil

Dear Kapil
you misinterpret the data model of EHS. The "Component type" is just "customizing". This customizing is used in any !! value assignmen type C (composition); We have may be 50 (or more; I do not have counted them) value assignment type of type C in STANDARD tree; so there is no answer to your question possible as component type can be used very often in different contexts
