File attachments into sdn forums posts

Hey mates!
I wonder if it's possible (or if not, maybe someone thought about it earlier) to attach some files into a posting to the SDN Forums. It would be quite useful to add a screenshot, or an ABAP-listing.
Any suggestion?
BR,
Alvaro

Hi Alvaro,
We have it running in an internal forum, but it is slow as hell.
If it is really bugging you and you can sign up to become a Weblogger (Weblogs -> Become a Weblogger) there you can load screen shots and then refer to them in your forum posts. You don't need to write a Weblog for that.
Best, Mark.

Links in SDN forum posts

Hello!
This is probably trivial for most of you, but I just can't do it.
How do I create a link in a SDN forum post? The standard way doesn't work, and tips from the weblog "Weblog formatting tips&tricks" by Mark Finnern obviously don't apply here:
<a href="http://sap.com/community" target="_blank">SAP Community</a>
See?
So please enlighten me: how do I do this?
Thanks!
Igor

Hi,
If you don't want a description and just the plain URL shown, you only need the type the URL and all happens automagically. eg http://sdn.sap.com will be shown as link.

How to attach files to the thread we post in this forum?

How to attach files to the thread we post in this forum?
I’m wondering why there is no feature that allows attaching files from our hard drives! It is not practical to upload our file first in a certain web to provide it as a link in the post.
Is there a way to attach our files directly from our hard drive to the post?
Please, have a look on the screenshot below that shows a forum which includes all the very basic features!
Thank you for the help

Pierre,
Just a guess on my part, but I would suspect non-image files in this case.
As Ted points out, that WAS possible early on, and then the capbility to attach non-image files, was actually retained by a certain few forums, though not for long. This change was coincidental with a major spam attack, and at least one disgruntled user attempting to attach some rather nasty "stuff." I do ot know if those events prompted the change, as I was not part of the decision making group, that initiated the change.
Though 95% of the files that I wish to attach, ARE image files, there are times, where a TXT file would be ideal, say for a crash log, or similar. Now, I can convert that TXT to a PNG, but then one has to work with pixel x pixel dimensions, and some files, like those crash logs, can be rather long.
Personally, I find the loss of the Attach File (was via a button at the bottom-left of the editing screen) to be a sad comment on the actions of some, on these forums, but then that just reflects life outside of the forums.

PS - I am glad that you found that little article useful Especially in the PS, PrPro, PrE and Encore forums, screen-caps can tell so very much about what is going on with a person's program, system or their Projects/Images.

How to convert XML into idocs and post in ECC using PI

Hello All,
I want to configure the scenario like this MDM->PI->ECC. Using FTP I am getting able to fetch the xml file from MDM Server Ready folder. Now, I need to convert this XML file into Idocs and post it in ECC. Can anyone provide me step by step configuration in PI to achieve this. I have configured communication channel with adapter type Idoc in Itegration Builder. But, I am not sure where it will do the conversion of XML into Idoc and how do post it to ECC. I am working first time on PI 7.1. I have worked on XI 3.0 in 2006-2007. Any help to configure this step by step shall be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Hemal

In you have the XML from MDM you have to use the mapping provided by the funtionals in the Funtional specification documents. once you did it you must configure the Receiver IDoc Adapter. and later dont fonget to configure properly the ReceiverAgreement.
as you receive the docuement from MDM via FTP, thats not a SAP System that means that you have to define PI as the sender of the IDoc,otherwise you will have the Error "Unable to convert the sender service to an ALE logical system"
to do that in the receiver Agreement>Header Mapping>Sender System-->Select PI server.
Take in mind to send IDocs to any SAP System, the system that send it must be a SAP system too. thats why you configure it
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/5d/112d20f6ce6c46ba66afb98d278fbd/frameset.htm
Another thing is you have configure the ALE distribution Model.

File attachments in SIP application

I am developing a C# Lync Server SIP application. It is required to get the information on the server side about the file attachments added by Lync users during a group conversation. I have made a full dump of all messages received by server event handlers
OnRequest and OnResponse, and there is no information about file attachments. Is it possible to get the information about file attachents in SIP application?

You will have better luck asking your question on the

Loading wave file data into array

Greetings
For starters, I'm still learning java, so forgive me if this is a trivial question. I've been using the documentation on the java sound api as a guide. What I am trying to do is to load a wav file data into a byte array and eventually I will need it to have it in an int array so I can pass the data into a demodulation algorithm to display as an image. This wave file is a recorded signal from a NOAA satellite. Here is my code thus far:
public boolean loadFile(File soundFile) {
          int totalFramesRead = 0;
          boolean result=false;
          File fileIn = new File(soundFile.getPath());
          try {
               AudioInputStream ais = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(soundFile);
               int bytesPerFrame = ais.getFormat().getFrameSize();
               // Set an arbitrary buffer size of frames.
               int numBytes = 1024*bytesPerFrame;
               byte[] audioByte= new byte[numBytes];
               try {
                    int numBytesRead = 0;
                    int numFramesRead = 0;
                    // Try to read numBytes bytes from the file.
                    while ((numBytesRead = ais.read(audioByte)) != -1) {
                         // Calculate the number of frames actually read.
                         numFramesRead = numBytesRead / bytesPerFrame;
                         totalFramesRead += numFramesRead;
                         return(result= true);
               } catch (Exception ex) {
               JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(desk, " Error Loading File" ,"Error",
                         JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE);
               ais.close();
               throw ex;}
          } catch (Exception ex) {
               JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(desk, " Error Loading File" ,"Error",
                         JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE);
          return result;
     }

Which business objects do allow searching the associated file attachments?

Hello search experts,
SAP Note 1249465 - TREX 7.1: Installing TREX for Embedded Search states:
"Embedded search enables every SAP Business Suite application to search in a unified way inside its business objects (structured data) and associated file attachments (unstructured data)."
Is there a list of business objects where the search in the associated file attachments is supported? I'm specially interested in the SAP CRM business objects. But a list for SAP ERP and the other Business Suite components would be nice too.
Best regards
Gregor

Hi Ritwik,
for the Cycle 3 of Customer Connection for SAP CRM that was started last year this idea was submitted:
Integrate documents (attachments) into CRM embedded search
https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/ideas/10637
unfortunately this topic spans cross multiple software components. The development was started but got stuck. In the moment the status of this request is "Handed over - Already in development planning (Handed over to Product / CEI topic owner)". So let's hope we will see a standard solution sooner or later.
Best regards
Gregor

Storing file attachments

Hello,
We have built a custom solution (custom objects, transactions, number ranges, UIs, etc.) to handle certain kind of requests in our SAP system. Now we would like to add file attachment functionality to our transaction(s) - in other words we want that the users will have possibility to add files as attachments when creating new requests or changing the existing ones.
What is the best approach to handle this requirement? From user interface point of view this is not an issue. I am familiar with the different file uploading possibilities within classic dynpro and web dynpro. The question is that how to store the files and where.
I don't think that storing the files into the SAP DB is really an option due to the large amount of large files. (I think that this would be quite easy to implement.) We have content server(s), but they have been configured as DMS - they are storing some engineering documents etc. into these content repositories.
Would it be possible to store the documents into these DMS content repositories (if yes, how can we do it?) and make a link between the file and our documents into a custom table? As far as I understand we really cannot start using the document info record functionality for our custom objects (or perhaps we can, but it will require a quite massive work effort.)
Or is it just the best option to configure new content repositories as type ArchiveLink, and then store the documents into these new content repositories?
Any other options?
Any thoughts are welcome.
Regards,
Pa

Well, first I am instructed to ask this question in DMS forum. When I close this thread and open a similar one in DMS forum, I am being reported to abuse the system???

How to become a Moderator in SDN Forums

Hello All,
When does one qualify to become a moderator in SDN Forums?
Thanks,
Jignesh

This thread has so many topics, I'll need to try to be very specific about which of these threads inside of threads I'm addressing.
Let me start with the problem of "inactive" moderators which Ravi particularly highlights.
Gali (and in the past Craig) kept a list of over 650 moderators for the various topics. Moderators for the most part were SAP employees but about 50 of the 650 folks moderating were non-SAP folks who by merit of their active contributions or by nomination from an SAP employee or nomination by other members of the forum in a particular topic were asked to be a moderator. Moderators submitted a request form and were accredited by topic experts or other SAP contributors.
In the case of SD for example, 2 of the four names I see on the list are from SAP's support group and are employees. If they are "outdated" or inactive, Gali will need to ascertain that with her ERP resource and they should be removed or prodded into activity and/or replaced.
As you can well imagine, keeping track of 650 or more moderators to ensure their "activity" is a pretty daunting task and it is through your comments and suggestions about their levels of activity that we can quality check as we are not subject experts in your individual forum areas: you are.
One another theme here, I agree with those that posted (albeit with a bit of sarcastic humor) that the role of moderator is not so much an acknowledgement and recognition of talents but a challenging chore. And we certainly salute those who enter the coliseum (you know like the gladiators) to fight the good fight of keeping things useful and clean here.
Now if that chore negatively impacts good contribution abilities of the same gladiators, that really should be examined. But I also see a very positive outcome of stepping aside to moderate and contribute less directly and that is that a number of those moderators are actively helping to create new "stars" by encouraging and highlighting and promoting the good activity of others. In other words, they help create new "top topic contributors". And if they aren't doing that, they should be because moderation isn't just about policing; its also about encouraging others.

Method for quickly putting file names into IPTC core description?

I would like to put the file names into the IPTC core description. The files are all named differently .Is there a way to batch this or any other way of automatically including it so that I don't have to do each file separately? Or perhaps there is a plug in?
I am using PS5/ bridge on a mac.

You only need a script… not a plug-in to do this. Search the bridge scripting forum as Im sure Paul has posted several variations of scripts that do this…

How do I insert an image into a new post?
Thank you

If the image is on another server then we prefer to have a link instead of the real image in case it is a large image and we've already seen it or do not want to wait for it to load (server may be slow).
I do not know what any of this means.
I have a single laptop connected to the internet.
So far I have worked out how to upload an image to a thread-reply by copying the uploaded file "path" and pasting it onto the reply
and then after the reply is posted there are two incidence of each image
1. the URL
2. the image at the bottom of the reply
I am a newbie so would appreciate any feedback

General : new user ID not linked to my old user ID on SDN forum

I used to have a user ID on SDN forum & recently I recieved a request from SDN to collaborate my SDN account with SAP Service market place.
I accepted it & since then, all the questions that am posting into forums are being posted with new user ID & it's not the same as the one that i used earlier.
Basically, my old user ID got wiped off after this process.
How do I make sure that my new user ID posts tie with my old user ID.

Itunes delays ONLY when playing mp3's. Also it delays when I move any file type into a playlist. Help! I'm about to go back to Windows Media Player!

Hi friends! Like I said Itunes delays ONLY when playing mp3's. Also it delays when I move any file type into a playlist.
Here's what I've done so far;
I 've checked my external hardrive (by playing it off my internal instead), I've tried reinstalling (although it wasn't an uninstall), I've tried clicking on all the neccesary boxes (let itunes organize files, copy files, consolidate, and reorganize), I've tried different sound cards, I've tried moving files quickly (as some have said this works). I'm not sure what's wrong. I have 7000 songs.
Any help would be great!

Have you tried installing Media Manager on another computer and streaming the songs from there?
How about smaller playlists? See the same problem?
