File name in the target file field

Hi,
In this below particular blog we are creating the UDF and assigning the output of UDF to a filed in the target file structure.
/people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2006/12/20/accessing-system-parameters-in-mapping-runtime
And even we are entering the target file name manually in the UDF. Whatever the filename that we enter in the UDF that will also be displayed as the target file name. To do this even we are selecting the adapter specific attributes.
Please correct if my understanding is wrong.
thanks
kumar

Hi Kumar,
Whatever the filename that we enter in the UDF that will also be displayed as the target file name
Yes
To do this even we are selecting the adapter specific attributes.
"We could be" instead of "we are". If u want to access sender metadata, u should use ASMA.

Different log file name in the Control file of SQL Loader

Dear all,
I get every day 3 log files with ftp from a Solaris Server to a Windows 2000 Server machine. In this Windows machine, we have an Oracle Database 9.2. These log files are in the following format: in<date>.log i.e. in20070429.log.
I would like to load this log file's data to an Oracle table every day and I would like to use SQL Loader for this job.
The problem is that the log file name is different every day.
How can I give this variable log file name in the Control file, which is used for the SQL Loader?
file.ctl
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'D:\gbal\in<date>.log'
APPEND INTO TABLE CHAT_SL
FIELDS TERMINATED BY WHITESPACE
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(SL1 DATE "Mon DD, YYYY HH:MI:SS FF3AM",
SL2 char,
SL3 DATE "Mon DD, YYYY HH:MI:SS FF3AM",
SL4 char,
SL5 char,
SL6 char,
SL7 char,
SL8 char,
SL9 char,
SL10 char,
SL11 char,
SL12 char,
SL13 char,
SL14 char,
SL15 char)
Do you have any better idea about this issue?
I thought of renaming the log file to an instant name, such as in.log, but how can I distinguish the desired log file, from the other two?
Thank you very much in advance.

I don't have a direct solution for your problem.
However if you invoke the SQL loader from an Oracle stored procedure, it is possible to dynamically set control\log file.

Get File name of the inbound file during mapping

Scenario: to read the file name of the inbound file (which has date required for the mapping) during runtime.
The requirement is to read the date of the inbound file (passed to the XI pipline by the file adapter) and populate the same in the outbound mapping structure.
Any idea about how to do this?
(I went through few options of using java.util.map. not successful yet)

Hi Anand,
I posted the same question a time ago, without any help....
Can I find out the full filename of input file in message mapping?
Posted: Nov 23, 2004 1:00 PM
I have in XI 2.0 the following scenario :
In the inbound fileadapter I read my input file. The filename of the input file is part fixed, part variable (Like INDATA01.txt, INDATA03.txt, etc).
So in my Adapterconfiguration, I specify the filename with a wildcard (INDATA*.txt).
What I now want to do, is in my Message Mapping use the full filename , so I can do something different for every filenumber. Is there a way where I can get the full filename available in my message mapping (I did not find the filename in the XML in the message trace).

Assign Logical file name for the physical file path through Program

Hi all,
I am having a physical file which is getting generated dynamically. It is having the date and time stamp in its name which is added at runtime.
Now I need to assign a logical file name for the physical file path through the program.
Is there any FM or any other method to assign the same.
Gaurav

I think it is not possible. becuase the date & time added at runtime. so if you check the table PATH you can find filename and their definitions

With your presentation open, click on each movie element and read the name in the Metrics Inspector > File Info.

When someone other than myself downloads an image from my web album, a dynamically generated file name replaces the original file name. How I can prevent the original file name being replaced during the downloading process?

When someone other than myself downloads an image from my web album, a dynamically generated file name replaces the original file name. How I can prevent the file name being changed during this downloading process?

Hi Glenyse,
Here are my steps.
1. I upload multiple image (jpg) files onto my photo album.
2. I select the "sharing" by email option for this album.
3. I enter the recipient's email address.
4. The recipient receives my message and clicks on the link.
5. The recipient accesses my photo album and clicks on one of the images.
6. The image opens up to its own screen.
7. The recipient selects the "download" and then save file option.
Here is the part I do not understand. For some reason, during this "download" process, the original name which I have given to the file is replaced by different name. So I was hoping that someone knows how to prevent the file name from being changed during the "download and save" process.
Much appreciated if you can help me find a solution to this problem.

How write the Outbound file name in the Inbound file

Friends,
I have a scenario like this.
Outbout filename - sample.txt
In sample.txt, i have having data like 20
Inbound filename - vivek.txt
i need data the like sample, 20
(NOTE: sample is the outbound file)
How to get this scenario.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Vivek.

Hi Vivek,
If your PI is of SP14 and more you have an option called Adapter Specific Message Attributes.(ASMA) in communicatoin channel configurtaion, Which will help you in capturing the Sender file name during runtime.
So you will have to enable that option (ASMA) in Commchannel and capture file name in UDF using Java Code with the help of sap related API and map it to the target field which u would like to get populated.
follow the thread it has the discussion about acessing the Source file name.

Locating source file NAME from the executable file?

Hi all,
I wrote a vi a couple of year ago (call it file.vi), and created an executable out of it using the Application Builder (call it newfile.exe). I know I renamed the file
when I created the executable and now I cannot remember what I called the source file (I have hundreds in my PC, and cannot go through them one by one).
Is there anyway I can get the name of the original file from the executable? Notice that I am not asking to recreate the source file from the executable, which I understand is not possible.

Dennis,
I must come clean and admit that I don't really know what source control is. Is it a back up of source codes in one place like a server? I am not a programmer but use some LabVIEW to
automate a few simple tasks (mostly related to test data). I work solo in this area and there's not a group of people working on different pieces of the same project.
I can Google and learn what source control is. I am assuming that the concept itself is not specific to LabVIEW, unless LabVIEW has build-in funtionality for source control
It is more like a database of files. It keeps versions on each file so that you can revert back to a previous version if needed. If working in a team environment, it helps to merge code and keep everybody up to date with everybody else. But the versioning is the most important part. I then recommend keeping the repository on a server that is regularly backed up.
For a simple SCC software, take a look at Tortoise SVN.

How to obtain the file name of the cached file

Hi All,
I am using JMF to play a MP3 file from an HTTP link and I need to know the file name of the locally cached file. I found that I can obtain the cache directory using Manager.getCacheDirectory() and I can see the cached file there but its file name is changed.

I once had a similar task for creating a webpage that I only use on my computer--a webpage that accesses PDF's and SWF's font previews from a list of fonts as "a href's". What you must do is utilize the power of the command line, whether on a Mac on a PC or on Linux, Linux being the most powerful (although Mac IS Unix). You must utilize variables, variable replacement, and then a command to print out the results of a "for" or "while" loop to a text file which will be your HTML file with each individual link automatically built into the HTML code. You will have a list of 50 links. If you are simply looking for a GOOGLE type functionality where you click on "Next" and "Previous" you will have to dig deeper into variable replacement--this I don't know how to do yet but there are books for command-line shell interpreters. One shell interpreter is called "bash" (born-again shell) and there is a book on the market which gives a detailed example of how to replace variables in a shell script. Again, I don't know how it works. I will try to learn this at a later time when I am more seasoned with the basics of shell scripting.

Regarding file name in the target system

Hi..
I have got a file name releated problem in XI.
I have configured a flow in XI system using proxy and after mapping process creates a output file in target machine as a "Test<Date-Time Satmp>.dat".
Test is the file name and adding date-time stamp to that.
I am using file adapter.
Now my requiremnt is that instead of "Test<Date-Time Satmp>.dat", I need to create a file as
"<Date-Time Satmp>Test.dat" .
Please let me know if anyone has come across similar situation.It is urgent.
I know there is an option to create dynamic file names in file adapter but i think it isn't enought to solve my problem.

Hi jahangir laskar,
For the Receiver communication channel, (file adapter)
Enter in the fields
1. Under File Access Parameters section,
File Name Scheme : test.dat
2. Under Processing Parameters
File Construction Mode : Add Time Stamp
This should work, i just tested it out.

File Name into the Target

Hi All,
I have created a mapping which loads flat file into the target.
As there are multiple flat files as a source we need to capturing those in the target table.
For instance, MAPPING_FLATFILE does have 5 flat files (1.CSV,2.CSV,3.CSV,4.CSV and 5.CSV) as source
In the target table I need the result as follows
column1 column2 status
xxxxx 1.csv 1
xxxxx 1.csv 1
xxxxx 2.csv 1
xxxxx 3.csv 1
xxxxx 4.csv 1
How do I capture the filename and load into the mapping as a constant.
Can somebody please help me?
Thanks
Harry
FYI: I am using 11gR2 and the flatfiles are in UNIX server. I am loading thru SQL Loader Date file option.

Hi All,
Iam able to do this by checking the Option ASMA in only sender adapter itself

Hi,
I am working with flat file upload. Now my problem is in the selection screen field when i press space bar or backspace i want to see the previous file path which i have taken before. How to do this functionality.
Thanks in advance,
Vijay.

Hi,
Hope the following code will help u.
PARAMETER: in_file type ibipparms-path MEMORY ID FID.
at selection-screen on value-request for in_file.
call function 'KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4'
    exporting
      mask      = ',CSV,*.csv,'
    changing
      file_name = in_file.
But here when u give a path and execute and come back or executing it again the previous path will automatically come to the in_file field.
Just check this code.
