File to File with Validation For Empty Line

Hi Experts,
My Scenario:
FIle -> PI -> ABAP Proxy
For the File sender i am using File Content Conversion for .TXT. It is working fine but sometimes the user create the .TXT fiile with empty space/tab after the last record. The users wrongly press enter at the last record at the .TXT. Please look below:
1 test1 kl
2 test2 sg
3 test3 mk
|
Please look above the user wrongly press ENTER '|' and it created empty tab below the last record.
How can i validate the sender data if there is empty space and i should not transfer to receiver.
I am trying to use UDF but could anyone guide me?
Thank you
saravannan

Hello,
In receiver determination you can write that if your all fields(mandetory) are not empty then to for your perticular receiver and for If no receiver found option select end message without Error so if you some fields are coming blank or last line coming blank then it will not send message to your receiver and and without any error.

Dynamic file name in receiver - empty line problem with content conversion

Hi,
I do a variable substitution from a filename node in my xml structure. Because I don't want to have the the filename in my flatfile i supress the output with the conversion parameters:
filename.fixedLengthTooShortHandling = Cut
filename.fieldFixedLengths = 0
It's working but: the adapter is puting an empty line at the end of the file. If I even put the filename node at the top of the xml struture it generates the empty line at the top of the flatfile.
Anyone has an idea? is there an other way to set the filename or how can I supress this empty line( I have to) ?

Jorg,
Actually speaking we cannot get rid of this with XI. You have to write a OS script to remove this.
Else
you add one more parameter as .endSeparator as backspace ie., 0x08. It will definitely remove the line but I think it is putting a square box at the end of previous line. Please check by giving this and let us know the updates.

How can we load a flat file with very, very long lines into a table?

Hello:
We have to load a flat file with OWB. The problem is that each of the lines in the file might be up to 30.000 characters long (up to 1.000 units of information in each line, 30 characters long each)
Of course, our mapping should insert these units of information as independent rows in a table (1.000 rows, in our example).
We do not know how to go about it. We usually load flat files using table functions, but we am not sure that they will be able to cope with these huge lines. And how should we pivot those lines? Will the Pivot operator do the trick? Or maybe we should pivot those lines outside the database before loading them?
We are a bit lost. Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Regards

Yes, well, we could define a 1.000 column external table, and then map those 1.000 columns to the Pivot operator… perhaps it would work. But we have been investigating a little bit, and we think that we have found a better solution: there is a unix utility called “fold”. This utility can split our 30.000 character lines in 1.000 lines, 30 characters long each: just what we needed. Then we can load the resulting file using an external table.
We think this is a much better solution that handling 1.000 columns in the external table and in the Pivot operator.
Thanks for your help.

SQL Loader - CSV Data file with carraige returns and line fields

Hi,
I have a CSV data file with occasional carraige returns and line feeds in between, which throws my SQL loader script off. Sql loader, takes the characters following the carraige return as a new record and gives me error. Is there a way I could handle carraige returns and linefeeds in SQL Loader.
Please help. Thank you for your time.
This is my Sql Loader script.
load data
infile 'D:\Documents and Settings\user1\My Documents\infile.csv' "str '\r\n'"
append
into table MYSCHEMA.TABLE1
fields terminated by ','
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
trailing nullcols
( NAME CHAR(4000),
field2 FILLER,
field3 FILLER,
TEST DEPT CHAR(4000)
)

You can "regexp_replace" the columns for special characters

Checking .txt file with valid XML tags

hey guys,
I've a .txt file which conatins info with XML tags. I've to check whether the file contains valid tags or not!
a tag should start with "<" and end with ">", there shouldn't be space between characters after "<" e.g.
a tag should be like "<name>" or "</name>" not "< name>" or "< /name>" nor "<name" or "</name"nor "name>" or "/name>"Here is an example of a well formed XML document:
<root>
Some text <nextTag> more text <secondTag> stuff </secondTag> </nextTag> more text again
</root>Here is an example of XML .txt file:
<students >
     <student>
          <name> John </name>
          <name> Doe </name>
          <address> 98 Pine St.</address>
     </stdnt>
</students>I also have to make sure that no text appears before and after the root tag! Please help me, i'm trying to figure out but my alogrithm just doesn't work! Thanks in advance!!!

What's the purpose of those requirements? If you
wanted to check whether the file was well-formed XML
then you would just need to run it through an XML
parser. But some of the things you plan to reject are
actually well-formed XML. I don't see the point of
that.basically, it's my assignment. In the assignment our task is to check the .txt files to make sure that all XML tags are valid. The problems i mentioned in my first post, i've figured those out, eventually. There're few other things which i've to also make sure for example no text appearing before and after the root tag
Can someone please tell me how i can check following cases:
text<root> or </root> text (both are invalid XML files)

Render control file not valid for" project.aep -- Please Help!

I'm using AE CC
I've read all the discussions I could find on this topic to fix this problem.
All my computers are mapped correctly. The file that I'm sending at this point is very basic. Once jpg sequence (as a test) name shadowMatte - no spaces, underscores, very basic.
-The file is set for multimachine rendering in render queue
-I collected files with 'Collect Source Files: None' , Enable 'Watch Folder' render' checked
I'm not new to using multi machine rendering, this time around I just can't seem to get it to work...
all render slaves at least 8 gigs of ram.
Any help on this matter would be GREATly appreciated.

Need Sample JPG Files with Valid XMP data

Greetings,
I Have downloaded and built the XADumper and would like to "dump" on a JPG file with some VALID XMP data.
However, I have no application to sutff the data and no sample file that I know has something readable.
Does anyone have some they could post?
Even better, anybody have something working to stuff some valid data that can be used to create files -- or better use as a further code example?
Thanks Much,
-forrest

Hi Marc,
the XMP states (obviously):
dc:format = "image/jpeg"
xap:CreatorTool = "Adobe Photoshop CS3 Windows!"
According to the XMP it is a JPEG file. But your file is corrupted:
Each JPEG file has to start with a "Start of Image" tag, which is 0xFF, 0xD8.

Use of "Archive Source Files with Errors" for BIC module error

Hi All,
I have Edi file to Idoc scenario , where i am using SEEBURGER BICXIADAPTER.MODULE.
My question is if the input file caught in error with BIC Module e.g
"MP: exception caught with cause Error in BICMODULE-module:Temporary error: BIC XI Adapter call failed. Reason: SegmentDescription: checkAndResetChildrenCounter() not enough repetitions of the segment UNH found: 0 instead of 1 offset :80 DESCRIPTION: SegmentDescription Warning: Not enough repetitions of the segment UNH ([not specified]/[not specified])."
can we move these errornous files to another directory using Processing parameter "Archive Source Files with Errors" available with Sender File Adapter?
In File Adpater my Module tab looks like :
1 localejbs/CallBicXIRaBean Local Enterprise Bean bic
2 localejbs/CallSapAdapter Local Enterprise Bean 0
In my scenario , its not working.. do we have any other option to achive this?

Hi Jyoti,
I had a raised a similar case with SAP and came to know that archiving only works if the error raised by the module is so called "Permanent". However, bic doesn't raise permanent error due to which archiving of error files won't be possible. Seeburger haven't came up with a solution yet.

Why are you using File.endSeparator '0'. ?
Are you sure your input data doesn't have those 3 blank records in the end? Check the message payload in the sxmb_moni transaction.

Opening file with PE6 for Mac

Probably a silly question: In Bridge, how do I change the "Open With" default setting from "Preview" to "Photoshop Elements 6"? I've checked in Preferences for both PE6 and Bridge, but there doesn't seem to be a way to change that. When I double-click on an image in Bridge, I'd rather have it open directly in PE.
Thanks.

You're almost there. The whole procedure is, in Finder, click once on the icon of an unopened file of the type you want to change, then press command + i to bring up the get info window. Select PSE in Open With, and then if you want to make all files of that type open in PSE, Change All.
EDIT That's to open directly in PSE. For bridge you need to go to Bridge>preferences>File Type associations and choose where you want bridge to send that type of file.

Encoding audio files with QT for the internet

Hi group,
I would like to put my showreel up on the net in a QTime format BUT make it locked, or non-downloadable...
Is this possible?, it seems with QTpro you can download anything!
thanks

You could use a "streaming server" and free Apple software that would play your file using RTSP instead of HTTP. These files are not cached (saved) on the viewing machine.
If someone wants to keep your file they'll find a way to save it. Let them download but keep them from editing your file. As easy as drag and drop using AppleScript.
Look at this discussions page for answers and links:

AUR pastebin gives files with DOS end of line

It is advised to use a pastebin to post PKGBUILD in the comment of the AUR. But if we do this the file will always have DOS (CR-LF) end of line when downloaded. This may work but can be a problem. Any solution for this? Would be nice to be able to attach a binary file to a comment, also.
Last edited by olive (2011-02-07 22:40:05)

Well, based on what you said...the file was being created NOT on a unix box but on a windows box. So, the methods to write the lines would be putting a windows CR/LF and NOT a UNIX CR only...so yes, you could create the file in Windows and you would have to strip off the LF in each line. Naturally, if you created the file under UNIX, this would not be necessary.
There are, in fact, utilities that convert dos files to unix files...you pipe them thru and they make this modification for you.
