Reading huge flat file through SOAP adapter

Hi Everybody,
In one of our interface we need to read big flat file using soap adapter at sender side into xi and we are using java map to convert into xml. but before that i need to split this flat file into multiple files in the first message mapping. and in the second map we have to write a java map to do the flat file conversion to XMLBut i got struck up in reading this big flat file into XI as i need to declare some datatype to read this entire file. Can anybody tell me how i can do this. is it a possible to do first of all with SOAP adapter .
Thanks
raj

hi vijay,
Thanks for your prompt reply. Due to some reasons i am not allowed to use file adapter . i can use only JMS adapter or SOAP adapter. we tried few scenarios with JMS content conversion but what ever scenario i am asking here is complex at multilevel i can't even use JMS in this case. so we are thinking to read whole file using SOAP adapter and then we are planning to split the file into multiple files, as file can be huge size ,using java mapping and in next level we want to use another mapping to do content conversion. SO I have to do experiements whether this is a feasible solution or not. because when u declare at sender side
<ffdata_MT>
<Recordset>
<ROW> String type
when u declare like this and when u sent the flat file using SOAP adapter at sender side we are getting whole file which we sent at part of "ROW" as string. but inside java mapping i need to see whenther i can split this in XI ,so that i can use these split files in next mapping for content conversion. Hope i am clear now. I want to know whether it is a feasible solution or not.
I really appreciate if sombody give some idea on this
Thanks

How to handle flat file with variable delimiters in the file sender adapter

Hi friends,
I have some flat files in the ftp server and hope to poll them into XI, but before processing in XI, I hope to do some content conversion in the file sender adapter, according to the general solution, I just need to specify the field names, field seperator, end seperator, etc. But the questions is:
The fileds in the test data may have different amount of delimiters (,), for example:
ORD01,,,Z4XS,6100001746,,,,,2,1
OBJ01,,,,,,,,,,4,3
Some fileds only have 1 ',' as the delimiter, but some of them have multiple ','.
How can I handle it in the content conversion?

Bean

Send a flat file with fixed lengths to XI 3.0 using a Central File Adapter?

Hello,
I'm wondering if someone have experience setting up conversion for different record structures. The example shown,
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2004/12/15/how-to-send-a-flat-file-with-fixed-lengths-to-xi-30-using-a-central-file-adapter,
(in a greate way) only picture one kind of structure.
How should it be done if the file would contain
10Mat1
20100PCS
The first record structure has columns
ID(2),Material(10)
The second redcord structure has columns
ID(2),Quantity(3), Unit of messure (3)
Brgds
Kalle
Message was edited by: Karl Bergstrom

The configuration would be like follows:
Content Conversion Parameters:
Document Name: <your message type name>
Document Namespace: <your message type namespace>
Document Offset: <leave empty>
Recordset Name: <any name>
Recordset Namespace: <leave empty>
Recordset Structure: row1,,row2,
Recordset Sequence: any
Recordsets per Message: *
Key Field Name: ID
Key Field Type: String
Parameters for Recordset Structures:
row1.fieldNames ID,Material
row1.fieldFixedLengths 2,10
row1.keyFieldValue 10
row2.fieldNames ID,Quantity,UOM
row2.fieldFixedLengths 2,3,3
row2.keyFieldValue 20
Instead of row1 and row2 you can choose any name.

Prolog with soap adapter in PI

Dear All,
We run a scenario Proxy=>PI=>HTTP
The remote service accepts messages POSTed using either the form-encoded format (name, value pairs)
or the multi-part mime format which enables the files to be passed to the web service.
In both cases, the external service replies with a multi-part message.
We are going to use the SOAP adapter (plain HTTP does not support attachments)
with nosoap flagged.
What is best approach to add a prolog before the actual XML with SOAP adapter,
to simulate the form-encoded format?
Example :
USER=USER1&PASS=PASS1&DB=DB1
In the 2nd situation, how to create the different documents before the actual XML?
Example :
7d924f5b0464
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="USER"
USER1
7d924f5b0464
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="PASS"
PASS1
7d924f5b0464
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="DB"
DB1

Flat file with chinese characters

Hi all,
I am working on a solution to map a file with this structure (not xml):
//.comment 1
0~keyh2..hn~
0~it1it2..itn~key
0~it1it2..itn~key
//.comment 2
0~keyh2..hn~
0~it1it2..itn~key
0~it1it2..itn~key
0~it1it2..itn~key
This is my conversion setup
recordser.structure = comment,1,header,1,item,*
recordset.sequence = variable
keyFieldName = key
comment.fieldSeparator = .
comment.fieldStructure = key.comment
comment.keyFieldValue = //
header.fieldSeparator = ~~
header.beginSeparator = 0~~
header.endSeparator = ~~
header.fieldStructure = 0~keyh2..hn~
header.keyFieldValue = 0
item.fieldSeparator = ~~
item.beginSeparator = 0~~
item.fieldStructure = 0~it1it2..itn~key
item.keyFieldValue = 1
The problem now is that this file come from Chinese system and it is provide with chinese letters (looks like 2 bytes per letter). When I provide character encoding as ISO-2022 then adapter shows exception:
java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException
when I try to process it without passing any encoding then the exception is:
more elements in file csv structure than field names specified
Is there anyone who can help me with these?

Hi,
I think it is something wrong with the File content conversion parameters parameters.
You can avoid comment 1 and comment 2 by using the parameter Document offset.Follow this link for that:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm">http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm</a>.
I think you didn't specify the field names in the File Content Conversion parameters.
Follow these two weblogs for the File Content Conversion parameters:

Hi Shabarish,
I found a sinple solution:
File adapter picks up file from external drive
Receiver adapter saves it on XI server directory
We21 can pick up now from here!
But, next problem:
When trying to save the file port in We21 (like described in the guide) I get a message: Port incomplete, not possible to save! (mess. is green -> information).
But I cannot save the port. What is wrong?
Hm, possibly reason was that inbound and outbound file name was the same! Now its OK! Port is created!

Dirk

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

Edited by: [email protected] on Oct 29, 2008 8:44 AM

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.

How to load a flat file with lot of records

Hi,
I am trying to load a flat file with hundreds of records into an apps table. when i create the process and deploy it onto the console it asks for an input in an html form. why does it ask for an input when i have specified the input file directory in my process? is there any way around tis where in it just reads all the records from the flat file directly??is custom queues anyway related to what I am about to do?any documents on this process will be greatly appreciated.If any one can help me on this it will be great. thank you guys....

After deploying it, do you see if it is active and the status is on from the BPEL console BPEL Process tab? It should not come up to ask for input unless you are clicking it from the Dashboard tab. Do not click it from the Dashboard. Instead you should put some files into the input driectory. Wait few seconds you should see the instances of the BPEL process is created and start to process the files asynchrously.

Create a flat file with multiple characters for enclosures

Hello,
we use OWB 11g2 (11.2.02).
Now we try to create a flat file with multiple characters for enclosures. The manual wrote:
"Enclosures (Left and Right): Some delimited files contain enclosures that denote text strings within a field. If the file contains enclosures, enter an enclosure character in the text box or select one from the list. The list displays commonenclosures. However, you may enter any character. The default for both the left and right enclosure is the double quotation mark ("). You can specify multiple characters and hexadecimal characters as field enclosures."
But it will not work. The OWB use the first character from the left enclosure definition as left enclosure and the second one as right enclosure !?!
Did anyone know this behavior? Is there a solution for this problem?
Thanks and regards
Norbert

HI Raghu,
Use the function module 'GUI_UPLOAD'.
In that you have to specify the field_separator value = 'X' in export section.
