Getting file directory using dynamic configuration:Code needed

Hi,
I need the code for getting the source file directory name using dynamic configuration. Also, an explanation on how it can be used in mapping for comparison.
Thanks,
Vishal

Hi Vishal,
Refer carefully the following blog by micheal to get the Attributes dynamically during runtime by enabling the Adapter Specific message Attributes in adapter level.
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/11/10/xi-the-same-filename-from-a-sender-to-a-receiver-file-adapter--sp14
Create an UDF in mapping with no input parameters to it and include the piece of code and use it according to your requirement in mapping.
//write your code here
try{
String filedirectory    = "";
DynamicConfiguration conf1 = (DynamicConfiguration) container
    .getTransformationParameters()
    .get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","Directory");
filedirectory = conf1.get(key1);
return filedirectory;
catch(Exception e)
     String exception = e.toString();
      return exception;
Thanks,
Ram.

Target file name using Dynamic Configuration

Hi,
Currently we have requirement Idoc to File interface.In this scenario if one field exists infile then we have to check and we need to create update directory and if it is not exist then we should create one more directory and upload files over there there files should create with timestamp. Since,File system using Sql database so we have used JDBC lookup to check that particaluar field and if it exists we are passing update to UDF if it is not then we are passing constant Create to that. If we use Adapter Specific Message Attributes then in reciever side file Communication Channel addtimestap will it consider or do we have to write anything in Udf it self? Could anybody explain on this?Please provide some sample udf .
Thanks ,
Aparna.

Hi,
        I have added little changes to the code you have written, to meet your expectations
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","Directory");
conf.put(key,"/sap-dev/" +a);
DynamicConfiguration conf1 = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
string filename=conf1.get(key1);
final String DATE_FORMAT_NOW = "dd-MM-yyyy_HH-mm-ss";
String s;
java.text.SimpleDateFormat sdf = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat(DATE_FORMAT_NOW);
java.util.Calendar cal = java.util.Calendar.getInstance();
s=sdf.format(cal.getTime());
filename=a+" "+"User_"+s+".txt";
conf1.put(key1,filename);
return " ";
So if value of input variable "a" is "update" then the target directory will be "/sap-dev/update" and the file formed will have name "update User_26-12-2011_01-20-50.txt", of course the date and time values will change depending on server settings. I just showed a sample. one more point, the directory will not be created, you have to create the directories before you run the scenario, only the final directory will be decided depending on value of variable "a". In case you wanna create new directory if directory is not pre-existing then try ticking on "Create Target Directory" option under "file access parameters" in communication channel. (I have never used this option u can have a try. )
Now coming to your queries
1. But whether file type txt automatically it will take or do we have to give in udf it self ?
ans) You have to put the value in UDF as I have done in code.
2.    how it will consider timestamp ?
ans) This has been generated in UDF itself.
3. how i can give file extension .txt?
ans) same as ans 1
4. And also in Receiver Communication Channel under Adapter Specific Message attributes we have option of file type how it works?
ans) File type determines is the file you are going to write is of type "text" or "binary". From "Processing Parameters" tab you can select this from drop down menu in communication channel or you can set it through ASMA properties in similar manner as you have done for file name and directory name. For more details refer to http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bc/bb79d6061007419a081e58cbeaaf28/content.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/44/6830e67f2a6d12e10000000a1553f6/content.htm
Finally few more points I would like to add
1) you have not mentioned the operating system of the server where file is going to form. In case its UNIX/LINUX you are not allowed to use space in the filename. you can consult these links before you decide on file name and directory name in the UDF mentioned above
http://www.med.nyu.edu/rcr/rcr/nyu_vms/unixfileanddirectorynames.htm     (UNIX)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365247(v=vs.85).aspx#naming_conventions (WINDOWS)
2) you can alter the string "DATE_FORMAT_NOW" as per your requirement so that the timestamp appears in the way you want. I have just showed a sample.
3) Plesae do not forget to tick on the options "Use Adapter-Specific Message Attributes indicator", "Fail If Adapter-Specific Message Attributes Missing", indicators "File Name" and "Directory" under "Define Adapter-Specific Message Attributes." in receiver communication channel.
Hope this solves your problem.
Wish my dear forum members and users of SDN
Merry Christmas and Happy new year (in advance)
Regards
Anupam
N.B:- I initially forgot to add the ".txt" part to the file name. I made necessary corrections in code now.

Proxy to file using dynamic configuration

Hi Frnds,
I have a scenario ABAP_Proxy-XI-File, here in the proxy I am getting a pdf file with xml as attachment now I need to save the pdf file to the target folder with the name availble in one of the fields of attached xml file.
I have used Adapter specific attributes option for filename substitution but getting the follwoing error:
Attempt to process file failed with com.sap.aii.adapter.file.configuration.DynamicConfigurationException: The Adapter Message Property 'FileName' was configured as mandatory element, but there is no 'DynamicConfiguration' element in the XI Message header
Please anyone can help me in overcoming this issue.
Regards
shiva

U have a limitation here. At XI u can read only 1 file (pdf or xml). Bcoz receiver file adapter will not support attachment. pdf is required bcoz u need to transfer it to receiver. Xml is also required bcoz the directory name is inside that xml
The workaround could be creating an adpater module that passes the directory name as well. U should send pdf file with xml as attachment.
If u have the dir name, then the dynamic configuration code should be like this
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","Directory");
conf.put(key,MappedDirectoryName);
This MappedDirectoryName should be the name passed through payload. The receiver file communiation channel must have dummy dir name

Change Directory Path using Dynamic Configuration

Hi,
We have a requirement where the directory path for placing the files is different across our different environments. Ex: Development Environment has a different path than the Quality Enviornmnet. Also the full path is depending on fileds within the message.
I want to use Dynamic Configuration to create the Directory path. But in order to capture the full requirement I need to know wheich environment I am within the User Defined Function.
Can someone provide me the java class and function that I can use in my UDF to read the environment I am in.
( Essentially I want to read Sy-SYSID in ABAP...using Java. )
Regards,
Arunava

Hi Arunva,
>>Essentially I want to read Sy-SYSID in ABAP...using Java.
It might not be possible to read system id in java, but you can read the sender or receiver service(SENDER_SERVICE or RECEIVER_SERVICE) and based on it can decide the diretory in DynamicConfiguration.
If you have a sender or receiver SAP sysem then better to read its name because this business systm ill haeunique name aross different environment. Check this thread too
User-defined function: RFC call

Using Dynamic Configuration api for SOAP adapter

I want to use Dynamic Configuration api to send a SOAP request to a webservice.
tha value in my adapter is
my Target URL is
http://xidr3.bcs.de:50000/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet? channel=:Routing2_Service:SS_SOAP_Sender_Working_June12&nosoap=true
which is the corresponding field i have to set in Dynamic Configuration?
I have written the following code is this right?
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
String temp = "http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/SOAP";
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create(temp, "TServerLocation");
String varURL =
"http:/"+"/xidr3.bcs.de:50000/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=:Routing2_Service:SS_SOAP_Sender_Working_June12&nosoap=true";
conf.put(key,varURL);
return "";

Hi,
Yes, your code looks fine. Can you let me know what is the error you are getting. Have you checked the Flag in your communication channel.
Use Adapter-Specific Message Attributes
Variable Transport Binding
Once you test your scenario you can see the Dynamic URL in your message Header by going to tcode sxmb_moni. See if you are able to find something called DynamicConfiguration in your message haeader. If yes what is the value set there.
PS: From the target URL you posted It looks like your webservice is hosted on the XI box itself. Is it the same XI box or different box? Just curious to know.
Reward point if answer is helpful

I manage 60 ipads for a school using Apple Configurator. Need to update to iOS7 and AC1.4.3...Is it best to use Mountain Lion or Mavericks, as I also need to update from Lion 10.7 for the new AC and iOS to work properly.

I manage 60 ipads for a school using Apple Configurator. Need to update my devices to iOS7 and Apple Configurator to 1.4.3...Is it best to use Mountain Lion or Mavericks, as I also need to update from Lion 10.7 for the new Apple Configurator and iOS7 to work properly.

I always run a Time Machine backup before updating anything and recommend you run a backup as well. Paid apps should migrate over without any problem. If you have problems with VPP codes not transfering over properly, you can talk to your Apple SE or contact VPP for Education support and they can help you. While I haven't experienced any problems with updating, its never a guarantee that others will have the same experience.

Accesing Runtime Parameters using Dynamic configuration

Hi..
Can we access the following parameters from mapping using DYNAMIC CONFIGURATION key?
<SAP:TraceLevel>1</SAP:TraceLevel>
<SAP:LogSeqNbr>000</SAP:LogSeqNbr>
<SAP:RetryLogSeqNbr>000</SAP:RetryLogSeqNbr>
<SAP:QIdInternal>XBTI0001</SAP:QIdInternal>
Please let me know how to access
Thanks
Ram

Hi Ram,
I dont think we can achieve this one,only two ways to read any values at mapping level
1)Dynamic Configuration--Option ruled out....not possible,
2)Write some java coding to read the value,i think this one also not work it out.
your req unique..i am looking for answer..:)

Get IDoc-number from flat IDoc using dynamic configuration

Dear experts
In an IDoc2File scenario I have added the IDoc-number to dynamic configuration using the folling code in an UDF:
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration)
container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey FileName = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","DOCNUM");
conf.put(FileName, a);
The information is stored in the SOAP message
<SAP:DynamicConfiguration SOAP:mustUnderstand="1">
<SAP:Record namespace="http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" name="DOCNUM">0000000000012345</SAP:Record>
</SAP:DynamicConfiguration>
Can anybody tell me how I can access this information in the "variable substitution" section of the CC? Perhaps something like "message:docnum"?
Additional information:
Taking the IDoc-number from the payload using e.g. "payload:ORDERS05,1,IDOC,1,EDI_DC40,1,DOCNUM,1" does not work, since the XML-IDoc has been converted to an flat-IDoc.
Thanks in advance for any good ideas
Markus

Dear Rodrigo and Sarvesh
Thanks for your help so far! I applied your hints and now it is working fine.
But now I have the following additional questions
1.) My message mapping only maps the input IDoc to an output IDoc of the same type and structure. The MM is only required to process the UDF. Is there another, better solution to achieve my requirement that the IDoc-number shall be part of the filename?
2.) In the CC you have the possibility to use temporary files (section "Processing", Option "Put File" = "Use Temporary File". I think this will not work with the given solution, will it?
To possibly help somebody else or clarify the mechanism once again, I wrote down how my solution now looks like.
My UDF in the message-mapping looks like this
- Input = DOCNUM of IDoc, e.g. ORDERS05/IDOC/EDIDC/DOCNUM
- Outpt = DOCNUM of IDoc, e.g. ORDERS05/IDOC/EDIDC/DOCNUM
- UDF:
public String putDynamicConfiguration(String docnum, Container container) throws StreamTransformationException{
try
     DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
     DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
     String filename = "Prefix_" + docnum + ".txt";
     conf.put(key, filename);
     return docnum;
catch (Exception e)
     return docnum;
In the CC the settings are now as follows
File Name Scheme = . -> only a dot or something else, because this field is obligatory, even if it is not used in this case.
Variable substitution (...)
    Enable -> unchecked
Adapter-Specific Message Attributes
    Use Adapter-Specific Message Attributes -> checked
    Fail If Adapter-Specific Message Attributes Missing -> checked
    File Name -> checked
    Directory, File Type, Temporary Name Scheme for Target File Name -> unchecked
When I send an IDoc to PI and view the Adapte-Engine Version of the message (the SOAP-document, not the payload) I can find the Filename:
<SAP:DynamicConfiguration SOAP:mustUnderstand="1">
<SAP:Record namespace="http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" name="FileName">Prefix_0000000000012345.txt</SAP:Record>
</SAP:DynamicConfiguration>

Getting an error in Dynamic Configuration

Hi Guys,
I need to dynamically post the file into different directories based on the file in the source payload.
In Receiver File Communication Channel
Target Directory : *
Filename : *
Checked the ASMA Attributes for filename and directory
Iam refering this weblog
/people/william.li/blog/2006/04/18/dynamic-configuration-of-some-communication-channel-parameters-using-message-mapping
In the mapping
<filename> ---> UDF --> topnode of target message.
My UDF is as below
public String Directory(String a,Container container){
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "Directory");
String FileName = conf.get(key);
FileName = a;
conf.put(key, FileName);
String Directory = conf.get(key1);
Directory = "/SAPInterface/XI/PPD/DHX/out";
conf.put(key1, Directory);
return " ";
But in runtime(moni) iam getting error as
com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.MessagingException: The Adapter Message Property 'FileName' was configured as mandatory element, but there is no 'DynamicConfiguration' element in the XI Message header: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.configuration.DynamicConfigurationException: The Adapter Message Property 'FileName' was configured as mandatory element, but there is no 'DynamicConfiguration' element in the XI Message header
Please suggest me how to correct this.
Thanks
Srinivas

Hi Srinivas,
You said you are having dynamic directories to post the file. But I see you hardcorded or put constant for directory which is /SAPInterface/XI/PPD/DHX/out. I think you need to put //SAPInterface/XI/PPD/DHX/out.
Try this in udf:
public String Directory(String a,Container container){
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "Directory");
String FileName = conf.get(key);
FileName = a;
conf.put(key, FileName);
Directory = "//SAPInterface/XI/PPD/DHX/out";
conf.put(key1, Directory);
return " ";
Put FileName and Directory in file name and directory paramters in receiver communication cahnnel and cehck.

Get File Information using the Document ID in Javascript

I store in a custom list the Document Id of a linked document. I need to retrieve some metadata - at least the filename - of that document. I have tried using the Search REST API specifying something like "DocID:INGX1-2-26" in my search query,
but nothing is returned, nothing found.
Is there any other way to get the file info when all I have is the Document ID? In the managed code, I could use the Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.dll which provides a way to get the file info using the DocId, but this is not available in Javascript.
Any ideas?
thanks.

Hi,
As a workaround, we can create a custom web service with the Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.dll, then you can call the web service using JavaScript.
Here are some links about Building and Consuming Custom WCF Services hosted in SharePoint for your reference:

Using dynamic configuration to modify parameter in sender channel?

Hi,
I would like to be able to set the filename in an SFTP sender communication channel (based upon a name determined at runtime, which is read from another file).
My understanding is that parameters set in dynamic configuration can only be set as part of mapping therefore I cannot see how to set these before my sender communication channel is invoked.
Please can someone confirm if there is a method of achieving this requirement.
Thanks,
Alan

Hi,
>>>My understanding is that parameters set in dynamic configuration can only be set as part of mapping therefore I cannot see how to set these before my sender communication channel is invoked.
they can be set anywhere in the message flow - in adapter modules too for example
>>>I would like to be able to set the filename in an SFTP sender communication channe
you cannot set it before the adapter starts polling from anything else
what you can do is to create a file -> java proxy (sftp) - anything flow
read this another file first -> call SFTP from a java proxy in a sync way to fetch the second file using the name from the first one -> do anything else what you need
you can also do the same with one adapter - axis (put the file fetching and sftp call inside one class)
but it requires some java knowledge - but it would work in one sender adapter in this case

UDF Using Dynamic Configuration for Counter Reset

Hi All,
In an Idoc to file scenario we want to have counter option at the end of the file.we are using NFS so that we wil not face any problem of counter reset on a j2ee restart
But when the counter turns 999999 it has to be reset to 0000001
So we are trying to dynamically create a file name using the counter and check whether it has reached 999999 then resetting back . I had written a code for the same but it is throwing an error while mapping and activating.
UDF CODE is below
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION) ;
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName") ;
String FileName = conf.get(key) ;
int inc = 1 ;
String temp = FileName.substring(10,6);
String temp1 = FileName.substring(0,10);
Integer seqNo = Integer.parseInt(temp) ;
if(seqNo == 0 || seqNo == 999999) {
seqNo = new Integer(inc) ;
else {
int num = seqNo.intValue() + inc ;
seqNo = new Integer(num) ;
container.setParameter("seqNo", seqNo);
String File_Name = temp1 + Integer.toString(seqNo);
conf.put(key, File_Name);
return File_Name;
ERROR it is throwing

I used Dynamic SQL EXECUTE IMMEDIATE to drop partions. But error occured. If I commented EXECUTE IMMEDIATE, procedure executed successfully.
Please suggest me, where i did the mistake. Also please suggest for better code than my code. please find below code and error details.

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

PL/SQL code runs on the server, inside an Oracle process - thus PL/SQL code cannot dynamically write and display messages to the client. That server process is not connected to any keyboard, mouse or display.
DBMS_OUTPUT can be used. This is a PL/SQL buffer area in that server process that code can write lines of text too. When the server process informs the client that it has completed, the client can now request the contents of the DBMS_OUTPUT buffer and the client can display it on the client device.
This is what set serveroutput on in SQL*Plus does - tell the sqlplus client to request the DBMS_OUTPUT buffer after each Oracle server call made and to display the contents locally.
So to display the SQL command can be done using DBMS_OUTPUT. E.g.
declare
dropPart varchar2(32767);
begin
for c in (select...) loop
    dropPart := 'alter table my_tab drop partition '||c.partition_name';
    --// write the SQL command to DBMS_OUTPUT
    DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line( dropPart );
    --// execute the SQL using a begin..end block in order to catch error
    begin
      execute immediate dropPart;
      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line( 'command completed successfully' );
    exception when OTHERS then
      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line( 'command failed with: '||SQLERRM(SQLCODE) );
    end;
end loop;
end;So after this code block has been executed and partitions dropped, sqlplus will display the DBMS_OUTPUT generated by this code block.

How can we get the file name with out payload using sync read.
For normal read (Inbound Spec)we have UseHeaders="true" property.
Is there any property for sync read to read the file name.
Please help me
