Getting hyperlink formula from field objects.

Hi everyone,
I'm looking to extend the export to .pdf functionality in order to include hyperlinks. I have already ran some proof of concept programs, and I'm able to export to .pdf and add a hyperlink to a rectangular area of an existing .pdf document. The only thing left is to be able to pull the information regarding field location, size and hyperlink from the report.
So, that's my question; How do I loop through the fields of an existing crystal report, check for hyperlink formula field, then get the link text/field position and size?
I know that I'm asking for a lot here... I don't need full code samples, just some hints where to start... for example:
- Where do I find the collection of generated data field objects?
- Where do I find the hyperlink text on those objects?
Thanks, in advance, for any help that you may be able to offer.
- Scott

Hi Scott,
The first place I go is to the .NET Object browser. You have to add all of the CR Assemblies to get all of the info but it's a great place to start:
Just search on "hyperlink" and you get this first hit and a few more:
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.ViewerObjectModel.ReportObjectInstance.HyperLink
CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.ObjectInfo.Hyperlink
CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.ISCRObjectFormat.HyperlinkText
CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.ISCRObjectFormat.HyperlinkType
Here's what I typically include in my projects for testing:
using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine;
using CrystalDecisions.Shared;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ClientDoc;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.CommonControls;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.CommLayer;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.CommonObjectModel;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ObjectFactory;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataSetConversion;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel;
using CrystalDecisions.ReportSource;
using CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms;
Then go to help.sap.com and get the latest SDK Help files. Or if you are using VS 2010 then use the local install of it.
Thank you

Hi,
You can get it from "User" or "Shop" business object.
Try to get User or Shop Business Object as shown below.
BusinessObjectManager bom = (BusinessObjectManager) userSessionData.getBOM(BusinessObjectManager.ISACORE_BOM);
User user = bom.getUser();
char decimalNotation = user.getDecimalPointFormat().getGroupingSeparator();
If you are seeing "1,234.00" then above code will return "."
I hope this information help you to resolve your issue.

How to get a formula from the user from a text box in a webpage

Hi. I would like to know how to get the formula from the user who enters in a textbox. This formula can have any number of variables starting with a and goes on.
The complexity of the formula can go upto sin, cos, ln, exp. Also user enters the minimum and maximum values of these variables. Based on a specific algorithm (which I use) I would calculate a *set of values, say 10, for each of these variables, substitute in the formula and based on the result of this formula, I select ONE suitable value for each of the variables.
I don't know how to get this formula (which most likely to be different each time) and substitute the values *which I found earlier.
Kindly help me out in this issue.
Thanks

The textbox is the easy part. It's no different than getting a String parameter out of an HTTP request.
The hard part is parsing the String into a "formula" for evaluation. You'll have to write a parser or find one.
Google for "Java math expression parser" and see what you get.
Or write your own with JavaCC.

How to get attribute value from an object inside an object in Xpress

Does anyone know how to get an attribute value from an object in Xpress in a workflow? I have an object structured as follows:
<ResourceInfo accountId='mj628' tempId='3483372b787ce7dd:-5d99a0c5:130cb238483:-3600'>
<ObjectRef type='Resource' name='Google Apps'/>
</ResourceInfo>
I need if possible to get the name='Google Apps', which is inside the ObjectRef, so I guess its an attribute value of an object inside an object.

If the ResourceInfo object is accessible in a variable, i.e. named "myResInfo", you just have to check the Java API and call the relevant method:
<invoke name='getResourceName'>
<ref>myResInfo</ref>
</invoke>

Getting static member from Field

Hello,
I have a 'static type safe enum class' and I want to use reflection to implement its toString() method, the String returned should be the name of the field.
(Note that the static instance variables themselves do not have String fields that could be used for the toString() return value.)
I am able to iterate through all fields of the class and print out the names using getName()
But not sure how to compare the types of the fields to a particular type. For example:
for (int i = 0; i < fields.length; i++)
Field field = fields;
// how to compare a field to know if it is a
// particular static instance field
if (field.getType().equals(MyEnum.A_STATIC_INSTANCE))
return field.getName();

for (int i = 0; i < fields.length; i++)
Field field = fields;
Object fieldValue = field.get(null);
if (fieldValue == this) return field.getName();
throw new IllegalStateException();Note that [code] tags produce the pretty formatting in this post.

Is there any way to get an array from an object?

public class X {
byte[] a = new byte[] {0x10,0x20};
//Native method
public native short testnative(X b);
//C++
JNIEXPORT jshort JNICALL Java_Native_testnative1 (JNIEnv *env , jobject obj, jobject testobj)
Is there any way to get byte[] a from jobject testobj ?
Pprimitive types and objects can be get by JNI functions(like GetIntField, GetObjectField etc.), but I didn't find fucntions like GetXXXArrayField(), then how can I do that?

Hint: an array is an object.

How to Get property values from Shared Object in client's load event - Very urgent

I am using shared object to share data between two users. First user connect to shared object and set some value in shared object. Please consider that second user has not connected with the shared object yet.
Now when second user connects to the server and try to get that property set by first user, he could get shared object but could not get properties of Shared object set by first user. I observed few times that Second user can get these properties within "Sync" event between two users. But I would like to get these values for Second user in any stage (i.e. in load event etc.). Whenever Second user tries to get the property of Shared object, the object will reset the actual property value and then return reset value.
Anyone faced such issue while using shared object between two users. If so, I would appreciate if you could let me know your suggestions for following questions:
1) Is there any way to get all the properties of shared object before sync event called, as I want to get it immediately when second user connect to the application and perform next task based on the values stored in shared object.
2) Is it possible for second user to check whether any property has been set by first user? So that second user can use the property instead of reset it.
Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.

How to get a value from an object

Here is the concept of something I want to do in PowerShell:
$exp = get-process explorer | select *
$pms64 = get_value( $exp, PagedMemorySize64 )
As I see it, the value would be available to use. Using that technique I could get other values then order them to write to a log file.
How should I do this?
Please make the answer as simple as possible. What search term can I use to find a tutorial on this topic?
~jag77 We need to know what a dragon is before we study its anatomy. (Bryan Kelly, 2010)

Hi,
Here's a simple way to get at a single property:
$pms64 = (Get-Process explorer).PagedMemorySize64
$pms64
For the purpose of writing to a log file, you'd be better off piping the object through Select-Object to get the properties you're interested in and then into Export-Csv or Out-File to create the output.
Get-Process explorer |
Select-Object -Property Name,Id,PagedMemorySize64 |
Export-Csv .\explorerStats.csv -NoTypeInformation

How to get hyperlinks labels from javascript

Folks,
in my jsp, i'm using custom tags to generate hyperlinks. Now what i want is to have the label of the hyperlinks in the javascript. How can i do that. I tried document.anchors but it gives me zero length array. Is there any other way of doing it.

JSP generates the HTML (and possibly Javascript) that the browser displays. Once the browser is displaying it, the JSP page's work is already long done, and is not "running" anymore. So there's no connection between your JSP page and what's in the browser.
JSP does not change how HTML works, only how it's generated.
Otherwise you are asking a Javascript question, and Java != Javascript, so you should go find a Javascript forum.

Hi How to get XML file from servlet that XI sent to my J2EE appl?

Hi All!
I have a scenario like XI sends xml file to j2ee application. In my J2EE application my servlet receives this xml. Will the xml file be in my HTTPServletRequest object? if so how to get that file from Request object.
Please help me its urgent, Any code help is highly appreciated.

You can use HTTPServletRequest object to get the XML payload.
BufferedReader reader = request.getReader(); //gets XML payload

Formula in Fields and get data from fields together

Hi, I was trying to setup formula in fields as follows:
U_Test & U_Test are numeric fields.
SELECT ($[INV1.U_Test.Number]-$[INV1.U_Test3.Number])*0.1
The outcome should be (U_Test-U_Test3)*0.1
U_Test2 & U_Test5 are alphnumeric fields.
SELECT $[INV1.U_Test2]+[INV1.U_Test5])
The outcome should be U_Test2U_Test5
I have been struggling in the syntax error. Can you help me out?
Thanks.
Raymond

I think better u can create the UDF again.
Test - Numeric - 10
Test1 - Numeric - 10
Then use this query
Select $[$38.U_Test.number] + $[$38.U_Test2.number]
I hope UDF can be case sensitive. It is working properly for me.
Sample:
Select case when ($[por1.U_x.number] *$[por1.U_y.number]) > 15 then 15 else ($[por1.U_x.number] *$[por1.U_y.number]) end
here x,y are UDF created as numeric.
