Getting physical path from logical path

Hi,
I am using the FM FILE_GET_NAME  to get the physical path for a given logical path which I have specified within the FILE transaction.
The code works fine when I run the program in foreground but it doesn't work when I run it in background.
Can anyone advise on why this is and how I can get this to work correctly in background aswell as foregroud.
The ultimate goal is to be able to poll a directory on the SAP server (which could be windows or unix) and to process the files in there.
Thanks,
Ruby

Thank-you.
I would prefer to to use a default path if possible. The reason I defined a logical path was so that this could be defined outside the program.
Are you saying I cannot use this FM in background at all?
Is there another FM which will do the same thing but will work in background?
What I am trying to do is create a program which will run in the background polling a particular directory and then process the files in this directory if it finds any.
Do you know how I could achieve this using logical paths rather than using hardcoded paths?

  • LSMW accept file from logical path?

    Dear All,
    Can LSMW designs for conversions accept file from logical path?
    The requirement is during actual conversion execution -the conversion team can store files anywhere they want, configure logical file names/paths and use our LSMWs without needing program modifications.
    Kindly let me know.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi
    there is a immediate requirement ,
    I have logical file path but I need to get physical file path from it.
    So is there any FM which providesthis functionality.
    Points will be rewarded.
    Thanks

    Can you please share the piece of code ?
    Which File APIs are you using ?
    For java file, you can get complete path by simple method call : getAbsolutePath() on file object.

  • LSMW - source file from Logical Path and Files?

    Hi,
    When specifing the source file (legacy data) you want to use to load from - you can choose a file from the application server.
    For the application server file does anyone know is there anyway that you can use a logical path and file to represent this source file?
    I do not see this option in LSMW and am surprised at this as it necessitates changing the LSMW in each target system.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Is there an upgrade path from Logic Pro 9 to Logic Pro X?

    I convinced a friend to purchase Logic Pro 9, not knowing version X was about to be released 3 weeks later.   Even though upgrade path always crosses my mind prior to a software purchase, I was not worried - this was Apple.  Now it's looking like there's not a built-in upgrade path at all (as there IS with just about every other software company I have bought from).  Is this for real?  This friend has version 9, and I have version X.  So this friend learned everything there is to know about version 9, then I bought version X not even knowing we were out of synch on versions.   We were hoping to work on songwriting together, but paying $200 again is out of the question.  I notice that the file save under version X has extension .logicx, so is it even possible to exchange files?

    my friend with Logic Pro 9 can send files to me but they cannot accept files created with Logic Pro X.
    Which is exactly what i said earlier....
    You can open Logic Pro 9 projects in LPX but not the other way around.
    Apple wouldn't even give me a refund on Logic Pro X (purchased just 3 days ago), which is useless to me now.
    There are no refunds from the App Store... That is what you agreed to when you purchased a license for LPX.
    Your choice is simply for your friend to update to Logic Pro X or use the audio stem process I outlined earlier (Not something i would recommend doing for any period of time)... or spend even more money on purchasing two copies of a different DAW...  and taking the time to learn them and spending time converting over what your friend has already created... and hope your friend hasn't been using the internal plugins found only in Logic Pro... otherwise you have even more work to do...
    The reality is, the sensible solution is simply to upgrade LP9 to LPX for $200... (and think of it as the upgrade price even though you can buy the full version for the same amount but that really doesn't matter does it?) Less outlay, less time lost and less hassle, but as always the choice is yours...
    I have never, EVER, encountered a software company that treated customers that way.
    Then you haven't been in the computer business that long......
    Seriously though, you haven't been treated that badly...
    You bought LPX at a price that is basically a steal.... and your friend bought LP9 at the same 'deal' of a price.. compared to what Logic Pro used to cost ($1000)
    You can 'upgrade' from LP9 to LPX for $200 which is much cheaper than it used to cost to upgrade from , say LP8 to LP9... and the same price as it cost to upgrade to LP9 via the App Storeprior to the release of LPX
    The alternatives at this stage would cost you much more money......time.. and hassle..
    The only things that truly frustrating is the timing of your friend's purchase of LP9... For that he has my sympathies but it happens... Some people who bought Logic Pro 9 within a month of Logic Pro X being released were given refunds on the LP9 purchase if they bought LPX... Your friend just left it way too late.... Apple has since stopped such refunds.... and you didn't do the research you should have done before you jumped in and bought LPX... Unfortunate but sadly true.
    Again, you and your friend have my sympathies for whatever they are worth... but at least the obvious solution is still cheap compared to what the alternatives could cost you now and in the past!

  • Available webservice/tool that returns the physical qry from logical qry?

    Is there any obiee webservice or program that returns the physical query by receiving the logical query as a parameter ?
    What we are looking for is to have a "process" that use the logic that bi server has to resolve the reports using the metadata (rpd) to derive the physical query.
    It should be like the logic that is behind the "issue direct sql" function. But instead of pasting the logical query into the text box we will be passing it as a parameter in a custom process.
    Many thanks,

  • Since logic express is discontinued, can i get the updates from logic pro for free?

    logic pro was recently priced at 199, effectively replacing logic express. it seems as though apple should allow logic express users to get the additional functionality of logic pro withought buying the entire product again.

    @Blueberry - lol I wonder if you'll sing the same tune if they discontinue logic pro and then force you to buy "logic studio" for $500 (current price 2012). See this guy's comment on the product page of the online store:
    "I have been producing music on logic since before Apple acquired it from the previous developer.
    I purchased Logic Pro 7 from Apple for $1000, and i have since spent another $500+ in "upgrades" to get to the current format of logic Pro 9. Shortly after my reluctant upgrade from 8 to 9, Apple released a promotional price of $300 for the entire program. That is just a little more than I paid to upgrade. Still no discount for upgrades though. In short loyal long time customers have now paid over $1,500.00 to get a $300 program. A slight kick in the pants for its Pro oriented customers. As a pro user you can add 7 computers, 4 iphones, 3 ipads and some ipods to that shopping cart as well.
    In that time I have watched Apple drop Key production features out of Logic in order to make room for programming codes that dumb down the DAW interface and create undesired glitches within the frame of what was an excellent platform from Emagic.
    Now that Mac has solidified its abandonment of the professional grade market by dropping the mac pro and pretty much all R&D for Logic as well, I find myself more and more disappointed with logics performance. Another product that has let go of functionality for aesthetics.
    I have, in fact, spent well over 40 hours reverting and reformatting my system back to Snow Leopard (very difficult as Mac firmware no longer supports reverse compatibility) but also reverting logic to a version of LP9 that is stable within that operating system. I had to do this as there is no version of LP9 that works properly in any operating system after SL.
    OS 10.6.8 + Logic 9.1.6/7 is the most stable combo that will run on intel based Mac. Trust me.. I tried the rest. I would prefer to go back to logic pro 7 but once again No reverse compatibility.
    Hopefully the 2software developers... Yes two... still working on logic will at least make it stable again so we can finish our mixes and move to another software manufacturer.
    Sorry Mac but after years of total loyalty you left me and the Professional market out in the cold."
    So - I already paid about $200 for logic express and now I have to pay $200 more for something I never wanted?

  • Create physical erd from logical erd

    I have created the logical ER diagram using designer 6.0.
    I would like to know the steps involved in creating the physical ERD (diagram).
    I have already done the database transformation sucessfully. I opened the design editor where i can see the relational model with all entities listed. But
    i do not see the physical ER model. I was expecting the
    Physical ER model in the server model diagram. If i try to open the server model it gives me an option to create a new physical ER diagram. Am i looking in the wrong place ?

    In the Design Editor:
    Drag the Table names (under Relational Table Definitions) to the empty spot (dark grey) of the GUI on the right side. It will create a new diagram and put the table(s) and any related FK constraint lines on the new diagram.
    HTH.
    Thanks, George

    could you pls tell me how to do this using parameter for user input selecting FILE PATH.
    Do we have Functional module for Retrieving physical path
    from logical path?
    could you pls help me..

    hey,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Instead of using logical file name as input, can we allow the user to select logical path using parameter?
    I want user to select Logical path or logical file name from parameter. is it possible?

  • What is the best way to get PATHS from one Photoshop psd file to another?

    Hi! New on the site, and I signed up specifically to ask the best way to import one .psd file into another, including the paths on the paths palette.
    Almost all of my Photoshop drawings make heavy use of vector paths, which I then stroke using using PS natural-media brushes and the "stroke paths" function (usually with "simulate pressure" checked.) Also, my .psd files tend to be, um, HUGE... and I typically break up a whole drawing into separate PS files and then assemble all of them into one final finished graphic.
    I have no trouble moving raster stuff from file to file. Just put all the layers I want to transfer into a group and drag the group to the other .psd. Works fine, including layer masks. But I have not found a good way to get vector paths from the Paths palette of one .psd to another. Of course I can select paths and copy them to the Win clipboard, switch to the other .psd, and paste them back in. The drawback to that method is that I lose the correct size relation between the results of previously done "stroke paths" operations (on raster layers) and the paths that generated them. Sometimes the copied-in paths are way too large, sometimes way too small, never Just Right.
    As I'm sure most of you know, if you resize an entire Photoshop document from within PS, any paths it contains are correctly resized along with everything else. That's no longer true after grouped raster layers are dragged over to another document but paths are copied and pasted in. The size connection is lost. (Location placement, too.)
    I WANT those paths! After I bring a piece of a drawing into the full final drawing, what looked good when I was working on it separately often doesn't look right any longer and I want to re-stroke those paths using different brush diameter, opacity, etc., or maybe even a completely different brush.
    I've tried bring outside .psd files in as smart objects with the Place command but either that doesn't work or I'm not doing it right. Using Place, the paths in the Placed document don't come in at all.
    I'll be very grateful for any hints or strategies any of you knowledgeable folks can give me. Thanks very much!

    1. Connect the two macs - firewire, ethernet, sneakernet as suits you - and copy the iPhoto Library Folder from Old Machine to New Machine. Drag it from Home/Pictures to the same location on the new machine.
    2. Because all the files 'belong' to the account on the old machine, you have to update the file permissions: hence Download BatchMod from
    http://macchampion.com/arbysoft/
    And apply it to the iPhoto Library Folder using the settings found here:
    http://homepage.mac.com/toad.hall/.Pictures/Forum/BatChmod.png

  • Physical path and Logical name in File adapter

    Hi All-
    I am using a file adapter, in which i need to specify the physical path or logical path.
    In dev environment my file adapter's input path is /c01/interface/dev/input, but in my test environment it is /u01/interface/test/input.
    So everytime I have to change the path and deploy it in two different environment.
    I am using unix environment, is there any way i can use some environmental variable $INPUT_DIR and use it in logical name so that in logical name i can use as $INPUT_DIR/input, where in dev $INPUT_DIR will be /c01/interface/dev and in test environment it is /u01/interface/test.
    I have tried this but there is still some probelm, I want to know is the approach I am using is correct? or is there any other solution for it?

    Hi,
    1. physical name: use a specific directory (e.g. /u01/....
    2. logical name: use a LogicalDirectory like "InputFileDir" and rewrite this inside the bpel.xml

    and
    http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/integrate.1013/b28981/appx_deploydesc.htm#CHDBDIIF
    But what about creating a softlink like this on your testsystem:
    ln -s /u01 /c01

  • Logical file name or logical path name incorrectly defined

    Dear All,
    We are doing archival in our IDES for test purpose before we do it to our Production.
    Steps Performed
    Copied AM_ASSET archive object to ZAM_ASSET
    Logical Path
      Logical path    ZAM_ASSET
      Name            Asset
      Syntax group    UNIX       Unix compatible
      Physical path   /archive/test/<FILENAME>
    Logical File Name
       Logical file    ZAMASSET
       Name            Asset
       Physical file   FI_<MONTH>_<DAY>.txt
       Data format     ASC
       Applicat.area   AM
       Logical path    ZAM_ASSET
    But when we run the WRITE though SARA , in the job log we get the following
    Logical file name or logical path name incorrectly defined
    When generating a file name for an archive file that is to be created, the system determined that the logical file name FIAA_ARCHIVE_DATA_FILE or the logical path name ARCHIVE_GLOBAL_PATH  was defined incorrectly.
    But we have maintained a Logical name  ZAMASSET , so we are unable to change the location of archived file and as well as the format.
    So is there any setting we need to maintain apart from the logical file name and logical file path.
    Suggestions are highly appreciated.
    Thanks in anticipation

    hi,
    follow this steps :
    - transaction SARA
    - enter authorization objects, eg SD_VBAK
    - hit button CUSTOMIZING
    - Archiving Object-Specific Customizing: execute Technical Setting
    - field Logical File Name enter or select ARCHIVE_DATA_FILE
    - leave CONTENT REPOSITORY as blank if you are not using 3rd party for storing (eg. IBM Tivoli)
    - back to customizing
    - from Basis Customizing, execute : Cross-Client File Names/Paths
    - on Logical FIle Path Definition, highlight (select) ARCHIVE_GLOBAL_PATH on the right pane
    - double click on the Assignment of Physical Paths to Logical Path on the left pane
    - double click on OS used, eg. UNIX, define Physical Path where archive file (on WRITE process) will be stored
    - save changes made
    - double click Logical File Definition, Cross Client on the left pane
    - double click ARCHIVE_DATA_FILE on the right pane
    - make sure that logical path is already set to ARCHIVE_GLOBAL_PATH
    - save changes made
    this setting also can be done using transaction FILE
    we have experienced on this case using SAP standard archiving (SARA, SARI) and everything is fine with this setting above.
    hope it help you.
