Global counter Variable

Hi All,
I have a requirement where i hav to push 'n' no of files from n different senders(1 file each sender and each is a different scenario) to a same receiver. so, i have to name all the files at the receiving end with some counter. and that counter should be accessed in all the scenarios during mapping. how can i acheive this?
any help wud b appreciated.
Thnx in Advance
Anil

Hi Anil,
For perfroming the RFC lookup from a Table so that you can use the counter value dynamically if you store it in a table, you can refer to this blog,
/people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/12/21/use-this-crazy-piece-for-any-rfc-mapping-lookups
The dynamic filename generation concept is as follows.
In your filename field. just give a variable with % symbols. (eg: %file% ).
Now, under the option Variable Name Substitution, you can give how the value has to be created.
It can be your interface name, sender service name, etc or it can be some value dynamically from your payload.
For the former, your give
message:interface_name ,etc
and for the payload part you give,
Payload: "your element root which u wanna acecss"
Just check this link out,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bc/bb79d6061007419a081e58cbeaaf28/content.htm
And read the contents under variable substitution and it will help you understand the concepts better.
If you have any clarifications, do get back,

Global Counter Variable - Graphical Mapping

Hi there.
Can anybody help with implementing a global counter variable in the graphical mapping please.
I am trying to populate the "SEGMENT" field of an IDoc with the correct sequence, i.e. add 1 for each new segment. The IDoc has several segments, most of which are embedded. I have tried using the "counter" function but this seems to reset back to one for each instance of it being called.
I would appreciate any pointers.
Thank you.
Mick.

Hi see this for implementation
defining Global Variables
ArrayList arrVI;
int counter =0;
Initialization Section
arrVI= new ArrayList();
assignment
arrVI.add(sVI[iLoopCounter]);
counter++;

fetch Values
for (int i =0;i<counter;i++)
result.addValue(arrVI.get(i)+"");

Assigning a specific value to the sapscript counter variable

Hi all,
I am trying to use the sapscript counter variable in my sapscript but encounter the following warning.
My code looks like the following:
/: DEFINE &SAPSCRIPT-COUNTER_0& = 0
The new counter value is &SAPSCRIPT-COUNTER_0(+)&
The warning i get when i do the syntax check is:
Ambiguous symbol &SAPSCRIPT-COUNTER_0&
What is wrong with my syntax?
Appreciate any help i can get.

Hi,
If i am not wrong you are trying to reinitializing that standard variable. if that is the case one thing, in script we cannot assign values to variable other than at initializing time but here you don't have chance to initialize that variable because that is standard one. More over modifications to standard variable will give some warnings.
So try to use other than standard one as per your requirement.
Hope this will help you.

Aswini.

BPM Counter Variable

FILE1---> XI --> IDOC
I have a BPM to receive the File. Do the Transformation and then send to R/3 as requested. This scenario is working fine for me. The only problem I have is, I need to send a mail at the end of the process, saying that how many IDOCs were sent to R/3.
I have introduced a Counter Variable(SimpleType,Integer) and counting each time an IDOC is created.
But when I add a new step to send the Counter Variable, I dont even see that variable in the Message variable of the SEnd Step!!!
What am I doing wrong?

Hi Mohan,
you cannot send variables - only messages
(there's no way to map variable to a message in BPM)
how can you do your scenario?
you can do 1:2 mapping
you can map your file to 2 kinds of messages:
- idoc
- message with one field(conuter)
then map file to those 2 messages and counter has to contain the number of idocs
then you'll be able to use it in send step:)
BTW
if you're not using combined IDOC have a look at my weblog:

Dealing with a turn based application with using a global static variable

Hi there. I read some articles about JavaFX concurrency,so as a newbie i have to practice on it. Now i'm trying to implement a turn based application that can be played among 3-6 players. Moreover, i use a scene imported from a .fxml file and i have to update it correctly depends on some calculations of each thread (in other word players ). My main issue is, i don't wanna use a while loop which checks the state of game like;
while( GameState != State.GAME_OVER ){
 currentPlayer = GameBoard.getNextPlayer();
 // do some actions,calculations etc.
So, i want to use worker threads instead of this while loop. I guess using Service class for iterating and assigning the next player will be suitable instead of using the while loop and Tasks for doing each player's calculation,or waiting for some responses from Human players on UI based,however, i'm struggling with two problems.
There should a global static variable ( like GameState which is an Enumarator ) determines the state of the game,so it should be updated and should be checked by each turn. Is there any way to do this ?
How can i get rid off this while loop ?
I will appreciate for every answer. Thanks anyway.

It shouldn't make too much difference. The basic idea is that you have a model class representing your game state (the Game class in jsmith's example). When a player makes a move, you update the state of the game. Since this will result in changes to the UI, this update should be performed on the FX Application Thread.
If the player making the move is a human player, the move will likely be made by a user action (button press or mouse click, etc); this will be handled on the FX Application thread anyway.
When the state of the game changes so it is the turn of an "artificial" player to make a move, have the object representing the artificial player calculate its next move, and then update the game state. Since this is a response to the game state changing (it's now the turn of the artificial player), this will also be on the FX Application Thread.
The only (slight) complexity comes if the calculation of the move for the artificial player takes a long time. You don't want to perform this long running calculation on the FX Application Thread. The cleanest way to manage this is to launch a Task which calculates the desired move, and then updates the game state when the move is ready. So, something like this:
GameState game = ... ;
// UI is bound to the game state.
ExecutorService executorService = ... ;
final Player currentPlayer = game.getCurrentPlayer() ;
final Task<Move> calculateMoveTask = new Task<Move>() {
 @Override
 public Move call() {
 Move move = // compute next move...
 return move ;
calculateMoveTask.setOnSucceeded(new EventHandler<WorkerStateEvent>() {
 @Override
 public void handle(WorkerStateEvent event) {
 gameState.makeMove(currentPlayer, calculateMoveTask.getValue());
executorService.submit(calculateMoveTask);
If you're doing more threading than that, you're probably doing it wrong... . There should also be no need for anything to be held as a "global" static variable (the idea above is the only structural modification you need to the example posted by jsmith).

Global Constants / Variable in OSB

I want to define global Constants / Variable in OSB and I want to access them in XSLT when I am tranforming the requests...
Any idea how can I do that?
I want to use these variables and constants for server name and ports (in different environment) and some other stuff.

We have done a similar implementation for the same scenario. We have created a Xquery where we put in the configuration information as an XML and then in the pipeline stages we use the Assign the Xquery to a a temporary variable and then use the values of the xml using relative xpath expressions.
This way any time we need to make any changes to the confguration we know once place we can change and it gets reflected in the complete code base.
Below is how we have done it:
- create a Xquery with xml configurations (say commonconfig.xq)
- then using the Assign action get the output of this xquery into a temp var (say commonConfig)
- then use the configurable values using the relative xpath in the Assign action (say Assign $commonConfig/param1/text() to param1Value
Let me know if you need further information.
Thanks,
Patrick

Need to keep track of URL and a count variable

Can anyone suggest the best way to keep track of a URL and a count variable associated with each URL. I have started using 2 List objects. When I add a URL I also add a 1 in the count List Object. I am using List Objects because I must be able to sort them and search through them.
Can anyone verify that I am going about this the correct way?
Thanks

I would probably use a TreeMap that referenced the counter.

Comma problem with global string variable

Hi,
I'm fiighting with comma problem for global string variable. I've on page string for example "7nndqrr52vzyb,0" and by dynamic column link I'm assigning this string to global variable. Then I'm trying to display value of that global variable on another page but I see only string till comma, nothings more. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong because when I'm trying to assign that value normally by computation process as a constant value is fine and see on another page correct string. I'll be really glad for help.
Thanks
Cheers,
Mariusz

When it tries to display the string, it sees the comma and wants to believe the string is terminated. You could escape the , in the string or replace it with a different character..

Global Application variable

How do I set a global application variable in a Swing application?
Namely
MDI display opens a new window
new window sets a variable
close the new window and return to the MDI window
MDI window needs to use the variable.
Note: the new window is is its own class object.

What are you talking about?
Static variables are "global".
In some class (it does not really matter which) define
a static variable. O.K. now you have a "global"
variable.
Some people may say that this is "bad" programming
practice, but it is what you asked for.public static variables of public classes are 'global' in the sense you can refer to them if anywhere in an application. Public classes are also 'global' in this sense.
However, we don't call them global variables, they are class variables. A global variable is generally defined to be one that is associated with the running application. It has no context other than that. It can be used anywhere at any time without any qualifications. In other words, the are terrible.
I had to maintain an application that had 50 or so global variables. Some of these variables represented the exact same piece of information so it was cruicial during modifications to make sure that they were kept in sync. Don't use this type of design.

Resetting a counter variable

I am trying to use counter variable "count". The default for "count" is 0 when the program is opened up. I initialize ssd and sumclick to be 0. However once it goes through the formula node, the value for "count" changes to 1 and then the decision loop within the formula node that checks if "count>0" is used.
My problem is, if I stop the program and then rerun the program without closing and reopenign the program, the value for count continues to be 1, and so my intialization for ssd and sumclick dont happen. Whenever I hit the run button I want count to be 0. I dont want count to remember the 1 from the previous run. How can I do this?
The VI is below.

Hi Charles,
Thanks for answering my question. The pciture I posted is part of a large program. After I posted the question I reworked on the block diagram to create a base level example to try and figure out what was going wrong. Here is the base level example. I tried to get rid of the formula node in this. i just have a while loop and all LV operations.
I am trying to generate a random number, take the deviation^2 of the random number from 1 and then keep adding that cumulatively to make SSD. I want my SSD to begin with 0, everytime I stop and re-run the program. VI Attached. Please look at it and tell me. Thanks for the help in advance.

Page Counter Variable & Captivate 4

Hello - I can't get a simple page counter variable to work that I snagged from Captain Captivate. When I click to preview, the project will not show. I’ve tried F4 and F12, it will not preview the project. When I click F3, it shows the variable text. I’ve downloaded his sample file, this will not preview either. When I delete the variable the previews work. Any ideas on how to solve this problem or is there another option for creating a simple page counter?
Thanks!!

Hello,
You are talking about a slide number? There is a system variable cpInfoCurrentSlide that gives you that number. To have it on all the slides:
insert a Text Caption on the first slide, in which you insert this system variable, you can add other text as well
change the timing of this Text caption to 'for rest of project'
preview: you will have the slide number on each slide.
If you want to know more about variables, I posted something for starters. The link is in this blog post:

Corrupt Global User Variable?

We're running ICM 7.5 and over the weekend, calls stopped routing to one skill. AT&T, our first line, worked with Cisco and after research/testing, came back with an answer that the global user variable was corrupt. Has anyone experienced this? It seems odd that out of the blue this becomes corrupt, especially over a weekend when call volume is low.
My team, along with Network and AT&T did a process of elimination, removing translation route & global user to validate call routing and adding each piece back. When the variable was added, call routing failed to backup routing.
Thanks,
Jill M Gorrie

Hi,
User variables are meant to be used in web forms and web forms only. You can certainly pass their values to business rules when you used them in POV or page section of the form during save. All you need to do is to create another business rule (local or global) variable in business rule on the corresponding dimension and use it in your business rule. If you enable running the business rule on save and using the form values for variables options in form properties, business rules would replace the values of business rule variables with the values that are set in user variables.
