Handling special characters and in result event?

My backend DB contains signs like < and >. They are not in &lt and &gt forms.
The e4x can not handle them so the following code fails:
private function httpResult(event:ResultEvent):void {
var result:Object = event.result;
this.data = event.result.data;
I got Error #1090. Is there a way to use ResultEvent w/o using e4x?

Set a different resultFormat on your HttpService?

Error while handling special characters ( and &) in Sender File adapter

Dear All,
Scenario: Third Party System --> (File adapter) SAP PI 7.1 (SP05) --> (Proxy) ECC
We are receiving CSV file and no mapping is required in PI as all the processing is being done by third party tool. But we are receiving special characters like ',",>,< and & in the csv file.
When we are using File Type as TEXT and File Encoding as ISO-8859-1 than we are getting error. We changed File Type to BINARY and than we are able to handle ',",> but having issue in handling < and &.
Any idea how we can handle it.
Please note trhere is no Mapping in SAP PI so cannot uise Java mapping.
Thanks a lot
Chanakya

Hey,
You can add ABAP Script in Receiver Proxy for eliminating or replacing with NULL or empty. Since you dont have mapping for formatting these kind of junks you can follow the above approach.
Else, you can remove the junks at OS level while running a small script and make it available to PI.
Or else, you need to create mapping for sender and recevier structure though it is same, then you add a very simple UDF for fine tune.
Use this UDF
Here a is the input value.
String b = "";
b = a.replaceAll(",", "0");
b = a.replaceAll("@", "0");
Like all the special characters you can take and replace with zero.
return b;
Thanx

Time-dependent Vendor Master & Handling Special Characters

Hi,
I need to extract time-dependent Vendor Master.
1. The data source for 0VENDOR does not have fields to hold the valid date range.
2. Does the Master data in R/3 for Vendors will hold the valid date range?
3. The text for 0VENDOR provides time-dependent, but how to map the valid from and valid to fields?
Handling Special Characters:
We are trying to extract data from Legacy system via DB Connect. The item text field consists of special characters. Of course in BW customization we can specify all the special characters to consider. But the special character we observed is 'square' symbol i.e. 'new line character' in Oracle. We are updating this to an ODS object. When looked at error log, observed that green light for the number of records transferred and updated, but finally when it load into ODS object and activates popping up the error message saying 'could not recognize special character'.
Please help me getting the 2 issues resolved.
Thanks in advance.

LOOP AT DATA_PACKAGE WHERE NOT /BIC/ZI_DESC IS INITIAL .
 DO.
 IF DATA_PACKAGE-/BIC/ZI_DESC CN ALLOWED_CHAR.
 REPLACE SECTION OFFSET SY-FDPOS LENGTH LEN OF
 DATA_PACKAGE-/BIC/ZI_DESC WITH C_CHAR.
 FLAG = SPACE.
 ELSE.
 FLAG = 'X'.
 ENDIF.
 IF FLAG = 'X'.
 EXIT.
 ENDIF.
 ENDDO.
 MODIFY DATA_PACKAGE.
ENDLOOP.
if abort is not equal zero, the update process will be canceled

How to Handle Special Characters in PI7.1

Hi Team,
I need to handle some special characters like <,>,& etc.. from WS Adapter to CRM in PI 7.1.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/9420 [original link is broken]
By using the above blog i had implemented the Java Code as
public void execute(InputStream in, OutputStream out){
try{
int read_data;
while((read_data = in.read()) != -1){
if (read_data == '&'){
out.write("&".getBytes());
}else if (read_data == '>'){
out.write(">".getBytes());
}else if (read_data == '<'){
out.write("<".getBytes());
}else if (read_data == '/'){
out.write("&frasl;".getBytes());
}else if (read_data == '\''){
out.write("'".getBytes());
else { out.write(read_data);
out.flush();
} catch (Exception e){}
I had added this class file in Operational Mapping.
It is working if we have only one IF condition for & in while
Any suggestion
Thanks
Sriram

Hi Ramesh,
Thanks for your inputs, I have tried your code but it is not working. The error message stays the same.
Dear Stephane,
To describe the error more, the requirement is the payload coming from source through WS Adapter consists of the special characters <, > , & which are basic sematics of XML syntax. I need PI to process this payload with special characters and successfully transfer it to target CRM system. I have created the Java class with code (ref: Blog 9420) as stated earlier and added this class to my existing Operation Mapping. I am expecting the java mapping to replace the special characters in payload like < with ">" . So as the case with the other characters >,&,'
After activaton of my operation mapping, I triggered the test message with Soap UI client and I could able to get a successful mapping only When I put the logic for &ampersand symbol only. However when I am trying to add the logic for > or < or ' the mapping is failing . I am using UTF-8 encoding across the source and PI enviroments.

Handling special characters in XML

Hi,
I am using Oracle 10g 'XMLType' datatype to store XML files. Before storing I parse the XML document using Java Xerces Parser. If it parses successfuly, then I perform some business rule execution based on XML file which was parsed. So till this stage there is no problems. But when XML file contains some special characters like copy-paste of some description from MS-Word document into XML tags, then Xerces parser will parse such characters with out any exceptions, but while inserting XML document, Oracle database just throws exception saying unable to handle special characters.. So how to avoid such exceptions or silent such exceptions with any specific settings respect to XMLType datatype in 10g DB.
Please advice!
Arvind Patil - IN

Monica--
In XI 2.0, we've noticed a number of issues processing special characters, primarily caused by the version of JCO that we're running. It sounds like SAP has spent some time in the past few months focusing on these errors, so make sure you're on the most recent patchlevels of all your middleware components, including any of the middleware libraries that BC uses. In XI, we had to update the 3 files that make up the RFC library and JCO library. SDM couldn't update the libraries for us -- we had to manually move the files to the right place.
Escaped XML characters like "&" """ """ were fixed as of JCO 2.0.10 (the current patchlevel on AIX/UNIX), the special character "'" is fixed in the next release, JCO 2.0.11, due out in a few weeks (hotfixes are available). I don't know the equivalent versions on other platforms. By default, XI 2.0 appears to have shipped with JCO 2.0.5. I would expect many XI 3.0 users to also be affected.
This may or may not apply to BC, because I don't know what BC uses to talk to SAP under the covers.

Handle special characters in the attribute name

Hi,
I am generating different view element in WD application dynamically. How to handle special characters other than '-/ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ_0123456789' for the attribute name dynamically?
Thank you, in advance.
Trupti

Going with the obvious response - don't use them?
if you're using dynamic code, there is no reason (other than debug support) to give your created elements any meaningful name.
Just generate a GUID for each new element and use that.
If you need to be able to later search for and update the element a simple lookup table of GUID to reference string should work reasonably well.
Cheers,
Chris

To Handle Special Characters(Guideu0099 ) in MATMAS IDOC fields

Need to handle special characters like Guide, as an attached superscript in MATMAS02/05 IDOC field . The field name is TDLINE in E1MTXLM segment.

Special Characters and spaces in Tablenames and Column Names are allowed ?

Hi
I have created two tables in Oracle10g
as follows
SQL> create table test(columna number,columnb varchar2(20),primary key(columna));
Table created.
SQL> insert into test values(1,'test');
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
COMMIT är utfört.
SQL> create table "test quote"("#" number,abc number,primary key("#"));
Table created.
SQL> insert into "test quote" values(1,2);
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
COMMIT är utfört.
SQL> select * from "test quote";
# ABC
1 2
SQL> select * from test;
COLUMNA COLUMNB
1 test
Now I want to cache the tables and their data into TimesTen
The cache group for table test which is not having any spaces and special characters in table name and column names is created perfectly.
But when I create the cache group for table "test quote" which is having special characters and spaces it gives error :
Command>create readonly cache group w2 from testuser.test(columna number,columnb varchar2(20),primary key(columna));
Command>select * from test;
<1,test>
1 row found.
Command>create readonly cache group w3 from testuser."test quote"("#" number,abc number,primary key("#"));
5140: Could not find TESTUSER.TEST QUOTE in Oracle. May not have privileges.
Command Failed.
Now there is contradiction that why cache group for table test is created successfully and why it is not being created for table "test quote".
What I think is if special characters and spaces in column names and table names are possible in Oracle then it sould be possible in TimesTen.
Any possible solution.
Looking forward for your reply.
Please help I am stuck badly.

Special Characters and Structures

For MathScript Nodes, I am trying to locate some Help for special characters and structures such as the proper ways of defining arrays, structures etc. and how and when to use ( ), { }, [ ], colons, commas, semicolons, etc. Can someone point me to this information? Thanks Jeff

Hi Jeff,
Yes, 2D array is acceptable in MathScript.
I will try to give detail about your question. If I miss anything, please let me know.
Define array - You should use [ ] to define and initialize an array. For example, A = [1 2 3; 4 5 6; 7 8 9] defines A to be a 3-by-3 matrix. Comma or space character separates element by element in one row. And, semicolon character separates row by row.
[ ] - Another situation to use [ ] is to define a function. You should use [ ] to specify output, such as function [a, b] = foo(g, h).
( ) - Parenthesis is widely used in MathScript. 1) In a formula, parenthesis gives high priority to calculations within it, such as a*(b+c); 2) It is used in function call, such as sin(a); 3) It is used to specify input when you define a function.
{ } - MathScript can not accept cell array by now. Therefore, { } is not used.
' ' - Single quotation is used to define a string variable, such as b = 'MathScript'.
; - Semicolon is used to separates row in matrix or end a command, such as c = sin(1);. If you end a command with semicolon, it suppress the display out in MathScript Window. This does not work in MathScript Node.
... - It is used to separate a long formula into two lines, such as
d = 1*...

Handle special characters in xml

Hi,
Our end users tend to copy the description text from Word documents to pdf form and submits it.
If that text contains any special characters, its getting carried to the extracted xml. In the next step, when I try to assign a task to user with template and this xml, Managers cannot able to open the form and showing the error. When I assign the xml without special characters, its running fine.
Please assist on how to handle this?
My expectation is that user should be prompted in the form when he pastes any special characters or they should be auto-corrected to null values. if that is not possible, atleast we should able to filter the xml and eliminate special characters before the form go to next stage.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Krishna

In first instance, I would have followed this way:
http://www.dvteclipse.com/documentation/svlinter/How_to_use_special_characters_in_XML.3F.h tml
so, I would have parsed the submitted text in a Validate event and changed any special chars to UTF-8 numeric reference.
However, I found this:
http://blog.mark-mclaren.info/2007/02/invalid-xml-characters-when-valid-utf8_5873.html
which seems to state that not all UTF-8 characters are possible in XML.
In fact, those allowed are listed here:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006#NT-Char
so, I would still use a Validate event script but based on the XML specs' Character Range. Exactly as Mark McLaren did in Java.
This will permit to keep those special chars that are allowed. Your Managers will thank you.
Hope it helps.

How to handle special characters in NWDI

Dear All
I am trying to update the Description from JSP form. Through JCO we are calling the RFC of ABAP. We are passing these description from Java to RFC of ABAP and this RFC update the text in Database.
We have noticed that if there is some special character in description like as : or , complete description is not getting updated in to the SAP database.
Can anyone help me how to handle these special characters in Java. There may be N number of special characters. We want to generalize it. We want to replace these characters by s and z respectively.
For example : We want to update this description.

Hi Bhavishya,
Apparently your SAP database isn't configured to support Unicode. That would be the first solution to your problem, but I can imagine it's a bit drastic to convert your DB.
A second solution would be to encode the input description to ASCII before storing it in the database. When reading from the database, decode again to Unicode. This way, no information is lost. A suitable encoding would be Base64. e.g.
String description = "unday ebra";
String descriptionBase64 = new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder().encode(
description.getBytes("UTF-8")); // ""
// store descriptionBase64 in the DB
// later, when reading descriptionBase64 from the DB
String description2 = new String(
new sun.misc.BASE64Decoder().decodeBuffer(descriptionBase64), "UTF-8");
Instead of using Sun's implementation, a better alternative is to use the open source implementation
org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64 from Commons Codec .
The 3rd approach is indeed to normalize the description by replacing all special characters with their ASCII equivalent. A rather easy solution is as follows:
String description = "unday ebra";
String descriptionNormalized = sun.text.Normalizer.normalize(
description, sun.text.Normalizer.DECOMP, 0).replaceAll(
"[^p{ASCII}]", "");
sun.text.Normalizer decomposes the string, e.g. "éàî" becomes "e´a`i^", after which non-ASCII characters are being removed using a regular expression.Again, note that it's usually a bad idea to use sun.* packages, see note about sun.* packages. The above code only works with J2SE 1.4 and J2SE 5.0, but it breaks in J2SE 6.0 (where
java.text.Normalizer became part of the public API ;-). A good open source implementation can be found here: ICU4J (com.ibm.icu.text.Normalizer).
Kind regards,

Handling Special characters in the data set

Hi All,
I am facing an issue in hadling special characters while writing data to a flat file.
The data fetched in toad query is *44CAÑADO* (with some specail character over N), but when this same data is written in textpad using UTL_FILE.put_line, the data written is converted to *44CAÃ‘ADO*.
Can anyone please help me how to handle these special charatcers so that the same data is written in text file as well.

Problem with special characters and search

In our SP environment (Build Version 15.0.4420.1017) we have the following problem:
We upload a Word document containing the name Müller in its Authors field.
After upload the author name gets displayed normally in the library. We can check that by adding a new column "_Author" in the library.
When searching for the document, the search results display the author Müller as M�ller. This issue is probably due to the Search Indexer.
Has this been fixed in any of the SharePoint Updates, or is a fix planned in the near future?
I just noticed the following post, but the answer is not really convincing. This is clearly a bug.
Search and special
characters
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards
John

Hi John,
According to your description, my understanding is that the Author showed incorrect character in SharePoint 2013 search result page.
I tested the same scenario per your post in my environment, and the Müller showed correctly in SharePoint search result page.
I recommend to reset the index in Search Service Application and run a full crawl to see if the issue still occurs.
Best regards.
Thanks

ENS for Calendar Server strange issue when handling special characters

The problem is basically that the ENS message isn't fully flushed to the stream when the generated event (an appointment creation for example) has special characters such as "ñ", "á","é". Maybe are encoded in more than one byte but it flushes the buffer using characters * character_size and character_size is not always 1.
If I make a second appointment the buffer is flushed and I get the rest of the first notification and the new one.
Perhaps it is a configuration case and I should configure ENS to support more languages.
Could you help me?
Thank you,
Best regards.

Thank you Shane.
I've run the sample and it works fine.
Perhaps it's not a bug but it's very strange the behaviour ens has with events with special characters. This is what I do step by step:
1. I subscribe for all events and all the users
2. I create and appointment with special characters
3. I receive the event notification
GAP/1.0 1b 3 1915 enp:///ics/caleventcreate?calid=[email protected]&uid=000000000000000000000000000000000b2c934cc04e0000140000001f130000&rid=0|ntfy|00000000
The number 1915 should be the message length so I try to read 1915 bytes. However I can only read 1903 bytes. In this 1903 I have the full xml with the vcalendar.
4. I create a second appointment
5. The message I received is something like "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0" which is 1915-1903
6. I have to discard this message because it's invalid
7. I receive the event notification
I can fix my custom client and discard this "\0\0\0..." messages but It's a strange behaviour. Perhaps the protocol is as is but I thought it was a bug.
Thank you Shane.
