Hi Orlando,
convert content to Hex format then,
lw_document = cl_document_bcs=>create_document(
           i_type    = 'RAW / HTM'
           i_text    = lw_main_text
           i_subject = lw_subject ).
      w_document->add_attachment(
         i_attachment_type    = 'XLS'
         i_attachment_subject = lw_att_sub
         i_att_content_text   = p_int_soli[]
         i_att_content_hex    = p_int_solix[] ).
w_int_address = lw_smtp-low.
             w_camuser = cl_cam_address_bcs=>create_internet_address( w_int_address ).
             w_recipient = w_camuser.
thanks,

Help needed:Printing HTML file using javax.print

Hi
I am using the following code which i got form the forum for rpinting an HTML file.
The folllowing code is working fine, but the problem is the content of HTML file is not getting printed. I am geeting a blank page with no content. What is the change that is required in the code? ALso is there any simpler way to implement this. Help needed ASAP.

Ram,
I have had printing problems too a year and a half ago. I used all printing apis of java and I still find that it is something java lacks. Now basically you can try autosense. To check whether your printer is capable of printing the docflavor use this PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(flavor, aset); . If it lists the printer then he can print the document otherwise he can't. I guess that is why you get the error.

Saving excel file using HSSF api

I am using HSSF api to download an excel file. But the end users are not able to save the file. Some of them do not get the popup file download window so that they can choose to open or save. Is there a setting in the browser which shows up the window? The users may have different versions of excel on their pcs.
How to show the excel application menu 'file' so that users can save this file?
Any help would be appreciated.

Prakash,
          I have followed your weblog and set the content dispostion.
HttpServletResponse res = request.getServletResponse(true);
               try {
                    res.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
                    res.setHeader("Content-disposition", "inline; filename=report.xls");
                    wb.write(res.getOutputStream());
               } catch (Exception e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
When I test this on my pc, I get file download window and I can choose 'open' or'save'. I also have tested this on some of my collegues PCs successfully. But the some of the end users are not getting this window.
when the same is file is downloaded by running an asp page the enire MSExcel application with standard tool bar and menus(file edit etc..) is showing up.
Why is it not poosible to get the same result using HSSF api?

Help needed in splitting files using BPM

Hello experts,
I am working on an interface where i need to split files within BPM.
I know,i can achieve it in Message Mapping by mapping Recordset to Target structure and then using Interface Mapping within Transformation step.But i dont want to follow this.Is there an alternative way to achieve this within BPM.
I have an input file with multiple headers and i need to split for each header.My input file looks like this:
HXXXXXABCDVN01
MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
SXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
HXXXXXABCDVN02
MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
SXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
HXXXXXABCDVN03
MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
SXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Is there a way, where i can specify this condition within BPM , that split files for every H.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Swathi

Hi,
have your target structure with occurence as 0...unbounded in the mapping and map the header filed to the root node (repeating parent node) of the target structure....this will create as many target messages as the header fileds....if you want to send these messages separately then use a block in BPM with ForEach option....
Splitting and Dynamic configuration can be applied in the same mapping.
Regards,
Abhishek.

Help needed- Caller tone application using JTAPI and JMF

Hi to All,
I want to make a Caller Tone Application for Cisco IP phone.
For that application I am using JTAPI and JMF.
I am new to this two technologies.
Can somebody help me for how to accomplish this?
---Ashish

Hi Jerry,
You can run analog input and counter tasks concurrently. You can start them using software timing basically at the same time which may be fine for your needs and is the easiest to implement. You also can use a hardware start trigger to start the tasks if you prefer. It all depends on the level of synchronization you need.
You have not mentioned at what rate you will be acquiring data on your analog inputs. The M Series PCI-6225 has 80 analog inputs and may suit your needs. You will need to know what sampling rate you are trying to achieve. Any M Series device will definitely give you the best value.
Hope this helps!

Download local file using Servlet and JSP

Hello,
I will like to use a browser to download file on local system using serlvet and Jsp technology. Does anyone have any idea how to do it?
Any comment will be appreciate.
Thanks

Well you can just put the file in a folder that is accessible to the web server. Then have a link point to that file. That will cause the web browser to download the file.

To do that you need to get the response output stream and write yur file contents to that.
response.setContentType(mimeType); //Set the mime type for the response
ServletOutputStream sos = resp.getOutputStream();
sos.write(bytes from your file input stream);
sos.close();

FC/e is based upon the Quicktime-engine; so, on 'Export using QT', you'll get all codecs & settings.

due to sheer popularity, YouTube became a 'standard' - I'm happy with the convenience, YT and the 'embed'-code offers - excellent quality, automatic adjusted to the watchers connection&hardware.
my export settings are 720p, h264, 6MBit/sec - gives a - imho! - superb quality.
(example of a 'screen-test' from my latest project CLICK )
for creating so-called 'flash video'/.flv, you need 3rd party apps.
Sorenson Squeeze is more of an pro-tool, .. you need some background knowledge to get noticeable 'better' quality.
.. and the question is: are you willing to pay $.$$$ for that 0.x% more quality .. ? does your source offers such a 101% quality, which needs such affords?
if bandwidth is an issue, because you're hosting on your own servers, consider the free codec xh264, you can install as a free QT-plug-in.. with low or super-low bitrates, it offers a superior quality compared to h264 ...

Need help-problem importing excel files

I am about to begin work on an annual report that will involve importing charts and tables from an Excel file. I am able to drag and drop the pie charts and bar graphs into Indesign. When I try to do the same with the tables, they don't come across. When I import the excel file using the "place" command in Indesign , the files comes through as text only. I need the chart design and formatting. Any ideas?

If this is going to press then you absolutely should bring those charts into Illustrator. At the very least you want to make sure to convert the RGB black text to real black.
As for the tables, when you place the Excel file, make sure that show options is selected in the place dialog box. Then choose the proper formatting for the table. If you already formatted everything in Excel, choose Formatted Table. I think you'll be fairly pleased.

URGENT.........File Upload using Servlets and jsp

I am a new servlet programmer.......
iam using tomcat server......
can any one pls help in writing code for file upload using servlets and jsp without using multipart class or any other class like that....
Please URGENT..

Slow down! "Urgent" is from your perspective alone. I, myself, am not troubled or worried in the least.
hi ugniss
thanks for ur reply....sorry i was not
y i was not asked not to use multipart class or any
other class like that...is there any other
possibility to do file uploading from jsp to
servlet...
Just as an aside, a JSP is a Servlet. But even if I move beyond that, the question does not make sense. If you want a "JSP to upload to a Servlet", then simply do so in memory. You are still (likely) within the same scope of a given request. However, if instead you are referring to a JSP that is displayed on a browser, then really you are talking about HTML, which is what the browser will receive. And since you are now talking about a browser, your only real, viable option is a multi-part file upload. So, it is either server or it is browser. And either way, the question leads to very established options, as outlined above.
the main concept is.. in the browser the user selects
a particular file and clicks the button upload..after
clicking upload the jsp should sent the file to the
servlet in streams...there the servlet gets in and
saves in a server location........this is wat i hav
to do...
Okay. So, after reading my previous (redundant) paragraph, we have arrived at the crux of the issue. You have a JSP that will be output as HTML to a client (browser) which you want to upload content to your server (handled by a Servlet). So, you are now stuck again with multi-part. The requirement to not use multi-part is non-sensical. You can overcome it, say, if you write your own applet or standalone Swing client. However, if your users are invoking this functionality from a browser, you are limited by the options that W3C has provided you. Use multi-part.
is there aby possibilty to do this.....can any one
pls help....Take the advice to download and review Jakarta Commons FileUpload. Inform your management that their requirement makes no technical sense. Research on your own. There are dozens of examples (and tutorials) on file upload using multi-part. Embrace it. Live it. Love it.
