How to access custom properties on JavaBean DC attributes

I created a DC from a Java class and defined some custom properties on one of its attributes. How can I access these custom properties through EL? I don't see the custom properties in the Expression Builder.

Hey Frank
Sorry for the sparse description. By custom properties I mean the ones you can add through the "Custom Properties" tab in the same editor that also lets you edit the UI Hints. This is the editor that opens when you try to edit an accessor on a data control from the DataControls.dcx viewer. In my case, I have a TestDC data control that exposes an "employees" collection of type Employee. Employee has the attributes "startDate", "name", and "age" which are of type java.util.Date, java.lang.String, and java.lang.Integer, respectively. In the DataControls editor, I select the "employees" accessor and click on the pencil icon. This opens the editor for the Employee.xml file (root element is PDefViewObject, always appears in a persdef package). From the Overview, click on Attributes, and you'll see the Custom Properties tab below the list of attributes. I added some properties here for one of the attributes but I don't know how these are supposed to be accessed through EL.
Here are two screenshots in case my written description sounds confusing.

How to access custom properties in EJB

Hello,
I want to supply some properties (20-30) for my EJB application.
In a non enterprise application I would put these properties into a xml file, read it at startup time by a singleton.
This singleton holds the read information in static variables and provides them to all other classes.
I read that with EJB static variables (and so the singleton) are forbidden.
But what is the best way to provide the properties.
Should they be defined in an own xml file or better put into an existing one (and which should this be)?
And if this is done, how can I access these properties?
I searched at goolge and in several forums, but I don't got a suitable answer.
I hope you can help me.
Thanks

The Java EE spec defines simple name/value pairs for Strings and primitive values called env entries.
You define them in ejb-jar.xml in the same place as ejb-refs and resource-refs. You can then look
them up or inject them into your code. Here's an example :
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>config1</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value>foo</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>
In the code :
@Resource(name="config1)
private String c1;
or
String c1 = (String) new InitialContext().lookup("java:comp/env/config1");
or
@Resource
private SessionContext sessionCtx;
String c1 = (String) sessionCtx.lookup("config1");

How to access custom property for attribute and control in .vm file?

Hi,
I have created custom properties in OPM for attribute and apply also that properties to attribute.
But if how to access that value in .vm file?
I accessed using
$attribute.getProperty("ScreenProp", "default value")
but it's not working but same is worked for screen custom property

$control.getProperties().get("PropertyName") works for custom properties on a control
If you output $control and $control.getProperties() to the html you can lookup the API for the used classes.
I can't give an example of the html because it's stripped in this forum

How to set Custom Properties in PDF

Hi,
We are using BIP embedded in EBS R12.
For post-processing of PDF files, we need to embed information in PDF files which can be read by a script.
There is Customer Properties section in every PDF file (File > Properties > Custom (tab)) where information may be stored in Name-Value pair where in Name will be a predefined information while value should coming from XML data file.
I could not find any help/guide which demonstrates how to insert custome properties in PDF file generated from RTF template in EBS. Is this capability available in BIP?
Please share your thoughts on this.
br.

You may be able to make changes to the web.xml for Infoview to handle that.
For infoview questions you will need to create a forum post in the [Enterprise Admin forum|BI Platform;

How to access Custom controller

Hi all,
How can i access custom controller objects in my other controllers.Can i call custom controller objects from component controller .

Hi,
I hope you mean the Custom Controller the same way we understand as defined here
[http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/Introductiontocontrollers|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/Introductiontocontrollers]
To access custom controller from the component controller you have to do the following.
1. Component controller->properties->use insert button to select the custom controller.
2. Use the code generator (CTRL+F7) -second tab(general)->method call in used controller->select your custom controller->method.
This will generate code like this
DATA lo_zzsbn_cust_cc1 TYPE REF TO ig_zzsbn_cust_cc1 .
lo_zzsbn_cust_cc1 = wd_this->get_zzsbn_cust_cc1_ctr( ).
lo_zzsbn_cust_cc1->test(

HOw to access ApplicationResource.properties file using getSystemResource

I am using struts. I need to access ApplicationResource.properties file, which I define my connection String there. All my methods are static method, so I cannot use getResourceAsStream() method from ClassLoader class, so i have to use getSystemResourceAsStream() method. However, I always get class not found error. Inputstream is always null.
my ApplicationResource.properties file is stored in projectname/classes, and all my other classes store in projectname/classes/com/testname/. Can anybody tell me how to make it work? Thank you in advance.
Here is my code:
private static String getConnectionURL() throws FileNotFoundException,IOException,ClassNotFoundException
Properties properties = new Properties();
InputStream fromFile = ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream("ApplicationResources.properties");
if (fromFile !=null)
properties.load(fromFile);
String connectionURL = properties.getProperty("progressiveURL");
return connectionURL;
}

Try either:
ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream("/ApplicationResources.properties");
or
YourClass.class.getResourceAsStream("/ApplicationResources.properties");
in either case, you need to add the "/" prefix.

How to Access Custom Event using AS3?

Hi All,
Maybe it's that its Monday morning and my brain is still foggy, but I can't seem to figure out how to set custom events using AS3.
I have a custom GridRow itemRenderer, and have declared the event using the appropriate metatags.
Then I create the GR item dynamically using AS3 instantiation, but the event is not available for selection in the intellisense drop-down.
Let's take the following as an example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Grid
 xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
 xmlns:renderers="com.brassworks.renderers.*"
 creationComplete="componentInit();"
>
 <mx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 private function componentInit():void
 newRow :MyRow = new MyRow();
 //newRow.myEvent is not an available option to set
 ]]>
 </mx:Script>
</mx:Grid>
Then the itemRenderer:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GridRow
 xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
 xmlns:classes="com.brassworks.components.classes.*"
 creationComplete="componentInit();"
>
 <mx:Metadata>
 [Event(name="myEvent", type="flash.events.Event")]
 </mx:Metadata>
 <mx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 private function itemChanged(event:Event):void
 Alert.show("test");
 this.dispatchEvent(new Event("myEvent"));
 ]]>
 </mx:Script>
 <mx:GridItem>
 <mx:TextInput
 change="itemChanged"
 />
 </mx:GridItem>
</GridRow>
How do I go about setting the handler method for custom events on instantiated items? Do I need to do this via the AddEventListener() method? Does this mean that events aren't exposed in ActionScript like they are in MXML? (In MXML all I have to do is <MyRow myEvent="handler(event)" />.)
Thanks!
-Mike

Yes, I you need to do this via the addEventListener() method.
myRow.addEventListener( "myEvent", myHandler );
I hope that helps.

How to access custom JAVA webdynpro application from an iPad?

Hi,
We are trying to access custom JAVA webdynpro application from an iPad, but nothing is opening up from the iPad browser.
What can be the possible reasons for this? Any kind of SICF enablement or opening up of ports in the network?
Any inputs are welcome!!
TIA,

Hi,
it is possible to show Java Web Dynpro applications on a mobile device in general, but the controls and the ui should be optimized for the mobile device.
Safari devices are not officially supported so far for Mobile Web Dynpro.
Supported are Windows Mobile devices and Blackberry devices. I also got some good results with Symbian devices.
You can find more inforamtion on Mobile Always Connected at:

How to access custom ume user attributes via VC?

Hi guys,
I configured a custom user attribute within the ume configuration:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/de/44/0316d50bbe025ce10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm">Adding Custom Attributes to the User Profile</a>
Now, how can I access this attribute within my VC model (user data)?
Thanks for your ideas
Benny

Hi,
Regarding adding properties to user data control, i have the following information. But i am not sure, whether it will be helpful to you.
You can add a personalise property/User mapping property into a user data control.
Drag a User data component, go to configure and click the + sign at the bottom of User parameters.
You can add any personalised properties to the user data (with valid data types and allowed values). Then can use the property in any formula.
When iView is opened in portal, the personalise property of that particular iView is used to change the property value
Hope it helps.

[CS3 JS] How To Access Custom Metadata?

I have InCopy documents that contain custom XMP metadata in two namespaces, Dublin Core and PRISM, e.g.: ... <rdf:Description rdf:about=""> <dc:format xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">application/x-incopy</dc:format> <dc:title>Chickens and You</dc:title> </rdf:Description> <rdf:Description rdf:about=""> <prism:publicationName xmlns:prism="http://prismstandard.org/namespaces/basic/1.2/" >Poultry Daily</prism:publicationName> </rdf:Description> ... In my JavaScript, I can access the Dublin core values but cannot access the PRISM values and I'm not sure why not. For example, I have this: doc = app.activeDocument; metadata = doc.metadataPreferences; namespaces["dc"] = "http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"; namespaces["prism"] = "http://prismstandard.org/namespaces/basic/1.2/"; $.writeln("dc:title=" + metadata.getProperty(namespaces["dc"], "title/*[1]")) // Returns expected result "Chickens and You" $.writeln("prism:publicationName=" + metadata.getProperty(namespaces["prism"], "publicationName/*[1]")) // Returns unexpected empty result, should be "Poultry Daily". If I do metadata.save() I see the PRISM metadata in the saved result: <rdf:Description rdf:about="" xmlns:prism="http://prismstandard.org/namespaces/basic/1.2/"> <prism:publicationName>Poultry Daily</prism:publicationName> </rdf:Description> So I'm sort of at a loss but I suspect that I don't really understand what the path value should be--I haven't been able to find any clear documentation on what the path is addressing or how its actually interpreted. What am I missing or doing wrong? Thanks, Eliot

> Dude, I started that thread :-)
Missed that. It's been a long week.
The problem is this line (probably).
metadata.getProperty(namespaces["prism"], "publicationName/*[1]")
You apparently copied the syntax from dc:title in the previous line. dc:title is
an 'Lang Alt' kind of property which is, effectively, an array. Your
prism:publicationName is a simple value property. I suspect that the "[1]"
syntax (and possible the "/*" before it) are what's causing problems.
I don't recall seeing docs for this either.

How to access custom labels in Table?

In IDML I have set up custom lables inside Table element. How can I access those labels?
Thx!

Hi Michael,
If you just want to retrieve the data, you could use the following code.
//Get the node which the table is bound to
IWDNode node = wdContext.nodeTable();
//iterate thru the elements
for(int i = 0 ; i<node.size();i++)
IWDNodeElement ne = node.getElementAt(i);
Object value = ne.getAttributeValue("<column name>");
//Here you have the data in the value variable
//and you can manipulate this now

What is that package? and how to do that?
Is there any other easy method to use global/application vars which can be used in all
JSP/JavaBeans/Java files?
Thanks in advance.

It might be easier to put that code somewhere else. JSP's are for presentation, not for accessing databases, business logic, etc.
