How to call an eCATT programmatically with import parameters

Hi there,
I am using function module ECATT_EXECUTE to call test scripts from within ABAP test code, like below. Unfortunately, I am not able to pass my actual import parameter values. It seems that the interface does not provide a way to pass import parameters to the eCATT.
Although posted in November, this is still an issue for me. Does anybody know an answer?
call function 'ECATT_EXECUTE'
    exporting
      to_execute              = lt_script
      display_log             = space
      i_supress_output        = 'X'
    importing
      executed                = lt_executed
      logid                   = ls_logid
      trace_prot              = lt_trace
    exceptions
      nothing_to_do           = 1
      too_many_scripts_called = 2
      others                  = 3.
Does anybody reading this have a solution?
Thanks and regards,
Rüdiger

Hello Rüdiger,
direct passover would be fine - well, I've come to get used to finding workarounds in SAP though. Maybe, the function module will support the missing parameters in some forthcoming release.
Btw I switched over to tables ECTC_VAR / ECTC_DATA and pass obj_type = 'ECTC' to ECATT_EXECUTE, since test configurations can directly be executed.
You don't happen to know what has to be done, if the call of ECATT_EXECUTE results in a dump? After correctly executing the test configuration. Looks like eCatt tries to put the resulting log to nowhere. Perhaps I have to initialize some kind of a log receiver first or set some option in the start profile? I passed DISPLAY_LOG = SPACE, and SUPPRESS_OUTPUT = 'X'.
Dump was:

How to call a concurrent program with some parameters in a stored procedure

Hi All,
I have made two procedures, xx_nidhi_proc1 and xx_nidhi_proc2.
xx_nidhi_proc1 takes four parameters from front end and is registered as concurrent program in oracle apps and running fine alone.
xx_nidhi_proc2 calls the concurrent program of xx_nidhi_proc1 which is XX_NIDS_PROC1_PROG1.
But the problem in my code is , It runs the second concurrent program for xx_nidhi_proc2 but shows the Inactive- No Manager status for my first concurrent program XX_NIDS_PROC1_PROG1,

How to call a AM method with parameters from Managed Bean?

Hi Everyone,
I have a situation where I need to call AM method (setDefaultSubInv) from Managed bean, under Value change Listner method. Here is what I am doing, I have added AM method on to the page bindings, then in bean calling this
Class[] paramTypes = { };
Object[] params = { } ;
invokeEL("#{bindings.setDefaultSubInv.execute}", paramTypes, params);
This works and able to call this method if there are no parameters. Say I have to pass a parameter to AM method setDefaultSubInv(String a), i tried calling this from the bean but throws an error
String aVal = "test";
Class[] paramTypes = {String.class };
Object[] params = {aVal } ;
invokeEL("#{bindings.setDefaultSubInv.execute}", paramTypes, params);
I am not sure this is the right way to call the method with parameters. Can anyone tell how to call a AM method with parameters from Manage bean
Thanks,
San.

Simply do the following
1- Make your Method in Client Interface.
2- Add it to Page Def.
3- Customize your Script Like the below one to Achieve your goal.
BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
OperationBinding operationBinding = bindings.getOperationBinding("GetUserRoles");
operationBinding.getParamsMap().put("username", "oracle");
operationBinding.getParamsMap().put("role", "F1211");
operationBinding.getParamsMap().put("Connection", "JDBC");
Object result = operationBinding.execute();
if (!operationBinding.getErrors().isEmpty()) {
return null;
return null;
i hope it help you
thanks

How to call a Store Procedure with IN PARAMETER

Hi, im new using Oracle 10G with Oracle SQL Developer, my cuestion is how to call a Store Procedure with IN PARAMETER, I tried the following without results
SELECT * FROM procedure_name(parameter);
PROCEDURE procedure_name(parameter);
EXEC procedure_name(parameter);
CALL procedure_name(parameter);
Please help me....

Hi,
As Beijing said,
EXEC procedure_name(parameter);
CALL procedure_name(parameter);work for me.
So does
BEGIN
procedure_name(parameter);
END;Can you be more specific about what you're doing? That is, are you testing it in SQL Developer? Where are you entering the commands? Where are you looking for output? Do you get error messages? Does anything else (like "SELECT SYSDATE FROM dual;") work?

Calling a Stored Procedure with output parameters from Query Templates

This is same problem which Shalaka Khandekar logged earlier. This new thread gives the complete description about our problem. Please go through this problem and suggest us a feasible solution.
We encountered a problem while calling a stored procedure from MII Query Template as follows-
1. Stored Procedure is defined in a package. Procedure takes the below inputs and outputs.
a) Input1 - CLOB
b) Input2 - CLOB
c) Input3 - CLOB
d) Output1 - CLOB
e) Output2 - CLOB
f) Output3 - Varchar2
2. There are two ways to get the output back.
a) Using a Stored Procedure by declaring necessary OUT parameters.
b) Using a Function which returns a single value.
3. Consider we are using method 2-a. To call a Stored Procedure with OUT parameters from the Query Template we need to declare variables of
corresponding types and pass them to the Stored Procedure along with the necessary input parameters.
4. This method is not a solution to get output because we cannot declare variables of some type(CLOB, Varchar2) in Query Template.
5. Even though we are successful (step 4) in declaring the OUT variables in Query Template and passed it successfully to the procedure, but our procedure contains outputs which are of type CLOB. It means we are going to get data which is more than VARCHAR2 length which query template cannot return(Limit is 32767
characters)
6. So the method 2-a is ruled out.
7. Now consider method 2-b. Function returns only one value, but we have 3 different OUT values. Assume that we have appended them using a separator. This value is going to be more than 32767 characters which is again a problem with the query template(refer to point 5). So option 2-b is also ruled out.
Apart from above mentioned methods there is a work around. It is to create a temporary table in the database with above 3 OUT parameters along with a session specific column. We insert the output which we got from the procedure to the temporary table and use it further. As soon the usage of the data is completed we delete the current session specific data. So indirectly we call the table as a Session Table. This solution increases unnecessary load on the database.
Thanks in Advance.
Rajesh

Rajesh,
please check if this following proposal could serve you.
Define the Query with mode FixedQueryWithOutput. In the package define a ref cursor as IN OUT parameter. To get your 3 values back, open the cursor in your procedure like "Select val1, val2, val3 from dual". Then the values should get into your query.
Here is an example how this could be defined.
Package:
type return_cur IS ref CURSOR;
Procedure:
PROCEDURE myProc(myReturnCur IN OUT return_cur) ...
OPEN myReturnCur FOR SELECT val1, val2, val3 FROM dual;
Query:
DECLARE
MYRETURNCUR myPackage.return_cur;
BEGIN
myPackage.myProc(
MYRETURNCUR => ?
END;
Good luck.

How to implement list of values with bind parameters

Hi All,
Please give me details about how to implement list of values with bind parameters.
I have implemented with below things.
1) created lov view object with query like select meaning, lookup_code from fnd_lookup_values where lookup_type=:1;
2) The above vo added to applicationa module.
3) created Controller class in the co class written code in processRequest();
String vLookupType=pageContext.getParameter("LookupType");
Serializable params={vLookupType};
am.invokemethod("Initialize",params);
4) In AM Impl Class invoke the VO
5) In VO Impl class executed the query..
But the above process working fine but when i give the value in lov text field like 'C' then press tab button the result will not showing instead of that i am getting error message, i want to implement standard lov functionality while implementing query with bind parameter.
any thing reqired to add the code to controller for search criteria..
Thanks
Mateti

Hi

How to call a dialog program with return value in another dialog program

Dear All,
How can I call a dialog program with return value from another dialog program?
Regards,
Alok.

Hi Alok,
You can you SET/GET parameters to do this.
This is some information about this.
To fill the input fields of a called transaction with data from the calling program, you can use the SPA/GPA technique. SPA/GPA parameters are values that the system stores in the global, user-specific SAP memory. SAP memory allows you to pass values between programs. A user can access the values stored in the SAP memory during one terminal session for all parallel sessions. Each SPA/GPA parameter is identified by a 20-character code. You can maintain them in the Repository Browser in the ABAP Workbench. The values in SPA/GPA parameters are user-specific.
ABAP programs can access the parameters using the SET PARAMETER and GET PARAMETERstatements.
To fill one, use:
SET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD f.
This statement saves the contents of field f under the ID pid in the SAP memory. The ID pid can be up to 20 characters long. If there was already a value stored under pid, this statement overwrites it. If you double-click pid in the ABAP Editor, parameters that do not exist can be created as a Repository object.
To read an SPA/GPA parameter, use:
GET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD f.
This statement places the value stored under the pid ID into the variable f. If the system does not find any value for pid in the SAP memory, sy-subrc is set to 4. Otherwise, it sets the value to 0.

How to call a method repeatedly with JSP custom tag?

This senerio is very similar to the usage of StringBuffer.
I have a problem which can be solved easily with scriptlets:
<% NameValuePair nvp = new NameValuePair(request.getQueryString()); %>
<a href="foo.html?<%=nvp.add(name1", "value1").add("name2", "value2").toString();%">">Foo</a>
<a href="bar.html?<%=new NameValuePair(request.getQueryString()).add("x", 1).add("y", 2).toString()%>">Bar</a>
But I cannot use scriplets because it's turned off. I can only use jsp custom tag / jstl. How would I implement this functionality with a custom tag? How would the JSP code look like? Our container supports JSP 2.0.
Thanks.</a>

hi,
you can do within 2 step-
1) use <%@page import="your_java_class"%>
2)use scriptlet code <%...%> and write coding in this tag.
means create instance of your java class .
<% your_java_class obj1=new your_java_class();
obj1.method_of_your_java_class();
%>or
3) you can make javabean to use method of java class.[Best option]
Thanx

How to call a C method with Java

Hi all,
is it possible calling a C method with Java?? And how to...?
thx for helping
Cobol1

is it possible calling a C method with Java?? And how to...?Not in general no.
You can use JNI which will call another C function (which you write) and which then calls your C method.
If the method is of a specific type (like OLE, Corba) then there are packages available which can allow you to access it. They still use JNI underneath, but hide that functionality from you.

Problem in calling of stored procedure with variable parameters

Hello!
When we try to call our stored procudure with variable parameter (year and month) we receive various errors.
Here's the dynamic package script code:
DEBUG(ON)
PROMPT(SELECTINPUT,,,"Please select time for restatement",%TIME_DIM%)
TASK(Execute formulas,USER,%USER%)
TASK(Execute formulas,APPSET,%APPSET%)
TASK(Execute formulas,APP,%APP%)
TASK(Execute formulas,SELECTION,%SELECTIONFILE%)
TASK(Execute formulas,LOGICFILE,%APPPATH%\..\AdminApp\%APP%\zbpc_to_fm.lgx)
TASK(Execute formulas,RUNMODE,1)
TASK(Execute formulas,LOGICMODE,1)
TASK(Execute formulas,SIMULATION,1)
TASK(Execute formulas,CHECKLCK,0)
Our logic script file (zbpc_to_fm.lgx) code is:
*RUN_STORED_PROCEDURE=ztest('%TIME_SET%')
*commit
The problem occures while transferring the variable parameter %TIME_SET% value.
How can we correctly transfer the selected value of TIME_SET into the procedure?

Everything in the debug log looks correct -- the most important lines are the ones indicating the values passed from the user's response to the PROMPT(SELECTINPUT...)
INFO(%CATEGORY_SET%, BUDGET)
INFO(%ENTITY_SET%, 1733)
INFO(%FUND_SET%, )
INFO(%PROJECT_SET%, )
INFO(%TIME_SET%, 2008.NOV)
Are you certain that the stored proc is processing the input parameter for time correctly, when you run it directly in MS Mgmt Studio?
What error messages do you see running it from BPC?
By "customized user authorities" do you mean that the time dimension is secured, and this user has access only to 2008.total and its descendants? If that's the case, the user should be able to see only those members in the action pane / current view, but the SELECTINPUT prompt should only show the base members (and not the year total and quarters). I'm still confused as to why all 12 + 4 + 1 members are passed through to the stored proc.

How to write XSJS Select Query with input parameters

Hello Experts,
I am creating a xsjs file and in that file I am trying to write a Select Query based on a Calculation View
I have tried it the following way:
var query = 'SELECT TOP 100 \"Name\", \"Address\", \"City\", \"Country\" FROM \"_SYS_BIC\".\"Test.HL/AddressView\"'
+ 'WITH PARAMETERS(\'PLACEHOLDER\' = (\'$$P_Name$$\', \' Akhil \'),'
+ '\'PLACEHOLDER\' = (\'$$P_City$$\', \' Lucknow \'))';
But it gives me the "Mixed spaces and tabs error".
How should I write XSJS Select Query with input parameters?
Regards,
Rohit

>But it gives me the "Mixed spaces and tabs error".
Mixed spaces and tabs has nothing to do with the syntax of the statement. You used both spaces and the tab in the content - which JSLint doesn't like. Remove the beginning spaces of each line and use only one or the other.
The actual syntax of your statement doesn't look right. The problem is that you are escaping the \ when you don't need to if you are using ' instead of " for your string. You escape with \" in the first line but then escape with \' in the 2nd and 3rd line. That is going to cause serious parsing problems with the command.

How to filter a sharepoint list with report parameters

Hello there,
I'm trying to make a sql report on a sharepoint library. I have no problems to connect to the library but i cannot find a way to filter my data source with report parameters. I've searched on the net a lot, found some stuffs about xml but nothing that shows
how to do it with sharepoint. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Hi mgarant,
As you mentioned, by default, we can use xml parameter "query" to filter a SharePoint list from SQL Server Reporting Services. We can also modify the value for the "query" to use SQL Server Reporting Serivces parameters to filter the SharePoint list.
Below are the detailed steps for your reference:
1.Change the query string to be a string like this:
<Query>
<SoapAction>http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetListItems</SoapAction>
<Method Namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/" Name="GetListItems">
<Parameters>
<Parameter Name="listName">
<DefaultValue>{ADBE55DB-63A1-4C14-9DA0-B1B05C13B4C8}</DefaultValue>
</Parameter>
<Parameter Name="query" Type="xml">
</Parameter>
</Parameters>
</Method>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">*</ElementPath>
</Query>
2.In the dataset modification dialog, go to "Parameters" tab.
3.Create a Report Parameter(e.g. CityParam).
4.In parameter tab, create a parameter with:
Name: query
Value: ="<Query>
   <Where>
      <Eq>
         <FieldRef Name='WorkCity' />
         <Value Type='Text'>" & Parameters!CityParam.Value & "</Value>
      </Eq>
   </Where>
</Query>"
Please note, “case sensitive” is required. In this case, the parameter name for "query" must be in lower case. WorkCity is name of a field in the SharePoint list.
For more information about how to retrieve value from SharePoint list, I would suggest you reading the following article and threads:
http://vspug.com/dwise/2007/11/28/connecting-sql-reporting-services-to-a-sharepoint-list-redux/
http://blogs.msdn.com/mariae/archive/2007/12/13/querying-sharepoint-list-from-reporting-services-returns-only-not-null-columns.aspx
I also implemented a sample, you could download it from:
http://cid-3c7e963ff6ccd974.office.live.com/browse.aspx/.Public/SharePoint%20List%20sample?uc=2
Please feel free to ask, if you have any more questions.

How to call a Stored Procedure with a REF CURSOR output parameter

I am looking forward an example that call a stored function/procedure with a REF CURSOR output parameter and get the result.
In other words, I have a stored function/procedure that execute a SELECT statement using the OCI library and then it could get the values of each column and each row.
I put a code snippet, it have only the main thing to call a simple stored procedure and print the name of each column of the cursor, but I couldn´t to print out the values in the table that call the stored procedure.
I understand that the next step, it is to call a OCIStmtFetch.
How to associate the cursor with the OCIStmtFetch?
If you need more information, only tell me.
I am using ANSI C with HP-UX Operative System (C for HP-UX) and Oracle 10g.
Regards.

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your recommendations.
I change the code with OCIDefineByPos, one for each parameter from cursor and then use the OCIStmtFetch.
I don´t receive a error when call OCIDefineByPos, but when I call OCIStmtFetch receive a -1 error number.
What is wrong with the code?
The script is the same.
I need your help!
Best Regards!

How to call excel macros programmatically in C#?

Hi,
I have a requirement where i need to call excel (2003) macros in C# program. Can anyone help me with a code snippet to do the same?
The excel macro function takes two input parameters? how can the parameters be passed?
Any code snippet to do the same in C# would be helpful.
Thanks.

Hey there, Sid. I am tryin gto run your code, but I couldn't even gte it to fire. Here's what I ahve now:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel;
namespace WindowsFormsApplication2
    public partial class Form1 : Form
        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
            //~~> Define your Excel Objects
            Excel.Application xlApp = new Excel.Application();
            Excel.Workbook xlWorkBook;
            //~~> Start Excel and open the workbook.
            xlWorkBook = xlApp.Workbooks.Open("C:\\Users\\Ryan\\Desktop\\Coding\\Microsoft Excel\\Work Samples\\Work Samples\\Historical Stock Prices.xlsb");
            //~~> Run the macros by supplying the necessary arguments
            xlApp.Run("ShowMsg", "Hello from C# Client", "Demo to run Excel macros from C#");
            //~~> Clean-up: Close the workbook
            xlWorkBook.Close(false);
            //~~> Quit the Excel Application
            xlApp.Quit();
            //~~> Clean Up
            releaseObject(xlApp);
            releaseObject(xlWorkBook);
        //~~> Release the objects
        private void releaseObject(object obj)
            try
                System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(obj);
                obj = null;
            catch (Exception ex)
                obj = null;
            finally
                GC.Collect();
When I hit the play button nothing happens. When I hot F5 nothing happens. Do you ahve any idea what I'm doing wrong. I'd appreciate any advice with this!!
Thanks!!
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.
