hi Abhimanyu
I believe originally access to session was deliberately not made available inside WDA.
Growing security concerns due to misuse of session information and
perhaps other reasons as well.
X.509 is considered a better approach.
This may not help you in your problem.
But you may see a trend in WDA pushing more robust and client independent
approaches.
Full x.509 access should remove the need for session fiddling.
Also when developers access such session info directly, there is a possiblity
when they dont understand the technology exactly that they create a security hole.
You may know how to do safely, it is however discouraged.
Im not aware of a way to get at the session info inside the WDA framework.
Well not without a mod to the framework.
It may be possible without a mod, but I dont know the trick.
If someone has a little trick... please post.
You may need to use BSP, if your only solution requires access to the session info.

How To Get GP Process Parameters in a Webdynpro Application runtime

Hi ,
Iu2019 ll hope you can help me to solve my problem with GP process.
Iu2019 m trying to get GP process parameters from a Webdynpro application.
I have to get parameters during the process runtime in every step of the process using
a webdynpro application with the following code:
      IGPRuntimeManager rtm = GPProcessFactory.getRuntimeManager();
      try {
            IGPProcessInstance processInst = rtm.getProcessInstance(processId,userContext);
            IGPProcessInstanceInfo procInfo = rtm.getProcessInstanceInformation(processInst.getID(),
userContext.getSAPUser());
            IGPStructureInfo inputstructInfo = processInst.getTemplate().getInputParameters();
            IGPStructure inputparams = GPStructureFactory.getStructure(inputstructInfo);
      } catch (GPEngineException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
//          e.printStackTrace();
            manager.reportException("GPEngineException:"+getStackTrace(e), false);
      } catch (GPInvocationException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
//          e.printStackTrace();
            manager.reportException("GPInvocationException:"+getStackTrace(e), false);
But printing the values of attributes with u201Cinputparams.getAttributeAs... ("param name")u201C the value returned is always 0. On the contrary if I check the same parameters structure in the runtime
GP view of the portal, the values are those that I have set in the start process wizard.
Have you a solution for this question?
Thanks in advance

How to get the UserTransaction object in stateless session bean

Hi, I am using jboss server and jdk5 version and using EJB.
My Application flow :
JSP à Action(Struts) à Service Locator à Session bean à Entity Bean(cmp) à DB.
I tried to get the UserTransaction object in my Action. Its my code.
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
UserTransaction uTrans = (UserTransaction) ctx.lookup("java:comp/UserTransaction");
After used uTrans.begin(),uTrans.commit() and uTrans. rollback () also.
Its working fine .
But, I used the the same code inside in my session bean its not working.
Stateless Session Manager Bean code :
public class SampleManagerBean implements SessionBean {
public void ejbCreate() throws CreateException { }
public void ejbRemove() { }
public void ejbActivate() {   }
public void ejbPassivate() {   }
public void setSessionContext(SessionContext sessionContext) {
this.sessionContext = sessionContext;
     public void createSample() throws EJBException
     try{
               InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
               UserTransaction ut = (UserTransaction) ctx.lookup("java:comp/UserTransaction");
          }catch(Exception e) {
          System.out.println( Exception === > +e)
Its throws the error ie: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: UserTransaction not bound
How to get the UserTransaction object in my session bean. Kindly give solution the above errors.
- Thendral

first of all, you could just use sessionContext.getUserTransaction(). however, that would only work if your bean is using bean-managed transactions. the default is container-managed transaction, in which case you cannot get a UserTransaction object. if you want to manage transactions, you need to add the TransactionManagementType.BEAN annotation to your ejb.

OIM 11g R2 - How to get requester key in validator

Hi All,
I am writing a small validator code which throws an exception,if the request is trying to submitted by xelsysadm.May I know how I can get the requester details (like key) in the validator code.
The validator API takes RequestData as a parameter but there is no way to get the requester details from RequesData object.Thanks in advance.

How to get the profile object in simple java class (Property accessor)

Hi All,
Please guide me how to get the profile object in simple java class (Property accessor) which is extending the RepositoryPropertyDescriptor.
I have one requirement where i need the profile object i.e i have store id which is tied to profile .so i need the profile object in the property accessor of the SKU item descriptor property, which is extending RepositoryPropertyDescriptor.
a.I dont have request object also to do request.resolvename.
b.It is not a component to create setter and getter.It is simple java class which is extending the RepositoryPropertyDescriptor.
Advance Thanks.

Iam afraid you might run into synchronization issues with it. You are trying to get/set value of property of a sku repository item that is shared across various profiles.
Say one profile A called setPropertyValue("propertyName", value).Now another profile B accesses
getPropertyValue() {
super.getPropertyValue() // Chance of getting value set by Profile A.
// Perform logic
There is a chance that profile B getting the value set by Profile A and hence inconsistency.
How about doing this way??
Create PropertyDescriptor in Profile (i.e user item descriptor), pass the attribute CustomCatalogTools in userProfile.xml to that property.
<attribute name="catalogTools" value="atg.commerce.catalog.CustomCatalogTools"/>
getPropertyValue()
//You have Profile item descriptor and also storeId property value.
// Use CustomCatalogTools.findSku();
// Use storeId, profile repository item, sku repository item to perform the logic
Here user itemdescriptor getPropertyValue/setPropertyValue is always called by same profile and there is consistency.

How to validate a session object in jsp?

Hi All,
i am facing a problem.The problem is how to validate the session object object in jsp.I have written a java script by using a defined function as setInterval and has given 5 mintues if the user is idle and will show a pop up menu before time out the session but in case of page active still this pop up menu is coming. The java script as follows.
function SetTimer(){
     //How long before timeout (should be a few minutes before your server's timeout
     //set timer to call function to confirm update
     if(timeoutMinutes)
     timerObj = setInterval("ConfirmUpdate()",60000);
function clearTimerFn(){
          timerCount = 0;
          clearInterval(timerObj);
          //timerObj = setInterval("ConfirmUpdate()",60000);
function ConfirmUpdate(){
     //Ask them to extend
     if(confirm("Your session is about to expire. Press 'OK' to renew your session.")){
          //load server side page if ok
          var url = "ajaxSessionchecker.do?sessionvalidate=sessionvalid";
          LoadXMLDoc(url);
And in jsp i am calling this js function as
<%session=request.getSession(false);
          if(session.getLastAccessedTime()==60000){ %>
          <script type="text/JavaScript">
     clearTimerFn();
</script>
<%}else{
session.setMaxInactiveInterval(-1000);} %>
could you pls help me out?

The reason for doing this is when ever i come to this user.jsp from account.jsp with a different account number this user.jsp is not refreshed and i still
see the same old user.jsp for the previous account that i naviated before. Also please let me know if there is any other approach to acheive this taskDoes refreshing the page by pushing F5 solve the problem?
If so, then the browser is caching the page, despite your attempts to stop it.

How to get transacted session in direct mode with jmsra adapter

Hi,
I use MQ 4.4u1 release with GF in EMBEDDED mode. I configured several connection factories with NoTransaction/LocalTransaction/XATransaction support. In my app I get a connection factory from JNDI tree, create connection/session/producer and send several messages to queue. Everything works fine when I don't use transactions. But, when I want to send messages in one transaction, the connection always provided to me non-transacted session. The session created via
Session session = connection.createSession(true, Session.SESSION_TRANSACTED);
request. I check the session transacted state and acknowledge mode right after i get it:
log.fine("Session: " + session + "; transacted: " + session.getTransacted() + "; ackMode: " + session.getAcknowledgeMode());
The log shows me that the session is not transacted and ackMode is 0 (DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE). If I try to commit the session after messages were sent I get the correct exception:
javax.jms.IllegalStateException: MQJMSRA_DS4001: commit():Illegal for a non-transacted Session:sessionId=3361979872663370240
Does anyone know how to get transactional session in direct mode?
Thanks, Denis.

I mentioned LOCAL because I misread your post and thought you were suggesting that LOCAL mode behaved differently.
If you want to send messages in a transaction from within a Servlet then I think you're expected to use a UserTransaction: Here's an example that worked for me:
        Connection connection = outboundConnectionFactory.createConnection();
        Session session = connection.createSession(true, Session.SESSION_TRANSACTED);
        userTransaction.begin();
        MessageProducer producer = session.createProducer(outboundQueue);
        int numberOfMessages = 10;
        for (int i = 0; i<numberOfMessages; i++) {
            Message message = session.createTextMessage("Hello world");
            producer.send(message);
        userTransaction.commit();
        connection.close();I obtained the UserTransaction with this resource declaration:
    @Resource(name = "java:comp/UserTransaction")
    private UserTransaction userTransaction;The EJB spec explicitly states that local transactions aren't supported in EJBs; I haven't found such an explicit statement for Servlets but suspect that JMSRA is taking the same approach.
As for imq.jmsra.direct.disableCM property - this appears to disable connection pooling and from your post changes other behaviour as well. How did you find out about it (other than by examining the code)? As far as I can see this is not a documented feature and is not necessarily tested or supported.

How to get the view Object in UserDefined Action

Hi All,
Any body tell me how to get the view object , like the view object avilable in the wdDoModifyView() method as parameter.
I have requirement like, i want to change the , no of rows displaying in the table should be changed at the runtime based onthe no of rows selected in the dropdown box.
The action which i created will be assigned to that dropdown box, on select of the available option, i will get the view object and change the properties of the "maxrows" of the table .
so for getting the view object in the the Action methods tell me what is the procedure for getting the current view object.

Hello Vishal,
Simply create a value attribute (say rowCount) of type 'integer' and bind it to the 'visibleRowCount' property of your table. Then, in the actionHandler get the value from the UI element (in your case, I guess it is drop down) and set it to the attribute 'rowCount' like this.
wdContext.currentContextElement.setRowCount(
wdContext.current<nodeElement>.set<AttributeBound toDropDown>);

How to get customer-specific objects into PCUI ?

Hello,
we want to get an Z-table as tab page of the business partner-application into PCUI. It should 'only' be possible to create new entries - today there is no need to modify or delete records.
Does there exist something like a "cookbook" on this task or has anyone of you experience how to get customer-specific objects (without using EEWB) into PCUI ?
Thanks in advance
Martin

Option 1:
If you are good in ABAP.
You can add new tab in which create a new Field group. Assign it to a model access clas in which handle the table update.You can get the details in PCUI cookbook itsel.
Option 2:
If you are good at java
Develop an FM to update the table.
Call the FM from webdynpro
Include this webdynpro as HTML viewer in PCUI.

I forgot to write that I do not want to use a Map :)
(sure, it' possible via Map, no question).
But in Perl, for example, I could simply write
$ab="col" + "or";
$color="Beidge";
and than I can use address to a variable $color in
such a way : $$ab
... So if a Map is an only way... than it will be a
Map... pity..I do not really know Perl so I can not comment on it; but, are there any compiled languages (at least compiled to the degree of Java) that support this construct? All of the programming languages that I can think of that have this construct are more along the lines of scripting languages.
Just curious.
