How to get the current type of a generic Field Symbol

Hi Experts,
I have a Field Symbol:
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <lf_any> TYPE ANY.
I loop around an internal table with a generic structure and assign their fields to my fieldsymbol:
LOOP AT it_data ASSIGNING <lf_any>.
After executing this statement I am able to see the current Absolute Type of the field Symbol in debugger.
For example this could be TYPE ZX_1 in first loop, TYPE ZX_2 in second loop and so on...
Question: How can I get this current type within my Loop?
The Reason is I have to CREATE DATA xxx TYPE "current type of the field symbol".
Thanks,
Daniel

Hello Daniel
Do you have the RTTI classes available on your system? If so then try the following:
*& Report ZUS_SDN_RTTI_GET_TYPE
REPORT zus_sdn_rtti_get_type.
DATA: gt_knb1   TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF knb1,
      gd_type   TYPE string.
DATA: go_typedescr    TYPE REF TO cl_abap_typedescr,
      go_strucdescr   TYPE REF TO cl_abap_structdescr.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <gs_struc> TYPE ANY.
START-OF-SELECTION.
APPEND INITIAL LINE TO gt_knb1.
LOOP AT gt_knb1 ASSIGNING <gs_struc>.
    go_typedescr = cl_abap_typedescr=>describe_by_data( <gs_struc> ).
    go_strucdescr ?= go_typedescr.
    gd_type = go_typedescr->get_relative_name( ).
    WRITE: / 'Type=', gd_type.
    gd_type = go_strucdescr->get_relative_name( ).
    WRITE: / 'Type=', gd_type.
ENDLOOP.
END-OF-SELECTION.

How to get the current caret position of a field

I would like to mimic a feature known from some UI parts in Eclipse (especially launch configurations) - inserting a predefined variable. It allows to modify the value of a text field by inserting a special value to the position of the caret.
I'm struggling with how to get the caret position in Sapphire since the model does not propagate such UI-specific info. Is there a way how to implement this which does not involve creating a special field implementation?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the delay in responding. Currently, there is no API available to implement what you are describing. We should add a TextSelectionService similar to the existing ListSelectionService.

[CS3][JS] How to get the file type of current document

Hi,
How to get the file type of current opening document (e.g., tif, jpeg, png) using JavaScript with Photoshop CS3.
I am using file object the open the files one by one in the folder (the files sometimes don't have the extensions).
If the current document is in tiff format then I need to convert to 8-bit, if its an Jpg image then needs to ignore the file.
Regards,
Karthik

Do you really need to know the file type? What about just checking the bit depth?
var doc = activeDocument;
if (doc.bitsPerChannel != BitsPerChannelType.EIGHT) {//Not 8 bit
doc.bitsPerChannel = BitsPerChannelType.EIGHT;
//do your save etc
}else{
//Ignore

How to get the "current date" in the BEx?

Hi all,
I need to get the "current date" in my Bex report in order to make a comparison. I know there is a "How to" which shows how to get the current date via a User Exit, but I didn't find it. Could you please help me?
Thanks

1. Create a New Formula in Key Figures structure
2. Give tech name and description and Select "New variable" option
3. Next screen will launch Variable Wizard -> create a new variable with replacement path as processing type
4. in next screene select the date characteristic that represents the first date to use in the calculation (From Date)
5. In the next screen select Key in the Replace Variable with field. Leave all the other options as they are
6. In the next Currencies and Units screen select Date as the Dimension ID.
6. Save variable
repeate the Above steps to create another variable (To Date)
and now you can use these two new replacement path variables in your new formula.

How to get the current schema name

Hi,
Can anybody please tell me how to get the current schema name, there is some inbuilt function for this,but i am not getting that. Please help me.
Thanks
Jogesh

ok folks, I found the answer at Tom's as usual.
http://asktom.oracle.com/tkyte/who_called_me/index.html
I rewrote it into a function for kicks. just pass the results of DBMS_UTILITY.FORMAT_CALL_STACK to this function and you will get back the owner of the code making the call as well some extra goodies like the name of the code and the type of code depending on the parameter. This ignores the AUTHID CURRENT_USER issues which muddles the schemaid. Quick question, does the average user always have access to DBMS_UTILITY.FORMAT_CALL_STACK or does this get locked down on some systems?

1. create one input field,
2. create one attribute called Uid
3. assign Uid attribute to the input field
4. type the following code in Doinit() method
            String uid = wdContext.currentContextElement().getUid();
     try {
     IUser user = UMFactory.getUserFactory().
     getUserByLogonID(uid);
     String userName = user.getDisplayName();
     } catch (UMException ex) {
      e.toString();
5. after that go to Portal create one iview assign to particular user. then u get into the user details...

How to get the current tree element (node/childnode/childnode/...) ?

Hello!
I'm trying to create a kind of a navigation tree for my application.
It should represent some elements of an XML structure and some other nodes for other options.
The binding with the context is not a problem, I can create the tree up to all the levels I want to.
The problem now is, that I don't know, how to get the "current tree element", when there is any action.
For example:
public void onActionSelect(...) {
String test = wdContext.currentTreeNodeElement().getText();
wdThis.wdGetContext().currentContextElement().setSelectedElement(test);
With this method I can get the text of the "first level nodes". If I want to get the "second level node", I can do
String test = wdContext.currentTreeNodeElement().currentChildElement.getText();
..and for the next levels so on.
Isn't there any general method to get the information of the selected element without knowing before, whether it is a nodeElement or a nodeElement.currentChildElement or a nodeElement.currentChildElement.currentChildElement, ...?
Greetings,
Ramó

Hi,
if you following that pdf ,
i think your not implemented the below code in DomodifyView method
if (firstTime) {
      IWDTreeNodeType treeNode = (IWDTreeNodeType) view.getElement("TheNode");
      /* The following line is necessary to create parameter mapping from parameter "path" to parameter "selectedElement".
Parameter "path" is of type string and contains the string representation of the tree element (its corresponding context element to be exact)
that raised the onAction event. Parameter "selectedElement" is of type IWDNodeElement (or extends it) and is defined as parameter in the event handler
that handles the onAction. The parameter mapping defined here translates the String "path" into the corresponding context element that then can
be accessed within the event handler
      treeNode.mappingOfOnAction().addSourceMapping("path", "selectedElement");
      /* The following line is necessary to create parameter mapping from parameter "path" to parameter "element".
Parameter "path" is of type string and contains the string representation of the tree element (its corresponding context element to be exact)
that raised the onLoadChildren event. Parameter "element" is of type IWDNodeElement (or extends it) and is defined as parameter in the event handler
that handles the onLoadChildren. The parameter mapping defined here translates the String "path" into the corresponding context element that then can
be accessed within the event handler
      treeNode.mappingOfOnLoadChildren().addSourceMapping("path", "element");
please cross check once.
Thanks,
Ramesh

How to get the current path of my application in java ?

how to get the current path of my application in java ?
thanks

To get the path where your application has been installed you have to do the following:
have a class called "what_ever" in the folder.
then you do a litte:
String path=
what_ever.class.getRessource("what_ever.class").toString()
That get you a string like:
file:/C:/Program Files/Cool_program/what_ever.class
Then you process the result a little to remove anything you don't want:
path=path.substring(path.indexOf('/')+1),path.lastIndexOf('/'))
//Might be a little error here but you should find out //quickly if it's the case
And here you go, you have a nice
C:/Program Files/Cool_program
which is the path to your application.

How to get the current page URL

HI All
I am working in oracle apps 4.0
I have one page called history in that i have one page item called Application url. My application id is 122 but its a copy of application 106
How to get the current page url for the page item.
Any steps should be help ful
Thanks & Regards
Srikkanth.M

I'm not 100% clear on what the requirement is from the description, however it does sound like you are making things unnecessarily complicated.
If you want permanent/ID-independent links then use application and page aliases.
so here we used to display the url like this: <tt>{noformat}http://81.131.254.171:8080/apex/f?p=122{noformat}</tt>
Do you mean that the URL is displayed like that? If so that doesn't seem particularly helpful. How is anyone supposed to know what it is?
There are many ways to provide links in APEX—including lists and nav bars.
Where the link is to another resource located on the same server (such as another page in the same app, or a different app in the workspace), relative addressing can be used, making it unecessary to include scheme, domain and port information in the URL. For example, if the page to be linked to has a page alias <tt>ABOUT</tt> in an application with alias <tt>UNITY</tt>, and the apps share an authentication scheme/cookie to permit shared sessions, then the link URL is simply
f?p=UNITY:ABOUT:&APP_SESSION.
