How to logoff from HCP Java Web application

Hi all,
I need to enable logoff from my UI5 application, based on Java EE / HCP.
Authentication is enforced with SAML and SAP ID Service.
I guess that, upon clicking a button, a request should be sent to the SAML IdP service in order to perform logout.
However, I'm not sure how that is performed.
Any help or link to documentation would be greatly valued.
Thanks a lot
Regards
Vincenzo

You are right, I guess my question is a good candidate for RTFM!
I should have searched also on help.ondemand.com
I just looked into SDN and ui5 sdk help.
Thanks for your help

How to call Xcelsius in Java Web application without OpenDoc

Hi,
We require to call Xcelsius Dashboard from a Java Web application. We cann't use OpenDoc function as result of some client preferences/restrictions
Please let me know, what would be the other method to call the Xcelsius Dashboard from a Web application.

Xcelsius docs are in swf format. You could probably just host them without security and view with flash.

Using a VB Class from a Java Web Application

Hi,
I need to instance a VB class, and then to invoke their methods, from a java web apllication. The code is:
Set object = CreateObject("AS2.OBJECTS")
If object.PutName(sCadenaError, sEntidad) Then
Array1 = object.getData(sCadenaError, iEntorno, False)
End if
"AS2" is the VB dll library. "OBJECTS" is the class to instance. And "PutName" and "getData" are the methods that the web application has to call.
Can I instance the class from Java, and use the methods with the same data types? What steps have I to do in JNI?
Thanks in advance,
Mary

Open a SAPGUI transaction from a Java web application

Hi all,
   We are in the process of developing a Java based web application with SAP J2EE engine - but not SAP Enterprise Portal. One of the requirements we have is from one of the web screens there needs to be a button which launches SAPGUI and take the user to a particular transaction in SAPGUI. The user is going to have SAPGUI installed on their desktop.
   We were planning to user SAP Shortcut technique for launching the SAPGUI but the issue with that is the user has to logon each time ( even thought it is possible to have the password stored - even then there will be other messages that the user has to pass through before reaching the final transaction ). The users are going to have a number of items in the screen and they need to go through this for every item.
   I was wondering if there is anyway this can done so that the user does not have to go through all these steps ( BTW, the user is already authenticated on the web application and so functionally done not have to be authenticated again).
ANy suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Regards
Ravi

Hello Gregor,
SAPGui is inatalled on each user box, we can launch the SAPGui thick client from an iview (to run on a seperate window).
How can I pass (R/3 logon) parameters to the SAPGui command line?
Thank you
AAAttar
eg:
would a batch file with saplogon then sapgui work?
DOS command prompt [CMD]
>saplogon.exe -user=... -password=... -system=QAS123 -client=001 -tcode=session_mananger
>SAPGui.exe...

Calling a soap web service from a java desktop application

Hi,
Does anyone know how to call a soap web service from a java desktop application? I've seen examples using Apache Axis, but it sounds like Axis needs to run on a web server and we are trying to avoid that. My initial thought was that, "of course we need a web server", but I'm wondering if there is a way to do this without a web server.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
thank you,
Julie

If you are the consumer you don't need any web server. The web server is only needed in the provider end.
In java 6 there is a built in framework to call web services without the need of third parties (such as apache axis)
take a look at:
https://jax-ws.dev.java.net/guide/Developing_client_application_with_locally_packaged_WSDL.html
http://java.sun.com/webservices/technologies/index.jsp
For the provider end there is also a built in http server to expose web service via HTTP without the need to
use any external web server.
take a look at:
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/xml/ws/Endpoint.html

How can make java servlet sent soap message to other java web application

hello,
i want to make simple servlet send soap message to other java web application containing web service????
for example
web application " A " contain web service add two number
java servlet " B " send soap message contain num1 and num2 to A to add them.
how can do this????

I tried that but my problem is that the code is so old. At least what I saw. I don't know how old is too old and I'm trying to do things "right." I saw code from 1998, but I don't know if that's still what you do. It might still work, but that doesn't mean it's correct. There's so much out there on Java that so old that half the time I'm not sure what to do because some other technology in J2EE or the latest Java SDK might have come up with a new way to do things. Thanks.

Can't connect to Oracle XE instance from Java web application

I'm a long-time Java developer but can't figure this out.
I've been pouring over the forum for over a week and can't
find the solution that will let me connect.
Hardware: Intel/Vista.
DB: Oracle Express 10G.
Application: Java web application (Jakarta Struts)
Application Server: Tomcat 5.5
I copied the latest JDBC driver from OTN into my app server's "/LIB" directory.
I get no driver errors. ("ojdbc14.JAR)"
I can connect locally from my TOAD client, using SYSTEM/PASSWORD/XE.
My listeners seem to be OK.
Depending on which connection string I use from my Java application,
I get one of two messages.
"ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied"
OR
"Io exception: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection"

    conn = ods.getConnection("scott", "tiger");
    Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
    ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery("select BANNER from SYS.V_$VERSION");
    while (rset.next())
        System.out.println (rset.getString(1));   // Print col 1

}There are several different ways to configure OracleDataSources:

So, hopefully it's just a mismatch config.

I have few questions...
1) Can I use the JCO destination created in thru wed dynpro content administrator, to connect to sap and execute the rfc/bapi?
2) How would I create and access the model (rfc)?
3) Are the required jar and dll(rfc32.dll ... ) files available on the server?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

How to avoid directory listing in java web applications.

how to avoid directory listing in java web applications.
That is on typing the url of the application it should not the directory listing. Welcome tag in web.xml doesnot fully solve the problem, since still the images folder etc is still accessible

I know of two ways.
If you're using tomcat and have access to the conf directory.
Edit your $TOMCAT/conf/web.xml. Find your default servlet properties and change
<servlet>
    <servlet-name>default</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>debug</param-name>
      <param-value>0</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>listings</param-name>
      <param-value>true</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>to <servlet>
    <servlet-name>default</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>debug</param-name>
      <param-value>0</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>listings</param-name>
      <param-value>false</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>And restart your server. This will affect every directory on the server, and return a 405 directory browsing forbidden error.
Another way, is to place an index.jsp inside each directory with a simple one line redirect to your applications CONTEXT_PATH.response.sendRedirect("http://yourserver/yourapp/");This will only affect specific directories which contain these index.jsp files.
Hope this helps

Integrating a Java web application into the SAP NetWeaver Portal

Hello experts,
We have a requirement to integrate a Java based web application into the SAP NetWeaver Portal using iView/iFrame technology. The Java based web application is completely independent from the SAP environment but should be displayed as part of the SAP Portal environment. The other requirement is the main navigation menu for the Java based web application should be configured and provided in the SAP Portal.
Any pointers on how exactly this can be done would be of great help.
Also how can the SSO (Single-Sign-On) to the Java application be implemented so that the user can logon to the java application through the portal without providing the user credentials again.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I think you can use URL iviews to integrate your java web application with EP. you have the option of doing SSO with the application as well.
Have a look at the sap help material

Calling OWF from customer build web application

All, All the example that I've read from OWF documentation is assuming that you builder the workflow from OWF Builder and manage it thru OWF manager, monitor is thru OWF Monitor. I'm wondering if it is possible to monitor the workflow and manage the workflow from customer build web application. Since we don't want our users have to login several times and use different URLs to get into the customer build application, then manage the workflow and monitor it via different urls. Anybody has experience doing all from one application can provide any insight would be greatly appreciated.
dsl

Hi,
Well, I did my JSP pages doing selects to OWF tables and OWF java APIs. I used owf pl/sql procedures as my reference. For example, I need to know how to create actions buttons. I looked at wfa_html procedure and looked for how it was doing that.
Any doubts just ask,

Good exception handling policy for Java web application

I'm looking for a good exception handling policy for Java web application. First I found this Java exception handling best practices - How To Do In Java which says that you should never catch the Trowable class nor use e.printStackTrace();
Then I found this Oracle page The Message-Driven Bean Class - The Java EE 6 Tutorial, which does just that. So now I'm confused. Is there a good page online for an exception handling policy for Java EE Web applications? I have a hard time finding one. I've read that you should not catch the Exception class. I've been catching it previously to make sure that some unknown exception doesn't slip through early in the loop and stops all other customers from executing later on in the loop. We have a loop which runs once a minute implemented using the Quartz framework. Is it OK if you just change the implementation to catch the RuntimeException class instead of the Exception class? We're using Java 7 and the Jetty Servlet Container.

I'm looking for a good exception handling policy for Java web application.
If you have not done so I suggest you start by reviewing the several trails in The Java Tutorials.
Those trails cover both HOW to use exceptions and WHEN to use them.
This trail discusses the 'controversy' you mention regarding 'Unchecked Exceptions'
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/exceptions/runtime.html
Unchecked Exceptions — The Controversy
Because the Java programming language does not require methods to catch or to specify unchecked exceptions (RuntimeException, Error, and their subclasses), programmers may be tempted to write code that throws only unchecked exceptions or to make all their exception subclasses inherit from RuntimeException. Both of these shortcuts allow programmers to write code without bothering with compiler errors and without bothering to specify or to catch any exceptions. Although this may seem convenient to the programmer, it sidesteps the intent of the catch or specify requirement and can cause problems for others using your classes.
Why did the designers decide to force a method to specify all uncaught checked exceptions that can be thrown within its scope? Any Exception that can be thrown by a method is part of the method's public programming interface. Those who call a method must know about the exceptions that a method can throw so that they can decide what to do about them. These exceptions are as much a part of that method's programming interface as its parameters and return value.
The next question might be: "If it's so good to document a method's API, including the exceptions it can throw, why not specify runtime exceptions too?" Runtime exceptions represent problems that are the result of a programming problem, and as such, the API client code cannot reasonably be expected to recover from them or to handle them in any way. Such problems include arithmetic exceptions, such as dividing by zero; pointer exceptions, such as trying to access an object through a null reference; and indexing exceptions, such as attempting to access an array element through an index that is too large or too small.
Generally don't catch an exception unless you plan to HANDLE the exception. Logging, by itself is NOT handliing.
First I found this Java exception handling best practices - How To Do In Java which says that you should never catch the Trowable class nor use e.printStackTrace();
That article, like many, has some good advice and some poor or even bad advice. You get what you pay for!
I've read that you should not catch the Exception class.
Ok - but all that does is indicate that a problem of some sort happened somewhere. Not very useful info. Java goes to a lot of trouble to provide specific exceptions for specific problems.
I've been catching it previously to make sure that some unknown exception doesn't slip through early in the loop and stops all other customers from executing later on in the loop.
If the exception is 'unknown' then maybe it NEEDS to 'stop all other customers from executing later on in the loop'.
That is EXACTLY why you don't want to do that. You need to identify which exceptions should NOT stop processing and which ones should.
Some 'unknown' exceptions can NOT be recovered and indicate a serious problem, perhaps with the JVM itself. You can NOT just blindly keep executing and ignore them without risking data corruption and/or the integrity of the entire system Java is running on.
Is it OK if you just change the implementation to catch the RuntimeException class instead of the Exception class? We're using Java 7 and the Jetty Servlet Container.
No - not if you want a well-behaved system.
Don't catch exceptions unless you HANDLE/resolve them. There are times when it makes sense to log the exception (which does NOT handle it) and then raise it again so that it gets handled properly later. Yes - I know that is contrary to the advice given in that article but, IMHO, that article is wrong about that point.
If you have ever had to maintain/fix/support someone else's Java code you should already understand how difficult it can be to find WHERE a problem occurs and WHAT the exact problem is when exceptions are not handled properly.

Upgrading BOE XI R2 Java Web Applications to use BOE XI 3.1

Hello,
Does anyone know where I can get documentation about how to update Java Web Applications using BOE XI R2 to BOE XI 3.1? I search the documentation online and I couldn't find any.
I believe that it should be a matter of just updating the Java Archve (JAR) files and the helper files in the 'crystalreportviewers' folder. There should not be any changes to how I use the Enterprise SDK, RAS and Viewers SDK. If there are any, there should be very few. I just want to make sure of this.
Thanks,
R.C.

Hi,
Upgrading the Jar files and viewers directory ( crystalreportviewers12) should be sufficient. Please refer to 3.1 Java developer guide for ,pre information.
Thanks

Start a BO report from within a web-application.

Hi,
An enuser want to start a BO report from within a web-application.
The BO report ideally should not prompt for a login. The fact that we are using BO for reporting purposes should be transparent to the end users. The report should produce its output directly in Excel (pdf?) format. In WebI i can do a 'Save As' to obtain this, but it should go automatically so that the end users get their response directly in Excel
the report should be parametrized. These parameters will be added to the URL by the calling application.
To do a basic test of the Opendocument.jsp i created a number of test reports in WEBI, and i use the following URLs to execute them directly
http://s-olaf-vtst150:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?&sPath=[My reports]&sDocName=tmsd1&sType=rep&sRefresh=Y
http://s-olaf-vtst150:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?&sPath=[My reports]&sDocName=Yearselection&sType=rep&sRefresh=Y&lsSYear:=2002
So this covers points 1 & 4
What are the options for points 2 & 3?
Kind regards,
Johan

The BO XI 3.1 environment works quite well now.
Two more questions:
1. When a user being member of the Readers group, still sees the Edit button in Webapplication - Infoview. Is it possible to hide or disable that Edit button ?
2. Is it possible to make a user only seeing a part of the data in the universe ? When a query is run with a parameter, the user ses the parameter in the left column ... but in that way a normal user can change the value of that parameter giving him the possibility to see things he should not see. Making a separate query per user is overkill and too much work to do. Is BO XI 3.1 able to offer this possibility and how ?
Rgds,
Johan
