How to view the content (contained objects) of transport files without importing?

Hi,
we do often receive transport files (DATA and CODILE) from third parties.
If is is done correctly the supplier of the transport files devliver also additional information about the detailed content of the transport, e.g object lists as plain text file, so that we are informed which objekts will be imported in advance.
But some suppliers don't. Or we want only check, if additional info and real transport content match.
So for that reason I am looking for a possible way to view the object list of such transports without adding it to the import queue or importing it to a sandbox system or even add it to the import buffer..
Most likely this should be done by a standalone tool (on Windows) or a tool running on SAP accessing the transportfiles (preference: stored only on the client PC and not added to the transport directory)
So my question is: Is there any tool that can extract the object list from the transport files and display it?
Helst regards
Helmut Fischer

Helmut,
If you don't have access to the server console, it might be possible to 'trick' tp into working from a workstation, but I wouldn't bet on it. You'd have to fake up a profile for it. I haven't tried this.
Peering into the contents of a delivered transport file would be something that your Basis team would typically do. My suggestion is to work with them, either to use tp command-line option from the server console, or if that's not reasonable, then yes, go ahead and add it to the import queue of one of your sandbox systems. You can always delete it from the queue again later. If you don't actually import it, it isn't going to hurt anything.
To do any of these options is going to require some level of filesystem access to your transport host, as you need to copy the two files that make up the transport there. You need to put the 'K' file into \usr\sap\trans\cofiles and the 'R' file into \usr\sap\trans\data. Then, you can either use the tp command-line tool, or you can go into STMS, go into the import queue of any system in the transport domain (so a sandbox is fine), and use Extras... Other Requests... Add and type in the transport request ID. Yes, this adds some entries about the transport into a few tables, but it doesn't actually import the transport, and it doesn't change anything about your system. It just allows the transport to show up as importable in the queue, and that will make it so that you can read the object list of the transport. Then, if you decide not to import it, you can delete it from the queue, and your system is back to the way it was before. Also, doing this will not put the transport into any other system's queue. Even if you import the transport (into a sandbox system), it won't show up in any other system's queue until you forward it.

Matt

OOM PermGen... How to view the content of permgen

I have a pretty big java application running on windows and linux (redhat) using JBoss as the application server.
The application has been running for a long time without issues and now, with the end of a new release of our software, under heavy load, we are running out of perm gen space.
What I would like to see is a tool that lets me view the content of the perm gen space so I can determine why we are using so much memory.
I am aware of jmap -permstat (on linux only) that should let you view some info about permgem but for me, jmap connects to the java process and never comes back. I tried a profiler (jprofiler) and again, I can't find info about what is occupying the permgen memory space.
Can someone suggest tools, or methods to get to the content of the permgen space so I can determine what our issue is?
Here are our startup options; as you can see it has been tuned quite a bit for maximum performance for our usage patterns.
I would appreciate any help chasing down this issue.

I'm sorry, but your sister, unless she had already turned on the "Find my iPhone" feature and the person who took the phone has not disabled it, is out of luck. She should report the theft to local police authorities, including the serial number of her iPhone. While her experience is unfortunate, there are good reasons why Apple cannot do anything else about it.
I hope she gets her phone back.
Best of luck.

How to view the change immediately after a java file is modified without restarting server or redeploy?

          Hi All,
          How to view the change immediately after a java file that is used in jsp is modified
          without restarting server or redeploy?
          Moreover, it is better to keep the original session.
          Any suggestion is appreciated.
          Kammau


          Hi,
          In order to have a new version of a java class, the current classloader must be
          deleted and a new one created. This is what redeployment does. I believe that
          this is more of an issue with Sun's implementation of classloaders. You could
          ask BEA support (719.232.7878) and see if they have any plans to periodically
          check jar files to see if java class file timestamps and destroy and re-create
          classloaders on the fly.
          1) You will still have to accept the performance hit of destroying classloaders
          and creating new ones. There isn't any way around that.
          2) I would think you would want to have more explicit control in production and
          integration anyway.
          You can redeploy applications from the command line (script) file not just the
          console.
          Hope this helps,
          pat

How to export the text edit data to excel file without splitting the data in excel file?

how to export the text edit data to excel file without splitting the data in excel file?
I have a requirement in SAP HR where in the appraiser can add comments in the area given and can export that to excel file. Currently the file is getting exported but the comments getting split into deifferent rows.
I want the entire comment to be fit in one row.
Please help.
Thank you

Hi,
if your text edit value is stored in 'lv_string' variable.
then before exporting the value to excel you have to remove CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE
that is '#' from the variable lv_string.
for that use code some thing like this.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE in lv_string WITH space.
I think this will do the trick.

How to view the content of Documents attached in Transaction FB03.

Hi Gurus,
I want to view / download the content of an attachment, attached in transaction FB03.
I am not able to view them directly due to some application error.
I need to check whether a document which is in the attachment list is having any data or not.
If there is any FM to do this, please let me know.
Regards,

I do not know the answer to that. But you can use ssltap (More info in [http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/tools/ssltap.html|http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/tools/ssltap.html]) to see the exact request and response being sent to and from the server.

How To View The Contents Of A Node?

I have retrieved a node using Oracle Business Components for Java's writeXML method, and I'd like to view its contents.
I have tried to append it to a document (so that I can use xmlOutput.output(document, System.out) to view the node) using appendChild(node), but I get this error:
org.apache.crimson.tree.DomEx: WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: That node doesn't belong in this document.
I have also tried to import the node using importNode(node, boolean) but I get this error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Node is not a rg.apache.crimson.tree implementation.
Lastly, I have tried this:
javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMSource domSource = new javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMSource(xmlNode);
javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory txnfac = javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory.newInstance();
File xslfile = new File("C:\\xml\\testoutput.xsl");
StreamSource xslsource = new StreamSource(xslfile);
javax.xml.transform.Transformer txn = txnfac.newTransformer(xslsource);
txn.transform(domSource, new StreamResult(new FileOutputStream("C:\\xml\\result.xml")));
but then I get this error:
java.lang.AbstractMethodError
void org.apache.xalan.transformer.TransformerImpl.transform(javax.xml.transform.Source, javax.xml.transform.Result)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
I am using FileDownload UI element in the ADOBE interactive to download the content to a PDF file.
Please help me how to download content to a PDF file.
Thanks,
Archana.

hi Archana,
you will get the byte format of the pdf form the pdf source attribute , create a resource using that byte data of type pdf as following
IWDResource iwdResource = WDResourceFactory.createResource(wdcontext.currentContextElement().getPdfSource(), "resource name", WDWebResourceType.PDF);
create a context element say fileresource of type iwdresource.
set it's value as following.
    wdContext.currentContextElement().setFileResource(iwdResource);
and do the following code on the action of the download button.
public void downloadFile( )
    //@@begin createExternalPopup()
    // get the resource from the context
    IWDResource resource = wdContext.currentContextElement().getFileResource();
    //create an external window. A download dialog should appear
    IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow(resource.getUrl(WDFileDownloadBehaviour.AUTO.ordinal()) ,"Title");
    //@@end

I have an external hard drive connected via usb, how can I view the contents?

I'm new to Mac... I have an external hard drive, I plugged it in to the usb port but don't know how to view the contents. What do I do?

Open Finder (by clicking on the icon int he Dock) and your external USB disk should show up in the left pane under "Devices".
Note that it has to be formatted for Mac if you want to read and write data.

Import Scenario from BPR - how to view the Version after import

On SOLAR01 when you import scenarios from the BPR, how can you view the version of the Products that were imported? Sometimes in the BPR there are several versions available to import for a particular product.
Once you have imported those business processes, how can you see the version that is tied to the one you imported?

How to view the DDL script prior to object deployment in OWB 10g R2?

How to view the DDL script prior to object deployment in OWB 10g R2?
Here is what I' looking for: in 10gR2, let's say I've built dimension X, but it's not deployed yet. I've selected one of the deployment options, let's say: "Deploy to Catalog only". Now, I'd like to see a DDL script that will be executed at the deployment time. Where can I find this script? What screen? What menu?
Thanks,
vr

Viewing the Scripts
After you have generated scripts for your target objects, you can open the scripts and
view the code. Warehouse Builder generates the following types of scripts:
■ DDL scripts: Creates or drops database objects.
■ SQL*Loader control files: Extracts and transports data from file sources.
■ ABAP scripts: Extracts and loads data from SAP systems.
To view the generated scripts:
1. From the Generation Results window, select an object in the navigation tree on the
left of the Generation Results dialog.
2. Select the Scripts tab on the right of this dialog.
The Scripts tab contains a list of the generated scripts for the object you selected.
3. Select a specific script and click the View Code button.

Marcos
