Ignore empty Payload

Hello All,
I have a Proxy-PI-SOAP scenario. There are situations when proxy generates messages with no payload. In that situation, it throws an error in PI (RWB -> Message Monitoring -> AE) as there is no node getting generated.
I can apply the rule in Proxy code not to send the message to PI in case there is no payload, but business won't allow that.
So, I have to handle this in PI.
I can't use the dummy receiver, as it will again throw an error in case it is unable to find the receiver (I can't create a dummy receiver on the Prod box as per my Client).
I would like to know what other option I am left with? I don't want to encounter any errors in the MONI or elsewhere. How I can "stop" the processing of those messages which are having empty payload?
Just to add - I am using XSLT mapping.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Hi Abhi,
You can use the "Ignore" option in the Receiver Determination. Put a condition for the root node existence, if found send the message to the desired target else use the option "If no receiver is found" and check the radio button "Ignore".
Just to let you know that with Ignore option, the messages will still show successful in RWB.
Hope this helps.

How to ignore empty text element while using DOM to parse xml??

hi everyone,
i am using DOM to parse an xml file. But i dont know how to cinfig the DocumentBuilderFactory to ignore empty text elements.
For example, i have an xml file like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<root>
    <child>Tom</child>
    <child>Jerry</child>
</root>I used the following codes to parse:
String fname = "Tom-and-Jerry.xml";
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
factory.setIgnoringElementContentWhitespace(true);
factory.setIgnoringComments(true);
DocumentBuilder builder = domFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
// Generate a DOM tree from the DOM builder.
org.w3c.dom.Document dom = builder.parse(new File(fname));
org.w3c.dom.NodeList list = dom.getChildNodes();
for (int i=0; i<list.getLength(); i++) {
    System.out.println("Child No."+i);
    System.out.println("NodeName="+list.item(i).getNodeName());
    System.out.println("NodeType="+getType(list.item(i).getNodeType()));
    System.out.println("NodeValue="+list.item(i).getNodeValue());
    System.out.println();
}The result is not exactly what i want ---- there are 5 children in list!! The 1st, 3rd and 5th are #text and their values are all empty. Only the 2nd and the 4th are the child that i expect.
It is really troublesome to get all these silly empty texts as sub elements. I tried to get rid of them, but i failed. I just dont understand why factory.setIgnoringElementContentWhitespace(true) did not work.
Anyone can help me? thanks.
Heavy ZHENG

I just dont understand why factory.setIgnoringElementContentWhitespace(true) did not work.That only does something if the XML has a DTD that enables it to know what whitespace can be ignored and what is significant. The API documentation for the method refers you to this document:
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#sec-white-space

I need a method for ignoring empty lines

Hi to all,
i need a method for ignoring empty lines when my program reades a file like that
start of file
print "xoxox"
//ignore this line
println"xaxaxa"
//ignore this line
end of file
cheers

Are you having trouble detecting these empty lines? Or are you having trouble not processing them once you've detected them?
For the first case, you neeed to define "empty." I assumed it meant "containing no characters," and that's what the first solution shows. Your example looks like "empty" means "starts with comment characters."
For the second case, you ignore them by just not doing anything: read a line
if (it is not empty) { // by whatever criteria you define for "empty"
do something with it
}

Empty payload for idoc adapter

Hello,
I have a file to idoc scenario with an xslt mapping. Normaly after the mapping the idoc looks like:
<wpwuw>-
<idoc>...</idoc>
<idoc>...</idoc>
</wpwuw>
Because of the business requirements in some cases the mapping should not generate an idoc. That means I have to create an empty payload.
The problem is that the idoc adapter creates an error for all kinds of empty messages.
a) empty payload
b) empty trading segment ( <wpwuw></wpwuw> )
c) empty idoc segment ( <wpwuw>-<idoc/>-</wpwuw> )
Any idea what I can do not to get an error from the idoc adapter ?
Regards Bernd

HI
instead of creating empty paylaod. Use conditional(enhanced for mapping & standard for condition on Xpath) receiver determination for this and dont generate IDOC for the specified conditions.
Thanks

SOLVED: SPA2102, WRP400, SPA8000, SRP521 and SRP521-U FAX NSE fails with empty Payload c0000000

Hi Experts.
In my SIP network there is a Cisco PGW 9.6(1) used as PSTN gateway. PGW call agent controls many Cisco AS5400 via MGCP. We use Linksys SPA2102 to connect fax and modem devices.
Both PGW and AS5400 are configured to support FAX passthrough upspeeding via NSE event. Also SPA2102 devices are configured to support FAX passthrough NSE.
After many tests and debugs I see that SPA2102 doesn't recognize NSE event sent from AS5400.
From debug and wireshark traces you can see that AS5400 sends NSE 192 event correctly (see attachments).
So I've try to compare this scenario with a working one. The only difference is in the Payload content of NSE messages.
With AS5400 the Payload is c0000000. I think tath this is an empty payload while with different gateway or ATA the payload is c096c4e. In this last case SPA detects correctly NSE message.
Is this a BUG of SPA2102?
Thanks.

Hi experts, I updated this post after several months because we need information about the status of this issue.
Now we are using the firmware 2.00.21 for WRP400 (a beta) and the firmware 5.2.10 for SPA2102 devices.
No news about next release of WRP400 and the last software for SPA 5.2.12 doesn't fix this issue.
Now we must take a decision for buying thousand CPE for current year. If this issue will not fixed during this month we will be forced to change products and vendor !!!
I hope in a your positive response.
Regards.

Enhanced Interface Determination gives Empty Payload

Hi,
I am using Enhanced Interface Determination in my scenario.
1:3 Message Types(Interfaces).
The thing is that split occurs, but after Message Mapping I get empty Payloads..
I am using External Definitions instead of Message types.
Another question: Can there be multiple dynamic confgiurations during splits. i.e one Dynamic Configuration for each message split.
Note: testing the Interface mapping from IR with payload from MONI gives proper output.
Regards,
Sundar.

Hi All,
I copied the entire XML which i used for testing in Interface Mapping which i should not have....
I gave as
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:Messages xmlns:ns0="http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge">
   <ns0:Message1>
      <ns1:SAP_HR_MT xmlns:ns1="http://com.cognizant/sapr3/all">

            ....         </Dependent>
         <Coverage>
            ....         </Coverage>
      </ns1:SAP_HR_MT>
   </ns0:Message1>
</ns0:Messages>
But the input should have been
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
      <ns1:SAP_HR_MT xmlns:ns1="http://com.cognizant/sapr3/all">
         <Participant>....

         <Coverage>
            ....         </Coverage>
      </ns1:SAP_HR_MT>
now the output is perfectly coming....:-)

Ignore Empty Artboards?

I am using a slightly modified version of this script to export icons.
http://www.ericson.net/content/2011/06/export-illustrator-layers-andor-artboards-as-pngs-a nd-pdfs/
Say I have a document with three artboards named @1x, @2x, @3x, I am using the script to export each layer * each artboard to create my different size icons. Now the problem is that not every layer has artwork on every artboard. Is there a way to ignore empty artboards per layer? or At least how can I tell if an artboard is blank when a specific layer is selected?

Variable Substituition throwing an error for empty payload

Hi All,
I am using variable substituition in the receiver file adapter...
Everything is working fine and the variable substituion is working and creating a file whenever the payload in the mapping has the filenode field for variable substituition.
Now based on some condition the payload will be empty in the mapping then no file to be created...
For this i used IGNORE in the receiver adapter BUT still an empty file is being created, this is because the payload will have the filenode field ...
Now my question is how can we stop in creating an empty file...
Even i tried using Dynamic Variable in the mapping but that to throws an error...
Please suggest me on how to solve this...
Regards,
sridhar

Make sure that the node is not created itself in the mapping so that you will not have the issue.
IS that what you are looking for?

How do I have Adobe Acrobat 9.0 calculate the minimum of 10 fields BUT ignore empty fields?

How do I have Adobe Acrobat 9.0 calculate the minimum of 10 fields BUT ignore the field if it is empty? Currently it counts blanks as 0 so when it comes up with the minimum it will always show 0 unless all 10 fields have values in them.

You could loop through the fields and add the non-blank values to an array, and use the Math.min method to get the minimum. Here's an example custom Calculate script:
// Custom calculate script
(function () {
    // Array to hold non-blank field values
    var fa = [];
    // Loop through the fields...
    for (var i = 1; i < 11; i += 1) {
        // ...get the current field value, as string...
        var v = getField("text1." + i).valueAsString;
        // ...if not blank, add value to the array, as a number
        if (v) fa.push(+v);
    // Set this field's value to the minimum value in the array, otherwise blank
    event.value = fa.length > 0 ? Math.min.apply(null, fa) : "";
This assumes the fields are named "text1.1", "text1.2", ..."text1.10" and that they're numeric. This type of field naming simplifies the code, so it would be good to use something similar and adjust the getField statement to match.

PI 7.0 connecting to WebSphere MQ - Empty payload by reciever channel

I have PI 7.0 connecting to WMQ 6.0 using JMS adapter.
The scenario in technical terms is a IDoc to JMS scenario. For one of the message flows, PI delivered an empty message to the MQ queue.
Having checked the audit logs and the MessagingSystem etc, there were no clues why this happened.
In the Message monitoring, on the content tab , in the drop down, i could only see the SOAP envelope. The message content wasnt available in the drop down at all.
Any clues why this may have happened?
There is no content conversion and we are delivering XML to the queues.

hi,
In the Message monitoring, on the content tab , in the drop down, i could only see the SOAP envelope. The message content wasnt available in the drop down at all.
Ok, but here you see the message received by your JMS, so the interest is limited. You need to compare your source message (idoc) to your target message (JMS). here's how to check.
Go to SXMB_MONI, select your message and then "detail" button.
In the left tree, open the FIRST level called "Inbound Message (CENTRAL)". And under this level check your Payload (should be your Idoc sent by ECC).
Then, in the same left tree, go to a level before "Call adapter", for instance in "XML validation Outbound Channel Request". Under this level, check your Payload (that should the XML sent to your JMS). Note: do not go in "response" level, because there is certainly no payload.
What do you have ? does your target payload is empty ? (certainly yes)
if yes, that's mean it's your mapping that something is wrong. Certainly a bad context management, due to a missing "SpliByValue" or something like that. And you certainly have one target message with the content of two idoc segment, whereas this one is empty.
To know which mapping link is bad, in SXMB_MONI, download the source message (so under level "Inbound Message (CENTRAL)", and test it i your Message Mapping.

FileAdapter Write file with empty payload always error

Hi All ,
I run on 10.1.3.3.1 with patch Patch 7375080 only esb not have bpel.I have to use webservice for verify data.
and response with set of objects.
I have 2 important questions about write file with FileAdapter.
1. I want to not create file if not have error from validate data but
with this xsl tranform if I uncomment when value of condition is 'N' that will error cause single line payload.
<xsl:for-each select="/tns:populateYFRIResponseElement/tns:result/tns:wrongLines">

<imp1:Child-Element>
<imp1:FrameNo>
<xsl:value-of select="concat('"',tns:frameNo,'"')"/>
</imp1:FrameNo>
<imp1:EngineNo>
<xsl:value-of select="concat('"',tns:engineNo,'"')"/>
</imp1:EngineNo>
</imp1:Child-Element>

</xsl:for-each>
but if I comment if condition 'Y' FileAdapter create csv files with empty like "","" .
2.
I must write log file with FileAdapter . I want to append file so I add attribute Append=true
to wsdl
<jca:operation
LogicalDirectory="outgoingfile"
InteractionSpec="oracle.tip.adapter.file.outbound.FileInteractionSpec"
FileNamingConvention="YFRI%yyMMdd%.log"
NumberMessages="1"
Append = "true"
>
but when run that throws errors cause properties append not found.
I view class FileInteractionSpec that have append properties .I very confuse.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi
Thank for good answer.I am newbies in esb so I don't know that have routing expression before.
I'm so glad your answer very helpful before routing but same question 1 if I have detail must not write data like below

,import file name YFRI20090616170202.DAT at Tue Jun 16 17:04:40 GMT+07:00 2009 with number of data is 12 correct line is 12
"D",0,0,
YFRI.txt,import file name YFRI.txt at Tue Jun 16 19:53:48 GMT+07:00 2009 with number of data is 2 error line is 2
"D",1,3,MTOCCode:ZE8839LZ SAA is not have in DB
"D",2,3,MTOCCode:ZE8839LZ SAA is not have in DB
with

</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
ESB will display error payload If import not have verify error detail so I have to write 'D',0,0 (Detail,Line,Column).
In this situation how am I to do ?
In question 2 .Now I can append with
<jca:operation
LogicalDirectory="outgoingfile"
InteractionSpec="oracle.tip.adapter.file.outbound.FileInteractionSpec"
FileNamingConvention="YFRI%yyMMdd%.log"
NumberMessages="1"
OpaqueSchema="false"
Append="true"

</jca:operation>

Ignore new Payload Type in RTPManager

Hi,
Im working on a project who receives sound from a cell phone. The cell phone send Audio trough the SIP Server in G711 ALAW, with a Payload of 8.
Following this tutorial:
[http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/CustomPayload.html]
I achieve to register the new type of payload, and decode the audio without any problem.
The problem comes when the SIP Server sends (from time to time) a new packet, with a Payload 13 (Comfort Noise). I want to just ignore this packet, but the RTPManager send me a message saying that I dont have the Payload 13 registered, and STOP the RTPManager.
I could register this new type of Payload, but if I dont know just how to ignore it!.
Any help? Thanks!
PS: Im thinking about creating my own RTP implementation, do you think it worths?

I could register this new type of Payload, but if I dont know just how to ignore it!.You could try just
rtpManager.addFormat(null, 8);or
Format myFormat = new Format("none");
rtpManager.addFormat(myFormat, 8);And just ignore whatever events occur when those packets are recieved...

Ignore empty rows at end

I have a csv file, which has empty lines at the end.
My controlfile has a default sequence, due to which it is uploading all the empty lines at the end.
How can i tell sql*loader to ignore these lines ?
load data append into table Test_Data_staging
fields terminated by "," optionally enclosed by '"' trailing nullcols
SERIAL_NUMBER SEQUENCE(COUNT,1),
TEST_DATA_VERSION,

Hi,
you can add a when clause (WHEN firstcolumn != BLANKS), here is an example:
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:\Temp\Book1.csv'
BADFILE 'C:\Temp\Book1.bad'
DISCARDFILE 'C:\Temp\Book1.dsc'
TRUNCATE
INTO TABLE "XTEST"
WHEN (col1 != BLANKS)
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"' AND '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(COL1,
COL2,
COL3)or if you want:
LOAD DATA APPEND INTO TABLE TEST_DATA_STAGING
WHEN (TEST_DATA_VERSION != BLANKS)
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ","
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
SERIAL_NUMBER SEQUENCE(COUNT,1),
TEST_DATA_VERSION,
ENVIRONMENT,
TEST_DATA_OWNER
{code}

Query on MultiProvider by ignoring empty columns

Hi Experts,
I have a MultiProvider which contains 2 InfoCubes. InfoCube 1 (IC 1) contains Transport Request (TR) Status information, IC 2 contains Transport Request Object List information. Both ICs are related by the TR IDs. Not every TR has a Object List (better: Objects). Therefore, in IC 1 TRs exist that are not listed in IC 2.
This leads to empty columns in the MultiProvider due to the union operation which is processed on both ICs. In particular the object related columns (object name, type, etc) are empty, if the TR does have a status information but at the same time without having any object listing, e. g. :
TR ID - Status - Object Name - Object Type
T123 - Successfull - # - #
(# = Empty)
When executing a query on this MultiProvider which counts the number of Objects I get the correct result, when NOT reporting on the TR ID level. However, if I execute a query which counts the number of Objects per Transport Request (TR ID), I get at least a "1" for EVERY transport request even if there does not exist ANY object within that TR ID (see example above).
So my question: is there any way to ignore TR IDs when no object information exist for this Transport Request? Thus, the query would only report an object count > 0 if at least one object is associated to a certain TR ID.
Many thanks for your help!
Best regards
Tobias

I chose
Exception Agg: Counter for All Detailed Values That Are Not Zero, NUll, or Error
Ref Char: Object Name
Activated Calc after Aggr.
Did not change anything. I still get a table which shows the TR ID (eg T123), Object Name (Empty = #) and Object Count = 1
I don't get why empty cells are part of the calculation even if the excep. aggr. is configured as described above...
Any further ideas on that?
Many thanks!
