Input output parameters

Hi, I don't know if this message should be posted in the Test Stand or LabView forum.
I
need to call a LabView VI from within TestStand which will update a
station global upon exitting. How do I specify input parameters into my
VI and return parameters out?
I'm sure there must be documentaion somewhwre on how to do this and it must be fairly straight forward but I can't seem to be able to find it or figure it out.
Solved!

When you add a LabVIEW step, In the step settings window, you will see something like the image below once you have picked the VI. To assign TestStand variables to the VI's inputs or outputs, click on the 'f(x) button and browse to your TestStand variable. For inputs, make sure you unselect the 'Default' box.
Hi Dennis, thanks for your response. I do have quite a bit of Test
Stand experience so calling a VI isn't an issue for me. However, I have
very limited experience with LabView and am not sure how to specify
input and return parameters to and from a VI i built. I've attached a
screen shot of my current VI. I would like to pass in a refernece to an
error container and return the platform selected from the combobox.

Function module to list out a report's input/output parameters

Hi experts,
I'd like to know if there is a function module which can list out all the input and output parameters (variables, tables, etc.) by giving the report name as input.
If not, please suggest a way to find out the input/output parameters.
Regards,
Ancy

Well, they're not input/output parameters, and really you shouldn't refer to them as such. A variable is simple what it says - a variable. You could, I suppose, refer to data sources. But then, the report could be getting data from a set of function modules.
So my assumption is correct, you are talking about a where-used list.
>Check out tables like CROSS. To find other useful tables, put an SQL trace on, do the where used, and see what tables are hit.

GP callable object (Visual Composer FLASH)u2013 update input/output parameters

Dear Sirs,
I have a callable object which is based on a Visual Composer Flash iview. In this iview I have two input parameters and two output parameters, and these can been seen in the callable object.
However, if I add another input or output parameter deploy the model and change and active the callable object the new changes are not picked up.
Has anyone else encountered the same problem?
best regards,
Jørgen

Hello Nick,
You gave me the answer I did not want :=), however I think you are right.
This is not a very good solution by SAP and I think I will open an OSS to get a final answer from SAP on they are going to solve this.
You can not delete all the callable objects in a process whenever you need a new parameter.

How to execute function takes user defined type parameters as input &output

Hi All,
I want to execute a function which takes user defined type as input & output parameters. But i don't know how to execute that function in pl/sql statements.
CREATE TYPE T_INPUT AS OBJECT
USER          VARCHAR2(255),
APPLICATION     VARCHAR2(255),
REFERENCE          VARCHAR2(30)
) NOT FINAL;
CREATE TYPE T_ID UNDER T_INPUT
E_ID                    VARCHAR2 (50),
CODE                    VARCHAR2 (3),
SERVICE                    VARCHAR2 (10),
C_TYPE                    VARCHAR2 (1)
) NOT FINAL;

Here
1. T_ID is an input parameter which is a combination of T_ID + T_INPUT,
2. T_INFO is an output parameter which is a combination of T_INFO + T_OUTPUT.
Here i'll assign the T_ID values.
--- T_INPUT values
USER          = "admin";
APPLICATION     = "test";
REFERENCE     = "null";
---- T_ID values
E_ID               = "1234";
CODE               = "TTT";
SERVICE               = "NEW";
C_TYPE = "P";
Now i want to execute Get_Dtls function with T_ID,T_INFO parameters in pl/sql statements.
I want to catch the E_INFO value from T_INFO type.
How can i Do this ?
Pls Help. Thanxs in advance.
Anil.

Hi,
In form interface u have to define the fields or tables which all are u passing from the program.
In the glabal definitions you can define your types for internal tables or other purposes in 'TYPES' tab, then declare the global datas your internal tables, work areas etc.
write ur select statement and othe codings there in initializations, define subroutines in form routines,
then, u cna use loops , command lines for additional purpose in each pages.

Self as an input/output argument

Hi,
does anyone know if self is a valid argument to a method that defines its
parameter as input/output?
The reason I ask is that I am trying to move an application from 2.0.F.2 to
3.0.C.0, and the TOOL compiler gives me an error that it can't find a
method with a signature of "x" and it has methods with signatures of "x",
"y" and "z". The only clue I have is that the compiler advises: "Check that
any values passed to output or input output parameters are values that can
be changed like variables or attributes."
I might add that I personally would not be using self as an argument to
input output parameters because of my C++ heritage. Passing "this" to a
member function that might change the value of "this" is not a great idea!
However, this is the code that I have to work on, warts and all, so any
help is gratefully received.
TIA
Nick.

Just out of curiosity,
What are some other such read-only attributes that are coming with
R3? That way, those of us still coding in R2 will know to avoid using
those as output parameters, and thus avoid having our code broken
when we move to R3.
Thanks!

Subject: Re: self as an input/output argument
Nick,
R3 does not allow you to change the value of self. It is now considered a
read-only variable. Read-only variables may not be passed to methods using
output parameters. R2 used to, but then the C++ compiler would, of course,
choke on it.
It was a convenient way to make the compiler fail if you needed to,
though....

Email End-Point Input/Output missing

I'm trying to configure an email endpoint but I am unable to configure the input/output parameters. I found the below thread which sounds exactly like my problmem except the solution does not work. If I go to AdminUI, I do not see how to change it from variable to literal. Any other ideas?
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2629358#2629358
btw, I'm using LC 9.0 SP2.

Hi
The issue referred to in your link was actually resolved in SP1 for 9.0.
Since you are using SP2, you should not be required to change anything in adminui.
Did you mark your variable as "input"?
If you do this, then you should see and Inputs/Outputs tab on the email startpoint.
If you then add %SUBJECT% in your Input data filter, this should not require you to do anything else.
Once deployed, if you then look in the adminui, this input should appear as Variable not literal.

How to allow multiple output parameters in a user-defined service operation???

I have creating a self-defined service operation “LDAPAddUser” to connect to LDAP server to create user accounts. I want to get 2 output parameters after executing the operation. One is the result (Boolean data type) and one is the error message (String data type). However, since Java only support one return value in a method, it seems that only one output parameter can be returned. May I have the suggestion so that multiple parameters can be supported in this case? Here is the extracted code
In Java program,
public Boolean addUser(String url, String aName)
In file "component.xml",
     <operation name="addUser" method="addUser" orchestrateable="true" anonymous-access="true">
<hint>Add a new user</hint>
     <input-parameter name="url" type="java.lang.String" required="true" title="LDAP URL">
     </input-parameter>
          <input-parameter name="aName" type="java.lang.String" required="true" title="Admin Login Name">
     </input-parameter>
          <output-parameter name="Result" title="Result" type="java.lang.Boolean">
          </output-parameter>
Besides the boolean return value, I want to get another return value (string data type). Any suggestion ?

I've returned multiple values to LiveCycle by using a complex object as an intermediatory.
For example if I need to return two strings (firstName and lastName), I'll first build a single class (name) with two string attributes (private String firstName; private String LastName) and add getters and setters to my "name" class for each. My service class method will return an object of type "name".
for example public name mymethod(String GUID, String username, String password).......
Then in the component.xml you can return the two strings as long as you use the binding type "Bean":
<output-parameter name="firstName" title="First Name" binding-type="Bean" property="firstName">
                    </output-parameter>
<output-parameter name="lastName" title="Last Name" binding-type="Bean" property="lastName">
                     </output-parameter>

ST22 Short Dump DATASET_WRITE_ERROR Error text: "Input/output error" Error

Dear All,
Please kindly help. I have the following error. Is it possibility due to disk full?
DATASET_WRITE_ERROR
An error occurred when writing to the file
"/capps/AP0/edi/CCM/565500_001105200_00126_20080715_042803.tmp".
Error text: "Input/output error"
Error code: 5
Many thanks in advance,
Yan

Hi,
Check the return code of the OPEN DATASET. May be autorizations for writing might not be there.
If the file is written partially it would be due to memory problem.
Also check the OPEN DATASET Parameters if they are correct.
Hope this helps.

How to call a (catalog) stored procedure directly in a xsodata file with in/output parameters

I am new to XS but i managed to enable a table through xsodata:
service namespace "sap.hana.democontent.epm" {
"AA465342"."TMP_HENK" as "TMP_HENK";
But now i am looking for code that can call a stored procedure that has 2 input- and 3 output parameters.... who can help me out with this?

Hi Vivek, thanks for the quick response!
I already found that blog, but it does not completely answer my question. i am struggling to get my content procedure working. call the R (catalog) stored procedure:
the code
/********* Begin Procedure Script ************/
BEGIN
call "AA465342"."MO_PP_SENTIMENT"(SP_IN,SP_OUT) with overview;
END;
/********* End Procedure Script ************/
where it goes wrong:
: Only table variable is allowed in input parameter in a nested call
I have defined SP_IN and SP_OUT....
Can someone give me a clue what i have to change?

Output Parameters - BLS Transaction

Hi,
i set an input and output parameter in BLS transaction. Output parameter mapped with write_file.success. i call this transaction via xacute query. i am sending input parameters successfully. the file created. but i want to know at front end via writefile_success. how to call this output parameter via applet? i tried document.<my applet>.getQueryObject().getParam(1). but it shows no object like this. how to do it?
-senthil

Hi Senthil,
If you need a output parameter of a bls from front end.You need to create and Xacute query for that transaction and in the html add the query as a iCommand applet and after executing the applet,Use the line below to get output parameters of the BLS.
document.iCommandAppletName.getValue(COLNUMBER,ROWNUMBER)

Output parameters for sqlj stored procs ?

is it possible to store a sqlj proc in DB which can be translated to a pl/sql procs with OUTPUT parameters ?
how is it possible ?
if not, how can i bypass this problem ?
thanks for answers..
[email protected]

When you write a Java stored procedure that is called with OUT or IN OUT parameteres from the PL/SQL signature, then the OUT or IN OUT arguments must have an array signature in Java.
For example, if you want to pass a Java int IN OUT from a Java method, then the method accepts an int[]. The first element (at index 0) holds the input value, and the same element must be set for the returned output value.
Is this what you were wondering about?

Output parameters always return null when ExecuteNonQuery - No RefCursor

I am trying to call a procedure through ODP that passes in one input parameter and returns two (non-RefCursor) VARCHAR2 output parameters. I am calling the procedure using ExecuteNonQuery(); however, my parameters always return null. When I run the procedure outside of ODP, such as with SQLPlus or SQL Navigator, the output parameters are populated correctly. For some reason, there appears to be a disconnect inside of ODP. Is there a way to resolve this?
Anyone have this problem?
Here is the basic code:
===========================================================
//     External call of the class below
DBNonCursorParameterTest Tester = new DBNonCursorParameterTest();

//     The class and constructor that calls the procedure and prints the results.

          //     general Name (Varchar2) and a Legal Name (Varchar2) from one table with those three fields.

               //     Create the input parameter and the output cursor parameter to retrieve data; assign a value to the input parameter;
          //     then create the parameter collection and add the parameters.
          OracleParameter pBPID               = new OracleParameter("p_bpid",               OracleDbType.Int32,          ParameterDirection.Input);

=========================================================
Other things to note:
I have no problems with returning RefCursors; they work fine. I just don't want to use RefCursors when they are not efficient, and I want to have the ability to return output parameters when I only want to return single values and/or a value from an insert/update/delete.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Callable object Output parameters does not show up if I use VC

I have a VC view. Finally the output of a form is fed as input to a stored procedure data service. The stored procedure data mode has 2 output ports:
OUTPUT
RESULT
The value of the result of the stored procedure is present only in the RESULT port.
When I make a Callable object pointing to the Portal iView of thois VC view, I do not get the output parameter that comes in RESULT in the Output Parameters of the Callable object
Any help ?
