JDeveloper SOA Expression Builder

Hi
I am not sure if this is the appropiate forum for this question or not but its the only forum related to JDeveloper.
I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.5.0 with the soa extension pack installed. When I access the Expression Builder from an assign activity, it takes at least a minute
for the expression part of the windows to return and become editable. This is true regardless of whether it is a new expression I am creating or editing an
existing expression.
JDeveloper is installed on windows 7 64-bit edition and is configured to use 64-bit Java. Below are the options that are turned on from ide.conf
AddVMOption -Xmx4000M
AddVMOption -Xms1024M
AddVMOption -Xverify:none
and below are the options for jdev.conf
AddVMOption -XX:MaxPermSize=768M
AddVMOption -Xbootclasspath/p:../lib/lwawt.jar
AddVMOption -Dsun.awt.keepWorkingSetOnMinimize=true
AddVMOption -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true
AddVMOption -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError
AddVMOption -Doracle.jdeveloper.webservice.showAllOwsmPolicyTypes=false
AddVMOption -Doracle.jdeveloper.webservice.hidePropertyOverride=false
AddVMOption -Dsun.awt.disablegrab=true
AddVMOption -XX:+UseCompressedOops
Thanks

Hi,
this part of the product is added as an extension by the SOA team. I suggest to try the SOA forum SOA Suite to see if someone ran into the same issue

JDeveloper BPEL Expression Builder : getFaultAsString() not found

Problem:
In the JDeveloper BPEL Expression Builder Dialog (Assign activity) I see only 4 functions under " Advanced Functions" menu.
1. created-nodeset-xxxx
2. generate-guid
3. lookup-xml
4. parseXML.
I expect functions like getFaultAsString() to be there. Without i I can not get the fault string. Can you please help ?

Why is ADF Bindings node not displayed in Expression Builder window?

Hello,
I'm using Oracle JDeveloper Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.1.0, and I've created a Fusion Web Application and I've configured ADF Authentication and Security for my web project, using the provided wizard.
On a certain page, I've placed a Go Link component, and I'm trying to edit the Text and Destination Property using EL Expressions. When I open the Expression Builder window all I can see are the following nodes: ADF Controller Objects, ADF Managed Beans, JSF Managed Beans and JSP Objects, but no ADF Bindings. I need to access the securityContext properties, and from what I've read in B31974-03, I need ADF Bindings.
Also, I've tryied using the search field from the Expression Builder windows, without any luck.
This is probably a newbie problem, but I really can't figure it out. Please help.
Bogdan.

Hi,
maybe your problem is that you don't have created pageDef related with your page. Try right click on your page and Go To Page Definition. It will create the related pageDef if it does not exist.
Hope this helps

How to user #{or} in expression builder

Dear All,
am using jdeveloper 11.1.1.3
I have an input text in an adf page , I need to disable this input text depending on two bindings with or operator--> if one of them is true then disable the input text...
If this possible and if yes then how ?
I noticed the Operands in the expression builder popup but i dont know how to use it
Regards,
Lama

You can use 'and' and 'or' instead of '&&' and '||', which is especially nice for '&&' as you would have to use '& amp ;& amp ;' (without spaces) if typed into source of the jspx directly.

XPath Expression Builder Performance after Oracle FMW PS4 Upgrade

Hi,
Is there anyone out there on OFMW PS4 and facing performance issues with the BPEL Assign 'XPath Expression Builder'. We have a scenario where the BPEL process has to reference many schemas (arnd. 50+) from referenced Partner Link WSDLs and its own composite. The Expression Builder seems to be very very slow (takes minutes to load) as compared PS2 (only seconds).
Are we alone on this one / anyone has any experience/fix/workaround?
BTW,
We've unchecked the "Validate" check box from SOA Preferences, still no luck.
Regards,
Srinath.

11g TP3 [ER] Offline database / Expression builder for naming conventions

I would be nice to have a way to define some project specific standards for name generated automatically by jdev.
In big projects its really not fun to update each foreign key and foreign key attributes to be conform to some standards.
Why not using an expression builder with regular expression to build the standard form of name generated by JDev and set the expression in the project properties.

I am able to fix this issue. After a series of R & D I was able to find that the root cause is %APPDATA%\jdeveloper. Deleting the relevant directory will solve this issue. In fact, I tried to delete the entire jdeveloper directory under %APPDATA% and the jdev 11.1.1.7 form generation issue got resolved. Those who find "referential integrity" issue may follow this approach.
This solution also applies to this thread

Expression builder in BPEL

Im trying to manipulate a file name at runtime. Right now I have the inbound header mapped to the outbound header so that the file gets to its destination with a dynamic filename. We are picking up multiple files Ex. KL* and the customer wants the same file name as was picked up. So anyway now they want it picked up as a .dat file and dropped off as .txt
I am lokoing through the expression builder via jdeveloper and see there are many funtions. From the looks of it there is something to modify this extension i want to change but im having a hard time finding one or documentation explaining what each of these functions do
any help please

Well assuming the below would be my Xpath statement because there is no statement in here that says read a specific file.txt it is read in in dynamic what i mean is we say pick up DEF*.dat so we want any DEF.dat to get read in but at the same time we want the original name stay on the file as it gets processed. So we may have DEF123, DEF456, DEF789 get read in but they will keep their file names as going through
<variable name="Inbound_Head" messageType="ns3:InboundHeader_msg"/>
So first off when creating variables i never knew there was a way to make a "temp variable" so if I could create a "temp" one then
concat(substring(bpws:getVariableData('gdotltest.dat')), 1, string-length(ns3:InboundHeader_msg('gdotl.dat')) -3 '.dat')
ok and then when you are saying
"First save your fileName " Are you saying the name as the file name i want as in right now it is gdotltest.dat
are you saying assign the variable for ns3:InboundHeader_msg as 'gdotltest.dat
I am sort of seeing where you want to to go with this just help me out a little more if you could
So i got this variable that is associated with DEF*.dat filename right
Ex. ns3:InboundHeader_msg = DEF*.dat
So then i want to create a temp variable name something like ns7:InboundHeader_msg_TempVar <--------- just saying for example correct me on any syntax error and im going to want to associate this variable i made up with DEF*.txt so that when my bpel interacts with this hmmmmmmm thinking about this now how will this keep the dynamic file naming convention still going if now im associating a new variable with a file coming throguht that is suppose to keeps it s name ? Sorry to sound confusing but explain one last time how we are keep the first half of the file name dynamic and making the .dat or .txt or .doc unique to just output as .dat ?

Failed to initialize the XPath Expression Builder

Any idea what causes this and/or how to fix it?
When I am in the XPath Expression Builder, I pick "Conversion Functions" and start with "string". Inside the "string()" parentheses, I do "bpws:getVariableData()", and select my output variable from an invoke.
Then it SHOULD allow me to continue picking parts of that variable, down to the node I want, but instead I see in my JDeveloper log that a "Failed to initialize the XPath Expression Builder" error has been thrown.
Thoughts appreciated...

Can any of you Oracle guys help with this today?

Expression Builder: convert string to number

Hi all,
I'm having trouble building a field validation rule for bank account numbers.
The numbers have 12 positions, so I cannot use a string or text number.
The validation rule to be implemented is that the last two digits are calculated based on the first 10 (modulo 97).
However, when I use the Mid function to pick the first characters, I am unable to do any calculations on it. Apparently, the string to number conversion doesn't work (it should work when I read the manual, as it says that when using an operator between two data types, the second type is converted to the first (cf. example of 1234+abcd (should result in 1234 as to the manual))). So I tried '1*Mid(...)' or '0+Mid(...)'. Syntactically the expression builder accepts it and I can save it. BUT when I change the particular value on the screen, it gives me an SSO error (not the Field Validation error message I entered).
Why isn't there simply a function ToNumber (like ToChar)????? How could I workaround this?
Any input very welcome!
Frederik

Apparently, I was a bit confused when typing the first sentence, it should be:
The numbers have 12 positions, so I cannot use an integer or number data type, but have to use String.

Using Decode in Expression Builder...

Hi everybody,
I want to use the DECODE function of SQL in an Expression Builder....
Of course this function does not exist in any of the transformation categories(arithmetic,character,e.t.c.) in the expression builder.
I have read in the OWB on-line help that in the Expression Builder there should be an 'Others' drop - down list in order to select any of the available SQL clauses - one of them is 'decode'...
The problem is that this drop - down list in the Expression Builder is disabled.....
How can I use this function anyway..????
Instead of using ... in the Expression Builder...
decode(<column_name>,'1','val_one','2','val_two') what can I use to do the same....???
As regards the problem that the drop-down list is disabled , what may be the cause..???
I use Microsoft XP machine , Oracle 10g (v.10.2) and OWB v.10.1.0.4
The documentation says....
"This allows you to deploy the DECODE functionality in all operating modes (setbased, rowbased, etc.) and transparently across Oracle database releases (8.1, 9.0 and 9.2)."
The above means that the cause is the incompatibility..????
Thanks , a lot
Simon

I am using OWB 9.2.0.8 and I can't reproduce the problem you are having with 10.1, but did you try just typing it into the expression?
Or, better yet, use CASE. The syntax is easier to read. I think OWB translates DECODEs to CASE when the SQL is generated.
(Case <column_name>
When '1' Then 'val_one'
When '2' Then 'val_two'
End)

How to use SQL OVER and PARTITION BY in OBIEE Expression Builder??

Hi there,
I want to create a new logical coulmn with the following SQL query.
SUM(Inventory Detail.Qty) OVER(PARTITION BY Inventory Detail.A,Inventory Detail.B,Item.C,Inventory Detail.D,MyDATE )/SUM(Inventory Detail.Qty) OVER(PARTITION BY Inventory Detail.A,Inventory Detail.B,Item.C )
How to use the OVER and PARTITION BY in OBIEE Expression Builder??
Thanks in Advance

hi bipin,
We cant use by in Expression builder(rpd) .But use the same formula like this in Fx of answers
SUM(Inventory Detail.Qty) OVER(PARTITION BY Inventory Detail.A,Inventory Detail.B,Item.C,Inventory Detail.D,MyDATE )/SUM(Inventory Detail.Qty) >OVER(PARTITION BY Inventory Detail.A,Inventory Detail.B,Item.C )SUM(Inventory Detail.Qty by Detail,ITEM,Mydate)/SUM(qty by detail,item)
First check the numerator whether it was giving correct results or not then go with denominator
compare the results with sql that u have
Let me know if that does work
thanks,

Checking for empty tags using expression builder for XPATH

I am creating several filters in a mediator for several parallel paths. I am trying to route the mediator to the correct DB adapter based on what tags are empty in the incoming XML. The XML has 1 required tag and 3 optional. So for the expression, I am using the expression builder to load the tag name then putting either [text()] or [not(text())] immediately after each tag with an "and" in between for the 3 optional elements. The problem I am having is they always return false. For example, if I enter a value for an optional tag and put [text()] after it, it evaluates to false. What is the correct way to check if an element has text or not?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Its not recognizing the getVariableData func... instead try this:
string-length(xpath)>0
ex: string-length($in.body/imp1:manoj/imp1:C1)>0
It works... Happy deploying ... :)

How to use TRUNC function with dates in Expression Builder in OBIEE.

Hi There,
How to use TRUNC function with dates in Expression Builder in OBIEE.
TRUNC (SYSDATE, 'MM') returns '07/01/2010' where sysdate is '07/15/2010' in SQL. I need to use the same thing in expression builder in BMM layer logical column.
Thanks in advance

use this instead:
TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, ( DAYOFMONTH(CURRENT_DATE) * -1) + 1, CURRENT_DATE)

Did you try to deploy the mapping ? Some time the expression validator gives wrong error messege.
Try to deploy the mapping and see if you are still getting this issue
