Linkage Error in Mapping and Operation mapping testing for Synchronous in NWDS

Dear Experts,
Hope you all are doing fine..
I am working in a synchronous scenario Proxy via SAP PI 7.4 to JAVA Application supporting JSON.I wrote JAVA program to convert JSON to XML and while performing test for the JAVA mapping in response structure at Operation Mapping,I am receiving following error..
LinkageError at JavaMapping.load(): Could not load class: json2xml/bin/pack/EsrJson2Xml
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: json2xml/bin/pack/EsrJson2Xml (wrong name: pack/EsrJson2Xml) at

I followed some of discussions for the Linkagae error http://scn.sap.com/thread/1418477 but could not help..
Following are details of my NWDS and PI server:
SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio
SAP Enhancement Package 1 for SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio 7.3 SP10 PAT0000
Compiled the project with JAVA SE-1.6 as well as 1.5
SAP PO 7.4 Java Only , Release: NW731CORE_10_REL
SP: 05 JDK: jdk16 Latest Change: 353688
I have taken care to export all the Jar files used in NWDS to be exported and then imported as Archived files in PI server.
But could not see the 5 jar files in ESR. I hope there is some issue with name as can see in the log.Can the issue be solved?
How to test the Operation mapping for Synchronous Message in NWDS?
Regards
Rebecca

Dear Hareesh and Experts,
I resolved the issue by doing the below steps.
1. Downloaded the JDK5 and updated the Java console i.e. JRE 15.
2. I had created this project using the JAVA Compiler with JAVA SE1.6 initially. Changed this to 1.5 in the Properties of the Project.
3. Uploaded the project again in ESR Imported Archive.
The issue is solved.
Thanks a lot for all your inputs.

Abap mapping and operation mapping param

Hi All,
I have a problem with retrive value of export parameter in operation mapping by abap mapping class.
standard parameter of abpa mapping class method that execute it contains param that ref to IF_MAPPING_PARAMETERS. So i belive by this class using method PARAMETERS->GET_STRING( 'P_IDOC_NR' ), but it dosen't works.
Any idea
Regards
M.

I have not seen anything in online help that gives the impression that you can use parameters in ABAP mapping.
So I suppose that this does not work at all.
Maybe you could use this approach:

Horizontal Mapping and Flat mapping with Metadata Value Indicator

Hi
I have an abstract class B which itself extends another abstract class A.
There is no table for A. The fields in A are mapped to B. I believe this
is called "horizontal mapping"
C and D inherit off B. There's a also a table named B (mapped to class B),
but none for C or D. Instances of C and D are recorded in table B. I
believe this is called "flat mapping"
B has a field foo whose possible values are 'fred' and 'wilma'.
If foo='fred', then the record is of type C
If foo='wilma', then the record is of type D
I believe this is called "class indicator" of type metadata.
To express this, I have package.jdo which says
<class name="A"/>
<class name="B" persistence-capable-superclass="A"/>
<class name="C" persistence-capable-superclass="B"/>
<class name="D" persistence-capable-superclass="B"/>
In B.mapping, I have
<mapping>
<package name="domain">
<class name="B">
<jdbc-class-map type="horizontal"/>
<jdbc-class-ind type="metadata-value" column="foo"/>
</class>
</package>
</mapping>
B.java has a private String foo.
In C.mapping, I have
<mapping>
<package name="domain">
<class name="C">
<jdbc-class-map type="flat"/>
<jdbc-class-ind-value value="fred"/>
field mappings for C
</class>
</package>
</mapping>
and similarly in D for value='wilma'
My questions are...
1. Is this kind of mapping supported by kodo?
2. If so, is this configuration correct? I guess not, since I don't
specify the table name anywhere. Where should it go?
3. If I remove the "class indicator" mapping and run a simple test I get
kodo.util.FatalUserException: There is no superclass mapping for mapping
for "class domain.D".

Hi , friends pls explain abap mapping and message mapping

1) pls explain abap mapping and message mapping
send me screen shorts also.

Hi
Mapping Techniques
XI provides 3 standard ways of interface mapping between source and target.
Graphical mapping
Java Mapping
XSLT Mapping
Two more additional mapping types can be activated in XI by making changes to the exchange profile. Those two mappings are
ABAP mapping
XSLT mapping with ABAP Extensions
Graphical Mapping
Graphical mapping is a common approach followed by everyone for generating desired target structure. It involves simple drag-n-drop to correlate respective nodes (fields) from source and target structure. It hardly involves coding. (Exception - User defined functions). But sometimes with graphical mapping it is difficult to produce required output. For example ... text/html output, namespace change, sorting or grouping of records etc.
ABAP Mapping
A person comfortable with Object Oriented ABAP can go for ABAP mapping instead.
Java Mapping
Java Mapping uses 2 types of parsers. DOM and SAX. DOM is easier to use with lots of classes to help you create nodes and elements, but , DOM is very processor intensive.
SAX parser is something that parses your XML one after the other, and so is not processor intensive. But, it is not exaclty easy to develop either.
XSLT Mapping
One can also think of Java mapping as another option but it is a bit complex and required knowledge of Java. In such cases, XSLT mapping can be the best approach to meet the requirements.
A few example cases in which an XSLT mapping can be used:-
When the required output is other than XML like Text, Html or XHTML (html displayed as XML)
When default namespace coming from graphical mapping is not required or is to be changed as per requirements.
When data is to be filtered based on certain fields (considering File as source)
When data is to be sorted based on certain field (considering File as source)
When data is to be grouped based on certain field (considering File as source)\
Advantages of using XSLT mapping
XSLT program itself defines its own target structure.
XSLT programs can be imported into SAP XI. Message mapping step can be avoided. One can directly go for interface mapping once message interfaces are created and mapping is imported.
XSLT provides use of number of standard XPath functions that can replaces graphical mapping involving user defined java functions easily.
File content conversion at receiver side can be avoided in case of text or html output.
Multiple occurrences of node within tree (source XML) can be handled easily.
XSLT can be used in combination with graphical mapping.
Multi-mapping is also possible using xslt.
XSLT can be used with ABAP and JAVA Extensions.
Disadvantages of using XSLT mapping
Resultant XML payload can not be viewed in SXMB_MONI if not in XML format (for service packs < SP14).
Interface mapping testing does not show proper error description. So errors in XSLT programs are difficult to trace in XI but can be easily identified outside XI using browser.
XSLT mapping requires more memory than mapping classes generated in Java.
XSLT program become lengthier as source structure fields grows in numbers.
XSLT program sometimes become complex to meet desired functionality.
Some XSL functions are dependent on version of browser.
Different types of Mappings
MAPPING SUPPORTED BY XI
Message Mapping -> Graphical Design and testing environment. Default Provided By XI. Queue based modelling allow handling or large documents. Extensible via user defined functions
XSLT Mapping - > Based on openstandard, Portable across application platform, Extensible using user defined functions kewl but disadvantage is Memory overload while handling large documents.
SAX -> Simple Api For XML. -> Allows you to parse through a XML document. Doesn't consume any memory. But the message can be parsed only once from top to bottom. It Has evolved by contributions made by group of ppl itz a open architecture.
DOM -> Document Object Model -> Itz designed by W3C. Consumes Memory as the message will be loaded. Allows parsing of document in both way top down and bottom up.
Send me your email id.Shall send you very good docs for both ABAP Mapping and message mapping.
Thanks

Ovi maps and Nokia Maps

I have recently downloaded the ovi maps update for free navigation on my 5800 however now I seem to have 2 programs in my installed apps menu, Ovi maps and Nokia maps. This is causing me some problems as my phones built in memory is now completely full and I am unable to do some things as I have ran out of on phone memory space. Which one is the main map software? And also can I uninstall one? If not then can it be installed on a MSD card and if yes how?

As far as I can determine Ovi maps is the mapping software (program) which installs to C (phone memory) and Nokia maps is the map data that you have loaded which I believe are installed to E (mass memory).
I can confirm that you do need both installed.
The problem as far as I can see is that the previous maps versions 3.01 is built into the current firmware (v20 for N97 - not sure for 5800) and installing maps 3.03 does not remove or overwrite the earlier version so you end up with both versions installed and thus the extra memory footprint.
This will remain a problem until a newer firmware is released which will hopefully have maps 3.03 (or later depending when next firmware is released) thus reducing the extra 9 megs or so used.
Hope this answers your question

Java Mapping and Graphical Mapping

Hi All,
Could any one clarifies the situation where we need to write in a same interface ,
Both Java mapping and Graphical mapping.
Regards,
venu.

Hi,
Here is a scenario where you might need to use both graphical and user defined functions.
source: <fname> <lname> <filename>
target: <name> <filetype>
Suppose, you need to concatenate fname and lname into the target <name> tag, you could use the normal graphical mapping using the concat function.
<fname>\
concat <name>
<lname>/
next, if we need to extract only the filetype from the filename, for example, if we have filename.txt... and we want only the value .txt, we need to write a user defined function which would achieve this for u, since there are no inbuilt function which can solve this for you in graphical mapping.
Further XSLT mapping comes into picture when we need to create the entire target xml structure. Again, graphical mapping would not be useful here.
Regards,
Smitha.

XI 7.0 passing attributes between java mapping and message mapping

Hi all,
Here's a newbie question. There is a scenario where an interface mapping has several stages of java mapping and message mapping
I would like to know how to set attributes in the java mapping so that it can be accessed in a message map (or vice versa). What I intend to do is pass some information from one mapping to the other so that action can be taken based on the values passed.
Thank you!

Another option is storing the values in the message header in the same way as the Adapter-Specific Message Attributes:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/09b16006526e72e10000000a422035/frameset.htm
Just use your own name/namespace combination, which is not used in any adapter.
If possible use the way that Sandro proposed and add the information which you need to additional tags in the payload.
Regards
Stefan

Class-Map and Policy-Map Configuration in CM Confusion

Hi,
I'm implementing a green field WAAS deployment for a customer. We currently have a Proof-of-Concept up and running.
I've got some questions regarding custom class-map and policy-map configuration in the CM. I'd like to nail-down the custom class-map and policy-map configuration (and understanding) in the PoC before cutting over the PoC branches to the production WAAS environment.
Assuming a typical WAAS Deployment using WCCP for off-path interception, branch to DC.
==> 61 in LAN (BRANCH ROUTER) <== 62 in WAN (WAN CLOUD) ==> 61 in WAN (DC ROUTER) <== 62 in LAN
We are using two distinct device groups, BRANCH and DATA CENTER.
If the customer has traffic that we need to classify in order to provide TFO only optimisation, should the single class-map include the traffic in both directions? Ie., (assume the SERVER is 10.1.1.1 TCP Port 443). Should the class-map be configured as:
Class-Map
Line 1: DST IP 10.1.1.1 DST Port 443
Line 2: SRC IP 10.1.1.1 SRC Port 443
Or in this case is only the DST line required? And in which Device Group should the custom policy be applied? Or should it be applied to both Device Groups? If it should be applied to both Device Groups, then would it make more sense to have the policy-map in the Branch DG configured to match the DST traffic, and on the Data Center DG have a different class-map match the SRC traffic?
My confusion is how to classify the traffic (SRC or DST or Both - Separate classes for each or different lines within the same class-map), and where to apply the appropriate policy (both Device Groups, just Branch, just DC) and why...
I tried to apply a custom policy and the impact in the PoC was that the TCP Summary report stopped reporting the individual traffic classes showed 'other traffic' only. Can anyone explain why this may have occurred?
I hope this makes sense.

for instance like this:
policy-map police-in
class class-default
police rate 10 mpbs <optionally set burst>
policy-map shape-out-parent
class class-default
shape 10 mpbs <optional burst config>
service-policy shape-out-child
policy-map shape-out-child
class class-default
queue-limit 10 packets
int g 0/0/0/0
service-policy police-in in
service-policy shape-out-parent out
also have a look at CL 2013/2014 (orlando/sanfran) ID 2904 for more QOS details
and the support forum article of "asr9000 quality of service architecture"

Message Mapping And Interface Mapping

Hi,
I have 2 software components.
One is for sender and one is for receiver.I have created all the Data types,Message type and Message Interface fro sender in the first Software component and data types ,message type ,message interface for the receiver in the second software component .
Now, in which Software component should i create Message Mapping and Interface Mapping?
Thanks in Advance,
mvk

Hi,
You could use the created Message type and Message interfaces in Sender as well as receiver software components for creating message mapping, interface mapping and integration scenario.
Generally it makes sense to maintain the message mapping, interface mapping and integration scenario in receiver software component. The message mapping and Integration scenario is specifically based on the receiver end requirments, so its preffered on receiver software component.
The sender side details could be reusable in case if you need those for another new receiver software component. If you maintain it in sender component, then that will lead to mix-up all the things on sender side even though its based on receiver end.
I think this could help you.
In PI7.1 now there is concept of Folders to maintain all the interfaces appropriatly and leads for reusability of existing objects.
Please refer below links for more details,

N96 - GPS local maps and voice guided navi for 3 m...

I see on the box of the N96 :
"Including local maps and voice-guided navigation for three months"
So after 3 months there is no local maps and voice ?
Why that ?
Even a cheap GPS at 100 euros has maps and voice forever
I dont understand. I have paid the phone and his features or not ?

I have to disagree with you there.
The system is designed to suit all users, not just those that use the phone for navigation in the car. Plus many people won't use the phone for navigation but will use it as an interactive map book.
Also with all the new and upcoming location based services that nokia now offers it is very important to have up-to-date maps.
If we had to pay for map updates then many of the location based services wouldn't be accurate or worth using.
So for a phone based navigation program it makes much more sense to get free maps. Obviously they have to recoup the map costs from somewhere so they have to charge for the navigation feature.
For dedicated in car sat-nav systems such as tom toms then it makes sense for them to give you the navigation for free. They make their money by charging you for new maps and maps for other countries.
So in some ways nokia's system is better because you have maps of most of the world totally free. It's also the only system that could suit the majority.
At the end of the day no one is forcing you to use nokia maps either. If you don't like it then install a program like garmin XT. This program is like in car sat-navs where navigation is free but you pay for maps. A very expensive option if you travel to many countries.

Driving times vary from Maps and Google maps?

When I plot a trip I find driving times vary significantly from Maps and Google maps. I wonder what the paramieters are for attaching driving times to routes? I would hope that it were speed limits.

Basically it is average driving time. Speed limits is a factor but so is congestion, terrain, weather, construction, etc. Since Apple and Google get their data from different sources, the results are always going to be different.

How do i update & test import maps and syndication maps?

HI,
Can anyone guide me/ let me know the steps - how do i update & test import maps & syndication maps during upgrade in development system>
Regards,
Harmony

Hello Harmony
Different service packs SAP MDM 7.1 supprot the same Syndication and Import map format.
For Import map is updating you can use Import manager
For syndication map is updating - Syndicator
If your syndication and import map have been saved into repository just archive repository from your source landscape and unarchive it in destination.
If your syndication and import map haven't been saved in repository.
Exporting your maps to xml(syndication maps from syndicator and import maps from Import Manager) before migration and importing it to new repository.
According updating(modification) repository structure:
For Import map is updating you can use Import manager
For syndication map is updating - Syndicator
Another way(very exotic) - make changes in exported xml maps.
That's all

Regarding Java mapping and ABAP Mapping

Hello,
If I suppose to do Java mapping or ABAP mapping, Is there any pre requisite to perform these two mappings?
If exist what they are?
How to perform them?
Thank you

Hello jyotsna,
Java mapping can be used when you have complex mapping structures.
We can do most of the times for our requirements through Graphical mapping.
When the structures are very complex to build you can go for SAX (Simple API for XML) or DOM (Document Object Model) parsers.
Message mapping internally generates DOM parser.

ABAP mappings run on ABAP Stack and are developed in the ABAP workbench of the Integration Server.
You normally do not need to use the ABAP mappings and is preferable for someone with ABAP programming background. I should say JAVA functions would suffice any complex scenarios.
refer step by step guides for ABAP Mapping

You need to provide the name of your mapping program maually , you see it is an input box.
just provide the name of abap mapping program it will work.
and one more thing you cannot test abap mapping program in integration builer you need to test in abap only.
use tcode: SXI_MAPPING_TEST for testing abap mapping
Thanks,
Satya
