Hi Narendra,
Go to https://websmp210.sap-ag.de/bosap-support
in that select downloads tab ->
Support Packages and Patches - Entry by Application Group -> SAP NetWeaver -> SAP MDM -> SAP NETWEAVER MDM 7.1
Here you will find all suporting files including your required MDM Java & .sca files.
You need a valid Service market place user ID to access these contents.

MDM JAVA API SCA file for MDM 7.1 SP04

I need to download MDM JAVA API SCA file for MDM 7.1 SP04. When I added to the download basket through service marketplace it is looking for the approval process, just for the API file. I was able to get the other files though like webdynpro framework, change tracker. We haven't setup the Solution Manager yet. It might take a while. Meanwhile is there any other way to get the SCA file.
Thanks

Opened message with SAP and they have approved the download basket. Now able to download the sca file.

Install MDM JAVA API

Hi,
I am using SAP MDM 5.5 SP05. Can someone guide me on how to install MDM Java API.
I referred to many threads on SDN but couldn't get through any.
I have already downloaded the java API which has one .sca file and two folders, each has some .jar files and javadoc folder.
Kindly help on how should i go with it.
Regards,
Chintan Sheth

Hi Chintan,
You wont install MDM Java API as u install your MDM server or client.
What the use of the MDM Java API?
1. Stand-alone Java Applications.
U can use MDM java API for your stand-alone applications that runs locally on your PC etc... For this you can import the MDM Java jar file into to the library of yourstand alone java application project.
2. J2EE Application or custom MDM iview in EP or SAP Webdynpro Apllication.
U can deploy the .sca file in the SAP WAS Java using the SDM client and u can extend the MDM Java API in your J2EE Application or custom MDM iview in EP or SAP Webdynpro Apllication
get back for help...

Vijay

Hi Suresh,
You can have the MDM JAVA API javadocs from the link
http://help.sap.com/javadocs/MDM/SP06P2/index.html
There you can see a package named com.sap.mdm.examples.The classes in it contains some examples using which you can start understanding the code.
You need to have MDM JAR files for it. And these JAR files to be used at build time can be added to the project thru :-
Right click on project-> properties->Java Build Path - > Add external JARs
At run time you can add them the reference in
Right click on project-> properties->web dynpro references->library reference.

its urgent help me
thanks

MDM Java API : urgent

hi all
we hv added 5 jar file
         MDM4J.jar
         mdm-admin.jar
         mdm-common.jar
         mdm-core.jar
         mdm-protocol.jar
but still we are getting error at
IConnectionSpec spec = connectionFactory.getConnectionSpec();
saying "Can not resolve IConnectionSpec"
does any one kno its solution??
do we need to add more jar files???

Hello
We have read installation guide "SAP Netweaver MDM 5.5 SP05", page 22, we want install MDM Connector and MDM Java API, in "installation procedure", it is indicate
1. Extract the files from the archives.
The javadoc folders contain an HTMLbased
collection of documents that
describe the Java API. Make sure you
retain the directory structure.
2. Deploy the SDA files on Web AS
Java using the Software Deployment
Manager (SDM). MDM Connector uses
the mdm4j library as a shared library to
support generic connection.
3. Store the JAR files at the standard
location for the application that uses
them.
4. Include the path to the JAR files in
the class path for the application that
uses them. This may be an
environment variable, a command line
argument, or an application
configuration parameter.
Only we are clear point 2, but rest, we are not sure, please could you clear us it ???
Thanks

Unfortunately I cannot seem to find that zip file anywhere!
Does anyone know where I can find this file so that I can look at the examples?
Thanks very much,

Migration from MDM 4J to MDM Java API

Hi,
Can anyone send me details on the migration of MDM 4J to MDM Java API .
Any document on the differences between the two will be really appreciated.
Best Regards
Sid

Hi Siddharth,
MDM4J was the old jar files which has been shipped by SAP. In earlier, for customization of any user requirement which is not avialable in MDM, In this case, we can use the MDM JAVA API. for using the same, we need to deploy the MDM4J.jar file then we can use.
Now, SAP has replaced the old MDM API file name as "MDM4J.jar" with "MDM Java API.jar".
the only difference between two is that they have added some new jar files to do the specific work with the MDM4J.jar itself. you can find the name as below:
MDM4J.jar
mdm-protocol.jar
mdm-data.jar
mdm-core.jar
mdm-common.jar
mdm-admin.jar
they have removed some old functionality from MDM4J.jar file itself and added so many new functionality with it.
for example: by using old java api, we can not get the password of any user but it is possible by new java API jar file. like this they have added so many new fuctionality which we can perform on the MDM Console and MDM Data manager.
for further info about the MDM JAVA API, you can just refer the following links:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdmgds55/helpdata/EN/index.htm
in the left pane,go to programming interface, the required java apis documents is there.
All the documentation is available on the MDM documentation center on SAP Service Marketplace:
http://service.sap.com/installMDM
But for this you need valid service market place id and pwd.
Hope this will help you.

Saurabh...

MDM JAVA API to enter value into field of type date

Hi All,
I am having an input field in a typical Dynpro application where a date would be entered.I want to enter the date in my MDM table in a field of type "Date".Do you have any idea about MDM JAVA API's I need to do this.Also how can I do this ?
Thanks
Vinay

Hi,
Web Dynpro shall return you a type Date field. For Value, you shall have to pass SystemTime Object.
Just get the substring of Date.toString() and convert them to Integer ..
So a typical date would look like yyyy-mm-dd (eg: 2006-10-19) and not yyyymmdd.
SystemTime st = new SystemTime();
st.setYear( Integer.parseInt(Date.toString().substring(0,4));
st.setMonth ( Integer.parseInt(Date.toString().substring(5,7));
st.setDate ( Integer.parseInt(Date.toString().substring(8,10));
A2iField date = new A2iField("fieldname", new Value(st));
Hope that helps..
Regards,
Tanveer.
Please mark helpful answers
Note: The above mentioned code is not pasted from any editor..So might contain syntax error..

Attachments using MDM java API

Hi
How to store attachments in MDM repository using MDM java API.
Could you please suggest us.
Thanks
Sowmya

Hi Sowmya,
You can store attachments using MDM Java API. You can use the following piece of code.
BinaryBlobRecord record2 = RecordFactory.createEmptyBinaryObjectRecord(tableID);
//Attachment to be saved
String filePath = wdContext.currentContextElement().getVa_Resource().getUrl(0);
IWDResource resource = wdContext.currentContextElement().getVa_Resource();
FileInputStream stream = (FileInputStream)resource.read(true);
int length = 0;
while(stream.read() != -1)
     length++;
byte[] b = new byte[(int) length];
stream.read(b);
stream.close();
record.setName(new StringValue("filename"));
record.setOriginalName(new StringValue("filename"));
record.setHasOriginal(new BooleanValue(true);
RetrieveGroupTreeCommand groupTreeCommand = new    RetrieveGroupTreeCommand(wdContext.currentContextElement().getVa_ConnectionStr());
groupTreeCommand.setSession(wdContext.currentContextElement().getVa_SessionID());
groupTreeCommand.setGroupType(GroupTypes.DATA_GROUP_TYPE);
groupTreeCommand.execute();
//Set data location and data group ID
record.setDataLocationId(new GroupNodeId("GN2"));
record.setDataGroupId(new GroupNodeId("GN2"));
record.setBinary(new BinaryValue(b));
CreateRecordCommand createRecComm =
                         new CreateRecordCommand(wdContext.currentContextElement().getVa_ConnectionStr());
createRecComm.setSession(wdContext.currentContextElement().getVa_SessionID());
createRecComm.setRecord(record);
createRecComm.execute();
//Link this record to the main table record
Record QRec = RecordFactory.createEmptyRecord(mainTable);
//Setting the above created record in main table record object
QRec.setFieldValue(attachmentField, new LookupValue(record.getId()));
CreateRecordCommand createRecComm =
                    new CreateRecordCommand(wdContext.currentContextElement().getVa_ConnectionStr());
createRecComm.setSession(wdContext.currentContextElement().getVa_SessionID());
createRecComm.setRecord(QRec);
createRecComm.execute();
Now the main table record is created with an attachment.
Hope this helps you.

Sruti
