Migration to smartview API

Hello Everyone
I've a piece of code where Essbase add-in functions are used, I want this piece of code to be replaced with the SmartView functions. I've come across a function EssVSetSheetOption to which parameters given are as below
x = EssVSetSheetOption(Null, 11, False)
In an attempt to replace this function with SmartView function I could find a function HypVSetSheetOption which has almost every parameter identical to the one in add-in API, but I could not find an option for the parameter 11 in SmartView API i.e. for Enable Retain on Retrieval formula preservation setting . So to replace this function which set of parameters do I need to provide to HypVSetSheetoption function
Please provide me a solution for this
Thanks in Advance

I don't think there is an option for preserve formulas and comments.
You can use this sts = HypSetGlobalOption(1, True) to set it to EXCEL formatting (however this won't preserve the formula)

Migration to the SmartView API

Hello Everyone
                    I am working on an application which requires the existing Essbase Add-in API functions to be replaced by the SmartView functions so that the Application becomes compatible with the SmartView.
                    In the current version of the Application which is to be migrated a method EssVGetMemberInfo is used which now I want to replace with the appropriate Smartview Function. I see 3 methods in the API for SmartView but I am not sure which one to use in the Application.
                    Please tell me which method should I use for the app to become compatible with the SmartView.
Thanks in Advance

Migrating menues from oracle 11i to R12

Hi all,
I have to migrate Menus from Oracle 11i to R12, this can be done using FND_LOAD, but we have to migrate it using API's. Please suggest me the API name and approach. Currently I am investigating on fnd_menus_pkg.load_row and fnd_menu_entries_pkg.load_row . Please let mw know if these are the correct API's to migrate Menus. Any help is appreciated.

If the version of $FND_TOP/patch/115/import/afsload.lct and the table structure is identical on both instances, you may use FNDLOAD for your custom menus. However, I would not recommend using FNDLOAD or any API between different application releases.

API to create value set with attribute values ?

Hi
I was hoping someone might be able to help with this question.
I am creating a series of value set values using fnd_flex_val_api.create_independent_vset_value and fnd_flex_val_api.create_dependent_vset_value as part of a migration.
These APIs do not allow you to pass in attribute column values.
How can you create a value set value which has attribute values populated ? Is there another API does anyone know ?
Thanks a lot
Scott

Smartview VBA function for launch calc-scripts as strings. like EsbCalc ???

We have used an Excel VBA which launch an calculation script from a STRING using the VBA Add-In function "EsbCalc".
We would like to migrate to Smartview VBA functions.....
The calc-script string has "parameters" which are modified at run-time...
I have found the function HypExecuteCalcScript - but seems that use as parameters ONLY the calc-script name...
Is it any VBA function in SmartView which launch a calc-script string (not a calc-script name) ?
We are using EPM 11.2
Thanks...

A tip I just learned at Kaleidoscope 2010* is that one can create a calc script consisting entirely of a substitution variable. In other words, a calc script can look like this:
&Calc
Smart View VBA does have a function for changing or creating substitution variables (HypSetSubstitutionVariable). You could create a calc script and subvar in your database as above. Then, at run time, set that subvar to your calc string with HypSetSubstitutionVariable and execute the calc script with HypExecuteCalcScript.
Quick test (11.1.1.3) shows that this really works.
I can't remember privileges required to create or set subvars vs execute calc strings off the top of my head - might be an issue (I ran as an admin). Also this approach doesn't support concurrent users, unless they each have a calc script and subvar to themselves. Still, depending on your exact situation, this might be a feasible workaround.
*I won't credit the presenter solely because the tip came from a presentation which he specifically declined to make public domain.

API: how to logoff

Hello,
I use C# api to work with HFM 9.2.
I'm able to connect to an application but i don't find any method to logoff.
So I suppose that my connection is closed at the end of the execution of my program but is there a way to force a logoff?
thanks,

Are you using the smartview API?
I suggest you provide more information, so the answer is relevant to you.

Problem with transaction control - URGENT

I have a requirement to use a PL/SQL package to validate data that is created by my OAF application.
My process is as follows:
1. User enters data and clicks save (Submit action)
2. Controller captures save event and invokes "Apply" in AM
3. Apply method calls getTransaction.postChanges()
4. Apply method then executes PL/SQL block and gets the results of validation (Validation function does not do any DML on the data)
5. if validation is ok then I commit (This bit works fine)
6. if validation fails then I just stop processing and let the page reload ( I am not forwarding to processrequest)
7. User corrects the error and clicks save again
I have tried step 6 with throwing OAException and not throwing OAException and in both scenarios at step 7 I receive the following:
Unable to perform transaction on the record. \nCause: The record has been deleted by another user. \nAction: Cancel the transaction and re-query the records to get the new data.
Please help I have been working with this for a day now and I am no closer to solving the problem. This error occurs when I try to postChanges for the second time in step 7.

Hi Pratap,
My requirement is to use a PL/SQL package to validate the data and provide feedback to the user. I am using a callable statement to select the data from the base tables and validate it based on the data I enter in my OAF application.
I know that we can do validation in OAF EO, entity expert etc.. but the business requirement is to have a central re-usable validation platform so that it can be used for the application and data migration, PL/SQL API's etc... We dont want to write the validation logic in OAF and PL/SQL is the objective.
So we have the validation in PL/SQL which just returns a message about any errors, I call this from my header EO validate() method.
For it to work however the data has to be available to the PL/SQL before I hit commit in OAF (which fires validation), to do this I call trx.postChanges prior to commit which makes the data available. If the data is valid then there is no problem the data saves ok.
If the data is invalid I correct the error and try the process again, when it hits postChanges for a second time after the correction it gives me the error.
I have simplified the test case as per my post above and it seems that I cannot use postChanges more than once in the same transaction, I am wondering if the VO cache is being deleted in the same way as you have to re-query after a commit() you may have to do the same thing after a post(), only question is will I get my posted data back?
Any thoughts/comments would be appreciated.
Thanks for your help so far

Unable to test Adobe interactive form from webdynpro

This is the out put i get when i test run the report 'FP_TEST_IA_01'.As suggested in SAP NOTE : 999998
ADS: com.adobe.ProcessingException: Could not retrieve a password for credential: ReaderRights(200.101).
Actually i was trying my first Adobe interactive form with webdynpro and when i tested it i got this message.
The following error text was processed in the system NED : WebDynpro Exception: The ADS call has failed. You can find information about the cause in the error.pdf on the application server
Does Adobe interactive form requires Java stack to be active??
Or is it only a configuration issue in ADS???
What all should i take care in order to successfully run an adobe interactive form???

Venkar Raghavan

Dear Abhishake,
Thanks for your reply.
I had gone through the link you had mentioned detailly.what i understand that is ZCI needs to be installed thats comming with Support pack SAP NetWeaver SPS 10 .
Will this also take care of ADS configuration.Where can i find a guide to ADS configuration and ZCI installation.
When i ran a report check FP_CHK_REPORT below is the output i got.can you please throw more light on this.

Copy emails (entire mailbox) to another exchange server 2013

Hi,
We are a hosted Exchange server 2013 solution provider, and we want to migrate customer mailboxes (from exchange 2007, 2010) to Exchange 2013 using some API, as we have a web portal for other admin tasks too. Someone told us that we can use EWS Managed API
for this purpose.
Is there any article in this regard, which can help us?
Or, is there any other API which we can use?
Thanks in anticipation.
Regards, David Johnson

Hi,
Glen thanks a lot for your reply. You are always a great help.
We are currently exporting\importing using powershell manually, but there are some difficulties in automating it using a web based app, as we don't want our customers to do any manual changes, while also, from our server, we cannot execute powershell commands
on remote Exchange 2007 servers.
Automating Cross forest migration is also very diificult, as you know that it has many steps, which are hard to automate, and also there is no api for MRS, as we know.
We have seen some migration utilities doing migration using EWS API, like CodeTwo, and also Transend
Migrator. Can you please tell, if you know, how they are doing it.
Thanks.

Problem with Java Print API ( awt ) : Migrated from 1.1 to 1.4

We had migrated an application ( applet based) from Java 1.1.8 to java 1.4.
We use the java.awt.print apis for printing data from our applications.
There is difference in print quality after the migration. For e.g. if the data frame had a scroll bar when taken print out, the scroll bar was not visible in java1.1 version application but is being printed with java1.4 version.
We are unable to find the cause of this problem. Any help in this regard would be of great help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
thanks, this solved the problem.
Thank you.

Is there a way to migrate Content Area vía API?

Hi
I have to migrate an Oracle Portal 9.0.2 installation to an 11.1.1.4. Now I had some really unpleasant and even traumatic experiences with the migration. I was wondering is there an API in 11.1.1.4 where I can create a process that takes the 9.0.2 pages and generates them in 11.1.1.4?.
Regards,
Néstor Boscpan

There is the [url http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/wwsbr-api-154905.html]wwsbr_api which provides you with a lot of functionality to create page groups, pages, items etc. Theoretically it can be used to build a migration tool but I doubt whether it would be more robust than Oracle's own upgrade scripts. But then, you have not upgraded your environment for ages so there may be challenges ahead of you.
Thanks,
EJ

MDM4J to New API Migration

Hi All
We are planning to upgrade a MDM interface, designed using MDM4J Java API to New Java API as we are migrating from MDM 5.5 SP03 to SP05.
We basically use the interface for the following
- Add / update Records
- Move the records from one repo to another repo
- few other customized functionalities
Need your help with the following queries.
- Do we need to re-write the whole application code?
- How much % of code can be reused?
Please share your experiance if you have worked on the same.
Thanks

Hi Nathan,
The amount of code that needs to be re-written depends on how well you have separated data manipulation and UI. Obviously every reference to MDM4J functions needs to be recoded.
Please note that your intended migration from SP03 to SP05 does not mean that you have to migrate custom applications to the new Java API, as SP05 still supports MDM4J. So you should consider the migration to the new API if you want to take advantage of functionality not included in MDM4J, or the much smaller memory footprint of the new API.

Migration from DPL to Base API, is it possible ?

Hello,
Once developing an application using the DPL, will it be possible to migrate to the Base API (for example if we need to use JCA or JMX later) ?
Is there a project or future development to use JCA or JMX over DPL DB ?
Thanks
Fahmi

Hello,
After developing application with the JE DPL API, will it be possible to have JCA Support for this DB to make legacy with EIS in a J2EE container ?
Thanks

Migrating Legacy APIs to use Generics

hi,
I am migrating a DB facade type API to use generics.
This class can execute queries and has a API of the form
public List query(Query myQuery);
Obviously I'd much prefer to return a type safe list e.g.
public <T extends BusinessEntity List<T> query(Query<T> myQuery);
So the Query class has a concept of a Type which has relevant so API's it is used in knows what type it is returning.
My first question is, I feel a bit parameterising the Query class. The only reason why it is parameterised is so that when it is used in API's such as above.
It has not other purpose. Have I gone off on a tangent here?
Also, in some cases when the Applicaion is creating Query objects, it's obvious what to set the generic parameter to and it's very easy.
But for other cases it's not or it's not as important that it is set.
This could mean the design ends up where sometimes Query is parameterised and sometimes it is not. This sounds very messy.
I would appreciate your opinions :-) Are my better off just not parameterising the Query class?
I would then have an API such as:
public List<? extends BusinessEntity> query(Query query);
Maybe that's a better way to go? Any rule of thumb here?
Note: before anyone says it JPA is not possible :-)

[JPA2.0 perhaps|http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-typesafejpa/] ? Looks like they when with the typed Query so no harm doing the same I think.

How to migrate Win32 API QueueUserAPC on Solaris?

Hi,
I am trying to migrate Win32 API QueueUserAPC to Solaris. On Win32, it queues asynchrounous calls to a queue and runs under a specific thread context. Is there any equivalent call or implementation on Solaris?
Thanks,
Abhi.

An excellent question.
One that might best be discussed in a forum where database people hang out, rather than a forum where one reports documentation issues.
