MM_openBrWindow - using variable in path

Hello,
If I have done this:
<script language="javascript">
var large="/graphics/00000001/main.jpg";
</script>
How would I write the MM_openBrWindow to use that variable?
So normally it is like this:
<a href="javascript:;" onClick="MM_openBrWindow
('imagepath','large','scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=540,height=540')">
View Large Image</a>
Where 'imagepath' is a hardcoded path. How can I write it to
interpret and
use the variable "large" I defined above? Thank you

Using Variable Replacement Path with Hierarchies

Hi,
I have a requirement where I have two product hierarchies.
In my report I want the user to be able to select which hierarchy they view at run time.
I want them to be able to see this hierarchy as a tree,in order for me to do this I first must inlcude one variable to specify which hierarchy i am going to use, then the next Variable2 is populated by Variable1 and allows the users to expand on that hierarchy tree.
E.g
At Run Time
Selection 1: User selects Product Hierarchy1
Selection 2: Gets automatically populated based on selection 1 to show the product hierarchy tree for this variable.
I have tried using replacement paths to do this but it does not allow this.
Any ideaS?
Thanks

It finally worked, looks like the reason it was not working was a Query Designer exception issue whihc went with a re-start of Query Designer.
All good

Using variables in paths to objects

Hi
I'm wondering how I can use a string in a declared variable
for a path to an object. Here's an example:
On the press of a button a variable is declared:
_root.nextsection = "news";
And later on I want to use the string "news" in a path, like
this (on a frame action):
if (_root.nextsection == "news") {
this.nextsection.gotoAndPlay(1);
As you can see in the second line I'm using the variable name
as a path... but this doesn't work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Depending of where your if statement is, if your
this.nextsection is the
same as _root.nextsection, since this is a string and not an
mc, what it
does is:
"news".gotoAndPlay(1).
If you had a movieclip named news in the _root, then you
could do:
_root[_root.nextsection].gotoAndPlay(1) // EQUIVALENT TO
_root["news"] or
_root.news
Other option is:
var mynextsection_mc = eval("_root." + _root.nextsection) ;
mynextsection_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
Flash will evaluate your constructed string "_root.news" to
an object and
return it, if it doesn't match anything, then you will get an
undefined.

Need to use variable Local Paths

Hello,
I have a the following snippit, how can I add a variable to the bolded UNC path C:\TEMP\GPO\source\5\{231A178D-DC6C-4186-9575-9C64F07DA5B5}\gpreport.xml
Those paths will change a lot in my scenerio. Thank you.

FTPs connection error:When using Variable substitution for Directory path

Hi
I am transferring data from BI to xml file via PI: Here a Client proxy from BI sends the data to PI and the PI FTPs the XML file to a remote location. For FTP I am using FTPs SSL connection.
It was working fine untill I used Variable susbstitution to determine Directory path dynamically. I am using this because different xml files are intended to goto the different locations.
I did the variable substitution like this:
Target Message Structure:
---> Target Directory: %var1%
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE>
<Header>
<Directory>/Customer</Directory>
</Header>
<Detail>
</Detail>
</MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE>
And in the variable substitution I am doing it this way
payload:MT_BI_EXTRACT_FILE,1,Header,1,Directory,1
And the error I am getting is:
Attempt to process file failed with Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool: com.sap.aii.af.service.util.concurrent.ResourcePoolException: Unable to create new pooled resource: iaik.security.ssl.SSLException: Peer sent alert: Alert Fatal: handshake failure

Does anybody have some Idea of this ??

Hi,
I guess the problem is not with Variable Substitution..
Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool:
So its a connection problem..
Also check the option Disable Security check and try again...
Try to check again if the interface is executing properly without Variable substitution and let us know..

Help creating a path using variables.

HI
I;m trying to create a path to a movievclip created with
attachMovie. I need tio create the path using variable:
_root.var1.var2.gotoAndPlay("something");
How can I tell flash that var1, var2, etc are variables and
not a relative path?
Tks,

Hello Tks,
depending where the movieclip is that you are trying
communicate with you need to use either other movieclips or you
will need to use _parent.
var gong:MovieClip;
var bong:MovieClip;
var song:MovieClip;
this.attachMovie("gong".....
gong.attachMovie("bong"....
bong.attachMovie("song"...
to access song from the timeline in which all these movie
clips were attached
this.gong.bong.song.variable
from song to the timeline in which all movie clips were
attached
song._parent._parent._parent.variable
Hope this helps..

How to use independent replacement paths for same KF over several months?

Dear Experts,
I have a query requirement to show KF values for items that meet a condition on another KF for a five month period. I know that I can accomplish this using a replacement path variable on item for one month at a time, however I am not sure how to do this for multiple months in one query.
This is an example:
Month 1
KF 1 > 0 for Items A & B.........so show KF 2 for for Items A & B
Month 2
KF 1 > 0 for Items B & C.........so show KF 2 for for Items B & C
Month 3
KF 1 > 0 for Items A & C.........so show KF 2 for for Items A & C
Thanks in advance for your help!

Ok, Nancy, code copy/ paste did work fine.
what does this mean:
"Change the image in the properties panel to display your new image."
(the image is displaying ok)
NEverthesless, I think I got Murrays old notes.
Here is my new version of Murrays writing, easiest way I think:
You open up a pre-existing html, say Chicago. Then drag over with pointer to the new jpeg you want (Buffalo). It replaces Chicago with the buffalo jpeg, all links work perfectly. Then do a save as called Buffalo.

Exception color with formula variable(replacement path)

Hello,
I tried to define exceptions in a query which "from" and "to" values
are determined by formula variables with replacement path. I checked
the values of the formula variables and they are right. <b>But <b>the cells
are not colored</b></b>. When I set the same values in the field "from" and "to" without variables : the colors appear.
Could help me to resolve this problem please ?
Catherine Bellec

Hi Alec,
You are right, the user exit permits to color the lines.
But the value of my variable needs to change for each line of the infocube so I can't do this with the user exit RSR00001 because it concerns global variables.
That's why I used a replacement path on a virtual characteristic.

How can I use variable for a package filename and target file inODIFileMove

I want to use a variable for paths so that when I migrate from Dev to QA to Prod I don't have to do a lot of editing.
Specifically, I want a variable to be the first part of the path for the filename (\\sundev1\fnd1-hypd1) and join this with the rest (\update\log\*.log or specific filename) using several different objects like the ODIFileMove, ODI OS Command, OS Command, etc.
Thank you!

Hi,
you could set up a database table holding processing parameters (i.e. Column1 - ParamName, Column2 - ParamValue).
One row could then be ParamName = FilePath, ParamValue = \\<server>\folder\
So, the refreshing query (attached to a logical schema) would be something like SELECT ParamValue FROM <your table> WHERE ParamName ='FilePath'
Then, create a variable which can refresh from the database and in the package, drop the variable onto the flow and set it's type to 'Refresh Variable' in the properties.
Hope this helps.

File to file with out message mapping and using variable substitution

Hi,
Can any one send me a scenario where we can have file to file scenario with out message mapping and where i can use variable substitution.
As of now i am using integrate configurations where i cant use variable substitution as the message does not reflect in integration engine. I need to populate time stamp between <filename><timestamp>.txt.pgp
I am as of now using configuration scenario.
The time stamp always writes before the last file extension.
Let me know your thoughts?
Thanks,
Chandra.

Hi Chandra,
u can use the Variable substitution even without IR contents also(Mapping....).
in the receiver communication channel just specify the path u want to access for a value...
eg: filename payload:mt_name,1,records,1,name,1
and in th file name give it as %filename%.txt... or vt ever ur requirement

Using variables in WLST Script ant task

I have multiple scipts that are run using ant tasks, however, I do not want to have to enter the password every time one of these scripts is executed. Instead I would like to use the following ant task to store the password in a variable/property:
<target name="getPassword" >
     <echo message="Domain: ${domain}" />
<echo message="Username: system" />
<input message="Please enter password:" addproperty="password" />
</target>
I would then like to use that variable/property everytime a script is executed like this:
     <target name="deploy4x">
          <echo message="***** Copying 4X.ear *****" />
          <copy file="${build.path}\jar\4X.ear" todir="${apps.dir}" preservelastmodified="true"/>
          <echo message="***** Updating 4X.ear on ${domain} *****"/>
          <wlst debug="true" fileName="Deploy4X.py" executeScriptBeforeFile="true" failonerror="true" >
               <script>
                    connect('system','%s' % ${password},'%s' % $url)
               </script>
          </wlst>
     </target>
However, the script blows up every time I try to run it b/c of the connect() line. I have also tried connect('system','%s' % password, '%s' % url).
Has anyone else successfully used variables in an Ant WLST Script task?
Thanks.

Hi,
when I use *XDIM_MEMBERSET ACCOUNT AS %TEST% = BAS(REVENUE) - it work fine.
BUT ! after my first commit, it seems like the variable value is lost. And the *Xdim_memberset takes all.....
Fortunately enough, *select still contains the variable value after *commit.
Thanks,
Joergen
*Correction !
It actually works, it still contains the variable value after commit !!

Using variable in KM configuration

Hi,
I am using LKM that uses sqlldr oracle utility to load data. I don't want to use hard coded path in LKM configuration.
e.g defalut directory = /root/home/
I defined a variable V_SQLDR_DIR to store this path. The value for variable is not resolved while execution.
defalut directory = #V_SQLDR_DIR

In LKM there is a option called "default directory". I don't want to hard code this value in LKM configuration. How to use variable in LKM conf.?
This is the LKM code
SnpsSqlUnload "-driver=<%=snpRef.getInfo("SRC_JAVA_DRIVER")%>" "-URL=<%=snpRef.getInfo("SRC_JAVA_URL")%>" -user=<%=snpRef.getInfo("SRC_USER_NAME")%> -pass=<%=snpRef.getInfo("SRC_ENCODED_PASS")%> -file_format=variable -row_sep=<%=snpRef.getOption("ROW_SEPARATOR")%> "-date_format=dd-MMM-yy" -fetch_size=<%=snpRef.getOption("FETCH_SIZE")%> -field_sep=|~| "*-file=<%=snpRef.getOption("DEFAULT_DIRECTORY")%>*/<%=snpRef.getInfo("TARG_NAME")%>.dat"

Query Variable - Replacement Path

Hi all,
I would need to fill a query variable (based on calendar week characteristic) with specific list of values. I need all calendar weeks that are present in infocube, but only if key-figure > 0. So I've created a query with cal. weeks in rows and with suppressed zero rows. Output values from query contains exactly what I need.
Than I created a variable (replacement path) with reference to mentioned query. But it seems to me that the variable does not contain all values displayed in the query, but only filtered values (if I use some restriction of cal. week).
Is it possible to achieve this using replacement path at all?
If not I would appreciate any idea or experiences how to accomplish this requirement.
Many thanks,
regards,
Pavel

Hi Pavel, I didn't get your requirement 100% . Still, I would like to tell How Replacement path works.
First of all for the Source query you have given condition to restict the output of the query on particular keyfigure value > 0 ...... Right.
Now on second query, you have created the Characteristic variable with Replacement path....here some important things to look at.
while creating the variable, select Processing Type as REPLACEMENT PATH, then in the "Replacement path" Tab, give Replaced variable with.. "Query" ...and at bottom, For QUERY give the query name.
If u want RRI facility from Source Query to Target Query, then u give RRI Connection in T-Code : RSBBS....
...and now when u execute the Second Query, First the first Query will be executed and those filtered values > 0 will be passed to the Second Query's variable input...then the second query will be executed...
But, in your case check once again all settings in Variable in Second Query..and Conditions block in First Query..
It should definitely work...

Use short name path instead of long name path

This month we came accross a vulnerability which is cause by installing patches with their environment path unquote and embedded space. (long path name).
The vulnerability takes advantage of the way Windows parses directory paths to execute code.
Consider the following command line. C:\windows\system32\notepad \temp\file.txt This tells windows to
launch notepad.exe from the c:\windows\system32\ directory and pass it the argument \temp\file.txt.
Now consider this command line.
C:\program files\Microsoft Office\Winword.exe
If space is used as a delimiter, wouldn’t Windows think you are trying to execute the program C:\PROGRAM.EXE and pass it the argument “files\Microsoft Office\Winword.exe”?    Or maybe you are trying to execute “C:\Program files\Microsoft.exe”
and pass it the argument “Office\Winword.exe”? So how does it know what you are trying to do?    If the software developer places quotation marks around the path then Windows knows the spaces are spaces and not delimiters.
If the software developer fails to put the path in quotes then Windows just doesn’t know. If Windows doesn’t know then it tries to execute all the possible programs in the path. First it tries “C:\Program.exe”,   Then, it tries “C:\Program
files\Microsoft.exe”
and finally the path we intended for it to execute.
This programming error is very common because when a developer is addressing paths on the file system they are usually stored in use they are in strings the developer has used quotes once already and they often fail to consider that they need two sets of
quotes. For example, the following line would incorrectly assign the path variable.
pathvariable = “C:\Program Files\Common Files\Java\Java Update\jusched.exe”
Really, the developer needs to double quote it because they need the path to contain quotes. So they should have assigned their variable by doing something like this:
pathvariable = “\\”C:\Program Files\Common Files\Java\Java Update\jusched.exe\\””
In the first case, an attacker can strategically place a program in the path and his program will be executed instead of the intended program.   If the process runs under administrative privileges or some account other than the attacker it can
be used to cause code to execute under a different set of privileges.
So the question is..... since Windows 95, when creating a bin path both long and short path name are created if enable in the registry
For example lets take this example...
The OS will create enviroment variable for pointing to long path name C:\Program Files\crapy.exe
and also create a short path name for C:\Progra~1\crapy.exe
So how can I tell WSUS to install the path and create a environment variable to point to the executable to use the short path name instead of the long path name? Is this possible?
Or I will have to create a report of software which install the updates patches with vulnerability and request a revision of the update.
Or should I go a head identify the services which are type auto (exclude disable, manual) and code a script program and modify the enviroment path... Consequences of this approach, will I need to re-run the script if there a new software update for the third
party software and it does n't address the path problem. I will need to run the script again.
Or should I create a policy and associate the script with it, until a revision comes along.
How can I get around this vulnerability as a long term fix versus a short term fix?
Can someone tell me the best approach (mitigate) to solve this issue?
thanks

This month we came accross a vulnerability which is cause by installing patches with their environment path unquote and embedded space. (long path name).
The vulnerability takes advantage of the way Windows parses directory paths to execute code.
Consider the following command line. C:\windows\system32\notepad \temp\file.txt This tells windows to
launch notepad.exe from the c:\windows\system32\ directory and pass it the argument \temp\file.txt.
I'm not sure I'd call this a vulnerability. It's how Windows has worked since long path names were created for Windows 95. If there's an embedded space in a pathname it has to be delimited. If you don't delimit it, unpredicatable results will occur -- but
most often a "File not found" error (if you're trying to read a file), or a "File creation error" if you're trying to create a file.
Now consider this command line. C:\program files\Microsoft Office\Winword.exe
If space is used as a delimiter, wouldn’t Windows think you are trying to execute the program C:\PROGRAM.EXE and pass it the argument “files\Microsoft Office\Winword.exe”?
Yep. Although I suspect it's been a Very Long Time since anybody tried to launch Microsoft Word from the command line.
Or maybe you are trying to execute “C:\Program files\Microsoft.exe” and pass it the argument “Office\Winword.exe”?
Well, if you were, then you'd have to use the syntax as you've defined it -- with delimiters. But it's not a realistic example, given that executables don't belong in the root of the %ProgramFiles% folder anyway.
So how does it know what you are trying to do?
It's a computer. It's STUPID. It does exactly what you tell it to do ... nothing more, nothing less. The operator is the person responsible for intelligently instructing the computer to do what is desired to be done. (e.g. if you want to start a program
from the command line then use the right syntax!)
Can someone tell me the best approach (mitigate) to solve this issue?
I'll repeat my earlier thought: Use the correct syntax. :-)
Btw.... most developers don't hard code those pathnames anyway.. they use the SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES, e.g. %ProgramFiles%. Problem solved.
Other pathnames are typically stored in a registry value, and when the registry value is retrieved using API calls, the code, as a matter of habit, wraps delimiters around the string. Using delimiters when not needed is not a problem; not using them when
they are is a problem -- so -- the easy solution is to always use delimiters when you're defining pathnames in your code and you won't have a problem.
