Module Development specific jars

Hi,
I would like to know what are the module specific jars that have to be deleted before deploying the ear file through NetWeaver developer studio.
Request for quick response
Thanks
Ganesh Karicharla

Hi Ganesh,
in your ear file, delete all the aii_* jar files which you have imported to compile your java ejb module...........only keep your adapter module jar files in your ear file.
Thanks,

Clarification in Module Development

Hello Friends,
 We are working on Module development.We have imported jar files i.e sda files.In ejb-j2ee-engine .xml we have included the following code..
<reference
 reference-type="weak">
 <reference-target
 provider-name="sap.com"
 target-type="service">com.sap.aii.af.svc</reference-target>
 </reference>
Now..We have imported a external DOM4j.jar file..for our programming requirement. My doubt is should i include any piece of code like the above one for my imported jar file?? as we are calling the module from Receiver Communication Channel, it is throwing an error regarding that DOM4j. jar file. Please help me out.
Thanks & Regards,
N.Jayanth Kumar

ModuleData.getPrincipalData returns null in the adapter module development

Hi gurus,
i am doing a test on the adapter module development following an article written by William Li:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f0ac06cf-6ee2-2c10-df98-e17430ca5949?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
my problem is after the EJB has been deployed, it seems that the return of inputModuleData.getPrincipalData() is always null which makes the program can not get the xml payload from the framework.
the main process of the example has been simplified like this:
     public ModuleData process(ModuleContext moduleContext, ModuleData inputModuleData) throws ModuleException {
          Object           obj = null;
          try {
          obj = inputModuleData.getPrincipalData();
          Message     msg1 = (Message) obj;
                XMLPayload xmlpayload = msg1.getDocument();}
          catch (Exception e) {
               ModuleException me = new ModuleException(e);
               throw me;
          return inputModuleData;
after deployed, i get the following error in the adapter monitor of RWB: (my JNDI is testtest)
17.02.2012 17:13:44.643 Information Send binary file "test8.xml" from FTP server "10.18.48.150:/encrypt_test/", size 206 bytes with QoS EO

whereas if the code has been changed like this:
     public ModuleData process(ModuleContext moduleContext, ModuleData inputModuleData) throws ModuleException {
          Object           obj = null;
          try {
               obj = inputModuleData.getPrincipalData();
               Message     msg1 = (Message) obj;
               if (obj != null )
                    XMLPayload xmlpayload = msg1.getDocument();
          catch (Exception e) {
               ModuleException me = new ModuleException(e);
               throw me;
          return inputModuleData;
the file can be read by the file adapter.
i just quite confused that why the return of the getPrincipalData() is null? where is the problem? thanks
Edited by: Stephen Xue on Feb 17, 2012 5:22 AM

I'm gonna reply to myself here. I changed the processing sequence of the adapter modules in the in the FileSender channel so that my module comes first then CallSapAdapter. Then getPrincipalData() contains the message.
Hope this helps someone else.

Help required in File Adapter Module Development

Hi All,
I am working out a File to File scenario where my source file is in some different format. Please find the below sample:
<Root>
<ID>100</ID>
<NAME>SAP</NAME>
<END-Root>
Before taking this into IS, I need to change the file to a proper XML format. I need to replace "END-" with "/".
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" >
<Root>
<ID>100</ID>
<NAME>SAP</NAME>
</Root>
I think I can achive this by developing Adapter Modules. I am new to Adapter Module development.
Can you please tell me if there are any inbuilt Adapter Modules for this. If not please suggest me some relevant blogs to solve this issue. Thanks in Advance.

Hi Phani Kumar
There are more than one ways to do this. As per your timelines and skill set you can decide
1. You can use the XMLAnonymizerBean this is an inbuilt module
Check Stefen's blog
Remove namespace prefix or change XML encoding with the XMLAnonymizerBean
2. You can read this complete file in a single field and then you can create XSLT or Java mapping to parse it in a target XML you desire.
Check these

PI 7.1 Adapter Module Development - Identify SOAP Fault Message

Hi Experts,
here's a PI 7.1 Adapter Module Development issue I hope you can help me to resolve. It's about identifying SOAP fault messages.

Scenario at a glance:
Adapter Modules placed in the modules chain at request and response time in a synchronous Scenario:
- Request: SOAP Axis to RFC 
- Response and Fault Response: RFC to SOAP Axis

The issue is how to identify SOAP fault message in SOAP Axis Adapter Module in the response message:
The client gets SOAP fault messages like the follwong one:
 <SOAP:Body>
 <SOAP:Fault>
 <faultcode>SOAP:Server</faultcode>
 <faultstring>Server Error</faultstring>
 <detail>
 <ns1:exception xmlns:ns1="http://typen.geschaeftsstelle.pab.barmer.de">
 <ns1:errortext>bla bla bla ...</ns1:errortext>
 </ns1:exception>
 </detail>
 </SOAP:Fault>
 </SOAP:Body>


But when trying to access the tags faultcode and/or faultstring in the adapter module via xPath expressions I do not get them. Obviously the SOAP Fault tags are built AFTER the adapter module has been passed. So my question is:
How can I clearly/uniquely detect a SOAP fault response message (and distinguish it from a "normal" response message) in my SOAP Axis Adapter Module?

I tried it the following way:


// Check Message Payload for SOAP Fault Message via xPath expressions
...
// SOAP Fault Code
zv_xPression = zc_constXPattern.replaceFirst("&", "faultcode");
zv_soapFaultCode = XPathAPI.eval(zv_doc, (String) zv_xPression).toString();
// SOAP Fault String
zv_xPression = zc_constXPattern.replaceFirst("&", "faultstring");
zv_soapFaultString = XPathAPI.eval(zv_doc, (String) zv_xPression).toString();
// check for SOAP Fault Message
if (zv_soapFaultCode.equals("") && zv_soapFaultString.equals("")) {
 // Create Audit Log entry - NOT a SOAP Fault Message
 zv_msgText = zc_constModuleName + " 0190: xPath - OK! This message is NOT a SOAP Fault Message";
 zv_audit.addAuditLogEntry(zv_msgKey, AuditLogStatus.SUCCESS, zv_msgText);
 zv_faultCheck = false;
}
else {
 ...
 // Create Audit Log entry - SOAP Fault Message
 zv_msgText = zc_constModuleName 
 + " 0200: xPath - this message is a SOAP Fault Message. " 
 + " - Faultcode is: " + zv_soapFaultCode 
 + " - Faultstring is: " + zv_soapFaultString; 
 zv_audit.addAuditLogEntry(zv_msgKey, AuditLogStatus.ERROR, zv_msgText);
 ...
}
...

But zv_soapFaultCode and zv_soapFaultString are always empty (with other payload tags this coding works fine).

Any ideas? 
Thanx very much in advance!
Regards,
Volker

Hi Alex!
Like already mentioned I solved my problem by identifying the SOAP exception with the messageClass attribute of the PI message header. Acess code:
try {
String zv_msgClass = zv_piMsg.getMessageClass().toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
zv_msgText = zc_constModuleName
+ " E0110: Message processing terminated."
+ " Reason: Error while getting MessageClass "
+ zv_dataSource
+ e;
// create trace and audit log entry (severity ERROR) for exception
zv_location.errorT(ZV_SIGNATURE, zv_msgText);
zv_audit.addAuditLogEntry(zv_msgKey, AuditLogStatus.ERROR, zv_msgText);
ModuleException me = new ModuleException(e);
zv_location.throwing(ZV_SIGNATURE, me);
e.printStackTrace();
throw me;
} // end of try-catch-block
But I do not think this will solve your problem. I am almost sure, that something in your Axis configuration is wrong/missing. If a handler cannot be instatiated then it really may be missing. Have a look at defaultTrace.trc. Maybe you will find more suitable information about the root cause of your problem. Also have a look at NWA under software components and/or application modules if you can find/see your modules.
But there is a general issue when trying to catch PI fault messages. If e.g. the requestor tries to login with wrong userid/pasword, then you will have no chance to catch this kind of error - at least as far as I know. Because in this very early stage of PI message processing no module is called.
One last question: Did you develop your own Adapter or just an adapter module? In the first case: Is your adapter started and healthy? Have a look at RWB -> communication channel monitoring.

Volker

Module Development for XI3.0 Adapters

Hello,
we are currently trying to develop a xi 3.0 adapter module. Modules are a way to expand the functionalities of a xi adapter, in our cas the file adapter.
Our module should be used to perform a more complex transformation from flat file to xml.
We know, that we have to develop the modul as a stateless session bean, and that we have to implement some modul-interfaces.
What we are missing are some examples, code fragments and some more detailed informations.
Anybody out there, who can help us?
Thanks in advance,
Frank Winkler

There's a How-To Guide that describes Module Development (How To Create Modules for the J2EE Adapter Engine )
https://websmp105.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01200252310000071155&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202
and a sample Module comes with XI. Details are available throught the SAP Help http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e9/61e1407e858031e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
General info on the Module Processor is here
https://websmp105.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01200252310000071155&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202
The easiest way to deploy the module is through Netweaver Developer Studio. Alternatively you can go through SDM.
Hope that's a starting point.

SOAP attachment - module development?

Hi,
I have an IDOC -> SOAP scenario where I have to call a webservice that uses SOAP attachment.
Example:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ueb="IBrokerInterface">
 <soapenv:Header/>
 <soapenv:Body>
 <ueb:TEBIBrokerInterface_PublishWS>
 <aClientId>TEST</aClientId>
 <aMessage>cid:file.xml</aMessage>
 <aDuplicates>0</aDuplicates>
 </ueb:TEBIBrokerInterface_PublishWS>
 </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
The "file.xml" has to be a SOAP attachment.
If I use a SOAP receiver channel how do I get the IDOC payload moved into a SOAP attachment and still keep the SOAP envelope?
Can this only be done with module development?
Thanks Rasmus

Hi Rasmus,
You cannot create an attachment in mapping.
In PI 7.1 there will be a Java Mapping API for working with attachments, but the code will be similar to an adapter module. It will not be possible with XSLT.

Stefan

Hi
As per the below stack trace, looks like the root cause is for some reasons, portal framework Datasources (connection pools) are not able to connect to the Database having portal schema. Make sure that before you deploy, if possible test all the Datasources from weblogic admin console to make sure they are able to communicate with backend portal db schema. There should be a TestConnection for each portal datasource. Or may be there is some network issue preventing access to this database. Once db is connected properly and connection pool testing is fine, then deploy your portal EAR.
"...Cannot obtain XAConnection weblogic.common.resourcepool.ResourceDeadException: Pool portalDataSource has been disabled because of hanging connection tests, cannot allocate resources to applications. We waited 10010 milliseconds..."

Updating Specific Jar in an EAR file

Hi All,
Is it possible to update only some jar files in an EAR file.
This is what I wanted to do. My EAR structure is something like this-
A.ear
+ B.jar
+ APP-INF/lib/C.jar
I want to update the B.jar and C.jar with a few class files that I have. Will it be possible to; inside ear and update the specific jar.
I know if it is a single jar - then that jar -u does the trick.
Thanks much in advance,
- Anand<pre></pre>

Hi,
I haven't tried what you're asking specifically, but an EAR is, I believe, a .ZIP file with a specific directory structure. So, I'm thinking that you should be able to either:
1) Unzip the EAR, copy the new JAR (overwriting the old JAR), then re-zip to build the new EAR, or
2) Just use a ZIP tool to do an update of the JAR(s) to replaced.

Adding External Jars in Module development

Dear Friends,
 Actually i am adding an external Jar file in my EJB Module in NWDS.I am using this jar file for converting XML to flat file and i am calling this module from Receiver ommunication channel.For this process, i am importing dom4j.jar file in the EJB Module.I have created a jar file for that module,

Some issues regarding JEE adapter module development in NWDS 7.1

Hi guys,
I'm trying to develop my first AM in NWDS 7.1 and I'm facing some issues which I'd be happy if you would help me out with.
1, I'm going step by step according this document http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/c0b39e65-981e-2b10-1c9c-fc3f8e6747fa&overridelayout=true but I have an information Warning "Classpath entry PI_AF_LIBS/... (all PI AF 7.1 classes) will not be exported or published. Runtime ClassNotFOundExcpetion may result". Why am I getting this if I have checked the checkboxes with these libraries in Project->Preferences->Java Build Path->Order and Export(tab)? If this checked I'd say it will be exported with the project.
2, I need to create an SDA file to deploy the module, because the server is not available directly. So first if I'm not wrong I need to have an EAR file which I can use to create the SDA. But how can I get this EAR file? This document describes only direct way of deployment.
Thanks in advance,
Olian

1. The jars need to be referenced in the project build path to enable the compilation of the code
The warning can be overlooked as the jars are present in PI.
2. The EAR Project that gets created (as per the description in the referred document) can be exported to the get the necessary
ear file.

Adapter Module Development Hashtable entries

Hi I am developing an adapter module, I need to capture the SourceDirectory and Source file Timestamp, I am not able to capture the directory and file time stamp. Is there any way we can Print out the Hashtable entries into the audit log ???
I am using the below code
String fileName = (String) mp.get("FileName");
String Directory = (String) mp.get("SourceDirectory");
String SourceFileTimestamp = (String) mp.get("SourceFileTimestamp");

Hi,
>>>String fileName = (String) mp.get("FileName");
>>>String Directory = (String) mp.get("SourceDirectory");
>>>String SourceFileTimestamp = (String) mp.get("SourceFileTimestamp");
this approach works only for filename where did you read that it will work
for SourceDirectory or anything else?
you need to use adapter specific message arrtibutes to get that inside
an adapter module
that's the only way and it works for sure

Adapter module not including jar file

Hi all
Im trying to develop a adapter module but when I add the jar library I get warning saying:
com.sap.aii.af.cpa.svc.api.jar will not be exported or published. Runtime ClassNotFoundExceptions may result
Is there a way to fix this problem?

You can ignore it.

Best practice to integrate UPK modes in a separate eLearning module? Specifically Lectora

I have several elearning modules to develop. For richness of content (and standards in my firm) these will be built either in Lectora or in Flash. I'd like to include some process simulations in those modules.
If I use UPK to generate the simulations how do I "include" them in my elearning?
An earlier thread confirmed that you cannot generate a simulation as an SWF or similar that is easy to embed. So my current understanding is the approach needs to be:
- generate all the required UPK simulations and publish as their own SCORM/LMS module (we use iLearn+ so that shouldn't be hard)
- generate the separate elearning module and link (somehow) to the required simulation in the UPK LMS publication
If anyone's done this, or knows a better way, I'd love to know. Because I cannot find anything to explain the process. And in particular:
- how to link to a specific simulation mode (ie I want a user to click a link and immediately run the "try it" for process X, not wade through a menu of options to pick the one to run)
- how to return/exit once a simulation is completed (again, want the user to just finish and return to the main elearning module, not click through other screens, close windows, etc)
- how to pass progress/tracking back to the elearning (for example I want to know if they completed a "try it", but need to know the score if they completed a "know it").
Thanks.

The ideal way is to publish the Topics in SCORM format, then import them into your SCORM-compliant LMS and package them al up nicely. If you're not using a SCORM-compliant LMS you are in more trouble. You may be able to import a UPK LMS package into Lectora but I've never tried it.
If you just want to be able to open up a specific Topic in a specific mode, then use kp.html to get the link to a Topic, and then use this as as a Hyperlink in your training content. If you use the CLOSE parameter then once the Topic has completed the window will close and the user will be passed back to the thing the Topic was called from (i.e the hyperlink they clicked on). I've used this with Articulated PowerPoint, and set the slide to auto-advance once the user clicks on the Hyperlink, so when they return they see the NEXT slide.
e.g. http://{website}/PlayerPackage/dhtml_kp.html?guid={Document ID}&Mode={mode}&Close
where {website} is your web server, {DocumentID} is the UPK 32-character ID of the Topic, and {mode} is T for Try it, K for Know It, and so on. But get it from kp.html rather than hand-building it yourself.
Of course you need to publish to a web server (as well as whatever you are doing in Lectora / LMS) for this to work...
If you need to return a score, you need to use SCORM.
