PDFDocMerger API Deprecated mergePDFDocs Method

All,
We are trying to use the supplied PDFDocMerger API and running into some issues. When I look at the documentation it states that the mergePDFDocs method is deprecated; I do not see a replacement method. Is the documentation lacking updates and there is a new method to use or does the API simply not work anymore? I would really appreciate any insight into this issue as I need to merge PDFs and don't want to go outside the supplied API's.
Thanks in Advance,
Josh

Ok, just looked over the documentation one more time and realized process() replaces it.

Declare deprecated a method

Hello,
I need to declare deprecated a method into my classes and simply I don't know how. I've tried to use a javadoc comment @deprecated but after I compile I don't receive the message that this method is deprecated.
Thanx

Check "What happens when an API is Deprecated"
http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/guide/misc/deprecation/deprecation.html
and read the note, that says if you compile the class with the deprecated method along with classes that uses this method, then you won't get a warning. :)

Deprecated API on a method.

I am getting a deprecated API warning when using the JTextField.getText() method. How do I find what method I should use instead? Is there a list somewhere with the replacements? Does someone know what to use instead of that method?

Yeah sorry guys I was using both a JTextField and a JPasswordField and I see now that you should use the method getPassword() for that. Sorry to bother everyone!!!

R12 API for Payment Method Update at supplier site

Hi
I am using api AP_VENDOR_PUB_PKG.Update_Vendor_Site to update the Payment Method at Supplier Site level. The below code executes with no error but dont update the payment method. The requirement is to update the payment method to SEPA
Code :
DECLARE

the fnd_api.g_ret_sts_success returns value as 'U' . Means it did not completed successfully
Do I need to user following API ?
IBY_DISBURSEMENT_SETUP_PUB.Update_External_Payee instead of above API?

Hi Irfan,
thanks for reply.
we are on application version 12.1.1 .
But i have one doubt here, if we update directly ap_supplier_sites_all table, it won't impact on TCA tables know?
Thanks.

Deprecated Thread Methods

My organization has recently come from the Microsoft world into the J2EE world. In .Net, Microsoft has an abort method on threads that is similar to the Java's stop method. Unfortunately, the stop method has been deprecated.
While I have read the information on why this method is dangerous, I don't understand why the method has been removed. If I have a situation that warrants killing a thread (such as in the case of an application server that hosts other threads of execution), why remove it from the platform? While I agree with Sun's article on seeking out alternative methods, there are still exceptions where a thread just needs to be interrupted so that it can get out of a deadlock, endless loop or blocking I/O.
Since the stop method is deprecated, is there an equivalent VM call that I can interface from native code?
I must say that I feel a bit like I'm being mothered by Sun.

From your comments, you make a strong argument that suggests there's no need for a VM-level stop function.
This puzzles me because operating systems implement kill methods to terminate rogue processes, yet they remain efficient and manage to keep things clean. Granted, multiple processes don't generally share memory structures but certainly the OS, on their behalf, shares memory structures. I'm puzzled as to why similar desires/features aren't present in the JRE.
Regardless, short of running multiple JRE instances, each managing just one piece of work, the current deprecated status of the stop method renders Java without the ability to stop something that's gone wild unless the application is specifically pre-programmed to anticipate this behavior. (Of course that's a bit of a catch 22 in and of itself but...)
There is also a subscription to the notion that my company or company x can write perfect software that never hangs a Java-based application server. I feel that this is impractical -- especially when what businesses ask of IT continues to get more complex.
At this point perhaps it's fair to reveal the underlying reasons for my up-to-now, hypothetical questions. In my situation, company x is actually Sun. They failed to expose a socket timeout on their implementation of HTTPUrlConnection. I suppose that pretty much removes the luster from the argument that I, or anyone else, can write perfect software when the inventors of Java are themselves, imperfect. Of course, like you said and the JDK documents, the stop method will not abort a blocking socket read anyway (...although there's no reason why it couldn't except for more flawed design decisions...)
I've certainly investigated alternative packages but I'm just chasing a moving target. HTTPUrlConnection today, class x tomorrow. That's why I was wanting something at the framework level to provide a trap door so that recovery without terminating the JRE is possible.

MDM ABAP API exception using method invoke_matching

Hi,
I am using below calss in MDM ABAP API. If i can use small records
source (1000) target (1000) it is working fine. If i can use source (1000)
Target ( 40, 000) i am getting exception ( kernal exception ).
Please could you advise do i have to set any parameter.

Thank you Andreas its working fine. I am getting new issue
if i can filter result vs result or result vs selected or sleeted vs result.
I am passing the values in is_matching_filter.
matching_scope = 1 or 2.
selected_records = ( query record ids)
query_records = ( i am not passing anything).
1. If i can select source and target values same 2. Filter 2 vs 2
its working fine. Remaining scenarios its not working. Please
help me.

I need a solution for the deprecated readLine() method .

import java.io.*;

class UC {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
DataInputStream inFromUser = new DataInputStream(System.in);
DatagramSocket clientSocket = new DatagramSocket();
InetAddress IPAddress = InetAddress.getByName("hostname");
byte[] sendData = new byte[1024];
byte[] receiveData = new byte[1024];
while(true)
String[] sentence = inFromUser.readLine(); /* It says the readLine() method is deprecated. what is the solution for this? */
          sentence.getSubstringBytes(sentence,0, sentence.length(), sendData, 0);
//sentence.getBytes(0, sentence.length(), sendData, 0);
DatagramPacket sendPacket = new DatagramPacket(sendData, sendData.length, IPAddress, 9876);
clientSocket.send(sendPacket);
DatagramPacket receivePacket
= new DatagramPacket(receiveData, receiveData.length);
clientSocket.receive(receivePacket);
String modifiedSentence =
new String(receivePacket.getData());
System.out.println("FROM SERVER:" + modifiedSentence);

               byte[] bytes=sentence.getBytes();
               System.arraycopy(bytes,0,sendData,0,sentence.length()-0);

Sorry, It should be the BufferedReader , not BufferedInputStream.

API Help -- Extract method results in Catstrophic failure!

Hi all,
We're trying to implement the HFM api to pull data out into a CSV. When we run HsvData.Extract, the call returns an exception:
Catastrophic failure (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8000FFFF (E_UNEXPECTED))
I'm not sure what this means and I can't find any help on the 'net. Our extract call looks like:
hsvLoad.Extract(dataFilePath, logFilePath, settings);
settings is an object array that looks like this before we call Extract:
settings {object[20]}
[0] 2
[1] ";"
[2] "LogFile.log"
[3] false
[4] false
[5] false
[6] 1
[7] 2009
[8] int[12] //selected periods, 67108864 - 67108875 (Jan - Dec)
[9] int[2] // selected entities, 0 and 1
[10] int[1] //selected parents, 0
[11] int[4] //selected accounts 0 - 3
[12] int[0]
[13] int[0]
[14] int[0]
[15] int[0]
[16] int[0]
[17] int[0]
[18] false
[19] false
items 12 - 19 are default, we don't change them. The data file is empty and the log file says "0 records extracted". If I try to Extract from the UI selecting the same items (accounts, years, application, etc), I get the full results.
Can anyone tell me what the Catastrophic failure means? Are some of our settings mapped wrong? I can post additional code if that helps.
Thanks,
Shawn

Question:
Is there in the integrated planning comparably methods and can someone send me examples?

Dear Gregor,
this is an interesting question which I am confronted with myself. U indicated that there is not much need for these API's, but how do you retrieve the value of a variable within the logic of an exit function (implemented in rsplf1) in IP?
I cannot see that the normal BEx exit variable logic (I_STEP = 2 in include ZXRSRU01) would be applicable.
This used to be possible with API_SEMBPS_CHA_VALUES_GET.
Greetings,
Martin

Apt and its API deprecated as of JDK 7 build 68

Here ye, here he, apt users!
As of JDK 7 build 68, apt and its API are deprecated and both are planned for removal in the next major JDK release following JDK 7.
As the lead engineer for both apt and the standardized annotation processing in JSR 269, the JSR 269 API and tool experience with javac should be uniformly better than apt; the newer API is easier to use, more flexible, and should run faster as well. I unconditionally recommend transitioning to the JSR 269 API and javac for all your annotation processing needs.
More information on transitioning from apt to javac can be found in this blog entry:
http://blogs.sun.com/darcy/entry/an_apt_replacement

Great to see that you posted the information here.

API deprecated

Hi All,
I am doing a webdynpro application to create a report for uploading documents from KM. When i run the application, it is showing me a warning
1. com.sapportals.portal.security.usermanagement.IUserFactory is deprecated.
2. EP5User(Iuser) is deprecated
3. IUserFactory is deprecated
Can anyone tell me, Then what api should i replace here for this deprecated api?
Regards,
Divya

Try this instead:
com.sapportals.portal.security.usermanagement.IUser iuser = WPUMFactory.getServiceUserFactory().getServiceUser("cmadmin_service");
Hope this helped.

Reflection API on Invoking methods having primitive values

Hi,
I want to invoke a method say
public void setAge(int age){
this.age = age;
I am not able to invoke the method, since the Method.invoke() takes object[] as parameters and int is a primitive data type.
If you could please guide about how to invoke the same.
Thanks and Regards,
Sapan..

You just pass it an Integer instead - it figures things out from there.
Ditto it the method returns a primitive, you get the equivalent holder.
Sylvia.

Deprecated method in Environment class

Weblogic recommends the following method calls to open a secure connection to a

since 4.5. What is the replacement, and if there is none, what is the work around?
thanks,
Bob
Environment e = new Environment();
e.setProviderUrl("t3s://server2.weblogic.com:443");
e.setSSLClientCertificateFromServer();
e.setSSLServerName("server2.weblogic.com");

Deprecated methods

The following method has been deprecated. Does anyone know what it is replaced with? Also, is there a list of what has been deprecated and what the replacement method is and how to implement the replacement method?
• Warning(1886,24): setSelectedItemToStringConverter(oracle.bali.inspector.editor.ToStringConverter) in oracle.bali.inspector.PropertyEditorFactory2 has been deprecated
Thanks

Hi,
such documentation should be part of the JavaDoc unless the developer deprecating the method forgot to mention it. There is no other documentation than that to provide the information. The JavaDocs say:
* @deprecated use {@link #setEditorComponentInfo(EditorComponentInfo)} instead.
So its in the same class
Frank
ps.: Hope you know what you do because I am not sure bali classes are open for public consumption
