Read Pixels From Application
Hi. I'm working on a project for fun in which I need the values associated with pixels at certain locations on a window of an application, which may or may not be changing.
I've been looking around, but have only been able to find support for reading in pixels from a saved image. One bad way to do it would be to write a script that takes a screen shot and accesses the pixel from the saved image. However, I was hoping for a more direct way to do this because I will want to run this script many times and at a very rapid rate (the higher frequency, the better). The way I suggested would waste both processing time and memory. Is there a way to just have a script pull off the pixel value corresponding to an (x,y) coordinate relative to the entire screen?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Steve
Hi Steve--
This thread is a mess, because of all the formatting problems I was having -- not to mention that I somehow got the wrong idea of what you were after. Perhaps you could post your question again as a new thread, with whatever clarification you feel might help?
In the meantime, I've been trying to figure out exactly what you're up to and my guess is that it might be (probably is?) dynamic image editing for various animation effects. I can see that the code I posted might be useful for size animation, so I tried this with an open Preview window
(hope there are no formatting issues here):
set TargetWinName to "MyPicture.jpg"
-- you must enter the name of your window, or get script to enter it
set Wins_ to windows of application "Preview" -- you must enter relevant application
repeat with w_ from 1 to count items of Wins_
set WinName to name of item w_ of Wins_
if WinName contains " — " then set WinName to do shell script "echo " & quoted form of WinName & " | sed -e 's/(same note as before)*$//' -e 's/ — //'"
if WinName is TargetWinName then
repeat 100 times
set WinBounds to bounds of item w_ of Wins_
set bounds of item w_ of Wins_ to {item 1 of WinBounds, item 2 of WinBounds, (0.95 * (item 3 of WinBounds)), (0.95 * (item 4 of WinBounds))}
end repeat
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
For me, this essentially makes the image vanish into its upper left corner, but there are all kinds of things you might do. I'm a bit surprised that it works as well as it does, as Preview has limited scriptability.
I'm assuming (but may be wrong) that you want to do something like this with pixel color -- I don't know how to do that offhand, but I'm thinking about it. New post?

Attempt to read obj from application REPOSITORY on system REPOSITORY failed
Hi,
we have generated a transport from DEV PI to QAS PI.
This transport contains one namespace and several objects like mappings, etc.
Importing in QAS PI is shown as successful. No errors or conflicts occoured.
But when I opend the Software Component and the underlying namespace, no object is displayed.
In the default log I found following:
com.sap.aii.ib.core.roa.RoaObjectAccessException: Attempt to read object Operation Mapping OM_XXXX | http://XXXX.de/PI/RFC/XXX/AUFTRAG_ANLEGEN, type MAPPING from application REPOSITORY on system REPOSITORY failed. Object does not exist. Detailed informatio n: Object Operation Mapping OM_XXXX | http://XXXX.de/PI/RFC/XXX/AUFTRAG_ANLEGEN not found
But also the cache status is fine and the import of objects is shown with green lights.
Is there a possibility for finding the reason of the REPOSITORY issue?
Thanks in advance,
André

One of the reason for the error attempt to read object from Application REPOSITORY on system REPOSITORY failed can be due to the fact the PI system is trying to read the respository objects from the DEV environment still, instead from the QA ennvironment.
1. Check the host name for the QA system for repository and directory in Exchange profile,
2. Also check the host name for the QA system that was maintained in the SOA MANAGER setting in the NWA. This might point to the Dev system still. ( IN case you are using WS adapters in your scenarios )
You can also refer the forum thread below, which discuss about the same issue,

Ankur SharmaHi,
What actually happens? Do you get a short dump? Do you get a return code ne 0? Does it run fine but you get no data in your table?
We aren't mind-readers and can't help much without more information.
Try using transaction AL11 to see if you access the files you are trying to open.

Dynamically Reading Files From Application Server
Hi Experts,
Presently I have to write a program which reads files from the application server dynamically. This program will be scheduled in the background with the frequency of half an hour.
I am Using the function module
CALL FUNCTION 'SUBST_GET_FILE_LIST'
EXPORTING
DIRNAME = '/usr/sap/xxx/xxx/'
FILENM = 'DATASET'
PATTERN = '.txt'
TABLES
FILE_LIST = IT_FILELIST
I am facing problem in specifying the parameter FILENM in the function module,
As I have to read many files from the apps server. How to assign the parameter of function module so it can take the many files generated in the apps server.
Thanks in Advance,

Error Message while executing
What happened?
At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4102':
- a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two
codepages;
- or it was detected that this conversion is not supported
The running ABAP program 'ZHDI_LOMM_VEHI_MAT_MASS_CREATE' had to be terminated
as the conversion
would have produced incorrect data.
The number of characters that could not be displayed (and therefore not
be converted), is 449. If this number is 0, the second error case, as
mentioned above, has occurred.
Error analysis
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE', was not
caught in
procedure "F_DATA_UPLOAD" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.
Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
The reason for the exception is:
Characters are always displayed in only a certain codepage. Many
codepages only define a limited set of characters. If a text from a
codepage should be converted into another codepage, and if this text
contains characters that are not defined in one of the two codepages, a
conversion error occurs.
Moreover, a conversion error can occur if one of the needed codepages
'4110' or '4102' is not known to the system.
If the conversion error occurred at read or write of screen, the file
name was '/usr/sap/interfaces/conversion/pioneer/ddm/data/test_data1.xls'.

Hi, is it possible to retrieve an image just by reading some parameters or its pixel from a text file? If yes, could anyone give me some ideas on how to do that? How do you also retrieve a specific line or value from a text file?
Thanks.Hi Fred,
it seems you started a new thread for that very same topic - again...
Why can't you keep things in one place? Why do we have to hop between several threads of yours to get all relevant information?
"if I want to read line 13 of my text file"
Same question as in the other thread: Where do you start to count? 0 or 1?
Have you tried to wire a "13" to the ReadLine function?

Problem to read data from application server.
read dataset reads data only up tp 255 char.
her i want to read more data .
and i am executing that in background so i can not use gui_upload then what is the solution.Read datasets should be able to read any length. Are you sure it is not your program that is truncating it?
GUI_UPLOAD is a FM to read files from the presentation server (your PC), at the end, it performs READ DATASET anyways.
Please provide code example.

# problem while reading dataset from application server.
hi all,
I uplodaed a text file which is tab delimeted, to the application server using transaction code cg3z directly. now that file is stored with # in place of tab(space) in application server.
my broblem is that when i am reading that file using READ DATASET its comming with that # symbol also.
how i split that dataset .
or if there is any other solution ,like openning file into another mode,
help me.
thank uouHi Pawan..
you can access the Tab character using CL_CHAR_ABAP_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB
Do like this After READ DATASET.
DATA : V_RECORD(100).
DO.
READ DATASET P_FILE INTO V_RECORD.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
SPLIT V_RECORD INTO FIELD1 FIELD2 SEPARATED BY <b>CL_CHAR_ABAP_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.</b>

US24,Q,Acero (Carbon),AA,0010,0001,01,Ver Mir para dimension#
US24,Q,Acero (Carbon),AA,0010,0002,01,Area rectificada sin da#os ra

US24,Q,Acero (Carbon),CD,0010,0010,01,No se permite desprendimiento
US24,Q,Acero (Carbon),CD,0010,0002,01,"Vernier, cinta metrica"#
In the last line it is going into dump due to special character ".
Please suggest.
Thanks

from application server that is

Hope it helps

Read Tab delimited File from Application server
Hi Experts,
I am facing problem while reading file from Application server.
File in Application server is stored as follows, The below file is a tab delimited file.
##K#U#N#N#R###T#I#T#L#E###N#A#M#E#1###N#A#M#E#2###N#A#M#E#3###N#A#M#E#4###S#O#R#T#1###S#O#R#T#2###N#A#M#E#_#C#O###S#T#R#_#S#U#P#P#L#1###S#T#R#_#S#U#P#P#L#2###S#T#R#E#E#T###H#O#U#S#E#_#N#U#M#1
i have downloaded this file from Application server using Transaction CG3Y. the Downloaded file is a tab delimited file and i could not see "#' in the file,
The code is as Below.
c_split TYPE abap_char1 VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab.
here i am using IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS in order to avoid Conversion Error Short Dump.
OPEN DATASET wa_filename-file FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
WRITE : /,'...Processing file - ', wa_filename-file.
DO.
Read the contents of file
READ DATASET wa_filename-file INTO wa_file-data.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
SPLIT wa_file-data AT c_split INTO wa_adrc_2-kunnr
wa_adrc_2-title
wa_adrc_2-name1
wa_adrc_2-name2
wa_adrc_2-name3
wa_adrc_2-name4

wa_adrc_2-tel_extens
wa_adrc_2-fax_number
wa_adrc_2-fax_extens
wa_adrc_2-taxjurcode.
WA_FILE-DATA is having below values
##K#U#N#N#R###T#I#T#L#E###N#A#M#E#1###N#A#M#E#2###N#A#M#E#3###N#A#M#E#4###S#O#R#T#1###S#O#R#T#2###N#A#M#E#_#C#O###S#T#R#_#S#U#P#P#L#1###S#T#R#_#S#U#P#P#L#2###S#T#R#E#E#T###H#O#U#S#E#_#N#U#M#1
And this is split by tab delimited and moved to other variables as shown above.
Please guide me how to read the contents without "#' from the file.
I have tried all possible ways and unable to get solution.
Thanks,
ShrikanthHi ,
In ECC 6 if all the unicode patches are applied then UTF 16 will defintly work..
More over i would suggest you to ist replace # with some other * or , and then try to see in debugging if any further # appears..
and no # appears then try to split now.
if even now the # appears after replace statement then try to find out what exactly is it... wheather it is a horizantal tab etc....
and then again try to replace it and then split..
Please follow the process untill all the # are replaced...
This should work for you..
Let me know if you further face any issue...

Hi Experts,
How to transfer file from application server to presentation server in background?
Thanks in advance
NamitaThanks Raman and Challa,
We want to move file from application server to Shared folder, not on local machine. We checked FM which you guys have provided but those are not able to read file from application server.
We need this program to run in background so that we can use this in daily process chain.
Appreciate your inputs on this.
Thanks,
