Source a file containing variable declaration in csh style into Java

Hi ALL,
How can java import a plain-text file which contains csh declaration statements, then simultaneously declare as the statements into the java program?
Below is the example that the plain-text file:
set test_1 = ('1')
set test_234 = ('2' '3' '4')
set test_abc = ('abc')
Thanks,
Alex

I have already started learning Java from the web site of Sun Java. Thanks for your advise.
However, let me explain more details what I want.
Now, I have a plain-text file, such as /mnt/source.txt, which contain statement of variable declaration as below
====================
set test_1 = ('1')
set test_234 = ('2' '3' '4')
set test_abc = ('abc')
====================
These are the csh statement.
In csh, we can use command "source [filename]" then the variable test_1, test_234 and test_abc will be declared directly. Right?
Then, now, I have this plain-text file. Also the csh statement.
However, I would use Java to declare the variable test_1, test_234 and test_abc from this file.
Thanks.
Alex

How do I convert a FrameMaker file containing both Portrait and Landscape pages into PDF?

I have recently converted to FrameMaker 9 and Acrobat 9. In the FrameMaker manual I am creating, most of the pages have Portait orientation, but some have Landscape orientation. However, when I convert the manual to PDF using Acrobat Distiller, the Landscape pages become Portrait. This wasn't a problem when I converted the manual into PDF in previous versions of Acrobat Distiller, it appeared after I installed Acrobat 9. In other words, the FrameMaker file has worked before. I have also tried this on three different computers to make sure the computer is not the problem. Does anybody have any ideas that I could try to make this work?

Jorunn, did you ever resolve this problem? If not, I've got a solution for you.
In FrameMaker, select the book you want to create a PDF of, click File > Print, and select Adobe PDF as your printer.
Click Properties and make sure you have the selections you want.
Back on the Print Setup dialog, leave the Paper and Orientation as both Letter and Portrait respectively.
On the Print Book dialog, select Print to File and browse to the correct location. Make certain to save this as a PostScript file (name.ps) and at the Safe Book As field, you want Single File selected.
Again on the Print Book dialog, click the checkbox for Generate Adobe Data and click PDF Setup. On the PDF Setup for Selected Files dialog, at the PDF Job Options, select Press Quality or make the appropriate choices for your situation for Settings, Bookmarks, Tags, and Links.
With Adobe Distiller open, File > Open and browse to the .ps file you indicated earlier. Also verify your Default Settings for the PDF are correct. When Distiller is finished, you can double-click the PDF file to open it and check that your portrait and landscape pages show correctly.

How to send 2 variable value from bash script into java.class

#!/bin/bash

donehi there,
currently i have a simple java coding ( a + b ). and i m trying to connect with bash script but this bash script coudln't Enter 2nd value (b=20) while i running for it. may i know how do i can Enter 2 value into it?

=======================================================================

That code will send both numbers on a single line in standard input to the java process. So if the process reads standard input, it will get a single line that has this in it: "10 20".
I'm guessing you're sending that whole line to Integer.parseInt. But a valid number doesn't have a space in the middle.
You should split up the line using String.split. Or use a StringTokenizer. Or a regular expression. Or you can use a java.util.Scanner. Or a java.io.StreamTokenizer. Or maybe some other stuff that has slipped my mind at the moment.

BPM and own container variables and their usage in transform

Hi folks,
I have a question about the usage of own container variables within the transform step of a BPM.
I want to know whether I can get the actual content of such a container variable within the mapping being done in the transform step.
I have been looking into this forum upon related topic(s) but somehow they all seemed to go about being able to get standard values like messageID etc within the transform step and NOT about getting your own variables ... It is clear that getting those standard variables will not work directly ( not without actually getting them into an XML payload before entering the BPM) ...
So basically I want to define global BPM variables, populate them with some content during BPM execution and then at some point reference those container variables in the mapping ( prob via java code ) in a transform step ... Is that supported ?
Regards,
Steven

Hi,
>>>So basically I want to define global BPM variables, populate them with some content during BPM execution and then at some point reference those container variables in the mapping ( prob via java code ) in a transform step ... Is that supported ?
no, this is not possible
you can only compare those varabiels with some of your message tags (in a loop step for example)

The source folder must contain a valid boot.wim file

Hi.
I have the following problem
I have downloaded MDOP2014 (en_microsoft_desktop_optimization_pack_2014_x86_x64_dvd_4130158)
I have installed the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) for Windows 8.1 Update
And then installed MSDaRT81.exe on a Windows 8.1 (with Update) machine
I have also copied the boot.wim from the "Sources" folder from the Win8.1 ISO file.
But when I start the DaRT Recovery Image Wizard an try to point to the folder with the boot.wim file, it gives me:
"The source folder must contain a valid boot.wim file"
I have tried boot.wim files from 8.1 ent, 8.1 ent with update, server 2012 R2, server 2012 R2 with update...no go
I am using boot.wim of win 7.
Any ideas????

Hi,
I found that if you point to the root directory (not the sources folder), then it finds the correct boot.wim. Specifically, I downloaded the 8.1 Enterprise evaluation ISO, then mounted the ISO (F:). When pointing to the sources folder, it gave the same error,
but when I pointed only to F:, it worked fine.
Additionally, both in the wizard and in the article 'Creating the DaRT 8.0 Recovery Image', it states:
Specify the root path of the Windows 8 <64-bit or 32-bit> install media
Hope this helps,

Source file containing lower case characters

Hi,
My source file contains lower case characters.
I've already check the tickbox for lower case characters
for the corresponding infoobject.
But still getting the same error while loading.
Anyone pls. tell me what am I missing.

To permit lower case you need to have it enabled in infoobject and also use ALL_CAPITAL in rskc . After changing the infoobject you should activate the transfer / update rules and also the data target i.e. the either infoobject / ods / infocube as the case may be as the lower case check is there in generated programs for data load which need to be adjusted.

PS Get-Content - file containing environement variable

Hello
I have an issue with a script where I have a text file containing folders and files. I get them with Get-Content and then I copy them somewhere else.
My problem is that I would like to be able to use environement variable in the text file, like D:\$env:USERNAME\Documents but when I get them through Get-Content, variable are not converted.
Is there a way to make Powershell recognizing variables in the path ?
Thanks !

Invoke-Expression is not needed in this case. I recommend the $ExecutionContext.InvokeCommand.ExpandString method instead.
-- Bill Stewart [Bill_Stewart]
I'm open to suggestions, (even though what I suggested was demonstrated and works).
I took your advice and tried your suggestion
PS C:\Users\User>
Add-Content C:\liste.txt 'D:\$env:USERNAME\Documents'
Add-Content C:\liste.txt 'D:\Documents'
$sourcelist = get-content C:\liste.txt | foreach-object {
$ExecutionContext.InvokeCommand.ExpandString($_)
There is no output? So I tried assigning it to a variable.
PS C:\Users\User>
Add-Content C:\liste.txt 'D:\$env:USERNAME\Documents'
Add-Content C:\liste.txt 'D:\Documents'
$sourcelist = get-content C:\liste.txt | foreach-object {
$Path = $ExecutionContext.InvokeCommand.ExpandString($_)
$Path
LOL, there is still no output.

Container Variable in Alert Cat

Hi,
I have a FTP To FTP scenario, where I have to handle alerts if any error occurs in PI. For Example FTP Password is changed in the Target system and not updated in the Receiver Channel. Obviously the Adapter throws an error saying the Password is wrong.
My motto is to send an alert mail to External ID with the details of the Error occurred in the XI and the name of the file for which this error occurred.
As the Container Variable are limited in the Alert Category, how can I catch the file name for which the error occurred.
Could some throw light on it.
Thanks
Azias

You can use this link to see How to raise Alerts with variables from the messages payload XI:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/13/alerts-with-variables-from-the-messages-payload-xi--updated
USE THE FOLLOWING UDF TO GET THE VALUE OF THE SOURCE FILENAME AND STORE THE VALUE OF THIS SOURCE FILENAME IN AN EXPORT PARAMETER NAMED "exportParam" declared under the Signature tab of message mapping:
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String ourSourceFileName = conf.get(key);
GlobalContainer gc = container.getGlobalContainer();
OutputParameters params= gc.getOutputParameters();
if(params.exists("exportParam") == true)
params.setString("exportParam", ourSourceFileName);
return ourSourceFileName;
Then use the value of this export parameter exportParam to raise an alert in BPM control step where you can easily use the value of this parameter in the short or long text of alert.
For this, you need to create a container variable in BPM of category SimpleType and Type as xsd:string with some name say "param".
Then in the alert text, you can make use of this parameter as &param& to get its value in alert short or long text.

How can you deny bash system access when sourcing a file?

I'm having another one of my "Linux noob" moments. This is probably easy to answer for the experienced bashers here.
I need a bash function to extract data from a PKGBUILD for use in other scripts. I want to write it in such a way that there is no significant risk when checking PKGBUILDs from possibly untrusted sources. It would be unreasonable to request the user to manually inspect every PKGBUILD when only extracting information (i.e. not building the package) and when dealing with many PKGBUILDs.
The function itself is very simple in the unsafe version:
for ARG in $@; do
source "$ARG"
echo "$pkgname $pkgver $pkgrel"
done
The reason that I want to source the file is to catch variable changes within the script (obviously missing the build function, but there are some that change outside of it). Parsing the file externally is likely to miss some changes.
How can I safely source the PKGBUILD? Ideally I want to completely limit access to the system, specifically the users home directory. Is there a way to do this as a user without write permissions? Is this what the "nobody" user is for?
I've considered using chroot but that appears to need root privileges. I want to avoid sudo.
Thanks.

Well, unsetting the PATH seems a good idea, but what if the pkgbuild contains sth like this:
pkgver=$(uname -r)
or any similar manner of dynamically generating one of the variables Xyne's interested in by using a command in a subshell? While the following works (i.e. fails as it should):
~$> OLDPATH=$PATH;export PATH="";/bin/bash -r -c 'foo=$(rm foo);foo=$(/bin/rm foo)';export PATH=$OLDPATH
/bin/bash: rm: No such file or directory
/bin/bash: /bin/rm: restricted: cannot specify `/' in command names
any legitimate use of command substitution will fail as well. Not to mention redirection, which is disabled in a restricted shell as well.
And yes, disabling (possibly) malicious bash builtins may be done as well, but it will fail as well if they are used in a legitimate way.
Using "nobody" also relies on the assumption that the user's files aren't world-writable. I think the only safe solution is using a chroot after all, but maybe I'm missing something here.

Creating file containing a RecCount of the table

I have a SP which dynamically Creates a <Table1> populate it with data. This SP is called from the SSIS package and at the end of package I'll drop the table <Table1> created in the SP.
But Before dropping it, I have to generate 2 files using the table created in the SP
1. One which gives the count of that table <table1> in file ( just count and nothing in that file)
2. A .txt file containing entire dump of that table <table1>
I have developed a CM for txt file, which dynamically constructs the file name and path( this one I have tested working) figure 2
figure1 :- ESQL1 Get the file and folder path details and execute the SP -- this working
ESQL2 Get the Name & count from the <Table1> in a package variable --This is also working
ScriptTask to construct the full path where the files to be placed --This is also working
Now what is failing is, I am not able to pass the name of the table from OLEDB using the variable to the flat file destination transformation.

Hi Neil,
If I understand correctly, you have already generate a text file that store the count of the table. Then you want to generate another file that contains all the table data in another Data Flow Task before dropping the table.
If in this scenario, I suggest we can insert another Data Flow Task connect to the current Data Flow Task. Then directly load the table data from OLE DB Source to Flat File Destination. After the Data Flow Task, we can insert Execute SQL Task to drop the
table.
If you still couldn’t execute the package successfully, please post the error message from Output windows. If there are any misunderstanding, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.
Thanks,

Loading COBOL file - blocked variable records and varying size arrays

We would like to use ODI 11g to regularly to parse and load into Oracle DB 11g complex files that originate on the MVS mainframe.
Key file characteristics are:
1. EBCDIC encoding
2. file contains blocked records - each block starts with a 4-byte Block Descriptor Word (BDW). BDW bytes 1-2 specify the block length stored as a 16-bit unsigned integer, i.e. PIC (5) COMP in COBOL.
3. each file block contains multiple variable size records - BDW is followed by 1 or more variable length records. Each record starts with a 4-bytes Record Descriptor Word (RDW). RDW bytes 1-2 specify the record length stored as 16 bit unsigned integer, i.e. PIC (5) COMP in COBOL.
4. each file record contains number of scalar fields and several varying-size arrays - COBOL OCCURS DEPENDING ON. For example:
03 SAMPLE-ARRAY-CNT PIC S9(1) COMP-3.
03 SAMPLE-ARRAY OCCURS 0 TO 5 TIMES DEPENDING ON SAMPLE-ARRAY-CNT.
05 ARRAY-CD1 PIC X(5).
05 ARRAY-CD2 PIC X(7).
05 ARRAY-AMOUNT PIC S9(3)V9999 COMP-3.
5, file contains fields stored as COBOL COMPUTATIONAL and COMPUTATIONAL-3.
6. average record lengh is 1,000 bytes and each file is about 4GB
SQL*Loader/external table functionality can handle most of these requirements on one-off basis, but collectively they present a significant challenge. The file layout can't be reversed engineered as COBOL copybook into ODI.
Does ODI have complex file parsing capabilities that could be used to (pre-)process the file, in as few passes as possible?
Thanks
Petr

Hi,
there's a couple of options here, and I've included what I think is the simplest below (using TestStand 2.0.1).
It's not exactly elegant though. What I've done is to put in a step that finds out the number of steps to load (based on an earlier decision - in this case a message popup step). I read a number from the limits file, and use this in the looping options of the property loader step that's loading the values into the array. I've done it with a fixed size array target here, big enough to take any incoming data. (Otherwise, knowing how many items you're going to load from the limits file, you could start with an empty array and re-size it prior to loading).
I've cheated slightly by using the pre-expression on the property loader step to specify where th
e data is coming from and where it's going to in the sequence on each iteration of the loop based on the Runstate.Loopindex.
Another option is to go straight into the property loader step, and keep loading properties until the Step.Result.NumPropertiesRead = 0 (remember we're only doing this one at a time)
Another idea would be to load in a value, and check it isn't a "flag" value (i.e. you'd never use say 999 in your array, so set the last element in your limits file to this, and drop out of the loop when this happens.
Further still, you've got the source code for the property loader step, so you could re-write it to make a custom step that loads an array until it fails all on its own (no looping in TestStand).
Hope this gets you going

URGENT: problem with variable-declaration while precompiling

          Hi,
          i got a problem while precompiling my webapplication.
          i got some jsp-pages, each containing following code
          <%@ include file="/header.jsp" %>
          <% button = true; %>
          [...some code...]
          <%@ include file="/footer.jsp" %>
          The variable 'button' is defined in header.jsp and
          evaluated in footer.jsp. When i run through my application without precompiling
          it, there appear NO errors, but when i try to precompile my pages, the jsp-compiler
          reports an error in footer.jsp, because in footer.jsp is the 'button'-Variable
          used, but not defined and not included (because all other pages include footer.jsp)
          How can I tell the jsp-Compiler not to check for variable declarations, or what
          else can i do to work around this problem ?
          thanks,
          Dirk Bade

Unexpected Fortran compiler behavior on variable declarations.

There are several problems concerning Sun Fortran compiler for Linux, concerning variable declarations:
(1) A variable can be declared two or more times within the same
program scope. Surprisingly, the compiler accepts this, without any error or
warning message. This is clearly a bug.
(2) There is no warning message if a variable is used but never set, even if the -w4 flag is used. This is a serious bug.
(3) There is no warning message if a variable is declared but never
used.
To illustrate the bugs, compile the following simple program:
module fooModule
implicit none
public :: add
contains
function add(x,y)
real, intent(in) :: x,y
real :: unused ! This variable is never used and never set; no warning message.
real :: add
add=x+y
end function add
end module fooModule
program TryProg
use fooModule
implicit none
real :: x
integer :: i
integer :: i ! Duplicated declaration. The compiler accepts this!
i=3
print*,i
print*,add(x,2.0) ! Variable x is used but not set; no warning message.
end program TryProg
EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
(1) Something like "ERROR: Duplicate declaration of 'i'" or "ERROR:
Symbol 'i' already has basic type of INTEGER."
(2) WARNING: Variable 'x' is used but not set.
(3) WARNING: Variable 'unused' is never used and never set.
ACTUAL BEHAVIOR:
No error or warning messages; expected one error and two warnings.
The bugs appear in all Fortran compilers for Linux, including latest release, SSX2.

declarations:

within the same

The bugs appear in all Fortran compilers for Linux,
including latest release, SSX2.You have cited a number of constraint violations. The
Fortran standard states
A processor conforms to this standard if
(3) It contains the capability to detect and report the
use within a sumitted program unit of an
additional form or relationship that is not
permitted by the numbered syntax rules or
constraints, including the deleted features
described in Annex B;
In English, this statement means that a conforming
implementation must be able to detect and report
syntax errors and constraint violations. It does not
mean that it must detect and report them by default.
Sun f95, like most other Fortran compilers, does not
give errors or warnings for the use of common
extensions by default. The option -ansi enables
the compilation mode that reports such uses.
For example, when I compile the program
PROGRAM MAIN
REAL X
REAL X
END
with the option -ansi, I get
REAL X
^
"t.f", Line = 2, Column = 1: ANSI: Use of the tab character is an extension of the Fortran standard.
REAL X
^
"t.f", Line = 3, Column = 7: ANSI: "X" has been given the REAL attribute more than once. This is nonstandard.
f90comp: 4 SOURCE LINES
f90comp: 0 ERRORS, 0 WARNINGS, 0 OTHER MESSAGES, 2 ANSI
The caret lines up with the identifer X in the output. The column
number is given as column 7, because the letter X is the seventh
character in the line.

Error while assigning Payload to container variable, Activate SXI_Cache

Hi experts,
I have a BPM-Szenario. There is a ContainerOperation where I want to fill a Container Variable with a Payload variable. Unfourtunately I get an error in TA sxi_cache: "The value of expression "&.....&" cannot serve as the source of an Assignment.
My question is, is it really unpossible to do this?
By the way: After them my bpm in sxi_cache is blocked. Also if i delete the container operation it is a lot of luck to activate my bpm.
My actions to activate the BPM are:
IR - F7 = all is ok
ID - Delete IP and Create the IP new
SLD-Cache - Activate in IR and ID
SXI_Cache - Delta and Full Cache Refresh
TA SWWL - There are no error work items
All actions do have no influence to the sxi_cache.
Are there any ideas from the experts?
Best
Mathias

Hello Mathias,
How do you assign the container varaible? Are you sure, that your XPath-expression is correct? Is your target container a simple typed container?
Best regards

How do I create an interactive PDF file with variable data

We would like to basically do a 'mail merge' of our list of customers with an interactive PDF file (including videos, menus, etc - not just form fill out and web links) to create a single PDF file that contains multiple mail pieces ... one for each customer ... with each mail piece being customized for that customer. Customizations would include different greetings (Dear Bob, Dear Dana, etc), as well as different charts based on data unique to the customer, different photographs, etc.
I've seen that InDesign and Acrobat Professional can be used to create an interactive PDF (such as from http://tv.adobe.com/watch/ask-the-adobe-ones/14-calling-rufus-about-interactive-pdf-making). However I don't understand how I can insert data from a database, csv file, excel file etc into the PDF file so that each page, or each set of pages, within the PDF can be customized.
Can anyone point me to a tool to use for this?
Thanks,
Bob Kendall

For that kind of volume and unattended operation, you want InDesign Server – which is the server/high volume edition of INDD.
