Special characters in Application Integrator

We used the Application Integrator component to join Documentum to the Portal, everything is working OK, but if the user type a password with the special characters (&%$=+) the app. comes down, we think it is because we get the password with the function getParameter("password"), the password comes in the URL, encoding. We readed about the URL_ENCODE function, but we don't be able to use it, yet.
Thanks for any help,
Sergio Sepúlveda M.

Hi,
I would guess that the application integrator url encodes the password parameter, but that you do not do this at the documentum side.
For more information on URL encoding see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding
In java you can decode the value by using the class
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/net/URLDecoder.html
URLDecoder.decode(getParameter("password"), "UTF-8")

Special characters downloading file into application server

Dear Friends,
i have to download records into excel sheet through back ground job, while downloading records into applications server.
all records are downloading properly up to here fine but some special characters also downloading. i had downloaded same records in debugging mode from the same internal table here no special characters.
i found that the structure(standard ( /SCWM/S_LIME_ALL_MON )) which is being used in that some fields are defined as RAW data type this may be the problem.but i tried to convert them using some function modules no result getting dump only.
i am using data sets to download data into application server here gui_download will not work because it is back ground job.
can any one please help me in this. its urgent...
please please help me in this it has been pending since DEC-01-11.

Issue with special characters in SAP CRM ICSS application.

Hi ,
I have issue with the special character in CRM web application.
1. In CRM IC Webclient application(5.0) . i am copying and pasting some special characters in the description of the service request document. then this is saving the character as it is.
But when i am opening the same service request in SAP CRM ICSS(Internet Customer Self-Service) application, then the special characters are converting to different characters.
I am not sure whether this is the right forum for this or not.
Can anyone please suggest how can i correct this. Or is there any standard solution to handle the special characters in ICSS.
Thanks

sorry but without knowing about source data for forming the xml i haven't ideas about your problem
in db it's "TM " or "™" or ... ?
Original (Coming - output): "<PAY_TXT>PAYκ Contact your bank or financial institution to make this payment from your cheque, savings, debit or transaction account.</PAY_TXT>"
Something like XAE or "K" after PAY Value in the xml tag and continued the text value. (Tag value is not getting copied exactly here - i am sorry for that )
that's ok. i need to see the problem not the data as is
Expected (output): "Here it needs to produce the "PAY TM" (Here "TM" should be super scripted to "PAY" Value in tag).
as super scripted in xml?
as idea - you can have <PAY_TXT>PAY TM</PAY_TXT> and in publisher set TM as super

Special characters in text represented as squares in some applications

Some webpages I go to seem to have blank square characters in the text where there should be a special character. Curious, I went ahead and opened a binary file in my text editor, KWrite. I expected to see special characters making up most of the garbage text, but instead I got blank squares in their place, along with ASCII characters.
The special text characters I'm talking about are most of the time not even Unicode ones. These are characters that can be typed when, on Windows, you'd hold down ALT and punch in a four digit number, or if on Mac, hold down the ALT key and type a character (ie. the trademark symbol, euro currency symbol, cent symbol, etc)
There's likely something in the wiki about solving this problem, but I haven't found any answers. On a hunch, I did install the ttf-arphic-uming and ttf-dejavu packages which managed to partially resolve the problem, so I'm guessing this is a font problem, or lack of a font set, rather. Other than those 2 additional font packages, I've only got the font packages gsfonts, ttf-bitstream-vera, and xorg-fonts-{alias,encodings,misc} installed.

XML Publisher report not printing excel output due to special characters

Hello,
I am trying to create a xml publisher report which should display the output in excel. But the program completes with a warning status and the output is displayed as XML instead of excel, with some errors "An invalid character was found in text content. Error processing resource " and i think these errors are due to the special characters(eg: city/province - A Coruña, Cáceres). If i give rownum < 10 in my query, where there are no such characters it works fine and i am getting an excel output.
Tried changing the XML encoding and it doesn't help (both mentioned below)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
Do anyone have a solution for this
Thanks in advance

Application Integrator and SSO by SAPLOGONTICKET

After the docs (e.g. "How to Use the Application Integrator") and blobs mainly focus on user mapping, I wonder how to configure SAPLOGONTICKET in com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap.Generic efficiently.
Does combining "URL template" and "URL template fraction for SSO" give a chance for sending a Login Ticket to another server (distinct domain)? Or is the "authentication" part in "URL template" useless for Login Tickets (as stated in <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?threadID=21141">Thread 21141</a>)?
Thanks
Gerhard

Hi Gerhard,
If your system is set to log on with SAP logon tickets for authentication, you can specify an authentication template in parameter SSO2Template, e.g. MYSAPSSO2=<Request.SSO2Ticket>. That's all it takes on portal side to configure the SAP Logon Ticket when using application integrator. .
If you want to use SAP Logon Ticket for multiple domains (portal server and backend server are in different domains) you have to take special care. Have a look into the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/a0/88a340fa432b54e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm">SAP Library</a> to find out how to configure logon tickets for multiple domains.
Hope I could help!

Special characters in xml

Hello!
I am trying to generate XML from database by using fnd_file package. Trouble is that application NLS_LANG is not set to UTF8 and it should stay so due to the fact that a lot of custom reports written using Oracle Reports may not display special characters correctly. So i have problem with characters like 'ö','ļ'.... Is there a way to set encoding for only XML output? Also in my last efforts the output XML for some reason is concatenating a strange square shaped character into the end of file. Has anybody seen similar problem and maybe solved it?
Thanks

How can I display special characters of NonEuropean languages (French, Italian, Spanish, German and Portuguese.) using import string mechanism

I would like to translate the User Interface of my application to French, Italian, Spanish, German and Portuguese.
When I put special characters in the import string file they showed up as ? (question mark)
The import strings file includes the following parameters for each string: font, text, size and style. (but no field for script)
In order to use a unicode font such as Arial I need to select a french script. But this option is not supported bu LabView (As far as I saw)
A) Is there a font which is directly German/ French etc and not regula font + script parameter?
B) Are there another required step
s for special characters support? (When I put speciual characters in the import string file the showed up as ? question mark)

This was discussed last week in this group- read the previous messages.
Look for the thread "Foreign Languages in Labview"
And recite the mantra
ActiveX is good
ActiveX is holy
All Hail Bill
Those who claim otherwise are heretics and not to be trusted
Actually, in this case the non-ActiveX suggestions may be good.

I have a Flash Sample to rotate images and text but I not find a way to display special characters

Hello everyone.
I bought a very nice Flash application that rotate images, and text of any color and size. It use an XML input file.
I've posted here, a complete copy, so any of you can download, view and use it freely.
I would appreciate if any of you know how to do, so that the text displayed, including the characters I use in my language (Spanish), such as á, é, í, ó, ú, ñ, and other special characters.
In fact, I could not find a way to do it, because I'm not expert Flash, and less in ActionScript.
If any of you would help me on that, I thank you implement the appropriate adjustments and compressed into a. zip file, and let me know where to download it, or if you prefer you can send it to my email: [email protected]
After all compressed in .zip format is a very small file: 430K.
Click here to download the complete sample.
Thanks.

Hello Rinus,
If I understood your last post correctly, then problem 2 is resolved, right?
Regarding problem 3:
I'm not asking you to share exact VIs.
I just want to see a very simple VI that explains the concept of what you're trying to do, what should happen (this can be in words that refer to the front panel elements) and what you've tried.
The terminology you're using isn't clear to me without an extra explanation.
This could even be only a Front Panel with a few buttons on where you just describe what should happen with specific controls/indicators.
Based on the first post it is not clear to me what you mean with:
- A "button element":
Are you talking about a control, an indicator, a cluster that contains multiple control?
- The structure:
Is this an event structure, case structure, for loop, ...?
Is it seems like you want to programmatically control Front Panel objects, which on itself is no problem at all independent of how many objects you want to control.
Please share with me simple example of what goes wrong and explain which things should happen on that specific Front Panel.
This will allow me to help you and also allow me to guide you along the right path.

How to handle special characters in Apex

Hi ,
In my application I have two regions - one is Report Region (Interactive Report) and other one is HTML region with two text items - Empno and name
My Report has two columns Empno(varchar2) and Ename(varchar2).
When I click the edit link in the report column, the empno should have a read only EMPNO value and ename is a text field with ENAME value.
When I run my application I have encountered the following problems :
1. if my empno has special characters like ' # ', the characters after that is not getting displayed
2. if my empno has special characters like ',' - the characters after comma is treated as a next texitem value

Don't pass data values in URLs. Whilst it is possible to escape values to make them URL- and APEX parameter-safe, it is much better practice to avoid the problem altogether.
Create a surrogate primary key on the table that is an immutable discrete numeric identifier and only use this as a URL parameter. In target pages/regions, use this PK value to retrieve the required data from the table.

How to handle special characters in metadata?

I have an implementation in C# to call ACS webservices for a long time. Last week we realized that some special characters in metadata fields are making the package request to not work. Example characters: éë. The response from ACS contains E_ADEPT_DISTRIBUTOR_AUTH. If we remove the special character, the request works as expected.
I know that characters are working in the jar application but we can't manage to make them work from our C# application.
Any help is welcome.

Doing a SHA1-HMAC is relatively simple and there are only two inputs, the key and the message.
Since you say this works correctly with lower ascii characters, but not with Unicode characters then I would assume you have the key correct and the only thing that is different is the message. Also since it works correctly with lower ascii characters then you have the XML infoset serialization correct, so assuming a similiarly sized message (ie take one character and replace with a unicode character), then your problem is going to be in the character encoding.
I would suggest some healthy paranoia about this, by verifying that the byte stream being hashed is indeed correctly UTF8 encoded by looking at the hex values (breakpoint in the SHA1-HMAC code) and comparing to a UTF8 table such as http://www.utf8-chartable.de.

A problem with regex and special characters

Hello,
I am using regex in my application but i have a problem with special characters. Here is the explanation of what i am doing:
I have a certain piece of text that i want to parse and replace every occurrence of a given word with some sort of a tag which have the word found inside it.
so that: go Going Go to gOschool by bus and to learn and to play GO Go
and i need to replace the word "go" (case insensitive and only at word boundaries) should be:
*<start>go<end> Going <start>Go<end> to gOschool by bus and to learn and to play <start>GO<end> <start>Go<end>*
Consider the following code and call the method with the parameter"go?"
The Matcher finds a weird match at the word "G?oing" with only the letter G !!!
It also ignores the "?" in the pattern completely.
Any clue of what is happening i would be very grateful...
private static String replaceMatches(String strToFind)
        String resultArticle="";
        String article = " "+"go? G?oing Go? to gOschool by bus and to learn and to play GO? Go?*"+" ";
        strToFind = "\\b"+ strToFind +"\\b";
        String linkPart1= "<start>";
        String linkPart2 = "<end>";
        Pattern p = null;
        try{
            p=Pattern.compile(strToFind, Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE);
        Matcher m = p.matcher(article);
        String[] res = p.split(article);
        int i=0;
        //System.out.println("result of split: "+res.length );
        while(m.find())
            resultArticle+=(res[i]+" ");
            resultArticle+=linkPart1;
            resultArticle+=m.group().trim();
            resultArticle+=(linkPart2+" ");
            i++;
        if(i<res.length)
            resultArticle+=res;
//System.out.println("result of match: " + i);
System.out.println(article);
//System.out.println(resultArticle.trim()+scripts);
catch(PatternSyntaxException ex){}
return resultArticle.trim();
}Thanks

replaceAll will replace all the occurrences in the text with only one word. without taking into consideration the case of the word i need to replace.No.

If i use replacaAll(article, strToFind) the output will be:

I have a MacBook purchased in 2009 with Snow Leopard. I tried to access "special characters" from the Finder menu and an intermittent blank pop ups and will not stop. It also happens when I run Word or Pages.

The blank pop up began as I tried to access "special characters" from the finder menu. I restarted, turned off and restarted and it did not work. It interferes with any application because I cannot work fast. Every new step takes a few seconds longer such as saving, finding text, check spelling and many more. I am desperate to solve this. Thanks in advance for any help given.

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.
