Splitting Files into Mulitple Output Files

Hi,
I have a File (1) to File (*) scenario.
Both my input and output structures are the same
A typical input XML example would be
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<n0:FileInterfaceFCC xmlns:n0="http://kpr.com/sample">
<Item> ( occurence 0....Unbound)
<Name>TestFCC</Name> ( occurence 1 )
<Age>10</Age> ( occurence 1 )
</Item>
</n0:FileInterfaceFCC>
The output structure is the same. My requirement now is that, i would like to have separate files for each difference in <name> </name>.
How can i achieve the same. What mapping principles should I use.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Hi,
In the mapping you map your name --> splitbyvalue(ValueChanged) --> to the root of the target message. Then do the mapping.
Then in the sender communicaiton channel put no. of records per message is 1.
So on each change in name your file sender communicaiton channel will take 1 message at a time. In the file reciever communication channel you put the mode as timestamp. So for each and every change in the name you will one file. This may increase your traffic in XI.

Read multiple files and save all into one output file(AGAIN)

Hi, guys
I need your help for reading data from multiple files and save the results into one output file. When files are selected from file chooser, my program read the data line by line , do some calculations and save the result into the output. I made an array to store input files and it seems to be working fine, but when it comes to SaveFile() function, issues NullPointException message.

Sorry about the long lines.
As you can see, all input files saved in array called files, however when OpenFile1() function is called, it take input (fileName_in) as a single file not an array. I'm assuming this causes the exception.
When there's muptiple inputs, program should take each file from getFileName() to outputToFile() sequentially.
Does anybody have an idea to solve this?
Thanks a lot!!

you naming convention is confussing. you should follows Java naming convention..you have a getXXX but decalred the return type as "void"...get usully means to return something...
your code is doing too much..and hard to follows..
1. get the selected files
for each selected file
process the file and return the result
write out the result.
/** close the precious resource */
public void closeResource(Reader in){
 if (in != null){
 try{ in.close(); }
 catch (Exception e){}
/** get the total number of line in a file */
public int getLineCount(File file) throws IOException{

 while ((in.readLine() != null)
 lineCount++;
 return lineCount;
 finally{ closeResource (in); }

 try{
 in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(inFile));
 String line = null;
 while ((in.readLine() != null){
 .. do something with the line
 result.append(....);
 writeToFile(outFile, result.toString());
 finally{ closeResource (in); }
public void writeToFile(File outFile, String result) throws IOException{

Splitting file into equal sized subfiles

My code is supposed to read in a file, and split it into 5 equal sized files. However, at the moment it is only splitting it by paragraphs, skipping a newline character, for example in the text below, the line after "...liked...mainly because it doesn't feel like a studio horror film.":
"But it's a leaner, meaner animal than Wes Craven's original film. The characters are more believable, the mutants are scarier, and the whole thing is incredibly visceral! This is the first studio horror film in years that I've liked...mainly because it doesn't feel like a studio horror film.
Funny side note: A girl next to me in the theater was silently weeping through the last half of the movie. Guess it made an impression."
Here is my code:
import java.io.*;
import cs1ll4.*;
import java.util.*;
public class FileSplitter
public static void main (String [] args)
try
File file = new File(Input.readString("Input Filename:"));
FileReader fileReader = new FileReader(file);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(fileReader);
final int numOutputFiles = 5;
//final int numOutputFiles = Input.readInt("How many files?:");
int loopCounter=0;
Object currentOutputFile = null;
String s = in.readLine();
PrintWriter out0 = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(Input.readString("Output Filename:")));
PrintWriter out1 = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(Input.readString("Output Filename:")));
PrintWriter out2 = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(Input.readString("Output Filename:")));
PrintWriter out3 = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(Input.readString("Output Filename:")));
PrintWriter out4 = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(Input.readString("Output Filename:")));
PrintWriter [] fileHandles = {out0, out1, out2, out3, out4};
while (s != null)
loopCounter++;
if (loopCounter == numOutputFiles)
loopCounter=1;
fileHandles[loopCounter-1].println(s);
s = in.readLine(); //code
out0.close();
out1.close();
out2.close();
out3.close();
out4.close();
catch (Exception ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); }
}I would also like to specify the number of files which I want to split a file into, without being limited to five files...after I solve my bigger problem above, if you have any suggestions...Thanks

I have got new code which reads in a file character by character, and in it I calculate the size which I want each separate file to be. But I still dont know how to get it to print each chunk of the input file to 5 equally sized output files.

How to adjust splitted lines into one line in Text file?

Hi Guys,
I have a text file with 3 fields(comma separated): GLCode (Number), Desc1 (Char), Desc2(Char) and need to load it into BW.
My Text file looks like:
1011.00,"Mejor PC Infrastructure","This line is ok."
1012.00,"Telephone Equipment $","This line ends in next line.
1)Need to change the equipment immediately.
2)Take immediate action"
1013.00,"V1 Computer Server Infrastructure # Equip","For purchases
of components that make up the company's network, such as servers, hubs, routers etc."
1014.00,"Flash Drive","Need to provide all IT Developer"
This is how file looks like. Now I need the followings:
1. Need to remove the space and need to adjust the splitted line into one. Say here
line/record 2 is splitted into 3 lines and need to adjust in 1 line.
2. In Line 5 (Record 3) data splitted into 2 lines and need to make 1 line.
3. Need to remove bad characters.
Could someone help me please how to proceed ?
Regards,

Not quite correct by my testing. Try:
$i=0
Get-Content .\test.txt | ForEach {
If ($i%2){
("$Keep $($_)").Trim()
}Else{
$keep=$_
}$i++
Good catch!

Split records into two files based on lookup table

Hi,
I'm new to ODI and want to know on how I could split records into two files based on a value in one of the columns in the table.
Example:
Table:
my columns are
account name country
100 USA
200 USA
300 UK
200 AUS
So from the 4 records I maintain list of countries in a lookup file and split the records into 2 different files based on values in the file...
Say I have records AUS and UK in my lookup file...
So my ODI routine should send all records with country into file1 and rest to file2.
So from above records
File1:
300 UK
200 AUS
File2:
100 USA
200 USA
Can you help me how to achieve this?
Thanks,
Sam

1. where and how do i create filter to restrict countries? In source or target? Should I include some kind of filter operator in interface.
You need to have the Filter on the Source side so that we can filter records accordingly the capture the same in the File. To have a Filter . In the source data store click and drag the column outside the data store and you will have Cone shaped icon and now you can click and type the Filter.
Please look into this link for ODI Documentation -http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/data-integrator/documentation/index.html
Also look into this Getting started guide - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15985_01/doc.10136/getstart/GSETL.pdf . You can find information as how to create Filter in this guide.
2. If I have include multipe countries like (USA,CANADA,UK) to go to one file and rest to another file; Can I use some kind of lookup file...? Instead of modifying filter inside interface...Can i Update entries in the file?
there are two ways of handling your situation.
Solution 1.
1. Create Variable Country_Variable
2. Create a Filter in the Source datastore in the First Interface ( SOURCE.COLUMN = #Country_Variable)
3. Create a new Package Country File Unload
4. Call the Variable in Country_Variable in Set Mode and provide the Country (USA )
5. Next call the First Interface
6. Next call the Second Interface where the Filter condition will be ( SOURCE.COLUMN ! = #Country_Variable )
7. Now run the package .
Solution 2.
If you need a solution to handle through Filer.
1. Use this Method (http://odiexperts.com/how-to-refresh-odi-variables-from-file-%E2%80%93-part-1-%E2%80%93-just-one-value ) to call the File where you wish to create store the country name into the variable Country_Variable
2. Pretty much the same Create a Filter in the Source datastore in the First Interface ( SOURCE.COLUMN = #Country_Variable)
3.Create a new Package Country File Unload
4.Next call the Second Interface where the Filter condition will be ( SOURCE.COLUMN ! = #Country_Variable )
5. Now run the package .
Now through this way using File you can control the File.
Please try and let us know , if you need any other help.

Tab character into an output file

Hi all,
I need to put a tab character into an output file in abap.
I want to create an output file that can be opened in excel, but i dont want to call excel from abap, just create the file and open later.
the tab is what automatically delimits the columns in excel
Any Ideas ??
Please do let me know
Thanks,
Dan

Hi daniel,
1. while calling fm GUI_DOWNLOAD
2. if we give
WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'
3. then TABS will automatically come.
4. or else u can use the tab character with
5. CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB
regards,
amit m.

Splitting program into multiple files

Hi folks :)
I have a looong program. And I would like to split it into 4 files. What else do I have to do, then adding the packagename? Could I call variables from one file, that is declared in another? How? And how do i call methods in another file?

Presumably, you're using Strings and possibly even JTextPanes.
If so, you already have all the syntax you need.
Let's assume that your current class contains all the required functionality. You might want to break that up to make the code more maintainable. So, put all the gui code into GUI.java and then wrap up your data processing methods into a Processor.java file. Both of these should define publilc classes.
But now your GUI class presumably won't compile because you are trying to call methods that don't exist anymore (you've just moved them). So, in you GUI class add a Processor data member (called "dataProcessor"). Instantiate this in the GUI constructor. Now, where you were calling those methods before you need to use:
dataProcessor.someMethod(someString);You'll probably have to play around a little to make everything fit but the art of refactoring is one to be learned early.
I hope this gives you the idea you were looking for.

Splitting TempDB into multiple data files.

To avoid contention we have to split tempdb into multiple data files. But as for case suppose, there is 20 GB total space is on the drive containing 1 tempdb data file of 15 GB. And I have to create 3 more tempdb data files, and as recommendation all files
should be of same size.Then how to handle this situation and configure all data files with same size?

But as for case suppose, there is 20 GB total space is on the drive containing 1 tempdb data file of 15 GB. And I have to create 3 more tempdb data files, and as recommendation all files should be of same size.Then how to handle this situation and configure
all data files with same size?
So your goal is to have 4 tempdb files, each 5GB? Below is a sample script to accomplish the task within the 20GB space constraint.
--reduce size of existing file to 5GB
ALTER DATABASE tempdb
MODIFY FILE (NAME='tempdev', Size=5GB);
DBCC SHRINKFILE('tempdev',5120);
--add 3 new 5GB files
ALTER DATABASE tempdb
ADD FILE (NAME='tempdev2', FILENAME='D:\SqlDataFiles\tempdb2.ndf', Size=5GB);
ALTER DATABASE tempdb
ADD FILE (NAME='tempdev3', FILENAME='D:\SqlDataFiles\tempdb3.ndf', Size=5GB);
ALTER DATABASE tempdb
ADD FILE (NAME='tempdev4', FILENAME='D:\SqlDataFiles\tempdb4.ndf', Size=5GB);

Split File in File Sender

Hi,
I have a source file that can be up to 4MB's and I want to Split it for every 10,000 records in the file. I can't use "Recordsets per Message" because my file has a single Header and multiple Detail records.
Is there any way to split this message in the file sender?

i recommend you to create an xslt mapping and split the source file with it.
in the ESR first resolve all the mapping program, then call the XSLT.
so you ESR configuration will be:
Message mapping: XXXX
Opertation mapping will have two mapping: XXXX and XSLT.
here give you and example or XSL i use to split Idocs. the XSL receive and idoc WPUUMS01 with 1000 record and the XSL split it into Two.
use it as reference to solve your issue
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:ns1="http://spsa.com/POS/DailySales">
 <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
 <xsl:template match="ns1:mt_SalesValidation_response">
 <WPUUMS01>
 <xsl:for-each select="row[position() mod 500 = 1]">
 <IDOC>
 <xsl:attribute name="BEGIN">
 <xsl:value-of select="1" />
 </xsl:attribute>
 <EDI_DC40>1
 <SNDPRN>
 <xsl:value-of select="../OUT_WERKS"/>

 </EDI_DC40>
 <xsl:for-each select=".| following-sibling::row[position() < 500]">

Message Split -- File to Idoc Scenario - ( Without BPM )

I have multiple records coming to XI in a File and I have to create Multiple Idocs to R/3.
Due to Complexity of mapping I'm splitting Maaping step into 2 message Mappings.
A-->B
B-->C
In the 2nd Mapping step I'm doing message Split meaning for each Source record I'm creating multiple Idocs ( To be precise each record on the source becomes 4 idocs in the Target.
2nd Mapping step is as follows
Source 1..1
Sourcerecord 0.. Unbounded
 field1 0..1
 field2 0..1
 filed3 0..1
Target
Message 1
 Idoc 1.. Unbounded
 Idoc Structure..
Message 2
 Idoc 1.. Unbounded
Message 3
 Idoc 1.. Unbounded
Message 4
 Idoc 1.. Unbounded
So based on some criteria each record of Source will be mapped to 4 Messages ( 1 each under each Message )
Is it possible to do this without BPM?. Iam sending all these Idocs to same R/3 System.
Thanks for any help..RK

Hi,
See the blog
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/12/04/xi-idoc-bundling--the-trick-with-the-occurance-change
Basicly we have 2 ways of handling such scenarios:
- we can use a block step and send multiple IDOCs from our BPM
- we can also do a little trick and send multiple IDOCs from the XI without a BPM
The first approach is a standard XI approach. It involves the use of a BPM
so the speed of this transfer many not be very good in case you'd like to send
hundreds or thousands of IDOCs in just one call.
The second approach uses a little trick that was mentioned several times
on the XI Froum by a number of XI developers but is still not very clear to the XI newbies.
It allows us to send multiple IDOCs without the use of a BPM. Most probably this will be your choice
if you'd like to use such 1:N (IDOCs) scenarios effectively.
Please see the bwlow threads also..

Split File Error !!

Dear Experts,
Newly I installed SAP BPC 5.1 with SQL 2005.
I am trying to create new Dimension & Process dimension Its showing "Split File Error".
And Whilw clicking on "Save to Server" for dimension Its showing error message "Split File Error".
Please help me,
Thanks in advance

If you go into the spread sheet where the members are defined for that dimension
Goto the bottom of the data and highlight all the empty cells to the bottom of the spreadsheet and then find "clear all" in excel (not easy in 2007!)
I've found this usually fixes this but you may have to do it a few times as BPC holds onto excel processes. Might be worth killing all excel processes from task manager each time you do it as well

Hi Gurus,
I have an input file and i need to split it into multiple files based on a particular field in the record.I want to achieve this in easier way without using BPM.How do i go about?Please guide me.

SXDA split files for RMDATIND - First record in sequential file & not a session record (type 0)

Hi gurus,
I'm trying to perform a mass upload of material master records and for this I've have setup a Data Transfer Project in SXDA with the purpose of splitting an LSMW input file into multiple. The file split task is using Data Load Program:
Object Type: BUS1001006
Obj. description: AD Standard Material
Program type: DINP
Program: RMDATIND
The problem I'm facing is that once the .conv (Converted Data) is split in multiple files these files are being transferred without a session record. This is causing to get the following error when running program: RMDATIND "First record in sequential file & not a session record (type 0)"
So the questions is: How can I specify in SXDA that I want to keep that session record in all my split files?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Chris ,
try to re create logical file path/files for converted data.

Prabhu

Help needed in splitting files using BPM

Hello experts,
I am working on an interface where i need to split files within BPM.
I know,i can achieve it in Message Mapping by mapping Recordset to Target structure and then using Interface Mapping within Transformation step.But i dont want to follow this.Is there an alternative way to achieve this within BPM.
I have an input file with multiple headers and i need to split for each header.My input file looks like this:
HXXXXXABCDVN01
MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
SXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
HXXXXXABCDVN02
MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
SXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
HXXXXXABCDVN03
MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
SXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Is there a way, where i can specify this condition within BPM , that split files for every H.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Swathi

Hi,
have your target structure with occurence as 0...unbounded in the mapping and map the header filed to the root node (repeating parent node) of the target structure....this will create as many target messages as the header fileds....if you want to send these messages separately then use a block in BPM with ForEach option....
Splitting and Dynamic configuration can be applied in the same mapping.
Regards,
Abhishek.
