Standard Boolean Node Functions

Hi all,
The Boolean standard functions in SAP like "AND","OR" etc..
Do the input parameters for these functions need to have the same number of values and context.
Why Iam asking this is because,I used the "AND" with 2 input parameters the same number of contexts but with different amount of vaues as follows:
Input queues for "AND"
SUPPRESS
true
CC
TRUE
FinalContext
SUPRESS
false
true
false
true
CC
false
false
true
FinalContext
Output queue for "AND" looked as follows:
SUPRESS
false
true
true
CC
false
false
true
FinalContext
What about other Boolean Functions.Is there any rule regarding the context and number of values for the input or output parameters for these functions.
Regards
Koh

Property node standard error in functionality - odd behavior

I am getting what I would consider unusual behavior from a property node when there is an error on the error cluster input. The Help for the VI indicates this node has Standard Error In functionality, which I interpret as if there is an error on the input then the node does not run and the error is simply passed through to the output.
The behavior I'm getting is that the error gets passed through, but the properties of the node also get passed out with the data that was present the last time the node was called (including when it wasn't this specific node, but a different property node within the same VI that has the same property outputs).
In Psuedo code, this is what I'm doing:
Use Invoke node to call a method from a DLL (which sends a command to a device and gets its response).
Pass the method reference to a property node, which then outputs the properties of the method (the response from the device).
This works fine when everything is as it's supposed to be (device I'm communication to is connected, etc.).
If I disconnect the device completely and then run the VI again, I get the property outputs from the previous communication out of the property node, which are obviously not valid as the device isn't even connected. This happens even if the command I sent to the device is not the same; Command1 is sent and gets valid response, disconnect device, command2 is sent and I get response for command1 from the property node of command2. Command1 and command2 are in different cases of a case structure.
At first I thought there might be an issue with the DLL functionality (and there might be) reporting stale data, but before that is even an option it seems the property node shouldn't even be possible to have data output when the node is supposed to be bypassed entirely when an error is passed in.
Is this supposed to happen? Am I missing something?

Coincidentally, this week I ran into what appears to be the same behavior with the Scan from String function, and I thought of this thread. It doesn't help solve your problem, but maybe it's useful to know that this behavior happens in other built-in functions, not just Property Nodes. I started a new thread to look at this more generally.

Attach GOS attachments with a standard send mail functionality

Hi Folks,
I am here after long time and need your help.
I have a requirement where I need to attach document with a standard send mail functionality.
Below is the details:
From Quality notification 'Action Box', if the user select a perticular action (it is similar to web link), the system is sending a mail to an external mail id provided by the user (In a popup). This mail send is happening through a SAP standard functionality.
Now the requirement is, I need to attach selected file from GOS (generic Object Services) and attach them to the mail. Sending mail should happen through standard functionality.
I want to know below two points:
1) How to get selected files from GOS attachment?
2) How to attach them to mail? (only attach, sending will be done by standard functionality)
Hope I am clear with the requirement.
Please help me to get it resolved.
thanks,
Surajit

Is UDF required for this?!! or Can we manage with Node Functions?!!!

HI Gurus,
I have a requirement like below desc, Is UDF required for this?!! or Can we manage with Node Functions?!!!
Source File: ( File )
a) PO_TYPE
b) Style1
c) Style2
Note: Style1 leads to Headernode and Style2 leads to ChildNode, Style1 and Style 2 are interconnected.
Target File: ( Idoc )
a) Header Node ( EHDRNDE)
b) Child NOde ( CHLDNDE)
And my question is.... I have to populate Header Node and Child Node in target side on certain conditions of the source file. they are;
I) Whenver a different style1 comes in file...I have to create a Headernode for that in target file. Style1 can contain number of Style2 nodes with the same node. like
Ex:
i) Style1 -
Style2a, Style2b, Style2c
ii) Style1 ....... Style2aa, Style2ab.
For this above requirement, I have to create corresponding target nodes for Header ( Style1 ) and as well as for Child ( Style2)
for ex1: it should be one Header node in target and 3 corresponding child nodes
for ex2 : It should be One Header Node and 2 child nodes
For this requirement...can we use node functions....if it is...could you please help me.
....Stallin
Edited by: stallin xavier on May 1, 2008 4:18 AM

Hi,
You can do it by using node function as well as UDF also.
1) If your sequence is sorted and always come in sorted order only e.g. 1st come only style1 node and child node and then come all nodes from style 2 then u can use node function.
2) for parent node use collpse context then remove context.
3) for child node 1st differntiat according to your condition and then use split by value(value change)
4) If occurance of style1 node and style2 node is not fixed then you don't have any option you have to write UDF.
I think this will help you.

Rohit.

Node functions in Message Mapping

Hi,
Could someone help me with some good exercises for node functions such as splitbyvalue, collapsecontents, removecontexts.
I am a newbie to these functions and have absolutely no idea on how to use them. Would appreciate if someone could give very detailed examples to these functions in a step by step manner, so that I can create them just by following your instructions.
Any links to video presentations are welcome too.
Cheers,

Hi ,
For a fresher, the informationa and examples given in the help.com would be more helpful and it will help you in building string fundamentals. Once your basics and funcdamentals concepts becomes strong then you can go for more complex exmples. Here is help.sap link where you can leran Node functions of MM of PI.

Performance of an UDF v/s standard graphical mapping functions

Hello Experts,
I would like to get your opinion/comments on the performance issues with respect to speed of execution when using graphical functions for doing the date conversion requirement given below:
Requirement is to convert input date u20182008-12-03u2019 from the source side to u201820081203u2019 on the target side.
We have used the standard graphical mapping functions 'substring' & 'replacestring' for doing this conversion as explained here: The u2018substringu2018 function is used to capture the part of the string from the source. A u2018constantu2019 with value u2018u2013u2018 is replaced by u2018constantu2019 (empty value) by using the standard text function u2018replaceStringu2019 in the target side.
We did the same using the following UDF too:
public String convertDate(String dateStringInOriginalFormat) {
            SimpleDateFormat originalFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
            SimpleDateFormat newFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd");
            ParsePosition pos = new ParsePosition(0);
            Date dateFromString = originalFormatter.parse(
                        dateStringInOriginalFormat, pos);
            String dateStringInNewFormat = newFormatter.format(dateFromString);
            return dateStringInNewFormat;
From a critical performance point of view, which approach will fare better?
Thanks in Advance,
Earnest A Thomas
Edited by: Earnest Thomas on Dec 4, 2008 6:54 AM

Hi,
Not only in this case but in general it is always better to use the functions available in MM and only if your requirement is not satisfied with the standard mapping functions then go for UDF.
Also for your requirement no need of going for substring....you can directly use the DateTransform function available.
Source --> DateTransform --> Target

Advanced functions,UDF's and node function

Dear all,
Can you kindly let me know about Advanced functions,UDF's and node function.Differences and Uses.
Also Let me know about the advantages,Disadvantages of Graphical,XSLT,Java,ABAP and ABAP XSLT mappings.
Thanks,
Srini

Hi,
The term Mapping means:
1. The transformation process, and/or
2. The transformation rules.
Independently from XI, you can distinguish two different mappings
Structure mappings transform entire message structures.
Value mappings transform values within messages.
Mapping Programs to Map Messages :
Message Mapping
Designed by using the graphical mapping editor of Integration Builder
Result: Generated Java Code.
Imported Archives
Import externally defined mapping programs into repository
Java mapping:
Implemented by using a specific interface
XSLT mapping:
Runtime supports XSLT processor
Java methods can be called from within a Style Sheet
ABAP Mapping
You can execute mapping programs in a sequence
The exchange infrastructure supports three types of mappings:
Message mappings that can be designed using a graphical mapping editor in the Integration Builder. As a result, Java code is generated from the graphical representation that is compiled before it can be executed on the integration server.
You can implement your own Java mapping by implementing a specific interface of the mapping API.
You can implement an XSLT mapping
For the latter two, there is no tool support in XI. It is expected that they are developed using external development tools. To make them available for the integration server, they have to be imported into the integration repository as JAR
files before (JAR: Java Archives).
Developers can even decide to combine the different mapping technologies:
Message mappings, XSLT mappings and Java mappings can be combined in a sequence by means of an interface mapping.
XSLT mappings can use java functions
Message mappings support user-defined functions that can use imported java packages of the same namespace.
In SAP XI, there is 3 types of mappings. Namely
XSLT Mapping
Java Mapping
ABAP Mapping
Here is the details of each mapping.
XSLT Mappings (ABAP Engine)
Interface descriptions are in the form of XML documents. XSL Transformation (XSLT) is a member of the XML family of languages. It describes how an XML structure is transformed into another XML structure.
Customers can develop an XSLT mapping by using the Transformation Editor of the ABAP Workbench. Such XSLT mappings are executed at runtime on the ABAP Engine of the Integration Server.
To simplify matters, this section refers to XSLT mappings of the ABAP Engine as transformation programs to differentiate them from XSLT mappings from imported archives that are executed on the J2EE Engine.
Features
XPath and <xsl:include>
You can define mappings using XSLT together with XPath. XPath is also a specification of the XML family. Using XPath you can address any node in an XML document. XSLT implements XPath expressions to select substructures of an XML document. Using templates in XSLT you can define the mapping rules for the selected substructures.
You can use the XSLT tags <xsl:include> and <xsl:import> to include predefined templates for substructures in a complete mapping definition. In this way, you can reuse mappings for data types.
Java Mapping
You can implement mapping programs in Java. To process XML documents, use Java API for XML Processing (JAXP), for example. The JAXP supports the Document Object Model (DOM) and the Simple API for XML (SAX). This gives you great flexibility for mapping definitions with Java.
Implementation Considerations
Java mapping programs are not permitted to be stateful. You are therefore not permitted to perform actions such as writing data to a database table during a Java mapping. The Integration Server cannot track such side effects. Therefore, if an attempt is made to resend a message that has not been received by the receiver, the data may inadvertently be written to the database twice in a Java mapping.
If you use JRE classes in your Java mapping programs then the same program restrictions apply as for Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs). For a detailed description of these restrictions, see the relevant EJB specification. It is important that you also refer to the information under Scope of Functions in Runtime Environment (Java Mappings).
The runtime environment for Java mappings has an mapping API. To use Java mapping, you must define a Java class that implements the Java interface com.sap.aii.mapping.api.StreamTransformation. This interface has two methods:
● public void execute(java.io.InputStream in, java.io.OutputStream out)
At runtime, the Integration Engine calls this method to execute a mapping. This method contains an input stream for the source document and an output stream for the target document as parameters. These streams are usually XML documents. You can import the substructures to be converted from the input stream and output the converted target document in the output stream.
● public void setParameter(java.util.Map param)
The Integration Engine transfers parameters to the mapping program with this method. It evaluates these parameters at runtime in the method execute(). This enables you to control the process flow of the mapping.
The transferred object that implements the Java interface java.util.Map contains seven key/value pairs as parameters. These correspond to corresponding fields in the message header. Apart from the MAPPING_TRACE constant, the value objects are of type java.lang.String. The key objects are defined in the class com.sap.aii.mapping.api.StreamTransformationConstants
ABAP Mappings
ABAP mappings are mapping programs in ABAP objects that customers can implement using the ABAP Workbench.
Features
An ABAP mapping comprises an ABAP class that implements the interface IF_MAPPING in the package SAI_MAPPING.
Exception: CX_MAPPING_FAULT
Applications can decide themselves in the method EXECUTE how to import and change the source XML document. If you want to use the XSLT processor of SAP Web AS, you can use the ABAP Workbench to develop a stylesheet directly (see XSLT Mappings (ABAP Engine)) rather than using ABAP mappings.
Runtime Constants
In ABAP mapping you can read access message header fields. To do this, an object of type IF_MAPPING_PARAM is transferred to the EXECUTE method. The interface has constants for the names of the available parameters and a method GET, which returns the respective value for the parameter name. The constants are the same as in Java mappings, although the constant MAPPING_TRACE does not exist for ABAP mappings. Instead, the trace object is transferred directly using the parameter TRACE of the method IF_MAPPING~EXECUTE
Example: Accessing a Runtime Constant
Method IF_MAPPING~EXECUTE.
Get mapping constant SENDER_SERVICE
data: l_sender_service type string.
l_sender_service = param->get( IF_MAPPING_PARAM=>SENDER_SERVICE ).
ENDMETHOD.

How to change the elements number in Number To Boolean Array Function VI

Hi, I'm working on using the DAQ digital output to control the digital input of a DAC, and I used the Number To Boolean Array Function. VI to convert the number to a Boolean array. The maximum number should be 4096, therefore it should consist of 12 elements.
For the description of the VI, it says Boolean array returns an array of 8, 16, 32, or 64 elements, depending on the number of bits in the integer. Therefore, I change the number of the channels in task to 16, but it still doesn't work. Any suggesitions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Possible reason(s):
Write cannot be performed, because the number of channels in the data does not match the number of channels in the task.
When writing, supply data for all channels in the task. Alternatively, modify the task to contain the same number of channels as the data written.
Number of Channels in Task: 12
Number of Channels in Data&colon; 32
Task Name: _unnamedTask<1B>
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Once you have the boolean array, you can resize it using array tools. For example you can use "reshape array" with a lenght of 12 to trim the array to 12 booleans elements (you can also use array subset).

Hi,
You can define your own PF-STATUS and in that assign the function code for BACK button anything except 'BACK'.
The code would somewhat look like this:
SET PF-STATUS 'TEST'.
write : itab-col1,
itab-col2.
in the PF-STATUS 'TEST', assign the function code to BACK button as 'BCK'.
Now in your program you can use the event AT USER-COMMAND.
In this you can handle the functionality of BACK button.
Hope this helps.

Standard Remote-Enabled Function Module to display data.

Good afternoon,
Is there any Standard Remote-Enabled Function Module which can be used to display a list of material, supplier or stocks data?
First time, I was trying to use FM link to BW Extractor as MDEX_MATERIAL_MD for Material Attributes, but these kind of FM are not Remote-Enabled and not released.
My second solution is to find a Standard Remote-Enabled Function Module which can be used to display a list of material, supplier or stocks data, but I haven't it yet.
May someone help me in this?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Best regards,
Paul d'ORIGNY

Hi,
Suppose you want to read data from the vbrk table in ECC through a function module, then you can define the function module as "remote-enabled"(attribute tab in se37-processing type). You can try the following code out:
FUNCTION Z_EM_INVOICE.
*""Local Interface:*
*" IMPORTING
*" VALUE(I_FKDAT) TYPE FKDAT OPTIONAL
*" TABLES
*" E_VBRK STRUCTURE VBRK
*select * from vbrk into table*
e_vbrk where fkdat = i_fkdat.
ENDFUNCTION.
From BI you can call the function odule as follows:Supposing that you are calling the function module in the start routine of a dso:
data : v_dest_system TYPE char255.
data: l_vbrk type table of vbrk.
v_dest_system = 'DRDCLNT010'
CALL FUNCTION 'Z_EM_INVOICE''
destination v_dest_system
EXPORTING
i_fkdat = <passing variable>
e_vbrk = l_vbrk.

Anjana.
