Structure specific properties

hi experts,
what are structure specific properties in sap bw.
I need some information about the structure specific properties.
thanks & regards
vijay

Hi,
You can do that if you go to the time characteristics tab and then select the "specify structure specific properties".
Hope this helps.

If we change cube specific properties does we need to delete data in Prod

Hi All,
We have changed cube specific properties like display of InfoObject in dev. to transport to prod does we need to delete data from cube or not required . Please help.
I am assuming that data deletion not needed as we haven't changed the structure of cube. please advise us.
Regards,
Chandra

the only reason for which data is to be deleted from a cube before an import of changes, is if a Infoobject is removed from the cube (for any reason). so in your case, no need to delete data. Anyway this is a trial and error case. leave the data and import. if the import dumps, then you have a big chance that you need to delete the data. do this and import again.
but, i don't think it's necessary in this case.

Location of application-specific properties files

I am using Tomcat 4.0.3 under WinXP Pro, and I am trying to get my
application to "find" an application-specific properties file. I am having problems trying to determine which directory to put this file in.
Here is the Java code I am using for this class:
import java.util.Properties;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
public class ForumProperties extends Properties {
 private static final String DEFAULT_FILENAME = "/WEB-INF/classes/mystuff.properties";
 private static ForumProperties globalProps;
 private ForumProperties() {
 private ForumProperties(String fileName) throws Exception {
 this();
 load(new FileInputStream(fileName));
 public static ForumProperties getInstance() throws Exception {
 try {
 if (globalProps == null)
 globalProps = new ForumProperties(DEFAULT_FILENAME);
 } catch (Exception ex) {
 ex.printStackTrace(System.out);
 throw new Exception("Error loading properties file");
 return globalProps;
}I have put the properties file in just about every directory I can think of to try and find out where it's supposed to be, but I can't get it to work. I can put the file into the "user.home" System property (which turns out to be C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator) and have it pick it up, but I would prefer to put the file into the path of the application.
I have tried four different methods to load this file:
1. load(new FileInputStream(fileName)); (same as above)
2. load(Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(fileName));
3. load(this.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(fileName));
4. load(getServletContext().getResourceAsStream(fileName));
All of them fail for not finding the file except #4, but that's not the
optimal solution as it requires a servlet context, which for "genericness of code reasons", I DON'T want to do.
As an aside, I pulled the "java.class.path" from the System properties to see where it's pointing, and all it has in it is
"<CATALINA_HOME>\bin\bootstrap.jar" with no other paths included.
Is there an attribute or something in the server.xml or web.xml file I am forgetting to set, or another approach I should be taking?
Bob

See if this code fragment helps.
 String MAIN_FILE_PATH = "./BlueGnome/demos/Properties/DemoPropertiesFile.properties";
 java.net.URL url = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResource(MAIN_FILE_PATH);
 System.out.println("PATH: resolved name = " + url);
 // Get the file.
 // We could just use FileInputStream here. Then we would have
 // to provide a path that was meaningful to the system like
 // c:\java\BlueGnome\demos\Properties\DemoPropertiesFile.properties
 // Doing it this way allows us to use generic directory
 // seperators and allows for it to search for the file using
 // the CLASSPATH. That also allows for it to be in a jar file.
 java.io.InputStream is;
 is = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(MAIN_FILE_PATH);
 if (is == null)
 throw new Exception("Resource File "
 + MAIN_FILE_PATH + " not found.");
 aProperties.load(is);

Adapter development: binary data and adapter specific properties?

Hi,
We have succesfully developed our own SFTP adapter based on the J2SSH Maverick library (http://www.sshtools.com/showMaverick.do) and the sample file adapter that comes with XI.
There are 2 features we would like to implement as well, but lack the necessary documentation and sample code.
1st Binary data
We do not succeed in transporting binary data via our SFTP adapter (both text and xml go fine). While debugging, we see that the binary data are correctly picked up, but the actual payload appearing in message monitoring is much larger. When we write the message to a file again, the data have changed (size has e.g. increased importantly from 127180 bytes to 218198 bytes). According to the sample adapter code, the contenttype "application/octet-stream" should be specified. But the standard XI file adapter itself seems to specify "application/octet-stream".
2nd Adapter specific properties (DynamicConfiguration)
How can we set adapter specific properties in our own adapter code? Where are the Java docs of the API? Is this somewhere documented?
If you would have more information (or pointers), please post it as a response to this message.
Kind regards, Guy Crets
Code snippet:
XIMessageFactoryImpl mf = new XIMessageFactoryImpl();
Message msg = mf.createMessageRecord(fromParty, toParty, fromService, toService, action, actionNS);
msg.setDeliverySemantics(DeliverySemantics.ExactlyOnce);
// In case of XML documents it is not necessary to set the contentType or encoding
// But: take care that the encoding definiton in the XML document corresponds to the encoding used
if (msgText.indexOf("<?xml") != -1)
// Check whether the payload is a XML document. If not, treat it as binary to demonstrate how
// binary main documents work
// First create a XML Payload
XMLPayload xp = null;
xp = msg.createXMLPayload();
xp.setText(msgText);
xp.setName("MainDocument");
xp.setDescription("XI AF Sample Adapter Input: XML document as MainDocument");
msg.setDocument(xp);
// In case of binary documents use the Payload super class methods to fill the XMLPayload object
else
// Check whether the payload is a XML document. If not, treat it as binary to demonstrate how
// binary main documents work
// First create a XML Payload
XMLPayload xp = null;
xp = msg.createXMLPayload();
//xp.setContentType("application/octet-stream");
xp.setContentType("application/xml");
xp.setName("MainDocument");
xp.setDescription("XI AF Sample Adapter Input: Binary as MainDocument");
xp.setContent(msgData);
// Finally set the main document in the message
msg.setDocument(xp);
TRACE.debugT(SIGNATURE, XIAdapterCategories.CONNECT_AF, "Message object created and filled.");
ModuleData md = new ModuleData();
md.setPrincipalData(msg);

Hello Moorthy,
I know this part of the documentation.
So I set the indicator within the communication channel.
Now, I have to fill the dynamic configuration during my mapping. My code looks like following:
DynamicConfigurationKey keyURL = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/HTTP", XXXXX);
// access dynamic configuration
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) param.get (StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
// set value
conf.put(keyURL, url);
So what has to be filled instead of XXXXX ?

Marc

Multi-Provider Provider-Specific Properties for Navigational Attributes

Experts,
I need to over-ride the naming for a navigational attribute in a multi-provider.
For non-navigational attributes you simply use the Provider-Specific Properties. This selection is not available for navigational attributes.
Is there a different way to apply alternative naming to navigational attributes in a Mult-Provider without affecting the global definition in the base cube.
Thanks in advance

No - the users want their own verions of the name as default
Thanks for the reply

ODS Object-Specific Properties BUG

Hi Bhanu & Experts,
I have a Variable on particular InfoObject. The RSD1 property is "Only Value in the Infoprovider".
When i use the variable from Infocube it only show the values from the Infoprovider in the Variable screen.But when i use the same variable with an ODS it shows all the values in the variable sceen.
I tried ODS Object-Specific Properties for my Infoobject in the ODS Maintenance it didn't work.
Is there any specific setting to be made to the ODS?
Any idea why the same infoobject show all the values from the master table even in the Query definition?
Thank you
Arun

Hi Bhanu,
Variable screen is really bugging me a lot.All the requirements i get is in and around this variable popup.
Don't you think the following line in the SAP Note 626887 is wrong,
The same applies to the settings to the ODS object ("Edit ODS object" under "Key fields" Context menu call for an InfoObject (right-click), ODS object-specific attributes").
Why does it tell only "Key Field" if it is whey do you need this setting for the "Data Fields"
Thank you
Arun

Reset provider-specific properties back to default

Hello community, I could use some quick help with something. I have changed the Description of an characteristic specific to a DSO (when in change mode in the DSO, right-click characteristic, select "Provider-specific properties", and change Description). I now want to reset that back to the default characteristic description.
I have tried clearing the value in Description, but that doesn't work. Any ideas how to do this?
Thanks,
Dustin

Hi,
if not yet the saved the DSO after changing description it will show old description.
after save the DSO it will show the new description.
you want old description again go to change mode -> give the old description -> save.
Thanks,
Phani.

Create taxonomies based on company-specific properties

Hello,
We have added additional company-specific and mandatory properties for file uploads, which works wonderful. But when we are creating a taxonomy based on the company-specific properties we have to create it manually.
Does anyone know if there is a way to generate taxonomies automatically based on document properties?
Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Joost Christenhusz

Hello,
I think you should have a look on our documents and tutorials in the developer area (Knowledge Management & Collaboration). Perhaps you might start with https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/6b30b090-0201-0010-829d-e988d093ac65
When you have a basic understanding of what is KMC I can help you with some details to build up taxonomies.

Infoobject Specific Properties

Hi All,
I'm trying to create a multiprovider based on an IfoCube which has the characterics with navigational attributes but when i select that infocube for the multiprovider then cube doesnt show those 2 charactericstics and the navigational attributes to drag and drop to include in the MP.
Can anyone please let me know if I'm missing anything?
Also for these 2 objects I see that under the InfoObject Specific Properties below is the selection value.
Selection = 4 not allowed
I'm not sure what exactly this property is and also whether it is restricting to show those 2 characteristics?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
PMR Reddy

Can please answer this.
"Also for these 2 objects I see that under the InfoObject Specific Properties below is the selection value.
Selection = 4 not allowed
I'm not sure what exactly this property is and also whether it is restricting to show those 2 characteristics?
Assuming as your creating new multiprovider.
You said as 24 chars are selected as navigational at cube level.
Can you the 2 info objects which your not seeing at multiprovider level have marked as navigational at cube level?
You said selection = 4? what is this and where you seen.
can you share screen shot, how your creating a multi provider.
Are you familiar with creating of multiprovider?

Provider-specific properties

Hi Experts,
What is the effect on authorization if value is set in provider-specific properties screen? For example, I set a constant value to the dimension element.

Hi Friends,
Any side effects encountered on authorization when this is set and then unset?

Is it possible to select specific properties of multiple layers at once?

I know that you can alter, opacity for example, of multiple layers at the same time by selecting the opacity property of each layer. But what if there are so many layers that you want to select a single property of many layers at once?
For example, I want to edit the value of the "mask expansion" property of a lot of layers, but don't want to go through and select "mask expansion" on every single layer. Surely there must be a way to select specific properties across multiple layers?

No, unfortunately there isn't. Such stuff is based on the property control actually being visible and being equally visibly selected. Unless you linked it with expressions, it won't sync without the properties being revealed and selected.

Application specific properties file

Hello
 Can any body help me how to build application specific properties file
 so that we can have independent application specific server with its own
 java class path environment.I read the procedure in beasys manuals but i
 could'nt understand clearly.
 Setting application-specific properties
 The weblogic.properties file is only accessible by WebLogic; that is,
 you can't add application-specific properties to the weblogic.properties
 file and expect that they will be read at startup time. However, you can
 set properties for your own application by creating a separate
 properties file. This file can be created and used in two ways:
 Put your application-specific properties file in the same directory as
 your weblogic.properties file. You can then use the following code to
 access the properties:
 Properties props = new Properties();
 String propertiesName = "myapp.properties";
 T3ServicesDef services =
 T3Services.getT3Services();
 String location =
 services.config().getProperty("weblogic.system.home") +
 java.io.File.separator + propertiesName;
 props =
 props.load(new DataInputStream(new FileInputStream(location)));
 Thanks in advance
 Ravi


Hi, Ravi.
 I think I am "WeiG".
 Basically, you can not put your own properties on weblogic.properties. Every
 property in weblogic.properties managed by WLAS is pre-registered in WLAS
 internally. WLAS will print "Fund undefined property ...." messages for the
 un-registered property in weblogic.properties files.
 To use your application-specific properties, the paragraph you read suggests
 you create your own file, put it in $WL_HOME, and use the example code to
 read your own file.
 Hope it helps.
 Cheers - Wei

Structure specific property on Infocube

Hi Gurus:
Does 'Structure specific property on Infocube' will help in query performance?
I am thinking it only helps in data loading.
If you think it helps in query perfromance, please suggest & send a link to the SAP documentation.
I will be more than happy to assign points.
Thanks

Hi M,
The structure specifc property is basically only useful in a case where your query is defined for a fixed set of values.
Suppose you have fixed the value of the charateristic to some constant.
Thus it can act as a performance improver in the case if you are using the characteriastic in the query and your query is using only for that set of values .
Then the number of records retreived for that query will be less and perfornmance will defenately improve in that case as the number of reocrds transferred will be less .
But the draw back is that you will not be able to put any restriction on those characteristics in the query designer and no drilldown is possible on such characteristics.
Hope it is clear.

How do I use a MessageSelector with application-specific properties

According to a couple of JMS references (Sun, Oreilly) and the oracle documentation (under the heading "Using Oracle Java Messaging Service (JMS) to Access AQ", page 102 of 1082 , Application Developers Guide - Advanced Queuing, Release 2 (8.1.6))
Standard JMS Features
"Message selection based on message header fields/properties"
Is there a special syntax for using application-specific (user defined) JMS message properties as message selectors in Oracle 8.1.7?
I've tried to create a message selector based on a custom property that I set, i.e. "username != 'William'". (example from O'Reilly JMS book, pg. 44)
I always get a JMS-159: Invalid selector Selector Parse error unless the property is a JMS-Defined property. i.e., " JMSMessageID = 'ID:9789D65E215B3613E034080020B1456E' " works fine.
From the docs and the oter examples, I figure application-specific (user-defined) properties are legal.
Thans for any help in advance.

Well I found an article in another forum that states in oracle 8i, message selectors are only supported on JMSCorrelationID and JMSMessageID
(9i will have/has the full JMS spec support for message selectors , or so the response to the message says)
Thanks anyway
