TXT file generation

Dear all,
I was wondering what would be the best way to handle a txt file generation from SAP on a daily basis required for futher treatment by an external system.
Type of data: SD/MM
Volume of data is not that big (10 k)
Frequency once a day (night time)
Format to be issued is txt
Would a batch input be the best way?
Regards.

Hi Nozome
Can you please confirm if this query to download data from SAP to application server???
Sample code:
Suppose all the data that has to be downloaded to a text file is in internal table itab:
DATA: fname LIKE RLGRAP-FILENAME VALUE '/usr/sap/down.txt'.
OPEN DATASET fname FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
   MESSAGE E001(00) WITH 'Unable to open file.
ELSE.
   LOOP AT itab.
        TRANSFER itab TO fname.
   ENDLOOP.
   CLOSE DATASET fname.
ENDIF.
Hope this gives you some idea.
Kind Regards

XI system down due to file generation in file System

Hi All,
We are facing one issue in our XI Prod system.
Messages will get sturck in inbound queue as system is frequently getting stoped due to insufficient space in the FileSystems .
This is happening due to generation of files heapdump.phd and javacore.txt in the file system (/usr/sap/PXI/DVEBMGS03/j2ee/cluster/server0 ), which are very huge in size.
After manually clearing up the space by deleting these files and restarting the system,the system will come to normal functionality ,but again after some time we will get same issue .
Plese suggest me how can I fix this problem?
how can I stop those file generation?
Thanks and regards
Uma

Hi,
you can overcome this problem by fallowing ways.
1. you can increese interface time out time.
2. Please check in table space in sap system.
3. check the data time out for FTP system also.
Thanks

How to open and edit "*.txt" file with "Notepad"

Hello guys!
I'm facing problem with SharePoint 2010 Enterprise and got no clue how to solve it.
What I want to do is to open "*.txt" (which is placed to "Documents Library") in "Notepad", so I could edit it and save (publish) directly to SharePoint from "Notepad".
If I upload any Microsoft office File, such as "*.docx", "*.xls", etc - it works as it should - document opens in appropriate application and everybody is happy.
But, when I create documents library, put some "*.txt" file there and click on it - it opens in new browser's tab as text, so I cannot edit the file.
What I tried to do is to activate feature "Open Documents in Client Applications by Default" - not happy.
Edit "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\XML\DOCICON.XML" - I've modified "txt" entry as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<DocIcons>
    <ByProgID>
    </ByProgID>
    <ByExtension>
<Mapping Key="txt" Value="ictxt.gif" EditText="Notepad" OpenControl="SharePoint.OpenDocuments"/>
    </ByExtension>
    <Default>
        <Mapping Value="icgen.gif"/>
    </Default>
</DocIcons>
Still not happy.
So, how do I make this stuff work?

Found this link which has more information on this scenario:

Archiving TXT files in Sender File Adapter--Unformatted Way

Hello,
I am Archiving TXT files thru Sender file adapter, files are getting archived to specified directory.No issues in that.,
When i open the archived files, those are not in the correct format way that i placed before file pickup.
Header & lines got messed up side by side.
Regards

Hi,
If the file that it being archived is not transformed, it should exactly be the same as the original file.
Please make sure that you are not transforming the archive file by any means(unix script, mapping logics etc).
As suggested above, it is advisable to open the file in the editors like textpad, ultraedit etc. The difference in the alignment could be because of the notepad editor.
Try to open the original and archived files in any of those(textpad,ultraedit etc) editors and check.
Please let us know if you are still able to find the difference in the alignment.

The problem is in the delimiters in your text file. By default, Read From Spreadsheet File.vi expects a tab delimited file. You can specify a delimiter (like a space), but Read From Spreadsheet File.vi has a problem with repeated delimiters: if you specify a single space as a delimiter and Read From Spreadsheet File.vi finds two spaces back-to-back, it stops reading that line. Your file (as I got it from your earlier post) is delimited by 4 spaces.
Here are some of your choices to fix your problem.
1. Change the source file to a tab delimited file. Your VI will then run as is.
2. Change the source file to be delimited by a single space (rather than 4), then wire a string constant containing one space to the delimiter input of Read From Spreadsheet File.vi.
3. Wire a string constant containing 4 spaces to the delimiter input of Read From Spreadsheet File.vi. Then your text file will run as is.
Depending on where your text file comes from (see more comments below), I'd vote for choice 1: a tab delimited text file. It's the most common text output of spreadsheet programs.
Comments for choices 1 and 2: Where does the text file come from? Is it automatically generated or manually generated? Will it be generated multiple times or just once? If it's manually generated or generated just once, you can use any text editor to change 4 spaces to a tab or to a single space. Note: if you want to change it to a tab delimited file, you can't enter a tab directly into a box in the search & replace dialog of many programs like notepad, but you can do a cut and paste. Before you start your search and replace (just in the text window of the editor), press tab. A tab character will be entered. Press Shift-LeftArrow (not Backspace) to highlight the tab character. Press Ctrl-X to cut the tab character. Start your search and replace (Ctrl-H in notepad in Windows 2000). Click into the Find What box. Enter four spaces. Click into the Replace With box. Press Ctrl-V to paste the tab character. And another thing: older versions of notepad don't have search and replace. Use any editor or word processor that does.

Copy contents of a txt file into a transport request

I am implementing the steps of the 990534 note.
The note says "Create a new transport request (transaction SE09) in the source client of your Solution Manager system. Unpack file SOLMAN40_MOPZ_TTYP_SLMO_000.zip, which is attached to this note. Copy the contents of the SOLMAN40_MOPZ_TTYP_SLMO_000.txt file into the transport request."
can anyone tell me how can I copy the contents of a txt file into a transport request?

Hello,
I don't know the OSS note, but I think they mean, that you have to go into the object list of your transport (in transaction SE09), switch to change mode and insert the objects from the text file.
I guess the text file looks like:
R3TR PROG xyz
R3TR TABL abc

A better way to search a string in a 3GB txt file

I am looking for a string(12 characters) in a 3GB txt file. I use the file reader to go though each line and use the startwith() (that 12 characters are from the beginning of each line) to check if that line contain the string I am searching for. Is there a faster way to do it? Thank's.

I would avoid using java to parse/search a 3 GB text file at all costs. Any java solution is going to have terrible performance and you may run into memory problems. I would recomend that you either a) develop a native method for resolving this search and just invoke it from your current java class or b) use Runtime.exec to invoke a native OS command for searching the file (like grep or find) and parse the results. ....
I'm not even sure how I would complete that task with java exclusivly ... maybe break the file into smaller parts, then iterate through each smaller, temporary file ... I would really recomend storing your data in a different format if possible. A 3 GB text file just isn't very partical or secure.
... oh, to answer your original question (which I'm not sure if I all ready did), the fatest way to load the file is to wrap it into some BufferedReader. The fatest way to perform String searches is through the java.util.regex package if you have access to the 1.4 API. Other wise, just use basic String searches, as you all ready are.

How do I read txt file and add items to dropdownlist or checkbox

I want to add items to a dropdown or check box by reading from a text file(and select one of them). (I donot use any table or database). The list of items is sometimes upto 20MB and hence cannot populate using session bean.I want items to be added to either checkbox or listbox during a button action. I have done this for textarea but unable so far to acheive for checkbox or listbox. I use following code which does not work:
public String button3_action() {
try{
FileReader fr = new FileReader "F:/CreatorProjects/checkboxtst.prs");
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(fr);
String s;
while((s=br.readLine())!=null) {
dropdown1.setValue(s);
br.close();
fr.close();
}catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
I know I cant just transplant textarea code for dropdownlist or checkbox.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I have done some coding on it but dont seem to be getting the desired results. I want to take these values and put them in a 2D array.. but its not doing it. Can you see any mistakes i have done please ?

                         b++;

Yes thats because its part of larger code.. it is just a method within my code.
but your right about the catch but so yeah sorry i missed it when i copied pasted. I ve also added you a main method.

Auto delete everything but specified folder contents from txt file

Hey Guys,
I am brand new to using Powershell (like 48 hours into using it for work) and I've run into a bit of an issue. I've only taken a programming concept classes so some of the stuff makes sense to me but a lot of it is new. Basically I've made a
script that automatically deletes any files over X amount of days. My next step is to have an exceptions text that will have a list of folders that should not have its contents deleted. This is what I have so far.
$Date= Get-Date
$Days = "7"
$Folder = "C:\publicftp\users"
$LastWrite = $Now.AddDays(-$Days)
#----- getting DO NOT DELETE listing from TXT ----#
$Exceptions = Get-Content "c:\exclude.txt"
$Files = Get-Childitem $Folder -Recurse -Exclude "c:\exclude.txt" | Where {$_.LastWriteTime -le "$LastWrite"}
foreach ($File in $Files)
if ($File -ne $NULL)
Remove-Item $File.FullName -Exclude $Exceptions | out-null
I've seen a lot of threads that show how to auto delete contents or how to exclude specific file types but I haven't seen an answer to my particular problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi Rabbot,
The script below may be also helpful for you, and uses the -whatif parameter in Remove-Item cmdlet, which doesn’t actually remove anything but simply tells you what would happen if you did call Remove-Item.
$Exceptions = @()
Get-Content "c:\exclude.txt" | foreach{
$Exceptions += $_} #store the exception file to array
$Folder = "C:\publicftp\users"
$LastWrite = (get-date).adddays(-7) #over 7 days.
$Files = Get-Childitem $Folder -Recurse | Where {$_.LastWriteTime -le $LastWrite} #filter files which over 7 days.
Foreach ($file in $files){
if ($Exceptions -notcontains $file.fullname){ #if the file is not listed in the exception array.
Remove-Item $File.FullName -whatif} #use -whatif to test
I hope this helps.

Retrieving .txt file from jar for an applet

I guess this is a newbie question but i checked the tutorial sessions and i am doing exactly what it says there but still...no luck:
I'm trying to access a .txt. file stored in the .jar file where my applet .class file is stored. I'm using:
String s = "myfile.txt";
// get current Class loader
ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
FileInputStream is = new FileInputStream((cl.getResource(s)).toString());
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));But when the applet is viewer from the browser or from the appletviewer, i'm getting the FileNotFoundException:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: jar:file:\C:\FeatureSelection\sFeatureSelection.jar!\myfile.txt (The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect)
I tried to use the following instead:
FileInputStream is = new FileInputStream((myApplet.class.getResource(s)).toString());orFileInputStream is = new FileInputStream((getClass().getResource(s)).toString());but the same exception is still there.
The jar file and the html file are all stored in this directory C:\FeatureSelection\
The signed jar file is called sFeatureSelection.jar
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

One way to get at files in a jar is to put the jar in the CLASSPATH and then just refer to the resource by its path in the jar. If the same path occurs in two different jars, then you only get the first one, based on the order of the jars in CLASSPATH, I think.
The classloader is involved, which can be confusing, but an easy way to try this is:
String s = "myfile.txt";
URL u = this.class.getClassLoader().getResource(s);
Object o = u.getContent();Now, you only really know that something matched that path and now it is in a URL.
I think the Object will be a stream and you have to read() it or something.
BTW: I encourage you to examine the URL, but it is not necessary to do so.
If you have somehitng like a GIF image, then here is an example of how to work with that:
http://www.devx.com/tips/Tip/5697
Here is a way to get the bytes without involved the ClassLoader:

Take your pick.

As for the JarInputStream, i checked it out online, but i'm not too sure how i can use these methods to apply'em for my problem here. Does anyone have a sample code that uses JarInputStream?
Thanks.

Help reading a .txt file from the hard drive....

Hi guys,
Ok... I need to know how to read a .txt file from the hard drive... I have an example on how to read from a disk, but I don't have a disk drive. I could be confusing terminology, but I don't think I am. Here is the code I have for reading from a disk.. please let me know how I should change it to read from a hard drive.
Also, when the error pops up, it says that it can't read another .txt file that is not specified in the code... any ideas how that is occuring? Please advise.
import java.io.*;
public class TEST {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception{
FileReader fr = new FileReader("customer.txt");
BufferedReader bfr = new BufferedReader (fr);
String s;
while ((s=bfr.readLine())!= null){
System.out.println (s);
fr.close();
}

Ok... I need to know how to read a .txt file from the
hard drive... I have an example on how to read from a
disk, but I don't have a disk drive. I could be
confusing terminology, but I don't think I am. Here
is the code I have for reading from a disk.. please
let me know how I should change it to read from a
hard drive.The code will be the same, regardless of where the file is located. It's just the filename that will be different.
Also, when the error pops up, it says that it can't
read another .txt file that is not specified in the
code... any ideas how that is occuring? Please
advise.Probably becuase the class file (compiled version of the source code) is a different version to the source code, i.e. the source code hasn't been recompiled since the source code was changed.
How does this relate to EJBs?
