Uploading CSV File into Web Dynpro Java Table and Write back to a Database

Hi Gurus!
I would like to upload a csv file and read the content into an UI table element.
Then, I need to write the uploaded file back to a database. I'm using NetWeaver 2004s.
could you please provide advice for both, uploading and wirting to databse (e.g. maxDB or oracle), since I'm quite new in WDJ.

  • Reading contents of uploaded excel file in web dynpro java

    Hi All.
    I am aware how to provide facility to upload files in web dynpro java. But my requirement is that on uploading a particular file (for eg. an excel file having 10 columns), I need to read the contents of that file and store it in a table in R/3.Can anyone suggest a way how I can read the contents of the uploaded file?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Saurabh.

    Hi.
    I am having the following requirement : I have a FileUpload UI element where user clicks Browse button, selects a file from the local system and presses a Upload button. Upon pressing Upload, the name of the selected file and the contents of the file should be shown.
    In the View context, I have two value attributes: FileName of type String and FileResource of type binary.
    This is the code that I have in the Upload button action handler :
      public void onActionUpload(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
        //@@begin onActionUpload(ServerEvent)
        IWDAttributeInfo attributeInfo = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute(
                 IPrivateReadExcelView.IContextElement.FILE_RESOURCE);
        IWDModifiableBinaryType binaryType = (IWDModifiableBinaryType)attributeInfo.
                 getModifiableSimpleType();
        IPrivateReadExcelView.IContextElement element = wdContext.createContextElement();
        String fname = binaryType.getFileName();
        wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("File selected - "+fname);  //Statement 1
         try {
              wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Successful");    // Statement 2
              InputStream in = new FileInputStream(fname);
              HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook(in);
              wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Successful");    //Statement 3
              int sheetsNo = wb.getNumberOfSheets();
              for (int i=0;i<sheetsNo;i++) {
                   HSSFSheet sheet = wb.getSheetAt(i);
                   Iterator rowsNo = sheet.rowIterator();
                   while(rowsNo.hasNext()) {
                        HSSFRow rows = (HSSFRow)rowsNo.next();
                        Iterator colsNo = rows.cellIterator();
                        while(colsNo.hasNext()) {
                             HSSFCell cell = (HSSFCell)colsNo.next();
                             wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("File uploaded" +
                                  "successfully");
                             if(cell.getCellType()==1) {
                                  wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("00000"+
                                       cell.getStringCellValue());
                             else if(cell.getCellType()==0) {
                                  String str=""+cell.getNumericCellValue();
                                  wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("11111"+str);
         catch(Exception e) { wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().raisePendingException();
        //@@end
    On pressing Upload button, name of selected file is being shown(Statement 1). I am also getting Statement 2 in the output. However I am not getting Statement 3 onwards.
    Where am I going wrong? Can anyone shed some light on this?

  • File Visibility in uploading the file using web DynPro java

    hello,
    i have gone through the tutorial " uploading & downloading the file using web DynPro java".
    the upload functionalty is working fine. but i need to know thw path where these files are getting uploaded ??
    Waiting for the reply..
    Regards,
    Viren Gupta

    Hi Viren,
    Are you are refering to the below tutorial for upload and download:
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b0e10426-77ca-2910-7eb5-d7d8982cb83f?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
    If yes, then answer is that the file is stored in the context of the application only as "com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielement-definitions.Resource" object. Please read through the tutorial to understand the full process.
    WD doesn't really upload to server automatically unless there is any explicit code written. All it does is to store the file in a temp context which you can access and write your own code to store it in a particular location.

    Mahesh

  • Upload File in Web Dynpro Java CO and store it in the context

    Hi Guys!
    I have developed a web dynpro CO form, and I need to be able to upload a file in an action and then be able to download that file in further actions.. I have evaluated saving the file in the backend via RFC, in KM and also creating a CAF project.. but I think there must be a simpler way : saving it in the context of GP.
    Does someone knows if it is possible to do that?
    best regards,
    Marco.

    Hi Marco
    In webdynpro java, there are UI elements File Upload and File Download. You can use these UI's to upload and download attachments. From NetWeaver 7.0 onwards, you have IWDResource interface which can be used to upload attachments. But in GP if you want to pass attachment to another action you must use Binary as a data source. Bind the File upload UI element to Binary. In addition, you should define input and out parameters in getDescription method.
    Thanks

  • Regarding Copying of Data From Excel file to Web Dynpro Java Table

    Hi
    Can any body give Suggestions that is how to copy or import Row and Column Values in the Excel file to the Java Web Dynpro Table
    Regards
    Chandran S

    Hi,
    First u should include jxl.jar API in ur classpath.
    ind a Resource variable to FileUpload UI. Then from the Fileupload UI, u can get the Sheet variable as
    InputStream fis=wdContext.currentFileUploadElement().getResource().read(true);
    Workbook wb=Workbook.getWorkbook(fis);
    Sheet sh=wb.getSheet(0);
    This can be easily read to a table by
    for(int i=14;i<34;i++)
         String bId=sh.getCell(2,i).getContents();
         String cId=sh.getCell(3,i).getContents();
         String subj=sh.getCell(4,i).getContents();
                    IPrivate<View>.I<Table>Element el=wdContext.node<Table>().create<Table>Element();
                    wdContext.node<Table>().addElement(el);
                    el.setBID(bid);
                    el.setCID(cid);
                    el.setSUB(subj);
    This example reads the excel from row 13 to 32 and column 3 to 5 and uploaded to a table

  • Updating Database From csv File in Web Dynpro Java

    Hi Gurus,
    I'd like to write an WDJ where the (super-)user can upload a csv file and delta-update the content of this file witch an external database.
    Could you please give some me hints & examples.
    Thanks in advance,
    Farid
    ps. answers will be rewarded with points, of cource.

    Hi Farid:
    From your question it seems like you want to write a WDJ application which writes a CSV file after connecting to a database and everytime you do so, updates the file with the new record from the DB.
    For this, I wouldnt think to write an application in WebDynpro since its an over kill, unless you want to host this appln in a portal environment and want it accessible for  a set of people.
    Ideally you could use the JDK api to open a connection to the database and then then file api to write to files. You would need to use an identifier somewhere to know the last record read and written to the file.
    Incase you put in the type of db you want to connect to, i could be of more help
    Thanks,

  • Import data from excel/csv file in web dynpro

    Hi All,
    I need to populate a WD table by first importing a excel/CSV file thru web dynpro screen and then reading thru the file.Am using FileUpload element from NW04s.
    How can I read/import data from excel / csv file in web dynpro table context?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks a lot

    Hi,
    Here are the basic steps needed to read data from excel spreadsheet using the Java Excel API(jExcel API).
    jExcel API can read a spreadsheet from a file stored on the local file system or from some input stream, ideally the following should be the steps while reading:
    Create a workbook from a file on the local file system, as illustrated in the following code fragment:
              import java.io.File;
              import java.util.Date;
              import jxl.*;
             Workbook workbook = Workbook.getWorkbook(new File("test.xls"));
    On getting access to the worksheet, once can use the following code piece to access  individual sheets. These are zero indexed - the first sheet being 0, the  second sheet being 1, and so on. (You can also use the API to retrieve a sheet by name).
              Sheet sheet = workbook.getSheet(0);
    After getting the sheet, you can retrieve the cell's contents as a string by using the convenience method getContents(). In the example code below, A1 is a text cell, B2 is numerical value and C2 is a date. The contents of these cells may be accessed as follows
    Cell a1 = sheet.getCell(0,0);
    Cell b2 = sheet.getCell(1,1);
    Cell c2 = sheet.getCell(2,1);
    String a1 = a1.getContents();
    String b2 = b2.getContents();
    String c2 = c2.getContents();
    // perform operations on strings
    However in case we need to access the cell's contents as the exact data type ie. as a numerical value or as a date, then the retrieved Cell must be cast to the correct type and the appropriate methods called. The code piece given below illustrates how JExcelApi may be used to retrieve a genuine java double and java.util.Date object from an Excel spreadsheet. For completeness the label is also cast to it's correct type. The code snippet also illustrates how to verify that cell is of the expected type - this can be useful when performing validations on the spreadsheet for presence of correct datatypes in the spreadsheet.
      String a1 = null;
      Double b2 = 0;
      Date c2 = null;
                        Cell a1 = sheet.getCell(0,0);
                        Cell b2 = sheet.getCell(1,1);
                        Cell c2 = sheet.getCell(2,1);
                        if (a1.getType() == CellType.LABEL)
                           LabelCell lc = (LabelCell) a1;
                           stringa1 = lc.getString();
                         if (b2.getType() == CellType.NUMBER)
                           NumberCell nc = (NumberCell) b2;
                           numberb2 = nc.getValue();
                          if (c2.getType() == CellType.DATE)
                            DateCell dc = (DateCell) c2;
                            datec2 = dc.getDate();
                           // operate on dates and doubles
    It is recommended to, use the close()  method (as in the code piece below)   when you are done with processing all the cells.This frees up any allocated memory used when reading spreadsheets and is particularly important when reading large spreadsheets.              
              // Finished - close the workbook and free up memory
              workbook.close();
    The API class files are availble in the 'jxl.jar', which is available for download.
    Regards
    Raghu

  • Uploading excel files into Web UI

  • How to upload a file into server using j2ee jsp and servlet with bean?

    How to upload a file into server using j2ee jsp and servlet with bean? Please give me the reference or url about how to do that. If related to struts is more suitable.
    Anyone help me please!

    u don't need j2ee and struts to do file uploading. An example is as such
    in JSP. u use the <input> file tag like
    <input type="file"....>You need a bean to capture the file contents like
    class FileUploadObj {
        private FormFile srcFile;
        private byte[] fileContent;
        // all the getter and setter methods
    }Then in the servlet, you process the file for uploading
        * The following loads the uploaded binary data into a byte Array.
        FileUploadObj form = new FileUploadObj();
        byte[] byteArr = null;
        if (form.signFile != null) {
            int filesize = form.srcFile.getFileSize();

  • Portal Eventing between Web DynPro Java iView and non-Web DynPro iView

    Dear Experts,
    I have 1 Web DynPro Java iView and 1 non-Web DynPro (using JSPDynPage and JSP) iView, both attached to a page. When Web DynPro Java iView fire a portal raise event, the portal iView did not execute the javascript function tied to the event subscribed.
    Here is the code snippet which reside in the Web DynPro Java iView that is used to fire the event
    String param = "test";
    WPortalEventing.fire("urn:com.company.Test1", "TestEvent", param);
    This the code snippet that is in the jsp page
    function notifyTest(param)

    EPCM.subscribeEvent("urn:com.company.Test1", "TestEvent", notifyTest);
    Note:
    1. When Web DynPro Java iView fire the portal event the entire page is refreshed, including the non-WDP iView.
    2. When EPCM is replaced with window.top.EPCM, the page is refreshed, it is totally hanged with progress bar.
    Can anyone help to solve this problem?

    I know it may be hard to throw away all this code, but consider using the jakarta fileupload component.
    I think it would simplify your code down to
    // Create a factory for disk-based file items
    FileItemFactory factory = new DiskFileItemFactory();
    // Create a new file upload handler
    ServletFileUpload upload = new ServletFileUpload(factory);
    // Parse the request
    List /* FileItem */ items = upload.parseRequest(request);
    // Process the uploaded items
    Iterator iter = items.iterator();
    while (iter.hasNext()) {
        FileItem item = (FileItem) iter.next();
        if (item.isFormField()) {
            processFormField(item);
        } else {
            // item is a file.  write it
            File saveFolder = application.getRealPath("/file");          
            File uploadedFile = new File(saveFolder, item.getName());
            item.write(uploadedFile);
    }Most of this code was hijacked from http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/using.html
    Check it out. It will solve your memory problem by writing the file to disk temporarily if necessary.

  • Uploading CSV file into internal table

    Hi,
    I want to upload a CSV file into internal table.The flat file is having values as below:
    'AAAAA','2003-10-11 07:52:37','167','Argentina',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,'MX1',NULL,NULL,'AAAA BBBB',NULL,NULL,NULL,'1',NULL,NULL,'AR ',NULL,NULL,NULL,'ARGENT','M1V','MX1',NULL,NULL,'F','F','F','F','F',NULL,'1',NULL,'MX','MMI ',NULL
    'jklhg','2004-06-25 08:01:57','456','hjllajsdk','MANAGUA   ',NULL,NULL,'265-5139','266-5136 al 38','MX1',NULL,NULL,'hjgkid GRÖBER','sdfsdf dfs asdfsdf 380 ad ased,','200 as ads, sfd sfd abajao y 50 m al sdf',NULL,'1',NULL,NULL,'NI ',NULL,NULL,NULL,'sdfdfg','M1V','dds',NULL,NULL,
    Here I can not even split at ',' because some of the values are having value like NULL and some have values with comma too,
    The delimiter is a quote and the separator is a comma here.
    Can anyone help on this?
    Thanks.

    As long as there can be a comma in a text literal you are right that the spilt command doesn't help. However there is one possibility how to attack this under one assumption:
    - A comma outside a text delimiter is always considered a separator
    - A comma inside a text delimiter is always considered a comma as part of the text
    You have to read you file line by line and then travel along the line string character by character and setting a flag or counter for the text delimiters:
    e.g.
    "Text","Text1, Text2",NULL,NULL,"Text"
    String Index  1: EQ " => lv_delimiter = 'X'
    String Index  2: EQ T => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    String Index  3: EQ e => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    String Index  4: EQ x => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    String Index  5: EQ t => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    String Index  6: EQ " => lv_delimiter = ' ' (because it was 'X' before)
    String Index  7: EQ , => This is a separator because lv_delimiter = ' '
    String Index  8: EQ " => lv_delimiter = 'X' (because it was ' ' before)
    String Index  9: EQ T => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    String Index 10: EQ e => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    String Index 11: EQ x => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    String Index 12: EQ t => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    String Index 13: EQ 1 => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    String Index 14: EQ , => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    String Index 15: EQ T => text literal (because lv_delimiter = 'X')
    Whenever you hit a 'real' separator (lv_delimiter = ' ') you pass the value of the string before that up to the previous separator into the next structure field.
    This is not an easy way to do it, but if you might have commas in your text literal and NULL values I gues it is probably the only way to go.
    Hope that helps,
    Michael
