Using "string-length" in STANDARD receiver determ xpath rule in PI 7.11

Hi
I have a situation, where I need to call one system, if the businesspartner value is 6 characters long and call an other system, if the length is different from 6 characters.
I am trying to use the standard receiver determination by entering this rule, but it does not work:
(string-length(/p1:ValidateUserRequest/Businesspartner)) = 6 -> system1
(string-length(/p1:ValidateUserRequest/Businesspartner)) not= 6 -> system2
Is there no way of sprucing up the standard xpath expression in the way I try?
What alternatives do I have?
Mikael

Hi,
Please try giving the XPath expression as given below:
/p1:ValidateUserRequest [string-length(Businesspartner) = 6] system1
/p1:ValidateUserRequest [string-length(Businesspartner) != 6] system 2
Please use square brackets before "string" and after "6"...its not getting displayed in my reply...:-(
Rgds,
Lekshmi.

Batch derivation with fields in receiver search strategy Rule.

Dear All,
In receiver search strategy rule i wanted to give a character, but when i do so i get the below error message.
Instead of the characteristic , use the field
Message no. VBDRV011
Diagnosis
The characteristic you entered is assigned to an object characteristic and batch field .
System Response
Object characteristics cannot be changed.
You must make changes to the corresponding batch field. These are then copied automatically to the classification.
Procedure
Instead of using the characteristic , use the field
Now this because in the character additinal data (TCode CT04) Value is coming from Table Name: MCHA and Field Name: CHARG.
Hence I decided to use the field CHARG in receiver search strategy rule. But when I did so i got the following error message
This field does not exist or is not allowed for derivation
Message no. VBDRV009
Please suggest as to how do i bring the filed in?
Regards
Vinod

Hi Vinod,
Batch derivation is used to transport characteristic value from one batch (Sender batch) to another Batch of Header material (Receiving Batch) during Production / Process Order Execution.
Now field which you have assign CHARG is non another but it is field of batch No.itself and it is not possible to change Batch No. of Receiving Batch because it is already assign and can not be change.
You can use only those characteristic or fields which represent the characteristic of Batch for example Shelf life expiry, manufacturing Date etc.

I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard version in Windows 8.1 and when I try to create a .pdf file, I receive the following error message "Acrobat could not open "file name.log" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged. To create a PDF document, go to the source application then print the document to .pdf" I am going to the source application and printing the document to .pdf yet it's saving the file as a .log file. After reinstalling the software, I initially didn't encounter this problem but on my second and third attempts to convert files to .pdf format, this error message reappeared. How do I resolve this problem?

I have a similar problem which i did not have before...and it exists only in some powerpoint files which i want to print as a pdf file...and i get the same message as above.
the log says the bellow details...what's the problem and how can i resolve it? thanks.

While trying to invoke the method java.lang.String.length() of an object loaded from local variable 'payload'

Hi,
Our PI is getting data from WebSphere MQ and pushing to SAP. So our sender CC is JMS and receiver is Proxy. Our PI version is 7.31.
Our connectivity between the MQ is success but getting the following error while trying to read the payload.
Text: TxManagerFilter received an error:

Hi Amarnath,
Where exactly you are getting this error?
If you are getting at JMS Sender communication channel, try to stop and start the JMS communication channel and see the status, also use XPI Inspector to get the exact error log.
for reference follow below blogs:

We have found that in ODSI 10gR3, the code pattern below is not pushed down if $logicalExpression is an expression that compares two atomic values and one of the values is a constant (used to work in ALDSP 2.5):
where $logicalExpression or $table/column = $input
Sample code that is not pushed down as expected:
where fn:string-length($accountNumber) _<= 0_ or $account/ACCT_NUM = $accountNumber
where fn:empty($accountNumber) or $accountNumber _= ''_ or $account/ACCT_NUM = $accountNumber
where fn:empty($clientId) or $clientId _= 0_ or $account/CLIENT_ID = $clientId
where fn:empty($effectiveDate) or $effectiveDate _= xs:date('0001-01-01')_ or $account/ACCT_EFF_DT = $effectiveDate
We have also found that a workaround is to tweak the code and replace $logicalExpression with something that can be pushed down and functionally equivalent (using fn:not, fn-bea:fence, fn:exactly-one, etc.).
Code that works:
where fn:not(fn:string-length($accountNumber) > 0) or $account/ACCT_NUM = $accountNumber
where fn-bea:fence(fn:string-length($accountNumber) <= 0) or $account/ACCT_NUM = $accountNumber
where fn:exactly-one(fn:string-length($accountNumber) <= 0) or $account/ACCT_NUM = $accountNumber
After examining the query plans, it appears to me (please correct me if any of these is not true):
- Comparators for atomic types ({http://www.bea.com/xquery/xquery-operators} integer-less-than-or-equal, string-equal, date-equal, etc.) are not pushed down if they are used to compare anything with a constant
- An "or" operation ({http://www.w3.org/2004/07/xpath-operators} boolean-or) is not pushed down if any of its operands cannot be pushed down
- fn:not, fn-bea:fence, and fn:exactly-one can be pushed down even if their operand cannot be pushed down
So the question is, why comparators are not pushed down when constants are involved? Is this a bug?
Thanks!

Regular Expressions with Unicode Strings - length restriction?

Hi,
I can't quite figure this one out. I am checking a String for the presence of a URL.. more specifically, a jpg or gif URL.
Anyway, the following reg exp will work fine for me. However, when testing with unicode data (chinese text) the expression will only work up to a certain string length. Here's an example:
boolean isURL = text.matches(".*http\\S*(jpg|gif).*");
My thought is that since Unicode data takes up more space, there a limitation to dealing with Strings. Does anyone know what that number is? Or, is there another reason the reg exp fails??
thanks,
joe
Example::
This works for any length String I throw at it using standard ASCII text.. But a unicode string of a certain length won't recognize the URL (I doubt I can simply paste my example here and have it turn out correctly..)

Limit string-length in Reporting Data Source

Hello,
we want to report some attributes to the BI. For this we use the standard reporting activity in the BPM. After we done a lot of configuration on the CE and the BI we achieved to connect the two systems. All attributes are passed correctly to the BI and now we have a problem with the string-length we pass to the BI. The string-length they get from the CE is 512 but the BI can only handle strings with a 60-length. Is it possible to limit the length of a string in the BPM or the CE?
Manuel

Hello Jun,
I have created reporting data source in my BPM where my parameter defined is of type "STRING'.
This data source is accessed by BW system for reporting purpose where they get an error as below -
"STRING/XTRING types used Not supported by currently selected access method UDCGEN; cannot use this method"
Looks like BW does not support string type, how can we make this datatype compatible?
Please share if you have any idea.
Thanks,
Priya

Improving Performen when using String

Hi all,
Well, I am developing an application and I use Strings a lot... using the Profile I could see the String class are more than 50% of all memory usage on it. I will try to explain how I am using the String and I hope someone can reply me some tips on how to improve this usage.
Basically I have Message Exchanger application, this application receives some text messages and forward them (or reply them) by replacing some special string by another ones.
For example:
The application receive a message like "This is a sample message ${parameter}."
And forward "This is a sample message Hello."
Of course, it is more complicated than that, and has more parameters than just a simple one. The example above is just an swatch
My source code use a lot of
String msg = msg.replace(regex1, text1);
          msg = msg.replace(regex2, text2);The JVM creates a new String for each return of msg replace and I believe this is the main place where I can improve the memory usage. The GC is collecting all resources properly, the problem is that I have hundred of messages like that running what cause thousand of String being created and the GC takes some time to release them.
Well, that is all. Thanks and Regards

When doing a bunch of variable substitutions it's better to use a regexp Matcher with the output being sent to a String buffer. If all the variable tokens have the same structure you can do the whole job in one pass. Something like:
Pattern tokenPatterns = Pattern.compile("\\$\\{(\w+)\\}");
Matcher m = tokenPattern.matcher(inputString);
StringBuffer outb = new StringBuffer(inputString.length());
while(m.find()) {
    String insertText = subsMap.get(m.match(1));
    m.appendReplacement(outb, insertText);
m.appendTail(outb);

Questions on: 1) Last Update; 2) Max String Length; 3) dynamic table keys

Hi:
- I am currently prototyping a plug-in but I have some questions:
- 1) At the 'All Metrics' table, what is the intent of the 'Last Upload' field,
and how is this field updated?
- I have created some metrics but for some metrics the 'Last Upload' field
has a timestamp but for other metrics there is no data.
As far as I know, the metrics are similar but I do not know why the behaviour is different.
- 2) Is there a maximum string length that the Oracle agent can accept?
- I have a script which just returns all the environment variables into one cell.
In emagent.trc, the Oracle agent issues the following warning:
2009-08-27 12:38:47 Thread-76336 WARN upload: Truncating value of "STRING_VALUE" from "AGENT_HOME=
- Is the truncation an issue?
- 3) I have created some dynamic tables from performing an snmp walk, but the key that I use
is the index of the SNMP table. The data is collected correctly, but I am not sure that using
the table index as the key for OEM is a good idea because the metrics are stored according to the SNMP table index.
Should the OEM key be the something like 'object name' instead of the index number from performing an SNMP walk ?
For example, when I click a metric, the metric name is: Sensor Index 1.
But should it not be something like 'Fan #1' ?
Thanks John

Metrics are collected at certain intervals, the Last Upload field indicates the date and time of the last time a metric collection was uploaded. The quicker the interval, the more recent that date should be. If you don't specify a CollectionItem in your default collection file for your metrics, they won't be collected or uploaded.
If your metric column is a STRING type, it is stored in a VARCHAR2(4000)
I'm not sure I understand your last problem... You have a table metric with a set of columns. The column you use as the key is just some tracking index which doesn't really mean anything. As long as your key column(s) make the row unique, the agent will be satisfied. If you want something more meaningful as your key, then it's something you will have to inject into your dataset if it isn't already there.

How to retrieve IndividualStrings from a txt file using String Tokenizer.

hello can any one help me to retrieve the individual strings from a txt file using string tokenizer or some thing like that.
the data in my txt file looks like this way.
Data1;
abc; cder; efu; frg;
abc1; cder2; efu3; frg4;
Data2
sdfabc; sdfcder; hvhefu; fgfrg;
uhfhabc; gffjcder; yugefu; hhfufrg;
Data3
val1; val2; val3; val4; val5; val6;
val1; val2; val3; val4; val5; val6;
val1; val2; val3; val4; val5; val6;
val1; val2; val3; val4; val5; val6;
i need to read the data as an individual strings and i need to pass those values to diffarent labels,the dat in Data3 i have to read those values and add to an table datamodel as 6 columns and rows depends on the data.
i try to retrieve data using buffered reader and inputstream reader,but only the way i am retrieving data as an big string of entire line ,i tried with stringtokenizer but some how i was failed to retrive the data in a way i want,any help would be appreciated.
Regards,

Hmmm... looks like the file format isn't even very consistent... why the semicolon after Data1 but not after Data2 or Data3??
Your algorithm is reading character-by-character, and most of the time it's easier to let a StringTokenizer or StreamTokenizer do the work of lexical analysis and let you focus on the parsing.
I am also going to assume your format is very rigid. E.g. section Data1 will ALWAYS come before section Data2, which will come before section Data3, etc... and you might even make the assumption there can never be a Data4, 5, 6, etc... (this is why its nice to have some exact specification, like a grammar, so you know exactly what is and is not allowed.) I will also assume that the section names will always be the same, namely "DataX" where X is a decimal digit.
I tend to like to use StreamTokenizer for this sort of thing, but the additional power and flexibility it gives comes at the price of a steeper learning curve (and it's a little buggy too). So I will ignore this class and focus on StringTokenizer.
I would suggest something like this general framework:
//make a BufferedReader up here...
do
String line = myBufferedReader.readLine();
if (line!=null && line.trim().length()>0)
line = line.trim();
//do some processing on the line
while (line!=null);So what processing to do inside the if statement?
Well, you can recognize the DataX lines easily enough - just do something like a line.startsWith("Data") and check that the last char is a digit... you can even ignore the digit if you know the sections come in a certain order (simplifying assumptions can simplify the code).
Once you figure out which section you're in, you can parse the succeeding lines appropriately. You might instantiate a StringTokenizer, i.e. StringTokenizer strtok = new StringTokenizer(line, ";, "); and then read out the tokens into some Collection, based on the section #. E.g.
strtok = new StringTokenizer(line, ";, ");
if (sectionNo==0)
//read the tokens into the Labels1 collection
else if (sectionNo==1)
//read the tokens into the Labels2 collection
else //sectionNo must be 2
//create a new line in your table model and populate it with the token values...
}I don't think the delimiters are necessary if you are using end-of-line's as delimiters (which is implicit in the fact that you are reading the text out line-by-line). So the original file format you listed looks fine (except you might want to get rid of that rogue semicolon).
Good luck.

How to use string functions (substr or ltrim or replace) in OLAP universe.

cost element (0COSTELMNT) - 10 CHAR
Controlling area (0CO_AREA) - 4 CHAR
[0COSTELMNT].[LEVEL01].[[20COSTELMNT]].[Value]
cOST ELEMENT is compounded/prefixed with Controlling Area. I just want to see cost element without conrolling area in the BO report.
Currenlty BO unierse is build based on bex query. I am able to suppress the compounding object in bex query by chaning controlling area to 'No display'. But still BO Webi report displaying compounded values in the report. (Bex report works as expected)
eg: Current display in reort.
controlling area/cost element.
AB00/2222
AB00/2223
AB00/2224
Wanted like below:
2222
2223
2224
I think by using string fucntions (substring, ltrim or replace etc.), I can get the required result. But I am having issues with syntax. I have used like below.
substr(0COSTELMNT ; 5 ; 10)
substr(0COSTELMNT; 5 ; Length(0COSTELMNT)-5)
substr(0COSTELMNT; Pos(0COSTELMNT;"/")+1;10)
ltrim(0COSTELMNT,'AB00/')
What is the syntax for substring/replace functions in OLAP universe. Technical name of cost element in OLAP universe is [0COSTELMNT].[LEVEL01].[[20COSTELMNT]].[Value].
I want to fix this at universe level not at report level as i am using cost element in filter/variable section of the report. Please provide me syntax for above example.

Hi,
In fact SAP BW MDX supports limited string manipulation and only with NAME and UNIQUENAME attributes.
Here are some samples that you can use in universes:
MID([0COSTELMNT].currentmember.NAME,1,4)
LEFT([0COSTELMNT].currentmember.NAME,2)
RIGHT([0COSTELMNT].currentmember.NAME,3)
MID([0COSTELMNT].currentmember.UNIQUENAME ,1,4)
LEFT([0COSTELMNT].currentmember.UNIQUENAME ,2)
RIGHT([0COSTELMNT].currentmember.UNIQUENAME ,3)

How to increase the string length of an uploaded file

Hi,
i use a abap webser where i've uploaded some JAR files into the mime repository.
Unfortunately the string length is limited by 40 characters and so longer file names are cut.
How can I increase the default string length? Does somebody know a workaround?
Thanks.
Edited by: Martin Gardyan on Oct 22, 2008 9:48 AM

what i guess copying those jars should not create this problem.U just try in db using
"ALTER TABLE <table_name> MODIFY <column_name> VARCHAR2(<new, larger length>)"
may be it works.

Anu

How to search for upper/lower case using string using JAVA!!!?

-I am trying to write a program that will examine each letter in the string and count how many time the upper-case letter 'E' appears, and how many times the lower-case letter 'e' appears.
-I also have to use a JOptionPane.showMessageDialog() to tell the user how many upper and lower case e's were in the string.
-This will be repeated until the user types the word "Stop".
please help if you can
what i have so far:
[code]
public class Project0 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String[] uppercase = {'E'};
String[] lowercase = {'e'};
String isOrIsNot, inputWord;
while (true) {
   // This line asks the user for input by popping out a single window
   // with text input
   inputWord = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Please enter a sentence");
   if ( inputWord.equals("stop") )
    System.exit(0);
   // if the inputWord is contained within uppercase or
   // lowercase return true
   if (wordIsThere(inputWord, lowercase))
    isOrIsNot = "Number of lower case e's: ";
   if (wordIsThere(inputword, uppercase))
     isOrIsNot = "number of upper case e's: ";
   // Output to a JOptionPane window whether the word is on the list or not
   JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "The word " + inputWord + " " + isOrIsNot + " on the list.");
} //main
public static boolean wordIsThere(String findMe, String[] theList) {
for (int i=0; i<theList.length; ++i) {
   if (findMe.equals(theList[i])) return true;
return false;
} // wordIsThere
} // class Lab4Program1
[/code]

So what is your question? Do you get any errors? If so, post them. What doesn't work?

String length limitation on setString() in prepared statement

Hi,
Is any body aware of the length of string that can be passed to setString() method of prepared statement. I am getting an error "Data size bigger than max size for this type" if the string length is more than 2000 chars. I am using jdk 1.2.2 for running the application.
Thanks in advance.
Nihar.

Please use the following method. It worked for me.
PreparedStatement pstmt = ......;
String str = .....;
pstmt.setObject(index,str,java.sql.Types.LONGVARCHAR);

Purpose of using string field

how to use string field and its purpose...

STRING: Character string with variable length This data type can be used only in types (data elements, structures, table types) and domains. In the dictionary a length can be specified for this type (at least 256 characters). It can be used in database tables only with restrictions. For a description of them, refer to the documentation of the ABAP statement 'STRING'. In ABAP, this type is implemented as a reference to a storage area of variable size. The system proposes 132 characters as default for the output length. You cannot attach search helps to components of this type.
SSTRING: Short character string with variable length. In the Dictionary the number of characters can be specified for this type (from 1 to 1333). This data type can be used only in types (data elements, structures, table types) and domains. It can be used in database tables. To do so, refer to the documentation of the ABAP statement 'STRING'. In ABAP, this type is implemented as a reference to a storage area of variable size. String fields of this type can be used in indexes and in the WHERE condition of a SELECT statement. You cannot use them in table keys
