Validation Event Handlers

Hi
I have a requirement of creating a user identity in OIM 11gR2 only when few set of attributes say FirstName, MiddleName and Lastname. If this set of attributes are not exist in OIM then only we have to create the user otherwise not.
So for this purpose we are using Validation Event Handlers, So whenever i am creating a user from OIM console the validation is working but with GTC reconciliation its not working.
I have implemented both the validate(long eventID, long processID, BulkOrchestration orchestration) and validate(long eventID, long processID, Orchestration orchestration) methods under that event handler.
So is it a expected behaviour that validation event handler will not work with Recon?
Can somebody also suggest, what else we can use to satisy this requirement.
Thanks in Advance

In this case the values can be null also..So i dont think we can use Required attribute option.
Let me know if you have some diffrent thought on this?

Help needed in implementing validation event handler in OIM 11g

Hello experts,
I am trying to set username policy by implementing a validation event handler in OIM 11.1.1.5.
Following are the steps followed
1. Import metadata
Created a file called Eventhandler.xml as below and imported using weblogicImportmetadata.sh
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<eventhandlers xmlns="http://www.oracle.com/schema/oim/platform/kernel" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.oracle.com/schema/oim/platform/kernel orchestration-handlers.xsd">
<validation-handler class="test.iam.eventhandlers.CustomValidationEventHandler" entity-type="User" operation="CREATE" name="CustomValidationEventHandler" order="1000" sync="TRUE"/>
</eventhandlers>
2. Register plugin
plugin.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<oimplugins xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<plugins pluginpoint="oracle.iam.platform.kernel.spi.ValidationHandler">
<plugin pluginclass="test.iam.eventhandlers.CustomValidationEventHandler" version="1.0" name="CustomValidationEventHandler" />
</plugins>
</oimplugins>
Just givng sys out in the below code to check whther it is getting triggerred during user create.
package test.iam.eventhandlers;
import java.util.HashMap;
import oracle.iam.platform.Platform;
import oracle.iam.platform.context.ContextAware;
import oracle.iam.platform.kernel.ValidationException;

import oracle.iam.platform.kernel.vo.BulkEventResult;
import oracle.iam.platform.kernel.vo.BulkOrchestration;
import oracle.iam.platform.kernel.vo.Orchestration;
public class CustomValidationEventHandler implements ValidationHandler {
     @Override
     public void initialize(HashMap<String, String> arg0) {
     // TODO initialization
          System.out.println("init validate event handler");
     @Override
     public void validate(long processId, long eventId, Orchestration orchestration)
     throws ValidationException, ValidationFailedException {
          System.out.println("Beginning of validation");
          System.out.println("End of validation");
     @Override
     public void validate(long processId, long eventId, BulkOrchestration arg2)
     throws ValidationException, ValidationFailedException {
     // TODO - N/A
          System.out.println("Bulk Orchestration not yet implemented");
Now when i create a user it is not allowing and i am getting system error in the front end and in the logs i could see something below
<May 28, 2012 3:03:29 PM CEST> <Error> <oracle.iam.identity.usermgmt.impl> <IAM-3050029> <The user cannot be created due to validation errors.

I have implemented preprocess and postprocess event handler before with similar kind of plugin registration, metadata import and everything worked fine. Not sure what is the problem here with validation event handler.
Thanks
DK

Instead of registering the plug-in can u try placing it in the plugins folder under Oracle_IDM1/server folder.
at times restart is required. esp when the server is running in production mode.

Validation Event Handler Not working with Flat File GTC Trusted Recon

We are created Event Handler for checking special characters in Telephone field.Its working fine when the user is created through Admin Console.but the event handler is not triggering while doing GTC Flat File Trusted recon.
Version: OIM 11.1.1.5.0
Can someone please help me out with this.
Thanks

Validation Event handlers will not work with your trusted recon. You can use the GTC Validation provider, it is nothing but the plugins which you can insert with in your source field in GTC. I think you can easily get the steps for how to create a custom GTC Providers.

Adobe Pro fires validation event when new page is created

Adobe Pro fires validation event when a new page is created on many fields.
When testing in Livecycle, I can add a new page fine, but with Adobe Pro a large list of errors appears and the fields are highlighted in red.
The errors don't happen in other versions of Adobe.
These are valid errors if the user tried to submit a field that is required and has not been entered yet, but the error happens when the page is initially created (added).

I was able to get my role processor to work.

Event Handlers Invoked Everytime for update on User Profile.(OIM 11g)

Hi,
We had Custom event handlers for generating some fields on user form.
Everytime there is update on user profile on any field, All the event handlers fired, (As seen from logs).
I want to fire particular event handlers on particular update. Like if first name is updated then only display name event handler should fire. (not all)
How can i achieve this???

Here is my code..it is working fine for creation of the user. but when i am updating the user i am getting all null values except the updated one.
Example if there are 5 fields in that i am updating 2 .apart from those 2 fields the other 3 are coming as null which is making validation to fail.

Event handlers for backbutton

Hi,
I want perform some validations when I press back button.how to find event handlers for back button,because F2
is not giving full info for back button.
Regards,
Brahmaji

Hi,
the back button is always part of toolbar buttons.
So you can open the view controller class and open the GET_TOOLBAR_BUTTONS method from that class.
In this method you see how the BACK button is defined. One of the attribute of button structure is ON_CLICK.
The value of this attribute should be the event name that is triggered when the button is clicked.
Now open the DO_HANDLE_EVENT method from the view controller class, you will have methods with prefix EH_ON
after the prefix you see the event name. If you find one that mached to the event name of the BACK button, then this is the event handler that is triggered by the BACK button.
Regards,
Steve

Do I need to worry about these event handlers in a grid from a memory leak perspective?

I'm pretty new to Flex and coudn't figure out how to add event handlers to inline item renderer components from the containing file script so I attached the listnerers simply as part of the components themselves (eg <mx:Checkbox ... chnage="outerDocument.doSomething(event)"../>):
<mx:DataGrid id="targetsGrid" width="100%" height="100%" doubleClickEnabled="true" styleName="itemCell"
      headerStyleName="headerRow" dataProvider="{targets}"
      rowHeight="19" fontSize="11" paddingBottom="0" paddingTop="1">
     <mx:columns>
     <mx:DataGridColumn width="78" dataField="@isSelected" headerText="">
     <mx:itemRenderer>
          <mx:Component>
               <mx:HBox width="100%" height="100%" horizontalAlign="center">
                    <mx:CheckBox id="targetCheckBox" selected="{data.@isSelected == 'true'}"
                         change="outerDocument.checkChangeHandler(event);"/>
                    <mx:Image horizontalAlign="center" toolTip="Delete" source="@Embed('/assets/icons/delete.png')" useHandCursor="true" buttonMode="true"
                         click="outerDocument.deleteHandler(event);"/>
                    <mx:Image id="editButton" horizontalAlign="center" toolTip="Edit" source="@Embed('/assets/icons/edit-icon.png')" useHandCursor="true" buttonMode="true"
                         click="outerDocument.editHandler(event);"/>
               </mx:HBox>
          </mx:Component>
     </mx:itemRenderer>
     </mx:DataGridColumn>
          <mx:DataGridColumn id="Name" dataField="@collectionDesc" headerText="Name" itemRenderer="com.foobar.integrated.media.ui.component.CellStyleForTargetName"/>
          <mx:DataGridColumn id="Created" width="140" dataField="@createDateTime" headerText="Created" labelFunction="UiHelper.gridDateFormat" />
     </mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
This grid is part of a view that will get destroyed and recreated potentially many times during a user's session within the application (there's a large dynamic nature to the app and views are created at run-time.) By destroyed I mean that the view that holds the above datagrid will no longer be referenced under certain circumstances and an entire new view object is created (meaning the old datagrid is no longer refernced and a new one is created.)
I heard you should clean up event handlers when they are no longer used, and I know at what point the view is destroyed, but I don't know how to clean up the event handlers added to the item renderer components? Is it something that the Flex garbage collector will handle efficiently?
Also, on a somewhat related note, how could I push the item renderer to an external component since in my event handlers for the item renderer buttons I need a reference to the datagrid.selectedIndex which, as an external item renderer I wouldn't have access to this containing grid?

No. You don't need explicit cleanup in this case: if your outerDocument is going away, you have nothing to worry about. The event handler leak can happen in sort of the reverse situation: suppose you have a long-lived MyView that contains a custom DataGrid like the one below. Now suppose that MyView frequently destroys and re-creates the grid. And suppose that on its creationComplete event, the grid registers a listener for outerDocument's (MyView's) enterFrame Event. Unless you explicitly remove this listener, MyView will still have a reference to it even after the grid that registered the listener is destroyed (and garbage collected).
This is a pretty contrived example, but it sort of illustrates the potential for leaks: a certain component is elligible for garbage collection, but some longer-lived component holds a reference to it (or part of it, such as a listener function). If the longer-lived component is elligible for GC as well, you don't really need to worry about proper cleanup. That's what you're paying the GC processor cycles for.

Unable to Create Event handlers , Plugs

Hello everyone,
We've just moved to a new development environment and had our existing WebUI enhancements transported from an old one (which was CRM 7.0 EHP1). The new system was also already in EHP1.
The problem is we couldn't create any new Event Handlers and Inbound and Outbound plugs in an enhanced component via BSP_WD_CMPWB. Even though the component has already been enhanced, the system keeps on asking for an Access Key to edit SAP Standard objects and behaving as though the component hasn't been enhanced at all.
Has anyone encountered this before? Any SAP OSS Note to fix the problem?

Hello,
Thanks for your replies, the issue has been solved. When the enhancements were transported into the new system the database entries used by the enhancement wizards weren't included into the transport. Basically we had to update the ff tables:
BSP_WD_GEN -> Table with generated classes
BSP_WD_EXT_HIST -> Mapping Table source controller class to Z controller class, and source context class to Z context class

How to expose and code the event handlers of a base class?

I have created a class that inherits NumericUpDown. When I instantiate an object from that class, I can make it visible and have it appear on my form just like any other NUD. How can I get that instantiated object to expose the event handlers of its base
class, the NUD in this case, so that, for example, I can tell the client what action to take when the value of the instantiated object changes?
Thanks for your help.

I am not sure exactly what you mean. Are you adding your NUD controls to the Form at design time from the toolbox or adding them in code at run time? If you are adding them to the form from the toolbox then you access the events the same way
you would a standart NUD control. If it is at runtime and you have a fixed amount of them you are going to add then you can declare them Class Scoped using the
WithEvents keyword which will let you access all their events.
Public Class Form1
Private WithEvents Nud1 As New NUD
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Me.Controls.Add(Nud1)
End Sub
Private Sub Nud1_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Nud1.ValueChanged
Me.Text = Nud1.Value.ToString
End Sub
End Class
Public Class NUD
Inherits NumericUpDown
'Your custom code to make it work how you want...
End Class
If this is not what you are doing then you may need to explain a bit more and show the code you are using so we understand better.
If you say it can`t be done then i`ll try it

Validation Event Handler Not working with GTC Recon???

We have implemented a Validation Event Handler on user entity.
In the code we have implemented both the execute methods i.e. Orchestration andf Bulk Orchestration. We have created a UDF for Manager field and our validation handler checks whether the user in Manager UDF field is an Active user in OIM or not. In case the user is not an Active user, code will throw a Validation Failed Exception.
At the time of changing the Manager UDF value from the Console directly Validation Event Handler is getting triggered but with GTC Recon Validation Handler is not Working.
Previously i faced the same issue with the post process event handler but the problem get resoved when i implemented execute method with Bulk Orchestration. As per my understanding Bulk Orchestration exceute method gets called with GTC Recon and execute method with Orchestration gets called when changing the attribute value directly from the console.
In case of Validation Event Handler i have implemented both but still validation Event handler is not working with GTC.
Thanks in Advance....

Any Help????

[JS] Basic question about event listeners and event handlers

I am very new to the whole topic of event listeners and event handlers. I'd run the test for the following problem myself, but I don't know where to start, and I just want to know if it's impossible -- that is, if I'm misunderstanding what event listeners and event handlers do.
Say I have an InDesign document with a text frame that is linked to an InCopy story. Can I use an "afterImport" event listener on the text frame to perform some action any time the link to the InCopy story gets updated? And will the event handler have access to both the story that is imported, and the pathname of the InCopy file?
Thanks.

Thank you, Kasyan.
Both of those are good solutions.
We are currently using InDesign CS4 and InCopy CS5. I'm hoping to get them to purchase the whole CS5 suite soon, since I'd like to start writing scripts for InDesign CS5 as soon as possible, as long as I'm going to have to be doing it in the not too distant future anyway. The greater variety of event handlers sounds like it might be something that is crucial to the project I'm working on, so that adds to the argument for getting CS5.
Thanks again. You have no idea how helpful this is. I made some promises to my boss yesterday that I later realized were based on assumptions of mine about the InDesign/InCopy system that didn't make any sense, and I was going to have to retract my promises. But after reading your response I think I can still deliver, in a slightly different way that I had been thinking before.

Help with Event Handlers with Scope

I have a question of how I must implement the event handlers with scope, I have problems in the execution of processes BPEL (they are generating exceptions in the dehydration)
I have two models for event handlers and I need to know which is the best way to implement event handlers.
Another question is, in what it influences the "variableAccessSerializable" attribute.
Thanks!
1) Event Handlers with PartnerLink invocation OUTSIDE Scope
<invoke name="Invoke_1" partnerLink="PartnerLink1"/>
<scope name="Scope_1" variableAccessSerializable="yes">
<eventHandlers>
<onMessage partnerLink="PartnerLink1"/>
<onAlarm/>
</eventHandlers>
<sequence name="Sequence_1">
</sequence>
</scope>
2) Event Handler with PartnerLink invocation INSIDE scope
<scope name="Scope_1" variableAccessSerializable="yes">
<eventHandlers>
<onMessage partnerLink="PartnerLink1"/>
<onAlarm/>
</eventHandlers>
<sequence name="Sequence_1">
<invoke name="Invoke_1" partnerLink="PartnerLink1"/>
</sequence>
</scope>

Thanks -- indeed a crucial call might be missing. I was doing
this until 3 yesterday morning.
Would this be the correct sample code to use? :
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/mx2004/main_7_2/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm ?context=Flash_MX_2004&file=00000846.html
It seems to work (although someone cautions in the page
comments that it doesn't).
Part of my trouble in working with AS 2.0 is that I feel I
shouldn't have to do such complicated things (Delegate classes,
etc) in order to get simple things done (loading XML files). This
is not a complaint per se -- rather I feel that I must be missing
something, that it is my inexperience that is causing me to bend
through so many hoops: programming "should" be elegant and simple.
So, any links helpful. Thanks.

Java APM Agent initialization failed: SEAgent.config.xml does not have a valid event sender configured

Today I tried to configure JAVA APM on a CentOS 6.4 server with tomcat6 installed through the normal RPM package. Adding this server to SCOM was no problem and it shows itself as a 'Deep Monitored Configuration'. The last part of enabling
JAVA APM fails. I have followed the following process:
1. Imported the JAVA APM MP's
2. Extracted the JAVA APM Files
3. Copied those files to my CentOS server
4. Added the JAVA_OPTS to my tomcat configuration file
5. Restarted Tomcat
When I look for the log file which needs to be created through the installation of the APM agent it cannot be find. When I look into my Catalina.out file I see the following errors:

Does anyone have seen this error before? Can someone help me with this one?
Thnx,

I'm running tomcat on a CentOS release 6.4 (Final) server. I installed Tomcat 6 through an RPM from the CentOS sources. I have installed Apache Tomcat/6.0.24 wit JVM version 1.7.0_09-icedtea-mockbuild_2013_01_16_18_52-b00, the JVM Vendor is Oracle Corporation.
My tomcat configuration needs to be done in '/etc/tomcat6/tomcat6.conf'
I installed the APM Agent in the path '/opt/apm/' with the rights 40755 (root/root). The files have the following rights:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root tomcat 32046 Mar 3 15:38 apm_facade.jar
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root tomcat 244819 Mar 3 15:38 apm_monitor.jar
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root tomcat 38110 Mar 3 15:38 apm_producers.jar
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root tomcat 207006 Mar 3 15:38 asm-all-3.3.1.jar
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root tomcat   4157 Mar 3 15:38 ASM_Third_Party_Notices.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root tomcat 241368 Mar 3 15:38 DispatcherStub.dll

-rw-rw-r-- 1 root tomcat    830 Mar 5 15:19 Starter.properties
The above rights are equal to the /etc/tomcat6 directory with the tomcat configuration files.
In the tomcat6.conf I have added the following entries:
#Microsoft SCOM APM
JAVA_OPTS="${JAVA_OPTS} -Djava.library.path=/opt/apm"
JAVA_OPTS="${JAVA_OPTS} -javaagent:/opt/apm/apm_facade.jar -Xbootclasspath/p:/opt/apm/apm_producers.jar -Xbootclasspath/p:/opt/apm/apm_facade.jar"
When I look into the running tomcat process I see the following:
tomcat   17401     1 0 Mar05 ?        00:00:39 /usr/lib/jvm/jre/bin/java -Djava.library.path=/opt/apm -javaagent:/opt/apm/apm_facade.jar -Xbootclasspath/p:/opt/apm/apm_producers.jar -Xbootclasspath/p:/opt/apm/apm_facade.jar

The 'apm-java-agent.log' is not created on the system. The only logging is done in the catalina.out. When restarting tomcat I see the following entries in te log file:

Hope this gives your some more background around my problem, I double checked the permissions..

Problems with .chart-plot-background and event handlers

Hello. I'm trying to add event handlers to my chart so that the user can be allowed click within the chart itself to perform certain actions like dragging, zooming, etc. To avoid having to deal with handling mouse clicks that lie outside the chart itself (for example on the axes), I've found that:
.chart-plot-background
is the Region that gives me the entire chart and nothing else. However, when I attach mouse listeners to this Region, the event is only registered on half of the cells in the chart. If you've seen the default JavaFX Chart background layout, you know that it contains alternating rows of cells with slightly different coloring. I've found that only the rows with the lightest gray coloring actually register a mouse click on them, which makes me believe the dark grey cells are not part of the .chart-plot-background, but something else on top.
To me, this feels like an oversight in how the regions of the chart are defined. Why can I not get a listener to work on the whole chart and nothing else? Currently the only workaround seems to be to take the Region:
.chart-content
instead, and compute the difference between this region and the .chart-plot-background in order to manually suppress mouse clicks that lie outside .chart-plot-background.
Anyone have suggestions? Is this worth issuing on the JavaFX Jira?

Hello,
I'm not an expert on controls, but here is my guess based on your description: when you register an event handler on a "background" node, it is called only when the mouse hovers over the background node - I suppose the light gray is the background with the light gray cells being transparent and dark grey cells being filled. So the behavior seems correct - you can't expect the events to be delivered to background when it is covered by other nodes. I think you really should register the handler on the entire chart and filter out the events you don't want to handle. This however should not require much of computing the difference between the regions, it should be possible to do just something like
if (!background.contains(event.getX(), event.getY())) {
return;
Provided that the background doesn't reach under the axes as well. Note that if there are any different transforms between the background and the node with the handler registered on it, you may need to recompute the coordinates by
background.sceneToLocal(event.getSceneX(), event.getSceneY());
And use the contains method on that.

Multiple event handlers registered for the same event and error when adding users to sec groups

Project Server 2013 CU April (May) 2014
I've created and installed two event handlers (separate dll:s) and both are triggering on Project Published - initially, both are working fine.
After an IISReset, trying to create a new security group (or add a user to an existing group) will result in an error on the page and a corresponding error in the ULS log - the latter indicating an error in the method security.creategroups, and specifically
a problem 'An item with the same key has already been added.'
An SQL trace reveals a break in execution after executing the proc 'pub.MSP_ADMIN_ReadEventReceivers' which returns all registered event handlers.
In my case, the result of that proc execution shows that there are two event handlers registered with an EVENT_ID of 53 (Project Published) and with ORDER_FIRED set to 1 and 2 respectively.
I tried removing one of the event receivers using the Central Admin PWA interface and then everything worked just fine - I added the event receiver back again, and everything STILL worked! IISReset and I got the error back again. :-(
Since there's obviously some problem with reading multiple entries from that table regardless of the ORDER_FIRED differentiation, I tried temporarily modifying one of the '53' entries in the table directly and then the sec group was created just fine!
I would like to know if anyone else has seen this? I've seen this on three separate installations now after deploying a second event listener onto those systems.

Hi Lars,
yes I have seen the same issue. It is not related to April CU. I had the error before with SP1.
It is not only an issue with the security groups. At least in our case nothing worked at all. No custom field editing, all Queue Jobs failing.
For your case I suggest you consolidate your code in one eventhandler.
Theory says that you can have more than 1 (up to 999) eventhandlers for one Event (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms481079(v=office.12).aspx) but that seems not to
work. Not sure, if it worked in earlier versions.
Kind regards
