I need to insert some data from an XML document into an SQL table using a stored procedure. This should be done using the WCF-SQL adapter on a send port in Biztalk. I've set up the connection properties on the adapter, but I am missing the message part.
I'm currently using the below code with some hardcoded values inside a body template:
<SaveDocument xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/Sql/2008/05/Procedures/dbo">
<conversationID>123456</conversationID>
<dataType>OIO</dataType>
<fromID></fromID>
<toID></toID>
<msgInfoExtension><![CDATA[<infoExt><fileInfo fileName="ublinvoice.xml" encoding="utf-8" /></infoExt>]]></msgInfoExtension>
<msgBody>
<bts-msg-body xmlns="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/bts2007" encoding="string"/>
</msgBody>
<msgBodyBin></msgBodyBin>
</SaveDocument>
Instead of the hardcoded values, I need to grab some of the promoted properties in an XML document, but I'm unsure how to correctly go about doing this.
In the MS documentation I found this page, which describes the structure of the request: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/biztalk/adapters-and-accelerators/adapter-sql/message-schemas-for-procedures-and-functions
Distinguish the properties that you want to set in the SaveDocument schema
Create a map that populates the fields, the ones you want to set from the Promoted properties, just fill them with some constants from the map.
In an Orchestration have a Construct Message that contains both the map shape pointing to the above map and a message assignment shape.
In the message assignment shape have some statements like saveSG.conversationID = sourceMSG(PropmotedProperty).
P.S. I think you have manually tried to create the SaveDocument schema. This is probably not correct. The correct way is to create the stored procedure and then use the Generate Instance dialogue in Visual Studio, and to configure that to auto generate the schema for you, and as a bonus, it even generates a binding file containing the settings you need for your send port.
You might be able to use the often overlook Property Demotion feature.
It's basically the reverse of Promotion and is done by the XmlAssembler component.

I need the value in input variable to be added to soap header, using Dataweave - I was using datamapper earlier, but since it's no more supported, want to do through Dataweave.
I'm not able to map between the data variable and outbound property in Anypoint studio. I even tried with multiple variables but no use.
Does anyone has an example?
I was able to set an outbound property from a flow variable using the 'Output' drop down in DW, choose 'Outbound Property'. This feature is described here, see section 'Handling Multiple Outputs'.
I am currently developing an application in which i experience the exception "A cycle was detected in the set of changes" when calling DataContext.SubmitChanges(). I know why this exception is thrown but i have not been able to find a fix for my situation. Let me explain the situation. I have a database with a table as shown below which i access with LINQ to SQL so it gets mapped to classes in vb.net.
Device
-------
ID
DefaultGatewayID
The DefaultGatewayID is a Device an can even be the same object or another Device. The user uses a GUI with a DataGrid to alter and add new records. The updating records is no problem. The ID already exists and the DefaultGatewayObject is attached to the record (the ID is stored in database).
However when i try to add a new record and set the DefaultGatewayObject in the same transaction i get the 'Cycle detected in set of changes'-exception. I suspect this is caused by LINQ to SQL because it does not know which record to add first, although it is the same item in this case.
I do not have the option to break the insertion into two parts, one for the Device and then adding the DefaultGateway because my submit button is bound to a XAML Command which executes the SubmitChanges.
Ideally i would have some option to specify which object is to be created first, or something like that. I think it's an option to remove the connection to itself and just set the ID in this field, but i'd rather find a fix within LINQ to SQL.
I hope SO has an answer to this. I could only find this related post "Cycle detected while adding Circularly linked list"
You can break the insertion into two parts ans still have one transaction if you wrap your code in a TransactionScope.
Using trans As New TransactionScope()
'Code that generates a new ID in the database
dc.SubmitChanges()
'Code that uses the new ID value.
dc.SubmitChanges()
trans.Complete()
End Using
This is the only way to avoid the exception. If this is impossible because of architectural decisions ("my submit button is bound to a XAML Command") you need to change the architecture. I think a UI command should never be so close to the data access layer anyway. You better call a service method from XAML.
I have a SoapUI project which contains around 60 plus services. Each service requires some input which will be changed for every execution. So I have created certain Global Properties and assign some values to that properties.
I have to use these properties values in my SoapUI request ( i.e. JSON Format request ).
If it is groovy script means, I will use like this.
String HTiC_Username = com.eviware.soapui.model.propertyexpansion.PropertyExpansionUtils.globalProperties['HTiC_Username'].value;
But, how to get the value of the Global Property in the request?
Hope you understand my question. Please provide proper guidance.
Thanks
To dynamically "expand" (i.e. substitute) the value of a property into a test step, the following syntax is used: ${#scope#propertyName}
...where 'scope' refers to the level at which the property has been defined (e.g. Global, Project, TestSuite, TestCase).
So to expand a property named username defined as a Global property, for example, the following code can be used directly within a Request Test Step (e.g within a JSON body, or header value, etc):
${#Global#username}
To access the same property value within a Groovy Test Step, you can use the following syntax:
context.expand('${#scope#propertyName}')
...as in the following example:
context.expand('${#Global#username}')
What we did was the following:
created a test data file to store all the specific input data for the different services (testdata.properties)
Example content of testdata.properties:
Billing_customerID=1234567
OtherService_paymentid=12121212
....
create a SoupUi global parameter (File/Preferences/Global properties): testdata_filepath=C:\...
For specific services we added a Properties test step. You can specify the "Load from" field to our new global parameter: ${#Global#testdata_filepath} Now you can use the Load button to load parameters.
Finally you can reference the parameter in your xml in the following format: ${Properties#Billing_customerID}
Example content of a service with parameter:
...
<BillingCustomerIdentification>
<BillingCustomerID>${#Properties#Billing_customerID}</BillingCustomerID>
</BillingCustomerIdentification>
...
To set up your projects in this manner also helps to automate service tests eg. using Hudson (see my previous SO answer).
If it is too heavy and automation is not a target, you can simply use ${#Global#someinputvariable} format in your xml ;-)
I have some code in my ApplicationEvent.vb to handle command line params and then run some procedures based on whatever param was input at cmd.
The problem is that I need to execute a procedure that has a dataset table adapter in it.
Obviously as I want it to run in batch mode I can't have a table adapter as they are GUI based (or at least I think they are) so I am getting this error:
'V_SyncStatusTableAdapter' is not a member of 'AppName.My.MyApplication'
For this code:
If Me.V_SyncStatusTableAdapter.GetData.Rows.Count > 0 Then
drSyncResult = Me.V_SyncStatusTableAdapter.GetData.Rows(0)
Now this is obviously because the table adapter hasn't and AFAIK can't be put into the ApplicationEvents.vb file.
I know that the dataset is called: dsetWorkingTables and the table is called v_SyncStatus. I have tried:
dsetWorkingTablesTableAdapters.v_SyncStatusTableAdapter.GetData but that gives:
reference to non shared member requires object reference
So my question is:
How do I get data from a dataset in the ApplicationEvents.vb file?
You need to referene your table adapter against the form class it exists in. Even with forms, you can still access methods on the forms as you will, what you want to avoid is form.Show() which will case the form to appear on screen.
Is your table adapter in a separate project from your Application Events? If so, you need to reference that project.
Table Adapters are not just for GUI, they can be used in batch or console apps as well.
How do I send two users coming from different company domains to different SQL databases to retrieve/store data? I use Application variables to store the connection strings and the Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER") variable is an effective way to get the domain name. Is the GLOBAL.AsA file to be modified? The table names are exactly the same in both databases, so I think changing the connection strings based on the user domain should do the trick.
User A with domain ABC --> Application("ConnecttoDB") send to database A
User B with domain XYZ --> Application("ConnecttoDB") send to database B
I have roughly 900+ classic ASP pages so I would really hate to add a bunch of IF-THEN's to choose the correct database in each page. All ideas are greatly appreciated!
UPDATE: To make things simple I'm envisioning one single Application variable (i.e.: ConnecttoDB) However, wouldn't its value be constantly changing every time a different user gets access and altering page results?
You can't use an Application variable since that's shared across all users. This would be a race condition. Instead you'll need to use the Session object to store the connection and then use that whenever you need to connect to the DB.
myDB=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
StrConn = Session("ConnecttoDB")
myDB.Open StrConn
Here's one way of doing it:
I'm guessing that your classes for your web page codebehind files inheit the Page class. Create a new class file in your ASP.net project that inherits Page. Call it JorgePage. Then, make your codebehind file classes inherit JorgePage.
In JorgePage, write two functions:
private string getUsersDomain()
{
// returns the user's domain
}
protected string getUsersConnectionString()
{
switch (getUsersDomain().ToUpper())
{
case "ABC":
return Application("ConnecttoDB_ABC");
break;
case "xYZ":
return Application("ConnecttoDB_XYZ");
break;
}
}
Now, the function getUsersConnectionString() is available in the context of all your pages and returns the correct connection string. Furthermore, you have the code in only one place, so if you need to change the logic later, you can do so easily.
Given that you're using classic ASP, you can define a function to return the appropriate connection string in another .asp file and use the #include directive to add it to all your pages.
