User defined function in PI 7.1 compilation error "Recompile with -Xlint"

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have a user defined function in PI 7.1 .,which is throwing the following error.

Do i need to add any import statements like "import java.lang.String" in the beginning.

It is unable to recognize the String methods used in the user defined function.

E:\usr\sap\PID\DVEBMGS30\j2ee\cluster\server0\.\temp\classpath_resolver\Map02580a102a0911deb2b20019990eddfd\source\com\sap\xi\tf\_MM_C_to_Goods_.java:276:

cannot find symbol

symbol : method trim()

location: class java.lang.Object

if(container.getParameter("AdjustmentQuantity").trim().startsWith("-")){ ^

uses or overrides a deprecated API.

Any Help greatly appreciated..

Hi!

String methods normally are known in the context of UDFs (e.g. ... myString.toCharArray() works without any problems).

Did you already try to use the trim() method in a more simple statement? Just to double check that it is really the trim() method the compiler has problems with ..?

I changed the method with more number of arguments and it solved my purpose.

Thanks everyone for your inputs

container.getParameter() returns Object, not String.

try following:

String aq = (String) container.getParameter("AdjustmentQuantity");

if(aq.trim().startsWith("-"))

Hi,

Use "import java.lang.*;" while creating the function. It is mendatory.
