FixValues and Global Variable

[Former Member]

hi,

Is there a functionality which does exactly like FixValues but stores the value thorugh out the mapping?

I have a requirement where i have to map 2 different values to other values but i have to repeat this for all the fields using FixValue instead if there would be a Global Variable i could use that instead.

Any ideas.

Thanks,

Hi Tirumal,

For your requirement you can define a HashMap in Java Sections Tab of Graphical mapping and refer the values from UDF.

Steps

1. Goto MessageMapping (Design TAB)-> Edit JAVA Sections (Found on top-right side)

2. Declare a HashMap in Global variables section.

Eg.

HashMap materialNumMap = null;

3. Initialize the same variable and fill some values.

Eg.

materialNumMap = new HashMap();
            materialNumMap.put("MAT-01","10001");
            materialNumMap.put("MAT-02","10002");  
            materialNumMap.put("MAT-03","10003");
            materialNumMap.put("MAT-04","10004");

 

4. Write UDF to retrieve value from Global container

public void chkExists(String materialNUM,ResultList result,Container container){

  String valueFrmMap = (String)materialNumMap.get(materialNUM);
  
  return valueFrmMap;

}

Hope this solves your problem.

Hi,

You can use Value Mapping. That might be a better solution. Check out for value mapping in the following link.
