Message Mapping UDF

[former_member457420]

Hi Guys,

For the UDF functions for messagemapping,Its a pain to code it using the dataflow editor provided in the repository.

We are having the XI version 3.0(SP 20).

So I decided to use eclipse for coding and debugging the functions and then copy it to the UDF editor for usage.

Have downloaded the Eclipse-SDK 3.0.02 Version and is going to use the the JDK version(1.4.12)

Is that Okay?(I mean is it compatible with the XI version).

I have the aii_map_api.jar already with me.

What is the above ".jar" for and what do they contain?

Have read somewhere that I need the aii_mt_rt.jar and aii_utilxi_misc.jar as well.

What are they for and what do they contain?

If I need the above said jars,Is there any java plug-in available.

Thanks

P

Hi P,

For writing UDF's you dont need all these jar file!!!! they are required either for java mapping or module creation..

BTW you can use any java ide to write this simple piece of java codes (even notepad will do )

Hello S.R.Suraj

I want to write in text file from UDF XI 3.0 with java code, the question is: what i need to start?

I need to debug it and I also want to have the Container,context,ResultList,ResultListimpl objects available in my eclipse editor.

So I would say,I definelty need these jars.But which one of those are used for what purposes.That I would like to know.

Hi pazzuzu,

These Jar files provides functions for debugging in developer tools, there are few function in mapping UDF like result.addValue() (for writing the output in the queue). you can just simply use system.out functionality and latter replace them with result.addValue().
