User Defined Mapping Problem

[Former Member]

Dear SDNs,

I write a user defined mapping program under a namespace, and I want to use it in other namespaces by drag and drop instead of importing, is that possible?

Hi,

Like mentioned by Prakash, one option is to create a Class out of your UDF , import it under the Imported Archives as a JAR and this class would be accesible across all namespaces in the SWCV's. Create an object of this class and then invoke its methods.

Another option would be to go for Value Mapping.

Hi,

Are u talking about User Define Function or a mapping program like Java, XSLT? In general all mapping program as user defined.

In case of User Defined Function you have to copy it once again as far I know.

In case of a Mapping program if you are trying to access from the same software component but withn different name space there is no need of re importing. You can select if from the F4 the mapping program will be available.

Thanks,

Prakash, I'm a little confused, I think mapping program like java and XSLT can only imported in user defined function in Mapping, isn't it?

What do you mean by the "F4"? Can you explain it to me ?

Thank you.

Hi,

No, you will be importing it under Imported Archive. You will find User Defined Function inside the Graphical Mapping.

Refer this link for UDF

F4 is Value request. In the Interface mapping when you are assigning the mapping program you will click on the "?" button which is nothing but F4. You can also press F4 which is equal to pressing "?"
