Create unx using program code

Former Member

Hi,

We are using BOBJ 3.1 and using Designer SDK reference in .net application to create universe (.unv) by .net code. Now, we have to move with BOBJ 4.1 and need to create .unx using .net application. Can anyone guide me how to do. I am trying to find IDT api reference but not getting anything. Please suggest.

Thanks,

Pankaj

Hello Pankaj,

Unfortunately there is no .NET SDK available as of now for create UNX universe. But you can use Semantic Layer Java SDKs for building UNX universe from scratch.

This SDK is available from BI 4.1 onwards. You can find all the Semantic Layer Java SDKs resources from the below link in the section Developer Documentation: Java:

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform 4.1 – SAP Help Portal Page

You can download the relevant resources according to your environment specification.

The other part that you can use is Semantic Layer REST SDKs. You can use .NET application for consuming the Semantic Layer REST Web services SDKs, but it doesn't gives you that level of flexibility which is provided through Semantic Layer Java SDKs(like creating universe from scratch, edit business layer, add/delete/refresh objects in DataFoundation etc.). You can also explore the functionality of Semantic Layer REST Web Service SDKs by following the link. The Semantic Layer REST Web Services is available from the BI 4.1 SP 2 onwards.

Hope this helps.


Thanks,

Shailendra

Why are you building a universe in .net?

Why not use the UDT/IDT?

We have to create .UNX file through .NET programe.

Why's that though? You don't have to, you can use the IDT - it's what it's there for!

How do you handle creation of a universe in 3.1 at the moment through the SDK?

How are things like contexts dealt with?
