UDF in diff interfaces.

[Former Member]

consider i have a user defined function..which has been used for onr interface...

but i want the same to be used for the different interface which is in the same namespace or the other name space or other Software componenet version...

How can it be done....

To add

As of now,UDF is limited to Graphical Mapping that you created that cannot be reused in any other Mapping.This functionality is supposed to be coming in PI 7.1, more easily than deploying a jar file to file system which makes it posible to write a UDF and reuse in any MM.

No blog as per my knowledge but If at all you want to do something like this :

Create a java class with the method that you need to reuse

Create a JAR file for the java class

Import it into the Imported Archives

Use import statement like normal java program in your UDF and access the particular method in the code

Hi

No the feature is not available till Pi7.0

in PI7.1, function library will be introduced. UDF are saved in local function library belonging to a mapping object. To use a user defined function in more than one message mapping or mapping template you can create the user defined functions in function libraries.

Hi

A UDF can be used only in the same namespace where it has been defined.

If you want to do so what you have mentioned, create a jar of the Java program/class and use it in Imported archives wherever you want.

is there any blog on it MK

Its simple.

create your java program (UDF) and then make a jar file out of it.

import the same under your imported archives.

then in your mapping, you can call the program with the import statement inside a UDF.

no it is not possible to reuse UDF ..not even if your interface is in same namespace.
