SOA - Update Schedule Object

I was writing SOA code to modify schedule object, thought it will be helpful if I share....

#1. My requirement is to update a schedule object.

#2. I cannot directly update a schedule object using RAC API until unless it is a TCComponent.

#3. I searched for ScheduleManagementService from BMIDE services folder. 

#4. To establish any SOA service, we need to get the service connection by,

#5. As my requirement is to only update schedule object.

            a. Firstly, I need to get the schedule object tag.

            b. I found that I can use ServiceData data =                                                          scmService.updateSchedules(updateContainer); service to update schedules.

Data is SOA service return information

updateContainer contains all information of your updated schedule object. // look into the attachment for further usage of update container.

  

Hope this is helpful....

  

// modify "is_template" attribute value to "no"...

modifySchedule(schedules,session);

private void modifySchedule(TCComponent[] schedules, TCSession session) {

// TODO Auto-generated method stub

session = (TCSession) AIFUtility.getDefaultSession();

System.out.println("**** SESSION= "+session);

ScheduleManagementService scmService = ScheduleManagementService.getService(session);

try {

for (int inx = 0; inx < schedules.length; inx++) {

        String objectName = schedules[inx].getProperty("object_name");                     

        TCComponent schedule = schedules[inx];

        AttributeUpdateContainer[] attributeContainer = new                                                                         AttributeUpdateContainer[1];

        attributeContainer[0] = new AttributeUpdateContainer();

        attributeContainer[0].attrName = "is_template";

        attributeContainer[0].attrType = 6;

        attributeContainer[0].attrValue = Boolean.toString(false);

        ObjectUpdateContainer[] updateContainer = new ObjectUpdateContainer[1];

        updateContainer[0] = new ObjectUpdateContainer();

        updateContainer[0].object = schedule;

        updateContainer[0].updates = attributeContainer;

     try {

     ServiceData data = scmService.updateSchedules(updateContainer);

     } catch (ServiceException e) {

     // TODO Auto-generated catch block

     e.printStackTrace();

     }    

     }

     } catch (TCException e) {

     // TODO Auto-generated catch block

     e.printStackTrace();

     }

}
