Create lcmbiar from java sdk - few questions

[Former Member]

Hi!

I'm trying to make a .lcmbiar file for many of my BI objects (Webi, Universes, Connections without dependencies) - one .lcmbiar for one object. For now I do it in LCM command line tool, but it's not good, because it create job in CMC for each object and it takes time (it login to CMC for each execute). My questions are:

1. I need to create .lcmbiar without creating job in Promote Manager. How to do it?

2. It takes time to execute command for one objects (aspecially logging to SAP BO). Can I just one login, create biars (one biar for one object) and logout?

3. I see there is a lcm.jar, but it's only on server side (I don't see it when I install only client tools). Which jar's shoud I include? There is a 1.4 GB jars in \SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\java\lib\ folder and I think, that lcm don't need all...

4. There is a biarengine.jar, that create .biar file. Can I use this .biar's to import object in Promote Manager? What is a diffrence with .biar and .lcmbiar?

SAP BO 4.1 SP3

Thanks!

Hi Prithviraj,

I asked about LCMBIAR file. The documentation you attached concerns the BIAR file.

Unfortunately, you cannot create an lcmbiar file using the sdks. If you are looking to use the sdks, you would need to export the contents to a biar file and then import the contents from the biar using the sdks.

You cannot use the LCM tool to import the contents from a biar file created by using the sdks.
