Re: Task 10 - The power of CDL with as-select (July Developer Challenge - "Reverse APIs")

Hi Matthias, thanks. That's odd, I haven't changed or redeployed anything recently. And the service seems to be running fine now. I'll dig into the logs to see if there is anything odd there.

Hi there @spassaro - thanks for the comment! Can you please explain a bit more, and provide some detail? What had you written, what do you mean "BAS asked me to ..." and what did you end up having to do? Can you share the code?

I'm not going to be able to comment on whether you're using destructuring assignment if you don't show me the code ... 🙂

Which bits are ambiguous? Your statement itself is a little ... ambiguous 😉

Thanks! Can you please explain what you mean about "t's also a little odd that "CDS REPL" was introduced at the last minute, because of some other blog series, of which I wasn't aware"? Cheers.

TRANSCRIPT

[Ajay] Hello, developers, September 2024 release of CAP is now available. The first update is about analytics for Capire Matomo is used to collect anonymized usage data for Capire, and users will have the option to disable the tracking. Coming to the Node.js updates, you can now import type definitions generated by the CDS typer on the top level code, even in the test code. Now we have richer JavaScript and TypeScript snippets in the compiler, which can now carry type information, allowing you to get a better insight into the APIs used there. Instance-based restrictions for bound actions and functions are now also enforced. SAP Cloud Application Event Hub is the new default offering for messaging in SAP Business Technology Platform, Integrating with SAP Cloud Application Event Hub is provided via a CDS plugin @cap-js/event-broker. Moving on to Java updates, we have enhancement to the code generator, where we now have stricter setters in the accessor interfaces. Accessor interfaces now offer the new factory method to access the data in the given map. Monitoring health status of MTX Sidecar is enabled with a new health indicator model provider. Parameter aliases in OData V4 for the entity key values and function parameter values are now also supported. You can easily add handler stubs using add handler CLI command in Java. A new serious property, ui5.version allows you to configure UI5 versions used by the Fiori preview. Finally, in the tools update, we have got beta release to visualize deployment descriptor mta.yaml file. This helps you to get a graphical overview of your microservices architecture and the interplay between the application and the services. This also works as a visual linter. There are two new experimental CDS lint checks, sql-null-comparison and no-java-keywords. For more details, please check the links provided in the description.

[Nico] Hi everyone, and welcome to the SAP Developer News. The SAP Fiori Innovation Day will happen on November 19th in Heidelberg, Germany in the SAP App Haus, interestingly the same location we were at for SAP TechEd Virtual a couple of weeks ago. The SAP Fiori Innovation Day is open for everyone, and it will be a packed day with content about the SAP Fiori design system, SAP Fiori elements, AI of course, and it will also contain partner sessions. There will also be a hands-on session about the SAP Fiori elements flexible programming model. Check out the link in the description for more information and to register. See you. Bye.

[Antonio] Hola, SAP developers. I have some exciting news to share with you today. The message status overview that we are so used to in SAP PI/PO is now available in SAP Integration Suite. The message status overview page provides a customizable overview of the messages process and their statuses in a selected time frame, as well as quick navigation to and from the message monitoring in your tenant. Also, there is a new adapter available to us in Cloud Integration. This is the SMB adapter, which will allow you to connect to a server using the SMB protocol, meaning that we can interact with an SMB server and read and write files. This is especially relevant for those on-premises integration scenarios. And finally, there is now an alternative solution in Cloud Integration to the MessageTransformBean adapter module that we often use in SAP PI/PO to aid with the transformation of the message during the runtime. It is in the form of Groovy scripts, which support most of the features that existed on the MTB module. Make sure to check it out. Ciao.

[DJ] If you're in or can get to the Brussels / Mechelen area of Belgium in early November, then there's a Tech Day happening on the latest SAP tools and technologies. Flexo Tech Day 2024 is happening on Thursday, the 7th of November. And following the welcome and keynote, There are sessions across three separate tracks, analytics and integration, extensions, and there's also a trending track. Now, the full agenda is online. The day is open to everyone, but spaces are limited. So head on over to the website to register. And at the end of the day, there's gonna be a beer tasting, mostly because the day is being held in a brewery. What's not to like? I'll be there. See you there too.

[Nico] Hi everyone, and welcome to the SAP Developer News. We're just wrapping up week three of Devtoberfest, which means there's just one week left for Devtoberfest 2024. So next week we'll have five more days of packed content, all about SAP development. So on Monday, it will be ABAP and CAP again. On Tuesday, Tooling Tuesday, we'll talk about the SAP Build family. Wednesday is Integration Day. On Thursday we talk about MAD, which is machine learning, AI and data. And Friday will be Frontend Friday as well as Fun Friday. And for Fun Friday next week there will be Spooktoberfest, so expect a spooky day. Overall, next week I counted 24 sessions scheduled, that's a lot of content and it's great content too. We hope to see many more familiar faces as well as new faces. Welcome if you're new to this channel. Now's your chance to earn points in the Devtoberfest gameboard and to progress towards Nerdvana, which would qualify you for the Devtoberfest grand prize. So hope to see you around and see you next time.

Bugtoberfest Wrap Up!

2024-10-21T15:00:00.066000+02:00

Posting on @MichelleMoudy 's behalf.

Bugtoberfest is officially over! I hope everyone who wanted to participate was able to complete the tutorials and find all the bugs! As the week is officially over, those of us who wrote these bug hunts wanted to share the intended bugs we wrote into them so y'all had an opportunity to check your work.

By the way, while Bugtoberfest is over, Spooktoberfest is this week's Fun Friday event - check out the details in the Spooktoberfest 2024 blog post!

But before getting to that, I wanted to share a bit about the origin of the name bug used for coding errors. While most believe the origin comes from a real moth getting comfy in a relay in the Mark II at Harvard in 1947, the word actually comes from the terms bugbear or bugaboo. The term bug as used to describe an issue or error in engineering and can be seen in use by Thomas Edison in 1878, well before it was used to describe software or hardware faults.

As a fun aside, us developer advocates had a debate to the origin of the term at a dinner during TechEd Virtual and I ruined many evenings by sharing this fun fact with everyone. I even had to read aloud an article to prove that it didn't originate from the Harvard moth (which was shared as folks found it really funny a bug was caused by a real bug), as I was met with such disbelief. As a result, I was told I had to include this "fun" fact and story somewhere in relation to Bugtoberfest.

For proof that I am in fact correct on the origin of the term bug, see here for more details and links to sources.

Now that everyone is aware of the origin of bugs, check out each of the sections below to see the bugs we purposefully wrote into our individual bug hunts.
