How to add Maven dependency from a relative path referencing a local jar

When you want to add a dependency which is not stored in maven repositories to your project this is the way!! You can manually download it and include inside the project and refer it from the pom.xml through a relative path.

This example assumes that you have downloaded and stored the jar inside ${project}/src/test/resources/lib. 
       <dependency>
                <groupId>ojdbc</groupId>
                <artifactId>ojdbc6</artifactId>
                <scope>system</scope>
                <version>6</version>
                <systemPath>${basedir}/src/test/resources/lib/ojdbc6.jar</systemPath>
        </dependency>
Here we must specify the scope of the dependency  as 'system'. There is another way which is to manually install the maven dependency to your local repository. You can find out how from here.

Boomi Mapping - Removing special chars from an input

Image
Dell Boomi mapping shape provides numerous ways to modify/enrich an input via functions. In this post I am going to show how I validated and removed special chars from an input using Scripting and do it along with another string function. The user defined functions available with mapping, allows us to apply sequence of functions to the input. In this example, I am going to use it. Use Case: I have two input strings coming from the source profile (first_name and last_name), which I want to first concatanate together and then remove non-alphanumeric characters if present. Solution In your map, add an User Defined function and add two inputs; first_name, last_name.  Add User Defined function into the map Added inputs to the user defined function As the first step, add a function "String Concat" under the  "String" category.  Specify first_name and last_name as the inputs. Also set a delimiter, if you need a one. In my case, I want to concatena...

Boomi Mapping - User Defined function based on list of elements in a collection

Image
Recently I came across a requirement to validate all the elements in a collection and return an output based on that. Let me explain it with an example. I have a XML document containing information about users including a collection to indicate the roles of the person. Source Document <users> <user> <first_name></first_name> <roles> <role> admin </role> <role> subscriber </role> <role> creator </role> </roles> </user> </users> Destination Document I want to map this into a destination profile which has elements to indicate whther the user is an admin or a subsriber. <users> <user> <isAdmin> true </isAdmin> <isSubscriber> true </isSubscriber> <user> <users> </users> In order to achieve this I have to write a map funtion. But for a map funtion, we can't input a collection. If we map the "roles" collect...

Understanding Java Lamda Expression with examples

Lamda expression in Java was introduced in Java 8. This is one of my favorite, cool features of Java 8. This blog is intended to help understanding what is it, where and how can we use it. What is lamda expression? In simple words, Lamda expression in java is an anonymous function. It is defined with the parameter list and the function body. Below is the syntax of lamda expression. { parameter list } -> { function body } So what is actually meant by this definition? Although we define an anonymous function here, this is actually like an implementation to a method in an interface. Also, we can assign this lamda expression to a reference of the interface type. See example below. interface MyInterface { public String sayWelcome ( String name ); } public class LamdaExpSample { public static void main ( String args []) { MyInterface myIn = ( name ) -> { return "Welcome " + name ; }; } } ...
