Get universe objects used in a web intelligence document's dataprovider.

I am writing this blog as an extension to the document available at Java Enterprise BE12 Get Webi Report Objects

If there is a change in the object definition in a universe it becomes necessary to know how many reports would get affected in BusinessObjects by this change. The following code provides a way to get the universe objects used in dataproviders of a web intelligence document. Additionally ,it retrieves the class definition for all the objects which makes it easier to track down if two objects have similar name but belong to different classes.

While running the code, you have to provide a folder id, for which you want all the webi report data objects. This will also bring reports in sub folders.

For more scripts and information on how to run these scripts refer to the blog avaiable here:

shawn.penner/blog/2013/06/04/scripts-and-samples

Below is the Java Server Pages (JSP) sample

Note:

•You would need to change the userName, password, cmsName  to the values specific to your enterprise server in the provided sample code.

• The sample code will only run with BO XI 3.1 version of SAP BusinessObjects Platform
