Frustrating CI Issue PSBusComp error

I've been having an issue when connecting to a CI (peopleTools 8.49.11) in that as I start working with a component and iterating through data to dump in, there seems to be a point where the OS kills the process that I am using.

Here is what I am doing:

Pulling the rows to insert directly from the DB
Connecting to a CI via JSL to the App server
Start the Loop to pump the data in
The first rows go in well
The the App server kills the run after 1 or two rows
Session is reset

I have interactive mode off, get and edit history are also off.
It seems to be specific to this component, or component type (the size?). Our Admins tell me it is a segmentation falt and the process is killed by the OS. Thanks Mr. OS! :)

There doesn't seem to be any Cobol or really intensive people code. Technically this shouldn't matter as interactive mode is turned off and I don't get to the point of saving, so it should be triggered.

I don't know if it matters, but I am going to check to see if 'Expert Entry' is enabled on the user that is connecting to the app server.

PeopleSoft: Stop Save of a page from PeopleCode

For some reason I had an issue figuring out how to stop the saving of a page… Then I was doing something completely unrelated and said, “DUH!!!”

 

To stop a save during validation in PeopleCode throw an error… Use only in the SaveEdit event. Don’t use it in FieldDefault, FieldFormula, RowInit, FieldChange, Prepopup, RowInsert, SavePreChange, or SavePostChange

 

Error  “Some String”;

 

You can use the MsgGet, MsgGetText functions too, if you add your own entries to the catalog.

 

PeopleCode: Change Options in a Drop down List

In PeopleSoft it is “easy” to change the drop down list options on Row-init …

This is from a co-worker. Used to change the options that students see for attendance (for specific class type)

If …… Then

/* Clear the current dropdown
values */
CLASS_ATTENDNCE.ATTEND_REASON.ClearDropDownList();
CLASS_ATTENDNCE.ATTEND_REASON.AddDropDownItem("ALCT", "Allowed
Cut"); CLASS_ATTENDNCE.ATTEND_REASON.AddDropDownItem("CANC",
"Cancelled"); CLASS_ATTENDNCE.ATTEND_REASON.AddDropDownItem("OTHR",
"Absent Other");
CLASS_ATTENDNCE.ATTEND_REASON.AddDropDownItem("PRES", "Present");
CLASS_ATTENDNCE.ATTEND_REASON.AddDropDownItem("SECT", "Second Cut");
CLASS_ATTENDNCE.ATTEND_REASON.AddDropDownItem("SICK", "Sick");

End-If;

Checking a Peron's Roles within PeopleCode

For manually securing object or doing some kind of filtering, it is regularly useful to know what roles a person has in their user profile. Peoplesoft provides a global variable to give you access to the person’s roles.

Example:

Local array of string &Roles;

Local integer &I;

&Roles = %Roles;
&doTransfer = True;

For &I = &Roles.Len To 1 Step - 1
If &Roles [&I] = "My Special Role" Then
&doTransfer = False;
End-If;
End-For;
