Hello,
I am currently using the Java Report Engine SDK to retrieve universe information such as universe name, ID, and child classes and objects. I'm able to retrieve class and object names, but am struggling to retrieve unique IDs for these classes and objects. For reference, I am retrieving universe classes as follows:
DataSourceObjects dataSourceObjects = docInstance.getDataProviders().getItem(0).getDataSource().getClasses();
Per the SDK docs, there is a getID() method available, but whenever I use this all that is returned is null. The only methods in DataSourceObject that seem to return data are getName and getDescription. Even getProperties() returns null.
It seems that the only way to retrieve a unique ID for classes and objects is through the COM Designer SDK? Has anyone been able to retrieve this info with Java?
Thanks...
