Title: Get list of report using the column/field using SDK
Post by: EArumugam on 06 Oct 2011 05:38:41 AM
Hi All,

In framework manager we have an option to identify the report dependencies for the columns, say Impact anlaysis.

Is it possible to do the same thru cognos SDK.
From which repository table we can get these details.?



Thanks
eas

You might be able to with the framework sdk.  You don't think you can through the regular development sdk.
The framework sdk is more or less a joke in my opinion... so good luck.  I don't think it is really an SDK as much as it is a scripting tool.  If you can script what you want framework manager to do, then yes.

If I am wrong, I'd like to know how too.  Good luck on a reply though.  It doesn't seem like a lot of people post in the SDK section of this forum.

Hi there,

I'm sure there is a way and there is a Content Manager Browser that can be downloaded from the IBM website that might help.  Java based,
There are a couple of products that also might be of assistance.  If you have budget there is MetaManager from BSP.

Really depends on the scope of your project in terms of time and budget,
Cheers
