[Java SDK] Getting Universe objects SQL definition

In order to document a BO XI 3.1 Universe, I have to use Java SDK.

I am using the DataSourceObject class to retrieve information such as the object name, the aggregation function for measures, the qualification.

I am trying to retrieve the SQL definition of each object (SELECT statement, source table, but I can’t manage to find these infos.

I am using the right methods/classes ? I yes, how can I retrieve all the infos I need. If not, what would be the method ?

Thanks by advance

Hi.
I’m not sure what you mean when you say you’re using the Java SDK to document the Universe as there is no Java SDK for the Universe. It’s a COM based object model. Maybe you mean you’re documenting the query within a WebI document possibly? Anyway, using this Universe SDK, you can get this sort of info - look at this post:

Thank you for your answer.

I finally changed my mind, according to all the answers I got. I am now using the COM component with VB, and it works perfectly.
