universe metadata information using Java SDK

Welcome to B:bob:B!

On the XI platform, the universe is stored as a binary file on the filesystem part of the repository. Other than a very few pieces of information used for managing security, little is stored in the database part of the repository. In other words, the universe details are not able to be “queried” … Enterprise SDK or otherwise.

You can use the Designer SDK to extract the information from a local copy of the universe, however. See this utility … Document a universe using Excel and the Designer SDK … for an example.
