This chapter introduces the Discoverer Web Services API and describes how to use the API. It contains the following topics:
"What is the SOAP endpoint URL for Discoverer Web Services?"
"What is a typical flow of events for accessing Discoverer Web Services API to return results?"
"Example of a Java class that invokes Discoverer Web Services"
SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) is a World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) recommendation for an XML protocol for exchanging information on the Web.
The Oracle BI Discoverer Web Services are part of an Application Programming Interface (API) that enables a client to do the following:
Obtain Discoverer connections, workbooks, and worksheets
Execute worksheet queries
Obtain worksheet content using the SOAP protocol (version 1.1 with JAX-WS/document wrapped format)
The SOAP endpoint URL for Discoverer Web Services is http(s)://<host>:<port>/discoverer/wsi
.
The WSDL (Web Services Definition Language) format is an industry standard that formally defines services and methods, and is used to define Discoverer Web Service APIs. Proxy classes for the services can be generated automatically.
Notes
The WSDL can be accessed from http(s)://<host>:<port>/discoverer/wsi?wsdl
This guide assumes that WSDL, SOAP technologies, and the method of generating client code from WSDL is known to a web services developer.
The Discoverer Web Services are accessible only by trusted users. You must obtain the trusted user name and password set up by the Discoverer middle-tier administrator, to use these credentials in your code.
For a code example that includes user credentials, see Example 1-4, "Set credentials to access the protected web service".
For information about how to create trusted users, see Defining a trusted user to access Discoverer Web Services.
The Discoverer Web Services support Oracle Single Sign-On , Oracle Applications Single Sign-On, and public connections in the current release.
The Discoverer Web Services are stateful in nature. In other words, every instance of the web service client stub needs to have a single HTTP session with the Discoverer Web Service. This HTTP session can be used for all web service operations, for all client application users. For every user, the client application needs to call the login method, to inform the Discoverer Web Service about a new user session. Every user session is associated with a dedicated Discoverer session on the server side which is either created or reused from the Discoverer session pool. The associated Discoverer session is used in all interactions with the user. The client application must ensure that it calls the logout method after completing all operations for the user.
The HTTP session established between the web service client and the server is tracked by cookies and is managed by the web service.
It is useful to know the Discoverer session pool size, because every login() call and subsequent data fetching operation requires a Discoverer session, and every logout() call releases the session.
The maximum session pool size value can be configured (in configuration.xml) using Oracle Fusion Middleware Control. The Discoverer session clean-up operation runs periodically removing any stale or inactive DiscovererSession objects from the pool.
The SSOusername, Connectionkey, Workbook, Worksheet, and Locale methods are all used to determine which Discoverer sessions to pick up, to optimize allocation of Discoverer sessions for new login requests.
The Discoverer Web Services can be distributed across a cluster and have no dependency on a single point of failure. Transparent failover is not supported; therefore in the event of a failure, each client must authenticate again to create new user sessions.
A web service API call can result in an exception that must be handled by the client. Error messages are displayed using the locale that was selected during login.
You can diagnose problems from log files and from web service exceptions. You can view log entries using Oracle Fusion Middleware Control. For more information, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer.
To invoke the Discoverer Web Services you must comply with the following:
"Setting values for Discoverer Web Services using Oracle Fusion Middleware Control"
"Writing a client application to invoke web services using generated web service client stubs"
Only trusted users can access Discoverer Web Services. You create trusted users by using the WebLogic Server Administration Console. For more information about creating users, see the "Create Users" topic in the WebLogic Administration Console Online Help.
Note: By default, the Administrators group is assigned a scoped security role for the Discoverer application. To provide access to Discoverer Web Services, you can add the new user to the Administrators group.For more information about adding users to groups, see "Add users to groups topic" in the WebLogic Administration Console Online Help. |
For the new user to access Discoverer Web Services, you must assign the Discoverer scoped security role to the new user. For more information about adding users to security roles, see the "Add users to roles" topic in the WebLogic Administration Console Online Help.
Before you create a Java class to invoke the Discoverer Web Services you must ensure that the Discoverer Web Services are installed and configured.
To verify that the Discoverer Web Services are installed and configured, you access the endpoint URL. If you cannot access the URL, contact the Discoverer manager.
Navigate to the link http://<host>:<port>/discoverer/wsi
.
You should be prompted for the user/password created in the earlier steps.
Note: You can also use the user name and password of the 'weblogic' user that was entered during installation (for more information, see your middle tier administrator).
The maxSessions setting for Discoverer Web Services should be configured using Fusion Middleware Control. This setting specifies the maximum number of Discoverer sessions that can be active at the same time (the recommended value is 20)
For more information about configuring Discoverer Web Services using Fusion Middleware Control, see the Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer.
You can obtain a set of proxy/client files by generating them from a set of web service client libraries. Oracle Web Services provide libraries for this purpose. For more information, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer's Guide for Oracle Web Services.
To generate the Discoverer Web Service client from the Discoverer WSDL URL:
Display a Web browser.
Access the Discoverer WSDL URL: http://<host>:<port>/discoverer/wsi?wsdl
For more information, see "What is the WSDL format?", and "Writing a client application to invoke web services using generated web service client stubs".
You must set the value of the SESSION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY in the web service library. The SESSION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY specifies whether sessions are stateful, and because Discoverer Web Services sessions are stateful, this property must be set to True
as follows:
Map requestContext = ((BindingProvider)proxy).getRequestContext(); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.SESSION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY,true);
Note: Each supported web service library has an equivalent SESSION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY
for maintaining stateful sessions. For more information, see your web service documentation.
The following code examples provide an illustration of a basic client application:
Example 1-1 Define a Java class
class webserviceclient { public static void main(String[] args) { } }
Example 1-2 Instantiate the web service client stub
class webserviceclient { @WebServiceRef private static Wsi_Service wsi_Service; public static void main(String[] args) { wsi_Service = new Wsi_Service(); wsiProxy proxy = wsi_Service.getWsi(); } }
Example 1-3 Ensure the client maintains the session
This is needed as the Discoverer web service is stateful.
class webserviceclient { @WebServiceRef private static Wsi_Service wsi_Service; public static void main(String[] args) { wsi_Service = new Wsi_Service(); wsiProxy proxy = wsi_Service.getWsi(); Map requestContext = ((BindingProvider)proxy).getRequestContext(); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.SESSION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY,true); } }
Example 1-4 Set credentials to access the protected web service
class webserviceclient { @WebServiceRef private static Wsi_Service wsi_Service; public static void main(String[] args) { wsi_Service = new Wsi_Service(); wsiProxy proxy = wsi_Service.getWsi(); Map requestContext = ((BindingProvider)proxy).getRequestContext(); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.USERNAME_PROPERTY,"username"); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.PASSWORD_PROPERTY,"password"); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.SESSION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY,true); } }
Example 1-5 Set the web service endpoint
class webserviceclient{ @WebServiceRef private static Wsi_Service wsi_Service; public static void main(String[] args) { wsi_Service = new Wsi_Service(); wsiProxy proxy = wsi_Service.getWsi(); Map requestContext = ((BindingProvider)proxy).getRequestContext(); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.USERNAME_PROPERTY,"username"); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.PASSWORD_PROPERTY,"password"); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY,"http://host:port/discoverer/wsi"); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.SESSION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY,true); }}
Example 1-6 Perform any web service operations on the stub
class webserviceclient{ @WebServiceRef private static Wsi_Service wsi_Service;f public static void main(String[] args) { wsi_Service = new Wsi_Service(); wsiProxy proxy = wsi_Service.getWsi(); Map requestContext = ((BindingProvider)proxy).getRequestContext(); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.USERNAME_PROPERTY,"username"); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.PASSWORD_PROPERTY,"password"); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY,"http://host:port/discoverer/wsi"); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.SESSION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY,true); DisplayName displayname = new DisplayName(); displayname.setUser("DISPLAYNAME"); Identifier idfr = new Identifier() ; idfr.setId("IDENTIFIER"); UserCredential uc = new UserCredential(); uc.setDisplayName(displayname); uc.setIdentifier(idfr); LocaleBean locale = new LocaleBean(); locale.setCountry("US"); locale.setLanguage("en"); locale.setVariant(""); SessionKey sKey = proxy.login(uc, locale); proxy.logout(sKey); }}
Note: To compile the above client application, the web service libraries must be set in the classpath. When using the Oracle libraries, soap.jar, Http_client.jar and the downloaded proxy.jar must be present. For example, if you run the client application from the command prompt, you might set the Java classpath as follows:
set CLASSPATH=<absolute path of>/proxy.jar;<absolute path of>\soap.jar;<absolute path of>\Http_client.jar
Note: If you use an integrated development environment such as Oracle JDeveloper or Eclipse, then set the Java classpath using the user interface for that environment
The Discoverer Web Services API can be used by a client application to obtain XML data related to Discoverer connections and worksheets. A typical flow of events is suggested in the following flow (for more information, see "Typical flow of events: Detailed task examples"):
Typical flow of events
"Use the identifier to invoke login()"
This starts a user session and provides a valid session key.
Note: Oracle E-Business Suite users must use the AppConnect() API to generate the session key. For more information, see "Secure Access to Discoverer Web Services for Oracle E-Business Suite Users". |
"Inspect the connection information by invoking getConnectionList()"
This returns a list of connections for clients to use for display and selection.
"Select a particular connection and invoke getFolderEntryList()"
This returns a list of workbooks for user display and selection.
In case of OLAP connections there can be folders along with workbooks.
"Select a particular worksheet by invoking getWorksheetList()"
This returns just a list of worksheets with empty parameter information.
"Get the layout of the worksheet by invoking getLayoutMetadata()"
"Select the parameter metadata for a worksheet by invoking getParameterMetadata()"
"Select a worksheet parameter and obtain its LOVs by invoking getParameterValueList()"
This returns the LOV data in chunks which is used by clients for user display and selection.
Alternatively, you can select worksheet parameters in the cascading style by invoking the getCascadeParameterValueList(). For more information see "Select worksheet parameters and obtain LOVs in the cascading style by invoking getCascadeParameterValueList()".
Note: If the worksheet does not contain parameters, then the client should not invoke getParameterValueList() or getCascadeParameterValueList().
"Submit a worksheet query (including parameters) by invoking submitWorksheetQuery()"
The client performs a submit, passing parameters if required.
A queryKey is obtained when a worksheet query request is submitted.
"Check the status of the query by invoking getQueryStatus()"
This returns the current status of the query for user display and selection.
"View worksheet data on completion of the query by invoking getWorksheetData()"
Note: Queries must be executed sequentially, so that when the client application performs a single login call for a user, it must ensure that the query submission for a worksheet is made only after the previous query submission has yielded results.
Note: For OLAP worksheets, the XML can contain aggregate totals. In that case, if the API client creates a total for an OLAP worksheet with Aggregate totals, it would yield wrong results.
The following flow of events shows some typical Java class entries for each task example.
The following code must be executed before you can successfully perform a login() API call.
wsi_Service = new Wsi_Service(); Wsi proxy = wsi_Service.getWsi(); Map requestContext = ((BindingProvider)proxy).getRequestContext(); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.USERNAME_PROPERTY,"weblogic"); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.PASSWORD_PROPERTY,"weblogic"); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY,testEndpoint); requestContext.put(BindingProvider.SESSION_MAINTAIN_PROPERTY,true);
You must provide the user credentials to invoke the Discoverer Web Services before you can use the login() call. For more information, see "Provide the credentials to invoke Discoverer Web Services".
Note: The login() call must be invoked before invoking any other Discoverer Web Services.
DisplayName displayname = new DisplayName(); displayname.setUser("DISPLAYNAME"); Identifier idfr = new Identifier() ; idfr.setId("IDENTIFIER"); UserCredential uc = new UserCredential(); uc.setDisplayName(displayname); uc.setIdentifier(idfr); LocaleBean locale = new LocaleBean(); locale.setCountry("US"); locale.setLanguage("en"); locale.setVariant(""); System.out.println("Invoke the login() WS API"); SessionKey sKey = proxy.login(uc, locale); System.out.println("Session Key :"+sKey.getKey());
Note: To access SSO-based connections, you can provide the GUID and SSOUsername as the Identifier and DisplayName respectively.
Instead of using the login() API, Oracle E-Business Suite users can provide the secure ticket and connection details using the AppsConnect()
API and access Discoverer Worksheets.
Notes:
|
LocaleBean locale = new LocaleBean(); locale.setCountry("US"); locale.setLanguage("en"); locale.setVariant(""); public SessionKey AppsConnect ( Ticket ticket, ConnectString connectStr, DiscoEulName eul, LocaleBean aLocale ) throws DiscovererWSException, DiscovererSessionUnavailableException System.out.println("Invoke the AppsConnect() WS API"); SessionKey sKey = AppsConnect(ticket,ConnectStr,eul,locale); System.out.println("Session Key :"+sKey.getKey());
In the AppsConnect()
API, Ticket
, ConnectString
, and DiscoEulName
are string wrapper objects. Values for these objects can be retrieved from the Discoverer URL that Discoverer users use to start Discoverer.
A sample Discoverer Viewer URL is given below:
http://hostname.domain
/discoverer/viewer?Connect=[APPS_SECURE]discor11&SessionCookieName=discor11&eul=EUL_US&opendbid=HRIPWCMP&FrameDisplayStyle=separate&acf=453560870&NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA&NLS_DATE_FORMAT=DD-MON-RRRR&NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS=.,&NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=AMERICAN&NLS_SORT=BINARY&exitURL=http://hostname.domain
/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?OAFunc=OAHOMEPAGE
The value of the SessionCookeName
parameter is the value that you pass for the Ticket
object.
The value of the Connect
parameter is the value that you pass for the ConnectString
object. In the above URL, it is [APPS_SECURE]discor11.
The value of the eul
parameter is the value that you pass for the DiscoEulName
object. In the above URL, it is EUL_US
.
The locale details can either be defined using the LocaleBean
object or retrieved from the URL.
The acf
parameter identifies the user/responsibility/security group. Any change in this parameter results in a new Discoverer session.
Once logged in, the user can invoke the getConnectionList() API to obtain a list of available connections as shown below:
System.out.println("Invoke the getConnectionList() API"); ConnectionList cl = proxy.getConnectionList(sKey); List conns = cl.getConnections(); System.out.println("Discoverer connections:"); for(int i=0; i<conns.size(); i++) { System.out.println("Name:"+conns.get(i).getConnectionName().getName()); System.out.println(" Key:"+ conns.get(i).getConnectionKey().getKey()); System.out.println(" Desc:"+ conns.get(i).getConnectionDesc().getDesc()); }
Before you can use the getFolderEntryList() API, you must provide credentials to invoke the Discoverer Web Services, and have a valid session key (by performing a login() call). For more information, see "Provide the credentials to invoke Discoverer Web Services", and "Use the identifier to invoke login()".
Note: Oracle E-Business Suite users must use the AppsConnect() API to generate the session key. After connecting to Discoverer using AppsConnect(), for invoking the getFolderEntryList() API, you can pass a NULL value for the ConnectionKey. |
ConnectionKey cKey = new ConnectionKey(); cKey.setKey("CONNECTIONKEY"); FolderEntryPath fPath = new FolderEntryPath(); fPath.setPath(""); System.out.println("Invoke the getFolderEntryList() API"); FolderEntryList fList = proxy.getFolderEntryList(sKey, cKey, fPath); List fEntries = fList.getFolderEntries(); for(int i=0; i<fEntries.size(); i++) { System.out.println("Name:"+ fEntries.get(i).getName().getName()); System.out.println(" Path:"+ fEntries.get(i).getPath().getPath()); System.out.println(" Desc:"+fEntries.get(i).getDesc().getDesc()); System.out.println(" Type:"+ fEntries.get(i).getType().getType()); }
Notes:
|
You can use the getWorksheetList() API to get a list of worksheets for a given workbook.
Note: Oracle E-Business Suite users do not require to create a ConnectionKey as they connect to Discoverer using theAppsConnect() API. After connecting to Discoverer, for invoking the getWorksheetList() API, the ConnectionKey associated with the workbook can be passed as NULL or an empty string. |
WorkbookKey wbKey = new WorkbookKey(); wbKey.setConnKey(cKey); wbKey.setKey("ANALYTIC_FUNCTION_EXAMPLES"); System.out.println("Invoke the getWorksheetList() API"); WorksheetList wsList = proxy.getWorksheetList(sKey, wbKey); List wsheets = wsList.getWorksheets(); for(int i=0; i<wsheets.size(); i++) { System.out.println("Name:" +wsheets.get(i).getName().getName()); System.out.println(" Key:"+wsheets.get(i).getKey().getKey()); }
The Key that you obtained from the above call can be used as the worksheet key for the subsequent web service calls.
This API provides information about the dimensions of a Discoverer worksheet.
WorksheetKey wsKey = new WorksheetKey(); wsKey.setWbKey(wbKey); wsKey.setKey("ANALYTIC_FUNCTION_EXAMPLES/1817"); System.out.println("Invoke the getLayoutMetadata() API"); Layout layout = proxy.getLayoutMetadata(sKey, wsKey); List dimensions = layout.getDimensions(); List measures = layout.getMeasures(); for(int i=0; i< dimensions.size(); i++) { System.out.println("Dimension :"+dimensions.get(i).getName()); } for(int i=0; i<measures.size(); i++) { System.out.println("Measure :"+measures.get(i).getName()); }
Use this API to check whether any parameter metadata is available for the worksheet.
System.out.println("Invoke the getParameterMetaData() API"); ParameterList pList = proxy.getParameterMetadata(sKey, wsKey); List parameters = pList.getParameters(); for(int i=0; i< parameters.size(); i++) { System.out.println("Name:"+ parameters.get(i).getName().getName()); System.out.println(" Key:"+parameters.get(i).getKey().getKey()); }
This API returns an empty list if the worksheet does not contain any parameter.
The parameters for this API are sessionKey, parameterKey, and an integer.
ParameterKey pKey = new ParameterKey(); pKey.setKey("ANALYTIC_FUNCTION_EXAMPLES/1817/36211"); pKey.setWsKey( wsKey); ParameterValueList pvList = proxy.getParameterValueList(sKey,pKey,new Integer(50)); List pvs = pvList.getParamValues(); System.out.println("Invoke the getParameterValueList() API"); System.out.println("Parameter Lovs:"); for(int i=0; i< pvs.size(); i++) { System.out.println("Val :"+pvs.get(i).getValue()); // Lov System.out.println(" DescriptorKey :"+pvs.get(i).getDescriptorKey()); //paramter descriptor key. This is valid if the parameter is an indexed type; }
The parameters for this API are sessionKey, parameterKey, an integer, and ParameterSelectList.
// Code to retrieve cities from the region 'west'. // To build the ParameterSelectList with the region as "west" ParameterValue[] pval_region = new ParameterValue[1]; pval_region[0] = new ParameterValue(); pval_region[0].setValue("West"); pval_region[0].setDescriptorKey(null); ParameterSelect[] pselect_region = new ParameterSelect[1]; pselect_region[0] = new ParameterSelect(); pselect_region[0].setKey(pKey_region); ArrayList<ParameterValue> pval_regionlist = new ArrayList<ParameterValue>(); pval_regionlist.add(pval_region[0]); pselect_region[0].getValues().addAll(pval_regionlist); ParameterSelectList pselectList= new ParameterSelectList(); ArrayList<ParameterSelect> pSelectArraylist = new ArrayList<ParameterSelect>(); pSelectArraylist.add(pselect_region[0]); pselectList.getSelParams().addAll(pSelectArraylist); // To get the values for the city parameter ParameterKey pKey_city = new ParameterKey(); pKey_city.setKey("XMLP_PARAMETERSCASCADE/1/10"); pKey_city.setWsKey(wsKey); do { pvList = proxy.getCascadeParameterValueList(sKey,pKey_city,new Integer(10),pselectList); pvs= pvList.getParamValues(); System.out.println("Invoke the getParameterValueList() API"); System.out.println("Parameter Lovs: "+pvs.size()); for(int i=0; i< pvs.size(); i++) { System.out.println("Val :"+pvs.get(i).getValue()); // Lov System.out.println(" DescriptorKey :"+pvs.get(i).getDescriptorKey()); } }while (pvs.size()>0 );
The parameters for this API are sessionKey, workSheetKey, ParameterSelectList and QueryOption.
ParameterSelectList helps you to pass a list of selected parameters. The code below is for multiple parameters and multiple vales for each parameter.
ParameterValue[] pval = new ParameterValue[1]; pval[0] = new ParameterValue(); pval[0].setValue("Aladdin"); pval[0].setDescriptorKey(null); pval[1] = new ParameterValue(); pval[1].setValue("A Few Good Men"); pval[1].setDescriptorKey(null); ParameterSelect[] pselect = new ParameterSelect[1]; pselect[0] = new ParameterSelect(); pselect[0].setKey(pKey); ArrayList pvallist = new ArrayList(); pvallist.add(pval[0]); pvallist.add(pval[1]); pselect[0].getValues().addAll(pvallist); ParameterSelectList pselectList = new ParameterSelectList(); ArrayList pselectlist = new ArrayList(); pselectlist.add(pselect[0]); pselectList.getSelParams().addAll(pselectlist);
The QueryOption helps you to control the properties of the result set. The supported result types are XMLROWSET, PDF, HTML, and XLS. For the XMLROWSET type, you can specify the number of rows per fetch.
From the QueryOptions that you specify, the applicable options are considered; the others are discarded.
ResultType rt = new ResultType(); rt.setType("XMLROWSET"); QueryOption qo = new QueryOption(); qo.setChunkSize(1021); qo.setNoOfrows(25); qo.setResultType(rt); qo.setUserCredential(uc);
The code below submits the query.
QueryKey qKey = proxy.submitWorksheetQuery(sKey, wsKey,pselectList,qo); System.out.println("Query Key :" + qKey.getKey());
String status=""; String resultsReady = "Results Ready"; String cancelled = "Cancelled"; QueryStatus qs = null; while(!status.equalsIgnoreCase(resultsReady) && !status.equalsIgnoreCase(cancelled)) { qs = proxy.getQueryStatus(sKey, qKey); status = qs.getStatus(); System.out.println("Status :"+qs.getStatus()); Thread.sleep(5); }
Once you get the query status as Ready, you can get the worksheet data using the getWorksheetData() API. The code below shows how to get the worksheet data for XMLROWSET result type.
if(qs!= null && qs.getStatus().equalsIgnoreCase(resultsReady)) { System.out.println("Invoking getWorksheetData() API"); QueryResult qr = null; do { qr = proxy.getWorksheetData(sKey, qKey,false); String data = qr.getData(); if (qo.getResultType().getType().matches("XMLROWSET") ) { System.out.println("------------Data block begin------------"); System.out.println(data); System.out.println("------------Data block end------------"); } }while(qr.isFinished()== false); }
The following code sample explains how to get the worksheet data for a binary data type (for example, XLS).
if(qs!= null && qs.getStatus().equalsIgnoreCase(resultsReady)) { System.out.println("Invoking getWorksheetData() API"); QueryResult qr = null; do { qr = proxy.getWorksheetData(sKey, qKey,false); String data = qr.getData(); if(qo.getResultType().getType().matches("XLS") ) { String opFilename = "/tmp/out.xls" ; else if Base64Decoder myBase64Decoder = new Base64Decoder(); byte _myTempByteArray [] = null; FileOutputStream fout = null; String opFilename = "/tmp/out.xls" ; try { fout =new FileOutputStream(opFilename); } catch(FileNotFoundException e) { System.out.println("Error Opening Output File"); return; } _myTempByteArray = myBase64Decoder.decode(data); fout.write(_myTempByteArray); } }while(qr.isFinished()== false); }
proxy.logout(sKey);
