Castor XSD Code Generation ANT task: mapping XML file?

Hello,
I am new to Castor and am using the Castor Code Generator ANT task to generate code from a XSD schema file.
I am using a binding XML file as well. One thing that I have a question about is the needed XML mapping file. I set the ‘*generateMapping*’ attribute to ‘true’ but have not found a mapping XML document.
Is there something I am doing wrong?
I would have attached the XSD files(some are imported), binding XML file and the ANT build.xml file in a .zip file to this post, but this forum does not have a facility for file attachments, but I can email them upon request.
Thanks in advance,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
JAXB is the Java standard (JSR-222) for generating Java classes from an XML schema. Several implementations of this standard are available:
- Metro JAXB: The JAXB reference implementation, available in Java SE 6 and as part of GlassFish
- EclipseLink JAXB (MOXy): Part of EclipseLink, also available in Oracle TopLink
- JaxMe: Available from Apache
- Etc...
Castor is a proprietary XML binding tool. For Castor related questions you should visit the Castor website.

All I want for my birthday is my jaxrpc-mapping.xml file.........;-)

I am using JWSDP 2.0 with JDK 1.5. I have developed an ant script for building my web service files. When the script runs, the command line arguments are passed to the wscompile:
wscompile -d C:\WorkSpaceForMyEclipse\WebService\WebContent\WEB-INF\classes "-features:rpcliteral, wsi" -g -import -keep -nd C:\WorkSpaceForMyEclipse\WebService\descriptors -s C:\WorkSpaceForMyEclipse\WebService\JavaSource -verbose -Xprintstacktrace -Xserializable C:\WorkSpaceForMyEclipse\WebService\WebContent\WEB-INF\wsdl\webservice-config.xml -classpath <all the jar files from jwsdp project> <project jars>This all works well and good.
My problem is I am not seeing a jaxrpc-mapping.xml file being created.
When I add the mapping=${path}/jaxrpc-mapping.xml to the ant task, the builds break saying -mapping is not an option for wscompile....
Am I doing something wrong? Can some guide me in the right direction for creating the mapping file? When I try axis, the mapping file is created, but it is not populated with any mappings. All I want for Christ is my jaxrpc-mapping.xml file. :-)
Thanks in advance for reading my post. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Russ

If you are using rpc/literal and jdk 1.5, you would be better off using JAX-WS which does not require a mapping file. JAX-WS is the next generation Web services API that replaces JAX-RPC. Check out http://jax-ws.dev.java.net.

Newbie Question: Gererating a mapping xml file

How is castor used, if even, to generate the mapping xml files from the classes generated by castor from an xsd? I have a(n) xsd that has many complex types and this called for the generation of many castor classes from that xsd...so, using these class files...how do I generate a single mapping xml file?
Here is the means by wich we use these two (the xsd and mapping file) in one of our methods?
xmlWriter.write(req, res, someDetail, "someDetail.castor.xml",
"someDetail.xsd");
Prior to this, the xsd files were simple and I created the mapping file by hand. I don't know how this translates when there are so many classes that were generated by caster.
Can someone point me in the direction of more information on how to create this mapping file from all of these classes?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Can do... I have been working on a readme.install to this end. One question about the pre_upgrade script. /usr/share/pacman/proto.install states:
## arg 1: the new package version
## arg 2: the old package version
#post_upgrade() {
# do something here
I'm confused by the arg 1 and arg 2. Is it simply the version number with nothing else.
EDIT: ok.. I get it, Assign a variable to them to capture and check.
# $1: The new package version
# $2: The old package version
post_upgrade() {
NEW=`echo $1`
OLD=`echo $2`
if [ "$OLD" = "1.0.1" ]; then
do something

How to map XML File input to VO (eventually to update table) upon fileupld

Reqirement: I am downloading an XML File (basically name-value pair) from user using OAMessageFileUploadBean. I need to take this file and update to an existing record in the table (cs_incidents_all). XML File schema is well-known in advance.
Approach: Don't know what is the best, but I'm thinking if there is an OAF way to map the XML File (Blobdomain) to VO and get the rowIMPL.getColumn1Value to fetch all the datavalues then loop thru all the columns (xml-tags) and finally call plsql APIs which will update/insert into table (cs_incidents_all)
Is this possible in OAF? If so please shed some light as to how to map XML File to VO.
If this is not possible then please let me know the other way. I have to do this inside the oaf.
Thank you,

Can someone please let me know if this is possible in OAF?

Hibernate mapping XML files for the two SQL Server tables below.

Hello all..,
Question 1:
I am working on a project that needs to support a database with an inherited legacy schema that you cannot change. The schema is provided below.Hibernate mapping XML files for the two SQL Server tables below. Please provide those two XML files. Assume some hypothetical package and class names. Assume that no "fancy" stuff such as lazy initialization, optimistic locking etc is needed at this time.
CREATE TABLE [SURVEY_ANSWERS] (
[ANSWER_ID] [int] IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL,
[QUESTION_ID] [int] NOT NULL,
[POSITION] [int] NULL,
[TEXT] [varchar](350) NULL
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] (
      [QUESTION_ID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
      [TEXT] [varchar] (350) NULL
GO
ALTER TABLE SURVEY_ANSWERS
ADD CONSTRAINT pk_SURVEY_ANSWERS PRIMARY KEY(ANSWER_ID,QUESTION_ID);
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] ADD
       PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
            [QUESTION_ID]
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_ANSWERS] ADD
       FOREIGN KEY
            [QUESTION_ID]
      ) REFERENCES [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] (
            [QUESTION_ID]
      )Question 2:
Assume that you are working on a project developing, say, a banking application. You are the Architect and thinking that Hibernate ORM should be used for the entire access to the relational database. As usual, you have created (or auto-generated) a set of HBM XML files as well as POJOs for which you define the mappings. Assume now that a new requirement has just popped up. The system needs to be able to import new bank accounts and user information in bulk from a very large XML file at once and store it in the database. Assume the XML file contains all necessary information to populate fields in database tables. As performance is very important for this operation. Given this description, how would you approach the problem?
Please describe briefly.
-Thanks and regards

WSDL Generation Ant Task

Hi
I can see the ANT tasks to generate WAR/EAR for a given EJB/POJO service implementation
- but I dont see any options to output a WSDL file. Is there one?
I realise that I can obtain the WSDL from a deployed service via ?WSDL, but I
really need to generate the WSDL file as part of the build.
Cheers,
-Nick

Hi Nick,
There will be a wsdlgen ant task in coming release. It should solve your
problem. For now you can run clientgen on the ear, there is a wsdl saved in
the generated client jar.

Inheritance of mapping xml files?

How can one use inheritance (or other technique) to generate mapping files to be bundled with common components that are shared among several departments/projects. The original map (XML) would be distributed in a jar file with the classes. The idea is that the other people might want to extend components but don't want to have to map all of the objects again. Just want to add some new methods.

Currently for coherent use of the MW, objects that inherit mappings must be in the same project (mapping file). This means that the common mapping file would need to be used as a starting point for the different components, and amendment methods/code APIs would have to be used at deployment by each of the components to modify the project according to their needs.

Mutiple mapping XML files for one datasource

One of our projects raised the following question. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
"Can we have mutiple ToplinkMappings.xml files for one database? The reason we are looking at it is, our toplinkMappings.xml file size is keep growing in size(right now 2.2MB), we are getting into issues while comparing with the previous versions. The PVCS diff tool and beyond compare tools are not able to interpret the corresponding blocks of code on both the versions properly."

Hi Haiwei,
Yes, you can have multiple deployment.xml files in a session. Take a look at Configuring Multiple Mapping Projects.

Calling Ant Tasks on mulitple files

Hello, I was wondering if this was possible in Ant. I have a directory with multiple sub-directories. In each of those subdiretories there is a build.xml Ant file. Each one of them has a Target that I run, called "build".
Is it possible to create a main Ant Build file that will iterate through every build.xml file it finds in the sub-directories and call the target "build" on it? I couldn't find a way to do this. Thanks!

Hi,
I hope the following Script may help you
build.xml
     |
     --dir
         |
         build.xml
         |
         dir1
            |
            build.xml
         |
         dir2
            |
            build.xml
The master build.xml may call the build.xml which is commmon to all sub-directories
<project>
<target name="Master build" description="The master build" >
    <ant antfile="/dir/build.xml" target="build_directories" />
</target>
</project>
"dir" directory may have a common build.xml which call the build.xml of each and every subdirectory.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project default="build_dir">
     <target name="build_directories" description="Builds sub directories" >
          <subant>
               <fileset dir="../dir">
                         <include name="*/build.xml" />
               </fileset>
          </subant>
    </target>
</project>
subdir1 and subdir2 may have each and own copy of build.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project default="make">
<target name="Common-build" description="Build Common jar">
     <jar destfile="test1.jar" basedir="." />
</target>
</project>Please let me know if you've any queries/suggestions

Help -- Who has experience with ant and build.xml files ?

Hi,
I think my build.xml file is missing setting a classpath I need, but I have never played around with a build.xml file. Could someone help ?
Thank you.
Grazia

A lot of people here use ant. But not all of us can read your mind, and those of us that can are sadistic bastards that like to force people to provide details of their problems just for the hell of it.
So please do the following:
* Go through an ant tutorial or other introductory docs, doing an example or two if present.
* Set up your build.xml according to what you've learned.
* If it still doesn't work, post the relevant portions of it (hopefully you'll have a small, representative sample that reproduces the problem), along with your relevant directory and file structure, the command you're running, and what error messages you're getting.

Problem in Creating .wsdl file and mapping.xml with ant

hi
i am created my .wsdl file and mapping.xml file with wscompile tool but when i run this by ant tool it show a problem.
the command runs on command prompt but when run throught ant file it shows a following error :-
Execute failed: java.io.IOException: CreateProces: wscompile -define -mapping build\classes\META-INF\mapping.xml -d . -nd build\.................and so on
so if anybody have any idea then plz help me asap
thanx

The following Ant snippet is the way I've defined my wscompile task. I'm creating a web application and it looks like yours might be an EJB endpoint, but you can adjust where necessary:
<taskdef name="wscompile" classname="com.sun.xml.rpc.tools.ant.Wscompile">
     <classpath refid="compile.classpath" />
</taskdef>
<target name="init">
     <echo message="-------- ${appname} --------" />
</target>

     <target name="generate-server-from-WSDL" depends="init">
          <wscompile fork="yes"
                       keep="true"
                       base="${basedir}/WebContent/WEB-INF/classes"
                       import="true"
                       features="wsi"
                       xPrintStackTrace="true"
                       verbose="true"
                       mapping="${basedir}/WebContent/WEB-INF/jaxrpc-mapping.xml"
                       sourcebase="${basedir}/src"
                       config="${config.server.doclit.file}">
               <classpath>
                    <path refid="compile.classpath" />
               </classpath>
          </wscompile>
     </target>
     <target name="compile-server-from-WSDL" depends="generate-server-from-WSDL">
          <javac srcdir="${basedir}/src" destdir="${basedir}/WebContent/WEB-INF/classes" debug="${compile.debug}">
               <classpath refid="compile.classpath" />
          </javac>
     </target>Just make sure that the named destination directories exist before you run the script.
If you'd like more details on the wscompile Ant task, I found the following pages invaluable:

Mappings code generation : regular SQL / cursor PL/SQL

Hi,
When designing mappings, I fear that code generation can be potentially dangerous, because OWB automatically chooses the best method to generate the code (regular SQL or PL/SQL).
I am looking for some examples where code generation for a mapping:
- gives a regular SQL statement
- gives a cursor-based PL/SQL
- a small change in a mapping makes a regular SQL mapping to be transformed in a cursor-based PL/SQL
Thank you
Alexandre

I have not said that different modes executes at the same way what the use to have different options if they actually mean the same, right? I have said that they produced the same result i.e. if you expect the mapping to insert 1000 rows from the source to the target it will be done no matter which operation mode you choose.
But by different ways. To keep it simple lets say that:
set base mode will result in:
insert into target ()
select from source;
row based will result in:
begin
for a in (select * from source) loop
insert into target
end loop;
end;
Now lets assume that 5 rows from those 1000 you are going to insert, will break some NOT NULL constraint at the target.
If you choose Set-base mode entire insert from select will fail resulting no rows is inserted into target. Audit trail will contain message like constraint violated and thats it. You will have to find bad records by yourself.
If you choose Row-base mode 995 rows will be inserted (depending on mapping configuration) into the target and 5 will be listed in audit trail with the same constraint violated message.
Thats why default operating mode is Set based fail over to Row based. That means OWB will try to execute mapping in the fastest way set based, but if it fail, it will try again to accomplish the task by running in row base mode, providing complete audit trail fro bad rows.
