Classes for converting a flat file to XML

I've been asked to convert text in a flat file to an XML document. The XML document must conform to an XML schema. Currenlty, there is no requirement to store the resulting xml in the database.
Therefore my approach will be:
1. parse the flat file and store the contents in an array (the flat file and target xml is fairly simple in structure)
2. Transfer the contents of the array to the xml structure
3. validate the xml against the schema
I'm new to Java. Therefore, what classes should I be using to assist in step 2. Obvoiusly, I dont want to have to write my own implementation from scratch (i.e. a method to build an element, method to escape reserved characters etc).
Could you please suggest classes that cover both DOM and SAX API's.
I'm working with a 9.2.0.4 database and XDK.
Thanks

Convertion of flat file to XML using DOM

Hi!
I need help for convert a flat file to XML using DOM and by taking the validation of a specified DTD. Can any body help me in this regard.
Bye,
lat

first you have to decide how the flat file will map to xml. Will you use attributes or pcdata for your fields, or both? Will there be a hierarchy, or will it be mostly flat?
Once decided, you'd probably just use a BufferedReader to read the lines one at a time, and generate Dom nodes as appropriate, and stick them in the tree.

How to convert flat file to XMl without key field value

Hi experts,
I have a input CSV Flat file which has got one HEADER line and Multiple Detail records.
I do not have any key field value to convert this FLAT file to XML using normal file content conversion.
Is there any module or Bean which can be used to convert this Flat File to XML.
Or any other remedy to overcome this problrm.
Thanks in advance.

Pradeep

Hi Saurabh,
Thanks for the reply.
Ur understanding is perfectly alright.Lets say my file is like below.
Account Number,Account Name,Currency,Unclear Balance,Account Balance010205000033,VAISHNAVI SALES CORPN,0.00,0.00,350000.00
010205000034,CHAKKA ENTERPRISES,0.00,-641350.47,8649.53

010205000038,PIONEER AGENCIES,0.00,-696386.00,303614.00
I am not using the first line in the mappiing.
Are you saying that I need to ignore the first line while doing the conversion using Recordset OFFSET ?
Or do I need to make a single structure taking all the fields from header as well as details and while defining the structure I need to ignore the fields from header?
Please suggest.

URGENT : Program to convert flat file to XML file.

Hello,
       Good Morning. I want an urgent program to convert a flat file seperated by '/' to an XML file format and store that in the the application server. If any one has done such a developement, could you please send me the code.
The flat file format is as below :
72/070414/114147/11973//100-//EA/00000000///04198//RRT0/RC23///////353825001511172/72/070414/123620/11973//1000//EA/00000000///04198//RRT0/RC23///////354762008125236/72/070414/125411/13814//1000//EA/00000000///04198//INV/ID06///////90000000002697/72/070414/140820/11973//1000//EA/00000000///04198//RRT0/RC23///////353057002479718/72/070414/145438/13814//1000//EA/00000000///04198//INV/ID06///////90000000002739/72/070414/145438/11973//1000-//EA/00000000///04198//INV/ID06///////353057002479718/72/070414/150008/13814//1000
It needs to be filtered by removing the '/' and also grouped based on two fields namely store number and transaction number. The sample XML output required is as below :

Any help or suggestion please.
Thank you.

Hi, Ranjan.
First of all, let's look at the meaning of the error.
> ...Exception: ERROR converting document line no. 2 according to
> structure 'GL_FileUpload_SAPECC_Header_DT1':java.lang.Exception:
> ERROR in configuration: more elements in file csv structure than
> field names specified!
It seems that XI interpreted 2nd line as
Header_DT1 not as Item_DT1 that you meant.
> GL,GLI,4011,3011,,,,,,AU,600,7000,8000,9000,5000,RK,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
That's why it says this line has more elements than the structure
defined(Header_DT1)
And the reason why XI misinterpreted the above as Header is that
you used keyFieldValue with the same value.
> ...Header_DT1.keyFieldValue: GL
> ...Item_DT1.keyFieldValue: GL
According to the following help,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm
it says like the following.
Key Field Name
If you specified a variable number of substructures for Recordset
Structure, in other words, at least one substructure has the value
*, then the substructures must be identified by the parser from
their content. This means that a key field must be set with different
constants for the substructures. In this case, you must specify a key
field and the field name must occur in all substructures.
How about using different constants for header and item if possible?
Good luck.

Where is MQ coming in to picture here, You receiving data from SAP and sending Main Frame system,as per your post.
so we can SAP->PI-->MAINFRAMES.most of the times we sent data to main frame system in the form of test files,so you can use receiver adapter file and use file content conversion.
thats it.

Hi Anitha,
You should use File content conversion to convert flat file into XML file.
Please check the below link, which help you to know how to do it.

XSLT Mapping to convert u201C.CSVu201D file into XML Structure.

Hi All,
I wanted to know can we use XSLT Mapping to convert u201C.CSVu201D file into XML Structure.
I am communicating between two XI Systems. First XI system is going to give u201C.CSVu201D file as main document. I need to post IDOC Corresponding to this. So what I want to do is read this u201C.CSVu201D file (Main document in payload) and first convet it into XML and then use second mapping which will convert XML to IDOC.
I know this is possible with JAVA Mapping but just wanted to confirm can we do this with XSLT mapping as well?

Gouri

Hi Amit,
I know this way it shd work as i am able see other XSLT files. But this particular file is not visible.
I am copying following code only in sample.xslt file.
<xsl:stylesheet

<xsl:param name="pathToCSV" select="'file:///c:/csv.csv'" />
<xsl:function name="fn:getTokens" as="xs:string+">
    <xsl:param name="str" as="xs:string" />
    <xsl:analyze-string select="concat($str, ',')" regex='(("["]*")+|[,]*),'>
        <xsl:matching-substring>
        <xsl:sequence select='replace(regex-group(1), "^""|""$|("")""", "$1")' />
        </xsl:matching-substring>
    </xsl:analyze-string>
</xsl:function>
<xsl:template match="/" name="main">
    <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="unparsed-text-available($pathToCSV)">
        <xsl:variable name="csv" select="unparsed-text($pathToCSV)" />
        <xsl:variable name="lines" select="tokenize($csv, ' ')" as="xs:string+" />
        <xsl:variable name="elemNames" select="fn:getTokens($lines[1])" as="xs:string+" />
        <root>
        <xsl:for-each select="$lines[position() > 1]">
            <row>
            <xsl:variable name="lineItems" select="fn:getTokens(.)" as="xs:string+" />
            <xsl:for-each select="$elemNames">
                <xsl:variable name="pos" select="position()" />
                <elem name="{.}">
                <xsl:value-of select="$lineItems[$pos]" />
                </elem>
            </xsl:for-each>
            </row>
        </xsl:for-each>
        </root>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
        <xsl:text>Cannot locate : </xsl:text><xsl:value-of select="$pathToCSV" />
    </xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Is this correct?
