How can (parse) i use XML file with missing EndTag

hi,
i have an application which writes an "XML file".
another application should read that XML file, build an DOM and
access the nodes with xpath.
my problem. if the first application is not finished there are tags
missing. e.g. </xml>. but the seconds application cannot wait until the first application finishes it task.
if i now read the XML file the parser cannot load it because the end tags are missing.
my question:
how can i deactivate the check or how can i read the XML file and access it via XPath (my application is using at the moment XPath to access the nodes and i dont want to change that)
as parser i am using XERCES

As far as I know, you can't do this - xml must be well formed (this is sort of a bedrock of xml). There may be some work around's, but I'm not aware of any - and they would most likely be hacks.

How can I save a XML file with JAXP1.1?

Dear All.
I write a program to create XML file with DOM model, but I can't know how to save it? My environment is JAXP1.1 and JDK1.3.1,I has been required not use other XML parser toolkits,only JAXP1.1.
How can I do? thank you.
Many person give me a idea the com.sun.xml.tree.XmlDocument, but I can't find the class in API document or JAXP1.1's packages. why?
what is it? How can i use it?
thank you very much.

The way to save an XML Document is using a Transformer.
To have access to a transformer use the packages :
import javax.xml.transform.*;
import javax.xml.transform.dom.*;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.*;
Then for saving your Document Object (named dXml) get a Transformer Object with the TransformerFactory Object :
TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer t = tf.newTransformer();
Now you have got your Transformer Object, to save your Document Object use the method :
Document dXml = getMyDocument(); // this is your Document Object.
OutputStream osSave = getMySaveStream(); // this the OutputStream you need to save your Document.
try
t.transform(new DomSource(dXml), new StreamResult(new OutputStreamWriter(osSave)));
finally
osSave.close();
And your Document was now saved.

How can I pass a xml file to the webservice?

Hello friends,
How can I pass the XML file to any webservice API ?
I have all the inputs of API in to the XML file.
Please note:- I don't intend to do any .NET or Java coding to populate the data in the objects .Instead I plan to input the data to the webservice direcly from the XML file required schema.
If necessary I can use Oracle Bpel process manager for it.
Thanks and regards

How can I automatically create the files with serie-name?

Hello, Everyone,
I have a question again.
How can I automatically create the file with a serie-filename?
e.g. I have a program, it will repeat 5 times, and every time it will create a bmp-file, and I want to let this program automatically save these 5 files with a Serie-filename like File001.bmp, File002.bmp, .... File005.bmp.
How can I do it?`
Thanks a lot.

How to parse the following xml file

Hi
I have an xml file with the following data
Example.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<html><set label="09/07/29" value="1241.90"/>
</html>
How do i retrive the values of the attributes
Example i want the label value 09/07/29
and 1241.90 to be inserted into some temp table.
Appreciate if any one can provide me the solution.
Thanks,

it's more an XQuery question than DB XML one.
Anyway, you can use the following queries to get attributes values:
doc(<your_doc>)/html/set/@label
doc(<your_doc>)/html/set/@valueYou can retrieve both values in a single query, but for this please refer to the XQuery specification.
Or read: [http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/xml/gsg_xml/java/xquery.html#xqueryintro]
Best,

How do I Ftp a XML file with out namespace attribute

Hi All,
How do I FTP an xml file that is validated against a schema on the ftp adapter with out the namespace attribute being added to the first and second element of the XML file.
For example the xml looks like this when I transfer the file.
<XML_Event xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/PlannedEventSTORMRequestProcess/STORM">
<Event_Begin xmlns="">
<XML_File_Header>
<Originating_System>xxx</Originating_System>
<ID>387</ID>
</XML_File_Header>
</Event_Begin>
</XML_Event>
However I want it to be….
<XML_Event>
<Event_Begin>
<XML_File_Header>
<Originating_System>xxx</Originating_System>
<ID>387</ID>
</XML_File_Header>
</Event_Begin>
</XML_Event>
How do i achieve this using the ftp adapter.
Cheers

Here is an example that will try to reach the given size in steps of 4 in quality.
var saveFile = File(Folder.desktop + "/test");
var fileSize = 70;
try{
tmpFile = File(saveFile+".jpg");
for(var z =100;z>5;z -=4){
SaveForWeb(tmpFile,z);
var chkFile = File(saveFile+".jpg");
//$.writeln(tmpFile + " qual = " + z + " Size = " +(chkFile.length/1024).toFixed(2) + "k" );
if((chkFile.length/1024).toFixed(2) < (fileSize +1)) break;
tmpFile.remove();
if(!tmpFile.exists) SaveForWeb(tmpFile,5);
}catch(e){$.writeln(e + " - " + e.line);}
function SaveForWeb(saveFile,jpegQuality) {
var sfwOptions = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb();
   sfwOptions.format = SaveDocumentType.JPEG;
   sfwOptions.includeProfile = false;
   sfwOptions.interlaced = 0;
   sfwOptions.optimized = true;
   sfwOptions.quality = Number(jpegQuality);
activeDocument.exportDocument(saveFile, ExportType.SAVEFORWEB, sfwOptions);

Loading XML file with missing elements dynamically through ODI

Hi Guys ,
I have the below xml file with two nodes Employee and Address. On a daily basis , sometimes the address element might not come in from the source xml file , but my interface has columns mapped to address elements, and hence it can fail due to the source element not being found in the file or data might not get loaded due to the 'and' condition in the sql query generated between the employee and address elements. Is there a way where i can load the data dynamically where i can search in the file only for the elements (Employee) present and load data only for those elements dynamically?
XML File:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EMP>
<Empsch>
<Employee>
<EmployeeID>12345</EmployeeID>
<Initials>t</Initials>
<LastName>john</LastName>
<FirstName>doe</FirstName>
</Employee>
<Address>
<WorkPhone>12345</WorkPhone>
<WorkAddress>Test 234</WorkAddress>
</Address>
</Empsch>
</EMP>
Thanks ,

It contains a TextNode and its value is " " and a "\n".
I used setIgnoringElementContentWhitespace feature, but it seems didn't work.

How can I transfer a XML file content to a MS SQL database by stored procedure using LabWindows/CVI SQL Toolkit?

Hi,
I have a problem to transfer a XML file content to a MS SQL database by a given/fixed stored procedure. I'm able to transfer the content of the file by using following method ...
hstmt = DBPrepareSQL (hdbc, EXEC usp_InsertReport '<Report> ..... </Report>');
resCode = DBExecutePreparedSQL (hstmt);
resCode = DBClosePreparedSQL (hstmt);
... but in this case I'm not able to fetch the return value of the stored procedure!
I have tried to follow the example of the stored procedure in the help documentation (DBPrepareSQL) but I miss a datatype for xml?!?
Any idea how to solve my problem?
KR Cake
Solved!
Go to Solution.

After some additional trials I found a solution by calling the stored procedure in this way
DBSetAttributeDefault (hdbc, ATTR_DB_COMMAND_TYPE, DB_COMMAND_STORED_PROC);
DBPrepareSQL (hdbc, "usp_InsertReport");
DBCreateParamInt (hstmt, "", DB_PARAM_RETURN_VALUE, -1);
DBCreateParamChar (hstmt, "XMLCONTENT", DB_PARAM_INPUT, sz_Buffer, (int) strlen(sz_Buffer) + 1 );
DBExecutePreparedSQL (hstmt);
DBClosePreparedSQL (hstmt);
DBGetParamInt (hstmt, 1, &s32_TestId);
where sz_Buffer is my xml file content and s32_TestID the return value of the stored procdure (usp_InsertReport(@XMLCONTENT XML))
Now I face the problem, that DBCreateParamChar limits the buffer size to 8000 Bytes.
Any idea to by-pass this shortage??

How can i generate session.xml file?

hello
i am a beginner of toplink,i find that in my project,i must provide two xml format files,they are "session.xml" and a project xml file,to make the toplink works well,the project descriptor can be generated by using the mapping workbench,but how can i generate the "session.xml",now,what i can do is to modify the sample file that come with the toplink installation,i wonder if there is a graphic tool that can be used to generate it?
thanks for any helps!

Currently there is no UI support for creating or modifying sessions.xml. The DTD is provided in both the documentation as well as in the installed files (<TOPLINK_HOME>\core\sessions_4_5.dtd). The examples should also contain a variety of sessions.xml file to assist you.
