Import XML file into ABAP WD

Hi,
Is there any way to upload an XML file into ABAP WD?
I just saw a blog for Java WD.
<a href="/people/johann.marty/blog/2006/10/03/create-a-web-dynpro-tree-from-an-xml-file:///people/johann.marty/blog/2006/10/03/create-a-web-dynpro-tree-from-an-xml-file
Is there a similar facility in ABAP WD?
Regards,
Haresh.

hey u can do this by using CALL Transformation id.. command..
here is the example code where i wrote this to convert it DATA to XML format...it may help u..
DATA : BEGIN OF l_xml_tab OCCURS 0,
          a(100) TYPE c,
         END OF l_xml_tab.
DATA : xml_out TYPE string .
DATA : lw_xml_tab LIKE LINE OF l_xml_tab.
XML
CALL TRANSFORMATION id "('ID')
SOURCE tab = gt_outtab[]
RESULT XML xml_out.
Convert to TABLE
CALL FUNCTION 'HR_EFI_CONVERT_STRING_TO_TABLE'
    EXPORTING
      i_string         = xml_out
      i_tabline_length = 100
    TABLES
      et_table         = l_xml_tab.
OPEN DATASET p_lgfil1 FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
LOOP AT l_xml_tab INTO lw_xml_tab.
    TRANSFER lw_xml_tab TO p_lgfil1.
ENDLOOP.
CLOSE DATASET p_lgfil1.

Simple Transformation to deserialize an XML file into ABAP data structures?

I'm attempting to write my first simple transformation to deserialize
an XML file into ABAP data structures and I have a few questions.
My simple transformation contains code like the following
<tt:transform xmlns:tt="http://www.sap.com/transformation-templates"
              xmlns:pp="http://www.sap.com/abapxml/types/defined" >
<tt:type name="REPORT" line-type="?">
<tt:node name="COMPANY_ID" type="C" length="10" />
<tt:node name="JOB_ID" type="C" length="20" />
<tt:node name="TYPE_CSV" type="C" length="1" />
<tt:node name="TYPE_XLS" type="C" length="1" />
<tt:node name="TYPE_PDF" type="C" length="1" />
<tt:node name="IS_NEW" type="C" length="1" />
</tt:type>
<tt:root name="ROOT2" type="pp:REPORT" />
    <QueryResponse>
    <tt:loop ref="ROOT2" name="line">
      <QueryResponseRow>
        <CompanyID>
          <tt:value ref="$line.COMPANY_ID" />
        </CompanyID>
        <JobID>
          <tt:value ref="$line.JOB_ID" />
        </JobID>
        <ExportTypes>
          <tt:loop>
            <ExportType>
               I don't know what to do here (see item 3, below)
            </ExportType>
          </tt:loop>
        </ExportTypes>
        <IsNew>
          <tt:value ref="$line.IS_NEW"
          map="val(' ') = xml('false'), val('X') = xml('true')" />
        </IsNew>
      </QueryResponseRow>
      </tt:loop>
    </QueryResponse>
    </tt:loop>
1. In a DTD, an element can be designated as occurring zero or one
time, zero or more times, or one or more times. How do I write the
simple transformation to accommodate these possibilities?
2. In trying to accommodate the "zero or more times" case, I am trying
to use the <tt:loop> instruction. It occurs several layers deep in the
XML hierarchy, but at the top level of the ABAP table. The internal
table has a structure defined in the ABAP program, not in the data
dictionary. In the simple transformation, I used <tt:type> and
<tt:node> to define the structure of the internal table and then
tried to use <tt:loop ref="ROOT2" name="line"> around the subtree that
can occur zero or more times. But every variation I try seems to get
different errors. Can anyone supply a working example of this?
3. Among the fields in the internal table, I've defined three
one-character fields named TYPE_CSV, TYPE_XLS, and TYPE_PDF. In the
XML file, I expect zero to three elements of the form
<ExportType exporttype='csv' />
<ExportType exporttype='xls' />
<ExportType exporttype='pdf' />
I want to set field TYPE_CSV = 'X' if I find an ExportType element
with its exporttype attribute set to 'csv'. I want to set field
TYPE_XLS = 'X' if I find an ExportType element with its exporttype
attribute set to 'xls'. I want to set field TYPE_PDF = 'X' if I find
an ExportType element with its exporttype attribute set to 'pdf'. How
can I do that?
4. For an element that has a value like
<ErrorCode>123</ErrorCode>
in the simple transformation, the sequence
<ErrorCode> <tt:value ref="ROOT1.CODE" /> </ErrorCode>
seems to work just fine.
I have other situations where the XML reads
<IsNew value='true' />
I wanted to write
<IsNew>
        <tt:value ref="$line.IS_NEW"
        map="val(' ') = xml('false'), val('X') = xml('true')" />
       </IsNew>
but I'm afraid that the <tt:value> fails to deal with the fact that in
the XML file the value is being passed as the value of an attribute
(named "value"), rather than the value of the element itself. How do
you handle this?

Try this code below:
data l_xml_table2 type table of xml_line with header line.
W_filename - This is a Path.
if w_filename(02) = '
    open dataset w_filename for output in binary mode.
    if sy-subrc = 0.
      l_xml_table2[] = l_xml_table[].
      loop at l_xml_table2.
        transfer l_xml_table2 to w_filename.
      endloop.
    endif.
    close dataset w_filename.
else.
    call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download
      exporting
        bin_filesize = l_xml_size
        filename     = w_filename
        filetype     = 'BIN'
      changing
        data_tab     = l_xml_table
      exceptions
        others       = 24.
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
      message id sy-msgid type sy-msgty number sy-msgno
                 with sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

Import XML file into rpd file

Hi Gurus,
it seems to be very easy to import XML files into repos, but I could find suitable driver in my ODBC Data Source Administrator.
Could You help me?
Many thanks in advance!
Regards
Laszlo

you can't see view Data option for all types of sources... it depends on call interface and source you are using..
go and check the xml files and open them physically .. you'll see the data..

How to Import XML file into SAP B1

Dear All,
I have a scenario like,
I am receiving a XML file from a 3rd party application for the daily Creation,Update of Item Master,BP Master, Marketing Documents. I want to import this file into SAP B1 through its approp objects. I understand DTW has limitation in its file types (Semicolo,Tab,Comma,ODBC). How do i do this ? Please guide me.
Thanks,

Hy folks,
I´m frim Brasil and I've been studying the tool EFM (Eletronic File Manager) to learn more about it!
There I saw that we can extract to XML "any" infomation from the database we want, mainly through the GEP.
However, as I've seen, this Add-On can not import any XML file into SBO, unless for the BFP wich can be imported in conjunction with the BTHF Add-on.
So I ask: how is it possible to import XML data into SBO database? Is it possible to be done through the EFM? or it´s really necessary to write a code specifically to do that?
Besides, I know that de B1iSN fit to this necessity... but when I tried to use it, by the custom "object" for BP, for example, there are some data wich the mapping conteined in this custom "process" that can not be imported... I tried to understand how to map those other fields not imported by the custom but this has been dificult to me as I am a implementation consultant focused in administrative process not on development...
Could you please help me with this subject!
Thanks a lot,
Denis

Convert XML file into ABAP Query

Hi All,
Can we capture a XML file generated from a Non-SAP system in SAP system and convert into ABAP Query to retreive Data from DB and post it back as a XML query to the same Non-SAP system using a Middleware. Can this process be done in cache memory level itself instead of saving in DB.
If it is possible pls do tell the procedure and steps to be followed.
Suggestion and Help will be much Appreciated
Thanks & Regds.

Hello Sally,
First, I have only heard/read good things about the book Steve recommends. It is on my to buy list one day. Been awaiting a long deserved vaction to pick it up to read.
I approach XML files pretty much like I do any text file I am sent in that I will import or copy/paste a text file into a frame in ID and begin setting my styles. With XML, though, I first clean it up, move closing tags up to their logical close lines, remove spurious codes that mean something in HTML but don't necessarily belong in the XML file (like &#x2019 which is an apostrophe so I do a search and replace. But for   which is a non-breaking space I simply search and replace with a regular space in general), and make sure the XML validates.
Validation is much like making sure an HTML page is formed properly. I use an XML editor (XML BluePrint) and a text editor (UltraEdit) for these tasks. If I had to only have one or the other, I suppose the XML editor is what I would use.
I always show the import options when I import the XML and make sure that I link to the file.
So once a sample of the XML is on a page in ID (via File | Import XML), I highlight text within a tag, say like in your example above, the Providor name, and make it like I want and then create a new style. I generally name the styles as per the XML tag. Later on, that makes mapping tags to styles a little easier.
Once I set up all the styles preliminarily, I map the tags to styles. You can do that either via the Tags palette or via the Structure Pane that will appear once the XML is imported. In both cases, it is found via the flyout menu at the top right of their respective windows.
After mapping my styles to the tags, I select the root element in the Structure Pane (the topmost element. In your sample above it is "providors" and delete it. This removes the XML in your ID file. But the styles and tags are still present.
Then I import the XML again and look to makes sure all the tags/elements are styled as intended. I then correct any errors/ommissions. Then...I'll delete the XML again and import the full XML file.
I can upload what I did with your XML sample above so you can compare it to your source file if you would like. You would then see how/where I moved tags. Now, moving the tags is only "necessary" to avoid all the extra blank paragraphs. That can be accomplished by ID's search/replace, too. But I like to start out with the XML cleaned up, so I take the few minutes to do it.
Take care, Mike

Importing XML files into FCP 6

I recorded some footage using a Panasonic P2camera. I sent the files across to my media drive using fire wire but when I try to import the XML files from my media drive into FCP it tells me: *Please choose a translation document file*. Do I need a driver ? What am I doing wrong ?

There should be a text file along with the P2 media you recorded. That has to be transfered as well.

Import XML file into xml DB

I have the data into the xml files. To store these data, I thinked to create a XML DB.
I created a new schema, through the 'create schema' function.
I obtained a table for any element found into .xsd file.
I don't see the relations for these tables.
I thinked to import the data into this xml db from xml files.
How must I do?
It's possible to store the data with their relations?
Thanks in advance

I have made sure all my home settings are correct in my registry editor and they are. Another thing to note is the control file I am using works 100% perfectly, beautifully when called from Toad for Oracle. It is when called from the command line utility that it fails. Is there anyway to determine what the difference could be?
So we know that I can work (toad works), but it doesn't yet work in a "cmd" environment.
Just as any other program Toad is also a client and uses NLS and other environment settings. Maybe these are stored in the registry, maybe the are being set by Toad by reading a configuration file while it is started or while running.
As said, on Windows its tricky...
Setting properties in the registry will not mean that they are the same a "cmd" window or maybe not even been set.
If you execute / run "cmd" then the "set" statement/command will output the environment settings that will be used during the livetime of that "cmd" session.

...In the registry you can find a lot of those variables are set for ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_BASE, SQLPATH, maybe TNS_ADMIN, ORACLE_SID, NLS_LANG. You can find the variables IN the registry on two places. The most common one is the SYSTEM wide environment settings under //HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE and in my case for 11.2 under //HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE/KEY_OraDb11g_Home1.
You could overrule this for to be active on "my user session", my login session as account "marco" under //HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Oracle, but no one using Windows is doing this.
Besides the "cmd" and registry environment, there is a different place as well were you can set these parameters. In windows go to "start", click "control panel", click "system", click tab "Advanced" and then click on the button on the bottum with "Environment Variables". Here you can see the distinction between user and system wide variables as well. Here you can also set NLS_LANG, ORACLE_HOME etc. If I am not mistaken than these will be the default values used in a fresh "cmd" window session. But they can and will interfere with programs you start via clicking them. For example something a Java program like SQL Developer (and/or Toad). If those values are not overrulled by the program by for example using his own variables from a config file or else, those sessings from the "system" / control panel item will be used. If it is the wrong mix, you will encounter strange issues.
Setting ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_BASE will be used by a lot of derived other settings for example the default place SQL*Net drivers and tnsnames aliases etc will be checked. For example setting the ORACLE_HOME to
C:\> set ORACLE_HOME=C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1will result in that the tnsnames aliases from
C:\> set ORACLE_HOME=C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\NETWORK\adminwill be used and NOT the ones maybe needed from
C:\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\NETWORK\adminYou can overrule this behavior by setting the TNS_ADMIN variable. By default, most explicit form for example on linux and Unix, the following rule will be used by Oracle
1) .tnsnames.ora in the home directory of the user
2) standard default: $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
3) behavior can be overruled via setting $TNS_ADMINThe fact that you are able via Toad to execute it correctly proves you that it can be done. But Toad uses in your session "SQL*Net" or JDBC or ODBC or ADO or ? via its own configuration environment settings that are being set on which values...?
Both Oracle and Toad use the OSI model (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model), both have to follow the same rules. There hasn't been changed that much over the years, character set conversions are done in the "two task common" layer of the data transport on either side (client/server) when data travels between a client and server. And don't forget a database can be also be a client when for instance database links are being used. One of the reasons to read old manuals because there the basics are still perfectly explained: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/A57673_01/DOC/net/doc/NWUS233/ch2.htm#twotask (Oracle 7.3.4 Networking Manual).
This long long story is just to show you that you have more control if you set variables explicitly in a "cmd" window (and or in a linux/unix shell (as long as the session isn't "forked")) BUT you will have to be precise. Check the environment a set those environment variables that control / that are being used by "sqlldr" (and that are probably more then you realised, for example that SQL_PATH variable is the default directory where SQL*Plus is looking and saving its "SQL" and spool "LIS" files).

Has Oracle any facility to import XML files into DB?

Thanks in advance

Yes it is possible. But never tried.
Could you please go here.

How to upload XML file into the internal table in Webdynpro ABAP ?

Hi Friends,
I am not able to upload the XML file into ABAP,can you please help me in solving this issue with the help of source code.
Regards
Dinesh

Hi Dinesh,
Try go through this program which I had developed earlier. It takes as input an XML file and then breaks it down into name-value pairs of an intrnal table. You need to pass an XML file as input to this program. (I had hard coded the path for my XML file in it. You need to replace it with 1 of your own or you can just delete it and use the browse button to selet the file on your PC)
Regards,
Uday

CANNOT IMPORT FCP .XML FILE INTO PREMIERE PRO CS5

Hi,
Camera used:-Sony Pmw Ex3
Footage       :- XDCAM sp(1440 * 1080i) PAL
Edited in      :-final cut pro 7
Error            :- failed to import .xml file into premiere pro cs5
I tried to import the .xml file into premiere CS5 ,it asked for the media files to relink .whn i linked the .mp4 files it showed the error messege "The selected file cannot be linked becouse it has 2 audio channel(s) and the clip was created with 1 audio channel(s).
then i tried to relink the .mov instead of .mp4 file (which i used in final cut pro on apple machine)i got the error "Codec missing or unavailable"
what should i do???..i almost done all the editing in final cut pro and i bought the adobe coz i thought i can finish all the pending FCP projects in Premier Pro..??

What is the CODEC in your MOV file(s)? MOV is but a "wrapper," like AVI. This ARTICLE will give you some background. It could be that you just need the proper CODEC, or it could be that it is a Mac-only CODEC, and then you will need for the producer to Export in another CODEC, that is PC-compatible.
This ARTICLE will give you some background on CODEC's, in general.
Good luck,

Store/persist XML file on ABAP stack

Hi everybody,
as the ABAP Database is a relational DB, I wonder where to store a XML file. Is there a dedicated table?
Thanks

hi
try with this function module SMUM_XML_PARSE for parsing xml document into a table structure
also check this document for how an abap prog take xml and convert into an abap internal table
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f50dcd4e-0501-0010-3596-b686a7b51492

Use XSU to store in multiple tables.
"XSU can only store data in a single table. You can store XML across tables, however, by using the Oracle XSLT processor to transform a document into multiple documents and inserting them separately. You can also define views over multiple tables and perform insertions into the views. If a view is non-updatable (because of complex joins), then you can use INSTEAD OF triggers over the views to perform the inserts."
