Built in XMl Parser for 11g Exp Edi

Hi
I am new to using 11g express edition. I have not used before any express editions.
I would like to use the Xpress edition for parsing an XML file of 3MB size and put it in the relational table(approximaletly 5 tables).
Appreciate if this a possibility with express edition.
Thanks

Hi,
XML-support is avaliable in XE. You can use the compelte XML API, e.g. DBMS_XMLPARSER (part of XDB, if I'm not mixing this up), as documented [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e16760/d_xmlpar.htm#ARPLS375]here.

  • XML parser for commercial application.

    J2ME doesn't have a built in XML parser, which is actually pretty surprising. I know several J2ME compatible parsers exist like kXML and Xparse, but they are both licensed under the GNU Public License. In using these, doesn't that mean the entire project has to be "open source" to honor the license? This doesn't seem to be a good idea for a commercial product, so can anyone recommend any other way to parse XML?
    Thanks

    How can we parse a XML file without giving the tagname(Element name for checking)?........

  • Custom xml parser for EAR

    I am trying to specify a custom XML parser for my application to use as the default BEA one does not work with Apache Axis.
    I added the following to my weblogic-application.xml file:
    <xml>
    <parser-factory>
    <saxparser-factory>org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl</saxparser-factory>
    <document-builder-factory>org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl</document-builder-factory>
    <transformer-factory>org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl</transformer-factory>
    </parser-factory>
    </xml>
    I also updated the Manifest file for my EAR to include the following:
    Class-Path: APP-INF/lib/xercesImpl.jar;APP-INF/lib/xml-apis.jar
    This is not working. Any ideas?

    Our command line ones will print the output of the parse to the

    our samples to see how to do it.

    Not unless you use our print methods or pipe our commandline

    All of our XML Parsers for C, C++, and Java can work
    independenmt of the database. However, only the Java version is
    currently configured to work with the XML SQL Utility (also
    available here) to get parsed data in and out of the database.
    Download it and take a look.

    Was it definitely xmlparsev2.jar that you had to load?
    I recently started going through some of these examples as well and found that the standard xml parser was there but that I needed to load the xml parser for PL/SQL. I did this using loadjava from a subdirectory within the xdk directory and everything worked fine.

  • ORACLE XML PARSER FOR JAVA FOR AIX

    Hi people!
    I'm looking for the Oracle XML Parser for Java 9.0.2.0.0C, my 9iAS is BI Installation 9.0.2.3, where can I get it? In the Downloads Section there is only the version for 10g, and the existing versions for 9i are not for AIX (my OS is AIX 5.2L).
    Thanks.

    Thanks for your help, I navigate through this link and, even it shows a table where appears the release for AIX (9.2.0.6.0), when I get to http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/xml/xdk/software/prod/utilsoft_java.htm
    it shows me only downloads for Sun, Linux and HP-UX, but not for AIX.
    Has the version for AIX being deprecated or something like that?

  • XML parsing problems with Oracle XML parser for PL/SQL

    I am using the Oracle XML parser for PL/SQL to transform XML into HTML usign XSL. The parser gives me sporadic errors trying to parse various XML documents. For the same XML source, the XMLPARSER will parse without errors one day and the next day will give me errors such as "invalid char in text", "Expected ';'.", or even Java null pointer exceptions.
    I have verified that the XML sources are well formed, so I am pretty certain that the problems I am having are bugs in the XMLPARSER.
    Is there going to be a XML parser for PL/SQL version 2 that will fix these bugs? If so, when??? If not, is there anything else I could do to fix these problems?
    Thanks!

    You can use the latest version.

  • 2-byte error in XML Parser for PL/SQL

    environment:
    oracle 8.1.5
    XML parser for Java 2.0.2.6.0
    XML parser for PL/SQL 1.0.1.0.0
    we use CLOB as xml data container, but it does not work properly with 2 byte chracter set.
    I tested same situation except using VARCHAR2 instead of CLOB, it works without problem.
    I think there is some bug in method parseClob of oracle.xml.parser.plsql.XMLParserCover about converting CLOB into String.
    I appreciate any help to work around this problem.

  • XML-Parser for PL/SQL: OutOfMemoryError

    When using the XML-Parser for transforming an

    following error:
    ORA-29516: Aurora assertion failure: Assertion failure at eox.c:187
    Uncaught exception System error: java/lang/OutOfMemoryError
    ORA-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 25509408 bytes (joxcx

    The operation nevertheless seems to finish correctly. I run Oracle 8.1.6 under WinNT4
    (384MB RAM) with a shared_pool_size of about
    30MB and a java_pool_size of 40MB.
    The original document is stored in a CLOB,
    so I use xmlparser.parseClob to get it.
    After the parsing is finished, the result is written to a file using xmldom.writeToFile.
    Can anybody point me in the right direction?
    Many thanks in advance!

    I need to have further information about some of the following

    1) Is there a maximum size for an XML document to provide data

    2) How about from Oracle to an XML document ?
    3) Is there a ratio between XML document size and main memory and

    4) Can the Oracle Application Server run on a DHCP NT server when
    using XML parsing ? Is it NT Service Pack 3 and 4 compatible ?
    5) How parsers can interact with one another or related tools ?
    For example, how the XML parser for c/c++ could be useful when
    using Pro*C/C++ (programmer 2000) or OCI interfaces ? In other

    Not really sure of your question. The XML components are useful
    in any application where I am processing documents or data with
    an XML structure. The choice to use XML can be based on quite a
    range of requirements due to its declarative syntax and open
    standards. If you give me a specific application, I can perhaps
    be more helpful.

  • XML Parser for PL/SQL - charset

    Hi,
    I'm using XML Parser for PL/SQL and have some trouble with encoding of results xmldom.writeToBuffer and xmldom.writeToCLOB procedures.
    Some tags in my DOM documents contain text values in RUSSIAN (server nls_charset is CL8ISO8859P5). When I write document in varchar2 variable, buffer content is in UTF8 encoding ( convert UTF8->CL8ISO8859P5 -OK).
    xmldom.setCharset(doc, 'ISO-8859-5') just after xmldom.newDOMDocument has no effect.
    xmldom.setCharset(doc, 'CL8ISO8859P5') has no effect also.
    Explicit charset direction in third parameter of
    xmldom.writeToBuffer and xmldom.writeToCLOB procedure has no effect.
    When I write document in CLOB, and then read part of CLOB in varchar2 buffer - result contain '?' in place of all russian text characters.
    What's a problem?
    How can I force XML Parser write XML in server charset?
    Platform:
    Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.6.1.0
    JServer Release 8.1.6.1.0
    Oracle XML Parser for PL/SQL v 1.0.2

    I have the same problem. But in my case I am allowed only to use XML Parser for PL/SQL.
    Characterset 'WE8ISO8859P1' is used. And the language is latvian.
    After parsing a XML document and printing its contents, all latvian characters are replaced by "f".
    xmldom.setcharset(doc,'WE8ISO8859P1') has no effect.
