Business Intelligent and Analysis capabilities on XML content

On page 99 of Oracle XML DB Basic Demonstration pdf doc it si said: "Even though Business Intelligence, such as rollup and cube, are not XML aware they are able to process XML content exposed through a relational view"
is this true ? if so, how can i create a cube and/or
dimension from XML content exposed through a relational view ?
Unfortunately, Oracle 9i does not allow me to build materialzed views from XML content (Oracle objects)
Thanks in advance,

Thanks for your reply,
The problem is that Oracle 9i, as far as i know, cannot build materialized views from XML data. The only thing i've been able to achieve are simple relational views and indexes.
So, is it possible to build DW structures (cubes, dimensions,hierarchies, etc) using Oracle 9i from standard views instead of tables ? I believe not (or at least i haven't been able to)
Thanks again

The intention of the documentation maybe that anything you can query using SQL, you can expose as XML. For instance, you could create an analytic workspace, expose it through views, query the views through SQL, and return the results as XML.

Oracle Service Bus business service - How to disable XML content check.

Hi All,
Dear Experts I have the necessity to disable the check on the XML content when message is forwarded to external system by on Oracle Service Bus Business Service to avoid that the XML content as string that I inserted in message is wrapped with the CDATA[[.
Thanks a lot,
Mike

There is no explicit option to disable the check on the XML content.
But the you can use Messaging Service of type Text request which will consider the data as string and so there will be no check.
If you want to use WSDL/AnyXML/AnySOAP proxies, the XML check is always carried when the $body varaible is not checked/modified when content streaming is enabled while creating the proxy. I'm quite sure HTTP transport supports content streaming and the stream from the input is directly given to BS with out realizing the XML. Only short coming is it should be a pure pass through and no data enrichment and any action in pipeline that requires realizing the XML from the stream.
Let me know if this helps.
Thanks

How to delete xml content without deleting the content of the object?

Hey, with the following code I am marking up a page item and deleting it's xml content:
text_value = text_area.xmlElements.add('text', current)
text_value.contents = '';
current is the current app.selection. The code works, with one downside: It also deletes the content of my text frame in my document. I only want to delete the xml content. Is this somehow possible?
Thanks in advance!!
Regards
Fred

Dear Fred,
Please use the below Code, this will helps you to achieve your target.

Import of XML file failed in portal using XML Content and Action

Hi Friends,
I am trying to import the simple XML file which is just creating the folder in the PORTAL_CONTENT using XML CONTENT AND ACTIONS which is one way of creating the portal content. GO TO SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION > TRANSPORT > XML CONTENT AND ACTIONS > IMPORT.
The reason for using this import tool is to upload the backend Business roles, which is not not working on our corporate portal. To test the import functionality I used the following xml file (I got this XML file by exporting the test folder in the portal using the same tool)

Pass parameter through standard page "import xml content and actions"

Dear Portal experts,
As you know, a standard portal page is configured to allow the import of XML file. It is located in the portal in the path system admin -> transport -> xml content and actions -> import
I configured a quick link u201Cimportu201D to the page so now the link http://myserver:port/irj/portal/import allows me to access directly to this screen.
What I would like to do now is to pass the parameter related to u201Cfile nameu201D through this screen meaning that I would like that http://myserver:port/irj/portal/ import/filename=C:\test.xml fills automatically the fields u201CXML fileu201D with C:\test.xml
Please do you know how to achieve this ?
Thank you very much and regards

hi,
@Maksim :
When user launch an URL like http://myserver:port/irj/portal/ import/*filename=C:\test.xml, he is requested to provide username and password; as this link is a shortcut for the upload xml page, there is a check of authorization and only portal admin that have authorization and permission on this page/iview will be able to upload xml file through the URL. Hope this clarify.
@Kumar :
thank you for your answer. What a pity to not be able to pass parameter through standard portal page/iview particularly knowing that we can pass paramater through many kinds of iviews (transactional iview, url iview, VC iview...). I explored some option on file com.sap.portal.ivs.init.par but this was unsuccessful. However, thanks to this [link bellow|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/ComponenttouploadXMLfilewithPCD+objects], I was able to upload through URL the XML file.
The problem is that I can upload only XML file that are stored in the server not in the local user computer. My requirement is to be able to upload local XML file stored on user's computer.
If someone could provide and idea/solution, I would be very grateful.

Print Specific Frames and Dynamic XML content

Hello, I am trying to print specific frames of my Flash movie
with the dynamic text loaded from an XML file. The code below only
prints the current frame I am on and does not print the XML text.
The dataOK that is commented out is a function I have before that
loads the XML content. The XML content is loaded to dynamic text
boxes. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

I am still having difficulty loading the XML data and the
frameNum parameter does not seem to work. Argghhhh....
function printTut(myevent:MouseEvent):void{
var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
var printArea:Rectangle = null;
var options:PrintJobOptions = null;
var frameNum:int = 2;
mySprite.addChild(stage);
mySprite.rotation=90;
mySprite.scaleY=.80;
mySprite.scaleX=.80;
myPrintJob.start();
myPrintJob.addPage(mySprite,printArea,options,frameNum);
myPrintJob.send();
print_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,printTut);

Query on SAP Business Object and Content shipment..

I know about SAP Business Suite... & SAP Business One... But what is :
1. SAP Business Object and
2. Content Shipment
The definitions on the SAP Release & Maintenance Strategy and other docs on SDN were not too clear for my understanding. I want to know why are they used / where are they applied ? E.g: if you have a SAP BW system.. why would you need SAP BW Content ? where does it fit in the picture and what purpose does it serve...
(PS: it would be great if someone can share the product / functionality details of their landscape where these systems are used, how does it benefit the business operations and any other purpose of having them... )
Thanks,

Hi Ashim,
If your client want it to be done in one database, then the answer is no if you do not have any add-on or SDK codes. Most difficult part is authorization since I believe what you mean project here is not the same as project center in B1,
If your client allow more than one database, then the configuration will be easy.
Thanks,
Gordon

Planning ,Business rules and Reporting Analysis Backup

Hi
Currently we have migrated our Hyperion Planning EPMA 11.1.1.2 applications from TEST to PROD on windows 2003 Server (2 boxes).Essbase Server on UNIX and Application Server is OAS.We need to take backups on daily basis for Hyperion planning, BR's ,Reporting Analysis , Financial Reporting and Essbase , Open LDAP.
But now We are taking only backups for Essbase and Open LDAP by using maxl script and Backup.bat file (Scheduled in Windows Scheduler)
As per the documentation we are going to take the backups for the Hyperion planning, BR's ,Reporting Analysis , Financial Reporting also.
Our concerns are
1)Is there any BAT files for planning , BR'S and Reporting like open LDAP Backup.BAT
2) If doesn't have how can we move ?(not manually, Using Windows Scheduler)
3) Is there any necessity to create new Batch scripts for this action?
Could you please any one help me out.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
There are no other batch scripts I am aware of, you will have to create any new ones.
In regards to backing up with business rules and planning, that would be mainly be backing up the repository.
You can also use LCM to export your objects and this can be called from command line.

How to read XML content from IPortalComponentRequest and parse them

Hi ,
I have a portal application.The application has 2 components(Comp1,comp2).
Comp1 is JspDynpage and Comp2 is AbstractPortalComponent.
Comp1- has a iframe element which point to the external url and has a parameter return_url.
retrun_url has a value as url to Comp2(http://ibm0343:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/NewUrlProj.NewUrlComp)
When an event occurs in the external site,i suppose to receive XML content in return_url(ie Comp2),how can i check using the request if the received content is XML and how do i parse them.
I have already seen blogs from Prakash singh in which it refers a xml fixed location in webserver.

Hi Detlev,
i am reposting this once again as the previous
reply didnt align good.
Thanks for your reply.The scenario is that
My portal application has to communicate with external GIS(Graphical information system)
service provider client application.
They say that i have to use iframe in my portal application.
Here is the snipet of the iframe tags.
<iframe
id="Nedbrowser"
name="Nedbrowser"
width="100%"
height="100%"
frameborder="no"
marginheight="0"
marginwidth="0"
scrolling="no"
style="position:absolute; top:0; left:0; width:800; height:400; z-index:100; visibility:visible"

result_url=http://ibm0343:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/NewUrlProj.NewUrlComp&
default_centre_x=256000&default_centre_y=471000&default_width=0.5">
</iframe>
<iframe

scrolling="no"
style="position:absolute; top:400; left:0; width:800; height:200; z-index:100; visibility:visible"
src="about:blank">
</iframe>
When my portal application is started, comes the GIS map in the iframe with in my portal application.
When the user clicks in the area of the map,Gis application returns xml data to the return_url.
The reurn_url is my PortalAbstractComponent in which i have to parse the xml and use it for further processing in R3 system.

Adding version and stylesheet href to an XML content

Hi there guys!
I am new working with XML in Oracle 9i, so I would appreciate your tips. My problem is that I need to store a XML document into a variable, which must include the "version" and "stylesheet href" lines on its body.
For example, if I use the following sample query:
    SELECT XMLCONCAT(
        XMLELEMENT("TraspasoSaldo",
            SELECT
                XMLELEMENT("Encabezado",
                    XMLELEMENT("Valor1", 'Valor1'),
                    XMLELEMENT("Valor2", 'Valor2')
                ) As "Encabezado"
            FROM Dual
            SELECT
                XMLELEMENT("Detalle",
                    XMLELEMENT("Valor1", 'Valor1'),
                    XMLELEMENT("Valor2", 'Valor2')
                ) As "Detalle"
            FROM Dual
    ).getclobval()
    INTO
        XMLCONTENTDATA    --> Declared as: XMLCONTENTDATA CLOB := EMPTY_CLOB;
    FROM Dual
    ;Above query saves the following XML content in the XMLCONTENTDATA variable, which is correct:
<TraspasoSaldo>
    <Encabezado>
      <Valor1>Valor1</Valor1>
      <Valor2>Valor2</Valor2>
    </Encabezado>
    <Detalle>
      <Valor1>Valor1</Valor1>
      <Valor2>Valor2</Valor2>
    </Detalle>
</TraspasoSaldo>But, I need to add next 2 lines to this XML document:
<?xml version = ''1.0''?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="../xsl_path/My_StyleSheet.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>I have tried many things without success, because the XML content always looses its properties and structure. For example, trying to avoid this problem, I have tried to concatenate these 2 lines using the following trick:
    x := '<?xml version = ''1.0''?>' || CHR(13) || CHR(10);
    len := length(x);
    dbms_lob.writeappend(HEADCLOB, len, x);
    x := '<?xml-stylesheet href="../xsl_path/My_StyleSheet.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>' || CHR(13) || CHR(10);
    len := length(x);
    dbms_lob.writeappend(HEADCLOB, len, x);
    dbms_lob.append(HEADCLOB, XMLCONTENTDATA);
    XMLCONTENTDATA := HEADCLOB;But at the end I just received a text file, instead of a XML document:
<?xmlversion=''1.0''?>
<?xml-stylesheethref="../xsl_path/My_StyleSheet.xsl"type="text/xsl"?>
<TraspasoSaldo><Encabezado><Valor1>Valor1</Valor1><Valor2>Valor2</Valor2></Encabezado><Detalle><Valor1>Valor1</Valor1><Valor2>Valor2</Valor2></Detalle></TraspasoSaldo>As you can see above, the XML structure is lost, so the content of the XMLCONTENTDATA variable is not an XML anymore.
Any tips or ideas?
Thanks very much in advance for any help on this issue!!
PS: It is required to save this XML content into a variable in order to pass its value to a program.
Best regards,
Francisco

As you can see above, the XML structure is lost, so the content of the XMLCONTENTDATA variable is not an XML anymore.The structure (i.e. format) is absolutely of no importance for a xml file.
What you have shown when concatenating the two parts still make a valid xml !!
Nevertheless you can also always do sth like
SQL> with t as (
select dbms_xmlgen.getxmltype('select * from dept where rownum =1') xml from dual
--   generate some sample xml
select xmltype('<?xml version = ''1.0''?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="../xsl_path/My_StyleSheet.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>' || xml) xml from t
XML
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="../xsl_path/My_StyleSheet.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
    <DEPTNO>10</DEPTNO>
    <DNAME>ACCOUNTING</DNAME>
    <LOC>NEW YORK</LOC>
</ROW>

Issues with XML Content and Actions to import RRA in FPN (EP7 SPS13)

Hi,
I am having trouble using the import functionality of XML Content and Actions to transport Remote Role Assignments between Consumer Portals. Whenever I want to upload an XML file containing RRA for Roles and Groups that were already assigned to eachother, the import fails and nothing is updated. The error I get:

Anyone with experience in how to use this?

Business Intelligence and performance point problem

Hi Everyone,
Please does anyone know why creating a dashboard from a Sharepoint list is such a hassle. I have configured performance point services, a secure store and a business intelligent website that has a data connection library and Performance Point content
list . Unfortunately anytime I try to use dashboard designer to create a new data source and specify the site settings(using unattended account method) I can't save it. It gives me an error claiming that I either don't have permissions or the data source
doesn't exist.
A search around the web for answers doesn't seems to solve my problem as it suggests that the problem is associate with many things which I'm not clear about. Please could someone who is good at this at least tell me the critical things to check and the
clearest way to set this up.
Thanks,
Dominic

Hi Dominic,
According to your error " I either don't have permissions or the data source doesn't exist", it should be related to the unattended account permission.
Once the unattended service account has been configured, you must grant that account access to your data sources:
For SQL Server data, the account must have a SQL logon with db_datareader permissions on each database that you want to access.
For SQL Server Analysis Services data, the account must have read access to the cube or an appropriate portion of the cube, depending on your needs.
For Excel Services data, the account must have access to the Excel workbook in a SharePoint document library.
For data in a SharePoint list, the account must have read access to the list.

As you can see, this isn't well formed and when I try to process this via XSLT I run into all kinds of problems. So outside of writting a program to watch for files, picking them up with a c# program, wrapping the XML to make it well formed then pass
it to the XSLT file, is there a way that I can wrap the file using XSLT instead of having to create a separate program to make it well formed? Any help is appreciated.

Hello katghoti,
>>however the XML isn't well formed. Really it isn't even XML it is just a formatted text file
Firstly, we should know that a text file actually does not know a XML format, so I suggest that you could save the text file to a XML file. And if you provided XML is the whole content, it is not an invalid XML file because the XML document must have one
and only one root element. You have to add root element, so a valid XML file with these SampleSet elements should be similar with below:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<SampleSets>
<SampleSet Label="Sample Set">
<Name Label="Name" Value="CQS6" />
<AnalysisDate Label="Analysis Date" Value="3/13/2015 12:20 PM" />
<CarbonAvg Label="Carbon Avg." Value="116 ppm" />
</SampleSet>
<SampleSet Label="Sample Set">
<Name Label="Name" Value="CQS6" />
<AnalysisDate Label="Analysis Date" Value="3/13/2015 12:33 PM" />
<CarbonAvg Label="Carbon Avg." Value="123 ppm" />
</SampleSet>

I am not sure how you want the XML be formatted, my usual approach to format a XML file is to open the file in Visual Studio and use ctrl K+D keyboard shortcuts to format the XML file.
>>is there a way that I can wrap the file using XSLT instead of having to create a separate program to make it well formed?
XSLT is used to process XML file, while you provided file is a text file, it does not recognize it.
If I misunderstand, please feel free to let me know.
