Carriage return symbol is removed from XML

Hello,
It looks like SQL Server removes \r characters when parsing XML. So when my stored procedure receives values in xml for saving, all line breaks are represented as \n instead of \r\n.
Is there any way I can force SQL Server not to remove \r characters? In the sample below Node1 value doesn't contain \r symbols.
DECLARE @hDoc int
DECLARE @Xml nvarchar(MAX)
SET @Xml = N'<Root><Node1><![CDATA[' + nchar(13) + nchar(10) + N'Some ' + nchar(13) + nchar(10) + N' Value]]></Node1></Root>'
EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @hDoc OUTPUT, @Xml
SELECT
Node1
,convert(varbinary(max),Node1) -- Contains 0A00 in the start instead of 0D0A,
,charindex(nchar(13),Node1)
FROM
OPENXML(@hDoc, N'/Root', 2) WITH (Node1 NVARCHAR(MAX))
EXEC sp_xml_removedocument @hDoc
Thank you

Hi dalong,
The scenario you pointed is the behavior of the XML processor by default. If any characters with CARRIAGE RETURN (#xD), whenever CARRIAGE RETURN (#xD) is followed by LINE FEED (#xA) or not, will be translate to a single #xA character, to normalize all line
breaks in external parsed entities on input before parsing.
In this case, you may have a try to make use of REPLACE function in the SELECT statement to replace “nchar(10)” to “nchar(13)+nchar(10)”.

Carriage Return/Linefeed Character Removal for a CLOB variable

Hi,
Can anyone let me know how I can remove the carriage return from a CLOB variable.
I tried the replace function
REPLACE(D_MessageText, CHR(10)), it doesn't give any error,but the output still has the new line character.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Regards,
Anil.

chr(10) takes care of LINEFEED
chr(13) takes care of CARRIAGE RETURN

Carriage Return/Linefeed Character Removal

I'd like to remove CarriageReturn/Linefeed characters from varchar2 field data whenever I query that field. I was thinking of using the TRANSLATE function to do it, but I cannot figure out how to make SQL recognize that character. I've copied and pasted it from a SQL Plus query, but when I drop that character into my SQL code to TRANSLATE, SQL Plus jumps to the next line. I've tried enclosing that character in single quotes, but that did not work. Is there anyway to have the TRANSLATE function recognize this non-printing character, search for it, and replace it?

Carriage Returns and Tabs in XML element

I have a number of carriage returns and tabs within an xml element. When I take that element I would like it to transform to html in which I am then displaying within a JEditorPane. However, when I do this it is one long string. I have tried the xml:space="preserve" within that element and this still is not working.
Here is part of the xml with the carriage return line feeds. The element that I am talking about is called pseudocode. You can see it is displayed correctly below.
Design Document XML : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><design-doc><title-page><title>Testing Document</title><class-prepared-for>Lloyd</class-prepared-for><authors>Ben Garbers</authors><date-created>September 23, 2004</date-created></title-page><introduction text="This is the introduction.

if (player =null)
     NullPlayerException;
          if (NOT (isPlayerNameExist(player)))
               throw PlayerNameNotExistException;
          /* Ensure player name exist in the team already*/
          i ? 1;
          while (i <= length(mPlayers)) {
               if (mPlayers.mPlayerName != playerName)
                    throw PlayerNameNotExistInTeamException;
this.mPlayers ? this.mPlayers - player;</pseudocode>
However, when I do the transformation I get the following with the pseudocode:
/* Ensure that player name exist in the system*/if (player =null)     NullPlayerException;          if (NOT (isPlayerNameExist(player)))               throw PlayerNameNotExistException;          /* Ensure player name exist in the team already*/          i ? 1;          while (i <= length(mPlayers)) {               if (mPlayers[i].mPlayerName != playerName)                    throw PlayerNameNotExistInTeamException;}this.mPlayers ? this.mPlayers - player;
It looks like it adds some spaces but no carriage returns or line feeds.
My transformation code is the following:
     public ParseFile(String xmlString) {
          try {
          //Here we will load the correct style sheet for the message
          //that will be formatted.

          System.out.println("URL to style sheet = " + url.toString());
          String styleSheetName = url.getFile();
          System.out.println("Style sheet name : " + styleSheetName);
          InputStream styleSheetInputStream = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream(urlString);
          //We will than load our SAXParerFactory and parse the message.
          SAXParserFactory SPFactory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
          SPFactory.setValidating(true);
          SAXParser sp = SPFactory.newSAXParser();
          XMLReader sax2parser = sp.getXMLReader();
          //NO Validation done on for this because we do NOT have a DTD.
          sax2parser.setFeature(

          bos.close();
          br.close();
          formattedXmlString = sb.toString();
          System.out.println("--------------------------------");
          System.out.println(formattedXmlString);
          System.out.println("--------------------------------");
          } catch (Exception e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
I have been searching and trying to figure this out forever. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Bottom line is that I want carriage returns and tabs to work when transferring from the xml to xsl.

I get the following line when adding the <pre> tags.
/* Ensure that player name exist in the system*/if (player =null)     NullPlayerException;          if (NOT (isPlayerNameExist(player)))               throw PlayerNameNotExistException;          /* Ensure player name exist in the team already*/          i ? 1;          while (i <= length(mPlayers)) {               if (mPlayers[i].mPlayerName != playerName)                    throw PlayerNameNotExistInTeamException;}this.mPlayers ? this.mPlayers - player;
On the screen this is shown on 1 line. It looks like the tabs are working correctly. However, the carriage return, line feeds do not seem to be working. The xml that is pushed into the transformation has the carriage returns and line feeds and is formatted correctly. There has to be something happening when the xsl takes the xml String. When I add <BR></BR> within the xml that doesn't seem to work either.
I am really sumpted. If you could help DrClap I would really be appreciated.

Removing new lines and carriage returns

Hi,
SO I am new to regular expressions in java and I want to remove all the new lines and carriage returns from some text, and change them into <p>
I have tried,
Pattern pat = Pattern.compile("\n");
Matcher mat = pat.matcher(text);
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
boolean result = mat.find();
while (result){
mat.appendReplacement(sb,"<p>");
result = mat.find();
mat.appendTail(sb);
text=sb.toString();
But it seems to have no effect. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Cheers

Hello, i've got the same problem. I want to replace "carriage return" and "new line" from an text file. and i use the replace all function for a String object. The problem is, if i call the replace function like this:
row = row.replaceAll ("\\r", "<p>");
The "carriage return" is replaced, but not with the "<p>" characters, only with nothing.
Lines from my original textfile:
This is an example.
I want to replace.
After replacing with the function call row = row.replaceAll ("\\r", "<p>");
This is an example.I want to replace.
What is wrong. If i insert tab spaces and replace them, everything is fine. it is abug in my Java Version?
I use j2re1.4.2_05
I hope, anybody can help me

Receiver File channel for XML files: with carriage return

Hi all,
we are using a receiver FILE channel to generate an XML file that is sent to an external partner.
The XML file looks good in a parser (IExplorer). But in fact there are not carriage return / line feeds between the XML tags
of the XML payload in the file.
Our partner now requires the XML file in a more vertical structure which means: for every tag a separate line (like it is displayed in a parser)
Does anybody know a more general way to convert to a vertical XML structure (so with carriage return line feed).
There is one entry in the SDN dealing with this topic but suggesting using an UDF. I think this is a very specific way.
I don't think it is a good way to change/enhance the message mapping just because of a general formating change.
Is it better to use an XSLT mapping as a second step in the interface mapping or a JAVA adapter module to convert ?
any experiences? suggestions? examples?
Thank you very much
best regards
Hans

original by XI receiver FILE adapter
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MT_batchStatus><type>BS</type><header><message><messageSender>SENDER</messageSender><messageDate>20090723143720</messageDate> ... and so on

In such a case, the best is to write an generic XSLT or Java mapping that will attempt to do the pretty printing/formatting of the xml.
The advantage of a generic one is that you can reuse the same class/jar for many other scenarios.
so the flow will be as below in your interface mapping;
1. your specific source to target mapping
2. the generic formatting class

Carriage returns in RTF export

Here's sample output. This was a free-flowing paragraph in the database.

Supervisors and will be acted upon by a single roll call vote of the Board. There will be no separate
discussion of these items unless a member of the Board so requests, in which event the matter shall be

I am using CR 2008 SP3 to troubleshoot this issue.
Please take a look at this file: http://software1.legistar.com/RTFProblem.zip - It contains the .rpt file with data, the problematic .rtf file with hard returns at the end of each line, and a screenshot of the problem.
A large project hinges on this one issue. Please help. Thanks.

This is something CR does to try to keep the report visually similar between formats. I don't know of any setting in CR that will alter this behavior.
The 2 options are...
1) Export as a .csv file. csv is a machine readable format that doesn't have any visual formatting.
2) Remove the carriage returns and line feeds from MS Word. The find & replace (Ctrl + h) can be used. In the "Find what:" window, enter ^p and leave the "Replace with:" blank. This will remove all of the CR & LFs.

How to use carriage return in formcalc

I'm sure the answer to this question is simple, but being new to formcalc (and scripting in general) I am having problems with it.
The details:
I have a dynamic form in livecycle. The two fields I am having problems with currently are a drop down list, and a text box (not field) associated with it. What is listed in the text box is dependant upon the choice from the dropdown list. So far everything is, functionally, working. I have the formcalc scripting event set to change on the dropdown list with the following script
if (xfa.event.newText == "Office 1") then
OfficeAddress1 = "123 Street Road #xD Town City, US 12121 #xD (111) 555-1414"
endif
"Office 1" being the dropdown selection
OfficeAddress1 being the name of the text field
The fake address being the address, seperated by carriage return symbols (#xD) to indicate where I want it to jump to the next line.
The script is working fine except that the #xD symbols are showing up on the final form. How do I prevent this?
Thanks for you assistance.

Thanks Paul, good advice.
For anyone that would want to do this in formcalc, the embarrassingly simple way of using a carriage return in the script is... hitting the enter button... no syntax required.
Don't bother trying to line it up in the scripting screen (my mistake), that only puts more spaces than is necessary and will mess up the text orientation on the final form. Just hit enter and don't worry if it's not lined up, it will be.

XI: Remove Carriage Return +Line Feed at end of XML

Hi All,
Scenario
Currently, we have a JMS --> XI --> IDOC scenario. The Sender Service always sends a CRLF (Carriage Return & Line Feed+) without fail at the end of each xml file once this non-sap system finishes its transaction.
Example
<STARTOFXML>
Data------
</ENDOFXML>CR+LF
Question
Is it possible to remove this from XI JMS Sender Adapter? From the receiver Service (JMS) this is possible.
Cheers!
Sulaiman

Why do you want to remove this? Does this lead to errors?

Stefan

Remove Carriage Return from a TextEdit field

Hi All,
I have a tableview, of which the last field Description, is of type TextEdit. Not only this, when the data was migrated from a legacy system to SAP, either the last field with the value (If Description has value, Description field, else the field before Description) has 2 '##' at the end of it.
The 2nd # is EQ to
cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline
, which I can remove using
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline IN <fs> WITH ''.
But the first # is having the Hex Value 0D00, which is EQ to Carriage Return. CR_LF is Carraige Return and Line Feed, but here, I need to remove only CR.
Can anyone give me the right solution?
I tried moving this data to a string field and then do a REPLACE All... IN BYTE MODE, but again, it didn't work.
Thanks and Regards

Remove carriage returns from a field in an oracle table

I have a field that is defined as a LONG in my oracle table; the data contained in this field has carriage returns/line feeds (it's free form text); as i'm selecting data from this field, i need the carriage returns removed so that the data from this field all appears on one line.
I tried using the TRANSLATE function to convert the carriage returns to something else, but that doesn't work.
Example:
Select comment from Notes:

an exam was scheduled for 4/1/05 at 9am;
called applicant to confirm app
this needs to be extracted as: "the applicant called for an appointment; an exam was scheduled for 4/1/05 at 9am; called applicant to confirm app"
How can i do this? Can the decode function be used to remove the carriage returns in this field?

Remove Carriage return from string

I have a free text area on a BSP (a form). When users type continuously in this area the text gets wraped. When the BSP is submitted it generates a sapscript form and the text area is printed on the form, but it has '##' which are placed where the text wrapped round. I would like to remove '##', so tried the following:
replace all occurrences of '##' in text_area with ' '.
This did not work as the '##' are not recognised presumably because they are some type of carriage return and not in fact has marks.

If you dont have access to the class CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES, do this instead:
DATA: crlf(2)   TYPE x VALUE '0D0A',
      itab      TYPE TABLE OF string,
      w_input   TYPE string.
   w_input = '<contains the text with the line feed.>'.
   SPLIT w_input AT crlf INTO TABLE itab.
Regards Michael.
