Converting XML(as String) to XML(XMLObject) in WLI8.1

Hi,
I am new to WLI 8.1. In my business process I receive an XML from client as Java
String. Now I want to convert it into com.bea.xml.XMLObject to perform XSL Transformation.
How do I do it in WLI workshop.
Is it possible in WLI8.1 to use XML in the form of Java String as Input/Output
for XSL Transformation.
Thanks in advance
Ashish

I can think of 2 options.
a) Take the generated XMLObject for the XML as input to JPD - this is the default
behaviour when you use WLW when you configure you client request control method
to take the XSD as the input.
b) If you to take java.lang.String as input to the JPD method then by default
the transformation tool does NOT parse it as XML. You will have to write custome
code (using xquery/xpath or supply an xslt) to parse the XML to build the XMLObject.
The client would still send an XML request in both scenarios... and so both the
above options would not impact clients.
Hope this helps...

How to convert a delimited string to XML?

Hi there,
Please help me to convert a pipe delimited string into XML, e.g.
string -------SubName:abc|SuvValue:123|
required XML:
<ROWS>
<ROW>
<SubName>abc</SubName>
<SubValue>123</SubValue>
</ROW>
</ROWS>
or
string -------abc|123|
required XML:
<ROWS>
<ROW>
<SubName>abc</SubName>
<SubValue>123</SubValue>
</ROW>
</ROWS>
-----i am trying to first parse the string into a table type and then using the DBMS_XMLGen.getXML function but unable to get values from table type...
any prompt response is highly appriciated...
Regards, Hassan

Hi Hassan,
If your version supports it (ie 10gR2 and upwards), you can use XQuery to directly parse the string and generate the XML :
SQL> SELECT XMLQuery(
2   '<ROWS>
3    <ROW> {
4     for $i in ora:tokenize($str,"\|")
5     return
6      if ($i) then element {substring-before($i,":")} {substring-after($i,":")}
7      else ()
8   } </ROW>
9   </ROWS>'
10   passing sys_xmlgen('SubName:abc|SubValue:123|') as "str"
11   returning content
12 ).getClobVal()
13 FROM dual;
XMLQUERY('<ROWS><ROW>{FOR$IINO
<ROWS><ROW><SubName>abc</SubName><SubValue>123</SubValue></ROW></ROWS>
Each element is built based on its name from the input string.

String to XML conversion without fatal error?

Can one of you tell me how to convert the folowing string to XML without fatal error?
String s1 = "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-6.0"?> <Main> <sub> 12345 </sub> </Main>".

First, you can't have double quotes (") in a string like that, you need to do (\") instead. If you wrote the below line and saved the file as a file_name.xml It should work fine.
import java.io.*;
public class yourclass{
     public static void writeXML(){
          try{
               File xmlOut = new File("file_name.xml");
               BufferedWriter xmlWriter = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(xmlOut));
               String s1 = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-6.0\"?> <Main> <sub> 12345 </sub> </Main>";
               // you can concatenate the strings using a +
               // the \n will create a new line in the file
               String s2 = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-6.0\"?>" + "\n" + "<Main> <sub> 12345 </sub> </Main>";
               xmlWriter.write(s1);
               xmlWriter.close();
          }catch(Exception ex){
               ex.printStackTrace();
}There are a few other ways to do this, the one above is sloppy. One is XStream to convert xml to Java objects and back again. http://xstream.codehaus.org/tutorial.html

MapViewer API: addMapCacheTheme creates unexpected XML request string

Hi,
I try to get a map with map cache theme on it. But MapViewer class generates an xml request string in which an unexpected wfs theme
exists. So I'm unable to add a map cache theme since the wfs theme causes a problem and i only get an image painted with background
color...
my java code is as follows:
               String viewerUrl = "http://localhost:8888/mapviewer/omserver";
               String dataSource = "ADATASOURCE";
               String mapCache= "AMAPCACHE";
               MapViewer viewer = new MapViewer(viewerUrl);
               viewer.setDataSourceName(dataSource);
               viewer.setImageFormat(MapViewer.FORMAT_PNG_URL);
               viewer.setMapRequestSRID(8307);
               viewer.setAntiAliasing(false);
               viewer.setMapTitle(null);
               viewer.setBackgroundColor(new Color(0xA6CAF0));
               viewer.setBackgroundImageURL(null);
               viewer.setDeviceSize(new Dimension(480, 480));
               //viewer.setBaseMapName(baseMap);
               viewer.addMapCacheTheme(mapCache, dataSource, mapCache, true);
               viewer.setCenter(29, 41);
               viewer.setSize(1);
               //For debugging issues
               String req = viewer.getMapRequestString();
               viewer.run();
value for req variable is:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<map_request

</theme>
</themes>
</map_request>
The first theme is the one that i wanted to add.
The second one (bold) is the one that causes trouble. I don't know where it comes from.
This problem occured when i started to use mvclient.jar that came with patch 6453515 which changed MapViewer version from
Ver10131_B06102 to Ver11_B07100.
The old mvclient.jar (came with MapViewer Ver10131_B06102) produces the following xml request string:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<map_request
datasource="ADATASOURCE"
srid="8307"
width="480"
height="480"
bgcolor="#a6caf0"

<themes>
<theme name="AMAPCACHE" datasource="ADATASOURCE">

</map_request>
What might cause this problem?

Hi Cihan,
it is confirmed to be a bug with this client library and it will be fixed. Thanks.

To format string like xml

Hi,
i have a string which has a xml content:
String myXML = "<xml><test>Test</test></xml>";
With log4j i produce a trace file with the output of String a: Log.info(myXML);
Unfortunately the content of xml data is verly long and its difficult to read it.
I would like to have the string to be xml formatted like:
<xml>
<test>Test</test>
</xml>
how to manage it?
Thanks

Your best bet might to be getting a 'tidy' program for xml. Most xml editors can very cleanly re-structure xml to collapsible nodes.
Also you could try some proactive logging logic;
after a closing tag, add a \n to return a new line, this will help most editors make it display nicely.

Convertion of String to XML node using Xquery transformation in OSB

How to convert string to XML node elementusing a built in function using Xquery transformation in OSB?

check this out - http://www.javamonamour.org/2011/06/fn-beainlinedxml.html
if in SOA (BPEL & Mediator) you can use oraext:parseXML.
you should thoroughly analyse where to implement your requirement as some good practices advise to implement more complex logic in SOA and leave OSB to only connect to the services' endpoints.
Hope this helps,

Converting string to XML

Dear All,
I am using PI 7.1
I am trying to invoke a third party SOAP API which accepts request in the form of a string which has embedded xml and also return a string which has xml embedded in it.
To send the xml as string, I used the feature "Retun as XML" in mapping and it worked fine.
But the response which has xml embedded, needs to be converted back to XML message.
I understand that we can write parsers in java, ABAP and also do XSLT mapping.
Just wanted to know that is there any "out of the box" feature to do the same.
Please refrain from providing links to java mappings or xslt as I have gone through them already.
regards,
Piyush

Hi Piyush,
                  All parsers will fail to parse the XML message you are getting. Since you are getting the following tag twice within the XMl
"<?xml version="1.0"?>"
This tag can be present in an document only once in begining of the document. First you need to remove this tag from appearing in source.
Suppose you are able to do that then your XML structure will become something like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<ns1:AuthenticateResponse xmlns:ns1="urn:Login" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance">

You can add attributes to the tags as per your requirement. I have commnented those lines in the java code.

Re: Regd: File Conversion to XML format

Strange problem in converting between XML to string and vice versa

i have an application that needs to send an XML document
over the wire. For this reason, I need to convert the
doc into a String at the sending side and back to Doc
at the receiving side. This document is stored in a "CLOB"
column in a table in the database. I use XDK to retrieve
this entire row (including the CLOB - hence this is an XML
document which has a column that itself is an xml document in
string format - this is just the clob read in by XDK).
Thus the row looks like
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<col1> A <col1>
<CLOB_COL> ..clob value of an xml doc..</CLOB_COL>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
When I convert this document into String and back, one of the "<"
tags in the clob column document gets changed to "<" and hence
the parsing fails! I have used the latest label of the XDK build
to get the latest parser jar but still i have the same problem.
I am using the following routines for the conversion.
/* for converting document to string */
public static String convertToString(XMLDocument xml) throws
IOException
StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(sw);
xml.print(pw);
String result = sw.toString();
return result;
/* for converting string to document */
public static XMLDocument convertToXml(String xmlStr)
throws
IOException,SAXException
ByteArrayInputStream inStream = new
ByteArrayInputStream(xmlStr.getBytes());
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();
parser.setPreserveWhitespace(false);
parser.parse(inStream);
return parser.getDocument();

How do you get the XML document? Do you use XSU? You can use:
String str = qry.getXMLString();
to get the result XML document in String.
XSU will escape all of the < and >. Or the the XML document in
one of the column will make the result XML doc not well-formed.
Not quite understand your problem. You can send me your test
case.

Converting Delimited string to XML message

Hi,
We are trying to convert pipe delimited string into a xml schema using a XSD and BPEL funtion. Consider a scenario in which message has 5 fields with last as 2 optional fields. So the incoming string message can be like "1|2|3" or "1|2|3|4|5". In this case how the XSD should look like, since for each field we have to give "terminatedby" option in the XSD. So the issue is coming for element 3 where the delimiter can be "|" or "eol" (end of line). How to specify that ? Is there any option to use like "optionally terminated by?"
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,
You can use below XSD for input file of kind
1|2|3
1|2|3|4|5
1|2|3|4

But in your case if you are getting 5 elements instead of 3 elements in some other file....Use the same and maipulate the last element afterwards.
I think we can not have an element definition for two scenarios.
Update you if i get any..

Hi All,
Can you please let me know for any sample code in xslt/java mapping for converting XML string into XML. We use SAP Pi 7.0
My XML string starts like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:MT_ReceiverFileStructure <namespace>"><Output><?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-9"?><?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="<xsl>"?><Tarih_Date Tarih="11.09.2014" Date="09/11/2014>
Thanks,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-9"?><?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="<ABC.xsl>"?>.

Convert string into XML inside BPEL

Hello ,
How to convert string into xml format ? And make element and define attribute inside it ??

There are several problems with your input:
1. Your xml is not well-formed because the attribute values should be enclosed withing double " quotes and not single ' quotes;
2. You use a prefix (sml) for the folowing part but you dont define the namespace:
<ids>
<VID ID="new"/>
<data>
<*sml:*attr name="std">
<sml:value></sml:value>
</sml:attr>
<sml:attr name="xde">
<sml:value></sml:value>
</sml:attr>
</data>
</ids>
Complete message should be:
<ids xmlns:sml="somenamespace">
<VID ID="new"/>
<data>
<sml:attr name="std">
<sml:value></sml:value>
</sml:attr>
<sml:attr name="xde">
<sml:value></sml:value>
</sml:attr>
</data>
</ids>
3. Do you assign this expression to a variable that is based on the schema of your message you want to parse

Melvin
