How to create an XML document from a String.

Can anyone help,
 In the Microsoft XML Document DOM there is a load function load(string) which will create an XML document, but now we are switching to Java and I do not know how to create and XML document from a string, this string �xml document� is passed to my program from a webservice and I need to read several xml elements form it in a web server.
This string is a well formatted XML document:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Countries NumberOfRecords="1" LanguageID="en-us">
 <Country>
 <CountryCode>AU</CountryCode>
 <CountryName>AUSTRALIA</CountryName>
 </Country>
</Countries>

Thanks PC!
I made it work using:
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
factory.setIgnoringComments(true); // We want to ignore comments
// Now use the factory to create a DOM parser
DocumentBuilder parser = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
//TransformThisStringBuffer is a string buffer wich contain the 'XML document (String)'
InputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream(TransformThisStringBuffer.toString().getBytes());
// Parse the InputStream and build the document
Document document = parser.parse(in);
But which one is faster InputSource or InputStream, were would you put the "new InputSource(new StringReader(yourString))" in the above code?

How to Create an XML document from XSQL servlet which follows a particular DTD struct

how to Create an XML document from XSQL servlet which follows a particular DTD structure.Could anyone send me a sample code for this.

You'll need to associate an XSLT transformation with your XSQL page that transforms the canonical result into your DTD-valid format.
For example, given an XSQL page like:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="rss.xsl" ?>
<xsql:query max-rows="3" connection="demo" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
select title,id,description,url,to_char(timestamp,'Mon DD') timestamp
from site_entry
order by id desc
</xsql:query>and an "rss.xsl" stylesheet that looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" doctype-system="rss-0.91.dtd"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="ROWSET/ROW">
<rss version="0.91">

</xsl:for-each>

</xsl:stylesheet>You produce DTD-valid output against the rss-0.91.dtd DTD that looks like:
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE rss SYSTEM "rss-0.91.dtd">

How to use java to create an XML document from an SQL database?

Hi,
I'm a complete novice at XML and have only recently started programming in Java.
I'm currently trying to develop a package in Java 1.1.8 which requires a set of very specifically formatted XML documents. These documents would need to be updated regularly by people with no knowledge of Java and I would like to make it as simple as possible.
Since the data will already be in an SQL database, I thought it might be possible to generate the XML documents from the data using a small Java application, but I'm not too sure how to go about this or if this is even possible! Any help or pointers in the right direction would be very much appreciated.

Do you have the option of upgrading to a newer version of the JDK?
JAXB does what you are wanting very easily. Also there are tools if you don't want to write your own. JAXB is available as early release on Sun's site as is the newest JDK. Otherwise, you have to design a factory and interface that will do this for you (which is what JAXB basically is in a very simplified view).

Create single XML document from multiple queries

hi all!
being a new programmer in XML world,my question might sound a bit stupid but your answers would mean a world to me. i have to generate a single XML document from my database by querying more than one table. for example i have 3 tables i.e HR_EMP_NAME, HR_PRODUCTS_DETAIL, HR_PAYROLL_SUMMARY. all three tables have completely different columns except one ID column which is a foreign kay from HR_MASTER_LIST. i want to get any insert operation on these tables as a single document. so far as i have studied, one option is to generate XMLDoc using XSU and then add child nodes using JAXP but i am ot geting the logic right.
please do reply.
thanks a lot
usman

This is an SQL/XML based answer so how much it helps you is hard to say, but it would be one option. You can have the SQL statement build the XML for you as shown by this simple example.
SELECT XMLElement("root",
 XMLForest(emp.dummy AS "emp_name",
 prod.dummy AS "prod_lvl",
 pay.dummy AS "pay_scale"))
FROM dual emp,
 dual prod,
 dual pay
WHERE emp.dummy = prod.dummy
AND emp.dummy = pay.dummy;which produces (formatted for human readability)
<root>
<emp_name>X</emp_name>
<prod_lvl>X</prod_lvl>
<pay_scale>X</pay_scale>
</root>Whether that works with what you are trying to do via Java you will have to decide.

Trying to create a XML file from an ASP Form

I have an ASP form on my website that generates a XML data
file, but there are a few problems with it. First, when I generate
the file, it creates a new file every time a user clicks on
"Submit" and I would like the data to just be appended to a
particular, existing XML file...how can I append the data to the
XML file? The code I am currently using is shown below.
Secondly, I need to nest/repeat certain fields within the XML
file. Basically, I want the XML file to look like this (I
simplified the code for ease of writing, so don't bother with the
syntax):
<Recipe>
<RecipeName>
<SubmittedBy>
<Ingredients>
<Amount>
<Unit>
<Ingredient>
<Description>
<Directions>
<Recipe>
<RecipeName>
etc...
How would I create a form that would create that type of XML
file? Think of a MS Access form with linked subforms, but I don't
want to repeat more data than I have to.
Any advice or help would be very appreciated!!! Also, if you
know of a 3-party product that might solve this for me, I am open
to that also!
Thanks!!!

Creating an xml document from filenames of selected files

Hey guys, I am totally new to automator and applescript so please be kind!
I have an xml/flash image portfolio website which has image galleries. Each gallery has an xml document which specifies a thumbnail and full size photo to be displayed in the gallery. If I want to make a new gallery I have to make a new xml document and enter all the filenames of the images I want to display in the gallery. ( I guess you can see where this is going).
This is fine if I have 10 images in the gallery but if I want to make a gallery with 350 images in then it could get pretty tedious.
What I would love to be able to do is select a group of images and then have a script or automator action that can copy the files names and create a new gallery xml document containing the relevant code with all the files names. Ideally then saving the gallery with a sequential filename.
Tying this into the new contextual services menu in snow leopard would really make the task incredibly easy.
Is this possible? I'm not scared of learning how to do this therefore some pointers in the right direction would be great.
Thanks,
Chris

Thanks Camalot,
I was just thinking of selecting images from the finder but if this could be integrated into Aperture's export dialog that would be even better.
this is the xml:

<item>
<ID>1</ID>
<title><![CDATA[Title 1]]></title>
<desc><![CDATA[This is description 1. This is a colourful text. This is a <a href="http://www.flashden.net/user/iceonflames">link</a>. This is italic text. This is bold text. This is bold italic text. This text is styled by a CSS document. ]]></desc>

How can I create a XML document from a DOM?

Hello,
I'm using the parser for C, version 2 in the DOM modus. How can I dump the object model to a (XML) string after changing some field?
Do I need to create my own function or is there a function in the DOM interface??

You need to create your own function. The Java XML parser has such a function
and we'll probably add one in a future release as well.

Heap space error while creating XML document from Resultset

I am getting Heap space error while creating XML document from Resultset.
It was working fine from small result set object but when the size of resultset was more than 25,000, heap space error
I am already using -Xms32m -Xmx1024m
Is there a way to directly write to xml file from resultset instead of creating the whole document first and then writing it to file? Code examples please?
here is my code:
stmt = conn.prepareStatement(sql);
result = stmt.executeQuery();
result.setFetchSize(999);
Document doc = JDBCUtil.toDocument(result, Application.BANK_ID, interfaceType, Application.VERSION);
JDBCUtil.write(doc, fileName);
public static Document toDocument(ResultSet rs, String bankId, String interfaceFileType, String version)
 throws ParserConfigurationException, SQLException {
 DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
 DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
 Document doc = builder.newDocument();
 Element results = doc.createElement("sims");
 results.setAttribute("bank", bankId);
 results.setAttribute("record_type", "HEADER");
 results.setAttribute("file_type", interfaceFileType);
 results.setAttribute("version", version);
 doc.appendChild(results);
 ResultSetMetaData rsmd = rs.getMetaData();
 int colCount = rsmd.getColumnCount();
 String columnName="";
 Object value;
 while (rs.next()) {
 Element row = doc.createElement("rec");
 results.appendChild(row);
 for (int i = 1; i <= colCount; i++) {
 columnName = rsmd.getColumnLabel(i);
 value = rs.getObject(i);
 Element node = doc.createElement(columnName);
 if(value != null)
 node.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(value.toString()));
 else
 node.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(""));
 row.appendChild(node);
 return doc;
public static void write(Document document, String filename) {
 //long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
 // lets write to a file
 OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat(document); // Serialize DOM
 format.setIndent(2);
 format.setLineSeparator(System.getProperty("line.separator"));
 format.setLineWidth(80);
 try {
 FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(filename);
 BufferedWriter buf = new BufferedWriter(writer);
 XMLSerializer FileSerial = new XMLSerializer(writer, format);
 FileSerial.asDOMSerializer(); // As a DOM Serializer
 FileSerial.serialize(document);
 writer.close();
 } catch (IOException ioe) {
 ioe.printStackTrace();
 //long end = System.currentTimeMillis();
 //System.err.println("W3C File write time :" + (end - start) + " " + filename);
 }

you can increase your heap size..... try setting this as your environment variable.....
variable: JAVA_OPTS
value: -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=256m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m

Create an XML Document with HTML Entities?

I'm writing a program that uses SAX to parse an XML document and generate XHTML from it, but I would like the XML document to allow HTML entities, of course, in the XML markup.
Each time my parser gets to any entity at all it dies reporting an undefined entity.
Is there any way I can refer to the HTML entity DTD or perhaps, in my own DTD, copy and paste the HTML entities? How would I make a reference like this in my XML document?
Thanks

Seems to me you would just put something like<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">before your root element. Or whichever DTD you actually want. I found out about them here:

Hello Mr Raja,
your answer was helpful. There is no problem by accessing XML data from 'http://'-address. But if i try to access the xml data from 'https://'-address it doesn't work. Of course i used a https sheme type.
Is there problems by getting data from https??
thanks in advance
