Create XML from XSD
Hi,
Is it possible to create and populate XML from an XSD without knowing what the XSD elements are beforehand (all the examples appear to know what the input XSD will be, and therefore know what the set and get methods should be called)?
Can a user browse for an xsd to input, and the java will dynamically create the get methods, and be able to create instances and populate variables before converting to XML?
I have looked at JAXB and the purchase.order examples mainly, and it appears the input XSD was known before writing the java to populate the variables.
Thanks
John
Hi,

(all the examples appear to know what the input XSD
will be, and therefore know what the set and get
methods should be called)? I think it is possible--you would have to recompile each time (unless you can dynamically recompile, which would be neat), but using the classes getMethod() function, you can list all the methods. You would then have to do some tricky logic to determine which of the getMethods you want (for example NOT getClass()), and you can basically call them in sequence. You also need to worry about handling lists & recursively call xxxType classes.
I'm experimenting with this, and it can get a little frustrating because there are a lot of odd cases to handle (for example, while setting the elements of a list, you need to actually get the list & add elements to it), but I think it's possible.

What I'm puzzled about is where you'd get the data to populate the variables? Perhaps a database, or a bean? If you just want to make a test xml file, then it doesn't matter, but with real data, I think you'd still have to change how you actually get the variables you want to populate the xml file with, right? In other words, if your schema changed, the parameters you're passing to the set methods would change as well.
Maybe we'll see some more packages in the future to make this task easier.

Creating XML from XSD, Only create The First Element
Hi,
I create a XML File from a xsd schema by this way:
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
factory.setValidating(true);
factory.setAttribute(JAXP_SCHEMA_LANGUAGE,W3C_XML_SCHEMA);
factory.setAttribute(JAXP_SCHEMA_SOURCE, new File(MY_SCHEMA));
DocumentBuilder documentBuilder =factory.newDocumentBuilder();
documentBuilder.setErrorHandler(new SimpleDOMHandler());
Document parse = documentBuilder.parse(new File(MY_XML));The first lines of the schema:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
targetNamespace="http://gencat.net/scsp/esquemes/peticion"
elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified"
id="Peticio" xmlns:p="http://gencat.net/scsp/esquemes/peticion">
<xs:element name="Apellido1">
<xs:simpleType>
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:maxLength value="40" />
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
</xs:element>
<xs:element name="Apellido2">
.............................The problem is that the created document only have the first element "Apellido1". I dont know if it is a wrong xsd, or i'm using a bad way to do it.

Creating XML from JDBC resultset
Can anyone give me a pointer as the best way to create XML from a JDBC resultset. I have told that XSU cannot be used as it is vendor specific and ties us to Oracle (yawn, yawn).

I appreciate any help.
Thanks,
MichaelOkay, I've got some coding off a site that looks like it will do what I want. It's quite a robust applications which will do more than I need but as long as it does at least what I want, i could care less. As it will extract files from the datastream for me, it is going to save them to disk.
I believe I have to specify a directory to save it to. I believe this is the line I'm going to modify, so assuming that's the case, how do I specify a directory here:
private File fileOutPutDirectory = null;
Do I have to use absolute paths or can I use relative. Also, what directory construct is expected by java? Anyone with an example of what urls are supposed to look like in this case?
Thanks,

How to create an xml from xsd in abap
HI Experts,
i want to create an xml file from xsd and i want to validate an xml file against an xds.is this possible in abap.if it is possible can any one give me an sample code
for this one.
how to create an xml file in abap.i have seen so many blogs which parses the xml file but i didn't get blog for creating an xml file.how can we do that one.
any suggestions will be appriciated
thanks in advance
With Regards
NaiduHI
GOOD
IT IS POSSIBLE IN ABAP
Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a simple, very flexible text format derived from SGML (ISO 8879). Originally designed to meet the challenges of large-scale electronic publishing, XML is also playing an increasingly important role in the exchange of a wide variety of data on the Web and elsewhere.
XSD->
XML Schemas express shared vocabularies and allow machines to carry out rules made by people. They provide a means for defining the structure, content and semantics of XML documents. in more detail.
XDS->
XDS can process data images from CCD-, imaging-plate, and multiwire-detectors in a variety of formats. Detector specific Input file templates greatly simplify the use of XDS; they are provided as part of the documentation.
XDS runs under Unix or Linux on a single server or a grid of up to 99 machines of the same type managed by the MOSIX system; in addition, by using OpenMP, it can be executed in parallel on up to 32 processors at each node that share the same address space.

Creating XML from Oracle Tables
Would it be possible to post me a snapshot of the ODI Flow diagram for an Oracle to XML conversion? Does the staging area have to be on the Target (XML)? What KMs & CM should be used? Can the XML be written straight back to an .xml file? What should the XML Schema look like?
These are the KMs I use: LKM-SQL to SQL; IKM-SQL Incremental Update; CKM-SQL.
My flow is straight from source (oracle) to target (xml), with staging area on target (doesn't feel right).
My Oracle Dataserver & Schema work fine. Not sure about the XML dataserver setup though - I think this is where the problem lies. These are my JDBC settings:
- com.sunopsis.jdbc.driver.xml.SnpsXmlDriver
- jdbc:snps:xml?f=E:\Oracle ODI\Member.xsd
I am evaluating ODI for a client and I wanted to throw together a quick demo showing how easily ODI can generate XML from any source. I know this is the case as I understand the concept of ODI's components - just haven't had time to read manuals thoroughly.
Many thanks for your help,
SteveHello,
1. Try to test the connection to the XML dataserver.
2. Create a model and reverse-engineer this dataserver. You'll see what the XML structure is mapped to immediately.
3. Integrate data to this model (using standard KM targeting "SQL").
You can put the staging area on the Oracle source or in the XML driver if you want. Both solutions will work.
just haven't had time to read manuals thoroughly.I think you should quickly read the "Sunopsis ODI with... XML" section in the manual.
It is not very long and very helpful. Have also a quick look at the XML driver documentation.

i would like to make my java application automaticaly convert a given .xsd file to an .xml one.
i know that with jdev you can generate an xml file from xsd one, and i want my application do the same thing.
i know also that i can use JAXB: first i bind the xsd file then i marshall the java class created to obtain xml. But i dont know how to do it.
is there a simple way to use the "things" behind the jdev xml generation from xsd.Please refer
http://www.developer.com/java/web/article.php/3722211/Using-JAXB-in-JDeveloper-1013.htm
JDeveloepr 11g includes JAXB 2.0. -
Not able to create XML from an existing relational database
Hi,
I am trying to create and xml from an existing relational database. I am not able to get any XML data, I receive "XMLTYPE()" as the result.
Here's the query -
SQL> select o.order_id, XMLELEMENT("order", XMLATTRIBUTES(o.order_id as ID)) AS "result" from order_
info o where order_id=2793;
ORDER_ID
result()
+2793+
XMLTYPE()
I was expecting to get +<order id=2793 />+ instead of XMLTYPE().
I am using -
SQLPlus: Release 9.0.1.0.1*
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
I have also run some checks to confirm XML DB installation -
SQL> select 1 from all_users where username = 'XDB';
+1+
+1+
SQL> desc RESOURCE_VIEW;
Name Null? Type
RES SYS.XMLTYPE
ANY_PATH VARCHAR2(4000)
RESID RAW(16)
I think, I have something wrong with installation or configuration.
Any idea about what have I done wrong here?Works fine now. Got the result "<order ID="2793"></order>".
Thanks. :-) -

Creating XML from query result (how?)
Hi,
It's a very general question. That is the simplest way to create XML containing data returned by a query?
I've got 3 tables: 2 primary and a linked table. One of the primary tables contains a CLOB column. I need to export the tables to a XML file. That is the simplest way to do that? (There is many XML-related functions in Oracle XML DB and I don't know which may be good.)
Thanks in advance,

Creating XML from large result sets
We are trying to create XML docs from queries that return somewhere in the neighborhood of 13000+ rows, each with as many as 30 columns. It seems someplace deep within the xmlgen utility or the xsu methods, we throw an OutOfMemoryError. This happens whether we run as a java stored procedure, a pl/sql stored procedure, pl/sql script or java servlet. It looks like the top of the stack shows the problem occurs trying to extendCapacity in a StringBuffer. We're running 8.1.6 with java 1.2.2 and xsu 1.2. Has anyone had to query large amounts of data like this and if so, how did you go about it? Is there a slick way to break things up and then string everything back into 1 big xml doc? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I guess you can use pagination,
either using xsu or Top N Queries and then you could merge all the pages in an unique XML or DOM tree prior to persist it to disk.
With XSU:
Go to the following link for a clear explanation:

How to create XML from relational tables based on an XML Schema ?
There is no automated way in Oracle XML DB to define an automatic mapping between a set of columns in some existing relational tables and the elements and attributres defined by an XML Schema.
However it is easy solve this problem by using the SQL/XML operators (XMLAGG, XMLELEMENT, XMLFOREST, XMLATTRIBUTES, etc) to generate XML documents that are compliant with an XML Schema directly from a SQL statement.
If the XML Schema is registered with Oracle XML DB and the appropraite Schema Location information is added into the generated document using XMLAttributes then it becomes very easy to ensure that the generated documents are valid.
The following example show an easy way to do this by creating an XML View that contains the documents to be validated.

SQL>There is no automated way in Oracle XML DB to define an automatic mapping between a set of columns in some existing relational tables and the elements and attributres defined by an XML Schema.
However it is easy solve this problem by using the SQL/XML operators (XMLAGG, XMLELEMENT, XMLFOREST, XMLATTRIBUTES, etc) to generate XML documents that are compliant with an XML Schema directly from a SQL statement.
If the XML Schema is registered with Oracle XML DB and the appropraite Schema Location information is added into the generated document using XMLAttributes then it becomes very easy to ensure that the generated documents are valid.
The following example show an easy way to do this by creating an XML View that contains the documents to be validated.

Unable to create xml from xml schema
JDeveloper 10.1.3 EA1
I am unable to create a new xml file from an xml schema when the starting root element is a complex type (but it works with a simple type). It does not matter if the xml schema is registered within JDeveloper.
Is this a bug or intended behaviour?
Error message:
''XML Document from XML Schema creation could not be competed succesfully. Make sure the source schema is valid and that you have write permissions to the output directory."
NB The xml schema is valid and I have write permissions on the specified directory.When I do not register this (or other) schema with JDeveloper, I can create an xml document from xml schema. However, when I register this schema and then try to generate an xml document (either from the registered xsd either from a filesystem xsd) with person as starting node it fails with the mentioned error. However, when I use city as starting node it is generated successfully.

It is easy to construct objects in a oracle database that produce xml files with nested tables etc.
What i'm looking for is a utility that creates the pl/sql code for the construction of those objects from a .xsd file !
Anyone?You and me both, eppo.
Supposedly 9iR2 has some tools that support this, but I don't know where to find them.
