Creating an XML file with CFFILE on UNIX server

I've run into a problem with creating an XML file on a UNIX
server. I don't have access to the server and I'm trying to create
an XML file so an outside agency can read it through the site URL.
On a Windows machine I use GetDirectoryFromPath and
ExpandPath to return the drive/path info, then I create the file
with this and the query result. On the Unix web server I am only
being returned a relative path, because of this I can't write the
XML file to the web server. Any idea how to get around this?

Knowing as little as I do about Unix I thought you still needed
a drive "letter" to write the XML file to. I've been told I can get
to the root but that it's root is "/bottomFolderName" (I was
expecting R:\webRootPath\yourFolder\etc\XMLFileWrittenHere).
No, that is Windows thinking. You were told right. In Linux,
a path usually begins with the forward slash /.
I had doubts about your code itself. Did you run your version
of my example on Windows? If it works, then you will only have to
replace the Windows path with something like the following. The
rest of the code remains the same.

Create xml file with values from context

Hi experts!
I am trying to implement a WD application that will have some input fields, the value of those input fields will be used to create an xml file with a certain format and then sent to a certain application.
Apart from this i want to read an xml file back from the application and then fill some other context nodes with values from the xml file.
Is there any standard used code to do this??
If not how can i do this???
Thanx in advance!!!
P.S. Points will be rewarded to all usefull answers.

Hi,
you need to create three util class for that:-
XMLHandler
XMLParser
XMLBuilder
for example in my XML two tag item will be there e.g. Title and Organizer,and from ur WebDynpro view you need to pass value for the XML tag.
And u need to call buildXML()function of builder class to generate XML, in that i have passed bean object to get the values of tags. you need to set the value in bean from the view ui context.

What's the best way to create XML file with a schema from a database table?

Hi,
I want to create an XML file from a database table (which has over 600 columns) using XML schema (.xsd file). I want to know the best way to do this.
The output XML file is NOT a direct data dump from the DB table, there�re some logic around it, such as the XML file has some hierarchy with repeating tags.
I have done this using JAXB by creating Java classes form XML schema, but I don�t want to map 600 DB columns to these Java classes manually, and loop through the record set to create repeating tags.
I know there are few tools around now like MapForce (Altova), how do people do these now?
Thanks,
Chandi

Create XML File with codepage (not UNICODE)

Hi all ,
I'm using the SDIXML_DATA_TO_DOM function module to create a xml format from an internal table, finally I write the internal table in xml format to file in the application server.
Finally I get a file in XML format in UTF-8 (UNICODE), but I have to convert the UTF-8 into other codepage because the file is send to other system which not familiar with the UNICODE.
Does anyone knows how to convert the codepage for the xml internal table ?
Thanks,
Yaki

Another option rather than converting it after the fact is to have it create the XML file in the encoding that you want to begin with. It looks like this function module you mention will either accept a pointer to a XML document object or create one for you. I would suggest that you go ahead and create a document yourself and pass it to the function module.
ixml = cl_ixml=>create( ).
document = ixml->create_document( ).
You can then call the method SET_ENCODING of the class IF_IXML_DOCUMENT. The encoding itself is another class of type IF_IXML_ENCODING. You can set the character set in this object using method SET_CHARACTER_SET.

Create xml file with nested internla table or with header & item tables

I did search in forums some where I came to know that we can use XSL:IF to achieve this. but I could not able to do this.
I tried with using nested internal tables also but now luck.
can anybody please suggest how can we create xml for header and item detials.

Creating XML files with the DME

Hi All,
I'm working on an integration project between my company and HSBC, they are requesting that we supply our AP payment files for foreign currency in XML format.
I have some limited experience with the DME and know it can create XML files, however, the elements available for XML files are different to standard flat files. Also it doesnt seem like I can create files with multiple levels? e.g.
<InitgPty>
......... <Id>
............... <OrgId>
...................... <BkPtyId>ABC00103003</BkPtyId>
.............. </OrgId>
........ </Id>
</InitgPty>
Does anyone have any documentation or experience with creating XML files with DME?
thanks
Phil.

How to Create XML file with SAX parser instead of DOM parser

HI ALL,
I am in need of creating an XML file by SAX parser ONLY. As far as my knowledge goes, we can use DOM for such purpose(by using createElement, creatAttribute ...). Can anyone tell me, is there any way to create an XML file using SAX Parser only. I mean, I just want to know whether SAX provides any sort of api for Creatign an element, attribute etc. I know that SAX is for event based parsing. But my requirement is to create an XML file from using only SAX parser.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanx in advance
Kaushik

Hi,
You must write a XMLWriter class yourself, and that Class extends DefaultHandle ....., the overwrite the startElement(url, localName, qName, attributeList), startDocument(), endElement().....and so on.
in startElement write your own logic about how to create a new element and how to create a Attribute list
in startDocument write your own logic about how to build a document and encodeType, dtd....
By using:
XMLWriter out = new XMLWriter()
out.startDocument();
Attribute attr1 = new Atribute();
attr1.add("name", "value");
out.startElement("","","Element1", attr1);
Attribute attr2 = new Atribute();
attr2.add("name", "value");
out.startElement("","","Element2", attr2);
out.endElement("","","Element2");
out.endElement("","","Element1");
out.endDocument();

SQL Error : missing expression - Creating XML file with ODI

Hi,
I saw threads about errors like this and read that maybe it can come from how I chose the staging area. I still can't see where the problem is. I'm trying to create an xml file from data stored in a Oracle database. The interface which execution fails select data from tables and create a tag in the XML file. Here are information about it :
The staging area is diferent from the target and is an oracle database schema. (I guess it creates temporary tables in that schema ?)
In the flow tab, the LKM is LKM SQL to SQL, the option delete temporary objects is set to yes.
The IKM choice for the target is IKM SQL Control Append and options are as following :
- insert : yes
- commit : yes
- flow contreol : no
- recycle errors : no
- static control : no
- truncate : no
- delete all : no
- create target table : yes
- delete temporary objects : yes
Columns mapping in the target are the following :
WKID        >     THEADER.WKID
EXTID        >     THEADER.EXTID
ORDER     >     THEADER.ORDER
INSTFK     >     THEADER.INSTFK
For every column in the target :
- Run on source
- Updating : insert, update and ud4 are checked
no update key is defined
In the operator, the step failing when running the interface is the loading data in the work table.
If you need the SQL request in the execution plan, or anything else, please tell me.
Thank you in advance for any help on this.
Marie

It would help if you provide error message and its stack trace.
Please also look at the documentation (If not already done so) for creating xml file XML Files - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)

Need help Take out the null values from the ResultSet and Create a XML file

hi,
I wrote something which connects to Database and gets the ResultSet. From that ResultSet I am creating
a XML file. IN my program these are the main two classes Frame1 and ResultSetToXML. ResultSetToXML which
takes ResultSet & Boolean value in its constructor. I am passing the ResultSet and Boolean value
from Frame1 class. I am passing the boolean value to get the null values from the ResultSet and then add those
null values to XML File. When i run the program it works alright and adds the null and not null values to
the file. But when i pass the boolean value to take out the null values it would not take it out and adds
the null and not null values.
Please look at the code i am posing. I am showing step by step where its not adding the null values.
Any help is always appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

How can I save a XML file with JAXP1.1?

Dear All.
I write a program to create XML file with DOM model, but I can't know how to save it? My environment is JAXP1.1 and JDK1.3.1,I has been required not use other XML parser toolkits,only JAXP1.1.
How can I do? thank you.
Many person give me a idea the com.sun.xml.tree.XmlDocument, but I can't find the class in API document or JAXP1.1's packages. why?
what is it? How can i use it?
thank you very much.

The way to save an XML Document is using a Transformer.
To have access to a transformer use the packages :
import javax.xml.transform.*;
import javax.xml.transform.dom.*;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.*;
Then for saving your Document Object (named dXml) get a Transformer Object with the TransformerFactory Object :
TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer t = tf.newTransformer();
Now you have got your Transformer Object, to save your Document Object use the method :
Document dXml = getMyDocument(); // this is your Document Object.
OutputStream osSave = getMySaveStream(); // this the OutputStream you need to save your Document.
try
t.transform(new DomSource(dXml), new StreamResult(new OutputStreamWriter(osSave)));
finally
osSave.close();
And your Document was now saved.

OK, so you are writing the file with UTL_FILE. How long is the whole process taking. Have you timed the time taken to generate the temp_clob with the result Vs the time to write the output to a file.

How do I create an XML file through a JSP?

I want to have a JSP which allows the user to create an account with password and this is stored in an XML file. I would like to b e able to amend this XML file with future users of the JSP but I'm not sure how to do this. I can do it using a database converting that to XML and then save the user input but I don't want to use a DB this time. Can some body give me an example. It the closing XML tag I have trouble with. I could amend the file but the previuos entry would close the XML file and then the newest entry would add on in effect an new XML file to the previous. Hope you can understand what I'm saying?!
I have a file with:
