Creating Java file from XML data

I have a information regarding a java file like class Name, attribute name,type, and function details in a XML file now I want to create a java file from this XML. Kindly tell me the some way to solve this problem as soon as possible.
Thanks
Sumit Kumar Agarwal

So how does it take this file
file>
<statement>
<name>John Dow </name>
<address>123 Main</address>
<phone>972-213-3434</phone>
</statement>
<statement>
<name>Jane Dow </name>
<address>345 Main</address>
<phone>972-213-3534</phone>
</statement>
<statement>
<name>Marry Dow </name>
<address>678 Main</address>
<phone>972-213-3435</phone>
</statement>
</file>
and create these three different one?
1.)
<statement>
<name>John Dow </name>
<address>123 Main</address>
<phone>972-213-3434</phone>
</statement>
2.)
<statement>
<name>Jane Dow </name>
<address>345 Main</address>
<phone>972-213-3534</phone>
</statement>
3.)
<statement>
<name>Marry Dow </name>
<address>678 Main</address>
<phone>972-213-3435</phone>
</statement>
Is it not going to just grab each element after the file tag? I'm just confused about that.

  • Create XLS file with XML data

    Hello,
    Is there Java libraries to create Excel files from XML data, like FOP that creating PDF files ?
    Another question : where can I find the javadoc of FOP's classes, particularly org.apache.fop.apps.Driver class ? Because I can't find it on http://xml.apache.org

  • How to generate .java file from xml?

    Does anyone have an idea of how i can generate .java file from xml file? Tools like jakrata digester, JOX are there but both of them are useful in populating java beans from xml. My requirement is to generate .java file from .xml with getters and setters methods for xml elements/attributes. I also tried JAXB. But JAXB generates bunch of files and most of them are interfaces, which is not going to work for me.
    For e.g. i have following xml file and i want to generate Address.java file with getters/setters. Any ideas?
    <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
    <Address>
    <FirstName type="String"/>
    <PoBox type="int"/>
    </Address>
    Thanks,

  • Calling a created Java file from an AIR application

    I've got a guy helping me out who is creating a Java file that outputs an F1 keypress to the operating system/desktop (which Flex alone can't do.
    My problem is I need to know how I can call/activate this file from within an AIR application. I want my app to be ready for when he has created it for me but I've never used Flex to call an application so I would not know what classes need to be called or if any script would be required.
    In the following simple code lets say if the Java file itself was called keypress.java (or whatever file extension a java file has) what code would need to be added in, including imported classes, to make the click of the button activate this java file?
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
    <mx:Button id="KeypressButton" label="Button" horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0" click=""/>
    </mx:WindowedApplication>

    I think one solution is to use a Java proxy to call the Web services.
    In the Java proxy you can have a method that accepts the user/pass and sets them correctly for the Web service.
    Then you expose that Java proxy as a data control (right click, create data control) - and then create a page that invokes that method.
    (For the basics of working with a POJO data control see: http://blogs.oracle.com/shay/2009/07/java_class_data_control_and_ad.html )

  • Can I create an XSD from XML data in a CLOB?

    Environment:
    Oracle 11.2.0.3 EE on Solaris.
    Very much an XML newbie so please be kind! 
    I have spent the past few days pouring through the documentation and various blogs, especially this one, but ... I need some help.
    I am trying to extract XML data stored in a CLOB and produce a flat file for the user's consumption.
    They have sent me what they think is the XSD for the XML data but when I look at the data in the CLOB I don't see the tags documented in the XSD.
    I'd like to produce an XSD based on the actual data to compare with what they've sent.
    Is this possible?
    I am able to query the XML data using the tags I see in the data using XMLTable and it's working fine.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to the XML side of the world, where you will love it and curse it, just like any other piece of technology.
    So as I understand it, the scope of your operation is to extract information from an XML file and then write that information to disk, correct?
    Some questions
    - Why is the XML stored in a CLOB instead of an XMLType column?  Without knowing the system history, it is a valid question.
    - How big are the XML?  The reason I ask this is because when the XML is stored in XMLType columns (of Object Relational structure or SECUREFILE BINARY XML format), then Oracle can parse the XML substantially easier than when it is stored as a CLOB.  If the XML is fairly small, you may see no performance difference between the two.
    The Oracle DB itself has no built in ability to generate a schema from an XML file.  In order to do that, you would need to use some third party tool that has that functionality built in.  For example, XML Spy can do this.  Other tools can as well, but that is what came to mind first as it is what I use.  The one thing to remember is that the schema it builds represents that one instance of XML.  Other instances of XML may be different and not validate against the schema you generated, but still have been valid against the unknown original schema.
    You can register the schema in the database and then use the XML to create an XMLType instance associated to the schema and then validate the XML that way.  One example can be found at XML DB FAQ and here is another example Re: XML Schema validation
    Hope that helps you continue on.

  • Seeking simple example pl/sql to create text file from table data

  • Create text file from form data

    I need to create a form using dreamweaver and coldfusion. We
    do not have coldfusion server. just Dreamweaver 8. Until we decide
    what application server we will use, I need to create a text file
    each time a user submits data from a form and put the data into a
    text file. What would be the best way to handle this?

    if you do not have an application server like CF or PHP or
    ASP (or
    other) to process your form submissions, you should look for
    a perl/cgi
    script that can do it for you. i remember from awhile ago a
    script
    called bnbform from bignosebird.com ... it is used for
    emailing form
    submissions to a designated email address, but if i remember
    correctly
    it also stored form data in a text file....

    I recommend you use the API JAXB. Is much simpler.

  • How do I create a Powerpoint file from XML?

    Good afternoon everyone,
    I've used Apache FOP to create PDF files from XML before, and that works great.
    Is anyone aware of a similar tool or means of creating a PowerPoint file? Any open-source packages out there that I can use? Any standard sun classes I missed? Any code snippets available? Anything?
    Thanks tons!
    -Scott

    MS says that it will be using XML for everything from now on. (but we all know MS) So I suppose it should be possible to convert to PP from XML, however I think you will have a hard time finding a Java implementation from either Sun or MS (they don't like each other)

  • How to create an Excel file from XML in the Receiver File Adapter Comm Ch

    How do I create an Excel file from XML in the Receiver File Adapter Communication Channel? I have my mapping done and I am outputting the file as a comma delimited csv file. However, the target can only process an Excel file (.xls). How can I generate an Excel in XI?
    I saw this blog, but I don't know how to create a XSLT transformation.
    /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/12/10/xi-generating-excel-files-without-the-java-nor-the-conversion-agent-not-possible
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Here are the steps I took to create an XSLT transformation in XI 3.0:
    1. I created my source and target XSDs using XMLSpy.
    2. I created the XSLT mapping from source to target in XMLSpy (referencing the souce XSD schema).
    3. I created another XSLT mapping to format the target into Excel XML.
    4. Import the source and target XSDs in the IR's External Definitions
    5. Zip each XSLT mapping (.xls) and import it into the IR's Imported Archives
    6. Reference the XSL mappings in the Interface Mapping

  • Java code to generate XML File from XML Schema

    Hi I need this asap... "Java code to generate XML File from XML Schema i.e XML Schema Definition, XSD file".
    Thankz in advance...

    JAXB has been available as an early release download for some time. There are also XML Binding packages available from Borland (JBuilder) and Castor. These tools create Java classes from a source document, xml,dtd etc. You can use these classes to marshal-unmarshal XML documents.

  • How to create a report using XML data source from Crystal Report Designer

    Hi,
    Iu2019m having Crystal Report Designer XI R2 SP4. Iu2019m trying to create a report using XML data source stored on disk. This is a customer order report and the xml is structured in such a way that it has an order details header part (master) and then it has several order lines (detail). One order line can have several order line characteristics (detail-detail). So what I need to know is now I can design this layout from the designer. If this was done using views I can do it with sub-reports but using xml data this seems to be different. Can you help me to design this layout? I have included the xml and xsd as well.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi Sourashree,
    Thank you for the response and ideas you have given me so far. I can get the fetch the data from the data source without any problem. That is I do the following,
    1.     New Report
    2.     From Create New Connection-> XML
    3.     Provide the u201CLocal XML Fileu201D and have u201CSpecify Schema Fileu201D checked -> Next
    4.     Provide the u201CLocal Schema Fileu201D  -> Finish
    Then I can see the following under XML
    + CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST
            CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST
         CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP
         CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES
         CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE
         CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS
         CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS/CHARACTERSTIC_ITEM
    And from here if I add the following three I can get all the fields I need to the report
         CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP
         CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE
         CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS/CHARACTERSTIC_ITEM
    Then I come to the Linking section. Here I canu2019t link anything. There is a common field called u201CInternal_IDu201D but I canu2019t link using it. So I get a message when I click Next. From here I add all the fields.
    For this point onwards only I need help. How do I group, add fields and design the layout so I can get an report output as follows.
    Date
    Order number                                   Authorized code
    Customer No
    Name
    Phone
    Fax email
    Shipping address 1                              Billing Address 1
    Shipping address 2                              Billing Address 2
    Shipping address 3                              Billing Address 3
    Shipping address 4                              Billing Address 4

    Characteristic details belonging to Order line 1       CHARACTERISTIC_ID 1  CHARACTERISTIC_VALUE1
                                           CHARACTERISTIC_ID 2  CHARACTERISTIC_VALUE2
                                           CHARACTERISTIC_ID 3  CHARACTERISTIC_VALUE3

    Characteristic details belonging to Order line 2
    Order Line 3 detailsu2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026
    Characteristic details belonging to Order line 3
    Order Line 4 detailsu2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026
    Characteristic details belonging to Order line 4
    Order Line 5 detailsu2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026
    Characteristic details belonging to Order line 5
    How can I achieve this kind of a layout using the give xml and xsd? Should I use grouping if so how should I do the grouping?
    I have included the full xml and xsd in the first mail I posted but I canu2019t see it now. I can include that again if you want.
