Creating XML using XPath

Hello,
I want to creat XML document using Dom and XPath, as per my knowledge goes I can't create it using XPath {I may b wrong, if I am then pls tell me know :-) }.
If there doesn't exists any thing like this I am thinkin of wrapping a class {say its XPathProcesserDom} which takes the XPath querry and internaly creates XML Document and returns on request. Is this a good idea :-)
waiting for comments :-)....
thanks and regards,
MaheshPujari

Hi Piyush
I don't see how you can create a XML document via xpath!?!? xpath it's only used to reference data in an XML document...

Count multiple nodes in XML using xPath

Hi',
How to count the CUSTSERIAL node in the below XML using xPath.
<missingICCRec>
<MissingField xmlns="http://www.Google.com/MissingFields/v1.0">
<CUSTSERIAL xmlns="http://Google.com/InboundService">23809002RN</CUSTSERIAL>
<CUSTSERIAL xmlns="http://Google.com/InboundService">23809003RN</CUSTSERIAL>
<CUSTSERIAL xmlns="http://Google.com/InboundService">23809004RN</CUSTSERIAL>
</MissingField>
</missingICCRec>
Thanks

Yatan,
I created a simple BPEL with assign to count the node. Using ora:countNodes() function is throwing exception but when i tried with count() it works.
XSD seems to be valid. Only you need to have the function as below.
count(bpws:getVariableData('inputVariable','payload','/client:process/client:missingICCRec/client:MissingField/client:CUSTSERIAL'))
XSD Used:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified"
targetNamespace="http://xmlns.oracle.com/PIMtoRPASAmendment/BPLENodeCount/BPLENodeCount"

Write XML using XPath

Hi,
I have a problem. I need to WRITE a XML using XPath.
Supose that XPath String : "/clients/client/name"
Equivalent XML :
<clients>
<client>
<name></name>
</client>
<clients>
Please, helpme ...
The XPath Strings are dinamic, there are lot of combinations.
Is there an API (free ?) that support this ?
Thankz

Normally XPath is used for searching existing XML documents, not for creating new ones. So it's unlikely that anything exists to do what you ask. But not impossible, people do the strangest things. Have you searched Google?
Of course you realize you can't use arbitrary XPath expressions here, for example what would you do with a predicate?

How to get UTF-8 encoding when create XML using DBMS_XMLGEN and UTL_FILE ?

How to get UTF-8 encoding when create XML using DBMS_XMLGEN and UTL_FILE ?
Hi,
I do generate XML-Files by using DBMS_XMLGEN with output by UTL_FILE
but it seems, the xml-Datafile I get on end is not really UTF-8 encoding
( f.ex. cannot verifying it correct in xmlspy )
my dbms is
NLS_CHARACTERSET          = WE8MSWIN1252
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET     = AL16UTF16
NLS_RDBMS_VERSION     = 10.2.0.1.0
I do generate it in this matter :
declare
xmldoc CLOB;
ctx number ;
utl_file.file_type;
begin
-- generate fom xml-view :
ctx := DBMS_XMLGEN.newContext('select xml from xml_View');
DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowSetTag(ctx, null);
DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowTag(ctx, null );
DBMS_XMLGEN.SETCONVERTSPECIALCHARS(ctx,TRUE);
-- create xml-file:
xmldoc := DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML(ctx);
-- put data to host-file:
vblob_len := DBMS_LOB.getlength(xmldoc);
DBMS_LOB.READ (xmldoc, vblob_len, 1, vBuffer);
bHandle := utl_file.fopen(vPATH,vFileName,'W',32767);
UTL_FILE.put_line(bHandle, vbuffer, FALSE);
UTL_FILE.fclose(bHandle);
end ;
maybe while work UTL_FILE there is a change the encoding ?
How can this solved ?
Thank you
Norbert

Marco,
I tryed to work with dbms_xslprocessor.clob2file,
that works good,
but what is in this matter with encoding UTF-8 ?
in my understandig, the xmltyp created should be UTF8 (16),
but when open the xml-file in xmlSpy as UTF-8,
it is not well ( german caracter like Ä, Ö .. ):
my dbms is
NLS_CHARACTERSET = WE8MSWIN1252
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET = AL16UTF16
NLS_RDBMS_VERSION = 10.2.0.1.0
-- test:
create table nh_test ( s0 number, s1 varchar2(20) ) ;
insert into nh_test (select 1,'hallo' from dual );
insert into nh_test (select 2,'straße' from dual );
insert into nh_test (select 3,'mäckie' from dual );
insert into nh_test (select 4,'euro_€' from dual );
commit;
select * from nh_test ;
S0     S1
1     hallo
1     hallo
2     straße
3     mäckie
4     euro_€
declare
rc sys_refcursor;
begin
open rc FOR SELECT * FROM ( SELECT s0,s1 from nh_test );
dbms_xslprocessor.clob2file( xmltype( rc ).getclobval( ) , 'XML_EXPORT_DIR','my_xml_file.xml');
end;
( its the same when using output with DBMS_XMLDOM.WRITETOFILE )
open in xmlSpy is:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<S0>1</S0>
<S1>hallo</S1>

Create XML using Data Templates

Is anyone familiar will a tool, other than oracle that will create XML from data template definitions.
I trying to understand if the data template definitions are an Oracle specific tool that only Oracle can use to generate XML files.
If this is specific to Oracle, is there an easier way to use the data templates to generate XML without registering them in the concurrent manager, XMLP Admin, and then executing the concurrent process?
I'm looking for a shortcut to testing these files without having to register everything.

Why not using XML Publisher Standalone aka Enterprise 5.6.2 ?
There you can generate the XML based on data templates without registering anything. The installation is quite easy.

Creating XML using JSP

Hi I want to create a xml using JSP For eg I want to create a report
          and I want to take all the data required for the report from the user
          and want to put all the information in a session and whenever a user
          wants to see the html output I should be able to parse the xml file
          and show it to user.
          I know it is doable but I am confused about storing the data in
          session and concerting that data into XML file any help would be
          great.
          Thanks,
          Preeti


Sounds like you might want to look at XML data binding. Something like JAXB
          or Castor can create an object that can be turned into XML by merely calling
          a single method and probably streamed to Xalan or whatever to create HTML.
          However, don't quote me on this - I am having enough troubles with trying to
          get the compiled Objects to be as I wish. Basically, they both take your
          DTD with an extra file that defines the types to be used in the classes -
          i.e. instead of string int might be used - and which tags to turn into
          classes and general information such as this about the output of your
          classes. You then simply call Unmarshal (for both castor and JAXB) and it
          loads the file from the selected input stream into the created object, you
          edit the object, what ever - store it on the server... and call Marshal to
          get back the xml... as this is all using streams it could be passed to Xalan
          for processing i think...
          Hope I've helped, and answered your question a little!

Read xml using xpath in java

Hi ALL,
I have a xml as follows:
<AAA>
<BBB>
<CCC>xyz</CCC>
<DDD>abc</DDD>
</BBB>
</AAA>
Now using any of the java class, i just need read the value of "CCC" as follows:
(i.e using xpath i need to read the value)
String val = x.somemethod("/AAA/BBB/CCC");
Thanks!

In case you're curious - here's the dom4j equivalent of dvohra09's sample code.
SAXReader saxReader = new SAXReader("org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser");
Document doc = saxReader.read(source); //Where source is your file, input source, input stream, reader, or url
String value = doc.valueOf("//AAA/BBB/CCC"); //Result given the xml from OP = 'xyz'OK - not much difference with this simple example but if you haven't settled on an API, dom4j is worth looking at (IMHO).

Dynamically creating XML using Sap-xMII Colum and Row Action Block

Hi,
I am trying to create a xMII-format XML using IlluminatorDocument Action Block.
My problem statement is during run time I am required to create columns on the fly.which I have done using xMII Colum Action block.but now I am required to assing values to these dynamically created columns.I have tried using Data Item and Row action block but am not sucessful in doing so.Can anyone help in creating this xml Dynamically.
The steps that I have followed is
defined
tagquery action block and defined tagquery
blank Illuminator Document Action block
put a repeater on result of tag query
set a counter
updated the counter
used column action block and mapped the column name i.e IlluminatorColumn_0.Name------"test"&Local.count
my column output looks like
Rowsets DateCreated="2007-03-27T12:59:39" EndDate="2007-03-27T11:42:40" StartDate="2007-03-27T11:42:40" Version="11.5.0">

          </Columns>
</Rowset>
</Rowsets>
after this action block i want to assign values to each column i.e
     <Row/>
          <Row/>
          <Row/>
          <Row/>
          <Row/>
i.e erach row tags should be filled with columntag and value
but i am not able to achieve the same
Can anyone help me doing this

After adding IllumColum Action block I have created 5 columns dynamically
but now I am unable to add row.
currently for everycolumn created it is giving one row without any column node
the configurations that I have done in Data Item Action Block is
In My Link Editor
IlluminatorColumn_0.Name----
>IlluminatorDataItem_0.Name
hardcoded the value i.e 20----
>IlluminatorDataItem_0.Value
IlluminatorDocument_0.Output----

Creating XML using EJB

hi,
i want to know if the following is possible using EJB and XML.
using HTML/javascript, a form has been created. now the user makes selections using the form. i want to create a XML file that encapsulates the user selections ie this XML file should contain the selections made by the user. this XML file should also automatically change whenever the user makes new selections on the HTML form.
someone suggested me that Beans are the best option to use. can u guide me on how to proceed using Beans.
thanks in advance.

Why not use a JSP? Much quicker.
(When someone suggested you use Beans, I doubt they meant Enterprise Beans - cf. SledgeHammer vs Nut).

Create XML using data from Oracle

Other than using OracleXMLQuery, how do I create an XML file from the data from a table in Oracle?
Rgds,
Seetesh

Vetsrini:
Thanks for your response. I no longer can receive email at [email protected], because I am at a different company now. So please post directly to this forum so I can receive my messages.
I would imagine that "look ahead" is a feature needed by many applications, since the heading of a document may depend on the data within. In my case, we have a Pack Slip that we want the bold heading title to change if the word "FAX" is inside the body of the document. Instead of saying "Pack Slip", it would say "Fax Pack Slip".
Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

Stored Proc to create XML (using nested cursors)?

From previous posts and from the
documentation for XSQL I have
discovered the joys of the
CURSOR operator to create
nested tables: i.e:
SELECT dname,
CURSOR (SELECT ename, sale....) as employees
FROM dept
However, I can not find any other
documentation on how to program (PL/SQL)
this functionality.
I would like to use XSQL as
it is exactly what I need, but
I can not because my client does
not want to use Java and they
require IIS, but do not want to
use JRUN, etc... (I tried this
first).
Since I only need to do an XML
dump to a variable for processing
by other parts of the program, life
is fairly easy. I have already done
this using Microsoft Data Shapes in
VB (client does not want VC++ either...)
However this was slow.
In order to speed things up I want to
create a stored procedure in Oracle to
dump out the XML hierarchy to a variable given
an SQLQuery input. If I use
nested CURSORS this should be very easy.
I would like to create a recursive PL/SQL
function to handle this, but I have the
following questions:
1) I want the function to have an
input of an open cursor,
My plan is to detect the column
type, when it is a nested cursor
I would recurse with the open cursor
to handle the nested cursor.
2) I can not find a reference on to
programatically handle "untyped collections
based on an SQL statement" in anything
other than the XSQL documentation.
I am assuming that I can detect the
column type of nested cursor somehow
and then recurse on this to handle
dump the recordset to an XML tagset.
But I wuold like to find some documentation
or examples on the calls, type statements,
etc....

I think the CURSOR() thing is an invention of the XSQL Servlet; not available elsewhere.
You can accomplish nesting via user defined types and object views, using the "cast(multiset())" syntax, which is not documented particularly well either. This does require some setup, and so is not particularly dynamic.

Creating XML using DBMS_XMLGEN with a namespace

Is it possible to create an XMLTYPE using the DBMS_XMLGEN function set that contains a namespace. As far as I can see only the 'setrowsettag' function allows any control over what goes into the root element - should I be including, for example, an attribute called 'xmlns' with a value?
The reason I ask all this is I'm trying to validate xml created from a select statement against a registered xsd.
The xsd I've registered:

The resulting XML:
<site>
<SiteIDType>15</SiteIDType>
<SiteNameType>Finlas Water Treatment Works</SiteNameType>
<SiteAddressStructure>
<AddressLine1>Finlas Water Treatment Works</AddressLine1>
<AddressLine2>Shermor Farm</AddressLine2>
<AddressLine3>Luss</AddressLine3>
<AddressLine4>Alexandria</AddressLine4>
<PostCode>G83 8RH</PostCode>
</SiteAddressStructure>
<SiteTelephoneNoType>01389 850224</SiteTelephoneNoType>
<SiteMobilePlantType>N</SiteMobilePlantType>
<SiteLocationCodeType>123428</SiteLocationCodeType>
</site>
When I try to validate it, I get:
ORA-30937: No schema definition for 'site' (namespace '') in parent '/'
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE", line 345
ORA-06512: at line 30
How do I get a namespace declaration in the XML? Any suggestions gratefully received.

Did you change any of the text in the lob write statements ?
I believe you get this error if you increase the number of characters without increasing the 1st argument which looks as though it represents the number of characters

How to remove elements/attributes from XML using Xpath in XSLT ??

Hello ,
Is there anyway or method of Xpath from which I can delete the elements and attributes from XML at runtime ??
Like I have such XML and I have to remove per attribute highlighted below
<person per="and">
<e:emp a="ir" b="ad" >
</e:emp>
</person>
And want a result like this
<person>
<e:emp a="ir" b="ad" >
</e:emp>
</person>
Thanks

To achieve this you can use the bpelx:remove function: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12483_01/integrate.1013/b28981/manipdoc.htm#CIHJBJFD
your assign will look like:
<bpel:assign>
<bpelx:remove>
<target variable="person" query="/person/@per" />
</bpelx:remove>
</bpel:assign>

Melvin
