Current datetime in xslt

Hi ,
I want to get the current datetime during my xlst tranform. I used the below codes but can not get it .
xslt 1.0
<xsl:stylesheet ...
xmlns:ex="http://exslt.org/dates-and-times" extension-element-prefixes="ex">
<xsl:value-of select="ex:date-time()"/> ...
</xsl:stylesheet>
error i got: the function date-time() can not be found.
xlst 2.0
<xsl:value-of select="current-dateTime()"/>
error i got : the function current-dateTime() can not be found.
Does anyone know how i can solve this problem? Any example or suggestion is welcomed.
Thanks in advance.

If that piece of xslt has any chance to succeed, you have to do either one of the modification.
[1] Either you change the version attribute to 2.0. Oracle xslt processor is one of the earliest to get xslt 2.0 support at the time it is still a working draft. I think current-dateTime() xslt 2.0 function should be supported.
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"[2] There are quite a bit of oracle proprietary extensions there. Hence, if you understand the suggestion(s) all along, it should do the task without appealing to the other extensions which may have their own functions to get the current date-time. This is how you should do for a test, keeping the version="1.0" unchanged.
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"

Need milli seconds part in XSLT Date Function current-dateTime()

Hi All,
I am calling date function, current-dateTime() in XSL. The output format is 2012-04-05T16:38:01-07:00 (Without milli seconds)
How to get the milli seconds part...?

Hi Arik....
At last i got it. :)
Followed the below steps.
Step1:
Created a String variable "currentDateTimeValue" in BPEL.
Step2:
I have used the below code in JavaEmbedding in BPEL.
java.text.SimpleDateFormat sdf = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat();
//Date Pattern looks lil weird. But some Web service accepts only this format.
sdf.applyPattern("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'-00:00'");//2012-04-14T16:24:00.578-00:00
String formattedDate = sdf.format(new java.util.Date());
addAuditTrailEntry("Formatted datetime string is: " + formattedDate);
setVariableData("currentDateTimeValue", formattedDate);
Step3:
Created a Simple XSD with an element "DateElement" of String type.
Step4:
Assigned "currentDateTimeValue" value to "DateElement" element, in Assign activity.
Step5:
Now added this DateElement in Transformation activity, as a second source variable. Mapped this data to the required target element in my XSL.
uh-huh I got the output...
Thanks a ton ARIK :D u r really helpful...

Not able to convert element of type xs:date to dateTime in XSLT 2.0

Hi,
I am trying to subtract 2 dates and get the month difference between the two using XSLT 2.0
This is what I have done
<xsl:variable name="monthDiff">
<xsl:call-template name="monthDifference">
<xsl:with-param name="date1" select="/tns:StartDate"/>
<xsl:with-param name="date2" select="xp20:current-dateTime()"/>
</xsl:call-template>
Template
<xsl:template name="monthDifference">
<xsl:param name="date1"/>
<xsl:param name="date2"/>
<xsl:value-of select="(xsd:dateTime($date1) - xsd:dateTime($date2))"/>
</xsl:template>
Problem I am facing is
1. If the value of tns:StartDate is in below format then this transformation works successfully
2012-08-31T10:00:37+05:30
2. But I am getting tns:StartDate as input in the below format due to which the transformation fails
2012-08-31-04:00
I tried formatting the date in required format but still the transformation fails
Can someone please help in solving this issue..
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks,
Anju

Get Current Datetime in an XSL

How do I add a current Datetime to an XSL document? The following sample works in XALAN but not ORAXSL. date:new() returns nothing!?
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"
xmlns:date="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/java.util.Date" exclude-result-prefixes="date">
<xsl:template name="createCurrentDATETIME">
<xsl:variable name="today" select="date:new()"/>
<xsl:variable name="len" select="string-length(normalize-space($today))"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$len > 0">
<xsl:element name="DATETIME">
<xsl:element name="YEAR">
<xsl:value-of select="substring($today,$len - 4,$len)"/>
</xsl:element>

<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:element name="DATETIME">
<xsl:element name="YEAR">2002</xsl:element>

The following example will work. Please use the "toString()" functions.

How do i get current dateTime in xsl1.0

How to "insert" current datetime in SQL Server

I am having trouble converting current datetime into proper format that can be used to insert values in the SQL Server database.Among other things, I also tried SimpleDateFormat which does not recognise the month value of Date() object. I have been at this for a long time now and would really appreciate some assistance with this. Thanks in advance!!

You can try TimeStamp object
and setting the value like
pstmt.setTimestamp( 1, timeStamp );

Current DateTime in Database polling 'WHERE Clause'

Hi,
I am trying to explore the usage of polling option with Database adapter in SOA Suite 11g.
I am doing a sample process which will poll the data from a database table which has 2 fields, one is ID and the other one is UpdatedDate which is of type TIMESTAMP. I am trying to delete the records after polling, whose UpdatedDate is less than the current date. I am using the where clause in polling option to set the condition of UpdatedDate < CurrentDate.
The problem is I am not getting, how to get the current date in the right side of the expression. To provide the right side option, we have 3 options of Literal, Query and parameter. I have tried will all the options; when I am trying with Literal, the right side is updated with Null value.
Could any one help me to resolve this issue. I need the value of current dateTime as the right side expression of the where clause.
Thanks.

Hi,
You're maybe over complicating this... The DbAdapter should be able to delete processed records automatically for you since you use one of the defined polling strategies...

Set with filter Expirationtime comparison current-datetime does not list members: regional settings?

Hi all;
I've created a criteria-based set that has to filter for users that have an
"expiration Time" "prior to" "today".
xpath filter: /Person[ExpirationTime < fn:current-dateTime()]
I've got one user where I've set a date expired to a week ago.
When I click view members it does not return any results. When I change the logic to
"expiration Time" "after" "today". to see how this logic works, it doesn't return any results either.
I'm working in Belgium, regional settings are d/MM/yyyy H:mm (in 24h format).
My browser language is also set to nl-BE, where FIM actually uses this in the PORTAL field too:
Today in Belgium is 16/09/2014 16:45. But My set returns 0 members.
I've read some articles that FIM needs the format in yyyy/MM/dd format (for import)
Is it correct that FIM Portal doesn't handle this XPATH current-dateTime() function correctly for foreign regional settings?
I've tried to set it current-dateTime("d/MM/yyyy") or other variants, but that gives an error when I'm trying to save.
Kind regards,
David

Hi,
I've checked, the "SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER)" is running, and set to automatic.
I've changed the Local default to "dutch (Belgium)" in the Site settings (it was English (US)):
I've launched iisreset to restart the website.
I've looked at the set, no members. I've validated if the users its date format was OK (and Belgian/European style) => it was.
I've played in the set with the different options (I'm translating as these are in Dutch):
- Prior to 1 day
- Prior to 1 day from today
- Prior to "Tuesday 16 September 2014 0:00:00" (from a calendar control)
- Prior to today
None of these returned any user records :(

BPELPM: current-dateTime() doesn't take daylight saving into account

When calling current-dateTime() from the BPEL process manager, it does not take the daylight saving time shift into account, so the difference to UTC from the german local time is incorrectly computed (in summer).

Hi Aurélien,
this is described a bit in the CCLM guide: Work with CCLM in Solution Manager SP12 | SCN
This step only appears if one of the data pools "Table Utilization" or "Data Growth" was
selected.
If DVM data extractors are running then. DVM records the data growth and the table
utilization. DVM does not record the reports or transactions, which are using the
respective tables.
In order to link reports and transactions (in fact the reports, which are assigned to
the transaction) to the tables a project has to be defined in SOLAR01, where all the
transactions and reports are assigned. One or more of these projects can be selected as
a basis for the analysis.
Attention: Only the reports and transactions assigned to the selected project(s) will
be evaluated and checked for data growth and table utilization.....
Remark: To set up DVM extractors you have to run the DVM guided procedure in transaction solman_setup next to CCM setup.

Xp20:current-dateTime() function returning time 1 hour ahead

Do anyone know if the xp20:current-dateTime() function is incorrect? It is returning time 1 hour ahead, for example: when executed and put into a database, the column shows 2007-08-28 13:46:54.0, but the ESB flow was executed at about 12:46pm.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check the timezone setting on your DB and the App server OS. They must be on different zones.

How to set timezone or output format returned by "current-dateTime()"?

I would like to record a datetime stamp in log message I write at various points in my workflow. When I build my log message using "concat(current-dateTime(), blah blah blah)" the time is formatted in what we used to call zulu time which appears to correspond to GMT, e.g.:
2011-02-11T15:35:02Z: Begin processing file 0101-376547-377-109-0.pdf
Is there a way to get control of how this data and time are formatted other than retrieving each component individually and concatinating the pieces manually?
Thanks for any suggestions!

Xp20:current-dateTime dose not return actual time in daylight saving

Hi,
I have observed that xp20:current-dateTime dose not return the actual time in daylight saving. e.g. when the system time is 14:43:00 the xp20:current-dateTime function returns 15:43:00 i.e. additional 1 hour. Is this a known issue? How to prevent this from happening?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I've the same problem. This occurs in BPEL middle tier instalation
( Linux x86 timezone set to Europe/Prague)
and also in JDeveloper > Test xsl form. ( Localised Win XP SP2)
BPEL version is 10.1.2.0.0.
In our country we have now CEST ( Central European Summer Time) = GMT +2:00.
xp20:current-dateTime returns for example 2006-06-27T13:10:15+01:00
The time 13:10:15 is correct time in our timezone, but timezone +01:00 is not correct.
Timezone should be +02:00. (?)
When I insert this dateTime into database table, I have incorrect value there.
Is there any way to solve this problem? ( any settings ...?)
Regards
Karel

How to get accurate date on current-dateTime function?

I am new to oracle ESB. Using a DBAdapter, was trying to populate a table row column with sysdate. So, used current-dateTime in xsl mapping. Works well, I can insert time, but this time is always 1 hour greater than current time. Is there something I need to do without substracting 1 hour from it?
We have the server & the application running in the same time zone.
Please suggest.

ESB is always trouble when trying to debug these issues.
If you go to enterprise manager. When you login you should see a link to oc4j_soa, select this. If not select home.
Select the Administration tab.
Select the Logger Configuration link.
search on esb, make sure it is lower case.
Find the entry oracle.tip.esb.server.service, make change the logging level to fine.
This should display the variables being passed in the xml.log file.
Is the time zone the same as the database?
Its looking like you might have to raise a SR for this as the application should not be changing the time.
cheers
