Double Quotes in MaxL Strings

I am trying to pass in a calc script string from a Perl script to a MaxL script. The calc script needs double quotes around some of the member names (yes, I know I can create aliases with underscores to work around this, but I can't believe this isn't possible). I can escape the double quote characters in Perl, no problem. But the double quotes just get stripped by MaxL. Here is an example: MAXL> echo 'I am "quoting" this'; I am "quoting" this MAXL> set X = 'I am "quoting" this'; MAXL> echo $X; I am quoting this MAXL> There is nothing in the docs about escaping double quote characters. I've tried using backslash, no luck there. I've tried using double double quotes and they all get stripped. I've tried doing this inside single quoted strings and double quoted strings - no joy whatsoever. The funny thing is the example above, where simply echoing the literal string works, but assigning it to a variable strips out the double quotes. Does anyone know how to get double quotes into a MaxL string variable? There has to be a way... Thanks, James

Yes, I've dealt with enclosing variables in double quotes in order for MaxL to parse them properly, but what I'm trying to do is use a variable that contains a double quote. Such as: set QuoteVar = 'I am "quoting" this'; I'm trying to set substitution variables via MaxL, and some of my existing sub vars have double quotes in them so that they can be used to store member names that appear in calc scripts. As I said, I know I can accomplish this with an alias table that creates a version of the member name that doesn't need quotes, but that's a whole deal to maintain just for this one thing and it seems overly burdensome for such a simple task. Also, as I said, MaxL does fine with double quotes in literal strings, it's only when assigned to variables that it always strips them out. I want to create a relatively generic script for setting sub vars, so I need to pass variables around. Just calling MaxL from Perl and passing in parameters that get converted to $1, $2, etc. causes these double quotes to get stripped. So, is there any way around this? Thanks, James

Pass double-quote inside a string via flashvars and SWFObject?

Hi All,
Consider some SWFObject code like this:
flashvars.data1 = "{"requestId":14979,"email":"[email protected]","zip":"12345"}";
flashvars.data2 = '{"requestId":14979,"email":"[email protected]","zip":"12345"}';
If I host my SWF in IE, FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.parameters.data1 will be a string, with double-quotes (" entities will be translated to double quotes). However, FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.parameters.data2 will simply be the one-character string "{".
The opposite is true in Firefox. FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.parameters.data2 will be a string, with double-quotes (" entities will be translated to double quotes). However, FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.parameters.data1 will simply be the one-character string "{".
How can I pass a double-quote in a flashvar using SWFObject that works in all browsers? I've been searching on this and haven't been able to find a straight answer...
-Josh

This works in both IE, Firefox, and Chrome:
flashvars.data2 = escape('{"requestId":14979,"email":"[email protected]","zip":"12345"}');
Is that the way to go if you want double quotes in your string?

How to replace double quotes with a single quote in a string ?

Hi All:
Can some one tell me how to replace double Quote (") in a string with a single quote (') ? I tried to use REPLACE function, but I couldn;t get it worked.
My example is SELECT REPLACE('STN. "A"', '"', ''') FROM Dual --This one throws an error
Thanks,
Dima.

Whether it is maybe not the more comfortable way, I like the quoting capabitlity from 10g :
SQL> SELECT REPLACE('STN. "A"', '"', q'(')') FROM Dual;
REPLACE(
STN. 'A'{code}

Single and double quotes entered in form field cause corruption?

I am creating a database change request system using in APEX 2.2 and the main form has a description field (clob) and a API_description field (varchar2(4000)) that are text area fields on the page. The form seems to have trouble when the string data entered into the text area page items on the form contain single and double quotes.
 
I have pasted my test data below in this problem description(this is not true sql but it gets the point accross). I use the wizard created insert process to get the data into the db from the text fields in the wizard generated form, then use the wizard created fetch process to get the data back out and rendered on the same form. When I use the test data below, sometimes a few characters dissappear from my input data on the way out, sometime form fields go away, and their html is interspersed with the previous form field's data on the page. And I get different results on different tests with the same data.
 
Do I have to do something special for a vanilla htmldb text page item on a form to be able to receive single and double quotes in the string input in order to avoid that string data confusing the processing on the way in to the Database or on the way out for rendering?
 
Do I have to escape the characters? How do I do this?
 
The "varchar2(1) := ‘A’" part of the below TEST DATA string seem to cause the most trouble. The behavior is erratic - sometimes the pattern works, sometimes html is interspersed in one place, sometimes another (on the way back out)
 
START TEST DATA:
Add column pcl3_data_ind varchar2(1) to edc_tran,edc_log, edc_recreate_tran table
Or
Create a file with following sql in it
Insert into sometable values(‘A’,sysdate);
Or
create new table as follows
create table “someschema”.“sometable”
(id number not null,
Name varchar2(20) not null,
Join_date sysdate
Active varchar2(1) := ‘A’
END TEST DATA:
 
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Here is an example of the test data being displayed after being fetched back out of oracle (this will look like gibberish when rendered in the forum system (end of problem description except for example):
 
env

I found a good php related post that has a nice set of the potentially problematic characters (this is in the context of word pasted into IE I think). I am pretty confident that at least single curly quotes do not work well in apex 2.2). I would not be surprised if some of the others were trouble as well.:

Can't import csv fields starting with double quotes but lack ending ones

Hi all,
When I'm trying to used external table to import a csv file, specified as using comma as delimiter optionally enclosed by double quotes, some records are rejected because a field in the record has starting double quotes, but without ending ones.
Assume the customer really want these starting double quotes, how do I change my external table specification such that these starting double quotes are treated as part of the field data and can be successfully inserted into db?
Many thanks.

I have no access to Oracle during weekends, so nothing can be tested. So here it goes:
Suggestion: DELIMITED BY '","' and of course omitt ENCLOSED BY '"'
You will have to update each row of the rows just loaded setting the first_field to substr(first_field,2) and the last_field to substr(last_field,-2)
If all the fields are not enclosed in double quotes (TRUE for strings and FALSE for numbers and dates) the situation (syntax diagrams allow two delimiters only) is somehow more complicated, anyway you can specify DELIMITED BY ',' and update all varchar2 fields in each row of the rows just loaded setting the varchar2_field to substr(varchar2_field,2,length(varchar2_field) - 2).
Regards
Etbin
After posting I noticed it's difficult to distinguish between single and double quotes:
the first DELIMITED BY should read {single quote){double quote}{comma}{double quote}{single quote)
the ENCLOSED BY should read {single quote){double quote}{single quote)

How to replace one double quotes with two double quotes in XSLT

How can I replace one double quote to a two double quote in a string in XSLT
I am passing the parameter string to XSLT template contains the value as
<xsl:variable name="Description">Hi! "How are you</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="VQuotes">""</xsl:variable>
I nead the output as
Hi! ""How are you.
Tried with Translate function, but it did not work out
<xsl:element name="DESCRIPTION_SHORT">
 <xsl:value-of select="translate($Description,'"', VQuotes)" />
 </xsl:element>But it is giving the same result as Hi! "How are you
When I tried with
<xsl:element name="DESCRIPTION_SHORT">
 <xsl:value-of select="translate($Description,'"', 'BB')" />
 </xsl:element>
It gave the result as
Hi! BHow are you.
It is replacing only one character with one. how to make it for two characters.
Am I doing anything wrong in syntax?
Please help.
Regards, Vignesh S

Hi Vignesh,
Try this.
Its a two step process:
Step1: Add the following template would be "called" to do the replacement as your want:
<xsl:template name="string-replace-all">
<xsl:param name="text" />
<xsl:param name="replace" />
<xsl:param name="by" />
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="contains($text, $replace)">
<xsl:value-of select="substring-before($text,$replace)" />
<xsl:value-of select="$by" />
<xsl:call-template name="string-replace-all">
<xsl:with-param name="text"
select="substring-after($text,$replace)" />
<xsl:with-param name="replace" select="$replace" />
<xsl:with-param name="by" select="$by" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="$text" />
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
Step2: Call the above templeate in the place where you want to call, like this:

<xsl:variable name="Description">Hi! "How are you</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="sQuotes">"</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="VQuotes">""</xsl:variable>

<xsl:element name="DESCRIPTION_SHORT">
<xsl:variable name="myVar">
<xsl:call-template name="string-replace-all">
<xsl:with-param name="text" select="$Description" />
<xsl:with-param name="replace" select="$sQuotes" />
<xsl:with-param name="by" select="$VQuotes" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:value-of select="$myVar" />
</xsl:element>
I have tested this and works. And outputs as the following with two-double quote as you want.
<DESCRIPTION_SHORT>Hi!
""How are you</DESCRIPTION_SHORT>

SSRS Report Returning Double Quote string from a Single Quote String

Hi, I'm getting weird thing in resultset from SSRS report when executed. When I pass parameter to a report, which passes String that has single quote value to a split function , it returns rows with double quote.
For example following string:
'N gage, Wash 'n Curl,Murray's, Don't-B-Bald
Returns:
''N gage, Wash ''n Curl,Murray''s, Don''t-B-Bald
through SSRS report.
Here is the split function Im using in a report.
CREATE Function [dbo].[fnSplit] (
@List varchar(8000),
@Delimiter char(1)
Returns @Temp1 Table (
ItemId int Identity(1, 1) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY ,
Item varchar(8000) NULL
As
Begin
Declare @item varchar(4000),
@iPos int
Set @Delimiter = ISNULL(@Delimiter, ';' )
Set @List = RTrim(LTrim(@List))
-- check for final delimiter
If Right( @List, 1 ) <> @Delimiter -- append final delimiter
Select @List = @List + @Delimiter -- get position of first element
Select @iPos = Charindex( @Delimiter, @List, 1 )
While @iPos > 0
Begin
-- get item
Select @item = LTrim( RTrim( Substring( @List, 1, @iPos -1 ) ) )
If @@ERROR <> 0 Break -- remove item form list
Select @List = Substring( @List, @iPos + 1, Len(@List) - @iPos + 1 )
If @@ERROR <> 0 Break -- insert item
Insert @Temp1 Values( @item ) If @@ERROR <> 0 Break
-- get position pf next item
Select @iPos = Charindex( @Delimiter, @List, 1 )
If @@ERROR <> 0 Break
End
Return
End
FYI: I'm getting @List value from a table and passing it as a string to split function.
Any help would be appreciated!

XSD OTD compilefailure String literal not properly closed by double-quote

Java CAPS 5.1.3
I have created a XSD to describe a simple XML file. After this I created an OTD from the exported XSD file.
This OTD is being used in a JCD. During the build of the Deployment Profile I get the error: :Compile failed: xsd.XSD_MB235401907.X_all_B: Line 69: String literal is not properly closed by a double-quote

From the Java specification (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se5.0/html/lexical.html#3.10.5):
It is a compile-time error for a line terminator to appear after the opening " and before the closing matching ".
In other words, string literals cannot span lines.
You can use the concatenation operator ( + ) to fix this:
String myLiteral = "A long line " +
"Another long line " +
"Another long line, etc.";
If you're going to ever print out that string literal (like for debugging purposes), it would probably be better to have a return at the end of each line (\n):
String myLiteral = "A long line\n" +
"Another long line\n" +

String value changes single quote ' to double quote "

I am creating a list with different bill codes within single
quotes as follows
<cfset corlist = " '1100 ','1200 ','1300 ','1700 ','1800
','1950 ','7001 ' ">
when I do an output
for
<cfoutput>AND idbillcode IN ( #corlist
#)</cfoutput>
I get the values as follows
AND idbillcode IN ( '1100 ','1200 ','1300 ','1700 ','1800
','1950 ','7001 ')
However when I put the same string within a cfquery the
single quotes get replaced by double quotes as follows
AND idbillcode IN ( ''1100 '',''1200 '',''1300 '',''1700
'',''1800 '',''1950 '',''7001 '') which throws an error.
Anybody has any clues.
Thanks.

That is ColdFusion escaping the single quotes, by doubling
them so that
you can search for strings such as "singhpk's code does not
work".
(Note the single quote/apostrophe that would normally break
this string
if it was not escaped.
To tell CF not to do this, one uses the
preserveSingleQuotes() function.
The documentation has all the details.

StringTokenizer class problem with strings in double quotes

Hello Technocrats,
I have a problem with tokenizing following string enclosed in (). (abc," India, Asia", computer engineer). My separator is ",", thus StringTokenizer class gives me 4 tokens namely abc, "India, Asia" and computer engineer. But I require that String in double quotes should be a single token. How to achieve this using StringTokenizer class? Or is there any other way?
Thanks in advance.

Try
String[] str="abc,\" India, Asia\",computer engineer".split(",",1);
          for(String s: str)
               System.out.println(s);
          }Thanks.

Escaping double quotes and/or semi-colons in connection string

Can someone show me a working example of a connection string that uses a password that contains a double quote (") and another example that has a password that contains a semi-colon.
I cannot get this to work and I can't find anything in the documentation.
Thanks.

You didn't say what part of the .NET documentation this came from. I tried this with ODP.NET and I was unable to get it to work.
Did you try it?
here are the same tests I've been trying. Can someone please provide me with a working example.

Embedded double quotes in a quoted string not working.

It seems that Numbers doesn't process embedded double quotes correctly in a quoted string. Is this an issue that Apple are aware about? Any fixes planned? Is this an issue that Apple are aware about? Any fixes planned?
This is not an issue in Excel, but I'd prefer to use Numbers.

To run Hiroto's script, copy and paste into AppleScript Editor. Click the compile "hammer" to make sure the copy/paste went well. Then (still in AppleScript Editor click the run button. Then, back in Numbers, click once in a cell in an existing table, and paste.
To run the service in the post immediately above Hiroto's, just click the link in my post and doubleclick the downloaded .workflow package. (You may have to go to System Preferences > Privacy & Security and click "Download Anyway"). It then appears automatically in your Numbers > Services menu. Then to run the script just choose the item in the menu item CSV to Tabs on Clipboard.
You can uninstall the Service at any time by holding down the option key while in Finder and from the menu Go > Library > Services.
If you have a chance to try these, would be interested in hearing back whether they worked for you. They are working well on my setup here.
