Dowloading an XML file from Website through FUSION middleware(BPEL/ADAPTER)

Hi,
I want to dowload an xml file from one website through BPEL. I am using jdeveloper10.1.3.3 to create a BPEL process and Adapters.
Is there any way to download the xml file from the site through FUSION middleware

Another option would be to write a smal Java class the uses URLConnect to connect to the URL in question and use WSIF to bind it to the BPEL process.
Just google for sample code.

Downloading an XML file from Website through BPEL/ADAPTER

Hi,
I want to download an xml file from one webpage through BPEL. I am using jdeveloper 10.1.3.3 to create a BPEL process and Adapters.
Is there anyway to download the xml file from the site through FUSION middleware.

what do you mean download, is it a site where you click a hyperlink then down load the file.
This is not possible as this is invoked by human intervention. SOA suite is invoked by events. If you want to perform this kind of function you would need to create a jave service to perform this.
Is there any posibility that there is a FTP link that you could use?

(I know it describes call to SAP XI server's URL, but it can be used to call any URL)

In addition to all above, following configs to be present at ABAP application server: -
1. The hostname used to URL should be present in SAP ABAP application server's 'hosts' file.
2. Security certificate (if available) for URL to be called must be installed in SAP ABAP application server.

FM to read XML files from Application server in ECC5.0

Hi All,
We need to pick up an XML file from Application server/FTP server. The requirement is to parse the XML file and process it to create material master. SAP provides standard function modules to read XML files.
Now we need to read the XML file contents of MM01 and upload into SAP Data Base through BAPI
I need to know about the Function modules to read XML files from Application Server and also about the FM's that will update the Date base tables with the data obtained form XML files.
Regards
Prathima

For creating the material master look at BAPI_STANDARDMATERIAL_CREATE.

Best Practices:: How to generate XML file from a ResultSet

Hi all,
Could someone please suggest the best practices of how to generate an XML file from a resultset? I am developing a web application in Java with Oracle database and one of my tasks is to generate an XML file when the user, for example, click a "download as XML" button on the JSP. The application is basically like an Order with line items. I am using Struts and my first thought has been to have an action class which will extend struts's DownloadAction and through StAX's Iterator API to create an XML file. I intend to have a POJO which will have properties of all columns of my order and line items tables so that for each order I get all line items and:
1. Write order details then
2. Through an iterator write line items of that order to an XML file.
I will greatly appreciate for comments or suggestions on the best way to do this through any pointers on the Web.
alex

Use a OracleWebRowSet in which an XML representation of the result set may be obtained.

Reading an xml file from a jar file

Short question:
Is it possible to read an xml file from a jar file when the dtd is
placed inside the jar file? I am using jdom (SAXBuilder) and the default
sax parser which comes with it.
Long Question:
I am trying to create an enterprise archive file on Weblogic 6.1. We
have a framework that is similar to the struts framework which uses it's
own configuration files
I could place the dtd files outside the jar ear file and specify the
absolute path in an environment variable in web.xml which is
configurable through the admin console.
But I want to avoid this step and specify a relative path within the jar
file.
I have tried to use a class which implements the entityresolver as well
as try to extend the saxparser and set the entity resolver within this
class explicitly, but I always seem to sun into problems like:
The setEntityresolver method does not get called or there is a
classloader problem. i.e. JDOM complains that it cannot load My custom
parser which is part of the application
Vijay

Please contact the main BEA Support team [email protected]
They will need to check with product support to determine
the interoperatablity of Weblogic Server with these other
products.

Load XML file from different location?

Hi All,
I've been going through an exercise by Karl Matthews to load XML data into an AIR App:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/articles/xml_viewer_on_air.html
but I would like to change where the XML file used in the project is retrieved from.
Currently the XML file is loaded from here:

<mx:HTTPService id="srcData" url="
assets/UserGuide.xml" result="loadModelData(event)"
/>
but I would like to load the XML file from one of these locations instead:
File.userDirectory:
File.documentsDirectory:
Can someone please show me how I should change the above code to accomplish this, as my efforts to date have not been successful :-(
I am using Flex Builder 3 and Air 1.5.
Thanks heaps!

Unable to download pdf files from websites

For a month now I have been unable to dowload PDF Files from websites.
I have un-installed Adobe Software & re-installed hoping this would solve
this on going problem. But I am afraid it has not this problem seems to
have accured since the latest up date of Sarfari I trust Apple are coming up with
some sort of solution to this current problem ??

Far as I know the problem isn't on Apple's end. I'm download PDF files with no problem. But I've experienced what you are in the past and I think you were on the right track when you suspected Adobe. In the main Library folder (not the one in your personal directory) there's a folder called Internet Plugins. Look inside for a file called AdobePDFViewer and delete it. If I remember properly, you force Adobe Reader to install a new one by just starting Reader and it will ask if you want to install the PDF reader. Or, you might want to look at this plugin which, in my opinion, beats Adobe's plugin hands down.

How to create a proxy to retrieve the xml file from web services

Hi Every one,
We have a requirment where we receive a xml file from Kenexa, a third party HR tool using a middleware tool. from SAP side We have to create a proxy to retrieve the xml file from web services by initiating call through middleware tool i used earlier.
these are the steps i intend to follow to accomlish the requirement.
1) middleware tool has to initiate the call to kenexa web services to receive the xml file when it is available.
2) On SAP we need to create a ABAP Proxy service provider to middleware where this file can be received.
Can any one guide me how i can create a proxy to retrieve the xml file from web services by initiating call through other middlewre (its not PI).
Any help would be really great, i am not a ABAP developer, so please help me with this. Thanks.

Thank for reply.
The computers are in different locations, but yes it's possible, the users in this enviroment are all local administrator of the machines, and we can distribute the script centrally from the DC automatically
Acrobat use Java, right? I'm not so expert in java, but something about it could not be so difficult to manage.
Do you know some place where i can get some info about JS and acrobat?
