Embedding XML Icon

The line of code causing the problem is:
<mx:Button id="btnStoryListen" icon="@Embed(source='{xmlData.button.(@type=='btnListen').icons}')"/>
This generates the error:
"1067: Implicit coercion of a value type String to an unrelated type Class."
The xml looks like this:
<button position='null' type='btnListen'>
<x>null</x>
<y>null</y>
<icons>CorporateImages/btnStoryLis.png</icons>
<downIcons>CorporateImages/btnStoryLisD.png</downIcons>
<overIcons>CorporateImages/btnStoryLisO.png</overIcons>
</button>
Is there anyway to make this work?

See this link,
http://blog.benstucki.net/?p=42
Here is the sample,
<mx:Button id="btn" icon="{IconUtility.getClass('btn', xmlData.button.(@type=='btnListen').icons)}" />

Error copying application.xml icons: .../bin-release/assets/icons' does not exist

Hi,
Whenever I try to export the release build I get error from COmpiler during the process that "Error copying application.xml icons: Resource '/Project_Name/bin-release/assets/icons' does not exist." I have specified 4 icons in the -app.xml file of sizes 16,32,48,128 which exist in the path specified and files are not corrupt. I have checked and unchecked the compiler directive "Copy non-embedded resources in the Output file" but that has not helped too.
Can somebody please advise what do I do in this situation?
We are using
FB4 with Flex Hero(4.5) SDK and java heap space specified in .ini files is 1224m
This is somewhat urgent guys...
Thanks

Frank,
Thank you for your answer. I had not checked (will do so tonight).
I had considered it adequate to wipe out the entire system directory (thereby wiping out the integrated weblogic server), but perhaps it was not adequate? I did not specify that this is on the integrated server, but that is the case....

How to reduce the version of a pdf 1.7 to 1.5 & how to remove all the embedded xml form ?

Hi Team,
I am using adobe acrobat x pro. I have a pdf file of version 1.7 which showing embedded xml forms. I tried to remove all the 'embedded xml form' by using Adobe Live cycle Designer ES2. Then i tried to reduce the version by using Adobe acrobat x pro but it's still showing that there are some 'embedded xml form' for which it's not allowing me to reduce the vesion of pdf file in Adobe Acrobat x pro and also i want reduce the version of the pdf 1.7 to 1.5. Can you please guide me the step to reduce the pdf file version and how to remove the embedded xml form from the pdf file ?

If the PDF is the same one from the link in your post here:

Help: XSU and extracting embedded xml

Hello
I am trying to pull data out of a relational database as XML using XSU. Some of the varchar2 columns in the database have embedded XML in them. When I pass in my select statement the returned XML escapes the emedded xml's special characters(turning them into entities) thus defeating the use of the embedded XML.
Is there some way to force XSU to NOT escape special characters so the embedded XML will remain intact? If not what would be the next best way to extract XML automatically from relational tables? My goal is to store the resulting XML from a query into a clob stored back in the database. So I'm not sure if I could even use XSQL pages.
Any help would be appreciated.
Kenneth

XSU can't help you to escape the special character now.
But after 9i if you store your xml into xmltype then the problem can be solved.
Currently you can use xslt to solve the problem,please refer to document demo for xsql.

XMLAGG giving ORA-19011 when creating CDATA with large embedded XML

What I'm trying to achieve is to embed XML (XMLTYPE return type) inside a CDATA block. However, I'm receiving "ORA-19011: Character string buffer too small" when generating large amounts of information within the CDATA block using XMLCDATA within an XMLAGG function.
Allow me to give a step by step explanation through the thought process.
h4. Creating the inner XML element
For example, suppose I have the subquery below
select
    XMLELEMENT("InnerElement",DUMMY) as RESULT
from dual
;I would get the following.
RESULT
<InnerElement>X</InnerElement>h4. Creating outer XML element, embedding inner XML element in CDATA
Now, if I my desire were to embed XML inside a CDATA block, that's within another XML element, I can achieve it by doing so
select
    XMLELEMENT("OuterElement",
        XMLCDATA(XML_RESULT)
    ) XML_IN_CDATA_RESULT
FROM
(select
    XMLELEMENT("InnerElement",DUMMY) as XML_RESULT
from dual)
;This gets exactly what I want, embedding XML into CDATA block, and CDATA block is in an XML element.
XML_IN_CDATA_RESULT
<OuterElement><![CDATA[<InnerElement>X</InnerElement>]]></OuterElement>    So far so good. But the real-world dataset naturally isn't that tiny. We'd have more than one record. For reporting, I'd like to put all the <OuterElement> under a XML root.
h4. Now, I want to put that data in XML root element called <Root>, and aggregate all the <OuterElement> under it.
select
    XMLELEMENT("Root",
        XMLAGG(
            XMLELEMENT("OuterElement",
                XMLCDATA(INNER_XML_RESULT)
FROM
    (select
         XMLELEMENT("InnerElement",DUMMY) as INNER_XML_RESULT
     from dual)
;And to my excitement, I get what I want..
<Root>
    <OuterElement><![CDATA[<InnerElement>X</InnerElement>]]></OuterElement>
    <OuterElement><![CDATA[<InnerElement>Y</InnerElement>]]></OuterElement>
    <OuterElement><![CDATA[<InnerElement>Z</InnerElement>]]></OuterElement>
</Root> But... like the real world again... the content of <InnerElement> isn't always so small and simple.
h4. The problem comes when <InnerElement> contains lots and lots of data.
When attempting to generate large XML, XMLAGG complains the following:
ORA-19011: Character string buffer too smallThe challenge is to keep the XML formatting of <InnerElement> within CDATA. A particular testing tool I'm using parses XML out of a CDATA block. I'm hoping to use [Oracle] SQL to generate a test suite to be imported to the testing tool.
I would appreciate any help and insight I could receive, and hopefully overcome this roadblock.

That's an expected error.
XMLCDATA takes a string as input, but you're passing it an XMLType instance, therefore an implicit conversion occurs from XMLType to VARCHAR2 which is, as you know, limited to 4000 bytes.
This indeed gives an error :
SQL> select xmlelement("OuterElement", xmlcdata(inner_xml))
2 from (
3    select xmlelement("InnerElement", rpad(to_clob('X'),8000,'X')) as inner_xml
4    from dual
5 ) ;
ERROR:
ORA-19011: Character string buffer too small
no rows selectedThe solution is to serialize the XMLType to CLOB before passing it to XMLCDATA :
SQL> select xmlelement("OuterElement",
2           xmlcdata(xmlserialize(document inner_xml))
3         )
4 from (
5    select xmlelement("InnerElement", rpad(to_clob('X'),8000,'X')) as inner_xml
6    from dual
7 ) ;
XMLELEMENT("OUTERELEMENT",XMLCDATA(XMLSERIALIZE(DOCUMENTINNER_XML)))
<OuterElement><![CDATA[<InnerElement>XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX(use getClobVal method if your version doesn't support XMLSerialize)

Extract embedded xml from PDF/A-3b (also creation)

Hello there,
in the context of a research project, we are currently trying to extract embedded xml from a PDF/A-3b document via code.
The project deals with establishing a new invoicing standard (Zugferd: ferd-net.de, only german). Invoices are expressed via xml, which is embedded in PDF/A.
What we are trying to archive is extraction of the xml via java code. For testing purposes, we are currently using an third party skd to extract the invoice-xml, by calling a .EXE file and then picking up the results in java.
I currently have only one valid example file that can be processed via this sdk. To get more data, i used the test version of acrobat pro to alter the embedded xml file. To be more specific, i deleted the embedded file, added a new xml file, and used preflight to make the PDF conform to /A-3b. Although the file seems to have the same properties as the original, it can no more be processed via the extraction sdk. Since messing around with acrobat does not seem to get me anywhere, i am now looking into extracting data from the pdf my self.
Is there any present implementation/library/solution for extracting data in a java context? The few third party tools i found are all based of a .net/windows native environment. I have heard rumors about Adobe giving out tools to extract embedded data from PDF/A?
How is it the other way around? Is it possible to embedd xml into a PDF via Java? Given there allready is PDF file which we can attach to.
I really appreciate reading and thanks for any help or input!
Greetings,
Florian

Hi Florian,
I would look for general purpose PDF libraries that can open a PDF and access data objects in it.
All in all it is not too difficult to get to the embedded XML, once you have a library that can access and read data structures/data objects inside a PDF file. Some understanding of the inner workings of PDF data structures will help you get the job done (e.g. read the section about embedded files in the PDF standard / ISO 32000-1, as well as the chapter about PDF syntax).

Extract Embedded XML within XML using XSLT

Hi,
We have a unique scenario where our incoming payload is coming from Oracle Database table which has one column of CLOB type storing complete raw XML.
We need to extract this embedded raw XML and process it further, each XML has a unique XSD associated and we have that details in a separate column.
So our DBAdapter incoming payload looks like below
<rows>
<row>
<xml_xsd>xyz.xsd</xml_xsd>
<xml>RAW XML DATA</xml>
</row>
<row>
<xml_xsd>xyzv2.xsd</xml_xsd>
<xml>RAW XML DATA</xml>
</row>
<row>
<xml_xsd>xyzv2.xsd</xml_xsd>
<xml>RAW XML DATA</xml>
</row>
<row>
<xml_xsd>xyzv3.xsd</xml_xsd>
<xml>RAW XML DATA</xml>
</row>
</rows>
How can we leverage XSL Transformation to extract this embedded XML in each row? I need the each individual XML available for further mapping. I can split the payload using XPATH filtering per XSD, but not able to find a solution to parse the embedded XML and assign to a target schema?
Research done so far points to do two transformations to get resulting XML or using Saxon Parser if available and use the parse() extension.
Any other ideas/suggestions will be helpful. Challenge here is performance as i need to do this in bulk, will have many rows to process
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You dont have finite set of XSD's and probably you wont be creating a variable for each type of xsd from that finite set.
Secondly, xslt doesnt support dynamic xpath as per my knowledge.
Question:
Do you really need XSD to do the validation?
A possible solution to your question would be using java approach as below: Pass the xml and the xpath query
    public String evalXpath(String xml, String xpathQuery) {
          String xpathResult ;
        DocumentBuilderFactory domFactory =
            DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
        try {
            DocumentBuilder builder = domFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
            InputSource is = new InputSource(new StringReader(xml));
            Document dDoc = builder.parse(is);
            XPath xPath = XPathFactory.newInstance().newXPath();
            Object result =
                (NodeList)xPath.evaluate(xpathQuery, dDoc, XPathConstants.NODESET);
            NodeList nodes = (NodeList)result;
            for (int i = 0; i < nodes.getLength(); i++) {
                xpathResult = nodes.item(i).getNodeValue();
                System.out.println(xpathResult);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        return xpathResult;
Thanks,

Embedding XML data file into PDF, and reading from it?

Hello guys,
Sorry, I'm new to here and new to the Acrobat and its scripting. So, maybe my questions will be a bit stupid, but please help. Thanks.
So, here what I would like to do. I would like to make a class enrollment form for people, so that they can use it to apply for any class(es) they find interests at my centre.
The old way to do it, is to send them a MS Word file, or a print-out, and they fill in whatever they like. The nightmare starts here, since there is no checking on Word, nor cannot control what people could fill in on their paper. People starts filling in whatever they like, e.g. class number that doesn't match the class name, and that class name doesn't belong to that time slot. And they even miss a digit of their phone number!
I'm looking for a solution with Acrobat/PDF. And the picture I have in my mind is, to give people my enrollment form in PDF. And would like to embedded the class data (maybe in XML) in that same PDF, so that people won't loose a file and break the whole thing. And the PDF can use that class data to check if people have entre a class that's exist, and choose a date that's available...
Anyone have or know any good tutorial for that? and on the scripting to do that? Any hints does help. Thanks
(By the way I'm using Acrobat 8 and a LifeCycle the come with the installation.... )
I know it is alot to ask, but please kindly help, Thanks :)

Once you open the file, you can't access it again until the original reference is closed. You might want to look at a functional global architecture. You use a case structure to determine how to access the data. Initialize, write, read, save are common examples of sections inside the functional global.

Help with embedding XML / Flash Banner Rotator?!?

Hey guys, please help me; I'm having some trouble embedding this flash/xml banner rotator into this page, I can see that the file has been uploaded, however when I try to place it into the page, it just doesn't work. I even get error reports from IE, the code was all place by dreamweaver.
The first set of code below is the entire page, the second set is the part that isn't working for me (the part I'm too dumb to fix).
The code that is highlighted in red is the code with the <embed> tag.

problem here :
Really, all of you thank you so much for your help, it is appreciated more than you know! Thank you!

Hi
All I am seeing is your actual page layout, no code.
But as you say it is an xml file (swf), it is more than likely that you have placed the swf and xml files in incompatible places. So without seeing your code, all I can suggest is to check the file placement of all items.
PZ
Can see the code now, for some reason it was rendering the code, not displaying it until I refreshed the page.

Have XML with another embedded XML encoded in base64 - how to extract?

I have a XML-RPC web service that returns a response like this:

</methodResponse>The base64 value is another XML embedded document that I have to extract.
I have the following code (don't know if it's the best approach), where l_val is a CLOB and l_xml is XMLTYPE:
l_val := DBMS_XMLGEN.convert( l_xml.extract('/methodResponse/params/param/value/base64/text()').getclobval(), 1 );How can I decode the base64-encoded contents of the l_val CLOB and store the result into another CLOB that I can then process with xmlsequence() and extract()?
Thanks in advance. Regards,

Hi mdrake,
I saw your answer on the other thread :)
I know about the 32K limitation; that's why I need to store the decoded CLOB in another CLOB, as bigger documents will often be the case. I've been reading about this for a while, to no avail.
Do you believe BASE64_DECODE_CLOB could be changed to return CLOB rather than VARCHAR2? Regards,
Georger

Embedding .xml into a .swf?

I am trying to creat a standalone .swf file with my .xml file embedded to creat an image carousel. I have found no way to do this (I am super new to Flash) except for the
[Embed(source="carousel.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
protected const EmbeddedXML:Class;
var x:XML = XML(new EmbeddedXML());
trace(x.toXMLString());
but when I do this I get a Sytax Error on line 2. Please help, thanks in advance....

Does QT no longer support embedded XML (text3GTrack) captions?

I used to be able to open XML files in QT, copy them and add them as captions in QT Pro as an embedded text track. This no longer seems to work. When I try to open the XML file it says that it is not a movie file. These same files used to work, so I know it's not the files themselves. The files are "text3GTrack" type="application/x-quicktime-tx3g". Did QT stop supporting XML caption files?

There was a problem with the language code. I had "en" instead of "eng" after messing with the language code trying to get another language to work. I found the list of language codes here:
http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php
They need to be 3 character as opposed to 2.

Transporting objects with embedded XML

Hi all,
I am using XFire (http://xfire.codehaus.org/) for exposing my web services. I ran across an issue while transporting an object that contains an XML document embedded in it.
As an example, here is the domain model:
public class Book {
     Integer id;
     String name;
     XMLStreamReader document;
    //Setters and getters follow...
public class BookService {
     Book getBook( Integer id) {
        //Construct a Book instance and return it...
}When I call BookService, I get an exception saying "could not write xml". I guess this has got to do with the fact that I am using XMLStreamReader, the same implementation that XFire uses to convert objects.
I tired information provided on this link: http://xfire.codehaus.org/Message+Binding but now I get something like "There must be a method name element."
Any ideas how I get this running? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks a lot.

Report will not generate PDF only the XML output. View XML icon disabled

I created a PDF format report.
When the report completes, View Output shows XML code not the PDF output.
View XML button is disabled from Diagnostic on view request screen.
Any thoughts. All settings are the same as when other XML to PDF reports are created. Not sure why this one is not working.
Thanks

I'm afraid this is not an installation issue, it rather sounds and application server one, at the operative level.
I suggest you to post your thread at the Fusion Middleware or Developer Tools forums.
You didn't provide any OS nor Oracle / AS version, I suggest you to specify this information when posting in future threads.

Embedding xml into a pdf

I have a LiveCycle form that fills its dropdownlists from an xml file. It will be on a server, where the client can click a button on a webpage to download the pdf. The data in the xml file will change every now and then.
Is it possible to refresh/reload the data from the xml file only when the pdf is pushed to the client? Or only embed the file on the download? A LiveCycle server is not out of the question here.
