Encoding XML Data

I am trying to create an XML object that looks something like this.
      <LoginInfo xsi:type="type:Creds" xmlns:type="http://login.me.com/types">
         <User xsi:type="xsd:string">bill</User>
         <Password xsi:type="xsd:string">pass</Password>
      </LoginInfo>
A crucial piece of info is that I need to make sure that the xsi:types appear in the final xml.
Any suggestions?

Hi Aslam Riaz,

Gzip encoded XML data in HTTP adapter

Hi,
I'm involved in building an synchronous interface to an external credit agency. According to their documentation their XML response is encoded as a
gzip XML-data stream. As I understand this it implies that the XML data stream is compressed. Does the XI HTTP adapter (Web-As ICM/ICF framework) support this encoding?
Johan Göthberg

From Adobe Support...
"When you use an XML-based data provider with a tree you must
specify the label field, even if it is "label". The XML object
includes the root, so you must set showRoot="false". Remember that
the Tree will not, by default, reflect dynamic changes to the XML
object."
So all I had to do was change the component tag from this:
<mx:Tree id="checkTree"
itemRenderer="util.CheckTreeRenderer" labelField="label"
width="100%" height="100%" />
to this:
<mx:Tree id="checkTree"
itemRenderer="util.CheckTreeRenderer" showRoot="false"
labelField="@label" width="100%" height="100%" />
Just as an FYI... The Adobe support is worth the cost if you
are fairly new to Flex. I have been flexing for about 9 months now
and find their service invaluable!!!

XML data encoding iso-8859-1 . Currently utf-16 is default encoding

Hello ABAP Gurus ,
Need a help from you .
Scenario : We have SAP4.7 enterprise version which we have now converted to Unicode system . There is a BSP application which talks to an external web application (Non Unicode) thru HTTP protocol and sends data thru XML.
Problem : Problem is at the time when BSP application prepares the XML While preparing XML data , before converting to Unicode environment the encoding was "iso-8859-1" . But now after Unicode conversion , the encoding is "UTF-16".
The XML data looks like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?><DATA><ACTION>CREATE_TICKET</ACTION><CRI
I have tried replacing "utf-16" by "iso-8859-1 " . The interface works . But at the recieving end , ie external web application , the German umlauts appear as some garbage values .
I know we need to enforce encoding . I have tried with the following code but could not suceed . The encoding appears as "utf-16".
Following is the section of code which I have written in BSP application.

Can anybody help how to enforce encoding ?

Set character encoding for data template xml output

Hello everyone, in my data template, I have defined the header as
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="WINDOWS-1256"?>
but when output is generated, it is returned as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
Is there a way for me to force the WINDOWS-1256 encoding in my data template?
Many Thanks

This data is read as
bytes then I am using the InputStreamReader to convert
to UTF-8 encoding.Don't you mean "from UTF-8 encoding"? Strings don't have an encoding, bytes can. And do you know that SQL Server produces those bytes encoded in UTF-8, or are you just assuming that?
The stream is then written to a file with the
extension ".xml". When I go and open the file, I get
errors stating that the characters were not
recognized.When you open the file with what? And what errors do you get?
However, when I open the file with
Notepad, I can see my xml data.

Importing XML data into sys.XMLType - encoding problem

Hi,
I'm using "modplsql Gateway" to upload XML file with encoding "windows-1250" with some regional characters in database table.
The table definition:
CREATE TABLE NAHRAJ_DATA (
NAME VARCHAR(128) UNIQUE NOT NULL,
MIME_TYPE VARCHAR(128),
DOC_SIZE NUMBER,
DAD_CHARSET VARCHAR(128),
LAST_UPDATED DATE,
CONTENT_TYPE VARCHAR(128),
CONTENT LONG RAW,
BLOB_CONTENT BLOB
The file was uploaded correct.
My database have
NLS_CHARACTERSET EE8MSWIN1250
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET AL16UTF16
After upload, I convert data from hex(blob) to dec and with function chr() to char. BLOB -> CLOB.
Next I create sys.XMLType from CLOB. With this progression works all in order.
In other system where are
NLS_CHARACTERSET AL32UTF8
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET AL16UTF16
BLOB_CONTENT column(table NAHRAJ_DATA) starts with "FF FE FF FE" in HEX before my XML data. Exactly convert is OK, bud if I can create sys.XMLType I get this
ORA-31011: XML parsing failed ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing
LPX-00200: could not convert from encoding UTF-8 to UCS2 Error at line 1
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE", line 0
ORA-06512: at line 1
I haven't any idea what's wrong.
Whats mean the HEX code in BLOB_CONTENT column after upload?
Thangs

Convert XML data to byte array...

Hello All,
In my application, i have an XML file and the corresponding XSD file. This XML file is having some date, which i want to convert into an byte[] and then save it in a file.
How i can convert the XML data in the byte[]? Here as an example of the xml file and the byte[] data which i want to save in a file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<HeadersInfo>
<header>
<id>0</id>
<Name>H1</Name>
</header>
<header>
<id>1</id>
<Name>H2</Name>
</header>
</HeasersInfo>
In the above example 'id' field is of type 'uint' and 'name' field is of type 'string' with max length of '5'. So in this case my byte array should be as shown below:
00 00 00 01 48 31 00 00 00
00 00 00 02 48 32 00 00 00
Here underlines values are for the 'id' parameter where as values in bold are for 'Name' parameter for all the header values in sequence. Name parameter is null (0x00) padded.
Thanks in advance,
IamHuM

Hi,
the following example extract the id, name values using LINQ To Xml and writes it to a memory stream using a binary writer and returns the result as a byte array:
internal static byte[] GetXmlAsByteArray()
var document = XDocument.Parse("<HeadersInfo>"
+ " <header><id>1</id><Name>H1</Name></header>"
+ " <header><id>2</id><Name>H2</Name></header>"
// additional testing
+ " <header><id>32767</id><Name>H1234</Name></header>"
+ " <header><id>305419896</id><Name>H56789</Name></header>"
+ "</HeadersInfo>");
const int NameLength = 5; // Max length for a name
byte[] zeroBytes = new byte[NameLength]; // Helper to fill name
using (var ms = new MemoryStream())
using (var writer = new BinaryWriter(ms))
// write each header
foreach (var header in document.Root.Elements("header"))
int id = (int)header.Element("id");
string name = (string)header.Element("Name");
byte[] nameBytes = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(name);
Console.WriteLine("id: {0}, Name: {1}", id, name);
// Write id
writer.Write(GetUIntBytes((uint)id));
// Write name NameLength (5) max, otherwise padded
if (nameBytes.Length > NameLength)
writer.Write(nameBytes, 0, NameLength);
else
writer.Write(nameBytes, 0, nameBytes.Length);
if (nameBytes.Length < NameLength)
writer.Write(zeroBytes, 0, NameLength - nameBytes.Length);
byte[] result = ms.ToArray();
// dump array
foreach (var value in result)
Console.Write("{0:X2} ", value);
Console.WriteLine();
return result;
public static byte[] GetUIntBytes(uint value)
if (BitConverter.IsLittleEndian)
// swap bytes
value = ((value & 0x00ff) << 24)
| ((value & 0xff00) << 8)
| ((value & 0x00ff0000) >> 8)
| ((value & 0xff000000) >> 24);
return BitConverter.GetBytes(value);
For a general purpose solution you should create a class and split the example into separate methods to extract the data and write the values (integers, strings).

How to create a report using XML data source from Crystal Report Designer

Hi,
Iu2019m having Crystal Report Designer XI R2 SP4. Iu2019m trying to create a report using XML data source stored on disk. This is a customer order report and the xml is structured in such a way that it has an order details header part (master) and then it has several order lines (detail). One order line can have several order line characteristics (detail-detail). So what I need to know is now I can design this layout from the designer. If this was done using views I can do it with sub-reports but using xml data this seems to be different. Can you help me to design this layout? I have included the xml and xsd as well.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Sourashree,
Thank you for the response and ideas you have given me so far. I can get the fetch the data from the data source without any problem. That is I do the following,
1.     New Report
2.     From Create New Connection-> XML
3.     Provide the u201CLocal XML Fileu201D and have u201CSpecify Schema Fileu201D checked -> Next
4.     Provide the u201CLocal Schema Fileu201D -> Finish
Then I can see the following under XML
+ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST
        CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS/CHARACTERSTIC_ITEM
And from here if I add the following three I can get all the fields I need to the report
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS/CHARACTERSTIC_ITEM
Then I come to the Linking section. Here I canu2019t link anything. There is a common field called u201CInternal_IDu201D but I canu2019t link using it. So I get a message when I click Next. From here I add all the fields.
For this point onwards only I need help. How do I group, add fields and design the layout so I can get an report output as follows.

How can I achieve this kind of a layout using the give xml and xsd? Should I use grouping if so how should I do the grouping?
I have included the full xml and xsd in the first mail I posted but I canu2019t see it now. I can include that again if you want.

Master Detail XML data in reports

Hello,
Can some one show a simple way of creating a XML data like below? I am trying to generate a PO report in PDF. the PDF document can print multiple POs with lines.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<PO_HEADER>
<PONUMBER>123</PONUMBER>
<POLINES>
<ITEM> BOLT </ITEM>
<QTY>1 </QTY>
<PRICE> 123</PRICE>
</POLINES>
<PO_HEADER>
<PO_HEADER>
<PONUMBER>222</PONUMBER>
<POLINES>
<ITEM> BOLT </ITEM>
<QTY>2 </QTY>
<PRICE> 2</PRICE>
</POLINES>
<PO_HEADER>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
looks like I need to add multiple queries to the reports
Apex-->Application-->Shared Componets --> Report Queries -- Create New
and I can get result in <ROWSET1> <ROWSET2> etc.. I actually need the xml data in above format. Is it possible?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW>

<USER_INFO></USER_INFO>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>

XML Data from PL/SQL procedure -- special character issue (eBS)

Hi All,
I am developing a report, where the XML data is created by a PL/SQL procedure. I chose this approach over a data template, since there is a lot of processing involved in producing the actual data, and it cannot be done by select-statements alone. The report is run as a regular concurrent request.
So far so good. There is a problem though. Every time the data contains special characters (ä, ö, umlauts), the concurrent request is completed with a warning, the log confirms that "One or more post-processing actions failed.", also there is no output file. The XML structure is valid as such. The report runs smoothly and produces the output when the XML data does not contain special characters.
I am producing the XML lines by using the standard FND_FILE.PUT_LINE procedure: Fnd_File.put_line(Fnd_File.output, '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>'); This seems like a character encoding issue, but declaring the UTF-8 encoding in this way does not solve the problem.
Any ideas what can be done to fix this? I have been searching Metalink but cannot find an answer. Many thanks for your kind help.
Best Regards, Matilda

Hi Rajesh,
One idea I have, is that it might be possible to modify the PL/SQL code into a "before report" type trigger, attached to a data template. The code would process the data and write the lines into a temporary table, from which the data template could retrieve them in a simple select-query. However, it would be neat to be able to solve this without adding an extra layer of processing, since BI Publisher supposedly supports PL/SQL procedures as the data source.
The data in this case is all correct, special characters are an intrinsic feature of the Finnish language. :)
Best Regards, Matilda

JDev generated webservices encodes XML output from PL/SQL procedure

I have a PL/SQL packaged procedure which takes some input parameters and produces one output parameter. The output parameter is of type CLOB and after the procedure has run, it contains a big piece of XML data.
Using JDeveloper 10.1.3.1, I've published this packaged procedure as a webservice. The generated webservice is fine and works, except for one tiny little issue: the XML that is taken from the output parameter is encoded.
Here is an example of the SOAP message that the webservice returns:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:ns0="http://gbv0300u/GBV0300U.wsdl/types/"><env:Body><ns0:gbv0300uResponse
Element><ns0:result><ns0:obvglijstOut> & gt;type>GBV0001& gt ;/type& lt;
& gt;diensten& lt;
& gt;dienst>some value& gt;/dienst& lt;
& gt;/diensten& lt;
</ns0:obvglijstOut></ns0:result></ns0:gbv0300uResponseElement></env:Body></env:Envelope>
(I've manually added an extra space between the & and lt; or gt; to make sure a browser will not translate it into a < or >!)
The contents of the <ns0:obvglijstOut> element are filled with the output parameter from the PL/SQL package.
How can I change the generated webservice, so the output from the PL/SQL package is used as is instead of being encoded?

Update: I've tested a bit more by adding some output statements to the java code that JDeveloper generated. I'm now 100% sure the PL/SQL code gives the XML data correctly to the webservice.
At this moment my guess is that somewhere in the WSDL definition there is something that enables the encoding of the data. But I'm not sure.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

How to search XML data from a HTTPMultiService and display the result on the Spark List

Hello all,
I am totally new to Flash Builder and Actionscript and hope someone might be able to help me out. I basically create a mobile app with a single view. The view has a TextInput as a search box and a search button. I conntected a Data/Service using a local XML file and bind the Data to a Spark List. Innitally the List will show nothing until the user enter the search term and hit the button. The List suppose to show the XML data that match the search term.
Now is my problem. I cannot make the List to show the data that match the search text. The List just shows ALL the data.
Here are my MXML code:

Reading XML Data from ABAP Program?

Hi,
How do I read XML Data from an ABAP Program? For example if I have the below basic XML Code-
<xml>
<Name> Thiru </Name>
<Age> 24 </Age>
<City> chennai </Chennai>
</xml>
How do i read the data within the Name,Age, and City tags into variables in the ABAP Program?
Regards,
Thiru

if you decide to do in XSLT, I have a sample list here:
XML file like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>
<F>
<P1>
<t_1>value1</t_1>
<t_2>testvalue</t_2>
</P1>
<P2>
</P2>
</F>
XSLT file like this:
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:sapxsl="http://www.sap.com/sapxsl" version="1.0">
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="F">
<asx:abap xmlns:asx="http://www.sap.com/abapxml" version="1.0">
<asx:values>
<<b>DOCUMENT</b>>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</<b>DOCUMENT</b>>
</asx:values>
</asx:abap>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="P1">
<ENTRY>
<<b>T_1</b>><xsl:value-of select="t_1"/></T_1>
<<b>T_2</b>><xsl:value-of select="t_2"/></T_2>
</ENTRY>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
ABAP program like this:
DATA: BEGIN OF wa_upload,
text(255) TYPE c,
END OF wa_upload,
itab_upload LIKE TABLE OF wa_upload,
BEGIN OF wa_document,
t_1 TYPE string,
t_2 TYPE string,
END OF wa_document,
itab_document LIKE TABLE OF wa_document.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
EXPORTING
filename = 'XXXXX'
filetype = 'ASC'
TABLES
data_tab = itab_upload.
CALL TRANSFORMATION zrappel_xml_test
SOURCE XML itab_upload
RESULT <b>document</b> = itab_document.
You should pay attention to the bold words.
hope it will be helpful
thanks
