Escape double quotes in replace formula in runcat.cmd

Hi All,
We are using command line (runcat.cmd) for search and replacing strings. I need to escape doble quotes from the formula. Please suggest a way to do it.
For e.g,
I want to replace
<sawx:expr xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xsi:type="xsd:string">May</sawx:expr>
with
<sawx:expr xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xsi:type="xsd:string">Jun</sawx:expr>
The complete string "<sawx:expr xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xsi:type="xsd:string">May</sawx:expr>" is not working as we need to
override the double quotes.
If anyone has achieved this, please let us know.
Thanks,
Nithin

Hi MK,
We want to ensure that this replace does not have unnecessary impacts. i.e. if a column formula contains "May", it should not be changed.
The no of such reports are huge, hence we can not go to each and every report and modify the XML.
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Nithin

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.

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

Loading csv file trying to replace double quotes

Hi, I am trying to load a csv file with a field with double qoutes that I want to replace the double qoutes to one. The CSV file I will enter
"TEST,2345" in a field and when it loads its as ""TEST,2345""
So I got this code to handle it.
Pattern quotesRegex = Pattern.compile("\"\"");
          Matcher m = fieldRegex.matcher(line);
          while (m.find()) {
               String field;
               if (m.group(1) != null) {
                    // If a quoted string was matched replace escaped double quote,
                    // "" with "
                    field = quotesRegex.matcher(m.group(1)).replaceAll("\"");
else {
                    field = m.group(2);
               fields.add(field.trim());
I want to change a line like this
D,,""TEST,2345"",46,,
to
D,,"TEST,2345",46,,
but afterwards nothing has changed the record looks as below
D,,""TEST,2345"",46,,
Whats wrong with this?
thanks

I simply created a simple csv file with one field that I entered a double qoute of "TEST,2345"
Later when reading in the file(using the code I pasted in) I can inspect it and its """TEST,2345"""
The relaceAll doesnt seem to change anything(nor did my code). So I was stumped. thanks

Regular Expression: Extract Subgroup Content between Double Quotes

I am using java Pattern and Matcher to match the content between the double quotes. But the result is not what I expected.
Here are some of my code:
String s="\"C:\abc\"'; //notice the inside double quotes are escaped double quotes.
Pattern p= Pattern.compile("\"(.+)\"");
Matcher m=p.matcher(s);
if(m.matches()){....}
Result====:
m.groupCount()=1,
m.group(0)="C:\abc"
But what I want is C:\abc instead of "C:\abc". I am also confused about the group number. If group(0) matches the whole string implicitly, group(1) should represent the subgroup (.+) in the above example, right? Thanks.

Hi,
You probably have another error in your code.
Execute this.
class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String s= "\"C:\\abc\"";
        Pattern p= Pattern.compile("\"(.+)\"");
        Matcher m=p.matcher(s);
        if(m.matches()){
            System.out.println(m.groupCount());
            System.out.println(m.group(0));
            System.out.println(m.group(1));
}It prints
1
"C:\abc"
C:\abc/Kaj

How to escape the double quote in URL

Hi,
I know that using backslash we can escape the ',' while sending the data between pages using URL.
Can any body please help me how to escape the double quotes.
Thanks a lot.

Thanks again for the reply and now I am able to encrypt and decrypt my document number... one more question please : will it be possible to chnage the whole URL to some basic message type URL for eg:
let's say our URL is "http://testdoc/post?mssg" and I want to change this to as "OPEN DOCUMENT" and when user clicks on ""OPEN DOCUMENT" it will still direct to the original destination that is our original URL.
I have been told that we don;t want to maintain custom table until and unless it's our last choice.
Thanks,

How to print/post double-quotes on reportserver

Hi, I am using rwservlet and cannot send double quotes. I can escape single quotes with another single quote, but double doublequotes do not work. I have tried url-encoding and html encoding, and even their combination, but report server just refuses to generate the PDF with a string with a double quote.
this is my URL:
http://rs-server:7778/reports/rwservlet?cmdkey&report=somereport.jsp&desformat=pdf&TESTSTRING=aaaaaaaa&destype=cache&ACTUSER=19
now I would need in TESTSTRING to have double quotes
PS: tried BI Oracle Business Intelligence 10g (10.1.2) and forms and reports 10g

PostScript printer - send it to the printer port e.g. LPT1: with a simple copy.
Non-PostScript printer - you'll need to buy a PostScript RIP, or perhaps use Acrobat Distiller to convert the PostScript to PDF, then print the PDF with Acrobat's API - see the Acrobat SDK. (This is not possible with the free Reader).

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
All steps have been preferformed within the same eDesigner and the same repository.
I have verified the XSD file with netbeans and can not see a problem with the file itself.
Any ideas to resolve this compile failure?

You may need to escape the default slash "\\".
I'd suggest importing the xsd into the jcaps xml schema editor and verifying that way and then creating the otd by node export.

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.

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
Add column pcl3_data_ind varchar2(1) to edc_tran,edc_log, edc_recreate_tran table

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.:

Double Quotes In LOV Return Value Being Replaced With &qu ot; By APEX 4

My company recently upgraded our development and test boxes to APEX 4.0.2, which we have been wanting for a while now. We discovered that since the upgrade some of our checkboxes and radio groups no longer work as expected. What I mean by this is that the return values being checked for were not correct, and on several occasions we received PL/SQL errors related to numeric to character conversion issues.
After debugging some it turns out that we have the following LOV query for one of our Checkboxes:
select
statement d,
stmt_id || '" title="&P20_FORM_STMT. ' || statement || '.' r
from
stmts
The return value for the LOV is setup so that it would return a 508 compliant checkbox. We were told we needed a title for each value of a checkbox or radio group to be 508 compliant. These titles must also be relevant to the selection being made, hence the substitution string being used in the return value.
What I discovered in all of this is that APEX 3.2 did not convert the double quotes in our return value to &qu ot;, but APEX 4.0.2 does. This causes the value of any given checkbox or radio group to look like the following:
value="1&qu ot; title=&qu ot;This is the statement that I have made."
And what we are looking for, and what APEX used to do is this:
value="1" title="This is the statement that I have made."
Does anyone know a way to prevent APEX from converting the double quotes to &qu ot;, or is there a way to insert an element attribute for each checkbox or radio group value that contains a substitution string?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I have a classic report, which has a count column that is hyperlinked. using the standard apex column hyperlink option. In that we have the option of passing values. I noticed that when I am passing a value which has "/" in it, it replaces the / with & #x2F;
I have created a application item which I am populating with the report column.
Because of which I cannot use that value in the report query.
Any suggestions?Yes. Don't pass string values in URLs. Especially where it is possible for these strings to contain URI reserved or APEX sensitive characters. This might work for a while but your application can be broken months from now by users including a "&" or ":" in data that gets passed as a URL parameter. Whilst it is possible to escape strings to make them URL- and APEX parameter-safe, it is much better practice to avoid the problem altogether.
Exposing data in the URL may also introduce security vulnerabilities. Also note that the maximum length of a URL in Microsoft Internet Explorer is about 2KB, which can easily be exceeded by throwing a few string values at it.
Only use discrete alphanumeric key values as URL parameters. In target pages/regions, use these key values to retrieve the required data using item source attributes and processes.
