Exception while unmarshalling UTF-8 encoded XML String, using JAXB.

hi folks. First of all, thank you for contributing to my queries as of now.
Problem statement.
- This happens when i try to unmarshall a webservice response, which is nothing but a simple UTF-8 encoded XML string in an soap envelope.
- 0xae is the register character: ®.
- My next step was to ensure that my code works without this character. So I removed all occurances from my XML. It worked just fine...
- So what do you guys suggest me to get rid of this problem?
- Any suggestion will be treated as valuable resource.
- Is there some kind of encoding setting with jaxb ?
An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0xae) was found in the element content of the document.
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0xae) was found in the element content of the document.

Not able to handle Special Character in Bpel using UTF-8 Encoded XML

I am using UTF-8 encoded xml for my application,but during conversion of XML from one source to other using simple BIOS java programme , i am not able to convert special characters like(Göblyös Tünde,Makaróni etc).All getting converted to (G�bly�s T�nde,Makar�ni etc).As a result data corruption occurred.Please let me know if any go across this issue.

Hi,
Possibly the data you receiving is not UTF-8... Have you check with the data provider?
Try with other encoding... like ISO-8859-1 for example...
oracle.soa.common.util.Base64Decoder.decode(zipname.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"));
Cheers,

Problem in parsing a xml string using dom parser

i want to parse a Xml String using a Dom parser......the parse function in dom parser takes only input stream as argument.......so i made the code as
InputStream inputstream = new StringBufferInputStream(XmlData) ;
InputSource inputSource = new InputSource(inputstream );
but saxexception is coming and also warning called
"java.io.StringBufferInputStream in java.io has been deprecated"
please help me.........

i want to parse a Xml String using a Dom
parser......the parse function in dom parser takes
only input stream as argument.......This is not true of the DOM parser in Java 1.4. So you might want to get rid of your old parser and replace it by something more current. Or perhaps you are using 1.4 and you just didn't read all of the API docs.

What my program do is to get the encoding of XML files and convert them to UTF-8 encoding files, while I need this "encoding" information of the original XML document thus I can convert...
After reading specifications and JDOM docs, the truth turns to be disappointed, no function is provided to get this information in JDOM level 2(the current released one), while it's promissed that this function will be provided in JDOM level API....
Thanx all for your help and attention!!!

Parsing a UTF-8 encoded XML Blob object

Hi,
I am having a really strange problem, I am fetching a database BLOB object containing the XMLs and then parsing the XMLs. The XMLs are having some UTF-8 Encoded characters and when I am reading the XML from the BLOB, these characters lose their encoding, I had tried doing several things, but there is no means I am able to retain their UTF encoding. The characters causing real problem are mainly double qoutes, inverted commas, and apostrophe. I am attaching the piece of code below and you can see certain things I had ended up doing. What else can I try, I am using JAXP parser but I dont think that changing the parser may help because, here I am storing the XML file as I get from the database and on the very first stage it gets corrupted and I have to retain the UTF encoding. I tried to get the encoding info from the xml and it tells me cp1252 encoding, where did this come into picture and I couldn't try it retaining back to UTF -8
Here in the temp.xml itself gets corrupted. I had spend some 3 days on this issue. Help needed!!!
ResultSet rs = null;

      while (rs.next()) {
        rubricBean = new RubricBean();
        cifElementId = rs.getLong("CIF_ELEMENT_ID");
                // get xml data which is in Blob format
        xmlData = (oracle.sql.BLOB)rs.getBlob("XML");
        // Read Input stream from blob data
         inputStream =(InputStream)xmlData.getBinaryStream();
        // Reading the inputstream of data into an array of bytes.
        byte[] bytes = new byte[(int)xmlData.length()];
         inputStream.read(bytes);
       // Get the String object from byte array
         xmlText = new String(bytes);
       // xmlText=new String(szTemp.getBytes("UTF-8"));
        //xmlText = convertToUTF(xmlText);
        File file = new File("C:\\temp.xml");
        file.createNewFile();
        // Write to temp file
        java.io.BufferedWriter out = new java.io.BufferedWriter(new java.io.FileWriter(file));
        out.write(xmlText);
        out.close();

What the code you posted is doing:
// Read Input stream from blob data
inputStream =(InputStream)xmlData.getBinaryStream();Here you have a stream containing binary octets which encode some text in UTF-8.
// Reading the inputstream of data into an
into an array of bytes.
byte[] bytes = new byte[(int)xmlData.length()];
inputStream.read(bytes);Here you are reading between zero and xmlData.length() octets into a byte array. read(bytes[]) returns the number of bytes read, which may be less than the size of the array, and you don't check it.
xmlText = new String(bytes);Here you are creating a string with the data in the byte array, using the platform's default character encoding.
Since you mention cp1252, I'm guessing your platform is windows
// xmlText=new new String(szTemp.getBytes("UTF-8"));I don't know what szTemp is, but xmlText = new String(bytes, "UTF-8"); would create a string from the UTF-8 encoded characters; but you don't need to create a string here anyway.
//xmlText = convertToUTF(xmlText);
File file = new File("C:\\temp.xml");
file.createNewFile();
// Write to temp file
java.io.BufferedWriter out = new java.io.BufferedWriter(new java.io.FileWriter(file));This creates a Writer to write to the file using the platform's default character encoding, ie cp1252.
out.write(xmlText);This writes the string to out using cp1252.
So you have created a string treating UTF-8 as cp1252, then written that string to a file as cp1252, which is to be read as UTF-8. So it gets mis-decoded twice.
As the data is already UTF-8 encoded, and you want the output, just write the binary data to the output file without trying to convert it to a string and then back again:// not tested, as I don't have your Oracle classes
final InputStream inputStream = new BufferedInputStream((InputStream)xmlData.getBinaryStream());
final int length = xmlData.length();
final int BUFFER_SIZE = 1024;                  // these two can be
final byte[] buffer = new byte[BUFFER_SIZE];   // allocated outside the method
final OutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(file));
for (int count = 0; count < length; ) {
   final int bytesRead = inputStream.read(buffer, 0, Math.min(BUFFER_SIZE, (length - count));
   out.write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
   count += bytesRead;

Exception while loading properties from an xml file

}The constructor is the one triggering the exception, so there's a problem loading the XML property file.

Message Mapping Problem with UTF-16LE Encoded XML

Hello,
we have the following scenario:
IDoc > BPM > HTTP Sync Call > BPM > IDoc
Resonse message of the HTTP call is a XML file with UTF-16LE processing instruction. This response should then be mapped to a SYSTAT IDoc. However the message mapping fails "...XML Parser: No data allowed here ...".
So obviously the XML is not considered as well-formed.
When taking a look at SXMB_MONI the following message appears: "Switch from current encoding to specific encoding not supported.....".
Strange thing however is if I save the response file as XML and use the same XML file in the test tab message mapping is executed successfully.
I also tried to use a Java Mapping to switch encodings before executing message mapping, but the error remains.
Could the problem be, that the codepage UTF-16LE is not installed on the PI system ? Any idea on that ?
Thank you!

Hi,
thank your for your answer.
This is what I have tried to achieve. I apply the java conversion mapping when receiving the response message - i tried to convert the response to UTF-16, UTF-8 but none of them has helped to solve the problem.
I guess that using adapter modules is not an option either as it would modify the request message, but not the response, right?

Printint XML string using XSLT mapping

How do I read the XML string using Http response/request?

When my HTTP POST action is perform, the action will return me a XML string as shown in the link, https://www.neteller.com/gateway/netdirectv4.cfm?amount=150.00&net_account=458415554241&secure_id=896365&bank_acct_num=6789&currency=USD&merchant_id=1234&merch_transid=1102&merch_account=john123&custom_1=test123&custom_2=test123&custom_3=test123&test=1
The above XML string will be send back by one of the payment gateway.
How do I retrieve all the attribute name and value from the XML string so that it can be stored in my database?
The XML string will be as shown below:

Error while trying to update the XML template using XML Publisher Administrator

Hello Folks,
We are on R12.1.3
I changed a condition in a report and trying to upload the new XML template using XML Publisher Administrator.
when i click the Apply button, it is throwing an error 'Bad Request'
Navigation : XML Publisher Administrator > Data Definitions > query the report
Click on the name of the report > click 'Update file' besides Data Template > Choose file > Click Apply
I am getting the below error
Bad Request
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
Now, i could not upload a new XML template.
Am I doing anything wrong.
regards,
Kris

Thank you Eugen and Hussein.
The problem is not with the template.
It seems to be a problem in that particular instance.
Uploaded it in a different instance.
However once i run the program, i cannot view the output as the browser window flashes and disappears.
My colleague says , it is to do with the trusted site to download something from the browser.
Can you please guide me on how to fix this ?

Appending Data in XML File using JAXB

I need to write the 50,000 records into XML file. But at a time i need to write only 1000 records into XML. How do i append the data into XML using JAXB.

I have tried but the data is written in the following way:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<Users xmlns="http://www.yyyy.com/umc/importer/jaxb">
<User id="101" xmlns="">
<username>gjhs</username>
<password>hdfhhdf</password>
<role>df</role>
<email>sdd</email>
<phone>sdfdf</phone>
<description>shkl</description>
<property name="ernnker" value="hkdfhk"/>
</User>
</Users>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<Users xmlns="http://www.yyyy.com/umc/importer/jaxb">
<User id="101" xmlns="">
<username>gjhs</username>
<password>hdfhhdf</password>
<role>df</role>
<email>sdd</email>
<phone>sdfdf</phone>
<description>shkl</description>
<property name="ernnker" value="hkdfhk"/>
</User>
</Users>
If i can eliminate the following lines from the above files then my job is done:
</Users>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<Users xmlns="http://www.yyyy.com/umc/importer/jaxb">

Compare 2 XML Docs using JAXB

Hello List,
I use JAXB for parsing and generating XML docs. It works well after some time to learn to use it.
But now I want compare 2 xml docs.
I think the equal function is the right way, but I can't find any implementation from this function in the generated classes.
Do I look right? Is it possible to compare xml docs with JAXB?
Any other hints.
regards Dietmar

Earlier this year, I needed such a tool and finally wrote one after not being able to find one. It was a lot of work. It compared two DOM documents.
In our case, we were testing a new server implementation to create XML result files from requests from our client. I connected to a new server and an old server and sent the identical input to both. I then validated the two results using DTD's (which is all we had) and then did a brute force comparison of the two Document objects.
To make things more difficult, there were some known differences. The new version returned a few new tags and attributes in certain cases. I had to avoid using these as a reason to declare a mismatch. Also, there were timestamps and URLs returned in the files I was processing, so I had to ignore these tags as well.
Another thing to consider is that attributes do not have to be presented in any sequence, so I had to compare in a non-order-specific way. I built two HashMaps, and first looked up each old attribute in the HashMap for new attributes. If I found a match, I removed this attribute from BOTH HashMaps, when I got to the end, anything lef t over in either HashMap was an orphan.
It was a lot of work, and my solution is probably not usable outside of its environment, and I don't have permission to release the source anyway.

Reading UTF-8 Encoding xml file sqlserver

Hi ,
I am recieving a xml file from a third party vendor. it is encoded in UTF-8. while i am reading it i am getting the below error.
Msg 9420, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
XML parsing: line 30117390, character 33, illegal xml character
the characters causing the problem are like è,Ö,è.
My database default collation is ‘SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS’
I am using the below query to read the xmlfile.
declare @xml xml
SELECT
@xml= CAST(x AS XML)
FROM
OPENROWSET(BULK 'D:\sample.xml',SINGLE_BLOB) AS T(x)
select
X.product.value('(ID/text())[1]', 'varchar(50)') as ID ,
X.product.value('(Name/text())[1]', 'varchar(50)') as Name
from
@xml.nodes('Students/Student') AS X(product)
how can i read the file successfully. any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

This issue normally happens when the XML file is not in the correct format. To save in the correct format open the xml file and click save as. Choose the encoding option as "UTF-8".

Cannot parse UTF-8 encoded xml files

I have been having issues parsing files that were encoded with UTF-8. If I save the file as standard ANSI and parse it I do not have the issues.
Is there a reason this can occur?
Here is the error I am getting:
C:\Home\Java\testbed\tmp>java RFKGenerator -in 4874.xml -xsl cl_rfk.xsl -out 4874.rfk
Applying stylesheet cl_rfk.xsl...
Exception in thread "main" ; SystemID: file:///C:/Home/Java/testbed/tmp/2.209_M_
4874.xml; Line#: 1; Column#: -1

at org.apache.xalan.transformer.TransformerImpl.transform(Unknown Source
at gov.nasa.jsc.odfxml.java.RFKGenerator.main(RFKGenerator.java:89)
As I mentioned before this only occurs if the file is encoded in UTF-8 so I am not sure if there is any extra steps needed when parsing these type of files. I am using the latest xalan parser and the xerces processor that apache provides.
If you need any other information please let me know.
thank you.

I found that the issue was I was using an older version of Xalan and when updated it fixed the problem. Also there are issues with parsing UTF-8 on win9x machines you should be on Win2k/XP to not encounter errors.
