Faster way to read XML files using power shell !!

At the moment i have about 1000 XML files (ranging from size 15kb to 120kb), I have a powershell script which extracts information and writes all extracts to the same LOG file!!
It works well but am only concerned with the time it takes!! it took about 1.5 hrs to finish the script! Is this normal?
How can i speed it up, your inputs and thoughts helps!!
Reading XML using the following syntax!
$Inputfile=[xml](Get-Content $XFILE)
Script has only foreach loop! and no other conditions.
cheers!

For a small file it is about twice as fast. It gets faster as the file size gets bigger.

Reading XML file using BAPI I must use adapters .

Reading XML file using BAPI and then uploading that xml file data into SAP using BDC.
I cant take file on to my Application server I am getting the file dynamically from other file server and I need to use BAPis to read data from XML file.please tell me what should be my Import,Export and Tables parameterrs should be.
Thanks

Hi,
Import, export and table parameters for BAPI is required, without that BAPI will not able to collect the data from XML. What you need to do is write a Zprogram and collect the data, store that data in internal table and call the BAPI by passing required parameters.
Different Scanarios:
1) Before calling a BAPI write some other program which collects the data from XML and create a UNIX file. Try to get the data from UNIX FILE
2) If you see the XML tags, data will be in side that tags, try to get the data from XML tags and store that data in one SAP table. You can use the BAPI by fetching the data from table
3)Create a table and store the data in the table. Use the table in SAP to extract the data.
BAPI won't work without any parameters, you have to pass some parameters then the BAPI will return some values.
Hope i am clear.
Thanks&Regards,

Retrieve and Read XML Files using Oracle6i Forms

Dear all .. i have some problem here: How can i retrieve and read a XML files using Oracle6i Forms? What should i do? Thanks - ASAP -

Several ways - Pick up a copy of the Oracle XDK off of OTN. This provides Java and PL/SQL toolkits for dealing with XML files.
The PL/SQL one would be in the Database, so you might have to use the Java one of you need to do it on the Forms machine.
You can use the Java Importer in 6i to create PL/SQL wrappers that you can call from forms into the Java XDK APIs.
Or of course you can just use the TEXT_IO package to read the XML as a text stream and parse it in your own PL/SQL code...

Reading XML file from application server and put into internal table-4.6C

Dear All,
Is there any way of reading XML file from application server to SAP? I am using 4.6C. Function module SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING function module is not available. Please suggest.
Thanks and regards,
Atanu

Hi Atanu!
Simply use the XSLT transformation 'ID'.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <ls_result> TYPE ANY.
CREATE DATA lref_data TYPE (your_structure).
ASSIGN lref_data->* TO <ls_result>.
CALL TRANSFORMATION id
SOURCE XML xmlstr
RESULT result = <ls_result>.
"xmlstr" contains your XML file. Just read it into it via standard I/O operations. "<ls_result>" will contain your DDIC formatted content.
Best regards
Torsten

I am wondering if there is a way to validate XML file without using .......

I am wondering if there is a way to validate XML file without using the <!DOCTYPE... but pass in the location of the schema/DTD file as a parameter to a validating method?
thanks

None that I know of. The only thing close is to use the EntityResolver interface where you can modify the location of the DTD file before it's being loaded and parsed, but that requires a <!DOCTYPE ...> in the XML file.
Good luck.

Where can I find an example of a vi which reads a xml file using the Labview schema (LVXMLSchema.xsd)?

Where can I find an example of a vi which reads a xml file using the Labview schema (LVXMLSchema.xsd)?
�Unflatten From XML� is of little use in parsing because it requires the data type. So it seems that the user has to parse each data value, and then �Unflatten From XML� can help a little.
I would like to see NI provide a VI for parsing it�s own schema.

LabVIEW's XML functions are another way of saving data from controls and indicators that is in a more standardized format. If you look at the Unflatten From XML shipping example, it shows taking the data that you would normally send to a Digital Wveform Graph and converting it to XML instead. This data is then unflattend from XML and wired to the graph. Since you know what you wrote to the file, this is an easy thing to do. If what you are looking for is a way to look at any data in any LabVIEW XML file, then you are right, there is not a VI for that. However, I do not believe that that was the intention of the XML functions in the first place.
By wiriting data in XML, this allows other applications outside of LabVIEW to parse and recognize the dat
a. In LabVIEW, you would already know the types and can place a generic item of that type. The issue of knowing the type is that you need to know the type of the wire that comes out of the Unflatten function so that the VI will compile correctly. You could always choose a variant value to unflatten and then do some parsing to take the variant a part. Maybe this will help you out.
See this example for using the Microsoft parser for XML. (http://venus.ni.com/stage/we/niepd_web_display.DISPLAY_EPD4?p_guid=B123AE0CB9FE111EE034080020E74861&p_node=DZ52050&p_submitted=N&p_rank=&p_answer=)

Reading large XML file using a file event generator and a JPD process

I am using a FileEventGenerator and a JPD Subscription process to read a large XML file. The large XML file basically contains repeated XML elements. My understanding is that the file subscription method reads the whole file in memory which causes lots of problem for huge file size like 1MB. Is there a way to read the file size-wise or is there a way to read chunks of data from a large size file..or any other alternative. I would like to process the file in a loop iteration by iteration.

Hitejain,
Here are a couple of pointers you could try. One is that the file event generator has a pass by reference (filename) functionality which you could use so that you could do the following inside of your process.
1) Read file name from the reference
2) Move the file to a processed directory (so it doesn't get picked up again. Note: I don't know how the embedded archive methods of the file event generator plays with pass by reference.
3) Open a stream to the file.
4) Use a SAX or SAX - DOM combined approach to parse your XML while managing the memory usage inside of your process
There is another possibility which might fit your needs and it is related to the RawData object that BEA provides. If I understand it correctly provides wrapping functionality around a stream object, but depending on your parsing methods might just postpone the problem.
Hope this helps

Use jsp to read xml file

Gents,
I'm a XML & JSP newbie and try to do the following: I have a xml file which can be opened with a browser so that I can see data (let's say my cd collection). Further I have a xls file which makes the display a little nicer, with colors and so. Now, I want to have a jsp page read this xml file and I'm not very succesfull, while I spent hours and hours on Google, but nothing.
What I did so far, was:
- download & install Tomcat 5.5
- make a dir under webapps\mycdcollection
- copy my xml files to webapps\mycdcollection
- make a dir webapps\mycdcollection\WEB-INF
- make a dir webapps\mycdcollection\WEB-INF\lib
- copy standard.jar & jstl.jar to BOTH webapps\mycdcollection\WEB-INF\lib as webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\lib
Here are my questions:
- How should my web.xml in webapps\mycdcollection\WEB-INF look like?
- Should I precompile my jsp? If so, should there be a classes directory somehwere? How should I make my app know that there is a classes directory?
I'm sure I will have lots more of questions, but if you can get me on the way I'd be very thankful.

hi,
u can interact with xml while in jsp. we have jstl (xml) tags to interact with the xml files.
use the jstl and copy the jar files neede for the jstl in to ur web app folder. u need to copy jstl.jar, standard.jar, jaxen.jar, and optionally (saxpath.jar and xalan.jar) based on the versions of the jstl ur using.
mail me at [email protected], if u have any problems.
Here, are some urls' go through with this,

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!!!
