FileInbound.xml example for OFFSET to XML transforming

Hi there.
In the B1iSN 2007 Guide - 04 Connectivity (chapter 6.6, in the FlatFile Connectivity part)  an example of FileFormat.xml file is given that explains how to rewrite the xml outbound file to an offset format.
It seems that the FlatFile Connectivity Package is also able to manage different formats (xml, csv, offset) for InBound files too.
Is this correct ?
Is there any documentation available explaining how to  write the expected
/com.sap.b1i.datasync.directory/ Ext.META.File/FileInbound.xml
needed to transform an offset format file to an xml file ?
Thanks for the help.
Regards.

Dear Motty
Thanks a lot for your return.
I checked in the B1iSN Guide - 04 Connectivity I have but didn't find any 6.5.2 chapter in it   
Since my guide is corresponding to 2007 version, I guess that the 6.5.2 chapter you are talking about is available in the new 8.8 version guide. Our company having just been accepted in the ramp up process for this new 8.8 version, I should be able to download this new guide then. I'll check and let you know.
Thanks again for your help !
Kind regards.

  • Data change after call xml transformation for RAW data type

    Hi,
      Can someone explain what is workarround or any help for below problem
    when call transformation is called for usr02 records, after xml string is generated is showing different data for RAW data type for example content of fields BCODE,PASSCODE etc get convert into different data
    for example: content of BCODE fields before xml transformation say -7F8087472FB996E5
    after xml transformation it display as f4CHRy+5luU=
    why is this so happening?  is this known behaviour after xml transformation or it is bug in xml transformation?
    thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    John.

    Hi,
    I think this is because RAW data is BASE64 encoded when using CALL TRANSFORMATION.
    Old post, but did you ever find a way to change that?
    Thanks

  • How to use 3rd party jar files for xml transform

    Hi all,
    Am using OAS9.0.4 and I deployed my .ear successfully.
    In my application am using 4 jar files for xml transformation. (xerces.jar, xalan.jar, xml-apis.jar,xercesImpl.jar)
    OAS has its own xmlparserv2.jar file. Its using this jar file for transforming xml data and not even looking for above mentioned 4 jar files.
    In opmn.xml, I provided these 4 jar files in to class path. Then also it didn't effect my output.
    I also tried as put these 4 jar files into j2ee\home\applib directory, but o result.
    Can anybody tell me where should I keep these 4 jar files in OAS and OAS should use these 4 jar files instead of its own xmlparserv2.jar for transforming data.
    Thanks in Anticipation,
    Regards,
    RK

    Add the Xbootclasspath variable in the java-options field. It will somewhat look like the following in your opmn.xml file
    <process-type id="<OC4J Instance Name>" module-id="OC4J">
    <module-data>
    <category id="start-parameters">
    <data id="java-options value="........... -Xbootclasspath^/a:<location of your jar files>" />
    Ensure to use th ^/a (append) signature

  • XML transformation for internal table

    Hi Experts,
    Here is the sample transformation code which is generated for a transformation I had created.
    <?sap.transform simple?>
    <tt:transform xmlns:tt="http://www.sap.com/transformation-templates" xmlns:ddic="http://www.sap.com/abapxml/types/dictionary" xmlns:def="http://www.sap.com/abapxml/types/defined">
      <tt:root name="ROOT" type="?"/>
      <tt:root name="ZPAYLOAD" type="ddic:ZPAYDATA"/>
      <tt:template>
       <payload-data>
        <record>
         <rec-data>
          <tt:loop ref=".ZPAYLOAD">
            <DATA tt:value-ref = 'DATA'/>
          </tt:loop>
         </rec-data>
        </record>
        </payload-data>
      </tt:template>
    </tt:transform>
    Here I am passing an internal table with only one field which has three lines say 'Line1', 'Line2',' Line3' to the multi-line structure 'DATA' in the transformation.
    when I receive the XML structure from transformation, It looks as like below.
    <payload-data>
    <record>
    <rec-data>
    <DATA>Line1</DATA>
    <DATA>Line2</DATA>
    <DATA>Line3</DATA>
    </payload-data>
    </record>
    </rec-data>
    However I want the XML structure like
    <payload-data>
    <record>
    <rec-data>
    <DATA>
    Line1
    Line2
    Line3
    </DATA>
    </payload-data>
    </record>
    </rec-data>
    Is it possible to receive the XML structure like above in the XML transformation?
    It would be great, if you can provide the solution at the earliest.
    Thanks in Advance.

  • Custom xml transformer provider for xml iview template

    I have been trying to get a custom simple xml transformer to work, which will show up in the xml iview template.  I have seen the SAP Help docs and the recent weblogs on the subject.  I can't get this simple transform functionality to work.  I can get as far as registering my own transformer, however I get an error on the page when trying to use it: "Error while using XML iView, please contact your system administrator."  My understanding was all I needed to do was provide a xsl, a transformers.xml file, and a service reference in the portalapp.xml.
    All I really want to do is take some xml docs I created and display them in the portal.  I know that I can write a quick java app to do this myself.  However, I am trying to use the built in functionality of the portal (which it appears no one is using except for RSS feeds).
    I would prefer to have the output be htmlb from my xsl file.  My understanding was that I should create my own xml tranformer provider and then also use the XHTMLB --> HTMLB built in transformer.
    Has anyone been successful in trying to create their own xml transformer for the xml iView?
    I am wasting a lot of time trying to use methods in the SAP Help Docs, is it worth the effort to use the transformer method?
    Eager to award points,
    Sean

    Hi
    I have successfully deployed a transformer by doing the following:
    In PAR, in /dist/xml/XSLLibrary/Transformers, put XSL
    In /dist/xml, put transformers.xml file that describes the XSL
    In portalapp.xml, add registry entry for transformer and service entry for transformer service.
    If you want, you can send transformer PAR and I can look at it ([email protected]).
    There could be something wrong with the XSL; this would be more complicated to diagnose.

  • XML Transformation using XSLT

    Hi,
    I have a scenario where I need to perform an XML to XML transformation and I need to do this using XSLT mapping.
    I am using XMLSpy.
    Could somebody help me on this issue?Any weblogs that can help me on this?
    regards,
    Prashanth

    Hi Prashanth,
    You can do the xsl transformation in XMLSpy itself.First create your source xml file in XMLSpy by selecting file type as xml.After that create your xslt program file by selecting file type as xslt.
    Then you can use the xslt program for transformation of source xml into target xml by choosing menu XSL/XQuery->XSL Transformation.
    sample xsl code for an example:
    source xml structure:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <root>
         <header>
              <detail>
    Detail1
    </detail>
              <detail>
    Detail2
    </detail>
         </header>
         <header>
              <detail>
    Detail3
    </detail>
         </header>
    </root>
    xsl program:
    <xsl:stylesheet version = '1.0'
         xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform'>
    <xsl:template match="/">
         <root>
         <xsl:for-each select="//header">
               <idoc>
                <xsl:for-each select="detail">

                          <xsl:value-of select="."/>
                       </detail>
                       </xsl:for-each>
                   </idoc>
              </xsl:for-each>
         </root>
    </xsl:template>
    </xsl:stylesheet>
    target xml structure:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <root>
         <idoc>
              <detail>
    Detail1

  • XML Transformation Problem in JDeveloper 10.1.3

    I am trying to transform an XML using an XSL, by a Java program, which uses javax.xml.transform.Transformer.
    I have a Java project which has the above said program, where when i run the program, the xml transformation is done successfully.
    But I have a Web project created, where i have the java project's jar in the WEB-INF/lib. And, when i tried to access the same java program from inside the web project, I am getting the following error:
    XML-22000: (Fatal Error) Error while parsing XSL file (unknown protocol: c).
    Please help in resolving this error.

    This is from Metalink:
    Cause
    This is caused by a conflict between the Oracle XML parser installed by default in OC4J and the
    Xerces parser that the application was developed with. Under 10.1.3 OC4J it is possible to tell OC4J not to use the default XML parser for the application at deployment time.
    Solution
    1. Undeploy the existing application using AS Console.
    2. Start a new deployment of the application in AS Console. Click deploy
    3. On the Deploy: Select Archive screen, browse to your deployment war file. Click Next
    4. On the Deploy: Application Attributes give the application a name and click next
    5. On the Deploy: Deployment Settings screen, click the pencil "Go To Task" Icon for the Configure Class Loading option.
    6. Locate the shared library called "oracle.xml" (You may need to click "next 10" one or many times depending on the number of shared libraries you have) . For this row, UNCHECK the box for the column "IMPORT". Click OK
    7. Click deploy, then test you application.

  • What is default value of the javax.xml.transform.Transformer sys property?

    Hi all
    In my other thread "javax.xml.transform." last replied to on 17/04/05, I described that having & in my xml was causing TransformerExceptions when I attempted to apply a stylesheet to the xml.
    I've now deployed exactly the same xml, xsl and java on a completely different environment and have found that the error does NOT occur.
    This completely baffled me at first, but then I read the following in the API documentation for TransformerFactory: -
    "A TransformerFactory instance can be used to create Transformer and Templates objects.
    The system property that determines which Factory implementation to create is named "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory". This property names a concrete subclass of the TransformerFactory abstract class. If the property is not defined, a platform default is be used.
    I think that the key must lie in the system property "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory". The two environments must be using a different value for this - one representing a class that objects to & and one that doesn't. In neither case do I actually set this property, so my main question is what does it default to and how can I find out what each environment is using for this?
    I'm really baffled here guys, any help would be massively appreciated.
    Thank you
    Jon

    javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory is a real class implemented by someone. It looks at the system property to figure out what actual implementation to use. It the property doesn't exist, it uses the class that came bundled with the javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory class you are using.
    Here, for instance, is the javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory that comes with jdk1.4.2
        public static TransformerFactory newInstance()
            throws TransformerFactoryConfigurationError
            try {
                return (TransformerFactory) FactoryFinder.find(
                    /* The default property name according to the JAXP spec */
                    "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory",
                    /* The fallback implementation class name */
                    "org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl");
            } catch (FactoryFinder.ConfigurationError e) {
                throw new TransformerFactoryConfigurationError(e.getException(),
                                                               e.getMessage());
        }

  • Fatal Error and NullPointerException in Oracle XML Transformer

    Hi,
    I'm building a dom tree in memory with oracle xml parser. Then I transform the dom document into a string to send xml to the client. But I get an fatal error on calling transform.
    I don't know what could be the problem, because apache and weblogic parser works, an when I create a dom document with org.w3c.dom elements and statements then the xml document can't be invalid,
    because the document implementation would throw an exception if wrong nodes or something like this should be inserted...
    I'm using oracle xml parser 9.2.0.4 for java, bea weblogic 7.0 and win2k.

    What i mean to ask is, is the hierarchy to this structural level is attainable using either transfomation or any other alternative.
    Thanks a lot in advance !

  • Javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException

    Hi,
    I am deploying a bpel process and a bpel test to a remote oc4j, then running the tests via an ant build script.
    The tests are run fine and the results are created in an xml file, however the bpeltest task then try's to convert the xml to a junit report xml format and throws an exception when it can't find bpeltest-junit.xsl.
    The exception is vague and I don't know if its because it can't find the xls file our one of its dependancies.
    exception,
    [bpeltest] ERROR: 'File "" not found.'

    the classloader seems to want to make callbacks to the BpelTest methods in order to generate the xml file for junit.
    any help on this would be greatly appreciated,

    I'm having almost the same issue so I was hoping the xalan jars solution would resolve it, but even with the jars copied to the directory and renamed as instructed, the error still occurs when the ant bpeltest task tries to transform the test results into junit format. The error message I'm getting is slightly different but issue seems to be the same. The error message I'm getting is:
    [bpeltest] ERROR: 'null'
    [bpeltest] FATAL ERROR: 'Could not compile stylesheet'
    [bpeltest] javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException: Could not compile stylesheet
    [bpeltest] at com.sun.org.apache.xalan.internal.xsltc.trax.TransformerFactoryImpl.newTemplates(TransformerFactoryImpl.java:824)
    ...etc...
    BUILD FAILED
    C:\projects\jdev_user_home_10g\mywork\BPELTests\BPELTest1\build.xml:179: An error occurred while translating the test results to JUnit results.
    Could not compile stylesheet
    Please verify the XSL:
    bpeltest-junit.xsl
    The original XML results have been saved in... ...etc...
    Using filemon, I can see where the ant javaw.exe process is reading bpeltest-format.xsl but bpeltest-junit.xsl is never read from the file system (although it could be getting loaded via classloader from orabpel-ant.jar as previously mentioned.) Either way, it doesn't seem like bpeltest-junit.xsl is actually missing.
    The error message does not indicate what was null and the references passed to the TransformerFactory are controlled by the bpeltest ant task code so I don't know what's missing.
    Anyone have a clue what might be 'null'? Anyone know how to get it fixed? Anyone have a suggestion for a way to a dig up more context and figure out what's missing?
