Generate XML without header tags in Oracle 9i Release1

I am a novoice to Oracle. I am using Oracle 9i Release 1.
I have a table "Attribution" with the following structure.
SQL> Desc attribution
Name Null? Type
REPORT_ID NUMBER
LABEL VARCHAR2(20)
VALUE NUMBER(25,10)
COLOR VARCHAR2(10)
The inserted values in this table are:
SQL> select * from attribution;
REPORT_ID LABEL VALUE COLOR
24 Allocation .025172879 996699
24 Selection -.03198432 FF9933
24 Timing .000016592 8B5A13
24 Interaction -.0148997 99583D
24 Derivative Effect -.00026146 CDCD00
24 Active Return -.02195601 638B45
24 Active Risk .031745116 800000
I want to generate an xml without the XML declaration row i.e. <?xml version="1.0"?>
Also I do not want the <Rowset> tags in my xml.
My generated XML should be like:
<set label="Allocation" value="0.4649000000" color="996699"/>
<set label="Selection" value="-4.3508000000" color="FF9933"/>
<set label="Timing" value="-0.0022000000" color="8B5A13"/>
<set label="Interaction" value="-0.4669000000" color="99583D"/>
<set label="Derivative Effect" value="-0.0184000000" color="CDCD00"/>
<set label="Active Return" value="-4.3733000000" color="638B45"/>
<set label="Active Risk" value="1.9901704500" color="800000"/>
where the value attribute should be equal to values*100.
Please help me in generating this xml.
Thanks in Advance

Thanks for your reply.
Essentially my requirement was to concatinate three sets of xml strings. The application which is parsing my xml requires the XML in the following format:
XMLStringA + GeneratedXMLfromMyQuery + XMLStringB
where XMLStringA and XMLStringB are static XML strings and do not change.
I have generated GeneratedXMLfromMyQuery as from the following query.
Declare
qryctx dbms_xmlgen.ctxhandle;
GeneratedXMLfromMyQuery CLOB;
Begin
qryctx := dbms_xmlgen.newcontext('SELECT label "@label", value*100 "@value", color "@color" FROM Attribution order by rownum');
dbms_xmlgen.setrowtag(qryctx,'set');
GeneratedXMLfromMyQuery := dbms_xmlgen.getxml(qryctx);
I can do substring operations on GeneratedXMLfromMyQuery to fetch my required XML and then concatinate it with XMLStringA and XMLStringB,
XMLOUTPUT := XMLStringA || GeneratedXMLfromMyQuery || XMLStringB ;
but was keen to know if there is any way by which I can generate GeneratedXMLfromMyQuery without the <?xml version="1.0"?> row and <ROWSET> tags??

When I try and insert this its fine i.e with ROW AND ROWSET TAGS in place
|<?xml version = '1.0'?>
|<ROWSET>
| <ROW num="1">
| <COLLAR_NO>9463</COLLAR_NO>
| <QUAL_CODE>Rifle (MP5</QUAL_CODE>

| </ROW>
|</ROWSET>
But with this output it gives with error
|<?xml version = '1.0'?>
|<COLLAR_NO>9463</COLLAR_NO>
|<QUAL_CODE>Rifle (MP5</QUAL_CODE>
|<START_DATE>10/1/2000 0:0:0</START_DATE>

This forum is for XML DB, which is a feature of 9iR2 and later. Questions related to using XML with pre 9.2 versions of the database should be posted in the general XML Technology forum

Generate XML Schema from Oracle Database

Is there a utility that would allow our team to generate XML Schemas directly from existing Oracle databases? Or do you have a suggestion on how to achieve this?
Thank you.

Hey, The Schema Processor is available in the Technologies section on this site. Just download it and see the samples. You will get the way for doing it. If you are having problems then just call me.
Bye.

Generate XML with tag names generated dynamically.

Hi Mark,
I want to generate xml in the following way using SQLXoperators.
But only problem is when i use the operator, the tag name should be supplied before in hand as parameter.
So it works well when the data for the tags are stored in seperate columns then its pretty simple.
But lets say the whole hierarchy of the nodes is stored in one table with ID-->PARENTID relationship and the text is stored in a column called description.
Now using CONNECT BY PRIOR i get the hierarchy and now based on the description value i have to generate the tags and then fill in the other details.
This is just a summary of what i want. the below sample has much more than that and actual data comes from more than one table.
But if i get the solution for what i asked before i think i can build the test of the thing.

In 10g there are other SQL statements besides connect by prior for parent child relationships.
such as:
CONNECT_BY_ROOTâreturns the root of the hierarchy for the current row; this greatly simplifies our query. (See below for an example).
CONNECT_BY_ISLEAFâis a flag to tell you if the current row has child rows.
CONNECT_BY_ISCYCLEâis a flag to tell you if the current row is the beginning of an infinite loop in your hierarchy. For example, if A is the parent of B, B is the parent of C, and C is the parent of A, you would have an infinite loop. You can use this flag to see which row or rows are the beginning of an infinite loop in your data.
NOCYCLEâlets the CONNECT BY query recognize that an infinite loop is occurring and stop without error (instead of returning a CONNECT BY loop error).

Generating xml from oracle 10g with BLOB image

Hello All,
I have employee table with id(primary key), firstname,lastname
and I have portrait table with id(secondary key from employee table),image (blob)
portrait table store images of the employees which are in the employee table.
I want to generate following xml output
<rowset>
<id> </id>
<firstname> </firstname>
<lastname> </lastname>
<portrait>base64formatted string containing image of the employee for the particular id specified in the id tag</portrait>
</rowset>
and save this xml as id.xml into a particular folder in the c drive and generate such xmls for each and every row of the emplyee table...
e.g. if i have 200 emplyees with id as 1 ,2 ,.....,200 and their respective portraits into portrait table; then I want to save these as separate xml files with the names 1.xml , 2.xml , .....200.xml inside a folder say : C:\temp...
Any help is highly appreciated

I was going to write up a longer answer, but then I realized this post contains pretty much all you need
http://www.liberidu.com/blog/?p=365
I like using XMLElement/XMLForest to build the XML as it gives you the most control.
In the first example on Marco's website, you would just use dbms_xslprocessor.clob2file to write each file out to disk with a CURSOR FOR loop instead of doing a single OPEN/FETCH/CLOSE. The cursor would return two columns, employee.id and the generated XML. The filename would be based on the "id" column returned by the CURSOR.
Assumption: The machine that Oracle resides on has the "C:\temp" directory that you want to write to. You cannot use this method to right files onto a client machine.
Hope that gets you started.

Parsing errors with CDATA tags using oracle xml parser v2

I'm using the oracle.xml.parser.v2 parser to combine a
generated xml document from a database with a static
xsl file to produce html. Within the xml document, there
are fairly large CDATA sections (500 lines) which happen
to contain javaScript.
Occasionally, I'm getting xml tags in the final html
document! It seems that the oracle parser pukes
on a certain type of data within a CDATA tag, and then
replaces an angle bracket (<) of a tag with a #60. This
can cause html tags being viewed in the document. At
first, I thought the amount of JavaScript within the
CDATA tag was too large for the parser to handle,
because when I split it up into 2 or more parts the errors
went away. But, re-arranging the JavaScript (String in the CDATA tag)
can make the errors disappear. And, if I
use the Saxon parser to manually combine the xsl with
the xml, the output is fine. If anyone knows that this is
a confirmed bug by Oracle, or any other relevant info on
this, please let me know.

Hi,
Your lucky, i've just finished a project that used the oracle parser extensively.
I think the problem may stem from your xsl. Although your cdata tags may be well formed, in the xsl you might need to escape the text again, this may mean that the xsl needs to print a further cdata tag around the data. This is because the parser (well the version I was using) strips the cdata tags before the transformation happens.
This is the probably the cause of the nasty html output.

Generating xml tags with stored procedure

Hi Friends,
I have to create a xml report using procedure .the code is given here to generate xml tags.
create or replace procedure sri_xml (errbuff out varchar2,
retcode out number) as
/* create cursor to fetch the records*/
cursor c_emp is select empno,
ename,
deptno,
sal,
job
from emp;
begin
/* first line of xml data should be "<? xml version = "0.1"?>" */
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output,'<?xml version = "1.0" ?>');
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output,'<per_emp1>');
for c in c_emp loop
/* for each record create a group tag <gemp_name> at start */
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output,'<G_EMP_NAME>');
/*EMBEDD DATA BETWEEN XML TAGS */
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output,'<empno>' || c.empno || '</empno>');
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output,'<ename>' || c.ename || '</ename>');
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output,'<sal>' || c.sal || '</sal>');
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output,'</G_EMP_NAME>');
end loop;
fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.output,'</per_emp1>');
end;
i run the procedure in the concurrent program with output mode as text and i got the xml tags as the out put. i have created the template using the data definition and registered them in the xml publisher administer but i am unable to get the out put when i run the concurrent request it is giving the message "AUTHENTICATION FAILED".
please help me to solve the problem and to get the desired output with desired template.
thanks in advance,
siddam

Hi Siddam,
Please post your query on BI Publisher forum.
There are number of folks who can resolve the issue u faced.
Please go through the bi publisher developers guide and then design the report.
I am not sure about the process ur following for report development...i think you have to create data defination and rtf layout and then attach it to oracle xml administrator responsibility.

Generate xml source file for Oracle Order Capture Print Quote

Hi,
I am new to xml and need to work on creating templates for Print Quote.
I am trying to generate the xml source file for which I enabled the report in system administrator and set the output to XML and assigned to Quoting Reports responsiblity. I then assigned XML Report Publisher to the same responsiblity.
I ran the report (Print Quote) and then I am trying to run the XML Report Publisher but I cannot get the request id in the list of values.
I am able to generate xml source file for other reports like Printed Purchase Order etc.,
The view output for the (Print Quote) report is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- 
<ASOPQTER />
How do I get the xml source file? Or are there seeded templates that I can use to create more templates? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Ravi

Hi, I am in the same position - did this issue ever ger resolved by anyone. I have done a few XMLP reports successfully now using the Word add-in, but customising the Quote output differs from other standard reports.
If you look at the data definition for Quote it is a 'dummy' definition and has no XML file attached. Does anyone know how I can get the XML format for the report output?
Also the template uses XSL-FO ?!?!?! rather than RTF - not sure how to work with this, the Oracle docs are not very helpful in this regard either.
Has anyone successfully managed to customise the Quote print report? Many thanks,
Roger

How to remove the header tag in the XML data ?

Hi All,
I am sending an XML data from SFTP to Proxy, in that I want to remove the header tag (first tag) from the xml, while loading the data. how to do that ?

Hi,
It is not about the thing that, whether your source is XML or flat file. If you dont want some thing in your source file , dont consider it and dont map it with your target structure. think that, your not getting the header in your source. What is the header here.
<Emp_details>
<Emp_Id> Employee No </Emp_Id>
<Emp_Name> Employee Name </Emp_Name>
</Emp_details>
<Emp_details>
<Emp_Id> 1234 </Emp_Id>
<Emp_Name> xxxx </Emp_Name>
</Emp_details>
<Emp_details>
<Emp_Id> 5678 </Emp_Id>
<Emp_Name> yyy </Emp_Name>
</Emp_details>
you have two fields under node Emp_details. What do u want to avoid here?

Reyaz

Generating xml from oracle table

Hi,
I want to generate xml form an oracle table and using sql developer, oracle express 10g, xdk forler is also unzipped under oracle express folder, still getting following error: code used
var g_clob clob;
declare
     l_ctx dbms_xmlquery.ctxHandle;
     l_clob clob;
    begin
      l_ctx := dbms_xmlquery.newContext('select * from scott.emp');
      dbms_lob.createtemporary(:g_clob,true,dbms_lob.session);
      :g_clob := dbms_xmlquery.getXml(l_ctx);
    end;
    /ORA-06550: line 2, column 14:
PLS-00201: identifier 'DBMS_XMLQUERY.CTXHANDLE' must be declared
Thanks in advance

Hi,
DBMS_XMLQUERY is a wrapper for methods from the Java class "oracle.xml.sql.query.OracleXMLStaticQuery".
The problem is that Oracle 10g XE doesn't have a JVM, so you can't use this package.
Use DBMS_XMLGEN instead, it provides similar functionalities and is more efficient (C-based) :
SQL> var g_clob clob
SQL> DECLARE
2    l_ctx    dbms_xmlgen.ctxHandle;
3 BEGIN
4    l_ctx := dbms_xmlgen.newContext('select * from scott.emp');
5    :g_clob := dbms_xmlgen.getXML(l_ctx);
6    dbms_xmlgen.closeContext(l_ctx);
7 END;
8 /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> set long 5000

Create XML element without closing tag using Visual C++

I know how to create xml element with closing tag (using WriteStartElement and WriteEndElement methods)
<tag id="1234">
</tag>
but is there a way in Visual C++ to produce xml element like this
<tag id="1234"/>
i.e. without closing tag?

Hi adamay,
Please refer to this thread.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8182245/create-xml-element-without-closing-tag-using-xslt
I think you could try the way of write your own class derived from XmlWriter.

Create XML in a Package under Oracle 9 WITHOUT Java

I need to produce a piece XML (VARCHAR2)... in Oracle 9, but we don't have Java installed [and won't].
I'm looking for suggestions on the best way to build the XML string. The XML is very complex, and not going be built from a single query. It is actually several result sets concatenated together.
Basically, I already have the data retrieved... What's the "smartest" suggestion on assembly?
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason

> Actually, I'm a PL/SQL, Java, C# Developer. Our DBAs are always nervous about
security. And the "extra" grants and rights necessary to use JAVA make them very
nervous.
What extra grants?
There are no special system elevated privs required to run a Java VM inside an Oracle Server Process servicing a client, wanting to parse XML.
> So in the interest of speed and time, I can't go there
Speed and time are not a mere function of initial development, but also of the usability of that result, and the maintenance and support of it.
I do not think it acceptable to cut corners during initial development for the sake of speed and time. Especially not when it comes to re-inventing the XML parsing wheel inside Oracle.
Bluntly put, I find that a bit idiotic.
In your shoes I would sit down with the DBAs and determine their actual concerns - as I'm pretty sure that it is based on ignorance and will not stand any real scrutiny. Worse case, I will insist via management that they do install the Java VM and file any security issues they have as an SR with Oracle Support for resolution.
One does not buy a car for transport and then insist that it must stand in the driveway at home, not ever moving, in case it may be involved in an accident on the road.
FWIW, I have worn the DBA cap for many years and I have no problems with Java being used in Oracle. And yes, there are security issues to be aware of and yes, these can be managed and controlled without these ever becoming a security concern. IMO.

How to append the declaration tags to generated xml using Xquery

Hi,
How to append the declaration tags to generated xml using Xquery.generated XML is like
<ROOT>
<CHILD1></CHILD1>
<CHILD2></CHILD2>
</ROOT>
Here I want to append the <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> and the result xml should be
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<ROOT>
<CHILD1></CHILD1>
<CHILD2></CHILD2>
</ROOT>
Can anybody help to do this.
Thanks
Mani

First assign this element to a temp variable
<ROOT>
<CHILD1></CHILD1>
<CHILD2></CHILD2>
</ROOT>
Now in XQuery expression create a new variable
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
$temp
