Generating XML Document by giving Object as input

Hi all,
I have to give some object as input for generating XML Document.Basing on the data in the object the XML file has to be generated.
Please give me your guidance in this issue.
Thanks&Regards
Madhu

Madhu,
You may:
1. Generate XML Document manually with DOM API
2. Use some complex lib like implementation of <a href="http://java.sun.com/webservices/jaxb/">JAXB</a> with ad-hoc control over format.
3. Use some simple library like <a href="http://xstream.codehaus.org/">XStream</a> with minimal format control.

How to validate generated XML-Document in Memory by XML-Schema?

Hi all!
I have the following problem:
I am generating a Document using the DOM delivered with Xerces 2.6.2.
Before I'll send the generated xml-document through network to another system I have to check with my xml-schema if the document is correct.
In the DOM-FAQ I found an "example" trying to explain how it should work. But with this example the problems begin.
I am creating my document with this method:
     public void createDocument() {
          myDOM = DOMImplementationImpl.getDOMImplementation();
          doc = myDOM.createDocument("", "documentData", null);
          root = doc.getDocumentElement();
          root.setAttribute(
               "xmlns:xsi",
               "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance");
          //          root.setAttribute("xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation", "myScheme.xsd");
          domConfig = ((DocumentImpl) doc).getDomConfig();
          domConfig.setParameter(
               "schema-location",
               "file:///d:/workspace/XMLProject/WebContent/WEB-INF/myScheme.xsd");
          domConfig.setParameter("error-handler", new EHandler());
          domConfig.setParameter("validate", Boolean.TRUE);
     }In the line getting the domConfig, it is getting differeing to the example: The example is like this:
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.DOMConfiguration;
import org.w3c.dom.ls.LSParser;
Document document = builder.parseURI("data/personal-schema.xml");
DOMConfiguration config = document.getConfig();
config.setParameter("error-handler",new MyErrorHandler());
config.setParameter("validate", Boolean.TRUE);
document.normalizeDocument();They get the DOM-Configuration from the document-Object, but my document-Object has no "getConfig()" and only after type-casting I get a getDomConfig()-Method to get the configuration.
Then I fill my document and call
((DocumentImpl) doc).normalizeDocument();When I run my Application I get the following error:
org.w3c.dom.DOMException: FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED: The parameter schema-location is recognized but the requested value cannot be set.
     at org.apache.xerces.dom.DOMConfigurationImpl.setParameter(Unknown Source)
     at xmlProject.createDocument(Convert.java:63)
     at xmlProject.Convert.main(Convert.java:154)I tried several ways to get the validation without success.
The next question is how I should refer to my xml-schema (which path) and where to place it relative to my jar I will generate, because I will have no webserver I could place it on.
Has anyone any experience with validating a document created and not placed on disc?
I have also another question to SAX: I read, that it is reading a document without saving it in the memory. I think this means that if I am validating it by SAX it will be read once and for parsing it will be read a second time. If I would transfer the document over an tcp-connection, I only have the document once in my inputstream and after validation it would be consumed I think. But what can I parse then? Or did I missed a detail with the function of the SAX?
Thank you for your help!
Yours
Christian

here is sample code which generates XML document:

I see the method w1.print(System.out) which shows content of xml to console. But how can I store xml to some String variable? Thank you in advance.
Jan :)

If there is a version of the "print" method that can write to a Writer, then:StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
w1.print(sw);
String result = sw.toString();But if you can only write to an OutputStream then:ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
w1.print(baos);
String result = new String(baos.toByteArray(), encoding);where "encoding" is a string containing the name of the encoding used to write the XML. Possibly you can control that via "w1.setENCODING(something)" or some other way.

Generate XML document

Hi,
My problem is about generating XML document. I'd like to be able to generate automaticaly (like what we can get at this kind of URL http://xdbserver:8080/oradb/USER/table_name) XML documents for any relational tables, I want the document being schema based and I want to store them in XDB in the repository.
I do not really matter at the time the way the xml is generated (I just do not want that it takes hours). Is there a way to do that with PL/SQL package or with a java classes?
Thanks in advance.
Vlad

1)I'm using this PL/SQL proc to create XML :
(table_name in VARCHAR2)as --generation d'un fichier xml basé sur un schéma pour la table dont le nom est passé en paramètre
qryCtx DBMS_XMLGEN.ctxHandle;
result XMLType;
begin
qryCtx := dbms_xmlgen.newContext('SELECT * from VLAD.' || table_name);
-- set the row header to be EMPLOYEE
DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowTag(qryCtx, table_name);
-- now get the result
result := DBMS_XMLGEN.getXMLType(qryCtx,2); --2 for XMLSchema (1 for a DTD)
--insertion de result dans la table tempo
insert into tempo values(result);
--close context
DBMS_XMLGEN.closeContext(qryCtx);
exception
when others then
dbms_output.put_line(TO_CHAR(sqlerrm));
end;
I saw in the doc that DBMS_XMLGEN.getXMLType(qryCtx,2) with the "2" was for schema but what does it do exactly, does it generate a schema against the table_name?
2)I'd like to put the result which is XMLType in a XML file in the server, is there a way to do it with UTL FILE?

New to XML, need to generate XML document

I have an existing application that uses an Oracle 9.2.0.3 database. An existing PL/SQL procedure generates a flat file interface using UTL_FILE. My task is to upgrade this procedure to generate an XML file and transform this XML file into different outputs (e.g. flat file interface, PDF file which I plan to use XSL Formatting Objects). My question is how should I generate the XML document from the PL/SQL procedure? Should I use the Oracle 9i SQL/XML capabilities? specifically xmlelement, etc? An if so should I also use UTL_FILE to generate the XML file? Your help will be appreciated.

Williams,
Do you want to generate an XML file from the data present in relational tables using PL/SQL ?
In that case you can use XML SQL Utility(XSU).
For more information on XSU click [url http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle9i/doc_library/release2/appdev.920/a96621/adx23xsp.htm#1008317]here.

Inserting PI into generated XML document

Can anyone tell me how to insert processing instructions into an XML document generated using the xmlcg generated classes? I understand that I can create a PI using the Document::createProcessingInstruction() method but how do I add it as a sibling to the root element? Any insight in this regard will be really appreciated.

Your question is not very clear.
Do you want to know How to insert an element into an XML document?
Answer: I can see you already know how to do it. You have added the element using addContent()
or do you want to know How to display the XML in a tidy format?
Answer: to view the XML in a properly formatted style you can you the Format class. A very basic way of viewing the XML would be:
   * Prints the Document to the specified file.
   * @param doc
   * @param filename
   * @param formatting
public static void printDocToFile(Document doc, String strFileName,
      boolean formatting)
    XMLOutputter xmlOut = null;
    if (!formatting)
      xmlOut = new XMLOutputter();
    } else
      Format prettyFormat = Format.getPrettyFormat();
      prettyFormat.setOmitEncoding(false);
      prettyFormat.setOmitDeclaration(false);
      xmlOut = new XMLOutputter(prettyFormat);
    try
      if (doc != null)
        FileWriter writer = new java.io.FileWriter(strFileName, true);
        xmlOut.output(doc, writer);
        writer.flush();
        writer.close();
      } else
        System.out.println("Document is null.");
    catch (Exception ex)
      System.out.println(ex);
}

Generating XML document

Hello, All!
I have some questions about XML in Oracle 9.2
For examle, I have a query such as:
select to_clob(
((XMLElement("MSG" , XMLAttributes('EXPOPR' as "FORMAT",
     '1' as "SENDER",
                         '2' as "RECIPIENT",
                         to_char(SYSDATE, 'YYYY.MM.DD HH24:MI:SS') as "TIME"
     ))) msg
from dual
MSG
<MSG FORMAT="EXPOPR" SENDER="1" RECIPIENT="2" TIME="2004.10.04 10:23:16"></MSG>
1) How I can get a full XML document from this result (add <?xml version ...> tag)? I know about SYS_XMLGen, but this function will add a <ROW> tag into XML, but I don't need this...
Also, I can use concatenation of strings, but it is not interestring for me...
2) How I can get the string without enclose tag </MSG>:
<MSG FORMAT="EXPOPR" SENDER="1" RECIPIENT="2"
TIME="2004.10.04 10:23:16" />
Thank for help.

There is a new function XMLRoot that will be released as part of 10gR2 for this. In the mean time string concatenation is the only solution..
The following works in 10gR1
create or replace function XMLROOT (XML XMLType,
target varchar2 default NULL,
data varchar2 default NULL,
CHARSET varchar2 default 'UTF-8')
return XMLType deterministic
is
tempCLOB clob;
tempXML XMLtype;
PI VARCHAR2(256);
begin
PI := '<?' || target || ' ' || data || '?>';
select xmlparse(DOCUMENT '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>' || PI || XML.getClobVal() WELLFORMED)
into tempXML
from dual;
return tempXML;
end;
In 9.2 it would need to be something like this
create or replace function XMLROOT (XML XMLType,
target varchar2 default NULL,
data varchar2 default NULL,
CHARSET varchar2 default 'UTF-8')
return XMLType deterministic
is
tempCLOB clob;
tempXML XMLtype;
PI VARCHAR2(256);
begin
PI := '<?' || target || ' ' || data || '?>';
select xmltype('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>' || PI || XML.getClobVal(),0,1,1)
into tempXML
from dual;
return tempXML;
end;

Difficulty parsing XML document into query object

Background: Using CFMX 6.1 to take an XML file exported from
MS-Access and parse it into a query object.
Problem: Of the 6 columns defined in the target query, one of
the columns is only populated in the XML file a very low percentage
of the time. When trying to populate the column for a record that
has no volume I was getting the following error:
Element KEY6.XMLTEXT is undefined in a Java object of type
class coldfusion.xml.XmlNodeMap referenced as...
To get around this I made this code change:
Before
<cfset temp = QuerySetCell(mcquery, "CuKey6",
#mydoc.root.dataroot.qTop1000
.Key6.XmlText#, #i#)>
After
<cfif
StructKeyExists(mydoc.root.dataroot.qTop1000.XMLAttributes,"Key6")>
<cfset temp = QuerySetCell(mcquery, "CuKey6",
#mydoc.root.dataroot.qTop1000
.Key6.XmlText#, #i#)>
</cfif>
The new code gets around the error, but when the template is
executed, columns that DO have values
show up as "[empty string]".
I am trying to figure out why when the record has a actual
value it is now overwritten instead of populated
normally?

Use XmlChildren[1], XmlChildren[2],... etc., in place of
Key1, Key2, etc.

Generating an XML Document from an internal table in ABAP

Good day to all of you;
With ABAP, in the R/3 system, I'm trying to figure out a way to accomplish the following:
1) SELECT a set of Purchase Order data into an internal table.
2) Generate an XML document, containing the above data, using a specific schema.
I've been playing around with function module SAP_CONVERT_TO_XML_FORMAT which has the following interface:
CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XML_FORMAT'
      EXPORTING
      I_FIELD_SEPERATOR    = ''
      I_LINE_HEADER        = ''
        I_FILENAME           = v_fname
      I_APPL_KEEP          = ''
      I_XML_DOC_NAME      = v_docname
      IMPORTING
        PE_BIN_FILESIZE      = v_byte
      TABLES
        I_TAB_SAP_DATA       = i_SapData
      CHANGING
        I_TAB_CONVERTED_DATA = i_XMLData
      EXCEPTIONS
        CONVERSION_FAILED    = 1
        OTHERS               = 2.
I'm uncertain as to whether or not the Export parameter, I_XML_DOC_NAME refers to some schema or definition and therefore have been excluding it. In doing so, the generated XML document seems to use the field name/type information from my itab for the tags.
If this function module requires an XML Document Name, how do I create one and where do I store it in R/3? If this is not the recommended solution, is anyone familiar with a way to load an XML schema, retrieve some data then have SAP generate an XML document using the schema?
Many thanks for any help available.

XML File/Document
If I create 10 objects and then I want to create an
XML Document
of these objects,is it possible to do this?
Ajayjust override the .toString() method...

How to generate XML from relational data : PL/SQL or Java

I'm new to Oracle XML and would appreciate some advice. I've been asked to generate XML documents from data stored in relational tables. The XML documents must be validated against a DTD. We will probably want to store the XML in the database.
I've seen a PL/SQL based approach as follows :
1.Mimic the structure of the DTD using SQL object types 2.Assign the relational data to the object type using PL/SQL as required
3.Use the SYS_XMLGEN package to render the required XML documents from the SQL objects
However, creating the object types seems to be quite time consuming (step 1 above) for anything other than the simplest of XML documents.
I've also seen that there is the Java based approach, namely :
1. Use the XML generator to build Java classes based on a DTD.
2. Use these classes to build the required XML
On the face of it, the Java based approach seems simpler. However, I'm not that familiar with Java.
Which is the best way to proceed ? Is the PL/SQL based approach worth pursuing or should I bite the bullet and brush up my Java ?
Is it possible to use a combination of PL/SQL and Java to populate the dtd generated java classes (step 2 of the Java approach) to reduce my learning curve ?
Thanks in advance

To help answer your questions:
1) Now, in 9iR2, you can use SQL/XML as another choice.
2) You can also use XSU to generate the XML and use XSLT to transform it to a desired format instead of using object views if possible.
3) XDK provide Class generator support to populate XML data to Java classes.

Generated XML doc file contains comments from MFC source code

Hello, in my project I use the option /doc to generate XML doc file from my source codes but unfortunately in the output XML file there are mixed also comments from original MFC source codes, see the part of generated xml file:
Is there a solution to ignore these MFC cpp files?
Many thanks
Regards
Petr Stejskal

Hi stejsky,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
>>In my project I use the option /doc to generate XML doc file from my source codes but unfortunately in the output XML file there are mixed also comments from original MFC source codes.
Based on your issue, could you please tell me how you use the option /doc to generate XML doc file from your source codes?
If you use the option /doc to generate the XML doc file by right-click the your MFC project->Properties->Configuration Properties->C/C++->Output file->set the Generate XML document files as Yes(/doc) like the following screen shot.
(1)If yes, since we could not reproduce your issue in mu side, so if possible, I suggest you could share me your MFC project so that we will further help you support this issue.
You could upload your MFC project to the OneDrive and then copy link here.
(2)If no, please try the above way to generate XML doc file and then check if you still get same issue.
