Generating XML from RPD for a particular SUbject Area

Hello All,
I have one requirement to generate the .xml file from the RPD for a particular subject area.
Uisng biserverxmlgen we can generate the .xml file for the entire rpd. But can it be specific to a subject area and its related BMM and Physical objects.
Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Ambika

Hi,
Just open the rpd offline,
Go to Tools -> Utilities -> Generate Metadata Dictionary -> Execute
and then you will be asked to to select the target folder to save that. It might take some time if the repository is very big (but max 5mins)
once execution was successful, you will have a folder with the same name of repository. Select 'SubjectArea' in these folder where you will have all you presentation catalog folder and take only the folder which you want. Presentation catalog would be in extension 'PRCAT_SubjectAreaName0000'. You will have all the xml files.
Hope it helps!

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 generate XML from EBusiness suite ARXSGPO

Could someone tell me how I can generate XML from the EBusiness Suite Accounts Receivable report ARXSGPO.rdf I understand this report is called by a C program. I have tried changing the concurrent request to output format to XML the result does not resemble XML. Does anyone have any suggestions how I can generate XML from the ARXSGPO report?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark
the next release of XMLP will have last page only support. The problem is that at the template layer you do not know how many lines are going to fit on the page, so you never know what is going to be the last page. The only way around it for now is to specify the number of lines to a page and then check when all the lines have been rendered and then render the remit portion.
I have a sample invoice that does the same, drop me a mail, you can work out the email from my name and the fact I work for XMLP Im sure.

Generating XML from database

I'm a total newbie in XML DB and need advice on generating XML from database.
The situation is the following: there is a legacy web application which uses an XML document as a configuration file. This document conforms to some well-defined schema. For instance:
<config>
     <title value="TITLE" />
     <subtitle value="SUBTITLE" />
     <style url="default.css" />
     <widgets>
          <widget id="1" opened="true" />
          <widget id="2" opened="false" />
     </widgets>
</config>
It contains portions of static data which are common for all users as well as dynamic personal data.
Dynamic data comes from two sources:
1) security considerations (for instance, not all widgets are available for some users) - thus the "master" configuration content must be filtered, but not otherwise modified;
2) user preferences (for instance, user can set widget2 to be opened by default) - thus values of some attributes must be different for each user. When the user saves her preferences, the entire document with new values is posted back to server.
We want to try to store user preferences, apply security and generate personalized configuration documents using XML DB.
So we need advice on storage models and generation procedures - which should be more efficient and easy to support or extend.
Please note, that there is no requirement to actually store data as XML.
Thanks in advance!
P.S.: Sorry for the incomplete initial post.

Generate XML from tree

I am trying to generate XML from a JTree. Does anyone know how I would go about it? I have been looking on google for examples but I can't find anything that would help.

Have a method that takes a Node as its parameter. (I'm supposing you want each tree node to map to an element, but you didn't give any details.) Generate the opening tag for the element. Then for each child of the Node, pass the child to this same method recursively. Finally, generate the closing tag for the element.
To get things started, call that method and pass it the root node of the tree.

How to add doctype when generating XML from an arbitrary data structure

I was reading SUN's tutorial "Working with XML - PART IV: Using XSLT". Inside this tutorial, in 3, it talks about how to generate XML from an arbitrary data structure making use of a XMLReader and a Transformer. The example only shows adding elements. Is there a way to add DTD information in the XML generated, i.e. <!DOCTYPE ... >? What APIs can I use?
Thanks,
Alex

The simplest way seems to me is to use a XSL file for that. The <xsl:output> attributes doctype-system and doctype-public generate the DTD declaration <!DOCTYPE YOUR_ROOT SYSTEM "yourDTDfile.dtd"> and <!DOCTYPE YOUR_ROOT PUBLIC "yourDTDfile.dtd">, respectively.
When calling transformerInstance.transform() the XSLT processor performs the identity transformation - it just copies elements, attributes, content, processing instructions and comments to the result stream.
If you're using an xsl file for your transformation already, simply add <xsl:output doctype-system="yourDTDfile.dtd"/> to your existing XSL file.
If you're only using the identity transformation you'd need to change the line of code where you obtain the transformer instance from the TransformerFactory to:
t_factory.newTransformer(new StreamSource("test.xsl"));
and use this as test.xsl:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
   <xsl:output doctype-system="yourDTDfile.dtd"/>
   
   <xsl:template match="*|@*|comment()|processing-instruction()|text()">
      <xsl:copy>
         <xsl:apply-templates select="*|@*|comment()|processing-instruction()|text()"/>
      </xsl:copy>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>Good luck.

Why it's so inefficient to generate XML from SQL queries?

I am learning to use Oracle9i XML DB to generate XML document using SQL queries. According to the document, there are multiple ways to do it (SQLX, DBMS_XMLGEN, SYS_XMLGEN, XSU). I am using SQLX to do it, but find it's so inefficient. Could someone point out what could be the problem?
I generate XML from TPC-H database, using the query as shown below. The indexes and primary key/foreign keys are created and specified. The system is Pentium IV 2GHz, Linux 2.4.18 with 512MB memory and 1GB swap. With database size 5MB, it spends about 300 seconds (TKPROF result) to generate the XML document. But for 10MB TPCH database, I cannot get the xml document after a long time. I find that all almost physical memory are used up by it. Therefore I stop it.
It seems that nested-loop join is used to evaluate the query, therefore it's very inefficient. I don't know whether there is a efficient way to do it.
Wish to get your help. Thank you very much!

Tim,
Oracle Reports was the orginal way to do this in an Oracle Apps environment. However, the XML Publisher team built a tool called data templates to do this as well. You can read several articles on how to use data templates on the XMLP blog. Here's the first arcticle in a series: http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2006/11/08#a127.

Generating XMLs from CSVs using DOM parser......

Hi,
I am trying to generate XMLs from CSV files using DOM parser. XMLs are getting generated but the problem is that i am using Encoding "ISO-8859-1" but XMLs are getting generated in UTF-8 encoding.
Please refer to the code below and advice. (where are the code tags gone ????? )
Source domSource = new DOMSource(document);
ByteArrayOutputStream xmlStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
Result result = new StreamResult(xmlStream);
Transformer transformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
transformer.transform(domSource, result);
xmlStream.close();
generatedXml = new String(xmlStream.toByteArray(), "*ISO-8859-1*");

Use transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING, "ISO-8859-1") to specify the character set.

Generating XML from SQL queries and saving to an xml file?

Hi there,
I was wondering if somebody could help with regards to the following:
Generating XML from SQL queries and saving to a xml file?
We want to have a procedure(PL/SQL) that accepts an order number as an input parameter(the procedure
is accessed by our software on the client machine).
Using this order number we do a couple of SQL queries.
My first question: What would be our best option to convert the result of the
queries to xml?
Second Question: Once the XML has been generated, how do we save that XML to a file?
(The XML file is going to be saved on the file system of the server that
the database is running on.)
Now our procedure will also have a output parameter which returns the filename to us. eg. Order1001.xml
Our software on the client machine will then ftp this XML file(based on the output parameter[filename]) to
the client hard drive.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanking you,
Francois

If you are using 9iR2 you do not need to do any of this..
You can create an XML as an XMLType using the new SQL/XML operators. You can insert this XML into the XML DB repository using DBMS_XDB.createResource. You can then access the document from the resource. You can also return the XMLType containing the XML directly from the PL/SQL Procedure.

How to remove Requirement of SL in Delivery for a particular Sales area

Hi Friends
I have customised supplementary order type, delivery type and billing type. In supplemntary delivry item category, the relevance for picking, storage location required, determine storage location, fields are unchecked. It works well with a particular customr and for a particular sales area, particular materials. In delivery, we have PGI and saved delivery. Delivry did not have picking and it did not ask for any storage location.
But when I am trying to create the same supplementary order type for a different customer and different sales area and scrap material, the delivery has no picking but its asking for storage location to do PGI. Pls tell me what I have to do to remove the requiremnt for storage location in delivery for this particular sales area.
Thanks
sangeeta

Hi Bhaskar
In VL01N, in delivery item, for scrap material, item category is coming as ZSUP. Because the item category for delivery is also maintained as ZSUP. In this Item category, the fields mentioned below are deactivated.
Relevant for picking
SLOC required
Determine SLOC
In material master for scrap, in Sales org2, item category grp is NORM, like all other material.
Thus storage location is not supposed to come in VL01n as a required field.
But in delivery item category determination, i did not find this item category zsup. But when I was making supplementary delivery for other materials, the system did not ask any storage location and supplymentary delivery is duly created. here we delivering from an order not SA.
Thanks
