HELP:Miltiple nested level in xml file & Oracle 8i

Hello,
I have xml file with multiple nested level. How can I load the xml file data in Oracle 8i.
Thanks.

This is not entirely true as you can have object types as columns.
See the following example from the xsql-demo which selects from a 'nested' table. You can do inserts on this type of tabel as well:
DROP TABLE LOCATION;
DROP TYPE POINT;
CREATE TYPE POINT AS OBJECT (X NUMBER, Y NUMBER);
CREATE TABLE LOCATION (
NAME VARCHAR2(80),
ORIGIN POINT
INSERT INTO LOCATION VALUES ( 'Someplace', POINT(11,17) );
COMMIT;
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsql:query connection="demo" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
SELECT name, origin
FROM location loc
WHERE loc.origin.x = {@x-coord}
</xsql:query>

Help with XQueriyng an AWS XML file

--Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Beta
I am trying to query an XML file returned from Amazon AWS. I'm learning this slowly, and i think examples would really help . I'm reading and looking through the documentation " [Using XQuery with Oracle XML DB|http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e23094/xdb_xquery.htm] ".
I made an batch of 2 ItemLookup requests to AWS, which returned one item for the first lookup, and two for the second, which i think is a good example. I used a bogus account id (it's used for tracking) and a key pair which i deleted after using it, so it is the actual reply. It is too large to be passed as a literal, so i put it on pastebin. It shows a valid request. There are two levels of validity, one is no error, the other IsValid. Had there been an error, like a missing parameter, the following would be between the </Arguments> and <RequestProcessingTime> tags:
    <Errors>
      <Error>
        <Code>AWS.MissingParameters</Code>
        <Message>Your request is missing required parameters. Required parameters include ItemId.</Message>
      </Error>
    </Errors>Meaning, first the XML document must be checked for the Errors tag; second, the IsValid element must be True; third, actual data can be perused. The Errors tag mean there may be multiple errors. The IsValid is per Items (not Item). Then individual details may be grabbed, such as ListPrice.
I'm guessing XQuery is the right way to go here, using XMLTABLE to create records to be queried. Here is what i have so far:
SELECT
FROM
     XMLTABLE
      XMLNAMESPACES(DEFAULT 'http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/2011-08-01'),
      '/ItemLookupResponse/OperationRequest/Errors/Error,
     for $Error in /ItemLookupResponse/OperationRequest/Errors/Error
       return
          <Error>
           $Error/Code,
           $Error/Message
          </Error>,
      for $Item in /ItemLookupResponse/Items
       return
          <Item>
           $Item/Request/IsValid
          </Item>'
      PASSING
          (code to get XML document: e.g. ItemLookup('036500101794', 'UPC', 'OfficeProducts', '5011363525517', 'EAN', 'Toys'))
      COLUMNS
          Id FOR ORDINALITY,
          Error_Code     VARCHAR2(10) PATH 'Code',
          Error_Message     VARCHAR2(10) PATH 'Message',
          IsValid          VARCHAR2(05) PATH 'IsValid'
     );Of which the response is:
        ID ERROR_CODE ERROR_MESS ISVAL
         1                       True
         2                       TrueOstensibly, there are no errors, so the first record is the IsValid element for the first Items tag, and the second for the second. Now, i need to loop inside each Items for all of its Item tags.
1) Is this a good approach. I ask because this is really my first XQuery.
2) Is the for loop for Errors good? I am assuming it will only have a record if there is an error.
3) Do i nest for loops to get each Item in each Items?
4) How do i know which Items is being used when in the (sub) Item tag?
I would appreciate any help. It just hasn't "clicked" yet, and i am having a hard time knowing what to do.

OK, figured it out....The XMLTABLE does the join, so the FULL JOIN is simply not required:
Making the final code:
     WITH
          XML(Document)
     AS
           SELECT
               Amazon_PAPI.Get_Response(Amazon_PAPI.ItemLookup('036500101794', 'UPC', 'OfficeProducts', '5011363525517', 'EAN', 'Toys'))
           FROM
               Dual
     SELECT
          Items.Id,
          Items.Code,
          Items.Message,
          Items.Isvalid,

Help with Photo Gallery using XML file

I am creating a photo gallery using Spry. I used the Photo Gallery Demo (Photo Gallery Version 2) on the labs.adobe.com website. I was successful in creating my site, and having the layout I want. However I would like to display a caption with each photo that is in the large view.
As this example uses XML, I updated my file to look like this:
<photos id="images">
            <photo path="aff2010_01.jpg" width="263" height="350" thumbpath="aff2010_01.jpg" thumbwidth="56"
               thumbheight="75" pcaption="CaptionHere01"></photo>
            <photo path="aff2010_02.jpg" width="350" height="263" thumbpath="aff2010_02.jpg" thumbwidth="75"
               thumbheight="56" pcaption="CaptionHere02"></photo>
            <photo path="aff2010_03.jpg" width="350" height="263" thumbpath="aff2010_03.jpg" thumbwidth="75"
               thumbheight="56" pcaption="CaptionHere03"></photo>
</photos>
The images when read into the main file (index.asp) show the images in the thumbnail area and display the correct image in the picture pain. Since I added the pcaption field to the XML file, how do I get it to display? The code in my index.html file looks like this:

rest of the code here:
        <div id="previews">
            <div id="controls">
                <ul id="transport">
                    <li><a href="#" class="previousBtn" title="Previous">Previous</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="playBtn" title="Play/Pause" id="playLabel"><span class="playLabel">Play</span><span class="pauseLabel">Pause</span></a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="nextBtn" title="Next">Next</a></li>
                </ul>
            </div>
            <div id="thumbnails" spry:region="dsPhotos" class="SpryHiddenRegion">
                <div class="thumbnail" spry:repeat="dsPhotos"><a href="{path}"><img alt="" src="{thumbpath}"/></a><br /></div>
                <p class="ClearAll"></p>
            </div>
        </div>
        <div id="picture">
            <div id="mainImageOutline"><img id="mainImage" alt="main image" src=""/><br /> Caption: {pcaption}</div>
        </div>
        <p class="clear"></p>
    </div>
Any help with getting the caption to display would be greatly appreciated. The Caption {pcaption} does not work,

Help with creating a new XML file from an existing DOM tree!!

i want to create a new XML file from an existing DOM tree
i used this code to create a new document:
static public Document createDocument(String fileName) throws ParserConfigurationException//,IOException,SAXException
          try {
               DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
               factory.setIgnoringComments(true);
               factory.setIgnoringElementContentWhitespace(true);
               factory.setValidating(true);
               DocumentBuilder builder =factory.newDocumentBuilder();
               return builder.newDocument();
//          handle exception creating DocumentBuilder
          catch ( ParserConfigurationException parserError ) {
                    throw new ParserConfigurationException();
          }then i used this code to transform the DOM :
public void exportDocument(Document document) {
          try {
               Source xmlSource = new DOMSource( document );
               Result result = new StreamResult( System.out );
               TransformerFactory transformerFactory =
                    TransformerFactory.newInstance();
               Transformer transformer =transformerFactory.newTransformer();
               transformer.setOutputProperty( "indent", "yes" );
               transformer.transform( xmlSource, result );
       //then catching the exceptions
But the file was not created and i didn't find where can i specify the DTD that the XML file should use and where can i enter the name of the XML file itself
Another questoin can i write a DTD file dynamically during the execution of the program??

Help: DTD only partially validating XML file

Following are a small XML file I wrote and its accompagning DTD:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE userSettings SYSTEM "userSettings.dtd">
<userSettings>
<pref name = "language" type = "string" value="EN" />
<pref name = "defaultfont" type = "string" value = "Arial" />
<pref name = "defaultPageWidth" type = "number" value = "595" />
<pref name = "defaultPageHeight" type = "number" value = "841" />
</userSettings>DTD:
<!ELEMENT userSettings (pref+)>
<!ELEMENT pref EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST pref
          name     CDATA          #REQUIRED
          type     (string | number)     #REQUIRED
          value     CDATA          #REQUIRED
>So the attribute "type" of the element "pref" can only be either a number or a string. But if i write "sting" for example, the DTD does not issue an error. I know the DTD is working since changing the root element for instance does generate errors.
Anyone has a clue to why is my DTD only partially validating my XML file?

        System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}Result:
Value "sting" is not one of the enumerated values for this attribute.

Step 6. Created an interface and made DEPART from step 4 as target
and Departments from step 5 as source.
Step 7. Staging area is different to the target.
step 8. modified the IKM SQL Control Append to write to a file
create xmlfile #filename from schema DEPART
Step 9. Changed the DEPART PK Column in the TARGET to 0
Step 10. File is created.
Problem:
1. When i view the file it has all the departments but the employees are also displayed eventhough i haven't done the mapping.
2. All the employees are listed under every department.
Please help as i have tried everything. I know i am missing something somewhere.
Thanks a lot for reading it.

Hi Alvindar,
Thanks u posted good issue,
Can u clarify this about how your issue got ressolved. I am also trying with same XML as you have pasted here. I have following doubts.
While setting up XML data server the ro option i have deleted as defalut value is false which allows both read/write & its look like this
jdbc:snps:xml?f=../demo/XML/EMPDEPT.xml&s=SCH_EMPDEPT.
I have mapped and written create XML commands in commit section of IKM which looks like this :CREATE XMLFILE #ExportXMLFileLoc FROM SCHEMA SCH_FLDEPT
created the interface and executed,it went through fine,4 rows data transformed into target xml data store,file is generated in the given path .
But in the generated file is same as which have EMPDEPT.xml with data change,but in the target xml data store depart i am able to view newly inserted records.
i want generate an output xml for each of the target of the XML data store, how we can do that please explain me.
this is my xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<REQUEST>
<DEPART>
<DEPARTMENT_ID>10</DEPARTMENT_ID>
<DEPARTMENT_NAME>Admin</DEPARTMENT_NAME>
<MANAGER_ID>200</MANAGER_ID>
<LOCATION_ID>1700</LOCATION_ID>

OIA - Importing nested entitlements using XML file

Hi,
I am looking for some information on importing nested entitlements (like RACF information) into OIA. From what I gather sofar, looks like I have to use XML to import nested entitlements. But sofar, I have no luck finding any documentation on how to go about it.
If anybody has any information that you can share, that would be great.
Thank you

Loading xml file using owb

Hi Gurus,
I am new to owb and as per requirement we need to load xml files into oracle table using owb.
below is the xml file:
<bookstore>
<book category="COOKING">
<title lang="en">Everyday Italian</title>
<author>Giada De Laurentiis</author>
<year>2005</year>
<price>30.00</price>
</book>
<book category="CHILDREN">
<title lang="en">Harry Potter</title>
<author>J K. Rowling</author>

<author>Erik T. Ray</author>
<year>2003</year>
<price>39.95</price>
</book>
</bookstore>
please help me in loading above xml file using owb.

You can leverage the XML SQL functions to extract from XML using the database, see the blog post below;
https://blogs.oracle.com/warehousebuilder/entry/leveraging_xdb
For example to extract information from your XML document the following SQL can be generated from OWB;
select extractValue(value(s), '/book/author'),
extractValue(value(s), '/book/year'),
extractValue(value(s), '/book/price') from
( select XMLType('<bookstore>
+<book category="COOKING">+
+<title lang="en">Everyday Italian</title>+
+<author>Giada De Laurentiis</author>+
+<year>2005</year>+
+<price>30.00</price>+
+</book>+
+<book category="CHILDREN">+

Tree component and loading xml files into text field

Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my issue....
I am making a simple self help application. I have a tree component that loads the different catagories and topics for my help app dynamically via an xml file...no issues there.
I then want it so that when the user cliecks on the actual topic that the TextArea component will load the info from another xml file using the name of the topic as the name of the xml file to make it that much easier for anyone to maintain this program.
So far the code i have is this.
myTreeListener.change = function(eventObject)
    var theSelectedNode = eventObject.target.selectedNode;
    var theSelectedNodeLabel = theSelectedNode.attributes.label;
    topicTextArea.text +=
I am a little fuzzy when it comes to loading the xml file in. Should i be loading html instead of xml is my other question as well?
Thanks in advance for your help
FG

Check out the Oracle XDB Developer's Guide, Chapter 3. There is an example of using BFileName function to load the xml files from a directory object created using create or replace directory. It works really well.

SAX: How to create new XML file using SAX parser

Hi,
Please anybody help me to create a XML file using the Packages in the 5.0 pack of java. I have successfully created it reading the tag names and values from database using DOM but can i do this using SAX.
I am successful to read XML using SAX, now i want to create new XML file for some tags and its values using SAX.
How can i do this ?
Sachin Kulkarni

SAX is a parser, not a generator.Well,
you can use it to create an XML file too. And it will take care of proper encoding, thus being much superior to a normal textwriter:
See the following code snippet (out is a OutputStream):
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(out);
      StreamResult streamResult = new StreamResult(pw);
      SAXTransformerFactory tf = (SAXTransformerFactory) TransformerFactory.newInstance();
      //      SAX2.0 ContentHandler.
      TransformerHandler hd = tf.newTransformerHandler();
      Transformer serializer = hd.getTransformer();
      serializer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING, "UTF-8");//
      serializer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.DOCTYPE_SYSTEM,"pdfBookmarks.xsd");
      serializer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.DOCTYPE_SYSTEM,"http://schema.inplus.de/pdf/1.0");
      serializer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.METHOD,"xml");
      serializer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, "yes");
      hd.setResult(streamResult);
      hd.startDocument();
      //Get a processing instruction
      hd.processingInstruction("xml-stylesheet","type=\"text/xsl\" href=\"mystyle.xsl\"");
      AttributesImpl atts = new AttributesImpl();
      atts.addAttribute("", "", "someattribute", "CDATA", "test");
      atts.addAttribute("", "", "moreattributes", "CDATA", "test2");
       hd.startElement("", "", "MyTag", atts);
String curTitle = "Something inside a tag";
          hd.characters(curTitle.toCharArray(), 0, curTitle.length());
    hd.endElement("", "", "MyTag");
      hd.endDocument();
You are responsible for proper nesting. SAX takes care of encoding.

Difference in registering versus not registering an XSD with xml files

SQL> select * from v$version ;
BANNER
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 11.1.0.7.0 - Production
CORE 11.1.0.7.0 Production
TNS for 64-bit Windows: Version 11.1.0.7.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 11.1.0.7.0 - Production
With the help of members of this forum, I have been able to successfully register an XSD, save xml files into tables with xmltype columns, and select data from the xml files. For this I am very grateful.
Forgive me not knowing this but, I can currently do these two things.
1. Register an XSD and create a table with an xmltype column based off of this XSD. Insert xml into this table that matches the format of the xsd.
2. Insert an xml document into a table with an xmltype column without registering it's corresponding XSD and then select data from this table too.
Is there a performance benefit to registering the XSD the xml file is based off of, when it comes to inserting into the table or selecting data from the tables after the insert ?
The xml files we insert could be anywhere from 1MB to beyond 500MB+ in size, as it depends on the amount of audit data generated. Is there a sweet spot as to how big or small you would keep the size of the xml files to avoid performance issues. If we need to do an audit in the future we would be inserting all the generated xml files into a table and run selects on that table. This data could be anywhere from a day's worth to everything from the time the system went live.
We want to avoid any over head associated with XSDs if they do hinder performance.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Wally

The xml files we insert could be anywhere from 1MB to beyond 500MB+ in size, as it depends on the amount of audit data generated.Schema-based XMLType (aka Object-Relational or structure storage) is exactly what you need in this case.
- When you register a schema within the database, Oracle automatically creates a set of object types, collections and tables that map the XML structure to the SQL data model.
- When you insert an XML instance document in the schema-based table, the XML content is then stored in the underlying relational structure.
- When you issue queries against the XMLType table, for example using XQuery and XMLTable, Oracle automatically rewrites the query to access the relational objects where the data resides. This process results in very efficient queries whose performance compares to queries against regular tables. The Object-Relational structure also supports indexing.
The documentation has whole chapters about it :

Create XML file from ABAP with SOAP Details

Hi,
I am new to XML and I am not familiar with JAVA or Web Service. I have searched in SDN and googled for a sample program for creating XML document from ABAP with SOAP details. Unfortunately I couldn't find anything.
I have a requirement for creating an XML file from ABAP with SOAP details. I have the data in the internal table. There is a Schema which the client provided and the file generated from SAP should be validating against that Schema. Schema contains SOAP details like Envelope, Header & Body.
My question is can I generate the XML file using CALL TRANSFORMATION in SAP with the SOAP details?
I have tried to create Transformation (Transaction XSLT_TOOL) in SAP with below code. Also in CALL transformation I am not able to change the encoding to UTF-8. It's always show UTF-16.
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:sap="http://www.sap.com/sapxsl" version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
    <SOAP:Envelope xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
      <SOAP:Header>
        <CUNS:HeaderInfo>
          <CUNS:InterfaceTypeId>10006</InterfaceTypeId>
          <CUNS:BusinessPartnerID>11223344</BusinessPartnerID>
          <CUNS:SchemaVersion>1.0</SchemaVersion>
          <CUNS:DateTime>sy-datum</DateTime>
        </CUNS:HeaderInfo>
      </SOAP:Header>
      <SOAP:Body>
        <xsl:copy-of select="*"/>
      </SOAP:Body>
    </SOAP:Envelope>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
In ABAP program, I have written below code for calling above Transformation.
call transformation ('Z_ID')
       source tab = im_t_output[]
       result xml xml_out.
call function 'SCMS_STRING_TO_FTEXT'
    exporting
      text      = xml_out
    tables
      ftext_tab = ex_t_xml_data.
Please help me how to generate XML file with SOAP details from ABAP. If anybody have a sample program, please share with me.
Is there any easy way to create the XML file in CALL Transformation. Please help.
Thanks

Try ABAP forum, as it seems not to be PI related.
