XML to flat file conversion

1 Header line with column names from the XML document
2 As for 1, followed by a blank line
3 Header line is stored as NameA.headerLine in the configuration and is applied
4 As for 3, followed by a blank line

SAP IDOC XML to Flat File Conversion

Hello,
I have downloaded SAP schema through the "Consume Adapter Service" with properties GenerateFlatFileCompatibleIdocSchema = "true" and FlatFileSegmentIndicator = "SegmentType". I am trying to convert IDOC XML into a IDOC Flat File.
Though the flat file gets created it has a "/" at the end of each blank field which I do not want in the flat file. I see the schema has <recordInfo structure="delimited"...> which I believe should be "positional". I tried
changing preserve_delimiter_for_empty_data="True" and suppress_trailing_delimiters="False" properties also but did not help.
I would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks,
Tarun

Hi Tarun....
please check this property set this property GenerateFlatFileCompatibleIDoc is set to false

Praveen

Hi Praven,
couldn't you simply modify your target DATA type so it will be easier to handle?
For example something like:
<Header>
</Header>
<Record>
<Material>
<Number>..</Number>
<quantity>..</quantity>
<quantity>..</quantity>
</Material>
In this way file content conversion will be easier (easy)!

Sergio

Immediate help needed with XML Parser

I am currently running Oracle 8i and trying to use the XML utilities. Just to make sure things are working, I tried a very simple program. I followed the xslsample.sql code that was supplied by Oracle. Code is as follows:
declare
p xmlparser.parser;
begin
p := xmlparser.newparser;
end;
When the code executes, I get a PLS-00201: identifier 'XMLPARSER.PARSER' must be declared. Anyone have any ideas on what is going on and how to fix it? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. You can email directly if you wish since I am really under a tight timeline to get these utilities to work correctly.

Michael,
Seems to be some problem with privileges. XMLPARSER is owned by SYS. You will need to grant execute access from SYS to the user under which you are trying to compile the procedure. It might be useful to create a public synonym and then grant access.
Hope this helps.

Help needed with xml list

hi,
i need to make a list in which all the list items will come
from xml file. these items will also be clickable so that they open
a new respective hyperlink on click. i need something like
www.sponky.com ' s portfolio list. can somebody please help me? i
really need your help.
thanks,
gaurav

I'm hoping I understand what you're doing... I would probably
do it all in one frame and just toggle the .visible property of the
subcategory list after the first one has been clicked, but there's
no rules about how you do it.
Without being sure, I think what you may have done is put a
second "copy" of the category list on another keyframe, which
replaces the previous instance. By taking away the second copy it
should work. If that's not the case, then I'm stumped... otherwise
read on.
So if you have the category list in its own layer, just have
it in frame one, on frame 2 of the same layer have a frame but
not a keyframe. This will mean the instance in frame one is
still the same one when the playhead gets to frame 2.
And have the subCategory list on a separate layer, it appears
on frame 2...
BTW the .getSelectedItem() method of the list reminds me of
flash mx... is that the version you're using (curiosity only I
don't think its relevant, because its obviously working).

Help Needed with XML Attribute Access (Bold/Italics)

Hi,
I have a form that displays data in livecycle designer. When someone imports an xml file into the form in Adobe Acrobat it should be able to display some data as bolded and some italicized based on the xml file.
Here is the sample xml file
<Table1>
     <Row1>
          <Cell1 style="none">1</Cell1>
          <Cell2 style="bold">2</Cell2>
          <Cell3 style="italics">3</Cell3>
     </Row1>
</Table1>
And the output should be:
1 2 3
Can someone please help! If the xml file should be designed differently please let me know.
Thank you!

Paul,
Thanks for the help! I tried it out and it worked. One last question please. According to your explanation I added to the xml file the tags
<body xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xfa:APIVersion="Acroform:2.7.0.0" xfa:spec="2.1">
<p style="font-weight:bold;">2</p>
</body>
do I need to place this body tag around each number or can I place it in one location in the xml file?
Thanks again.

Help needed with layers and project files....

Hello
I am new to after effects so this might be a simple issue for most. I am having an issue with my layers not matching the files in my project window. I accidently deleted a comp file the other day so I had to remake a few layers but they are not showing up in the project window/solids folder. I have 5 layers on my timeline and only 4 files in the project/solids folder. Some of the files names do not match the ones in the timeline. Is there a way to create a new comp with the files that I have open in my timeline or to replace the ones in the project window? I started a project a few days ago, Im trying to make a few partical orbs dancing on there own path then they will come together and then creates a few smaller ones. Im at the point where I want to copy one comp to another or copy the layers over but the particals follow one light instead of the original light from its own comp. I think the file names in the project window might be the issue but I really don't know. Any help or comments would greatly be appreciated
Thanks a million

Layers on the timeline are just instances of the source footage. If you rename them on the timeline, that won't affect the number or naming of the sources in the project window. Toggle the column header in the TL to see which laywer uses which source.

Help needed with XML

Hi guys,
i was wondering if it is possible to copy data from xml file
into array and use that data to make search in some other xml file.
Since i coulnt get any help on my previous post am raising this
question. I have lot more to ask but right now this much only. :).
Thanks in advance.

Depending on the structure of the XML file, you should be
able to use E4X syntax to put required data into an Array, or
perhaps an ArrayCollection.
Then I would think you should be able to once again use E4X
syntax to search (filter???) the other XML file using the data in
the ArrayCollection.

Help needed with XML Schema Processor sample

I'm trying to run the sample that came with the Oracle XML Schema Processor (XSDSample.java) and get the following error:

file:/D:/java/xml/ORACLE/XSD/catalogue.xml<Line 8, Column 32>: XSD-2001: (Error) Can not create instance of: 'oracle.xml.parser.schema.XSDBuilder'
What am I doing wrong. I am running the sample unchanged.
thx,

Looks like unzipping the jar and making sure its in your classpath fixed the problem. not sure why explicitly having the xschema.jar in the classpath didn't work.

Urgent, Help on conversion: xml to flat file

Dear experts,
Here is the scenario, XML FILE ->XI-> JMS
In JMS recevier side, we use localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean to convert xml to flat file.
Transform.Class: com.sap.aii.messaging.adapter.Conversion
Transform.ContentType: text/plain;charset=utf-8
xml.conversionType: SimpleXML2Plain
xml.fieldFixedLengths: 5,20,5,8
When input source xml file contents are non-unicode, it works fine.
But when the contents contain unicode characters such as Chinese word, it works but with wrong length in the output flat file. It seems xi treat one Chinese word length is 1. Actually, one chinese word should take 2 bytes.
My question is how to make XI handle unicode characters with correct lengths while conversing to flat file.
Thanks in advance.

Jai Shankar
Thanks for your response.
I am already using the standard adapter modules provided by SAP:
localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean
Transform.Class: com.sap.aii.messaging.adapter.Conversion
My input file's encoding is UTF-8
"You need to change the encoding scheme according to your input file" , do you mean change the output file's encoding or else?
I can't find the article you mentioned: "Encoding schemes in XI", Would you please give me the link?
Thanks a lot.

Receiver CC File - Complex Flat File Conversion

Dear forum users,
I want your opinion about the feasibility of the content conversion described below using Receiver CC.
The structure of my file is the following
- A File header segment (FH)
- 1...N Business Object that is described by many segments
- A file footer segment (FF)
Exemple of business Object : Purchase Order :
1 Header Segment (POH)
N Item Segments (POI)
Exemple of file :
FH
POH (PO 1)
POI (PO 1)
POI (PO 1)
POH (PO 2)
POI (PO 2)
POI (PO 2)
FF
Is content conversion standard tool can deal with such a structure ?
Note that in the file created, the order of each segment has a big importance :
PO Items of PO 1 must be after PO Header of PO 1 but before PO Header of PO 2 !
I thnik the structure requested by converter described in documentation do not fit with my case :
<root>...
<nameA>
        <value1>value</value1>
        <value2>value</value2>
        <value3>value</value3>
</nameA>
<nameB>
        <value4>value</value4>
</nameB>
</root>
I should have :
<root>
<FH>
<PO>
    <POH>...</POH>
    <POI>...</POI>
    <POI>...</POI>
</PO>
<PO>
    <POH>...</POH>
    <POI>...</POI>
    <POI>...</POI>
</PO>
</FH>
</root>
Thanks very much for your help and opinions
Jean-Charles.
Edited by: Jean-Charles CARRET on Jan 3, 2011 6:12 PM

Thank you Stephan for your answer.
Firstly, could you confirm whether the "row" elements under the root tag are on the same level than other elements (POH, POI, FF and FH) or not ?
I just check the both following parts of the help documentation called :
- [Inserting MessageTransformBean in the Module Processor|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/57/0b2c4142aef623e10000000a155106/frameset.htm]
- Using the dispatcher : Example
For me, it is not clear.
1. Do I need to create an external class (XSLT Library for example) to manipulate my XML data before passing it to the standard Flat File Conversion tool ? (Here the manipulation would be to remove the row XML elements)
2. Where is located the famous "Data" directory in which I must put my xsl file ?
Thanks for clarifications.

Help needed with itunes

help needed with itunes please tryed to move my itunes libary to my external hard drive itunes move ok and runs fin but i have none of my music or apps or anything all my stuff is in the itunes folder on my external hard drive but there is nothing on ituns how do i get it back help,please

(Make sure the Music (top left) library is selected before beginning this.)
If you have bad song links in your library, hilite them and hit the delete button. Then locate the folder(s) where your music is located and drag and drop into the large library window in iTunes ( where your tracks show up). This will force the tunes into iTunes. Before you start, check your preferences in iTunes specifically under the"Advanced" tab, general settings. I prefer that the 1st 2 boxes are unchecked. (Keep iTunes Music folder organized & Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library). They are designed to let iTunes manage your library. I prefer to manage it myself. Suit yourself. If there is a way for iTunes to restore broken links other than locating one song at a time I haven't found it yet. (I wish Apple would fix this, as I have used that feature in other apps.) This is the way I do it and I have approx. 25,000 songs and podcasts and videos at present. Hope this helps.
