How can I load this XML with sql loader ?

Hi,
Im try to load a XML file into a XML table:
Create table TEST of XMLTYPE;
XML file is something like this:
<!DOCTYPE list SYSTEM "myfile.dtd">
<list>
<item id = 1> lot of tags an info here </item>
<item id = 9000> lot of tags an info here </item>
</list>
I dont know how to exactly create an appropriate control file to my XML. All examples I saw in documentation are similar to this one:
this is an example control file
LOAD DATA
INFILE *
INTO TABLE test
APPEND
XMLTYPE (xmldata)
FIELDS
I dont know how to complete this control file. Can anyone help me ?
thank you!

Well I found this working code
LOAD DATA
INFILE *
INTO TABLE test APPEND
xmltype(xmldata)
FIELDS
ext_fname filler char(30),
xmldata LOBFILE (ext_fname) TERMINATED BY EOF
BEGINDATA
mifile.xml
mifile2.xml
mifile3.xml
the main diference I found is that when i use:
Insert into test values (XMLType(bfilename('XMLDIR', 'swd_uC000025127.xml'),nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8')));
tag <!DOCTYPE list SYSTEM "myfile.dtd"> is expanded
(I explain at DTD insertion and errors with long DTD entities
Now using sql loader the tag is not modified.
I dont know if is there any difference, between each case. did I lost performance?

    Huh.. Interesting. I went back to check these proceedures and found there is a difference between using the return key or the space bar as the action command.
    tabbing the blue ring moves the selection and then spacebar takes that action. The return key takes action of only the blue collored button.

  • Loading huge file with Sql-Loader from Java

    Hi,
    I have a csv file with aprox. 3 and a half million records.
    I load this data with sqlldr from within java like this:
               String command = "sqlldr userid=" + user + "/" + pass
                        + "@" + service + " control='" + ctlFile + "'";
                System.out.println(command);

                } else {
                    p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("sh -c " + command);
                }it does what I want to, load the data to a certain table, BUT it takes too much time, Is there a faster way to load data to an oracle db from within java?

  • How to load XML file to table (non-XML) with SQL*Loader -- issue with nulls

    I have been attempting to use SQL*Loader to load an XML file into a "regular" Oracle table. All fields work fine, unless a null is encountered. The way that nulls are represented is shown below:
    <PAYLOAD>
    <FIELD1>ABCDEF</FIELD1>
    <FIELD2/>
    <FIELD3>123456</FIELD3>
    </PAYLOAD>
    In the above example, FIELD2 is a null field and that is the way it is presented. I have searched everywhere and have not found how I could code for this. The issue is that if FIELD2 is present, it is coded like: <FIELD2>SOMEDATA</FIELD2>, but the null is represented as <FIELD2/>. Here is a sample of the control file I am using to attempt the load -- very simplistic, but works fine when fields are present:
    load data
    infile 'testdata.xml' "str '<PAYLOAD>'"
    TRUNCATE
    into table DATA_FROM_XML
    FIELD1 ENCLOSED BY '<FIELD1>' AND '</FIELD1>',
    FIELD2 ENCLOSED BY '<FIELD2>' AND '</FIELD2>',
    FIELD3 ENCLOSED BY '<FIELD3>' AND '</FIELD3>')
    What do I need to do to account for the way that nulls are presented? I have tried everything I could glean from the web and the documentation and nothing has worked. Any help would be really appreciated.

    I hadn't even got that far. can you direct me to where the docs are to import data that is stored within xml but that you don't need any xml functionality, that just happens to be the format the data is stored in? thx

  • Loading VARRAY's with SQL loader, direct path in 9i?

    Isn't it possible to load VARRAY's with SQLloader and direct path in a Oracle 9i database?
    /Magnus Hornstrom
    mailto:[email protected]

    Daniel,
    I appreciate your response alot.
    Now a follow on. You say that SQL*Loader is the fastest way to get data into Oracle Spatial even though the conventional path. How does SQL*Loader do this? Doesn't it use OCI?
    I just can't help but think that coverting my data to SQL*Loader format, and then having it parse it and send it to the database in some form must be slower than me just sending whatever SQL Loader sends to the DB myself using OCI. Am I missing something?
    The SQL Loader documentation seems to suggest that SQL*Loader just turns the input into alot of INSERT stateemnts. If so, can't I just do this?
    My performance with OCI and INSERT statements isn't very good, but I believe I am doing one transaction per insert. Might I be as well off to concentrate on fine tuning my OCI based code using INSERTs?
    I will actually do some time tests myself, but I would appreciate your opinion.
    Once again thanks for the great info you have provided.

  • Loading multiple tables with SQL Loader

    Hi,
    I want to load multiple tables from a single data file using SQL Loader.
    Here's the basic idea of what I want. Let's say I have two tables, table =T1
    and table T2:
    SQL> desc T1;
    COL1 VARCHAR2(20)
    COL2 VARCHAR2(20)
    SQL> desc T2;
    COL1 VARCHAR2(20)
    COL2 VARCHAR2(20)
    COL3 VARCHAR2(20)
    My data file, test.dat, looks like this:
    AAA|KBA
    BBR|BBCC|CCC
    NNN|BBBN|NNA
    I want to load the first record into T1, and the second and third record load into T2. How do I set up my control file to do that?
    Thank!

    Tough Job
    LOAD DATA
    truncate
    INTO table t1
    when col3 = 'dummy'
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
    TRAILING NULLCOLS
    (col1,col2,col3 filler char nullif col3='dummy')
    INTO table t2
    when col3 != 'dummy'
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
    (col1,col2,col3 nullif col3='dummy')
    This will load t2 tbl but not t1.
    T1 Filler col3 is not accepting nullif. Its diff to compare columns have null using when condition. If i find something i will let you know.
    Can you seperate records into 2 file. Will a UNIX command work for you which will seperate 2col and 3col record types for you. and then you can execute 2 controlfiles on it.
    Thanks,

  • How can I troubleshoot this problem with the iMac keyboard? My keyboard disconnects and reconnects within seconds but all the typing is lost while it was offline.  This is usually 5 seconds or less but happens 2 or 3 times in a minute.  Annoying!

    My wireless keyboard disconnects and reconnects within seconds but all text that was typed during the time offline is missing.  i have to go back and retype missing parts.  What can I do to troubleshoot this.  The computer is only about six month old.  This problem is new in the last couple weeks.  Thanks for suggestions.

    Beat me to it, Donald.     But there is a possible alternative.  If the batteries have been replaced since new, were they replaced with the same batteries or another make.    There are examples around which do not fit perfectly and leave a certain amount of movement inside the battery housing.  That could lead to instability such as the OP describes.
