How to call XML in java?

I am designing a application for Running Automated Tests in java.It means that i will upload a (selenium)java file and on click of Run button, i need to call Apache ant build.xml to automize the test.Because Selenium always runs with Ant.How to call build.xml from a java file.

I am developing a project using java .I know selenium supports for 6 different languages(java,perl,php,python,ruby,.net).But i am asked for only selenium script in java.So i will upload only selenium java files.In Ant build.xml,we will give the filename(For ex.login.java).In front end ,i will have a run button.On clicking the Run button,I need to run the ant build.xml.So the only way is i need to call build.xml in the java file.This is my idea.If you have any other suggestion let me know how to proceed.I don't know, I don't use Selenium. But I do know that Ant isn't the only way it can be run. Ant isn't the only way anything can be run. Not even Ant. So since your assumption was that you needed to invoke Ant to do this, it's logical that you're wrong about that. There will be other ways to do it, read the docs

How to call xml from java

Hi
I want to use xml for updating files in an existing jar . so i want to call xml from java code and then come back to java code and do the remaining work in java code, pl guide me how to do this . what APIs are helpful for this regard
Thanks

You can't update files in a jar. Even if you could, you wouldn't use XML for that. You don't call XML. XML is not a programming language. So, basically your entire question is misguided.

How to parse XML to Java object... please help really stuck

Thank you for reading this email...
If I have a **DTD** like:
<!ELEMENT person (name, age)>
<!ATTLIST person
     id ID #REQUIRED
>
<!ELEMENT name ((family, given) | (given, family))>
<!ELEMENT age (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT family (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT given (#PCDATA)>
the **XML** like:
<person id="a1">
<name>
     <family> Yoshi </family>
     <given> Samurai </given>
</name>
<age> 21 </age>
</person>
**** Could you help me to write a simple parser to parse my DTD and XML to Java object, and how can I use those objects... sorry if the problem is too basic, I am a beginner and very stuck... I am very confuse with SAXParserFactory, SAXParser, ParserAdapter and DOM has its own Factory and Parser, so confuse...
Thank you for your help, Yo

Hi, Yo,
Thank you very much for your help. And I Wish you are there...I'm. And I plan to stay - It's sunny and warm here in Honolulu and the waves are up :)
A bit more question for dear people:
In the notes, it's mainly focus on JAXB,
1. Is that mean JAXB is most popular parser for
parsing XML into Java object? With me, definitely. There are essentially 3 technologies that allow you to parse XML documents:
1) "Callbacks" (e.g. SAX in JAXP): You write a class that overrides 3 methods that will be called i) whenever the parser encounters a start tag, ii) an end tag, or iii) PCDATA. Drawback: You have to figure out where the heck in the document hierarchy you are when such a callback happens, because the same method is called on EACH start tag and similarly for the end tag and the PCDATA. You have to create the objects and put them into your own data structure - it's very tedious, but you have complete control. (Well, more or less.)
2) "Tree" (e.g. DOM in JAXP, or it's better cousin JDOM): You call a parser that in one swoop creates an entire hierarchy that corresponds to the XML document. You don't get called on each tag as with SAX, you just get the root of the resulting tree. Drawback: All the nodes in the tree have the same type! You probably want to know which tags are in the document, don't you? Well, you'll have to traverse the tree and ask each node: What tag do you represent? And what are your attributes? (You get only strings in response even though your attributes often represent numbers.) Unless you want to display the tree - that's a nice application, you can do it as a tree model for JTree -, or otherwise don't care about the individual tags, DOM is not of much help, because you have to keep track where in the tree you are while you traverse it.
3) Enter JAXB (or Castor, or ...): You give it a grammar of the XML documents you want to parse, or "unmarshall" as the fashion dictates to call it. (Actually the name isn't that bad, because "parsing" focuses on the input text while "unmarshalling" focuses on the objects you get, even though I'd reason that it should be marshalling that converts into objects and unmarshalling that converts objects to something else, and not vice versa but that's just my opinion.) The JAXB compiler creates a bunch of source files each with one (or now more) class(es) (and now interfaces) that correspond to the elements/tags of your grammar. (Now "compiler" is a true jevel of a misnomer, try to explain to students that after they run the "compiler", they still need to compile the sources the "compiler" generated with the real Java compiler!). Ok, you've got these sources compiled. Now you call one single method, unmarshall() and as a result you get the root node of the hierarchy that corresponds to the XML document. Sounds like DOM, but it's much better - the objects in the resulting tree don't have all the same type, but their type depends on the tag they represent. E.g if there is the tag <ball-game> then there will be an object of type myPackage.BallGame in your data structure. It gets better, if there is <score> inside <ball-game> and you have an object ballGame (of type BallGame) that you can simply call ballGame.getScore() and you get an object of type myPackage.Score. In other words, the child tags become properties of the parent object. Even better, the attributes become properties, too, so as far as your program is concerned there is no difference whether the property value was originally a tag or an attribute. On top of that, you can tell in your schema that the property has an int value - or another primitive type (that's like that in 1.0, in the early release you'll have to do it in the additional xjs file). So this is a very natural way to explore the data structure of the XML document. Of course there are drawbacks, but they are minor: daunting complexity and, as a consequence, very steep learning curve, documentation that leaves much to reader's phantasy - read trial and error - (the user's guide is too simplicistic and the examples too primitive, e.g. they don't even tell you how to make a schema where a tag has only attributes) and reference manual that has ~200 pages full of technicalities and you have to look with magnifying glas for the really usefull stuff, huge number of generated classes, some of which you may not need at all (and in 1.0 the number has doubled because each class has an accompanying interface), etc., etc. But overall, all that pales compared to the drastically improved efficiency of the programmer's efforts, i.e. your time. The time you'll spend learning the intricacies is well spent, you'll learn it once and then it will shorten your programming time all the time you use it. It's like C and Java, Java is order of magnitude more complex, but you'd probably never be sorry you gave up C.
Of course the above essay leaves out lots and lots of detail, but I think that it touches the most important points.
A word about JAXB 1.0 vs. Early Release (EA) version. If you have time, definitively learn 1.0, they are quite different and the main advantage is that the schema combines all the info that you had to formulate in the DTD and in the xjs file when using the EA version. I suggested EA was because you had a DTD already, but in retrospect, you better start from scratch with 1.0. The concepts in 1.0 are here to stay and once your surmounted the learning curve, you'll be glad that you don't have to switch concepts.
When parser job is done,
what kind of Java Object we will get? (String,
InputStream or ...)See above, typically it's an object whose type is defined as a class (and interface in 1.0) within the sources that JABX generates. Or it can be a String or one of the primitive types - you tell the "compiler" in the schema (xjs file in EA) what you want!
2. If we want to use JAXB, we have to contain a
XJS-file? Something like:In EA, yes. In 1.0 no - it's all in the schema.
I am very new to XML, is there any simpler way to get
around them? It has already take me 4 days to find a
simple parser which give it XML and DTD, then return
to me Java objects ... I mean if that kind of parser
exists....It'll take you probably magnitude longer that that to get really familiar with JAXB, but believe me it's worth it. You'll save countless days if not weeks once you'll start developing serious software with it. How long did it take you to learn Java and it's main APIs? You'll either invest the time learning how to use the software others have written, or you invest it writing it yourself. I'll take the former any time. But it's only my opinion...

venujTry this simple webservice client.
You will need apache-axis.jar in your classpath. The following client is apache axis based. A similiar client can be built also using the JAX-WS only[without apache-axis.jar].
import org.apache.axis.client.Call;
import org.apache.axis.client.Service;
import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
public class WEBSERVICE_CLIENT{
public static void main(String [] args) {
try {
String endpoint ="<YOUR WS ENDPOINT>";
        Service service = new Service();
        Call     call    = (Call) service.createCall();
        // YOU CAN SET VARIOUS PROPERTIES IN THE "CALL" OBJECT...LIKE
        // USERNAME,PASSWORD,PROPERTIES OF HTTP HEADER. SEE "CALL" OBJECT'S API FOR MORE PROPERTIES.
        call.setTargetEndpointAddress( new java.net.URL(endpoint) );
        call.setOperationName(new QName("<YOUR WS SERVICE NAMESPACE>", "<WS SERVICE TO BE INVOKED>"));
        String msg = (String) call.invoke( new Object[] { "data" } );
        System.out.println("RETURNED MESSAGE : "+msg);
      } catch (Exception e) {
        System.err.println(e.toString());

How to call xsl from java?

Hi All,
My main java class 'OrderCustomerEntry' is located in package 'Order.Profiles.Customer'
I have my xml input stored in a String object. Now I have stored a xsl in the same package 'Order.Profiles.Customer'.
I make certain updations to my xml. After that, I have to call a xsl, which will finally do some transformations on my xml.
Kindly tell me how to call this xsl file from java.
Thanks,
Sabarisri. N
Edited by: Sabarisri N on Oct 11, 2011 11:15 AM

This can be complicated with many factors coming into play. Suppose everything is set up in good order, if the xsl is stored in the jar containing the package Order.Profiles.Customer at its root. That means, the jar has some structure like this:
Order/Profiles/CustomerOrderCustomerEntry.class
META-INF/...
xyz.xsl
etcYou may try this when load it up.
String xslFile="xyz.xsl";
//tf being the factory
Transformer transformer = tf.newTransformer(new StreamSource(ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream(xslFile)));The change with respect to the case where the xslFile is in the current directory is the ClassLoader part.
Suppose it is stored in a resource directory say "res".
Order/Profiles/CustomerOrderCustomerEntry.class
META-INF/...
res/xyz.xsl
etcThe corresponding lines would look like this.
String xslFile="res/xyz.xsl";
//tf being the factory
Transformer transformer = tf.newTransformer(new StreamSource(ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream(xslFile)));Hopefully, this may be enough to get you going...
ps: Although no one should force anyone on the way to name packages, the majority in the industry uses all lowercase characters whenever possible.

How to call another directory java program?

Hi All,
For Example:

I want to call Aprog to Bprog method.
How to call?
Plz., help me ASAP.
--Mohan

My program is here in two directories.Let
Think that directory names like A and B.
It's more complicated than that. A java program consists of multiple .class files. In general you have one or more "trees" of directories of .class files, where the structure of the tree reflects the package structure. So a the class file for "org.dingbat.Thingy" is <basedir>/org/dingbat/Thingy.class where <basedir> is some directory on the class path.
So referencing one class from another in different directories requires that the source provides the "fully qualified name" of the class (usually on an import) and making sure that, if it's in a different class file tree, both base directories are on the class path.

How to call webservice from Java application

Hi XI gurus
Pls let me know how to call a webservice from Java application.
I wanted to build synchronous interface from Java Application to SAP using SAP XI
For example, i need to create Material master from Java application and the return message from SAP, should be seen in Java application
Regards
MD

Hi,
If your JAVA Application is Web based application, you can expose it as Webservice.
JAVA People will pick the data from Dbase using their application and will send the data to XI by using our XI Details like Message Interface and Data type structure and all.
So we can Use SOAP Adapter or HTTP in XI..
If you use HTTP for sending the data to XI means there is no need of Adapter also. why because HTTP sits on ABAP Stack and can directly communicate with the XI Integration Server Directly
If you are dealing with the Webservice and SAP Applications means check this

How to call webservices function - java importer 6i -Duncan?

I've imported methods of a webservice from salcentral following instructions in otn.
Now I need to figure out how to call the resulting function in forms
Here is the function, the pl/sql error is wrong number or type of arguments
Anyone done this and know how to get the function signature correct?
I want to call checkemail
PACKAGE BODY MXCheckerStub IS

JNI.ADD_OBJECT_ARG(args, a0, JNI.GET_CLASS('org/w3c/dom/Element'));
RETURN JNI.CALL_OBJECT_METHOD(obj, mid, args);
END;

I would try to take an aproach where I'll generate a stub for the WSDL in JDeveloper, and also write a
Java class that calls this stub and return a simple variable (String, int, or boolean).
Then I would call this class from Forms.
I believe this would make it easier.

MDM Web Service Generator - How to Call WS in Java?

Hi there,
I have generated a web service by navigating to http://<server>:<port>/mdm/wsgenerator - The web service is succesfully generated and deployed. I can easily test the web service using the WS Navigator (http://<server>:<port>/wsnavigator).
I am now trying to use NWDS7.2 to create a wrapper web service, and need to call my generated MDM WS using Java code. I have created a CAF project, and imported the MDM web service using the WSDL. I have created an application service and no matter what I try, I cannot get the MDM web service to instantiate.
Is there anyone that has done this before? What method should be used?
All I need to know is how to create an instance of the generated MDM web service - There is no obvious constructor to use. See my code below, but this creates an exception at runtime for "IndexOutOfBoundsException". Note that the web service I generated is called "MdmWfProjectUpdate"
service = new MdmWfProjectUpdateViDefaultService(
                              new java.net.URL(
                                          "http://<server>:<port>/MdmWfProjectUpdate/HTTPBasic?wsdl"),
                              new javax.xml.namespace.QName(
                                          "urn:MdmWfProjectUpdateWsd/HTTPNone", "MdmWfProjectUpdateVi_DefaultService"));
I can call other web services without a problem in my code, so it is quite confusing that I cannot get this to work...
Any help will be appreciated!

Hi david ,
When u imported this webservice,there will be lot of classes generated .In these classes some are executable classes.Like if your webservice contain some operations like update,create,delete.
then for each operation tere will be one executable class generated.
this class must have some function like execute or invoke.You have to call this function in order to get the results.
Just check whether is there any such class generated or not.
Kindly revert back with your results.
Thanks,

How to parse xml in java

i wrote java client to invoke webservice(TIBCO) as a result i am getting back xml. now i have to parse xml and use the information. can anyone pls advise on this.
thanks

There are two kinds of parser available. One converts the XML to a Document Object Model (DOM). This is a heirarchy of Node objects each of which represents an element of XML, a tag, an attribute a piece of text etc.. Then you walk the graph extracting what you want.
The other kind is the SAX event parser. You give this a callback (extends DefaultHandler) and it calls appropriate methods for each element as it's encountered.
The second method is probably slight more complex to use but will deal with files of unlimited size without huge memory usage.
In both cases you get the parser using a Factory/Interface pattern. You'll find the factory classes in javax.xml.parsers. The rest of the DOM stuff is in org.w3c.dom and the SAX stuff in org.xml.sax.
