How to convert CLOB to XMLType ??

Hi,
I created a table XML_TAB as
SQL> desc xml_tab;
Name Null? Type
DOCID NUMBER
DTD CLOB
XMLDOC CLOB
VALID NUMBER
and I inserted a record in the table.
Now the file inserted at the column XMLDOC, I want to convert it to XMLType. How can I do that.
Some docs says to user XMLType.createXML function......
But when I did it....................
SQL> select xmltype.createxml(xmldoc) from xml_tab
ERROR:
ORA-31011: XML parsing failed
ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing
LPX-00210: expected '<' instead of '<'
Error at line 1
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE", line 0
ORA-06512: at line 1
What could be the cause of the problem? Am I doing it in a correct way?

The main difference between CLOB and XMLType is that XMLType always contain a well formed XML document.
So if CLOB doesn't complain , then XMLType does.

How to convert CLOB to BLOB with SQL Developer migration wizard?

Hi,
According to our requirement, we need to only migrate data from SQL Server 2008 to Oracle 11. I use the SQL Developer 3.0.04 migration wizard to do it.
I do migration from SQL Server (database name: SCDS41P2) to Oracle (User name: HCDS41P2).
My migration steps are as below: (I need to modify the target schema, so I add the steps 2) and step 3) )
1) Do migration by SQL Developer migration wizard;
2) Remove the Converted Database Objects node from migration project;
3) Re-do convert by SQL Developer migration wizard (contains changing the target schema);
When do step 1), the DBO_SCDS41P2 user is created automatically. CLOBTOBLOB_SQLDEVELOPER procedure is also created in this user.
I continued to run step 2) and step 3) with online mode. And find the table data which contains BLOB column can be moved into the target table. But from the Logging Page, I can't see the other detailed error info, so that I can't check which tables don't move data successfully.
Could you please tell me where the detail log file (e.g. contains every table's migration status) is if I use the online mode?
Additional, If I use offline mode to do step 3), I found the CLOB data can't be converted into BLOB automatically. Because in the load script (that is oracle_ctl.bat), only copy the source data to the CLOB column. After copy, it don't deal with the converting from CLOB to BLOB.
So could you please tell me how to convert CLOB to BLOB with offline mode?
Thanks so much.

Hi,
For your first question about logging - after the migration there will be an entry in the right hand panel for the migration project. If you open this there are various fields that give information about the status of each part of the migration. Does this give you the information you need ?
For the second problem about offline moving blob data have a look at the SQL*Developer documentation -
Oracle® SQL Developer User’s Guide Release 3.0
in the section -
2.2.8.1.4 Populating the Destination Database Using the Data Files
which describes the problem and how to get round it.

Pl. let me know if any one know the solution.

LONG has been depricated since 8i so I don't believe there is a general solution to go backwards short of reloading the data.

Convert CLOB to XMLType in SELECT statement ?

Hi XML Xperts,
In my Oracle 9.2.0.3 I have 1 table (tab1) with 2 cols (col1 as XMLType and col2 as CLOB). I Inserted in both fields the following same XML data :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<TABLE_NAME>MY_TABLE</TABLE_NAME>
With the following statement, I can get the data from col1 which is a XMLType column :
SELECT a.col1.extract('//TABLE_NAME/text()').getStringVal() AS "Table Name"
FROM tab1 a
WHERE a.col1.existsNode('/TABLE_NAME') = 1;
How to get the same data FROM col2 whcih is a CLOB column ? Is it possible to transform the CLOB to XMLType in the SELECT statement ?
Note : I cannot change the type of the colulmn col2 to XMLType
Thanks in advance.
Phil

I tested it in 10g and it seems to be OK.
create table clobtoxml(xmldata clob);
insert into clobtoxml
values('<RootE><FirstNode>This is CLOB data to XML</FirstNode></RootE>');
commit;
select sys.xmltype(xmldata).extract('/RootE/FirstNode/text()').getStringVal() from clobtoxml;
This is CLOB data to XML
select sys.xmltype(xmldata).extract('/*') from clobtoxml;
<RootE>
<FirstNode>This is CLOB data to XML</FirstNode>
</RootE>

How to convert CLOB to UTF8

Hi all,
We have batch job which actually runs on daily basis and produces XML with the Java code.And the XML generated is used for various purposes.
Recently the job was not executed successfully because of some special characters in XML which falls out of ANSI encoding stantands.
So we are in a situation to convert the CLOB datatype (input to Java code) to UTF8 encoded XML.
We are not to able to achieve this .
Right now the cloB data is converted to ASCII stream,which doesn't create a well formed XML based on UTF8 encoding standards.See below the code
clob xmlCLOB = (Clob)clobInfo.get("clobfield");
InputStream is = xmlCLOB.getAsciiStream();
Any thoughts on how to convert this CLOB to UTF8?
Regards,
NaG

Joan,
I don't know if this will help with conversion of you BFILE, but at
http://www.xml.com/lpt/a/2000/04/26/encodings/xmlparser.html
and at
http://xmlsoft.org/encoding.html
there is some information on conversion to UTF8.
Hope it helps. Let us know.

sqlString7 || sqlString8 || sqlstring9 ||
sqlstring10;
END LOOP;
COMMIT;

Any help really appreciated
Thanks

We cannot execute clob dynamically.That's what I said: execute immediate doesn't support CLOB!
But you can concatenate two long's:
SQL> DECLARE
   l_stmt1   LONG;
   l_stmt2   LONG;
BEGIN
   l_stmt1 := RPAD ('BEGIN ', 32500, ' ');
   l_stmt2 :=
       RPAD (' dbms_output.put_line(''Hello World'');', 32500, ' ')
       || 'END;';
   DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line ('Length of statement: '
                         || LENGTH (l_stmt1 || l_stmt2)
   EXECUTE IMMEDIATE (l_stmt1 || l_stmt2);
END;
Length of statement: 65004
Hello World
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.So if you strip some extra spaces or try to compact your statement somehow, you might be able use above method.

Please help its very urgentNo, nothing is urgent here and it is very rude to suggest it is, as well as it being a breach of the terms of use for the forums. Urgent issues relate to commercially live systems, and for those you need to raise a support request with Oracle Support. The forums are manned by volunteers with their own jobs to do, so suggesting they drop everything to help you urgently is very rude. Also, other people asking questions would like answers to theirs as soon as possible too, so suggesting your question is more urgent than theirs is also rude to those people. You will find that suggesting your question is urgent will actually prevent people from helping you on the forums as many people will simply choose to ignore you for your rudeness (either that or they'll be rude back)
Please read {message:id=9360002} to learn how to ask a question properly.
Now, in answer to your question...
What is it you are really trying to do?
If you have comma seperated data, why it is being stored like that in a CLOB? That seems like bad design for storing data.
If the data is coming from a file, then you could consider using External Tables (or SQL*Loader) to load the comma seperated data in a structured way.
If you really have data in a clob in comma seperated format, what are you wanting to do with it exactly i.e. what determines where the data should be split?
Your code isn't clear, but it looks like, on the one hand you are splitting comma seperated data out of a string, and on the other hand you're turning it into XML to get a clob of data back.
Please be clear by providing some example data and expected output, along with your database version as explained in the FAQ post I linked to above.

How to convert clob to varchar2 in an update trigger

Hi,
I need to convert a field (clob) to varchar2 in a update trigger, how can I do that?
regards.

The maximum amount of data you can store in CLOB column is 4GB.
You have table TABLE1 having col1 CLOB datatype.You have one more table
Table_audit_1 without having CLOB datatype column and want to move CLOB
data into VARCHAR2 column which has maximum length of 4000 and want to
audit col1 CLOB into VARCHAR2.It seems to me you dont care about the data
beyond 4000 bytes.
In 9i SUBSTR, INSTR can be performed without reference to the DBMS_LOB
package.

This is the code which i am using to generate the XML and subsequently to generate the HTML output out of that using a XSL stylesheet.

How to convert a CLOB to BLOB

Hi,
Can any one tell me how to convert a CLOB into BLOB? In Oracle 10g there is a function which is converttoblob(). But in Oracle 9i there is no function as such. If i am using Hextoraw() function still then its giving some pointer error. please let me know the solution.

FUNCTION c2b( c IN CLOB ) RETURN BLOB
-- typecasts CLOB to BLOB (binary conversion)
IS
pos PLS_INTEGER := 1;
buffer RAW( 32767 );
res BLOB;
lob_len PLS_INTEGER := DBMS_LOB.getLength( c );
BEGIN
DBMS_LOB.createTemporary( res, TRUE );
DBMS_LOB.OPEN( res, DBMS_LOB.LOB_ReadWrite );
LOOP
buffer := UTL_RAW.cast_to_raw( DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR( c, 16000, pos ) );
IF UTL_RAW.LENGTH( buffer ) > 0 THEN
DBMS_LOB.writeAppend( res, UTL_RAW.LENGTH( buffer ), buffer );
END IF;
pos := pos + 16000;
EXIT WHEN pos > lob_len;
END LOOP;
RETURN res; -- res is OPEN here
END c2b;

Hello Vedant,
Would it suffice if you send a CSV file?
If yes, then see following code.. run the code under APEX > Home > SQL Workshop > SQL Commands
DECLARE
        ln_id NUMBER;
        lc_clob CLOB;
     lb_blob BLOB;
     li_in PLS_INTEGER := 1;
     li_out PLS_INTEGER := 1;
     li_lang PLS_INTEGER := 0;
     li_warning PLS_INTEGER := 0;
     lv_mail_rcpts VARCHAR2(2000) := '[email protected]';
     lv_mail_from VARCHAR2(100) := '[email protected]';
       lv_clmn_separator VARCHAR2(1) := ',';
BEGIN
     -- Build file content as CLOB
-- Replace with your query
     FOR i IN (select object_id A, object_name B, object_type C, status D, temporary E, generated F, secondary G,namespace H from user_objects where rownum < 10)
     LOOP
    IF lc_clob IS NULL THEN
      lc_clob := i.A||lv_clmn_separator||i.B||lv_clmn_separator||i.C||lv_clmn_separator||i.D||lv_clmn_separator||i.E||lv_clmn_separator||i.F||lv_clmn_separator||i.G||lv_clmn_separator||i.H;
    ELSE
      lc_clob := lc_clob||CHR(10)||i.A||lv_clmn_separator||i.B||lv_clmn_separator||i.C||lv_clmn_separator||i.D||lv_clmn_separator||i.E||lv_clmn_separator||i.F||lv_clmn_separator||i.G||lv_clmn_separator||i.H;
    END IF;
     END LOOP;
     -- Convert CLOB to BLOB
     DBMS_LOB.CREATETEMPORARY(lb_blob,TRUE);
     DBMS_LOB.convertToBlob(lb_blob,lc_clob,DBMS_LOB.LOBMAXSIZE,li_in,li_out,DBMS_LOB.DEFAULT_CSID,li_lang,li_warning);
     -- Send mail
     ln_id:= APEX_MAIL.SEND(
       p_to        => lv_mail_rcpts,
             p_from      => lv_mail_from,
             p_subj      => 'Subject Goes here',
             p_body      => 'Body goes here'
     -- add CSV file as attachment
     APEX_MAIL.ADD_ATTACHMENT
       p_mail_id   => ln_id,
       p_attachment => lb_blob,
       p_filename   => 'filename.csv',
       p_mime_type => 'application/csv'
-- push mail queue
APEX_MAIL.PUSH_QUEUE;
     -- empty temporary space
     DBMS_LOB.FREETEMPORARY ( lob_loc => lb_blob);
     COMMIT;
END;Regards,
