If anyone could at least guide me with the basic commands and structure of the parser it would be really really great ...
Thanks a lot

Normally if you have no idea about X, the first thing you should do is google "X tutorial". You will find plenty of them out there. And the advantage is, they are better written than whatever we spend two minutes throwing together here. Not to mention that it saves us the two minutes.
But if you have specific questions with your SAX parser when you get it going, then ask them here. Actually, ask them in the XML forum here, not this one.

How to parse the xml file using servlet

My scenario is like this:
FILE-->XI-->J2EE Application
XI sends the xml file to j2ee application. My servlet receives the file in HTTPRequest string.
How to parse that file using servlets.I should get the xml file as it is and should be displayed in the browser.
Can anyone please help me with code, its urgent.
Please help me!

Download this java code
http://java.sun.com/webservices/jaxp/dist/1.1/docs/tutorial/sax/work/Echo02.java
in your servlet code you can write
public void doPost(req,resp){
DefaultHandler handler = new Echo02();
handler.parse(req.getInputStream());
Offcourse you will need to modify the code of Echo02 class a bit to suit your requirement which would finally retrun you a string and you can then write it using
respose.getWriter().write(responseString);

How to parse a XML file

I am a new learner to XML & JAVA,I dont't know how to parse the XML file using JAXP,Who can tell me,Who can write an Example?
thx
Best Regards.

Using the SAXParser in JAXP the parsing of the XML file is event driven.
Instantiate the parser:
SAXParserFactory factory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
SAXParser parser = factory.newSAXParser();
InputSource is = new InputSource(new FileReader(theXML));call the parse method:
parser.parse(is, this);The following events are fired as the parser works through the XML public void startElement(String namespaceURI, String localName, String qName, Attributes atts) throws org.xml.sax.SAXException
public void endElement(String namespaceURI, String localName, String qName) throws org.xml.sax.SAXException
characters(char[] ch, int start, int length)etc.
You write what you want within each of these sections to handle the structure of your data. Keep in mind SAX is useful only when you know the structure of your XML.

Parsing a XML file using Jdom-Problem.

Hi all,
I am reposting it as I was told to format the code and send it again.
I am trying to parse a xml file using a jdom java code.This code works fine if I remove xmlns attribute in the root element. (I get the expected result) .If the "xmlns" attribute is put in the xml as it should be then the parsing and retrieving returns null. Please tell me how to fix this issue.

This is what you get for working 12 hours straight....
I changed:
xmlObject["mydoc"]["modelglue"]["event-handlers"]["event-handler"][i].xmlAttrib utes["name"] 
to:
#mydoc["modelglue"]["event-handlers"]["event-handler"][i].xmlAttrib utes["name"]# 
xmlObject is the name of my xml object in memory, and then you reference from the root of the xml doc down the chain.

How quickly parse big XML file (60 MB) ???

How quickly parse big XML file (60 MB) ???

I assume you mean load it into XML DB ?. Fundamentally your document is about the upper limit for 9.2.x. I would strongly recommend trying to break it up into a set of smaller documents using a SAX parser before trying to load it into XML DB. In 10g it should be possible to load much bigger documents than this.

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.

How to retrieve data (xml file) using jsp

I am a newbie to xml. I have decided to store my information in the xml file. may I know how can I retrieve my information from the xml file?
Thanx in advance.

I am a newbie to xml. I have decided to store my
information in the xml file. may I know how can I
retrieve my information from the xml file?
Thanx in advance.You can get the information from the XML file using one of the parsers available, such as Xerces http://xml.apache.org, and JDOM as an API.
Using this you have the option of having a SAXParser or a DOMParser.
SAX (Simple API for XML) is an event based parser, so if you know the XML structure, and need to find a certain element, you can just look for the element name,and retrieve the value of the element, it's attributes and its children.
DOM(Document Object Model)represents the XML as a tree, but uses more resources as it stores the entire tree in memory. But it is good in that you can traverse the whole tree.
JDOM would be a good idea too. If you download this, you can use it's API, which is very good, that will use the parser on your system (Xerces). I would definately recommend JDOM.

Parsing an xml file using xerces DOM parser

Hi
I want to parse a simple xml file using DOM parser.
The file is
<Item>
 <SubItem>
 <title>SubItem0</title>
 <attr1>0</attr1>
 <attr2>0</attr2>
 <attr3>0</attr3>
 </SubItem>
 <SubItem>
 <title>SubItem1</title>
 <attr1>1</attr1>
 <attr2>0</attr2>
 <attr3>0</attr3>
 </SubItem>
 <SubItem>
 <title>SubItem2</title>
 <attr1>1</attr1>
 <attr2>1</attr2>
 <attr3>0</attr3>
 <SubItem>
 <title>SubItem20</title>
 <attr1>2</attr1>
 <attr2>1</attr2>
 <attr3>0</attr3>
 </SubItem>
 <SubItem>
 <title>SubItem21</title>
 <attr1>1</attr1>
 <attr2>1</attr2>
 <attr3>0</attr3>
 </SubItem>
 </SubItem>
</Item>
I just want to parse this file and want to store the values in desired datastructures,
I am trying using DOM parser, since it gives a tree structure, which is ok in this case.
public void init()
 InputReader ir =new InputReader("Habsys");
 Document doc =ir.read("Habitat");
 System.out.println(doc);
 traverse(doc);
private void traverse(Document idoc)
 NodeList lchildren=idoc.getElementsByTagName("SubItem");
 for(int i=0;i<lchildren.getLength();i++)
 String lgstr=lchildren.item(i).getNodeName();
 if(lgstr.equals("SubItem"))
 traverse(lchildren.item(i));
private void traverse (Node node) {
int type = node.getNodeType();
if (type == Node.ELEMENT_NODE)
System.out.println ("Name :"+node.getNodeName());
if(!node.hasChildNodes())
System.out.println ("Value :"+node.getNodeValue());
NodeList children = node.getChildNodes();
if (children != null) {
for (int i=0; i< children.getLength(); i++)
traverse (children.item(i));
But I am not getting required results, a lot of values I am getting as null
Could anybody tell me how to retrieve the data from the xml file, I simply want to read data and store it in data structures. For eg, for tag Subitem with title as ' SubItem1' has attr1 as '1', attr2 as'0' and attr3 as '0'.
Thanks

You should update your DOM document to represent the changes that you want made.
Then, using the Transformation API you simply transform your document onto a stream representing your file. Something like this:
Transformer transformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, "yes");
// TODO - set indentation amount!
Source source = new DOMSource(dom);
Result result = new StreamResult(file);
transformer.transform(source, result);Hope this helps.

Parsing a XML file using bracket notation

Hi Gang-
I have been given the task to parse a .xml file.
The xml file contains element names that contain hyphens, so I've read that bracket notation is the only way to go. According to Ben Forta I have built the following code, but because of what I believe to be a simple syntax issue that I simply cannot put my finger on I can not get it to work:
1. <cffile action="read" file="/Applications/Coldfusion8/wwwroot/config/ModelGlue.xml" variable="xmldoc">
2. <cfset mydoc=XmlParse(xmldoc)>
3. <cfset newLen=#arraylen(mydoc.modelglue.xmlchildren[2].xmlChildren)#>
4. <cfoutput>

6. xmlObject["mydoc"]["modelglue"]["event-handlers"]["event-handler"][i].xmlAttributes["name "] 
7. </cfloop>
8. </cfoutput>
When I run the code line 6 literally appears on screen the proper amount of times, according to the "to" value in my loop.
I tried putting pound signs around line 6 but it returns an error saying that "... xmlObject is undefined..."
Because of the hyphens it seems that I'm forced to use the bracket notation (I'm OK with that) but does anyone know how to render line 6 to obtain the value?
Thanks in advance,
Rich

LOL
This is what you get for working 12 hours straight....
I changed:
xmlObject["mydoc"]["modelglue"]["event-handlers"]["event-handler"][i].xmlAttrib utes["name"] 
to:
#mydoc["modelglue"]["event-handlers"]["event-handler"][i].xmlAttrib utes["name"]# 
xmlObject is the name of my xml object in memory, and then you reference from the root of the xml doc down the chain.
Sorry for the inconvenience,
Rich

How do I generate XML File Using JDeveloper 9.0.3

Hi All
I want to generate a XML file against the data in one of my Oracle table,,,, This is the first time I am doing this Task, so please let me know whether I am going through the correct path, or if not appreciate if you could put me to the correct system of doing this please��..
OK , Well I am working to a publishing company in Australia and we have Oracle 8i (Release 3 ) database and I have Oracle JDeveloper (9.0.3 -Preview ) version in my personal computer.
I have a Table(ONIXT4) with three Columns( ISBN,Author,Price) in Oracle as follows:
ISBN Author Price
2512456321 Peter 14.50
7445854127 Ray 21.75
What I want to generate a XML File using JDeveloper as below with respect to data in above Table.
<ISBN>2512456321</ISBN>
<ProductInfor>
<Author>Peter</Author>
<Price>14.50</Price>
</ProductInfor>
<ISBN>7445854127</ISBN>
<ProductInfor>
<Author> Ray </Author>
<Price>21.75</Price>
</ProductInfor>
I created the database connection within JDeveloper to Oracle those working fine,, my major problem is,, the Tag <ProductInfor>, since this is not a Column Name of the Table I don't know how should I incorporate this with the file.
What I did so far with the JDeveloper:
1.Create the Workspace and the Project
2.File -- New -- XML -- XSQL
3.Then I Selected Query from the Component Palette,, Property Values were NOT changed, and gave 'Select * from ONIXT4'
Whole Untitled3.xsql file look likes below
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>

<page xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql" connection="Connection1">
<xsql:query max-rows="-1" null-indicator="no" tag-case="lower">
Select * From OnixT4
</xsql:query>
</page>
Then the Result comes as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
- 
- <page>
- <rowset>
- <row num="1">
<isbn>2512456321</isbn>
<author>Peter</author>
<price>14.5</price>
</row>
- <row num="2">
<isbn>7445854127</isbn>
<author>Ray</author>
<price>21.75</price>
</row>
</rowset>
</page>
How do I format the outcome to obtain the my requirement??
Welcome all comments of donig this ....

To format your XML to the requiered output you'll use a stylesheet and XSLT
As it says in your output:
- 
A nice tutorial on XSLT is available on the XML technology center in OTN:

How to parse large xml file

I need to parse large xml file which contains following tag. The size of the file is upto 10MB-50MB or more.
<departments>
<department>
<a_depart id="124">
<b_depart id="Bss_253">
<bss_depart id="253">
<attributes>
<name_one>abc</name_one>
</attributes>
</bss_depart id="253">
</b_depart id="Bss_253">
</a_depart id="124">
</department>
<department>
<a_depart id="124">
<b_depart id="Bss_254">
<mss_depart id="253">
 <attributes>
 <name_one>abc</name_one>
 <name_two>xyz</name_one>
 </attributes>
 </mss_depart>
 </b_depart>
</a_depart>
</department>
<department>
<a_depart id="124">
<b_depart id="Bss_254">
<mss_depart id="255">
 <attributes>
 <name_one>abc</name_one>
 <name_two>xyz</name_one>
 </attributes>
 </mss_depart>
 </b_depart>
</a_depart>
</department>
<department>
<a_depart id="125">
<b_depart id="Bss_254">
<mss_depart id="253">
 <attributes>
 <name_one>abc</name_one>
 <name_two>xyz</name_one>
 </attributes>
 </mss_depart>
 </b_depart>
</a_depart>
</department>
I want to get the infomation for that xml file. like mss_depart id=233, building xpath dyanmically for every id and loading
that using dom4j. which is very very slow.
Is there any other solution for that to read the data using sax parser only.
I want to execute the xpath or data for the following way.
//a_depart/@id ------> all the ids of a_depart tags if it returns 3 values say 123,124,125
after that i want to execute
//a_depart[@id='123']/b_depart/@id like this ...to retrive the values of all the levels ...
 I am executing following xpath for every unique ids at all levels.
 List l = doc.selectNodes(xPathForID);
 List l1 = doc.selectNodes(xPathForAttributes+attributes.get(j)+"/text()");
But it is very slow and taking lot of time.
Is there any other way to solve this problem. If any please mail me it is urgent.
I am using jdk1.4 and jdk1.5
Is there any support for sax parser to execute xpath in jdk1.5 direclty, with out using dom4j
Thanks in advance....

I doubt you will find a preexisting solution to your problem.
SAX is usually recommended for processing big files (where "big" is undefined"). It works on big files by avoiding the messy problem of storing the data -- that is left as an exercise to you.
DOM (and its variants) works by building a Document object as the head of the tree of objects for the entire contents. With DOM, you can then use XPath, because there is something to search that is already in memory. To use XPath, you seem to have two choices, build a DOM-ish tree, or if you can find an XPath processor (I'm not sure if one exists) that can process the XML file directly, but it will be slow, since you are looking for "all" occurences of an attribute, and this means you have to read the entire file each time.
It might be worth exploring a hybrid approach -- use SAX to get some information, and build your own objects to store the data. Maybe a HashMap as the main index. But, that will keep you from using XPath, since you do not have the data structures it expects.
A third alternative would be to look at JAXB. It builds Java code from a Schema of your data and then when you import the data, it creates the necessary objects and fills in values. But, I don't think XPath woll work there either.
