How to Update and XML file

Hi,
I'm reading an XML file using SAX api, now based on some calculations, i want to add a new Element inside the same XML file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<types>
<type super = "City">
<t>Faro</t>
<t>Porto</t>
<t>Helsinki</t>
</type>
</types>Now in the above XML snippet, i want to add an new sub element <t> Islamabad </t>, inside types.
Following is the point in the code where i'm stuck:
for (int typeID = 0; typeID < typeList.size(); typeID++) {
                    Element type = (Element) typeList.get(typeID);
                    String superTypeStr = type.getAttributeValue("super").toString();
                    if (superTypeStr.equalsIgnoreCase(comboValue)) {
                         Element t = new Element("t");
                         t.addContent(typeValue);
                         //NOW HOW TO ADD THIS <t>, inside a matched type element (in this case "city"), and write it into the xml file
                         break;
typeList is a List object, which i get using : typeList = types.getChildren("type");Hope i have explained the problem clearly, writing an XML fime from scratch is easy. but in my case i want to update an existing xml file with a new element entry.
The XML file should need to be updated like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<types>
<type super = "City">
<t>Faro</t>
<t>Porto</t>
<t>Helsinki</t>
<t>Islamabad</t>
</type>
</types>--

hey mate, i remember when i had a similar issue before. I ended up using parsing the document using DOM instead of SAX. The reason being that i wanted to update the XML file and if i parsed the document using DOM i had a handle on the document object so i could subsequently update it. But the drawback is that the entire xml structure is parsed into memory, as opposed to SAX which im sure you know is event driven and memory friendly. I would use SAX for the simple process of parsing the xml file to either examine, or print out the content or both.Perhaps consider DOM?

How to update an XML file?

hi,
I am having an xml file like this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE map [ <!ELEMENT map (entry*) >
<!ELEMENT entry EMPTY >
<!ATTLIST entry key ID #REQUIRED
value CDATA "mydefault"> ]>
<map>
<entry key="key1" value="xxx"/>
<entry key="key2" value="yyy"/>
</map>
I have written a DOMparsing program to parse this XML file. And the program is this,
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError;
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;

import org.xml.sax.SAXParseException;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;
import org.w3c.dom.NamedNodeMap;
import org.w3c.dom.DOMException;
import org.w3c.dom.Attr;
import org.w3c.dom.NodeList;
public class DomExample
public static void main(String args[])
// Obtain an XML document; this method is implemented in
Document doc = parseXmlFile("sample1.xml", true);
//Getting elements by Tag name
NodeList nodeList= doc.getElementsByTagName("entry");
// Obtain an element
Element element = (Element)(nodeList.item(0));
element.removeAttribute("value");
element.setAttribute("value", "Manivannan");
try
TransformerFactory tFactory =TransformerFactory.newInstance();
StreamSource stylesource = new StreamSource();
Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(stylesource);
DOMSource source = new DOMSource(doc);
//File f1 = new File("Sample3.xml");
StreamResult result = new StreamResult(System.out);
transformer.transform(source, result);
catch(TransformerException te)
te.printStackTrace();
public static Document parseXmlFile(String filename, boolean validating) {
try {
// Create a builder factory
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
factory.setValidating(validating);
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
// Create the builder and parse the file
Document doc = builder.parse(new File(filename));
return doc;
} catch (SAXException e) {
// A parsing error occurred; the xml input is not valid
} catch (ParserConfigurationException e) {
} catch (IOException e) {
return null;
Now what i am trying to do is replace value xxx in my xml with "Manivannan" and yyy with "gopalan"..But what i am getting during running this program is i am getting MalformedURL exception..Also will this program be able to update my xml with new values.If not possible pls let me know the method to update my xml file.
Thanks for your reply in advance.

Replace
StreamSource stylesource=new StreamSource();
Transformer transformer=tfactory.newTransformer(stylesource);with
Transformer transformer=tfactory.newTransformer();

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.

How can i generate session.xml file?

hello
i am a beginner of toplink,i find that in my project,i must provide two xml format files,they are "session.xml" and a project xml file,to make the toplink works well,the project descriptor can be generated by using the mapping workbench,but how can i generate the "session.xml",now,what i can do is to modify the sample file that come with the toplink installation,i wonder if there is a graphic tool that can be used to generate it?
thanks for any helps!

Currently there is no UI support for creating or modifying sessions.xml. The DTD is provided in both the documentation as well as in the installed files (<TOPLINK_HOME>\core\sessions_4_5.dtd). The examples should also contain a variety of sessions.xml file to assist you.

Using session.xml file from WorkB in a Session Facade based on another xml

Hi
I have the follwing scenario.
Need to read data from a set of tables and convert them into an XML file based on an XSD.
I am planning to use Toplink POJO in JDeveloper to create a SessionFacade to read the values.
I tested the SessionFacade using a client and I was able to read the values correctly.
Based on my xsd, I created a project in Workbench and mapped the classes created earlier, I was able to test this mapping using a test xml data file.
I was able to read the file, Unmarshall it, manipulate it and generate an XML.
Now the question is how do I call this Marshalling from my SessionFacade ?
Since two session.xml files are in different format, I could not copy the content from one file into another.
How do I create a JAXBContext based on a different session.xml?
Thanks
Sambath
Oracle Consulting

Hi Doug,
Thanks for the response. I did the same and I was able to make it work, soon after I posted. I should have updated it :-)
I used two sessions file.
The OXM expected the name of the file to sessions.xml and I have to keep it that way. I created a ormsession.xml using JDeveloper and referred the ORM Project created in the Workbench to use it for ORM . In fact I created a dummy ormsession.xml file in JDeveloper wiht a session named "default". I started by creating an entry manually by copying the contents of the session definition and renamed to "MySession"
Once again thanks for following up
Thanks

How to updating plugin.xml when it changed in 12C?

After Importing the Plug-in Archive and Deploying it on Management Service with 12C, I need to make a change with plugin.xml in Plug-in Archive. Here it's the change,
--- Old one:
<PluginAttributes Type="MP" ReleaseStatus="Test"/>
--- Change to:
<PluginAttributes Type="MP" DisplayName="MySQL Database" Category="Databases"/>
So I un-deployed Plug-in from Management Serbice, and used command "emcli import_update" to update the brand new OPAR file successfully, and the deployed again. But it seems the new plugin.xml didn't work at all, neither from UI nor the plugin.xml located under Management Server folder. I am sure it should work cause after I changed the Target Type and etc. in all related files to made a new plug-in, it works well.
So how to updating plugin.xml when it changed in 12C? (It seems there is no option with MRS.)
Thanks in advance!
Best wishes,
Satine

Hey Caroy,
Thank you for your help.
It seems there is no entrance within page "Setup->Extensibility->Self Update" to delete a plugin. Would you please tell me more specific position?
I will upgrade the version of plugin and try again to see if it works.
Thanks,
Satine

Updating an XML file inside the executable JAR.

Hello all!
I would like to askk how can i update an XML file that is packaged inside my jar file?
For intstance:
I have a Java Application in NetBeans
Inside a package i have constructed a custom .xml file.
I can read from this file using
.....getClass().getResourceAsStream("/.../file.xml")and after that using XPath for querying and works fine.
I want to update an entry in my xml file so the jar contains now the newly updated file.

Even if it were possible, it would be a bad idea. A jar file is something you deploy. It can be really hard to manage ongoing maintenance if the thing you deploy changes after you've deployed it.
Just create a file, in an appropriate place given the user's OS, to hold data that changes after the jar has been deployed. Your application will still be in a single jar; it's just that the application will happen to create additional content outside the jar.

QUESTION: Where do I find the sessions.xml file?

I am using JD 10.1.3. I used CMP entity beans from tables to create my EJBs. I also created a local client for my entity bean. When I try to run my local client I get a bunch of errors. I have a sample of the errors, below. I have the following questions:
1. How do you resolve these?
2. I tried to uncomment the code from the local client that refers to sessions.xml. I am unable to locate this file. Where can I get a sample of this file?
3. Can anyone point me to a sample code of CMP entity beans from tables and sessions.xml file?
Many thanks.

The Oracle documentation has a good overview of the options available
Generating XML Data from the Database
Without knowing your version, I just picked 11.2, so you made need to look for that chapter in the documentation for your version to find applicable information.
You can also find some information in XML DB FAQ

How to Merge multiple XML files in one file ( Env: XML Publisher 5.6.2)

All,
I have recently started working on XML publisher and have developed 3 reports in last 2 days using XML Publisher and integrating them with Concurrent programs.
This is a great tool.
I have got another requirement, where i need to use xml file generated by multiple run of same report with various parameters and then merge all xml file to a single report. Developing the whole custom process will take very long time and sure will have bugs in it. Instead i was thinking to use xml file generated by Oracle report itself.
Report "US Gross to net summary" generates xml output in standard output directory and then show output in PDF file. I have 7 such file generated for each payroll. I want to merge output of xml into a single xml so that i can create single report having data from all 7 xml files showing me All payroll output in a single report.
Can someone please guide me , how can i read xml file data from the output directory of a seeded concurrent program and how to manipulate data in it.
Thanks
Ankur

Hi Tim,
Thanks for replying. I have looked for "PDFBookBinder class" in xml publisher user guide for ver 5.6.2. I didn't get any reference of this text. Can you please guide me to a tutorial/link where i can get more information about this class.
Also, i originally thought of similar to your second logic, as my design basis. Oracle process generates the xml file in output directory which i can get. What i didn't get is how do i "pick them up and merge" using publisher. Also, is there way to do this merging process using pl/sql ? Can you please give little more information on your second approach.
My original plan of action is that i will create a report set in which i will call oracle seeded report for all 7 payrolls in a sequential manner. Then using the child requests of the report set i will get to 7 xml files generated by seeded oracle process. Then the piece i am not sure of , i will use those 7 files to generate a single xml file having payroll name as tree top for each output. Once single xml is ready, i can easily design a template and register the process to generate output as Excel.This process will not require me to actually change any data or do any calculation. It will only reformatting the feilds we see and abiity to see all 7 payroll at one time rather then entering these numbers manually into an excel to do analysis.
Please provide your feedback, if you think above plan is not feasible or need corrections.
Best Regards,
Ankur

Does anyone know how to convert an XML file to a readable file?

All,
I have been using an APP called "SMS Backup & Restore" to backup my message conversations to my Laptop PC. It works fine BUT the backup file, once in my PC, has an XML extent such as "filename.XML"
I would like to read and/or print and/or save the text message file so does anyone know how to convert the XML file to something else so it shows all the messages without all the formatting instructions.
When I try to see the XML file it shows all the formatting. If I replace the .XML with .TXT that too shows all the formatting mixed in with the text message narrative.
When I look at the XML file in SMS Backup & Restore in the Charge phone it looks great showing all the messages just as they were on the phones display. The problem with this is that there is no way to print or read or save the messages as they appear in the file from the phone itself. I tried screen capture but if you have, let's say, a 28 message conversation you have to do 7 or 8 screen captures to get them all.
If only I could convert the XML in my PC to something that is printable or savable or readable that would be the "cats meow."
Anyone know how???

PS, You might take a look at my related post.
https://community.verizonwireless.com/message/809832#809832

Ann154,
You were correct again. I deleted everything I had done to date and re-did the entire SMS backup of my 28 message conversation again and YES I was able to open it using IE-8. It looks great and it prints great and life is good! I am going to go make a donation.
Thanks again for the help. I marked this thread as answered by you.
