Is There An XML Schema Parser From Oracle ?

Is XML parser available from oracle different from Xml Schema parser ? Is schema parser available at all ? Where can I download it ? I tried a brief search and could not find ?
Help appreciated.
Thanx
Soorya

Thank you. I got it. I am trying to validate against an existing schema. But it always enters the "XMLParseException" handler.
Could you direct me to the documents which gives some examples ? or a 3 lines to validate would be helpful.
Thanx again.

  • Problem calling XML Report Publisher from Oracle Reports

    Hi,
    I'm facing a problem in calling XML Report Publisher from Oracle Reports.
    Basically, I'm trying to customise Dunning Letter program. The program which is submitted calls another program. I have customised the second program and added a call to a stored procedure which in turn calls XML Report Publisher.I have created a template and attached it to the second program as well.
    The procedure code is as follows.
    v_request_id := FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST(application => 'AR'
    ,program => 'ARDLP_NON_SRS'
    ,description => 'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate'
    ,sub_request => FALSE
    l_status := fnd_concurrent.WAIT_FOR_REQUEST
    ( REQUEST_ID => v_request_id,
    INTERVAL => 15,
    MAX_WAIT => 180,
    PHASE => l_phase,
    STATUS => l_status_code,
    DEV_PHASE => l_dev_phase,
    DEV_STATUS => l_dev_status,
    MESSAGE => l_message );
    v_xml_req_id := FND_REQUEST.submit_request(application => 'XDO',
    program => 'XDOREPPB',
              argument1 => v_request_id,
    argument2 => 'FLS DE AR Dunning Letter Print - German',
    argument3 => 603, -- changed 665 -- was 551,
    argument4     => NULL,
    argument5 => 'N',
    argument6     => 'RTF',
              argument7     => 'PDF');
    Now, there are two problems I'm facing...
    1. when the second program('Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate') gets called it executes this procedure ... logically the 'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate' should get called twice ... second time from the procedure. Its getting called multiple times .. as many as 15 - 20 times.
    2. The Xml Report Publisher program ultimately gets called but its erroring out with the following error:
    java.sql.SQLException: No corresponding LOB data found :SELECT L.FILE_DATA FILE_DATA, DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(L.FILE_DATA) FILE_LENGTH, L.LANGUAGE LANGUAGE, L.TERRITORY TERRITORY, B.DEFAULT_LANGUAGE DEFAULT_LANGUAGE, B.DEFAULT_TERRITORY DEFAULT_TERRITORY,B.TEMPLATE_TYPE_CODE TEMPLATE_TYPE_CODE, B.USE_ALIAS_TABLE USE_ALIAS_TABLE, B.START_DATE START_DATE, B.END_DATE END_DATE, B.TEMPLATE_STATUS TEMPLATE_STATUS, B.USE_ALIAS_TABLE USE_ALIAS_TABLE, B.DS_APP_SHORT_NAME DS_APP_SHORT_NAME, B.DATA_SOURCE_CODE DATA_SOURCE_CODE, L.LOB_TYPE LOB_TYPE FROM XDO_LOBS L, XDO_TEMPLATES_B B WHERE (L.LOB_TYPE = 'TEMPLATE' OR L.LOB_TYPE = 'MLS_TEMPLATE') AND L.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME= :1 AND L.LOB_CODE = :2 AND L.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME = B.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME AND L.LOB_CODE = B.TEMPLATE_CODE AND ( (L.LANGUAGE = :3 AND L.TERRITORY = :4 ) OR (L.LANGUAGE = :5 AND L.TERRITORY = :6) OR (L.LANGUAGE= B.DEFAULT_LANGUAGE AND L.TERRITORY= B.DEFAULT_TERRITORY ) )
    I have checked from database that the XDO_LOBS/ XDO_TEMPLATES_B table has corresponding registration data.
    I don't know what's creating the problem.
    If anyone has customised the Dunning Letter program before or having any idea about this problem, please help me out ..
    Thanks

  • Java +XML (SAX) Parser for Oracle 8.1.5 EE

    Hi there :)
    I am looking java classes for SAX to parse XML. I cannot find a valid parser, cause after downloaded from Oracle XDK for java, when i try to load this calasses i get a messages that i alot of classes connot be resolved.
    If somebody have valid classes on Ora 8.1.5 please send me mail.
    Adam

    Have i possibilities to using some javatypes in oracle java stored procedure if this class is not loaded into db?
    Cause i would like to create a java stored procedure to parse and insert some data from xml. I was thinking to pass xml file name as a parameter to my java procedure.
    I must use Oracle 8.1.5 with jdk 1.1.7, and the best parser for me is SAX.
    Please help.
    Have i possobilities to use class inside oracle, which are placed outside oracle?
    Something like classpath, where can i modify value (but classpath inside oracle)?

  • Using XDKs XML Schema Parser

    I want to parse an XML schema(XSD file) and extract the types from it, ComplexType etc. Does anyone know to even begin this. Ive managed to parse and any XML file sucessfully returning all element types,names and values using the DOM parser but cant seem to find suitable methods in the oracle.xml.parser.schema library. I have started along these lines
    XSDBuilder bob =new XSDBuilder();
    XMLSchema sch = (XMLSchema)bob.build(url);
    where URL is string referencing the xsd file. But after that all I can get is the targetnamespace using
    String display = sch.getSchemaTargetNS();
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Srinivas,
    Thanks for the reply. But that is not my requirement.Suppose I have a schema representing the following xml
    <Student>
    <Name>ABC</Name>
    <Class>XYZ</Class>
    <Course>PQR</Course>
    </Student>
    When I parse the XML Schema representing the above XML, it should give me a Java object that represents this XML structure. (Similar to Document object that is obtained when we an XML is parsed)
    Hope this is more clear.

  • How to load a XML-Schema (XSD) from Classpath

    Hi
    I want to perform XML Schema Validation using a XML-Schema stored in a File "MySchema.xsd" in the classpath.
    Unfortunately I have no clue, how I can load this file without using an absolute path. I already tried:
    Thread.currentThead().getContextClassLoader().getRessourceAsStream()but this method rejects to load Files with the extension XSD.It does however load the file, if I rename it to MySchema.xml or MySchema.properties, but then I cannot use the Visual Editors of JDeveloper to edit the File.
    Has anyone an idea, how I can load a XSD-File stored in the classpath?
    Thanks in advance
    Frank Brandstetter

    My Problem is, that I cannot load the Schema-File during runtime. I try to use code like this:
      String Schema = "sam/model/dataaccess/message/NavMessageXSD.xml";  // <== works with .xml, fails with .xsd
      ClassLoader loader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
      InputStream is = loader.getResourceAsStream(Schema);
      if (is==null)
        throw new Exception("Ressource not found");   // <== Exception thrown with .xsd
      XSDBuilder builder = new XSDBuilder();
      schemadoc = builder.build(new InputSource(is));
      DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();
      parser.setValidationMode(XMLParser.SCHEMA_VALIDATION);
      parser.setXMLSchema(schemadoc);This code works if "Schema" points to a file with extension .xml ("NavMessageXSD.xml"). It fails if "Schema" points to a file with extension .xsd ("NavMessageXSD.xsd").
    This file is already part of my project. If it is named "NavMessageXSD.xsd" I can edit it using the visual editor. If it is named "NavMessageXSD.xml" it is just an ordenary XML-File.
    Thanks for your help

  • Create XML using data from Oracle

    Other than using OracleXMLQuery, how do I create an XML file from the data from a table in Oracle?
    Rgds,
    Seetesh

    Vetsrini:
    Thanks for your response. I no longer can receive email at [email protected], because I am at a different company now. So please post directly to this forum so I can receive my messages.
    I would imagine that "look ahead" is a feature needed by many applications, since the heading of a document may depend on the data within. In my case, we have a Pack Slip that we want the bold heading title to change if the word "FAX" is inside the body of the document. Instead of saying "Pack Slip", it would say "Fax Pack Slip".
    Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

  • XML Schema Parsing

    I am parsing the xsd file, but I am getting exception if try to parse the schema which is having a refernce of another schema file. I am using the SAX parser.

  • Has anybody downloaded the student schema file from oracle pl/sql by benjam

    from a newbie:
    where is the file for the 3rd edition?

    This works for me:
    PROCEDURE A_DATA_B( p_ID IN SCHEMA2.TABLE1.ID@dblink%TYPE, 
                        p_MATCH IN SCHEMA2.TABLE2.MATCH@dblink%TYPE,

                        p_MSG IN SCHEMA2.TABLE1.MSG@dblink%TYPE,  
    Alternatively create a synonym for the table (you can't create a synonym for a schema):
    create synonym ref_table1 for SCHEMA2.TABLE1.ID@dblink
    PROCEDURE A_DATA_B( p_ID IN REF_TABLE1.ID%TYPE,

                        p_MSG IN REF_TABLE1.MSG%TYPE, 
    but I don't like the idea of depending on a schema in another instance at all.
    Can you create a reference set of tables in a schema on the current database, to be the source for the data types?

  • How to create XML from relational tables based on an XML Schema ?

    There is no automated way in Oracle XML DB to define an automatic mapping between a set of columns in some existing relational tables and the elements and attributres defined by an XML Schema.
    However it is easy solve this problem by using the SQL/XML operators (XMLAGG, XMLELEMENT, XMLFOREST, XMLATTRIBUTES, etc) to generate XML documents that are compliant with an XML Schema directly from a SQL statement.
    If the XML Schema is registered with Oracle XML DB and the appropraite Schema Location information is added into the generated document using XMLAttributes then it becomes very easy to ensure that the generated documents are valid.
    The following example show an easy way to do this by creating an XML View that contains the documents to be validated.

    There is no automated way in Oracle XML DB to define an automatic mapping between a set of columns in some existing relational tables and the elements and attributres defined by an XML Schema.
    However it is easy solve this problem by using the SQL/XML operators (XMLAGG, XMLELEMENT, XMLFOREST, XMLATTRIBUTES, etc) to generate XML documents that are compliant with an XML Schema directly from a SQL statement.
    If the XML Schema is registered with Oracle XML DB and the appropraite Schema Location information is added into the generated document using XMLAttributes then it becomes very easy to ensure that the generated documents are valid.
    The following example show an easy way to do this by creating an XML View that contains the documents to be validated.

  • Creating XML Schema from tables With Constraints

    Greetings,
    I'd have an interesting question. I finally am getting familiar with the various kinds of xml solutions provided by the oracle database, but hey here I have another interesting question I can't seem to get into life. I'm currently generating XML Schemas (XSD) from the tables of my database. Its nice its cool however I'd need to have the table's constraints with the xsd:elements also. And heres my problem, I can't seem to insert the table constrains. I'll show you what I mean:
    <xsd:element name="MESSAGE_TABLE">
      <xsd:complexType>
        <xsd:sequence>
          <xsd:element name="MESSAGE_RECORD">
            <xsd:complexType>
              <xsd:all>
                <xsd:element name="ID" type="xsd:integer" minOccurs="1" />
                <xsd:element name="HEADER">
                  <xsd:simpleType>
                    <xsd:restriction base="xsd:string>
                      <xsd:maxLength value="255" />
                    </xsd:restriction>
                  </xsd:simpleType>
                </xsd:element>
              </xsd:all>
            </xsd:complexType>
          </xsd:element>
        </xsd:sequence>
      </xsd:complexType>
      <!-- I'd need some more things here like... -->
      <!-- Primary key(s) -->
      <xsd:key name="PK_ID_PRIM">
        <xsd:selector xpath="." />
        <xsd:field xpath="ID" />
      </xsd:key>
      <!-- Foreign key(s) -->
      <xsd:keyref name="FK_HEADER_FOREIGN" refer="PK_HEADER_ID">
        <xsd:selector xpath="HEADER" />
        <xsd:field xpath="ID" />
      </xsd:keyref>
      <!-- Unique constraint(s) -->
      <xsd:unique name="UQ_..." ... />
      </xsd:unique>
    </xsd:element>That would fit my business needs, however I may be so blind that I can't see the forest from the tree. Currently I got so far that:
              xmlElement
                  "xsd:schema",
                  xmlAttributes
                      'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'      as "xmlns:xsd"
                  xmlElement
                    "xsd:element",
                    xmlAttributes
                      target_table                            as "name"
                    xmlElement               
                      "xsd:complexType",
                      xmlElement
                        "xsd:sequence",
                        xmlElement
                          "xsd:element",
                          xmlAttributes
                            target_table || '_RECORD'         as "name",
                            'unbounded'                       as "maxOccurs"
                          xmlElement
                            "xsd:complexType",
                            xmlElement
                              "xsd:sequence",
                                xmlAgg(ELEMENT)
                    xmlElement
                      "xsd:Key",
                )As you can see this won't be good since I have put a single xml element in there. I guess I'd need something more like an xmlAgg(CONSTRAINTS), however in that case I'm wondering how will the select's FROM part look like.
      FROM
        SELECT  table_name, internal_column_id,
                CASE
                  WHEN data_type IN ('VARCHAR2', 'CHAR')
                  THEN
                    xmlElement
                      "xsd:element",
                      xmlattributes
                        column_name as "name",
                        decode(NULLABLE, 'Y', 0, 1) as "minOccurs"

        FROM user_tab_cols c
        WHERE TABLE_NAME = target_table
        ORDER BY internal_column_id

    Thanks for that, answer. That helped me a lot managing primary constraints. However I still have problems managing foreign keys. I come up with the following formula:
              xmlElement
                  "xsd:schema",
                  xmlAttributes
                      'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'      as "xmlns:xsd"

                      xmlAttributes
                          upper(target_table) as "name"
                      xmlElement
                          "xsd:complexType",
                          xmlElement
                            "xsd:all",
                                xmlAgg(ELEMENT)
                          SELECT    xmlElement
                                      "xsd:key",
                                      xmlattributes
                                        uc.constraint_name as "name"
                                      xmlElement
                                        "xsd:selector",
                                        xmlattributes
                                          '.' as "xpath"
                                      xmlAgg
                                        xmlElement
                                          "xsd:field",
                                          xmlattributes
                                            ucc.column_name as "xpath"
                                        order by ucc.position
                          FROM      user_constraints uc
                                    JOIN      user_cons_columns ucc
                                    ON        ucc.constraint_name   =   uc.constraint_name
                          WHERE     uc.table_name                   =   upper(target_table)
                          AND       uc.constraint_type              =   'P'
                          GROUP BY  uc.constraint_name
                          SELECT    xmlElement
                                        "xsd:keyRef",
                                        xmlattributes
                                            a.constraint_name as "name"
                                        xmlElement
                                            "xsd:selector",
                                            xmlattributes
                                                c.table_name as "xpath"
                                        xmlAgg
                                            xmlElement
                                                "xsd:field",
                                                xmlattributes
                                                    d.column_name as "xpath"
                                            order by  c.table_name
                          FROM      all_constraints   a,
                                    all_cons_columns  b,
                                    all_constraints   c,
                                    all_cons_columns  d
                          WHERE     a.constraint_name   =   b.constraint_name
                          AND       a.constraint_name   =   c.r_constraint_name
                          AND       c.constraint_name   =   d.constraint_name
                          AND       a.table_name        =   upper(target_table)
              )This gives me the following error message: 00937. 00000 -  "not a single-group group function"
