Java API 1.7 Released - getSite() fix, XSD 1.1 support

I have released a new version of the iTunesU Web Services API for Java, version 1.7. This release supports version 1.1 of the XSD, including the new UpdateGroup web service method, the ExternalFeed entity type, and the ExternalFeed, GroupType and AllowSubscription attributes for Groups.
This release includes a fix for the getSite() method, which broke due to a change in the behavior of the URL-based ShowTree method (/API/ShowTree/). It used to return an XML document with a Site element as its root; it now returns an ITunesUResponse.
The latest jar is available here:
http://code.google.com/p/itunesu-api-java/downloads/detail?name=itunesu-api-java -1.7.jar
The latest JavaDocs, including docs for the new ExternalFeed class, can be found here:
http://itunesu-api-java.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/doc/index.html
If you are experiencing problems with getSite(), I would like to hear if this release resolves those problems for you, or if you have further issues. I also recommend against using getSite() if you can avoid it, since it downloads the entire site tree into memory. Using getSiteMinimal() followed by getCourse(), getSection(), etc. will be much faster and use much less memory.
Thanks,
Dave

I noticed there were issues with setting permissions. I read the discussion posts on that, but I didn't see any notice of the problem being solved.
I'm getting an error when I try to set the permission for a course.
[org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content starting with element 'Permission'. The content must match '(("":Name){0-1},("":ShortName){0-1},("":Identifier){0-1},("":Instructor){0-1}, ("":Description){0-1},("":Group){0-UNBOUNDED},("":AllowSubscription){0-1},("":Th emeHandle){0-1},("":Permission){0-1})'.]

LinkedList crsTab = new LinkedList();
Group tab1 = new Group();
tab1.setName("Tab 1");
crsTab.addFirst(tab1);
nextCourse.setGroups(crsTab);
ITunesUResponse addCrs_resp = ituneConn.addCourse(sectionHandle, courseTemplateHandle, nextCourse);
successful = addCrs_resp.getAddedObjectHandle();
I never had this issue before, so I'm wondering what's causing it.
I'm currently using the 1.7 release of the Java API.

Oracle Spatial 10g R2 Java API

Hi All,
I have a JAVA tool said to be written for Oracle Spatial 10g R2 Java API which uses for example the class oracle.spatial.georaster.JGeoRaster. I have to port it to 11g R2. The tool is definitely written for an earlier version, because compilation fails on for example JGeoRaster.getProperties() method which is not present in the new API. For this new API I have a fine Javadoc documentation here:
http://download-llnw.oracle.com/docs/html/E11829_01/
I have searched for a similar one for 10g R2 but found only like
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14373/toc.htm
which misses the oracle.spatial.georaster package. Is there such a package and if so, where can I find docs for it?
thank you in advance, best regards: Balázs Bámer

Hi Balázs,
the GeoRaster Java API was first released with 11gR2. Your first link points to that, or this link:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e11829/toc.htm
your second link points to 10g Oracle Spatial Java API, which doesn't include any GeoRaster related API. your tool might have been developed based on the old INTERNAL georaster jar file, which is not supposed to be used by your java program. But if you do want the api doc, you can run javadoc or jdeveloper to find out the api from the old sdogr.jar file.

Bug report (and solution): adding multiple records through Java API in bulk

I have found some bugs in the Java API (version 4.1.25) that makes it impossible to add mulitple values in bulk to a RECNO database. The fixes are as follows:
MultipleEntry.java, line 80:
"DbUtil.int2array(curr_off, this.data, pos);"
should be replaced by
" DbUtil.int2array(recno, this.data, pos);"
MultipleRecnoDatabaseEntry.java, line 130:
"return append_internal(data, doff, dlen, recno);"
should be replaced by
"return append_internal(data, offset, len, recno);"
Regards,
Johan Walters

Hello,
It looks like there were some corrections to this area in the post 4.1 i.e. 4.2 release. And I do not see these same issues in the current 5.1.25 release. If you do find them in the current release, just let us know.
Thanks,
Sandra

Invalid Argument Exception on Java API's DB Close

When closing the database via the Java API's close method, I am getting an invalid argument exception... how can this be fixed... subsequent access to the DB causes the JVM to crash??
ERROR: An exception has occurred: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid argument

I had the same problem. I could fix it by carefully calling the delete() function on all those DBXML Xml..xyz objects that you create when you perform queries etc. It seems that those Java objects have some 'shadow' object in the underlying DLL and by calling delete() you free resources that remain otherwise assigned (maybe somebody with a C++ background who programmed this stuff?). Call delete() before the Java object gets out of scope. For instance:
results = mgr.query(collection,context,null);
XmlValue value;
try {
while ((value = results.next()) != null) {
XmlValue c = value.getFirstChild();
String ref = c.getNodeValue();
c.delete(); c = null;
value.delete(); value = null;
catch (Exception e) {
finally {
if (results != null) {
results.delete();
results = null;
Once i did this on all possible dbxml objects i used in my code, the java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid argument disappeared.

Java API's supported in the Jdeveloper, IAS, and RDBMS product components

If there are any technical errors or "mistatement of the facts" in this posting, please let me know about them ..
This article is being delivered in Draft form and may contain
errors. Please use the MetaLink "Feedback" button to advise
Oracle of any issues related to this article.
PURPOSE
This article describes the "Enterprise Java Beans" (EJB), "Java Server Pages"
(JSP) and servlets Application Programming Interfaces (API) supported by the
Oracle products, Jdeveloper, Internet Application Server (IAS) and the Oracle
RDBMS release 2 and release 3, also known as Version 8.1.6 and 8.1.7,
respectively.
SCOPE & APPLICATION
All parties interested in the Java API's supported by these products.
Java API's supported in the Jdeveloper, IAS, and RDBMS product components
JDEVELOPER
JDEVELOPER is Oracle's Java development tool designed for coding / development,
testing / debugging, and deployment of Java Applications to the IAS and
RDBMS platforms.
With the java software api's being in a constant state of evolution, each new
release of Jdeveloper adds support for the "then current" version of the java
software api's, if it does not already have it implemented.
JDEVELOPER SERVLET API JSP API EJB API
VERSION VERSION VERSION VERSION
3.2.X.X 2.2 1.1 1.1
3.1.X.X 2.1 1.0 1.0
NOTE :
Sun Microsystems and their advisory teams (Oracle is on it) is working on
"draft" specifications for the next version of all of these API's
EJB -------> http://java.sun.com/products/ejb/index.html
JSP -------> http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/index.html
Servlets --> http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/?frontpage-javaplatform
It is anticipated that future releases of Jdeveloper will continue to be
upgraded to include support for the next version of each api.

of tools, please review the "Internet Developer Suite" information located
on Oracle's technet web site at :
http://technet.oracle.com/products/index.htm
IAS
IAS is Oracle's next evolution of the web server and application server
product technology superceeding the Web Application Server (WAS) and Oracle
Application Server (OAS) product lines.
IAS SERVLET API JSP API EJB API EJE VERSION
VERSION VERSION VERSION VERSION SUPPORTED
9I(1.0.2) 2.2 1.1 1.1 817
8i(1.0.1-NT) 2.0 1.0 1.0 816
8i(1.0.0-UNIX) 2.0 1.0 1.0 816
The IAS product contains two Java Virtual Machines (JVM) within it's
architecture.
They are called :
1) APACHE JSERV servlet engine
2) ORACLE ENTERPRISE JAVA ENGINE (EJE)
APACHE JSERV servlet engine
The APACHE JSERV servlet engine is an EXISTING product licensed from the
apache group which supports the servlet api 2.0.ONLY.
The APACHE JSERV product does not support ANY JSP's unless the customer
installs a third party jsp engine.
The IAS 8i/9i which has the APACHE JSERV product embedded in it, comes with
Oracle's JSP engine (OJSP) already integrated into it. OJSP supports JSP's up
to the specific JSP engine version documented in the Oracle Universal
Installer (OUI) for the 8.1.7 RDBMS or the IAS products. It is also documented
in the product's release notes.
Oracle ENTERPRISE JAVA ENGINE (EJE)
The EJE formerly known as :
1) Oracle 8i Java Virtual Machine (JVM)
2) JSERVER component,
3) Aurora JVM
was originally releas ed in the RDBMS 8.1.5 database with jdk 1.1.6 based java
support.
The currently supported versions of the Oracle 8i RDBMS, versions 2 and 3,
also known as Version 8.1.6 and 8.1.7, respectively, provides a jdk 1.2.1
based java virtual machine support.
"EJE" Version 816
This EJE, found in rdbms 8.1.6 and IAS 8i, contains support for the ejb
api 1.0, corba, and java stored procedures.
"EJE" Version 817
This EJE, found in rdbms 8.1.7 and IAS 9i, contains support for the ejb,
corba, and java stored procedures as well as the Oracle Servlet Engine (OSE)
which provides support for the servlets 2.2 api and JSP 1.1 api.
Note :
EJB support in the "EJE" Version 817 has been upgraded to comply with the EJB
1.1 api specification which includes "entity beans" support.
What is the bottom line ??
1) Servlets deployed to the APACHE JSERV must comply with servlet api 2.0.
2) Servlets 2.1 or higher are only supported in EJE's OSE component found in
the rdbms 817 or ias 9i products. Servlets api 2.0 can also run in the OSE.

which jvm is used by jserv ?? EJE or a separate jdk ?
The Jserv servlet engine is running in a separate jdk JVM external to the EJE jvm which is embedded within the "database" component of ias and the RDBMS.
See the reference below for more details ...
if jserv only support old apis, why it is in oracle's products ?
i would assume that the oracle servlet engine was under development when ias 8i was released and became available in time for the ias 9i and rdbms 817 products.
looking back in history leads me to believe ias 8i was a migration path to get to ias 9i or rdbms 817.
Based upon the long history of new releases of every oracle product being upgraded with new features, it's reasonable to assume that these products will continue to evolve.
when I deploy a jsp how to deploy in the right servlet container ("EJE") ?
as documented in the reference below, you can deploy JSP's to either the apache jserv jvm or the EJE since the ORACLE JSP engine functionality is in both jvm's.
there are many posts where you can see that people have deploy in jserv and they have problems because they don't use the right container (servlet 2.0 instead of
servlet 2.2) http://technet.oracle.com:89/ubb/Forum2/HTML/006349.html
when ias 8i came out this was clearly an issue since servlet support was at api 2.0, and the current servlet api was probably at 2.1.
oracle clearly made every effort to get ias 9i released quickly to supply a servlet 2.1 and 2.2 capable engine to resolve this issue.
since ias 9i and rdbms 8.1.7 are available this is no longer an issue.
The reference below explains the architecture and understanding it would eliminate a lot of "deploy to the wrong ias 9i component" issues.
so why jserv is bundled with oracle 8i/9ias since EJE support the right api version ?
if in ias 9i release , oracle had removed the jserv component without any advance warning, many customers would have been very upset since oracle makes every attempt to give advance notice before removal of functionality.

Java API for running entire ".sql" files on a remote DB ( mySQL or Oracle)?

Hi,
Would anyone happen to know if there's a java API for executing entire ".sql" files (containing several different SQL commands), on a remote database server ?
It's enough if the API works with MySQL and/or Oracle.
Just to demonstrate what i'm looking for:
Suppose you've created sql file "c:/test.sql" with several script lines:
-- test.sql:
insert into TABLE1 values(3,3);
insert into TABLE1 values(5,5);
create table TABLE2 (name VARCHER) ENGINE innoDB; -- MYSQL specific
Then the java API should look something like:
// Dummy java code:
String driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
String url= "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/myDb";
SomeAPI.executeScriptFile( "c:/test.sql", driver, url);
Thanks.

No such a API, but it's easy to parse all sqls in a file, then run those command:
For instance:
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.Properties;
/* A demo show how to load some sql statements. */
public class testSQL {
private final static Object[] getSQLStatements(java.util.Vector v) {
Object[] statements = new Object[v.size()];
Object temp;
for (int i = 0; i < v.size(); i++) {
temp = v.elementAt(i);
if (temp instanceof java.util.Vector)
statements[i] = getSQLStatements( (java.util.Vector) temp);
else
statements[i] = temp;
return statements;
public final static Object[] getSQLStatements(String sqlFile) throws java.
io.IOException {
java.util.Vector v = new java.util.Vector(1000);

Can't display a Tile Layer using JAVA API V2 (based on HTML5)

Hi Experts,
I am trying to display a tile layer using JAVA API V2 but i get the below error and nothing shows after that.
MAPVIEWER-05501: Map tile layer not found. Check map tile layer name and/or data source name.
Source: OM.layer.Tilelayer.getTileLayerConfig
*[mvdemo.demo_map]*
I tried with chrome and firefox browsers which supports HTML5 but same issue. Here is the html code i am using
<html>
<head>

<meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=UTF-8'>
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://localhost:8282/mapviewer/jslib/v2/oraclemapsv2.js'></script>

var baseURL = "http://"+document.location.host+"/mapviewer";
var mapCenterLon = -122.45;
var mapCenterLat = 37.6706;
var mapZoom = 4;
var mpoint = new OM.geometry.Point(mapCenterLon,mapCenterLat,8307);
var map = new OM.Map(
document.getElementById('map'),
mapviewerURL: baseURL
var tileLayer = new OM.layer.TileLayer(

map.addMapDecoration(navigationPanelBar);
map.setMapCenter(mpoint);
map.setMapZoomLevel(mapZoom) ;
map.init() ;
</script>
</head>
</html>
Note: inside the body on load i use DIV Id = Map (i skipped that one line of code because it stops rest of the line from displaying in the thread)
However, I am successful in using the same tile Layer with JAVA API V1
Please share your thoughts as what could be the fix
Thanks
Nag

Nag,
inside the body on load i use DIV Id = Map (i skipped that one line of code because it stops rest of the line from displaying in the thread)please surround your code with [ c o d e ] [ / c o d e ] (without the spaces).
Secondly: this is probably more appropriate for the {forum:id=727} forum.

Thanks by advance for your help

Make sure you have the Oracle JDBC library setup in project parties and it's setup to export. The api's are fine. Have you looked at the BIPublisherIDE I wrote. All this code is already written for you. There is a manual on the site as well

Problem displaying Arabic characters in PDF using Java APIs

We are experiencing a problem when attempting to display Arabic characters within a PDF document using the Java APIs.
The relevant Java code is as follows:
RTFProcessor processor = new RTFProcessor("example.rtf" );
processor.setOutput( “example.xsl” );
processor.setExtractXLIFF(true);
processor.process();
ByteArrayOutputStream dataOut = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
DataProcessor dataProcessor = new DataProcessor();
dataProcessor.setDataTemplate( example.xdt" );
if( parameterValues != null && parameterValues.length > 0 )
setReportParameters( dataProcessor, parameterValues ); // method to set any report parameters from the parameterValues list.
dataProcessor.setConnection( jdbcConnection );
dataProcessor.setOutput(dataOut);
dataProcessor.processData();
FOProcessor foProcessor = new FOProcessor();
foProcessor.setLocale( locale );
foProcessor.setData( new ByteArrayInputStream( dataOut.toByteArray() ) );
foProcessor.setTemplate( “example.xsl” );
String xliffFileNameAndPath = getXLIFFFile( “example”, locale );
if( xliffFileNameAndPath != null )
foProcessor.setXLIFF( xliffFileNameAndPath );
foProcessor.setOutput( "example.pdf" );
foProcessor.setOutputFormat(
outputFormat == PDF_FORMAT ? FOProcessor.FORMAT_PDF : FOProcessor.FORMAT_HTML );
foProcessor.generate();
The method getXLIFFFile( ) gets the relevant XLIFF file for the supplied report locale (if it exists) – the three test files that we used were Italian (example_it_IT.xlf), Spanish (example_es_ES.xlf) and Arabic (example_ar_AE.xlf).
I imported the following JAR files from the XML Publisher release (version 5.6.2) into my Java application: collections.jar, i18nAPI_v3.jar, versioninfo.jar, xdocore.jar and xmlparserv2.jar.
The output is OK for all three translations in HTML format, using a charset of UTF-8, and for Italian and Spanish in PDF format. However, the Arabic characters display as question marks in PDF format. The same issue occurs if I stream the output as a byte array straight to the HTTP response rather than save within a file.
Note that the same RTF, XDT and XLIFF files produce the correct output in both HTML and PDF when executed within XMLPublisher.
Thank you

Hi
I had a similar issue with arabic chars. With PDF layout, chars were appearing properly when preveiwd on local m/c, but as I implement file on server, it was displayed as ?????. I had raised a TAR 5798348.993 with oracle about this and they suggested to apply patch 4028294 Oracle Sourcing J Rollup and then patch 4182914. But later my users changed requirement and i cud not apply the patch to test if it works fine.
But here, you have suggested that installing fonts would do. Is it really that simple? If yes, dont know what is that patch for which I was told to apply.

Help with Essbase 9 and the Java API

Hi, I am trying to connect to Essbase from a Java desktop application and I am unable to do so. I need to know if I am in principle doing the right things and if I have the correct environment set up.
We have a server with Essbase version 9.3.1. We normally use essbase via the Excel Addin, and I have already written Excel applications that utilise both the addin and the Essbase VB API. Now I need to connect to Essbase but from outside Excel and using the Java API. I have no idea what APS is nor does my Essbase Administrator.
My application has the following code (adapted from a post in this forum) -
public static void main(String[] args) {
String s_userName = "user";
String s_password = "password";
String s_olapSvrName = "ustca111";
String s_provider = "http://localhost:13080/aps/JAPI";
try{
IEssbase ess = IEssbase.Home.create(IEssbase.JAPI_VERSION);
IEssDomain dom = ess.signOn(s_userName, s_password, false, null, s_provider);
IEssOlapServer olapSvr = dom.getOlapServer(s_olapSvrName);
olapSvr.connect();
System.out.println("Connection to Analyic server '" + olapSvr.getName() + "' was successful.");
olapSvr.disconnect();
}catch(EssException exp){
System.out.println(exp.getMessage());
I am running my application on my computer, not on the Essbase server, and the username I am using is the same one I use (as a user of Essbase) via the Essbase Addin in Excel, not an admin login.
When I run the app I get:
"Cannot connect to Provider Server.Make sure the signon parameters are correct and the Provider Server is running."
Please can you confirm:
1) Do I need an admin login for my client application to connect to the Essbase server or can I use a normal read-access login, like the one I use in Excel?
2) Is the provider always the same regardless of the computer, i.e. "http://localhost:13080/aps/JAPI"; How do I know what this has to be? Where do I get this information from?
3) How can I make sure that the Server is running the necessary "Provider Server", is this just a service that will show on services.msc of the server? What should I ask the Essbase Administrator for him to tell me what I need?
Thank you very much.
Leo

Tim, when I look in my computer's Essbase installation path I can only find the following jar files (from the ones you have listed).
C:\Hyperion\AnalyticServices\JavaAPI\external\css\log4j-1.2.8.jar
C:\Hyperion\AnalyticServices\JavaAPI\lib\ess_es_server.jar
C:\Hyperion\AnalyticServices\JavaAPI\lib\ess_japi.jar
I do not have css-9_3_1.jar or interop-sdk.jar.
In order to try the embedded mode, I added the three jars I have to the classpath, and have re-built and ran with "embedded" as the provider. This is what I got in my output screen:
run:

Human Task Java API

Hi
I have a requirement to create human tasks without using soa. I am trying to use the Human task Java API. Using this API I can do all the operations like updating the outcome, adding/updating comments and updating assignee list but not able to create initial task. I am using initiateTask operation which requires task definition id. I dont know how to set this. Can anybody guide me
1. Can I create human tasks without using composite pure java api?
2. If I am able to create initial task what will be the task definition id? I tried to enter a new row in soa infra meta data table which did not work.
I really appreciate the help.
Thanks

Hi Sri
I have few Processes deployed to my SOA Domain and that too under different Partitions. For ease of maintenance, in EM Console under soa_infra node instead of default partition we can have our own Partitions also to deploy specific workflow projects under those partitions. If you don't have this thats ok.
I looked at Payload data for all the Tasks submitted by the first Initiator Task in EM Console, when we check the Flow Trace etc. Here is what I found for <taskDefinitionId> value for each of my different Processes. They do have some Pattern. So you had to use some sort of properties file to get these values so that if they are deployed to different partitions and with different versions, you do not have to modify your java code and recompile it. Just modify .properties file.
Anyhow, looks like the format for <taskDefinitionId> is something like this:
NameOfPartition + "/" + NameOfProcess + "!" + VersionNumber + "/" + NameOfInitiatorHumanTask
Here are some examples from my domain for some of the Process.
<taskDefinitionId>default/SalesQuoteProcess!1.0/EnterQuote</taskDefinitionId>
<taskDefinitionId>Ravi1_Partition/CreditReviewRequestProcess!1.0/HumanTaskCreditRequestor1</taskDefinitionId>
<taskDefinitionId>Jegga1_Partition/HolidayProcess!1.0/StartNewHolidayTask</taskDefinitionId>
You already tried hardcoding it I guess and it worked. Now try generating them dynamically using simple String appenders and sort of properties file to make it more dynamic. How often do we really change partition name or human task name itself or name of process itself. They are pretty much fixed. Now comes only the Version number. This can change with your new deployment if you want to have different version. So just read all these from .properties file.

Java.lang.SecurityException when trying to execute Workflow-Java-API from Servlet

I'm trying to call some of the Oracle Workflow-Java-API Classes/Methods from a servlet running on OC4J.
The following Code-Sample is exactly copied from the WFTest Example shipped with Oracle-Workflow:
wfDB = new WFDB(user, ident, "jdbc:oracle:thin:@", "host:1521:tnsstring");
String charset = System.getProperty("CHARSET");
if (charset == null) {
charset = "UTF8";
ctx = new WFContext(wfDB, charset);
if (ctx.getDB().getConnection() == null) {
throw new Exception ("Keine Verbindung zum Workflow");
On OC4J integrated in JDeveloper everything works fine when i run my test-servlet with this code.
On 9ias with OC4J running on a SuSE-Linux Server i get the following Error:
java.lang.SecurityException: class "oracle.apps.fnd.wf.WFContext"'s signer information does not match signer information of other classes in the same package

As you can see, the first Workflow-API-Object (WFDB) gets correctly instantiated. But the second one crashes.
The java.policy and java.security files are exactly identical on both machines, my PC and the Linux-Server.
Where might be the problem ?
How can we fix this ?
thanks in advance for any help
Ralf

okay, okay,
my/our own fault.
To prevent anyone else of makeing the same mistake, a short decription:
We stored the wf????.jar files inside the $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext directory.
The correct way is to let them inside $ORACLE_HOME/jlib dir of the oracle db and extend the classpath, respectively add the following lines to 'orion-application.xml' of the app.
<library path="$ORACLE_HOME/jlib/wfapi.jar" />
<library path="$ORACLE_HOME/jlib/wfjava.jar" />

GWT meets Flex: Java API for Flex

Hello people,
I m somedays away to release the version 2.1 of gwt4air. gwt4air is an open source project based on gwt (http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/) and provides a Java API to different platform where Java is not the primary language.
Version 2.0 added among other features support for Adobe AIR, Alive PDF, Pure PDF, Aswing and other GWT based UI libraries like EXT-GWT
With version 2.1 i added support for Flex(AIR and Browser). The goal of this approach is to make it easy for Java Developers to switch to Flex be leveraging a swing like API. But also to present an alternative to the classical Flex developement. The overall idea behind this is described here:
http://code.google.com/p/gwt4air/wiki/Beginn
A demo application ca be found here: http://gwt4air.appspot.com/
The application contains around 100 demos with source code illustrating the use of the api.
I ve tried to keep the API similar to the AS3 api so one could easely switch from AS3 to Java and vice versa
Note that this flex applicaton is entirely written in Java using gwt4air. No AS3 no MXML.
The application is still in alpha stage so please expect some errors.
The project home is located at:
http://code.google.com/p/gwt4air/
I m looking forward to hear what you think about this idea. Any inputs (good or bad) is really welcome
Help me make this an even better tool.
It s about time that Flex rocks the GWT world
cheers,
Alain

It looks like those genius @google are also thinking about a Java(GWT) API for Flash .

Glad to see that i m not a fool
Or alteast not the only fool that believe combining Java and Flash/Flex is a potent mix.

Java API 1.7 Released - getSite() fix, XSD 1.1 support
