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)?

Sax Parser for loading XML file

We have a requirment by which we need to load huge XMl file in our DB everyday.
THe XML file format is like --
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root>

This parser takes 2 hours to laod file of size around 8MB.
ANy suggestions on improving performance of the parser.
ANy other approach I should be taking to load this file into DB.
We are using ORacle 9i DB with Character set UTF 8.
Thanks!

String buf = (new String(ch, start, length)).trim();
if (thisElement != "root"){
if ((buf.length() == 0) && (thisElement !="") ){
It run ok!

Xml sax parser

Hi all,
I am newbie to xml. I am using SAX parser for parsing xml documents. I have to write a code which parses all types of xsd files(including which can contain inline , referenced or both). Can anyone help / guide me how to code a generic xsd parser??
Thanks in advance,

An XSD file is an XML file, so you can parse it using sax.
See :
http://java.sun.com/webservices/jaxp/dist/1.1/docs/tutorial/sax/2a_echo.html

Trying to use XML SAX parser with JDK2 ...

Hi,
I'm pretty new to Java.
I'm trying to write and use java sample using XML SAX parser. I try with XP and XML4J.
Each time I compile it give me a error message like
"SAX01.java:23: unreported exception java.lang.Exception; must be caught or declared to be
thrown
(new SAX01()).countBooks();
^
Note: SAX01.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -deprecation for details.
1 error"
For what I found, it seems that "deprecated" mean usage of old classes or methods. What should I do ?
Wait for the XML parser to be rewrite ? ....
Thank's
Constant

"SAX01.java:23: unreported exception
java.lang.Exception; must be caught or declared to be
thrown
(new SAX01()).countBooks();
^Do this
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
or do this
     try
                   first part of expression?(new SAX0()).countBooks();
     catch(Exception ex)
          System.out.println("problem "+ ex);
Note: SAX01.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -deprecation for details.
1 error"deprecation is just a warning if there are no errors elsewhere in your program it should compile fine, but if you want to find out how to change it do this:
javac YourClassName.java -deprecation
then look in the docs for an alternative.

XML SAX parser that support LexicalHandler

Hello,
I'm looking for an XML SAX parser that support a LexicalHandler.
I have xml files that are not well formed, ie: (&, <, >, etc...) characters within tags and I need to ignore them.
Anyone have a link to some opensource library ??
Thanks,
Samir

Don't waste your time. Using a LexicalHandler isn't going to help with parsing malformed XML. You should get the person who produced those files to replace them with correct XML.

XML - SAX Parsing Question

Hi,
I am parsing XML using SAX parser and fill the values into the HashTable ( like Key value pair ).. so i can get the vaues for a particular key using hash get function.
For the following XML. There are 2 "subscriberNumber" attribute, one is under "sn:Subscriber" and the another is under "sn:SubscriberChange".
I can able to put this values in hash table and when i print the Hash table it is printing as sn:subscriberNumber=[1234567890, 1234567890] .. But how will i know which one is from "sn:Subscriber" and which is from "sn:SubscriberChange"
This is the XML :
<sn:SubscriberNotification>
<sn:notificationSubType>1120</sn:notificationSubType>
<sn:Subscriber>
     <cng:PaymentType>PostPaid</cng:PaymentType>
     <sn:subscriberNumber>1234567890</sn:subscriberNumber>
</sn:Subscriber>
<sn:SubscriberChange>
     <sn:subscriberNumber>1234567890</sn:subscriberNumber>
</sn:SubscriberChange>
</sn:SubscriberNotification>
Any suggestion and pointers are really helpful
Thanks,
-Raj..

Try something like this:
import java.util.Stack;
import org.xml.sax.Attributes;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
import org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler;
class MyHandler extends DefaultHandler {
    Stack openTags = new Stack();
    public void startElement(String uri, String localName, String qName, Attributes attributes) throws SAXException {
        if (qName.equals("sn:subscriberNumber")) {
            String parentTag = (String)openTags.peek();
            System.out.println("Parent tag of this <sn:subscriberNumber> is : <" + parentTag + ">");
        openTags.push(qName);
    public void endElement(String uri, String localName, String qName) throws SAXException {
        openTags.pop();
}Regards

Why are all the events in the XML SAX parser not activated?

Hi everyone,
I have written a mini server that parses XML files into SQL queries.
Below is a segment of my code;
          try          {
               Class.forName( JDBC_DRIVER );
               myConnection = DriverManager.getConnection( DATABASE_URL, "username", "password");
               EventXMLParser myEXP = new EventXMLParser(directory, myConnection);
               File[] xmlFiles = directory.listFiles();
               for (File xmlFile : xmlFiles)               {
                    myEXP.XMLtoDB(xmlFile);
                    outWriter.println("File:" + xmlFile.getName() + " DONE");
          } catch (SQLException e)     {
               System.err.println("SQLException for establishing connection");
               e.printStackTrace();
          } catch (ClassNotFoundException e)     {

               System.err.println(e);
               e.printStackTrace();
          finally {
               outWriter.println("PARSING COMPLETED");
               outWriter.close();
     }Where the constructor EventXMLParser constructs the following:
     public EventXMLParser(File path, Connection connection)     {
          super();
          try     {
               this.XMLpath = path;

               this.XMLSAXhandler = new DefaultHandler(); //create a new own handler
               this.xr.setContentHandler(XMLSAXhandler);
               this.xr.setErrorHandler(XMLSAXhandler);
               //System.out.println("DEBUG: db_connection is " + db_connection.toString());

}     My question is: I have taken my SQL query generated by toSQL() method in events and it worked.
Here is the funny thing:
Everything is correct syntax wise: No complaints what soever
The mysql part works: Tested separately.
So I tend to think that the problem lies within the SAX parser. I have written SAX2 parsers on this machine before and they have worked too. I tried inserting println statements all over startElement endElement etc etc only to find out that the SAX parser did not call any of the methods that I overided!! Why is that so?
Can you guys spot where my SAX parser fails?

I see.
I try to correct this problem by removing super();
so right now my code looks like this:
     static Event temp = new Event(0, 0, "null", "null", new Date(), 0, "null", 0);
     static String CurrentElement = null;
     static File XMLpath;
     static Connection db_connection;
     static XMLReader xr;
     static DefaultHandler XMLSAXhandler;
     //Constructor,      Build the SAX Parser
     public EventXMLParser(File path, Connection connection)     {
          try     {
               this.XMLpath = path;
               this.db_connection = connection;
               this.xr = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader();
               this.XMLSAXhandler = new DefaultHandler(); //create a new own handler
               this.xr.setContentHandler(XMLSAXhandler);
               this.xr.setErrorHandler(XMLSAXhandler);
               //System.out.println("DEBUG: db_connection is " + db_connection.toString());
          catch (Exception e)     {
               System.out.println("Constructor Error!");
               e.printStackTrace();
     }This time, I created a new instance of default handler() which can be referenced by as the objects's XMLSAXhandler. However, that did not solve the problem, why does the problem still persist?
Right now, there is only one instance of a default handler created. So why does all my parsing event functions still get ignored?

SAX parser for PL/SQL

For a long time on technet the
PL/SQL parser release notes have
said that they will be supporting
SAX in a future release. Is there
any idea of when this support may
materialize? Or is Java the only
option for a parser in the db for
the near future that can handle large
documents?

What would you want to use as the implementation of the SAX2 ContentHandler interface in PL/SQL? Stored procedure-based callbacks? Just curious how you would envision this working. Your input is valuable to our future thinking in this area. Most teams using PL/SQL that want to use SAX have written Java Stored Procedures that use SAX internally inside the stored procedure (written in Java) but are not doing the SAX parsing with PL/SQL-based callbacks.

Generate xml source file for Oracle Order Capture Print Quote

Hi,
I am new to xml and need to work on creating templates for Print Quote.
I am trying to generate the xml source file for which I enabled the report in system administrator and set the output to XML and assigned to Quoting Reports responsiblity. I then assigned XML Report Publisher to the same responsiblity.
I ran the report (Print Quote) and then I am trying to run the XML Report Publisher but I cannot get the request id in the list of values.
I am able to generate xml source file for other reports like Printed Purchase Order etc.,
The view output for the (Print Quote) report is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- 
<ASOPQTER />
How do I get the xml source file? Or are there seeded templates that I can use to create more templates? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Ravi

Hi, I am in the same position - did this issue ever ger resolved by anyone. I have done a few XMLP reports successfully now using the Word add-in, but customising the Quote output differs from other standard reports.
If you look at the data definition for Quote it is a 'dummy' definition and has no XML file attached. Does anyone know how I can get the XML format for the report output?
Also the template uses XSL-FO ?!?!?! rather than RTF - not sure how to work with this, the Oracle docs are not very helpful in this regard either.
Has anyone successfully managed to customise the Quote print report? Many thanks,
Roger

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.

Only XML Parser v2 release 2.0.2.7 from Oracle works in 8.1.5, and this release does not support SAX2 unfortunately.
