JAXB v. processing instructions

Hey,
I've been trying JAXB and everithing works fine, only question rised up that is there a way to get/process/generate processing instructions via JAXB? Or even if it is reasonable (since XSD doesn't seem to suport processing instructions).
If there isn't good way to implement processing instructions in JAXB then is there a good pattern how to do a work-around?
regards,
Hardi

In a Schema the <xs:appInfo/> element specifies the instruction for the application.
<xs:annotation>
<xs:appinfo>
<fn:applicationInstruction>
Instruction for Application
</fn:applicationInstruction>
</xs:appinfo>
</xs:annotation>

JAXB: How do I add a processing instruction?

Hi there
I am using XML with JAXB in a client/server environment. On the response of from the server to the client, I want to include a processing instruction in the XML response to indicate a stylesheet associated for example:
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="test.xsl"?>
Does anybody have any ideas on how to include a stylesheet while constructing the jaxb object? Or must this declaration be included in the building schema???
Please help?
Thanks
Glen

this is how I do it in jwsdp 1.4:
marshaller.setProperty("com.sun.xml.bind.xmlHeaders", "<?xml-stylesheet type=\"text/xsl\" href=\"checker.xslt\"?>");
This constant is defined as private in the generated marshal class.
as of now this looks like an undocumented feature.

Updating a XML document with a processing instruction

Greetings Guru's
I have a fully functional XML database solution for our new system. The only thing left is for me to update a xml document in the database with a processing instruction to find the style sheet (JAXB strips it out when the XML must go back into the database).
I can update complete nodes and node elements in the xml document using updateXML in a regular update statement, but I do not know how to add the following processing instruction to my documents.
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="/RASWEB/JIT_REPORT.xslt"?>
[pre]
Thanks in advance

Error while creating process instruction sheet in COR2

While creating Process instruction sheet, the following error is occuring. Please guide me to resolve the issue.
Define variable QTYPRODUCED for default value
Message no. CPOC110
Diagnosis
In the process instruction, variable QTYPRODUCED is defined for the value that you want the system to propose when data is entered in the PI sheet. This value does, however, not exist because it has not yet been defined as a variable.
If you want to use a variable in a process instruction, however, you must first have defined it in a preceding process instruction or in the same process instruction.
Procedure
Define variable QTYPRODUCED in one of the preceding process instructions or in the same process instruction.
Define Variable

1. Assign characteristic PPPI_VARIABLE to the process instruction before the message characteristic to which the variable is to refer
2. Assign the required variable name to characteristic PPPI_VARIABLE.

How to print process instruction in process order.

Hi dudes,
,y client is not having Process management interface, but they want to maintain process instruction for phases in recipe and want to take print of process instructions in process order after release process order.
Please explain the path for printing process instructions copied into process order.
if some one assign PIs to phase in recipe, will control recipes be created after release of process order.
Regards
Daniel

The easiest way to do what you want is to actually create the PI sheet and then print it off from the view PI sheet transaction (CO60). This is then all standard functionality.
to do this you will need to set the configuration to create the control recipe when the process order is released and send it to a recipe destination.

Process instructions for particular process order.

Hi SAP gurus,
How can I find table level data of process instructions (Like READ 1 , READ2 , INSTR ) maintain for particular process order.
If should not with respect to recipe but it should be respect to process order.
Can any Plz buddy explain me the chain of tables starting from order number?
Best Regards,
Parag Save

Hi...
i could not find the table for the relationship u r looking for... but i would suggest the following...
Go to SE16.. press F4 in the table list...go to the application help... their you will find tables for each module... even for PP you will find table specific to process industry... this you can search ur own what can be relevant for ur requirement... finally u can use SAP query to join some table to the get the information u want....
Try this...hopw it should work for u...

Process Instruction (PI) Sheet text (Browser version)

Our Process Instruction (PI) Sheet information is stored in the text tables (STXH/STXL) under TDOBJECT = 'COPOC' and TDID = '0001', but has a cryptic TDNAME key value. We use the 'browser' PI Sheet display version, not the ABAP base display version which stores the PI data on tables COCHP (Header data) and COFTP (PI Sheet: Process Instructions). Function Module COP0_DISPLAY_PI_SHEET would be used to display the ABAP PI Sheet information. During debug of tcode CO60 (Find PI Sheet), it appears that the Control Recipe (CRID) value is used to create the TDNAME key value via Classes/Methods. Unfortunately, accessing the text thru the different Classes does not seem straight forward. Does anyone have code/logic to extract the PI Sheet text directly using the CRID in a more simpler procedure?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
jm

Hi,
use this Function module to get the text.
COCB_CONTROL_RECIPE_GET_DETAIL pass the control recipe ID.
try this also..
COCB_CONTROL_RECIPE_GET_TEXTS

Process instruction characteristics and process messages

Hi,
Can anyone tell me why process instruction characteristics is required when only process message characteristics are displayed in PI sheets (input or output).
Regards
Joe

Hi,
Answer is already there in your question.
and that is
(input or output)
Now you creates the one Process Message characteristic let's it is Temperature.But how it's value comes in the PI Sheet (As Ouput or Input manually by user) that is decided by that Process Instruction Characteristic.
Now when you creates the Process Instruction Category (O12C) except type 0 you have choice of creates it by using help of Process Assistant.This Assistant assigns the Process Instruction Characteristic to the process Massage Characteristic automatically when you select the specific radio button or Activate the check box during that PI category creation.
For Example when you creates the PI category Type 2 using Assistant.Here after naming first screen comes to you is to define type of Process data Request.Here when you select the radio Button for Simple process data request then indirectly you assign the process Instruction characteristic PPPI_DATA_REQUEST_TYPE and its Value comes as Simple.
But when you create the PI category type 0 you have to assign this PI Characteristic manually because its Universal Category and there is no assistant which helps you.

Dhaval

Automatic Process Instructions - config trnx O10C

Automatic process instructions and messages are generated when the control recipe is created. These created instructions have an associated field "Line Number of Process Instruction" (field AFFTD-FTRNR). This field should designate the "sequence of process instructions within a phase".
I get only 2 values in this field, 0000 and 9999.
This works for PI Sheets. Internally SAP has a way to manage it.
Send to a control system ten times, phase 0020, instruction "9999 ACONS_1" ... The external system will get lost.
Is there a way to control the sequence of this number?
Thanks in advance.

Seeking for API to deal with XML processing instructions

Hi all,
I have a requirement to list all the processing instructions inside a xml document.
E.g. For the document
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<?AAA att1="att 1"?>
<?BBB?>
<?CCC?>
<body>
<empty>True</empty>
</body>
I need to print out PIs AAA, BBB, CCC.
Two solutions i can find are:
1. to treat the doc as a string and do a pattern search for <?*?>.
2. use IF_IXML_DOCUMENT to traverse all the nodes and check their node types against IF_IXML_NODE=>CO_NODE_PI_PARSED and TYPE = IF_IXML_NODE=>CO_NODE_PI_UNPARSED.
However, I am wondering if there's any xml API to deal with XML PIs.
During my research on this, i got IF_IXML_DOCUMENT. It provides two creation APIs for XML PI: CREATE_PI_PARSED and CREATE_PI_UNPARSED. However, there is no corresponding getter API found.
Does anybody know if there is such one?
Thanks in advance.

Never do yourself down Richard.
Leave that to other people.
It's quite common for smart developers to think they're not as good as they are.
I coach a fair bit and it's a surprisingly common feeling.
And to repeat.
Never use anything ends .. provider. They're for trivial demo apps. Transform xml into objects and use them. Write it back as xml. Preferably, use a database.

XML parsing error: xml processing instruction not at start of external entity (error code 17)

I created a form and recieve the filled in form by email from participants. It has always worked in the past. Recently when importing data into the master form (from filled in forms in xml files sent by applicants) I am getting this error message..."xml processing instruction not at start of external entity (error code 17), line 2, column 1...." pointing to the file of data (xml) I am trying to input. If I pull up old data forms (from 2009) they work, but now I am getting this error. I run Adobe Design Premium CS3 for Windows. Can anyone tell me what to do to fix?

XML Processing Instructions

Hi,
I have two questions about how the XML class in AS3 works.
First, does the XML class care about the initial processing instruction when created from a string like this?:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<painting>
<img src="madonna.jpg" alt='Foligno Madonna, by Raphael'/>
<caption>This is Raphael's "Foligno" Madonna, painted in
<date>1511</date>–<date>1512</date>.
</caption>
</painting>
Second, how can I add that procession instruction to an XML object that I am working with so that toXMLString() returns a string that looks like the above XML? (So that it includes the processing instruction.)

Hi!
Normally you won't see processing instructions when working with AS3 and XML but you can change that using the following line of code:
XML.ignoreProcessingInstructions = false;
If you will, you can also see your comments by using the following:
XML.ignoreComments = false;
I think it's usual to use those lines inside your package body, even before your imports but I think you could have it anywhere else (even outside your package body I think).
Hope it helps.
edit: don't forget you can manage those items as a XMLList too...

How to use System Variable SY_ROW in the Process Instruction Category

Hi ,
I want to assign a value of System variable SY_ROW to a Normal Variable in the Process Instruction Category and use it in the formula. Please help me with the Syntax in the Process Instruction Category to get the System Variable: SY_ROW value into a Variable.
Thanks,
SV

Hello,
You can use these variables in formulas or, for example, to pass on certain pieces of information to a function module. How the function called by the function module behaves depends on the type of information passed on.
SY_ROW is used to view the current Table line.
Please look into the below link for more details on syntax :

XSLT processing instructions ignored, and namespaces excluded

Hi folks,
I am developing a BPEL process and created the following XSLT:

I dont get it, Im using jdk1.4.0, and you get the processing instruction coming through, but I dont...?

OSB Proxy Service - ignore XML processing instructions (PIs)

Hello,
I've got a proxy service in OSB that takes any XML, transforms it, and passes it through to a business service. i.e. it just has a simple routing node containing something like:
Route to [ BusinessServiceDB ] invoking [ merge ]
Replace [ node contents ] of [ undefined XPath ] in [ body ] with [ XQuery Resource... ]
This works fine until the XML contains a processing instruction other than the standard XML version one; <?XML...?>. So if the first line (or first line after the XML version, if present) contains a PI (e.g. <?some-app-specific-instruction?>), then the proxy service passes nothing through to the Business Service.
Well, I guess it assumes that the <?some-app-specific-instruction?> is the entire node contents, and so effectively passes through nothing that matches in the XQuery code...
Is there a setting or easy way to make OSB globally ignore PIs? Or will I have to do something with the Replace, e.g. define the XPath or variable bindings differently?
Cheers...

Thanks, I will do that...once I've found out what our support ID is.
The problem is easily repeatable in less than five minutes - all you have to do is create an 'Any XML' JMS proxy service (with all settings as defauts), and just have an empty route node in the message flow.
Then all you do is try the test console with something like "<blah>test</blah>" as the payload; on the results you will see the correct XML inside the soapenv body when you expand: receiving request > Initial Message Context > $body. Then repeat the test with"<?something?><blah>test</blah>", which will only pass through the soapenv:Body tag with no contents.
I presume this is not expected behaviour? i.e. OSB isn't meant to try the processing instruction, then pass through the results of that? I can't imagine it would...
Anyway, as I say, I will raise the support request...but if anyone that is on a version above 10.3.1 has time to quickly run this test and let me know the results, I'd be really grateful.
