Loading multiple XML files

My problem:
I have multiple XML files to load and each must pass a param
to the loadedXML function below. How do I do this correctly. I have
the loading part down, but I cannot get the param to pass.
I was trying to feed another param to the onLoad function but
it wouldnt take anything else except its "success" param. And I
know that its clearly wrong (the prefix param that is). Is there a
better way to do this? In my example I do not show the fact that I
AM going to load muliple files within a loop.... im really trying
to get that param passing to work.

got it working now.
i done a trace and it seemed the xml files were loading fine,
it was a problem somewhere else in my code.
Ive now ran into another problem.
Ive got a movie clip with my xml menu inside it and an
actionscripted blur filter on it.. so that when the user rollsover
the mc it goes from blurry, to clear and back again on roll out.
Problem is as the mc more or less thinks its a button, its
stealing focus from the menu.
Is there a way around this? or is there a better way of
coding a blurfilter menu other than rollover?
any help would be appreciated.
Chris.

Loading multiple XML files into one XMLList

I am working on an app where I will load a list of recipes. Each recipe is an XML file. I would have an XML file that lists the filenames that need to be loaded. I am assuming in can use one HTTPService and loop through this list, and set the url and do myService.send() until all the xml files have been loaded and concatenated into one xml list. True?
My main question here is how do I load each XML file and add it to the same XMLList?
Assume each XML file's root tag is <recipe>. I want to create an XMLList with the root <recipes> with each <recipe> as a first child.
Thanks.

Why don't you use the Data centric workflows which will help you to deal with multiple XML files as AS objects? Something like this
1. Create a HTTPService using Data menu -> Connect to HTTPService
2. create a operation getRecipe and enter your URL example URL: http://myserver/recipe?name=recipename
3. Use Configure Return Type to tell that this method returns a Recipe class
4. Use DataBinding to bind the result of this to a DataGrid
Call the following in a loop and
recipeName = myRecipes+ // All of your recipe names, Recipe is a ArrayCollecition
Recipe.setAt(i) = Svc1.getRecipe(recipeName);
At the end you would have a Recipe[]
This is one of the ways you could work instead of having a XMLListCollection and use e4x etc. to go through your collection.
Let us know if this helps, or you are looking for something else.
Thanks

Loading multiple xml files in parallel

I am using ODI 11g and able to execute a package, which can accept dynamic file names and schema name. This helps me to load multiple files with same structure in parallel.
However, I am getting issue when I try to drop logical schema at the end of the process usinf command "Drop Schema <schema name>", which I am creating before load process.
Error says that there are open connection, which are restricting the process to drop this schema. I have used disconnect command as well not it seems that connection still persists.
Can anyone advise how to forcefully drop the schema, which ODI have created in the memory?
Below is the error message
ODI-1228: Task drop_schema (Procedure) fails on the target XML connection book_xml.
Caused By: java.sql.SQLException: ODI-40700: Schema XSCHEMA cannot be dropped because it is referenced by one or more connections.

Check if Load Multiple XML file Complete. How ?!

Hello,
I want to create loading screen and i want to check if all my XML file ( class10.xml, class11a.xml & class11s.xml ) finish loading go to frame 2. How can i do that ?!
Regards,

No there are no core class doing that but it's quite easy to do it sequentially or to create a simple class that does that. That could go something like that:
1. pass an array of paths to your custom loader class:
var loader:MultipleLoader = new MultipleLoader(["path1.xml", "path2.xml"])
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, moveOn);
loader.load();
Then in your MultipleLoader class you can do:
public function load():void
     loadNextXML();
private function loadNextXML(e:Event = null):void
     if(!myxmlarray.length)
          dispatchEvent(e);
          return;
     var path:String = myxmlarray.shift();
     //code to load each xml from the array that was passed and stored in myxmlarray Array
     //you register Event.COMPLETE with loadNextXML method so you can cycle until the array is empty

Need to load multiple xml Files in ODI.

I have successfully loaded on file by creating a topology for that xml file only.
But I am facing issue when I created a variable based topology and now trying to load a different file.
The variable based topology is like
JDBC URL for XML Data Server is :
jdbc:snps:xml?f=#GLOBAL.GV_XML_FILENAME&re=MAIN&ro=false&case_sens=true&nobu=false&dod=true
For physical schema i have created :
SCHEMA : - #GLOBAL.GV_XML_PHYSICAL_SCHEMA
SCHEMA (WORK) : #GLOBAL.GV_XML_PHYSICAL_SCHEMA
Now I have created a package where I am initializing these tow variables first, and then calling the interface.
The package gets executed successfully when same filename and same schema name is passed for which I have created a hardcoded dataserver and physical schema.
Bue when I try to pass another xml file 2009D2.XML and a new physical shcema, name 2009D , it gives error.
ODI-1227: Task SrcSet0 (Loading) fails on the source XML connection Chrysler_var_ds.
Caused By: java.sql.SQLException: unexpected token: 2009

Please provide me any solution if any one of you have done this.
Also provide me step if i am missing any.

Thanks Alex, I was able to solve my issue with some help from your code. I rebuilt your valueObject class as a reference point to rebuild my arrays and parse the data into the grid. Works like a charm now. Thank you for your help. On a side note, I marked your blog as a regular read.

Loading an xml file from an xml file

I'm trying to load an xml file from an xml file, but I'm
having problems. My first xml file is really simple - it only
contains one attribute with the name of another xml file in it
(eventually I will have multiple xml files in here and run a loop
on them...this is why I want to load an xml file from an xml file).
Currently, with the code below, I can get the main xml file
to load ("main.xml"), but I cannot get the secondary xml files to
load FROM the main.xml.
I want to then take childNode values from the secondary xml
file and use them within my .swf in text boxes and whatnot.
Any guidance? I think I'm going wrong on the line where I'm
saying "i.newxml.load(i.attributes.location);"
- How can I get this to work?

johnypeter:
I tried changing the code inside the loop to use just
"newxml" instead of "i.newxml", and I declared with "var newxml =
new XML();" - was this what you were thinking?
kglad:
The reason I tried to use the loadXML() function in the loop
was so that for each node in my "main.xml" it would load the new
xml file listed - this is a no-no? Do you have any ideas as to what
I could do?
For the for-loop, what should I change in it? I'm not great
with loops so I tried to modify some code from another loop I found
in another forum thread - not the right way to do it here?
Also, what should I trace? The value of the _root.address, or
i.attributes.location? I have created dynamic text boxes on my
stage to see if the correct value from the xml file loads (ie. the
name of the xml file within the xml file) and it does, but now I
don't know how to put that information into ANOTHER loadXML()
function and get the node information from it - does that make
sense???
Below are the examples of the xml files I am using. In the
first one, main.xml, I will have a list of multiple xml files, each
with the same nodes and elements as in the details.xml file
(different values, of course).
This is just to give you an example of what I'm trying to
accomplish - pulling ALL the addresses and phone numbers from
multiple xml files. I cannot manually collect this information, as
it is dynamic, and will be updated in each individual details.xml.
I was hoping to collect the information by simply adding to and
updating ONE xml file - main.xml.
Do you think this can be done? Am I going about it the wrong
way? I'm quite limited in AS knowledge, which is why I'm piecing
together code from other posts!

Getting data from multiple XML Files

Could any one please shed some light about the best way to
read multiple external xml files through Flex? We haveabout 100
different xml files (of which only few are randomly accessed by the
users).
I tried implementing the following generic function which
takes a filename but when debugging it, it seems that the handler
never gets call after executing the service.send() line! I will
greatly appreciate your help!!!
public function fetchFileContent(fileName:String):void{
//this method is called upon clicking on a button
var service:HTTPService = new HTTPService();
service.url = "filePath/" + fileName ;
service.useProxy = false;
service.resultFormat = "e4x";
service.addEventListener ("result",fileRetrievalHandler)
service.send();
public function fileRetrievalHandler(evnt:ResultEvent):void{
fileContent = evnt.result.feed; //this line never gets
executed

Try adding a fault handler and seeing if that fires. Also,
since you're
using HTTPService instead of URLLoader, be aware that this
probably won't
ever work from your development environment unless you've
either changed the
output directory to go to the server or you've changed some
compiler flags
to allow you to get local and network access at the same
time. This is why
I always use URLLoader to load in XML files at a relative
path...it just
works, without my needing to change anything.

XML Parse error while loading an XML file

HI Folks,

2) When I run my job i get the same pares error - with details as under..

Pierre,
Depending on the object "myLastFile", the method openDlg might not even exist (if the myLastFile object is not a File object, for instance). And I do not see any need for the myLastFile anyhow, as you are presenting a dialog to select a file to open. I recommend using the global ChooseFile( ) method instead. This will give you a filename as string in full path notation, or null when no file was selected in the dialog. I am not sure what your ExtendScript documentation states about the return value for ChooseFile, but if that differs from what I am telling you here, the documentation is wrong. So, if you replace the first lines of your code with the following it should work:
function openXMLFile ( ) {
var filename = ChooseFile ( "Choose XML file ...", "", "*.xml", Constants.FV_ChooseSelect );
While writing this, I see that Russ has already given you the same advice. Use the symbolic constant value I indicated to use the ChooseFile dialog to select a single file (it can also be used to select a directory or open a file - but you want to control the opening process yourself). Note that this method allows you to set a start directory for the dialog (second parameter). The ESTK autocompletion also gives you a fifth parameter "helplink" which is undocumented and can safely be ignored.
Good luck

Not a perfectly framed question. How do you want to load the XML file? Hoping you want to parse the xml file and load it into a table you can do this.
This is the xml file
karthick% cat emp_details.xml

An example about how to load a XML file

Hi,
I've been working on Oracle for many years but fot the first time I was asked to load a XML file into a table.
As an example, I've found this on the web, but it doesn't work.
Can someone tell me why? I hoped this example could help me.

before I've created a
create directory test_dir as 'c:\esterno'; -- where I have my acct.xml

I've tried this but it doesn't work:
DECLARE

BEGIN
insert into xxrp_acct_details (status_code, status_remarks, segment_number, remarks)

Thanks in advance!

Hello,
Your code is not readable (no code tags).
Anyway, you can use SQL*Loader to load a XML document into a table.
Here is the link of the documentation with both description and an example at the end of the
article.

My oracle version is 10gR2 Express Edition
I do need a script for loading xml files into a table as soon as possible, Give me please a simple example for understanding and that works on 10gR2 Express Edition
Thanks in advance!

The reason your first SQL statement
select x1.status_code,
        x1.status_remarks,
        x2.segment_number,
        x2.remarks
from xmltable(
'/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/HEADER'
passing acct_doc
columns header_no      for ordinality,
          status_code    number        path 'STATUS_CODE',
          status_remarks varchar2(100) path 'STATUS_REMARKS'
) x1,
xmltable(
'$d/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/DETAILS[$hn]/DETAIL'
passing acct_doc as "d",
          x1.header_no as "hn"
columns segment_number number        path 'SEGMENT_NUMBER',
          remarks        varchar2(100) path 'REMARKS'
) x2
returns the error you noticed
PL/SQL: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got NUMBER
is because Oracle is expecting XML to be passed in. At the moment I forget if it requires a certain format or not, but it is simply expecting the value to be wrapped in simple XML.
Your query actually runs as is on 11.1 as Oracle changed how that functionality worked when 11.1 was released. Your query runs slowly, but it does run.
As you are dealing with groups, is there any way the input XML can be modified to be like
<ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK>
<ACCOUNT_GROUP>
<HEADER>....</HEADER>
<DETAILS>....</DETAILS>
</ACCOUNT_GROUP>
<ACCOUNT_GROUP>
<HEADER>....</HEADER>
<DETAILS>....</DETAILS>
</ACCOUNT_GROUP>
</ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK>
so that it is easier to associate a HEADER/DETAILS combination? If so, it would make parsing the XML much easier.
Assuming the answer is no, here is one hack to accomplish your goal
select x1.status_code,
        x1.status_remarks,
        x3.segment_number,
        x3.remarks
from xmltable(
'/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/HEADER'
passing acct_doc
columns header_no      for ordinality,
          status_code    number        path 'STATUS_CODE',
          status_remarks varchar2(100) path 'STATUS_REMARKS'
) x1,
xmltable(
'$d/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/DETAILS'
passing acct_doc as "d",
columns detail_no      for ordinality,
          detail_xml     xmltype       path 'DETAIL'
) x2,
xmltable(
'DETAIL'
passing x2.detail_xml
columns segment_number number        path 'SEGMENT_NUMBER',
          remarks        varchar2(100) path 'REMARKS') x3
WHERE x1.header_no = x2.detail_no;
This follows the approach you started with. Table x1 creates a row for each HEADER node and table x2 creates a row for each DETAILS node. It assumes there is always a one and only one association between the two. I use table x3, which is joined to x2, to parse the many DETAIL nodes. The WHERE clause then joins each header row to the corresponding details row and produces the eight rows you are seeking.
There is another approach that I know of, and that would be using XQuery within the XMLTable. It should require using only one XMLTable but I would have to spend some time coming up with that solution and I can't recall whether restrictions exist in 10gR2 Express Edition compared to what can run in 10.2 Enterprise Edition for XQuery.

How to load a XML file into the database

Hi,
I've always only loaded data into the database by using SQL-Loader and the data format was Excel or ASCII
Now I have to load a XML.
How can I do?
The company where I work has Oracle vers. 8i (don't laugh, please)
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Tough job especially if the XML data is complex. The have been some similar question in the forum:
Using SQL Loader to load an XML File -- use 1 field's data for many records
SQL Loader to upload XML file
Hope they help.

Loading Multiple Flat File in to BI System with one InfoPackage

Greetings,
i have developed a routine to Load Multiple Flate File in one InfoPackage, but it doesn't work. Only the Last File are loaded. Who can Help me?
Loading 'R:\Verzeichnis \ing_wan_b_002.fall.csv' to 'R:\Verzeichnis \ing_wan_b_240*.fall.csv'

Hello Jens,
you have to process the InfoPackage 239 times. Your routine would be executed once during one processing of the InfoPackage. This would run the WHILE statement and end up with the last filename after 239 iterations.
Either try to concatenate the files you want to load (if possible) and load them in one go. Alternatively you could try to use a process chain to run the InfoPackage 239 times.
Kind regards,
Christoph

Loading an xml file from jws : a nightmare !

Hi all:
I'm trying to load a xml file packed inside a jar file, and when i call getresource it keeps always returning null !!!
When i run the application (not in JWS) the file is loaded, but when i run it from a jnlp file with jws no !!
I tried all possible solutions wihout success :(
the last portion of code i used is :
ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
     URL xmlFile=cl.getResource("configure.xml"); why is it working when run from Eclipse but fails when using jws ?
I packed all my .class files together with xml file in one jar.
please help me ! this stuff is driving me crazy :(
thanks.

Hi phasse !
Yes I've fortenatly managed to solve my problem .here is the desription:
Actually my problem was not with loading the xml file but in reading it .
my problem was in the statement builder.parse(xmlFile.getPath()); this will not work with jws .I replaced this with : Document document = null;
          try {
                ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
               DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory
                         .newInstance();
               DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
                  document=builder.parse(cl.getResourceAsStream("resources/configure.xml"));I would suggest to use ClassLoader and getResourceAsStream("xmlfile") method .
I hope this would be helpfull for you .Good luck !
