Manipulating XML file using flex 2.0

Hi,
how to add contents in to xml file using flex 2.0, ie i
actually wants to write data in to a xml file, so that data to be
appended at the end of the file.
Kumar

You can't! Well, at least Flex cannot do this. All Flex can
do is send this data -- any data -- to the server and it's up to
you how you want to append this data to a file on the server.
You see, flex can't write to local files. If you looking for
client side file manipulation, take a look at Flex's desktop
brother call AIR!

How to edit/update data into an XML file using Flex and Actionscript

I can read an external xml file, please see the code below:
protected function button1_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
var GrowthChartsDataGrid:XML;
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("../GrowthChartsDataGrid.xml");
 loader.load(request);
 loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete)
function onComplete (event:Event)
 var loader:URLLoader = URLLoader(event.target);
 GrowthChartsDataGrid = new XML(loader.data);
 GrowthChartsDataGrid.GrowthChartGridView += <Month> {txtMonth.text} <Weight> {txtWeight.text} </Weight> </Month>
 texttesting.text = GrowthChartsDataGrid.toString();
I can read an XML file and can add an extra node and can display it in a text filed. But I want to update the XML file contents which will come from the txtMonth and txtWeight text boxes.
Please any suggestions???

First of all thanks for your quick reply .
I actually want to add another node inthe xml file. Files is at a local location and i can read the file and add an extra node (but I cant store this extra node in the actual XML file). But I want to save XML with the extra node.
For exmaple,
my current xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GrowthChartGridView>
 <Month> 1
 <Weight>3.5</Weight></Month>
<Month> 2
 <Weight>3.9</Weight></Month>
<Month> 3
 <Weight>4.5</Weight></Month>
</GrowthChartGridView>
and at run time, I can create a new node using the data from two textboxes at button click event.
 GrowthChartsDataGrid.GrowthChartGridView += <Month> {txtMonth.text} <Weight> {txtWeight.text} </Weight> </Month>
Now what I want to do is, I want to add this node back in to my XML. Therefore, the result I am looking for is, my local XML should update like this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GrowthChartGridView>
 <Month> 1
 <Weight>3.5</Weight></Month>
<Month> 2
 <Weight>3.9</Weight></Month>
<Month> 3
 <Weight>4.5</Weight></Month>
<Month> {txtMonth.text} <Weight> {txtWeight.text} </Weight> </Month> //I can read data from text boxes so its fine but I can not store this in to my original XML
</GrowthChartGridView>
Thanks

Unfortunately I don't have the
"org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_3.1.2.jar" file. On my computer
the folder is not set up the same way (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex
Builder 2\plugins) instead it is set up as (C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2\metadata\plugins) but I've looked in
everything and that file just isn't in there. I've re downloaded it
twice. Still not there. Is there anything else i can do.

Creating XML File Using xmldom Package

How can I create an XML file from scratch using the PL/SQL xmldom package?
I want to create an XML file using the xmldom package instead of building the individual tags as strings of VARCHAR2 character data. There is quite a bit of documentation regarding manipulating input XML files using DOM -- but not for creating XML files from scratch given known "tagnames" (<lastName>) and retrieved database "values" ("Smith").
<person>
<lastName>Smith</lastName>
</person>
Is there any documentation that you can recommend?
Thank you.

Here is an example.
The create_file procedure creates the file.
The other procedures are generic procs that can be used with any XML.

Loading XML files into flex application

Hi Im trying to load an xml file into my app. The only thing is that its not in the same directory as the application. I'm very new to flex/air and have read alot of articles but cant seem to figure out what i'm doing wrong. I have this so far
var data:File = new File("C:/listener/AuditTrail");
var Data:XML = new XML(data.data);
I dont even know if this is how you are supposed to do it but my ultimate goal is to load the xml and display it on a datagrid.
this is what my xml file looks like
<data>
<audit id="7011611">
<comment>Opened</comment>
<date>14261</date>
<time>79367</time>
<userid>20</userid>
<employee>JEFF SANCHEZ</employee>
</audit>
</data>
This is what my datagrid looks like
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid x="11" y="9" id="AuditTrailList" dataProvider="{Data.audit}" designViewDataType="flat" width="866" height="490">
<mx:columns>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Comments" width="400" dataField="comment"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Date" width="70" dataField="date"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Time" width="70" dataField="time"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="ID" width="55" dataField="userid"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Employee ID" width="90" dataField="employee"/>
</mx:columns>
</mx:AdvancedDataGrid>

Hi,
To load XML to an AdvancedDataGrid, you might want to take a look at this article:
Populating an AdvancedDataGrid from an XML file using HTTPService
Hope this helps,

What my program do is to get the encoding of XML files and convert them to UTF-8 encoding files, while I need this "encoding" information of the original XML document thus I can convert...
After reading specifications and JDOM docs, the truth turns to be disappointed, no function is provided to get this information in JDOM level 2(the current released one), while it's promissed that this function will be provided in JDOM level API....
Thanx all for your help and attention!!!

I had a similar error which when I searched, came up with this thread.
My issue was resolved after I discovered that my RTF template was not really RTF. It was sill in MS Word DOC format. This was discovered by reviewing two templates in NOTEPAD. The MS-DOC files have a lot of "special" characters in them. My RTF was not really RTF.
After doing a SAVE AS - RTF format, then the preview worked as expected.

Error while saving xml file using PDFDocument API

Hi,
I am trying to save xml file using byte array obtained from interactive form element in webdynpro java.
The file gets saved but I get fllowing error message when I open the file.
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
An invalid character was found in text content. Error processing resource 'http://uxjciesk.wdf.sap.corp:50000/irj/go/km/doc...
The code I am trying to achieve the functionality is:
byte[] byteArray = wdContext.currentContextElement().getPdfSource();
IWDPDFDocumentHandler pdfDocumentHandler = WDPDFDocumentFactory.getDocumentHandler();
IWDPDFDocumentAccessibleContext documentAccessibleContext = pdfDocumentHandler.getDocumentAccessibleContext();
documentAccessibleContext.setPDF(byteArray);
IWDPDFDocument pdfDocument = documentAccessibleContext.execute();
ByteArrayInputStream dataInputStream = (ByteArrayInputStream) pdfDocument.getPDFAsStream();
further, the datainputstream is used to store the file. I am able to save same xdp template in pdf file format successfully, the error only occurs for xml file storage.
Please, advise.

Hi Urvashi,
    Try this code

                    pdfSourceOutputStream.write(aByte);

Creating XML file Using Call Transformation

Hello Friends,
 I have searched before posting thread, couldnt find anything.
 I am creating an XML file using Call Transformation. My internal table has 3 date fields and some other fields. For some records I dont have values for the date fields. In that case my XML file is giving the date value as 0000-00-00 since I declared it as Date type. This value 0000-00-00 is not accepted by the middle ware as the valid date. I can not change it as String type as per the suggestion.
In that case I am advised to skip printing the date field tag if it doesnt have value.
 Is there any way to skip the date field if it is empty. Any Suggestions please ?.
Thanks
Lakshmi.

Hi,
I had exactly the same problem before. When you call a transformation there is an option called initial_components. According to SAP if you use initial_components = 'SUPRESS' the empty fields should not being generated on the XML.
Now, this didn't work for me and I have seen some people with the same problem. Here is how I solved this (maybe not the best way but it worked):
First: My fields are all CHAR in my table
Second: In the transformation, you can use conditional transformation to not display a tag if field is empty, here a piece of my transformation (I am using simple transformations):
 <tt:root name="ROOT"/>
 <tt:cond s-check="not-initial(ref('ROOT.L1_NM')) or not-initial(ref('ROOT.L2_NM'))">
 <TRNMTR_NM>
 <tt:cond s-check="not-initial(ref('ROOT.L1_NM'))">
 <l1_nm>
 <tt:value ref="ROOT.L1_NM"/>
 </l1_nm>
 </tt:cond>
 <tt:cond s-check="not-initial(ref('ROOT.L2_NM'))">
 <l2_nm>
 <tt:value ref="ROOT.L2_NM"/>
 </l2_nm>
 </tt:cond>
 </TRNMTR_NM>
 </tt:cond>
As you can see, I first check if the fields have values.
Hope it helps
