MySQL data into XML for DW CS3

Hi.
I have been developing mainly with the MySQL/ php frameworks,
but am keen to integrate MySQL data via SPRY. if I understand
correctly, data can only be in XML format to be available for the
SPRY features.
So my question is, how can/ what is the best practise for
creating XML data from a MySQL database, one that does not have to
be exported/processed by a user everytime data changes in the db.
Would InteraKt's XML import/export accomplish this or is
there any facilities from within DWCS3?
Many Thanks,
M Turner

XML generated this way?
In the Spry XML Data Set dialog box, click the Browse button
to navigate
to the page that generates the XML on the fly. By default,
the Select
XML Source dialog box displays only XML files. Click the
Files of type
drop-down menu to select All files (*.*). You can then select
a PHP,
ASP, or ColdFusion file.
As long as you have a testing server running locally, DW CS3
will
generate the XML schema correctly when you click Get schema
in the Spry
XML Data Set dialog box.

How to Convert internal table data into xml and xml data into internal tab

Hi Guys,
I have a requirement that i have to convert the internal table data into xml format and viceversa . for my requirement i came to know that i have to use Transformations concept. i done the converting the data from internal table into xml data by using standard Tranformations. My Question is
1) Can i use same Transformation to convert the xml data into abap internal table. if it is possible then how ???
2) Is it possible using the standard Transformation or I have to go for XSLT approach
Please help me out from this guys,
Thanks and Regards
Koti

Hi Koti,
This is possible. There is a link. With the help of this link you can convert ABAP data to XML and vice versa.

Getting Data INTO XML

I'm trying to create a class to build an XML file from data that I'm setting inside the class. I'm using a ContentHandler to put the data into a SAXParser. Now I need to use a transformer to put the data into XML. My problem is, it's calling for an InputSource as a SAXSource and I'm not sure how to get the data from the ContentHandler to an InputSource. Can anyone help me with this? I've tried the tutorial and it wasn't much help.
Linda Shaffer

You are sending a stream of SAX events to your ContentHandler? By which I mean, you are calling its startElement() method and so on? If so, then here's some code that I use to transform that virtual XML via XSLT:TransformerHandler handler = // a TransformerHandler using that XSLT
handler.setResult(new StreamResult(whereverYourOutputGoes));
SAXParserFactory spf = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
XMLReader reader = spf.newSAXParser().getXMLReader();
reader.setContentHandler(handler);
reader.setProperty("http://xml.org/sax/properties/lexical-handler", handler);
reader.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces", true);
reader.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes", false);That's all. The TransformerHandler object is the one on which you should be calling startDocument() and so on; as soon as you call endDocument(), the transformation and output will take place.
If you aren't transforming, just outputting, then use an identity TransformerHandler.

How to write data into xml through web service

Hi,
I have a requirement to write the data into xml through a web service .send me related links and sample code if any.

hi kiran,
write the data into xml : We need suitable set of java Beans for handling WebService Data.
However, there are cases when you may prefer an alternate mapping, or when there just isn't a well-defined mapping for your particular schema construct (xsd:choice is a common example). For these cases, IBM® WebSphere® has introduced a new feature called Custom Data Binding that allows you to integrate alternate data binding technologies like JAX-B, EMF/SDO and XML beans, as well to define your own XML schema to Java mappings. This article provides an overview of the technology and how you can get started integrating it into your application.

Outbound oracle data into xml file

Hi Odie,
Your previous inputs for xml inbound was working fine, in the similar way now I need outbound the oracle apps data into .xml file format. For that I've written one sample script like this. I thought of making use of the utl_file option in Oracle apps.
declare
l_log_handle UTL_FILE.FILE_TYPE;
l_log_name varchar2(50);
l_path_2 varchar2(40);
l_global_file varchar2(50);
l_time number:=1;
cursor cur1 is
select xmltype(cursor(select * from fnd_menus where rownum <101)) a from dual;
--select menu_id from fnd_menus where rownum<100;
begin
BEGIN
SELECT DECODE (INSTR (VALUE, ','),
0, VALUE,
SUBSTR (VALUE, 1, (INSTR (VALUE, ',', 1)) - 1)
INTO l_path_2
FROM v$parameter
WHERE NAME = 'utl_file_dir';
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Error while getting Unix Path ' || SQLERRM);
END;
l_log_name := 'XGBIZ_'||TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'YYMMDD')||l_time;
l_log_name := CONCAT(l_log_name,'.xml');
l_global_file := l_log_name;
l_log_handle := UTL_FILE.FOPEN(l_path_2,l_log_name,'W');
for cur2 in cur1 loop
UTL_FILE.PUT_LINE(l_log_handle, cur2);
end loop;
utl_file.fclose_all;
EXCEPTION
WHEN UTL_FILE.INVALID_OPERATION THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Invalid Operation For '|| l_global_file);
UTL_FILE.FCLOSE_ALL;
WHEN UTL_FILE.INVALID_PATH THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Invalid Path For '|| l_global_file);
UTL_FILE.FCLOSE_ALL;
WHEN UTL_FILE.INVALID_MODE THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Invalid Mode For '|| l_global_file);
UTL_FILE.FCLOSE_ALL;
WHEN UTL_FILE.INVALID_FILEHANDLE THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Invalid File Handle '|| l_global_file);
UTL_FILE.FCLOSE_ALL;
WHEN UTL_FILE.WRITE_ERROR THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Invalid Write Error '|| l_global_file);
UTL_FILE.FCLOSE_ALL;
WHEN UTL_FILE.READ_ERROR THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Invalid Read Error '|| l_global_file);
UTL_FILE.FCLOSE_ALL;
WHEN UTL_FILE.INTERNAL_ERROR THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Internal Error');
UTL_FILE.FCLOSE_ALL;
WHEN OTHERS THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Other Error '||'SQL CODE: '||SQLCODE||' Messg: '||SQLERRM);
UTL_FILE.FCLOSE_ALL;
end;
when running this script I am getting error
ERROR at line 30:
ORA-06550: line 30, column 2:
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'PUT_LINE'
ORA-06550: line 30, column 2:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
if in the cursor declaration happen to use 'select menu_id from fnd_menus ' a plain record then it is successfully creating.
If tried again revert to actual select statement ' select xmltype(cursor(select * from fnd_menus where rownum <101)) a from dual'
then its erring out as above said.
Please give me your valuable inputs in this regard.
Thanks & Regards
Nagendra

Hi,
There are multiple ways to generate XML documents from relational data.
Here are some :
-- SQL/XML functions : XMLElement, XMLAgg, XMLAttributes etc.
-- DBMS_XMLGEN package
select dbms_xmlgen.getXML('SELECT * FROM scott.emp')
from dual;-- XMLType constructor over a REF CURSOR (the one you chose)
select xmlserialize(document
         xmltype(
           cursor(
             select *
             from scott.emp
         as clob
from dual;-- From a DBUriType
select xmlserialize(document
         dburitype('/SCOTT/EMP').getXML()
         as clob
from dual;-- From XQuery using ora:view function
select xmlserialize(document
         xmlquery('<ROWSET>{ora:view("SCOTT","EMP")}</ROWSET>' returning content)
         as clob indent size = 1
from dual;If a column is NULL in the result set, those methods (except XMLElement) won't create the corresponding element.
There's an option available for the XQuery method, but only in version 11.2.
So if you want to output empty elements, you'll have to use DBMS_XMLGEN with setNullHandling method :
DECLARE
ctx   DBMS_XMLGEN.ctxHandle;
v_out CLOB;
rc    SYS_REFCURSOR;
BEGIN
OPEN rc FOR
SELECT *
FROM scott.emp
ctx := DBMS_XMLGEN.newContext(rc);
DBMS_XMLGEN.setNullHandling(ctx, DBMS_XMLGEN.EMPTY_TAG);
v_out := DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML(ctx);
DBMS_XMLGEN.closeContext(ctx);
CLOSE rc;
DBMS_XSLPROCESSOR.clob2file(v_out, 'TEST_DIR', 'test_out.xml');
END;
I thought of making use of the utl_file option in Oracle apps.You could, but you might find DBMS_XSLPROCESSOR.clob2file procedure more convenient for that (see above).
All you have to do is serializing the XML in a CLOB variable, and call the procedure.
WHERE NAME = 'utl_file_dir';The "utl_file_dir" init. parameter is deprecated since 10g, use directory objects instead.

Why we need to conver Context Node data into XML file----Export to Excel

Hi All,
Let me clarify my dought........today i have gone through the concept of "Exporting Context Data Using the Webdynpro Binary cache" in SAP Online Help.
From the SAP Online Help pdf document, i have found that, the context node data has been converted first in to XML file,after that file had been stored in the web dynpor binary cache...bla....bla.........
Here my qtn is why they had converted context node data into XML file. With out doing that can not we export context node data to excel file..?
Regards
Seshu
Edited by: Sesshanna D on Dec 19, 2007 7:25 AM

Hi Sesshanna,
it is not neccessary to do that but xml has the advantage, that it can be easily transformed into every output format that might occur in later project stages.
If it's simply about blowing out some Excel, I suggest using an OSS library such as jexcelAPI or Jakarta POI and building the Excel how you need it.

Christian

Loading MySQL data into ListComponent -help!

Hi Everyone,
Complete newbie to this forum, but I've heard that you guys are the best for help and advice so here I am!
So, I have a MySQL database and a Flash Document with a List Component. I need to import (parts) of records to populate my List component.
For a start, I'm not sure which language I should utilize - I was thinking PHP?
Anyway, I've trawled the net for help and I've found none, hence the post. Below is the code I have:
AS3:
var options:XML = new XML();
options.ignoreWhitespace = true;
var loader2:URLLoader = new URLLoader(new URLRequest("http://localhost/list_1.xml"));
loader2.addEventListener("complete",function(event) {
options = new XML(loader.data);
var product = options.brand;
for(var i in product ){;
home_holder.addItem({label:product [i].name});
PHP:
<?PHP
$link = mysql_connect("localhost:3306", "root", "");
mysql_select_db("test");
$query = 'SELECT * FROM stock LIMIT 1';
$results = mysql_query($query);
while($line = mysql_fetch_array($results)) {
echo $line["Brand"];
echo $line["Style"];
echo $line["Store Name"];
echo $line["Image"];
mysql_close($link);
?>
(Please note: the php file returns the correct results if I run it in my browser)
I also had a go at an XML version:
<?php
header("Content-type: text/xml");
$host = "localhost";
$user = "root";
$pass = "";
$database = "test";
$linkID = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die("Could not connect to host.");
mysql_select_db($database, $linkID) or die("Could not find database.");
$query = "SELECT * FROM stock ORDER BY stock_ID DESC";
$resultID = mysql_query($query, $linkID) or die("Data not found.");
$xml_output = "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n";
$xml_output .= "<entries>\n";
for($x = 0 ; $x < mysql_num_rows($resultID) ; $x++){
    $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($resultID);
    $xml_output .= "\t<entry>\n";
    $xml_output .= "\t\t<text>" . $row['Style'] . "</text>\n";
    $xml_output .= "\t\t<text>" . $row['Info'] . "</text>\n";
    $xml_output .= "\t</entry>\n";
$xml_output .= "</entries>";
echo $xml_output;
?>
Please drop me some advice! Even if you suggest a completely different way to achieve loading the MySQL records into the List!
Many Thanks
Vicky

It's not really clear where you're having a problem from what you say in your posting and you appear to be looking for general guidance. But even then you seem to have a grasp of what you need to do. If you have a handle on using PHP to interact with the database, and you intend to use XML as the data feed to Flash, then you want the PHP to echo the data in xml format. Using that approach is common.
If you have a problem understanding how to deal with parsing the xml, then you should search Google for a tutorial using search terms like "AS3 XML tutorial".
When you get to filling the list component, the help documents should help you determine what property (dataProvider) or method (addItem) you can to use to do that and what structure for the data is needed in either case.
If/when you have a specific problem with getting the actionscript working, then post it with the relevant code.

Faisal,
When you read the multiple recordset strucutre file then each record in txt file should have an header from which you can identiy which segment it should go.. and you identiy it by using the keyfiledValue in file adapter
<root>
<header1> 0..1
<f1>
<f2>
<f3>
<header2> 0..1
<f4>
<f5>
<f6>
<item> 1..unbounded
<f7>
<f8>
<f9>
<f10>
<f11>
<f12>
</item>
for this input file
abc def ghi jkl mno pqr
123 123 123 123 123 123
456 456 456 456 456 456
abc def ghi can be read using the file adater to header 1 usinfg key field value, but using the same file adapter you cannt put GHI into header2.
else you should read whole row abc def ghi jkl mno pqr in single filed and write an UDF to split data to header1 and Header 2
similarly you have to take care for item records also
if your inout file is something like this
abc def ghi
jkl mno pqr
123 123 123 123 123 123
456 456 456 456 456 456
abc identifies to Header 1
JKL for Header 2 so on...
read the whole line in single field and write UDF to Split to header 1 and header 2 similary for item.

How to convert Binary Data into XML ???

I am calling the getTaskInfo method of TaskManagerService class using Web Service API.
The result includes the formdata in two formats:
1. Binary content of the form
2. Remote URL of the form data
I have to find a value of a particular field using one of the above information.
I am unable to convert the binary data to XML directly. I have also tried fetch the document based on remoteURL parameter which is also not working.
Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
Thanks
Nith

Hi Steffen,
I found the same solution and fixed the issue long time back. Just forgot to close this forum topic.
Thanks for your knowledge sharing.

How can I read the trace data into LabVIEW for E5071B

HI
I am setting up the measurement using vector network analyzer (VNA) E5071B controlled by NI 488.2. How can I read the trace data into LabVIEW and display on the graph? If anyone having an idea or know well about this process please give me the suggestion, I will much appreciate it.
Many Thanks

You want to start with the driver
In case you do not know it, you can do the driver search in LabVIEW from Tools>Instrumentation>Find Instrument Drivers. You might also want to bookmark the Instrument Driver Network for information on what a driver is and how to use it.
