My small code is of XSL is:
<xsl:stylesheet version = '1.0'
xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform' xmlns:XYZ="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/pack/XYZ">
<xsl:template match="PatientRecord">
<patientKey>
<LastName>
<xsl:value-of select="XYZ:getValue()"/>
</LastName>
<DOB>
<xsl:value-of select="DOB"/>
</DOB>
</patientKey>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
My small code of java is :
package pack;
public class XYZ{
public String getValue(){
return "Hello World";
My small piece of XML is:
<PatientRecord>
<RecordType>P</RecordType>
<FirstName>JAVA</FirstName>
<LastName>DEVELOPER</LastName>
<SSN>737747777</SSN>
<DOB>19740310</DOB>
<DoctorID>20874</DoctorID>
<VisitReason>
Programming stress disorders
</VisitReason>
</PatientRecord>
I added the xmlparserv2.jar and xyz.jar file to classpath and XYZ.class file is in xyz.jar file .
Could any body help me if they have encounter or know the answer.
Thanks,
Reddy

Answer 1

Hi Vetsrini, Thank you for your response.
1. I checked the values in the xml and found no nulls. I see all 0 or non-zero numbers.
2. Following MetaLink Doc ID 362496.1, I find:
- PDF Producer: PDF file properties shows PDF Producer "Oracle XML Publisher 5.6.3"
- AD_BUGS SQL: The SQL results show that I have the 5.6.3 patch, but the SQL in the Doc only includes patch numbers up to 5.6.3. I'm not sure how I can find out the patch numbers of more recent patches, to see if i have those.
- File version of the MetaInfo.class: $Header MetaInfo.java 115.28 2006/08/17 01:24:59 bgkim noship $
What is the latest XDO patch? I can't find anything newer than what I have in MetaLink, but I probably am missing something...
