OSMF: How to create resource from XML string

Hello,
I have a URL that sometimes returns a valid playmanifest.f4m and sometimes returns a string represantation of my media URL.
On my loadComplete handler I would like to create the appropriate resource according to the returned data.
If the data is a URL, I just create a StreamingURLResource and create the media element.
Is there a way for me to create some resource that contains the XML? I noticed OSMF has StreamingXMLResource but its excluded, and it doesn't look like it can answer my use case.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Michal

Hi Michal,
The baseURL is needed since you might want to use relative urls like in a normal f4m. The parsing had to be kept simple, so we preferred to make the baseURL mandatory and to reuse the f4m parsing code.
You should be able to provide (in the xml string) paths for the streams, bootstraps, etc relative to that base url.
You will not be able to use multi-layer manifest through this technique, though.

How to create DTD from XML using DOM

Hi,
Is there a way to create a corrosponding DTD of a xml-file using DOM. I have a XML-file that's pretty huge I want to create a DTD for that XML-file using DOM. Can anyone plz. lead me how to do this. I tried to use XMLSpy to convert the XML into DTD but the resulting DTD is not correct. Is there a way to create the DTD using DOM.
Any help is really appreciated. Thanks

When you say you are trying to convert XML to DTD, do you mean you are trying to convert a XSD (schema) to a DTD, or that you are trying to create a schema that corresponds to a given XML document.
Realize that DTDs are not very powerful. XSD documents allow for much more detail. I don't have a proof, but I'm absolutely confident that any DTD can be expressed as a schema but not all schemas can be represented as a DTD. In other words, DTDs are not worth the trouble, in my opinion.

hi shanu,
the pbm is solved, now i m able to access XXX no. in action class & i m able to validate it. The only thing which i want to know is it ok to declare static ArrayList as i have done in this code. i mean will it affect the performance or functionality of the system.
pls have a look at the following code snippet.
public class XMLValidator {
static ArrayList strXXX = new ArrayList();
public void validate(){
factory.setValidating(true);
parser = factory.newSAXParser();
//all factory code is here only
parser.parse(xmlURI, new XMLErrorHandler());
public void setXXX(String pstrXXX){
strUpn.add(pstrXXX);
public ArrayList getXXX(){
return strXXX;
class XMLErrorHandler extends DefaultHandler {
String tagName = "";
String tagValue = "";
String applicationRefNo = "";
String XXXValue ="";
String XXXNo = "";
XMLValidator objXmlValidator = new XMLValidator();
public void startElement(String uri, String name, String qName, Attributes atts) {
tagName = qName;
public void characters(char ch[], int start, int length) {
if ("Reference".equals(tagName)) {
tagValue = new String(ch, start, length).trim();
if (tagValue.length() > 0) {
RefNo = new String(ch, start, length);
if ("XXX".equals(tagName)) {
XXXValue = new String(ch, start, length).trim();
if (XXXValue.length() > 0) {
XXXNo = new String(ch, start, length);
public void endElement(String uri, String localName, String qName) throws SAXException {
if(qName.equalsIgnoreCase("XXX")) {
objXmlValidator.setXXX(XXXNo);

How to remove Unicode from XML file

I get following error when unmarshal xml:
[java] org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x15) was found in the element content of the document.
Anyone know how to remove Unicode from xml file? Can I remove the unicode by rebuild the file?
Thanks

These sort of error usually occur when you're using a different character encoding to read the file than the one you wrote it with. Perhaps if you were to post the problem section of the file and/or the code that created it in the first place.

Error in create-nodeset-from-delimited-string

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to use the orcl:create-nodeset-from-delimited-string XPath extension function in the XSL mapper.
I am using the Map test feature to test my map, and notice that if I use this function, the XSL does not give any output - i guess the map is failing to execute at runtime. When I open the JDeveloper as jdev.exe [so that I can see the command line window for JDev], I can see that an error appears in the command line window that states "Method orcl:create-nodeset-from-delimited-string" not found.
This XPath function is available for use in the "Advanced Functions" palette in the XSL Mapper.
Please let me know if
a) This function can be used within the Mapper, and if so,
b) whats the right way to use it.
My usage looks like
orcl:create-nodeset-from-delimited-string('tns:sampeNode',$delimVar,',')
where delimVar is a comma delimited string.
Please let me know your thoughts on this .
rgds,
Ram

How can I read an XML string that's not from an XML file?

I've got a script I'm trying to setup that communicates over a socket to retrieve different directions from a custom built Java program. The Java program listens to requests from the Adobe scripting engine (in my case it's a Photoshop script) on a socket and immediately responds with the next set of directions. These directions are currently in XML format. The issue I'm having is that I can't parse the XML data since it's entered into a new XML object from a string rather than being read from a file. Even without the socket code, you can see the issue by doing the following:
var xml = new XML("<test><data>hey!</data></test>");
alert(xml.test.data);
alert(xml);
The first alert "should" return "hey!" (without quotes, of course), but it doesn't, while the second alert returns what you would expect it to:
<test>
<data>hey!</data>
</test>
It works fine if read from an XML file, but from a string, like shown above, it just presents an empty alert box when attempting to access "xml.test.data". Any ideas on how to fix this issue? Can it be fixed? Has it been fixed in newer versions (I'm currently using CS4)?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Duh... found my error... I was attempting to access the data by referencing the created "root" element. Since <test> is the very first element tag, it's setup as the root element, which you don't need to reference. Changing the alert to alert(xml.data); fixed it.
Now I just feel dumb, lol...

http://www.prevu.tv/cfc/xyzTest.cfc?method=listPlant
Am I correct in outputting it in this way? What if I output as a string instead......would others be able to consume it?
When I try to invoke it as a web service I am getting an error I do not understand. I am trying to call it using (user/pass not required in CFC):

Can anyone please tell me where I am going wrong, or how the output for a XML feed called from a CFC should look in a browser etc?
Thanks

Hey Dan....thanks for the prompt reply.
I added the wsdl and this is what I get when I call the service from this cfm page: http://www.prevu.tv/xyzTest.cfm
Have never seen output like this. Is this correct?
The web service I'm writing is also for some .net developers so it may be that I need to output as string also - this discussion has not taken place yet.
