Parsing string to xml

Dear All,
I have an OSB service which returns an xml form of output in string.
I am calling this OSB service in BPEL but it fails due to this string format recieved by BPEL.
How can I avoid it. I am also trying to convert string to xml but failing to do so.
Any pointers to this would be helpful
Thanks and Regards,
Mits

try setting the Outbound Response HTTP transport header
http:Content-Type=text/xml
or application/xml (even better)
(and of course you should make sure you have fn-bea:inlinedXml() function to turn the String into a XmlObject)

Parsing String in XML format

Hello,
What is the proper way to parse XML String instead of a XML file?.

Use new InputSource(new StringReader(s)).
Good luck.

Parsing String to XML Attribute bug

Hello!
I'm trying to convert String to org.w3c.dom.Document with javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder, but when I check my XML Document after creating, I find that all the Attributes are like "" or "
 ". Does anyone have some idea why that problem is and how it can be solved?
Thanks a lot!

There are lots of bug reports about Java 5's built-in XML parser screwing up on attribute values. Try forcing Java to use the current version of Xerces (download it) instead of whatever it has built in, if that seems to apply to you. On the other hand it's possible that the bug is in your code too.

XML string to XML parsing in JCD

I have stored an XML file as a CLOB in the Oracle DB. While fetching this data into JCD using Oracle OTD, I am getting this CLOB field as a string containing the XML. Now I want to parse this XML string to XML, as I need to map the individual fields to an XSD OTD, which will be my output.
Kindly suggest a way to achieve this.

An XSD OTD has an unmarshalFromString() method:
inputFormat.unmarshalFromString( strData );
When putting the XML into the CLOB it could be a good idea to wrap an outputstream into a Writer object in order to make certain that the encoding is correct, depending how the data is represented. When retrieving CLOB data using getCharacterStream() you will get a Reader object where the encoding is already given.

How to parse a string containing xml data

Hi,
Is it possible to parse a string containing xml data into a array list?
my string contains xml data as <blood_group>
     <choice id ='1' value='A +ve'/>
     <choice id ='2' value='B +ve'/>
         <choice id ='3' value='O +ve'/>
</blood_group>how can i get "value" into array list?

There are lot of Java XML parsing API's available, e.g. JAXP, DOM4J, JXPath, etc.
Of course you can also write it yourself. Look which methods the String API offers you, e.g. substring and *indexOf.

How to parse the result xml string in BPEL

Hi,
This is Ishmayel.v new to BPEL and hava experience in xml parsing, java and webservices.
Now I am getting the XML file as a result string in BEPL.
now I want to parse the XML string and insert into the database... If any one has the idea let me know.
my email id is [email protected]
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Ishmayel.

Your question is not clear.
You have a client applicaton which invokes a BPEL process and receives XML response from BPEL. Then you want to parse this response XML in your client application?
Or you are running a BPEL process which invokes a service and receives an XML response. Then you want to parse this XML response in BPEL before your process can proceed?
I have to assume that you are working with a string and then you want to convert the string into XML, and then parse the XML. If this is the case, then take a look at the ora:parseEscapedXML(contentString) function. You can use this in the expression editor in JDev.

Could anybody help me in sorting out this issue.My advance thanks

hi,
ypur structure is bad defined.
if you want to do an insert, the DT should be
<ns0:MT_JDBC_RECEIVER xmlns:ns0="http://file_to_jdbc">
___<StatementName>
______<dbTableName action=INSERT>
_____<table>MATMAS</table>
_______ <access>
___________<MATNR>38</MATNR>
___________<MTART>HALB</MTART>
___________<MATKL>00107</MATKL>
___________<MEINS>pc</MEINS>
___________<ERSDA>2008.04.05</ERSDA>
___________<BRGEW>10</BRGEW>
___________<NTGEW>12</NTGEW>
___________<GEWEI>KG</GEWEI>
______</access>
_____</dbTableName>
__ </StatementName>
</ns0:MT_JDBC_RECEIVER>
the ROW field is used when you wait receive data from DB for example you execute and SQL Query from Sender communication channel "SELECT name FROM TABLE Names"
so, the result of this query would be, for example:
<row>
____<name>joge</name>
</row>
<row>
____<name>pepe</name>
</row>
<row>
____<name>nicola</name>
</row>

String to XML

Hi everyone,
i'm just writing a method, that gets a string and a XPath and want writes the string to the specific XPath in my xml document. The problem ist, that the string itself can contain nodes like (e.g. <image> or something else from my dtd, so i got some problems converting the string to xml. Actually i'm trying this:
     public static void setEditFragment(String content, String xPath) throws Exception {
         DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
         DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
         Document document = builder.parse("data.xml");
         XPath xpath = XPathFactory.newInstance().newXPath();
         Node node = (Node)xpath.evaluate(xPath, document, XPathConstants.NODE);
         System.out.println(content);
         node.setTextContent(content);
         // Use a XSLT transformer for writing the new XML file
            Transformer transformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
            // Set output to IsoLatin1
            transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING, "ISO-8859-1");
         DOMSource        source = new DOMSource( document );
         FileOutputStream os     = new FileOutputStream("tmp.xml");
         StreamResult     result = new StreamResult( os );
         transformer.transform( source, result );
     }but of course this will not work and sets up some cryptic signs in mein xml document....
can anyone give me advice ?
Thanks !

Well, if you already have the data XML encoded, then just write them to a file:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/io/index.html
Make sure you encode the data with UTF8:
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#getBytes(java.lang.String)
Write "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>" before the data!
Note however, I generally don't recommend to write XML data by hand. Rather use a framework like JAXB.

Conversion of xml string to xml file

To convert xml string to xml file in java i used
Document XMLDoc=DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder().parse(new InputSource(new StringReader("<root><main>Title</main></root&g t;")));
But it is showing an error as InputSource cannot be resolved
How to rectify this

I assume you mean there is a compiler error? (It helps if you explain your problem instead of just giving a vague description of it.) It sounds like you have to import InputSource. You do know about the import statements that go at the beginning of a Java class, don't you?

Parsing a single XML node by JAXB

Hi,
we are developing an application to communicate with an XML webservice. Basically there are a lot of diffferent xsd files, one group are object types while another are in and out formats for action requests.
My question here is if it would be possible to parse an incoming XML string, look through it and let JAXB unmarshal only a couple of nodes from the XML. I would do this to parse my XML to a business object (containing other BO's) and because I would have to check on status information that came with the XML before trying to parse anything by JAXB.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Steven

Above suggestion does not work for me.
Am currently using this solution
feed = event.result as XML;
switch(feed.channel.item.length()) {
case 0 :
trace('No results found');
break;
case 1 :
items = new ArrayCollection(ArrayUtil.toArray(feed.channel.item));
break;
default :
items = convertXmlToArrayCollection(feed);
Help me with a util function or something.

Converting XML(as String) to XML(XMLObject) in WLI8.1

Hi,
I am new to WLI 8.1. In my business process I receive an XML from client as Java
String. Now I want to convert it into com.bea.xml.XMLObject to perform XSL Transformation.
How do I do it in WLI workshop.
Is it possible in WLI8.1 to use XML in the form of Java String as Input/Output
for XSL Transformation.
Thanks in advance
Ashish

I can think of 2 options.
a) Take the generated XMLObject for the XML as input to JPD - this is the default
behaviour when you use WLW when you configure you client request control method
to take the XSD as the input.
b) If you to take java.lang.String as input to the JPD method then by default
the transformation tool does NOT parse it as XML. You will have to write custome
code (using xquery/xpath or supply an xslt) to parse the XML to build the XMLObject.
The client would still send an XML request in both scenarios... and so both the
above options would not impact clients.
Hope this helps...

How do you pass a string into xml

How do we pass a string to be parsed as xml
something like
DocumentBuilder docBuilder = docBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
oc = docBuilder.parse (String s);
Thanks
Arnold

String xmlString = "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n<myelement myattribute=\"myvalue\"/>\n";
InputSource inputSource = new InputSource(new StringReader(xmlString));
Document document = builder.parse(inputSource);

String to XML Document

Can anyone say how to transform a XML String to XML document
(eg: String xmlstring="<root><main>Title</main></root>";
How can I transform this to XML Document??
Guhan

Right, my mistake, this is what happens when you type code in a browser... hard to compile.
Document XMLDoc=DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder().parse(new InputSource(new StringReader("<root><main>Title</main></root&g t;")))PS. Consider following the online JAXP tutorial: http://java.sun.com/xml/tutorial_intro.html
