Passing Video (Binary Data) to a webService

Hi
I have 11g R2 and the webservices are working fine for non binary data.
Has anyone used a webservice to receive Video(Binary) data?
The SOAP XML definition does NOT handle BLOBs - what types in the oracle procedure are converted to
Binary?
Regards
Chris

Hi
We are building a demo system to test this out.
So I can make sure the video is sent in chunks - probably a few Meg to start with but we can start smaller.
I would like to use a procedure something like:
create_event(p_event_type in varchar2,
p_video_chunk IN ???);
What Oracle Type to use that the SOAP WebService will understand?
I thought XMLTYPE - but not sure how to put the Binary data into the XML.
Any help is much appreciated.
Regards
Chris

How to pass byte array / binary data to a webservice as parameter in osb

i have a webservice that has a byte array input parameter. i tried to use this WS in a message flow via service-callout. the problem i encountered is the following: since webservice call by using service-callout requires you to use an xml input as part of soap message, i insert both of $body/ctx:binary-content and $body/ctx:binary-content/@ref variables individually into this xml-message to pass binary-data to WS. When i debug the code, i see that it make calls to WS with $body/ctx:binary-content/@ref parameter, but the byte array passed is empty(not NULL)...
note: i tried java-callut instead of service-called and used $body/ctx:binary-content as input parameter it worked. i think, this is because java-callout doesnt need an xml input and enable to take variables as is...
can anybody help me to solve the problem with service-callout please?
here is the input i use to call ws with service-callout method...
<iso2Xml xmlns="http://www.mycompany.com.tr">
<request>{$body/ctx:binary-content/@ref}</request>
</iso2Xml>
and this is my WS's signature:
@WebMethod
public String iso2Xml(byte[] request)

How to write binary data to browser - File Save dialog

Hi,
problem:
i have a working webservice and i get binary data from that webservice.
my dynpro java already works and i have byte[] b which has my binary result.
what i want:
when the user clicks on the button, the action onActionGetResult() is executed and inside this method, the byteArray b exists. what can i do, to say the dynpro application that it should send the binary data direct to the browser, so that the "File Save Dialog" appears and the user can save the file to the harddisk
any ideas?

I've found the solution:
IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow(
res.getUrl(WDFileDownloadBehaviour.ALLOW_SAVE.ordinal()),
res.getResourceName());
window.show();
this worked for me

The problem of using webservice to transfer binary data

I want to use webservice to realize downloading file , and then I think we can to transform the whole file to binary data ,and then use webservice to deliver these datas to client. but there is a promble. When the file size is a bit large , such as exceeding 1.5M , then client will receive error report. How to solve this promble. Another I think when server transforming the whole file to binary data , It should apply for much memory , as large as the file. I think this is not a good solution . Any one can give me some ideas ?

Binary data with JMF

I would like to send plain old binary data using RTP. How can I use the JMF to send binary data without binding it to a codec or media type?

JMF transports data every 10 seconds, why not use a Webservice? JMF transports data every 10 seconds? That's actually news to me, can you present the source of this information?
I thought JMF sent out UDP packets as fast as it could / needed to...
Is this plausible?Not really, no.
I am looking for a way to stream large content from a server to a webclient to present it. What is the best way? I am using JavaFX as a cliënt.Depends on what kind of content you're talking about. If it's video, that's a different answer than if it's audio, which is different from powerpoint presentations. And your subject calls for an "image server", which doesn't even make sense in terms of "streaming". What does it mean to stream an image?
Tell us what exactly you're wanting to do, and I'm sure we can come up with some recommendations on how best to do it... :-)

Hi,
I am new for ALSB and I have problem with it.
How can I transform binary Data to xml. The binary datas are in a directory and after mapping to xml, I want them to have in other directory or in Oracle DB.
With Query tool I created binary_to_XML.xq file but can't use it in ALSB.

Storing binary data to a file......

Hi Friends,
I am trying to make a webapp in which users can upload Videos and I can store that videos on the server. I have this bit of code:

            ActionForm form,
            HttpServletRequest request,

                    byte[] fileData    = myFile.getFileData();
}My question is, should i store the byte array into some text file???Then how can i read it back and get the original format i.e *.avi or *.mpg.
This might be easy,but this is my first time dealing with binary data,so your help would be appreciated.

i am interfacing labview with pic microcontroller through serial port using VISA. it is a stream of digital data which is being tranmitted ,stored in microcontroller and then retransmiited by microcontroller to other device...problem is when that data is converted to string to be given to VISA it makes 16bytes out of 16bits...for example if data was "11110000" (1byte) after converted to string it becomes 8 bytes and my microcontroller thibk that 8 bytes are coming................ please kindly tell me how to transmit binary data over serial port so that bit remains a bit dont become byte............................ data is 99bytes but after passing through VISA it become "99x16"bytes........ please help me

The attached example in 8.0 converts a U16 into two U8, builds an array and with the Byte Array to String, converts to the hex string 8000 (two bytes). Note that the string indicator is configured for Hex Display (right click option).
Now, when you say you want to see '1000001 on the hyperterminal of other PC', you are contradicting yourself. Hyperterminal cannot be set for binary display so if you want to see '10000001' in Hyperterminal, then you need 8 bytes (one for each ASCII character).
I hope I have made myself clear.

How to convert XML data into binary data (opaque data)

Hi,
I am trying to develop a process that delivers files after reading data from a database.
However, it is required not to deliver the data immediately. We want to perform some checks before the files get written.
So the way we want to design this is,
1. Read data from database (or any other input). The data is in XML format (this is a requirement, as in general, we have xml data)
2. This data is written, opaquely, to a JMS queue that can store binary data, along with what is the filename of the file that would be written (filename is passed using JMS Headers)
3. When required, another process reads the JMS queue's binary data, and dumps into a file
The reason I want to use opaque data while inserting in the JMS queue is, that enables me to develop a single process in Step 3 that can write any file, irrespective of the format.
My questions are
1. How to convert the xml data to opaque data. In BPEL I may use a embedded java, but how about ESB. Any other way....?
2. how to pass filename to the jms queue, when payload is opaque. Can I use a header attribute...custom attributes?
3. Which jms message type is better for this kind of requirement - SYS.AQ$_JMS_BYTES_MESSAGE or SYS.AQ$_JMS_STREAM_MESSAGE

Ana,
We are doing the same thing--using one variable with the schema as the source of the .xsl and assigning the resulting html to another variable--the content body of the email, in our case. I just posted how we did it here: Re: Using XSLT to generate the email HTML body
Let me know if this helps.

ABAP XSL mapping - Binary data of attached file

I have a webservice which is converting attachment and putting it into XSLT Node. when I mapped this node to Attachment payload of my partner (using ABAP xsl mapping), I got an error.
I was able to send the same file via SOAP UI...
On further investigation of the http log files, I noticed that Binary data for both streams looked same, but when I did a word count, I noticed that SOAP UI was a single line file while my PI data was more than 400 lines.. so I coded a fn:transfer of this data to convert end of line character to empty value. it did seem to work...
My question, is this approach correct? or is there any way to ensure binary data stream in XML node does not contain those additional characters?

can you provide input xml

Video (or Video + Audio) Data Rate

Wondered if anyone here might know of a software utility that has the ability to scan QuickTime compatible files and either display the video (or video + audio) data rate excursion or, as an alternative, graph the instantaneous variation in the data rate over time.

Apple +I (show info) in QT player will show you the framerate and bitrate while playing.
Thanks for your suggestion, Rick. However, I must point out that the data rate so displayed is simply the total average for the entire clip and not the instantaneous (i.e., constantly changing) variance with time. Preliminary observations tend to indicate the single pass H.264 algorithm begings roughly 10% under the requested data rate and quickly settles very near the target. The multipass algorithm, on the other hand, appears to begin in the vicinity of 300% above the targeed data rate and monotonically decreases throughout the remainder of the movie clip. So much for a quick qualitative analysis based on observations during the actualy encoding process.
What I now wish to do is actually perform a bit of quantitative analysis and, based on those results, correlate actual data rates with the ability of a given H.264 multipass file to sync to an iPod. Basically, I am trying to determine whether or not a user data rate input is used as a comparator during the initial phase of multipass H.264 coding and, if so, how it is implemented. (I.e., how are the delta values handled -- linearly, exponentially, etc.) In addition, I wish to compare QT v7.0.3 with v7.0.4 clips to determine why the latter are less iPod compatible. Too, there remains a question as to whether or not any data rate information is now embedded in the clips themselves since various work arounds tried (i.e., clipping file lengths) have proven unsuccessful.

Stored Procedure w/ binary data parameter problems in Visual Basic

Howdy all.
I am having a problem calling stored procedures with a BLOB parameter. I have tried changing the paramater other data types to see if it would work, but with no success. I am calling the stored procedure from Visual Basic using ADO. I am using the Oracle ODBC Driver, Release 9.2.0.4.0. I have tried changing the setup of the ODBC a good bit because that has fixed several problems for me in the past; however, it did not fix my current problem.
Here is what I am trying to do. I have a function like the folowing:
<BEGIN --------------------------------------->
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION PAGEFORMATSINSERT(
p_ObjectFormatCode_ID      IN RAW DEFAULT NULL,
p_PA_ID      IN RAW DEFAULT NULL,
p_Name      IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
p_FormatData      IN BLOB DEFAULT NULL,
p_PF_ID      IN OUT RAW )
RETURN INTEGER
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO PAGEFORMATS (PF_ID, ObjectFormatCode_ID, PA_ID, Name, FormatData) /* <---- this FormatData column is a BLOB column */
VALUES     (p_PF_ID, p_ObjectFormatCode_ID, p_PA_ID, p_Name, p_FormatData)
END PAGEFORMATSINSERT;
<END ----------------------------------------->
The FormatData parameter has a data type of BLOB. In my Visual Basic, I have my ADODB.Command object. I am setting the CommandText of the Command object to "{? = call PageFormatsInsert(?, ?, ?, ?, ?)}". In order to set the parameter value for the BLOB data type, I am calling the AppendChunk function of the Command object - passing it a Byte array.
I am getting the folling error:
     ERROR: -2147467259 [Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-06550: line 1, column 13:
     PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'PAGEFORMATSINSERT'
     ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
     PL/SQL: Statement ignored
If I change the FormatData parameter to a LONG RAW parameter, I get the following error:
     ERROR: -2147467259 [Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: hex to raw conversion error
     ORA-06512: at line 1
I am at a loss as to how to get binary data into by Oracle database. I need to do it using stored procedures. How can I set up my stored procedure or table to do what I want it to do? Should I change my table definition? Are there some settings in the ODBC connection I can tweak? How can I get the stored procedure to accept my call from VB ADO?
Any help would be appreciated.
wally

Thanks for the idea, but I don't get how I am supposed to get my binary data to the stored procedure using the stream. I have a binary array that I want to pass to a stored procedure. I want to be able to use the same Visual Basic front end with out MSSQL database as with our Oracle database.
I am using the ADODB Connection and Command and RecordSet objects. Currenlty our front end calls the ADODB.Command(ParamNumber).AppendChunk function passing it the binary array. Somehow, the SQL Server driver does the magic in order for the MSSQL stored procedure to work correctly. I need to know how to do one of the following:
1. Get the Oracle driver to do the same magic.
2. Set up the Oracle stored procedure so I don't have to change the VB front end.
3. Change the VB front end so that it works with both MSSQL and Oracle.

Publish binary data from OSB JEJB PS to a mq queue

Hi All,
I have a JEJB proxy service which has 3 arguments, : 2 strings and one is a byte array.
I want the third argument: i.e th byte array to be passed on as it is to a mqueue.
Now in my JEJB proxy service, I am only logging all the 3 parameters and replacing the body node contents with this 3rd parameter.
The message goes into the queue but as an xml like :
