Problems using XML DB with Schema
Hi,
I am attempting to use Java code running on WebLogic Server 10.3 to insert some XML documents into an Oracle Database (11gr1) and have them ‘shredded’ into columns, as the documentation claims is possible.
I registered the XML Schema with Oracle using SQL*Plus, and have verified that tables and types are being built as expected. (Partial details below if needed.)
I am able to insert records into the table, using XMLType, but they do not appear to be shredded in such a way that we can perform relational queries on them. References I found on the Oracle web site and others implied that if the XMLType is created with a schema associated, the insert will perform the shredding.
When I attempt to create the XMLType with a schema in either of the two ways below, I get SQLExceptions.
xml = XMLType.createXML(conn,doc.toString(), schema, true, true);
Or
xml = xml.createSchemaBasedXML(schema); // after a successful XMLType.createXML(conn, doc.toString());
The most recent error is java.sql.SQLException: Fail to convert to internal representation (full stack trace along with the doc.toString() is below).
How can I get more insight into what is causing this problem? Is there a more appropriate way to persist XML documents into Oracle relational tables? Is there some sample code/tutorial I can use that shows how to do this?
Thank you,
-=Alan

Thanks - I have been fighting with another problem for the past few days, but am getting back to this now...
I think the second link you sent helped me realize that the particular error came while using the 'thin' driver; I had other problems when I used the OCI driver... I'll try it again and see, now that I'm using a container managed datasource...
I registered the schema in SQL*Plus using the command:
BEGIN
DBMS_XMLSCHEMA.registerURI(
'http://foo.org/mySchema',
'/home/foo/mySchema.xsd',
LOCAL=>TRUE, GENTYPES=>TRUE, GENBEAN=>FALSE, GENTABLES=>TRUE);
END;
Everything created, was created from that command. I did use xdb annotations, but perhaps I didn't use enough of them...
In this simple example (I have more complicated ones) there are only the two attributes; I've been hoping that I would be able to use normal sql statements, e.g.
SELECT * FROM objecthandle WHERE objectuid='objecthandle_301';
and get back either the XML or a resultset -- I'm less picky about that right now.
I've been unable to find good reference material for this query; any advice will be appreciated.

Problem using XMLNode class with schema registered XML
Hello,
I'm working on an XML document management system that currently uses CLOB storage of XML data. I'm trying to switch over to a schema registered/object-relational approach to increase performance.
However, the code (which I didn't write) uses the XMLNode class and its methods such as selectSingleNode which work when used against unregisterd xml, but breaks when used against registered xml. I don't know if this is a namespace issue or what.
Here's a sample.
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
dbf.setNamespaceAware(true); // don't know if this is neccessary
newICD = (XMLDocument) dbf.newDocumentBuilder().parse(icdFile);
docNode = (XMLNode) newICD.getDocumentElement();
//this works with CLOB storage, but returns null with registered schema/O-R storage
tempNode = docNode.selectSingleNode("/sw_icd/TITLEPAGE/DocNum");
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Problem using SQL Loader with ODI
Hi,
I am having problems using SQL Loader with ODI. I am trying to fill an oracle table with data from a txt file. At first I had used "File to SQL" LKM, but due to the size of the source txt file (700MB), I decided to use "File to Oracle (SQLLDR)" LKM.
The error that appears in myFile.txt.log is: "SQL*Loader-101: Invalid argument for username/password"
I think that the problem could be in the definition of the data server (Physical architecutre in topology), because I have left blank Host, user and password.
Is this the problem? What host and user should I use? With "File to SQL" works fine living this blank, but takes to much time.
Thanks in advanceI tried to use your code, but I couldn´t make it work (I don´t know Jython). I think the problem could be with the use of quotes
Here is what I wrote:
import os
retVal = os.system(r'sqlldr control=E:\Public\TXTODI\PROFITA2/Profita2Final.txt.ctl log=E:\Public\TXTODI\PROFITA2/Profita2Final.txt.log userid=MYUSER/myPassword @ mySID')
if retVal == 1 or retVal > 2:
raise 'SQLLDR failed. Please check the for details '
And the error message is:
org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython:

Problem using CORBA clients with RMI/EJB servers..!!!???
Hi,
I have a question on using EJB / or RMI servers with CORBA clients using
RMI-IIOP transport, which in theory should work, but in practice has few
glitches.
Basically, I have implemented a very simple server, StockTreader, which
looks up for a symbol and returns a 'Stock' object. In the first example, I
simplified the 'Stock' object to be a mere java.lang.String, so that lookup
would simply return the 'synbol'.
Then I have implemented the above, as an RMI-IIOP server (case 1) and a
CORBA server (case 2) with respective clients, and the pair of
client-servers work fine as long as they are CORBA-to-CORBA and RMI-to-RMI.
But the problem arises when I tried using the RMI server (via IIOP) with the
CORBA client, when the client tries to narrow the object ref obtained from
the naming service into the CORBA idl defined type (StockTrader) it ends up
with a class cast exception.
This is what I did to achieve the above results:
[1] Define an RMI interface StockTrader.java (extending java.rmi.Remote)
with the method,
public String lookup( String symbol) throws RMIException;
[2] Implement the StorckTrader interface (on a PortableRemoteObject derived
class, to make it IIOP compliant), and then the server to register the stock
trader with COS Naming service as follows:
String homeName =....
StockTraderImpl trader =new StockTraderImpl();
System.out.println("binding obj <" homeName ">...");
java.util.Hashtable ht =new java.util.Hashtable();
ht.put("java.naming.factory.initial", args[2]);
ht.put("java.naming.provider.url", args[3]);
Context ctx =new InitialContext(ht);
ctx.rebind(homeName, trader);
[3] Generate the RMI-IIOP skeletons for the Implementation class,
rmic -iiop stock.StockTraderImpl
[4] generate the IDL for the RMI interface,
rmic -idl stock.StockTraderImpl
[5] Generate IDL stubs for the CORBA client,
idlj -v -fclient -emitAll StockTraderImpl.idl
[6] Write the client to use the IDL-defined stock trader,
String serverName =args[0];
String symList =args[1];
StockClient client =new StockClient();
System.out.println("init orb...");
ORB orb =ORB.init(args, null);
System.out.println("resolve init name service...");
org.omg.CORBA.Object objRef
=orb.resolve_initial_references("NameService");
NamingContext naming =NamingContextHelper.narrow(objRef);
... define a naming component etc...
org.omg.CORBA.Object obj =naming.resolve(...);
System.out.println("narrow objRef: " obj.getClass() ": " +obj);
StockTrader trader =StockTraderHelper.narrow(obj);
[7] Compile all the classes using Java 1.2.2
[8] start tnameserv (naming service), then the server to register the RMI
server obj
[9] Run the CORBA client, passing it the COSNaming service ref name (with
which the server obj is registered)
The CORBA client successfully finds the server obj ref in the naming
service, the operation StockTraderHelper.narrow() fails in the segment
below, with a class cast exception:
org.omg.CORBA.Object obj =naming.resolve(...);
StockTrader trader =StockTraderHelper.narrow(obj);
The <obj> returned by naming service turns out to be of the type;
class com.sun.rmi.iiop.CDRInputStream$1
This is of the same type when stock trader object is registered in a CORBA
server (as opposed to an RMI server), but works correctly with no casting
excpetions..
Any ideas / hints very welcome.
thanks in advance,
-hariOn the contrary... all that is being said is that we needed to provide clearer examples/documentation in the 5.1.0 release. There will be no difference between the product as found in the service pack and the product found in the 5.1.1. That is, the only substantive will be that 5.1.1 will also
include the examples.

With reference to your and other messages, it appears that one should not
expect that WLS RMI-IIOP will work in a complex real-life system, at least
not now. In other words, support for real-life CORBA clients is not an
option in the current release of WLS.

We currently publish an IDL example, even though the IDL programmingmodel in Java is completely non-functional, in anticipation of the support
needs for uses who need to use IDL to talk to the Weblogic server,
generically. This example illustrates the simplest connectivity; it does not
address how
to integrate CORBA and EJB, a broad topic, fraught with peril, imo. I'llnote in passing that, to my knowledge, none of the other vendors attempt
this topic either, a point which is telling if all the less happy to hear.
For the record then, what is missing from our distribution wrt RMI-IIOPare a RMI-IIOP example, an EJB-IIOP example, an EJB-C++. In this you are
correct; better examples are forth coming.
Still, I would not call our RMI-IIOP implementation fragile. I would saythat customers have an understandably hard time accepting that the IDL
programming model is busted; busted in the sense that there are no C++
libraries to support the EJB model, and busted in the sense that there is
simply no
support in Java for an IDL interface to an EJB. Weblogic has nothing to doit being busted, although we are trying to help our customers deal with it
in productive ways.
For the moment, what there is is a RMI (over IIOP) programming model, aninherently Java to Java programming model, and true to that, we accept and
dispatch IIOP request into RMI server objects. The way I look at it is this:
it's just a protocol, like HTTP, or JRMP; it's not IDL and it has
practically nothing to do with CORBA.

Eduardo,
Can you give us more details about the comment below:
I fear that as soon as the call to narrow succeeds, the remainingapplication will fail to work correctly because it is too difficult ot
use an idl client in java to work.It seems to me that Weblogic's RMI-IIOP is a very fragile
implementation. We
don't need a "HelloWorld" example, we need a concrete serious example(fully
tested and seriously documented) that works so that we can get a betteridea
on how to integrate CORBA and EJB.

Please post request to the news group...
As I said, you must separate the idl related classes (class files and
java
files) from the rmi classes... in the rmic step, you must set a newtarget
(as you did), emit the java files into that directory (it's not clearyou
did this), then remove all the rmi class files from the class path... ifyou
need to compile more classes at that point, copy the java files to theidl
directly is you must, but you can not share the types in any way.
I fear that as soon as the call to narrow succeeds, the remainingapplication will fail to work correctly because it is too difficult otuse
an idl client in java to work.

Hi Eduardo,
Thanks for the help. That is the way I compiled my CORBA client, by
separating the IDL-generated stubs from the RMI ones, but still I
get a
CORBA.BAD_PARAM upon narrowing the client proxy to the interfacetype.
Here's what I did;
+ Define the RMI interfaces, in this case a StockTrader interface.
+ Implement RMI interface by extendingjavax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject

Please see the post on june 26, re Errors compiling... somewherein
there,
I suspect, you are referring to the rmi class file when you are
obliged
to
completely segregate these from the idl class files.

Hi,
I have a question on using EJB / or RMI servers with CORBA
clients
using
RMI-IIOP transport, which in theory should work, but in practice
has
few
glitches.
Basically, I have implemented a very simple server,
StockTreader,
which
looks up for a symbol and returns a 'Stock' object. In the firstexample, I
simplified the 'Stock' object to be a mere java.lang.String, so
that
lookup
would simply return the 'synbol'.
Then I have implemented the above, as an RMI-IIOP server (case
1)
and a
CORBA server (case 2) with respective clients, and the pair of
client-servers work fine as long as they are CORBA-to-CORBA andRMI-to-RMI.
But the problem arises when I tried using the RMI server (via
IIOP)
with
the
CORBA client, when the client tries to narrow the object ref
obtained
from
the naming service into the CORBA idl defined type (StockTrader)
it
ends
up
with a class cast exception.
This is what I did to achieve the above results:
[1] Define an RMI interface StockTrader.java (extending
java.rmi.Remote)
with the method,
public String lookup( String symbol) throws RMIException;
[2] Implement the StorckTrader interface (on a
PortableRemoteObject
derived
class, to make it IIOP compliant), and then the server to
register
the
stock
trader with COS Naming service as follows:
String homeName =....
StockTraderImpl trader =new StockTraderImpl();
System.out.println("binding obj <" homeName ">...");
java.util.Hashtable ht =new java.util.Hashtable();
ht.put("java.naming.factory.initial", args[2]);
ht.put("java.naming.provider.url", args[3]);
Context ctx =new InitialContext(ht);
ctx.rebind(homeName, trader);
[3] Generate the RMI-IIOP skeletons for the Implementation
class,
rmic -iiop stock.StockTraderImpl
[4] generate the IDL for the RMI interface,
rmic -idl stock.StockTraderImpl
[5] Generate IDL stubs for the CORBA client,
idlj -v -fclient -emitAll StockTraderImpl.idl
[6] Write the client to use the IDL-defined stock trader,
String serverName =args[0];
String symList =args[1];
StockClient client =new StockClient();
System.out.println("init orb...");
ORB orb =ORB.init(args, null);
System.out.println("resolve init name service...");
org.omg.CORBA.Object objRef
=orb.resolve_initial_references("NameService");
NamingContext naming=NamingContextHelper.narrow(objRef);
... define a naming component etc...
org.omg.CORBA.Object obj =naming.resolve(...);
System.out.println("narrow objRef: " obj.getClass() ":"
+obj);
StockTrader trader =StockTraderHelper.narrow(obj);
[7] Compile all the classes using Java 1.2.2
[8] start tnameserv (naming service), then the server to
register
the
RMI
server obj
[9] Run the CORBA client, passing it the COSNaming service ref
name
(with
which the server obj is registered)
The CORBA client successfully finds the server obj ref in the
naming
service, the operation StockTraderHelper.narrow() fails in thesegment
below, with a class cast exception:
org.omg.CORBA.Object obj =naming.resolve(...);
StockTrader trader =StockTraderHelper.narrow(obj);
The <obj> returned by naming service turns out to be of the
type;
class com.sun.rmi.iiop.CDRInputStream$1
This is of the same type when stock trader object is registeredin a
CORBA
server (as opposed to an RMI server), but works correctly with
no
casting
excpetions..
Any ideas / hints very welcome.
thanks in advance,

Problem validating XML file with external schema file
Hi All
I am having trouble at the moment trying to validate an xml file using an external xsd file that sits on my server. I have followed the basic option but at the moment to no avail. I am using a DOMParser and am setting all the features and properties correctly ... well I think I am anyway.....below is a fragment of the code
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser ();
// Setting the validation on for the parser.
parser.setFeature ( "http://xml.org/sax/features/validation", true );
parser.setFeature ( "http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema", true);
parser.setProperty ( "http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/externalnoNamespaceSchemaLocation", "c://testing.xsd" );
parser.setErrorHandler ( this );

Problem using VB Client with a JAVA Webservice
Hi people!
I'm using JDeveloper (9.0.3) to create a JAVA Webservice on OC4J container. I followed tutorial of Oracle and I got to execute my webservice, including I can invoke my methods by HTTP using HTML forms.
I need to invoke my methods using a VB Client with MIcrosoft SOAP ToolKit. My VB code is:
Function autenticar(login As String, senha As String)
Dim ObjWS As New MSSOAPLib30.SoapClient30
Dim retorno As Variant
Call ObjWS.MSSoapInit("http://10.71.200.40:8888/iSimp-Web-Root/br.gov.anp.isimp.controleVersao.ControleVersaoEJB?WSDL")
retorno = ObjWS.autentica(login, senha)
autenticar = retorno
End Function
My webservice publish a method called autentica that receives two parameters (a login and a password) and authenticates to obtain access to my system.
When I try to execute this function, I got this message error:
No deserializer found to deserialize a ":login" using encoding style "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/". [java.lang.illegalArgumentException]
Anyone knows what is this error?If you could post what solved your problem that would be useful for others that run into the same issue. Thanks if possible!

Xml validation with schema, unbounded and any order of elements
Hi
I want to validate a xml file the user creates. I am currently using schema to do this. However there needs to be the possibility of a totally random mix of three different types of elements in a parent element. I couldn't find out how to do this, maybe it is not possible with schema? I thought I could look at the error message generated and ignore it if it was caused by one of the three elements mentioned above, but while the error message generated says which element is expected, it does not say which element caused the error.
Thanks in advance for any help.Ruskin wrote:

Still problems serializing xml-docs with xml-parser for java v2.0.2.7
Hi !
I'm using the Oracle XML Parser 2.0.2.7.0 and get some problems when serializing the XMLDocument.
In one class (DOMOut) I parse a xml-file with the oracle.xml.parser.v2.DOMParser, then obtain the XMLDocument and write it to System.out
In another class (DOMIn) I fetch the XMLDocument from System.in, search for a given Element and print it's TextValue (if existing) to System.out
That is where the error occurs.
I get the XMLDocument from System.in but the returning NodeList from doc.getElementsByTagName() is empty. [nl.getLength()==0] even if it shouldn't be.
Look at this code and output:
[DOMOut]
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();
parser.parse(url);
XMLDocument doc = (XMLDocument)parser.getDocument();
ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(System.out);
out.writeObject(doc); out.flush();
[DOMIn]
ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(System.in);
XMLDocument doc = (XMLDocument)in.readObject();
doc.print(System.out);
NodeList nl = doc.getElementsByTagName("Name");
System.out.println("Length of NodeList: "+nl.getLength());
if (nl.getLength()==0)
System.out.println(argv[0] + ": not in this document!");
else {
XMLNode node = (XMLNode) nl.item(nl.getLength()-1);
System.out.println(node.getNodeName() + ": " + (node.getFirstChild()).getNodeValue());
This is the relevant code.
I javac both classes and then do this:
java DOMOut xmltestfile.xml > xx
java DOMIn Name < xx
And get this as output:
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE course [
<!ELEMENT course (Name,Dept,Instructor,Student)>
<!ELEMENT Name ((#PCDATA)*)*>
<!ELEMENT Dept ((#PCDATA)*)*>
<!ELEMENT Instructor (Name)>
<!ELEMENT Student (Name)*>
]>
<course>
<Name>Calculus</Name>
<Dept>Math</Dept>
<Instructor>
<Name>Jim Green</Name>
</Instructor>
<Student>
<Name>Jack</Name>
<Name>Mary</Name>
<Name>Paul</Name>
</Student>
</course>
Length of NodeList: 0
Name: not in this document!
Has anyone an idea?
If I do all this stuff without serializing it works.
If I do not search for argv[0], but the string "Name" it fails.
If I do search for "*" it works fine!
I'm very confused could anybody please help me a bit??

Problem Using Sax parser with Eclipse 3.0 and command line
Hi,
I am parsing a xml file with sax. When I am running my programm in the command line everthing is ok and I get the right results from parsing.
But if I am running the programm in Eclipse 3.0 (the same java code) I get an other result (the wrong results).
Does anybody know what this can be the reason for. Is Eclipse using an other xml parser and if where I can change the parser?
It would be very kind if somebody can give me a reason for this strange behaviour.
Thanks in advanceI have solved my problem.
In the command line I used jre 1.4 and in Eclipse I used jre 1.5.
I think jre 1.5 uses an other xml parser so I got an other result.
If i use in Eclipse jre1.4 I get the same result as in the command line. -
How to get & use xml data with jstl libraries? (URGENT PLZ)
I am using jstl to get and use xml data
I needs to perform operations on the parsed xml document with other libraries of jstl. How can i do that.
I used Dom variable to parse my document as:
<x:parse varDom="test"> <c:import url="project.xml"/> </x:parse>
where my project.xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<project> <projectName>myProject</projectName> </project>
I can dislay this value in html by
<x:out select="$test/project/projectName"/>
But I need a string value sotred in variable such as <c:set var="pname" value="???">
HOW CAN I SET THIS VALUE IN CORE VARIABLE THAT IS, USING <c:set...> SO THAT IT CAN BE USED ANYWHERE IN JSP PAGE TO CONCATE RETURNED STRING IN OTHER STRING VARIABLES DEFINED BY CORE LIB?

3-<x:out select="$ds"/> <br>

In line 3 variable ds returns: myProject
In line 5 variable tt returns: [[projectName: null]]
perhaps on line 4 ds is storing some array to tt and i am not calling correct array element. I tried many options but still could not find solution. Plz Plz do something urgent for me. Thanks

Problems using XML URL data service on Jdev
Not sure if this is the right forum for this but couldn't find specific forum on XML.
I"m using Jdev Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.4.0 (Win 2008 Server). I'm followng the tutorial (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/ccset10-all-091120.html) which treaches how to create a URL service to read RSS feeds.
My real question is about any guidance in creating proper XML schemas. I've read the documentation from wr.org but I"m still not sure about any key rules to follow for creating XML schemas and if XML schemas are a muust for using XML DB to read content from the internet.

Any idea what I am doing wrong? Thanks, JHi Jay,
Most of XML parsers mainly support UTF-8 encoding by default. So if the source is Windows 1252 encoded, the parser might fail.
There are two potential solutions (including but not limited to):
1) Use encoding tools/functions to translate the source with UTF-8 encoded.
2) Change ADF configurations to see if ADF can deal with Windows 1252 encoded source. Also people in ADF forum may have suggestions from their point of view.
Best regards,

EJB3 using xml descriptors with DAO
Does anyone know where I can find example resources of EJB3 using xml and not annotations with DAOs? The examples I find are using annotations.
Thanks in advance.ok,
midp2.0 isn't the problem...i installed IBM's JVM J9 but still i have no clue of how to get access to captured images using java!
a way would be to use a JVM that implements MMAPI but i only found one (esmertecs) and that one is not free:/
Does anyone have an idea how i can access captured images through IBM's JVM J9 for instance??
There exists a MMAPI RI (reference implementation) from sun....does anyone know if i can port that RI to Palm OS?
there is a porting guide in that RI that is very complex but im not sure if i will get a JVM out of it that supports MMAPI?
...pls anyone any ideas on this??

Problem using iPad mirroring with an Apple TV and 4:3 Projector
I'm a teacher and I've been using my iPad 2 in the classroom for about a year and a half. I would use Apple's VGA Adapter to connect to my projector, which worked fine. I just didn't like being tied down, and the dock connector would come loose very easily and lose connection to the projector, which interrupted the flow of the lesson.
So this summer, I got an Apple TV and a projector with an HDMI port so I could start using Airplay Mirroring to get the iPad screen onto the projector. But I'm having trouble with the aspect ratio. Forgive my drawing, but the genius at the Apple store had a hard time understanding my explanation, so I'm hoping this will help show what I mean.
My projector (ViewSonic DLP PJD5133) can be set to either a 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio (4:3, 800x600 is the native resolution). My projector screen in the front of the classroom is 4:3, so when the projector is set to 4:3, the image fills up the screen (which is what I want - it needs to be as big as possible so the entire class can see it clearly; plus it means all the output pixels are being used). When the projector is set to 16:9, the image is letterboxed (not ideal unless I'm showing a widescreen video or image).
The Apple TV's native aspect ratio is widescreen, and the iPad's native aspect ratio is 4:3, so if you use Airplay mirroring on a widescreen TV, the Apple TV will pillarbox the image (add horizontal black bars on each side), so that the image will not be stretched/distorted. (I know that it will show widescreen videos and a few widescreen-ready apps without the pillarbox, but the apps I use in class - Keynote, Noteshelf, etc. - don't fall in that category). The effect on my projector screen is a tiny 4:3 image taking up half the area it would have taken if I had used the VGA connection.
So in the Apple TV, I went to Settings>Audio & Video>TV resolution, and chose 800x600 60Hz (the max 4:3 resolution for my projector). Since the Apple TV is natively widescreen, it seems to accomplish this change be stretching the image vertically; but it basically works because the Apple TV home screen fills up the projector screen. However, when I turn on Airplay Mirroring on my iPad, the image does not fill up the screen. The Apple TV still puts a pillarbox on the image, so I end up with a distorted, square image of my iPad screen. It's the right height - the max 600 pixels for my projector - but it's not as wide as it should/could be.
Is there a setting that I'm missing? I understand that the Apple TV has to stretch its home screen image to accommodate the 4:3 resolution, but I think it should be smart enough to realize that if it's receiving a 4:3 image from the iPad and sending it out to a 4:3 TV, it doesn't need to pillarbox the image.
Before you answer - this is not a problem with the projector settings, and my Apple TV is not defective. You could simulate what's happening on your Apple TV, even if it's hooked up to a widescreen TV. In the Apple TV settings, change the TV Resolution to 800x600 as mentioned above (or any other of the 4:3 options). Now go to the Apple TV home screen, and note the amount of space the image is taking up on your screen (on a widescreen TV, it will be pillarboxed, and it will look like it's been squished horizontally). Then turn on Airplay mirroring on the iPad, and you'll see that the iPad image does not have the same width as the Apple TV home screen and it looks square/squished.
Also, while my projector does have a zoom function, it will not magnify the small iPad mirror image correctly (if I were to leave the Apple TV and projector on a 16:9 setting). It cuts off the top and sides. But even if it didn't crop the image, it's a digital zoom, so that option still won't fix the fact that I'm not getting a full 800x600 image on the projector. The same problem would apply if I were to move the projector farther away from the screen (so that the widescreen image takes up the full height of the projector screen, while spilling off the sides). I'll still have a lower resolution image, which isn't ideal since I'm often showing text on the screen through Keynote. Also, widescreen videos wouldn't fit on the screen, and I can't move the projector easily because it's fixed to the ceiling.
Sorry for the long explanation. Any ideas? I'd really appreciate some insight.We have the same problem, and not only with ipads. Macbook Air is doing something similar. it can only use airplay with 1080 and 720 resolution, so the image is squeezed on a 4:3 projector. We use AppleTV 3 and Mountain Lion OS. We use ATVPRO from Kanex.
Apple must get its act together and fix this, they promise gold and green forests, but nothing works.

Our portal platform: HP-UX, WAS 6.40 JAVA, EP 6.0 SP14
We created an XML iview using XML iview template and configured the XML source URL with RSS feeder addresses such as"https://forums.sdn.sap.com/rss/rssmessages.jsp?forumID=41". And then select RSS to XHTMLB as the XML transformation format and save. When I try to preview the iview, I always got error "Error while using XML iview, please contact your system administrator". Here is the log and among which I found an error "java.net.UnknownHostException: news.163.com". Does this indicate that the Portal server is not able to interpret the address of the URL host?

And then I tried to upload an XML file on the portal server through KM and created another XML iview. I got the same error message "Error while using XML iview....". But I found that the log contained different message:

Using XML DB with Oracle Drive as Webdav client
Hi all -
I'm looking into using XML DB (10g) to store files so we can query their content via SQL/XPATH and then access/edit them via Webdav.
Windows Vista makes this easy, since it can map a drive to a Webdav URL. Mac OSX can do a similar thing.
Windows XP however can't do the drive mapping for WebDav on a port other than port 80, which is our setup.
So I tried out Oracle Drive, which I stumbled across on some site somewhere, and it worked. But it was an old version, so I downloaded the "official" version from Oracle, which is v10.2.0.0.22. This version refuses to connect to XML DB no matter what I do. I've fiddled with authentication, proxies, and so on (there are several posts elsewhere with hints on this) but so far no joy.
Has anyone had any experience making the latest version of Oracle Drive talk to XML DB?
Many ThanksThanks for replying.
Yes, we may decide to move XML DB to port 80, but there are other services running on our server and such a move would be a significant hassle.
As for Windows XP, it is not possible to do this: net use * http://server:8080/public
This works on Vista, but it only works on XP if you use port 80.
Note that XP has TWO built in Webdav clients: Web Folders (= Network Places) which is a feature in Explorer, and the Webdav Mini-Director which works at the file-system level. I don't think Web Folders can work for us since we need to be able to create a real filepath to give to our editor application. Maybe I'm wrong on that, but I can't figure it out.
Oracle Drive seems to be a great solution, but I can't make the most recent version work (the old version worked but was buggy).
