Problems with XML Instance Generator

Hi.
I still have problems with the XML instance Generator. I had the problem other people have commented here before:
parsing a grammar: newspaper.dtd
generating document #1
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/xml/serialize/XMLSerializer
at com.sun.msv.generator.Driver.run(Unknown Source)
at com.sun.msv.generator.Driver.main(Unknown Source)
I read somewhere that xercesImpl.jar was necessary. I have downoladed a version of it of about 3 Mb size, and now the message I receive is the following:

after executing the command: java -jar xmlgen.jar -dtd newspaper.dtd
All .jar files coming with the xmlgen.zip are in the same directory where I type the command. Does anybody know what am I doing wrong?
Thanks to all.

Hi,
I am also getting the same problem.
Thanks

Help us to help you. When you have a problem include as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:

<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)

URGENT ! JDEV 10.1.2 Problem with data control generated from session bean

I got a problem with data control generated from session bean which return a collection of data transfer object.
The dto's seem to be correct. The session bean load correctly the data into and the object's are plenty of data. Using the console to display the dto content is ok.
When generating a data control from this session bean and associate the dto included in the collection only the first object level and one-to-one dto object are correctly setted in the data control. Object that represent collection into the dto (one-to-many foreign key) are setted as collection with an iterator but the structure of the object is not setted. I don't know how to associate this second level of collection with the dto bean class to obtain the attributes definition.
I created a case with hr schema like the hrApp demo application in the tutorial with departments and employees table. I got the same problem.
Is it a bug ?
It exists a workaround to force the data control to understand the collection data structure ?
Help is welcome ! this is urgent !!!

we found the problem by assigning the child dto bean class to the node representing the iterator in the xml file corresponding to the master dto.

Problem with XML on Linux

hi everybody,
I've a big problem with XML on Linux, in details I see my program stopping on Linux at the instruction
XMLReader xr = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader("org.apache.crimson.parser.XMLReaderImpl");
and it's strange because on Windows it runs and there aren't problems about permissions on files, does anyone knows what to do?
thanks in advance!
Stefano

What happens on that line? I'm assuming you get some kind of error or exception.
Make sure the JAR file for Crimson is in your classpath.

I am facing a new problem with xml schema, plz help me

Hi @,
I am facing a problem with xml schema validation. Below is my code.
public void initialize(String cfgFileName) {
try {
try {
DOMParserWrapper parser = (DOMParserWrapper)Class.forName("dom.wrappers.DOMParser").newInstance();
parser.setFeature( "http://apache.org/xml/features/dom/defer-node-expansion",true );
parser.setFeature( "http://xml.org/sax/features/validation",true);
parser.setFeature( "http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces",true );
parser.setFeature( "http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema",true );
parser.setFeature( "http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema-full-checking",true );
Document document = parser.parse(cfgFileName);
System.out.println("Vijay .. code .. damar\n");
}catch (org.xml.sax.SAXParseException spe) {
} catch (org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException ex ){
} catch (org.xml.sax.SAXNotSupportedException ex ){
} catch (org.xml.sax.SAXException se) {
if (se.getException() != null)
se.getException().printStackTrace(System.err);
else
se.printStackTrace(System.err);
}catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Caught unknown exception : \n");
e.printStackTrace(System.err);
System.out.println("Vijay .. code .. success\n");
DocumentBuilderFactory docBuilderFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder docBuilder = docBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
//docBuilder.setErrorHandler(myErrorHandler);
cfg = docBuilder.parse(new File(cfgFileName));
cfg .getDocumentElement ().normalize ();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
In the above code I am parsing the xml file and i am doing schema validation. Schema validation is proper and it is validating correctly. Only problem is that, It is validating and showing error correctly correctly but it is not catching that error.
For clear understanding I am printing one statement before parsing and after parsing.
SYSTEM.OUT.PRINTLN("Vijay .. code .. damar\n") this is before parsing
SYSTEM.OUT.PRINTLN("Vijay .. code .. success\n") this is after parsing
Here what is happening means, It is validating correctly and showing error :
[Error] nw_layout-new.xml:800:97: Datatype error: Value 'y' does not match regular expression facet 'yes|no'..
Vijay .. code .. damar
Vijay .. code .. success
Here it is showing error and still continueing not catching.
Plz give solution for this.
Thanks

Problem with Xml Report

Dear Experts,
I have designed a Oracle report using oracle BI publisher.
xml is generating successfully from reports builder, my problem is that some of Invoice numbers are starting with zero (0). But when i preview the output in excel then zero's are not displaying in the report.
For eg. My invoice number is 001, in output i am getting only 1.
I check the force LTR option, then invoice number is displaying properly 001. But when i am copying this invoice number 001 and searching it on R12.1.3 in Payable window, then its not searchable.
Copying from excel and pasting into oracle R12.1.3 is not working.
Please advice me how to tackle with this problem.
Thanks,
Atul

Hi Ananth,
Thanks for your prompt reply. Checking the Force LTR option and the code suggested by you is exactly the same.
The Invoice number which are starting with zero's are coming properly in the output, But problem is when i am copying this invoice number cell to the oracle instance then its not searchable.
Copy for Excel 001 --> Oracle Production instance F11 -- > Paste 001 -- Here the search is not happening, if you manually type 001 then its retrieving the invoice number 001.
Please help me if you can to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Atul

Problem with XML SQL JDBC adapter

Hello All.
I have quite strange problem with my PI.
Whole scenario is SOAP -> JDBC, asynchronous. Everything works fine on DEV server. After transporting objects (using CTS) to QA env I'm getting this error:
JDBC Message processing failed, due to Error processing request in sax parser:
No 'action' attribute found in XML document
(attribute "action" missing or wrong XML structure)
But document seems to be correct. I've compared it to DEV server documents - they are identical. What could be wrong??

Hi,
i was also facing the same error few days back in a JDBC -RFC-JDBC Synchronous scenario. In that scenario, i was using 2 modules in JDBC sender module tab. It was working fine. later i change polling interval and then i started getting same error. it happened coz of sequence of Module got changed somehow.
So please check in Receiver JDBC adapter and SOAP sender adapter CC if anything is changed. If this scenario is working in DEV as it is then it should work after transport.
Else have a look here
Re: attribute "action" missing or wrong XML structure
JDBC - No 'action' attribute found in XML document - error

Problem with Subform Instances at First Opening

Hi All,
I have a large, complex form that has several subforms that I need to have zero instances the first time the form is opened. Most of those subforms that I set the initial instances = 0 on the Object pallet do exactly that--they behave and open with zero instances! However, I have one subform that always starts with an instance (1 instance instead of zero instances). I really don't want to work-around this, as I have done in the past when this has heppened. I want to solve it.
I have tried
Unwrapping the subform and the re-wrapping in a new subform
Manually editing the <occur/> element in the XML for the subform.
repeatedly trying different things in the Object pallet--the initial count checkbox always reverts to unchecked and the count to blank--I actually see it un-checking itself and removing the "0", right after I return to Design View from the Preview. This even happens after I have manually set the values in the XML. I double-check the Object pallet to see that my edits are reflected there (they are) and then... upon returning from Preview, it reverts and my <occur/> edit vanishes.
I have looked for scripts that might be causing this--without any luck.
I have encountered this sort of thing before and finally gave up and used the "presence" property as a work-around. The subforms don't always get utilized by the user and they should only exist when the user needs them. I will be exporting the XML data out of this form and exporting a lot of empty elements just presents another problem I'd like to avoid.
Any suggestions are most welcome. I hope someone knows of a solution--I have spent way too much time on this.
Cheers,
Stephen

Hi,
Thanks kjaeggin and Bruce,
I have the checkBoxes unchecked and the occur element is <occur min="0" max="-1"/> .
Actually, this is the way the checkBoxes and XML have been all along and the results are what what I have previously described.
One of my attempts to fix this was manually adding the "initial" attribute to the <occur/> element (by directly editing since it won't stick in the Object pallet)
     <occur min="0" max="-1" initial="0"/> that the edit reverts to <occur min="0" max="-1"/>.
Also I have tried
     <occur min="0" max="1" initial="0"/> this is what I really want (max="1") and it reverts to <occur min="0" max="-1"/> as well
And
     <occur min="0" max="1"/> reverts to <occur min="0" max="-1"/>
The documentation for scripting the "initial" property of an object says:
     "This property should be used only for printed and static forms."
This doesn't make sense to me because static forms don't have repeating containers, so why would you need/use it?
Finally, to rule out that there is a script or property within mySubform causing this, I have set the presence property for all the subforms contained within mySubform to Inactive (Exclude from form processing) leaving only a single static object to be rendered if there is an instance of mySubform. (Bruce, I am not sure you have this on LCD 9. It is in ADEP Designer 10 and is supported by the target version). The result is the same--I see the first static object GrandParent.Parent.mySubform.staticObject but when I add a GrandParent I see GrandParent.Parent.nothingElse -- the added GrandParent doesn't have a mySubform. So it only misbehaves when the form is first opened, not when a GrandParent is added.
I have removed global bindings from the few objects in mySubform that have them--no change. I have commented out the 1 script in mySubform that runs at form:ready--no change. I am going to look at scripts outside mySubform that get values from objects within mySubform, to see if somehow that is where the answer is. I would think that scripts would impact new instances of GrandParent, as well. I've looked at all other form:ready scripts and none interacts with or get values from mySubform.
I think I may just have to settle for a work-around. Sure would like to know whats going on here, though.
Thanks,
Stephen

Problems with xml transformation via xslt - strange results

hi everybody...
i've little trouble finalling a little tool programmed by myself for my education.
the application contains a kind of document-server which enables the client to up- and download xml-document in a special format to/from the server.
in case of the xml-dtd of client and server are different (same type of content, different dtd) the server implements a method called transform(StreamSource source, StreamSource xsl_stylesheet, StreamResult result) which contains the following code:
    transform(StreamSource source, StreamSource xml_stylesheet, StreamResult result) {
      try {
        TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
        Templates template = factory.newTemplates(xsl_stylesheet);
        Transformer transformer = template.newTransformer();
        transformer.transform(source, result);
        return true;
      catch(Exception e) {
        return false;
    }the method is called by the methods downloadFile(...) and uploadFile(...) which both generate the different StreamSource- and StreamResult-Objects.
by using the downloadFile(...) method, the requested file is transformed, stored temporary in a tmp-directory, read in and send to the requesting client.
by using the uploadFile(...) method, the sent file is stored temporary in the tmp-directory, read in, transformed and stored as new server-document (if the file still exists it will be overwritten).
My Problem:
the result files generated by transform(SreamSource source, StreamSource xsl_stylesheet, StreamResult result) look strange. That means the result xml-code is not equal to the result xml-code i generated by transforming my xml-documents with saxon.
The xsl files are correct and the xml files are wellformed as well as they are valid.
The result files look like this:
<?xml-stylesheet type="text-xsl" href="../xsl/SERVER.xsl"?>
   XYZ
   ABC
      1
      piece
      One piece of ABC(-> <?xml-stylesheet type="text-xsl" href="../xsl/SERVER.xsl"?> is a "string" of code from the source xml-file...)
The result should look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE a-resource SYSTEM "../dtd/A.dtd">
<a-resource id="XYZ">
   <a-type>ABC</a-type>
   <a-data>
      <a-value>1</a-value>
      <a-unit>piece</a-unit>
      <a-descr>One piece of ABC</a-descr>
   </a-data>
</a-resource>Is there anyone who knows what kind of mistake i did in my transform(...) method??
Do I need to add some attributes to any of the Objects of Template of Transformer??
please... help me
i've been testing now over two nights long but couldn't find any solution how to bring my application to work "correct".
thanks,
Thof!!!

ok...
i got it!
seems like jaxpi is unable to convert files with extensions different to .xml ...
now it's working

Did anyone work with this tool and has some experience with it? Or can give me some examples for using?
Please help!!

I think that the elementFormQualified attribute requires these other attributes also: targetNameSpace="http://myURL" xmlns="http://myURL" This syntax defines the namespace that will be used for the actual xml. Then in the actual xml next to the topmost element, you would have this: xmlns="http://myURL". This is because there can be conflicts among elements with the same name. For example, you might have half a dozen or more types called "name" in some xml. This identifies which definition of name is being used in a particular case. The xmlns syntax identifies a particular default name space for the xml (and xsd) that it appears in. That way, you don't have to use a prefix for each and every element and attribute that is user-defined in the xml (or xsd). For example, if you say, <Mine xmlns="http://myUrl"> then a child tag such as <yours> does not need an element such as <m:yours>. Otherwise, it would. This way, only element and attribute names that come from some other schema need to have a prefix. Confusing at first, but it does work.

Problem with XML loading and xmlns

I'm having a problem with loading an XML file that was created by Filemaker. Filemaker will output an XML file using one of two different grammars. One outputs in a mostly standard form that I can use with one glitch. Flash CS4 AS3 seems to have a problem with the xmlns in one of the nodes.
Specifically:

If I remove the xmlns="http://www.filemaker.com/fmpdsoresult" the file loads properly and I can access the various fields with no problem. However, when I leave the xmlns=... in, it will trace out the XML properly but I can't access the fields using the code listed below. This is driving me crazy!
With the xmlns part in the XML file I get the following error when it tries to load the thumbnail files:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
I need to have it so that the user can enter/edit data and simply output the XML file from Filemaker and then Flash will load up the unaltered XML file and show the info requested by the user. That is to say I could have the user open the XML file in a word processing application and have them delete the xmlns..., but that is rather cumbersome and not very user friendly.
I've tried every xml.ignore function I could find but it doesn't help. Hopefully someone out there can help
Thanks,

Hi,
I was trying to use xml namespaces, so in my application I receive an XML file from the server. The file has a namespace, so when I parse the file I need to specify the namespace:
I got the following piece of xml:
<ls:exchange xmlns:ls=".../tsw" xmlns:tm="http://kxa">
    <ls:projects>
         <tm:annotation id="" date="" action="getprojects" status="responseok"/>
    <ls:project id="" name="proj" description="..." owner="asss" release="2" />
        <ls:projectV id="" version="" creationdate="" modificationdate=""/ >
    </ls:project>
</ls:projects>
</ls:exchange>
and the following code
<mx:VBox label="WELCOME" verticalScrollPolicy="off" horizontalScrollPolicy="off">
      <mx:Tree id="tree" dataProvider="{srv.lastResult.project}" labelField="@name" width="300" height="100%" itemOpen="itemOpenEvt(event);" />
</mx:VBox>
So i want to display the content of the xml (project nodes”) in a tree view, but i don’t know how to includes the namespace"ls:" in the data provider “srv.lastResult.project”. can u help me it’s urgent.
sincerly

Problem with Subform Instances at Form Opening

Hi All,
I have a fairly large complex form that has several subforms that I want to have zero instances the first time it is opened. Most of those subforms that I set the initial instances = 0 on the Object pallet do exactly that--they behave! However, I have one subform in particular that no matter what I do, it always starts with an instance. I really don't want to work-around this, as I have done in the past when this happens. I want to solve it.
I have tried
Unwrapping and the re-wrapping in a subform
Edited the <occur/> element in the XML for the subform.
repeatedly trying different combinations of min count, max and initial count values in the Object pallet--the initial count checkbox always reverts to unchecked and the count to blank--I actually see it un-checking itself and removing the "0", right after I return to Design View from the Preview. This even happens after I have manually set the values in the XML, double-checked the Object pallet to see that my edits are reflected there (they are) and then... upon returning from Preview, it reverts and my <occur/> edit vanishes.
I have searched for some offending script that might be causing this--but there is nothing that fires automatically tied to the instances of the subform. There are initialize, formReady and calculate scripts on objects in the subform, but nothing tied directly related to the instances of the subfom?
I have encountered this sort of thing before and used the "presence" property as a work-around. I will be exporting the XML data out of this form and I don't want a bunch of empty elements to deal with.
Any suggestions (besides "have you considered being a gardener?") are most welcome. I hope someone knows of a solution--I have spent way too much time on this.
Cheers,
Stephen

Problem with Xml exporter

Hi All,
Thanks in advance for ur warm replies.
I am exporting personalizations which i did but iam facing problems with this.
Please help me on this issue.
Steps i follwed.
Step1: exec jdr_utils.listcustomizations('/oracle/apps/ego/item/eu/webui/EGOITEMATTRIBUTEPGL');
It displays me the customizations which i did as follows
/oracle/apps/ego/item/eu/webui/customizations/responsibility/24091/EGOITEMATTRIBUTEPGL
Pl/sql procedure completed successfully.
Step2: Iam now at command prompt on java_top and i run the following command
java oracle.jrad.tools.xml.exporter.XMLExporter
/oracle/apps/ego/item/eu/webui/customizations/responsibility/24091/EGOITEMATTRIBUTEPGL
-username apps -password <mypwd> \
-dbconnection "(description=(address_list=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=<host>)(port=<myport>)))(connect_data=(sid=<mysid>)))" \
-rootdir "/oracle/apps/ego/item/eu/webui/EGOITEMATTRIBUTEPGL'"
* I don't know exactly what is root directory here. which path i need to provide here.*
Error: No such file or directory.
Thanks and Regards
Zaheer

Zaheer,
<output_dir> - (Required) Output directory where the exported xml file structure is to be stored. You may set this to any directory, however, we recommend that you export your packages or XML files to $APPL_TOP/personalizations.
If you run the export tool for the package
/oracle/apps/ak/dem/webui/customizations/site/0/REQORDERSTATUSPAGE and specify -rootdir
$APPL_TOP/personalizations, the xml file is saved as
$APPL_TOP/personalizations/oracle/apps/ak/dem/webui/customizations/site/0/REQORDERSTATUS PAGE.xml.
In your case define rootdir as rootdir "/oracle/apps/ego/item/eu/webui ".
Thanks

Jbuilder compiler problem with xml DOM - please help.

my problem is that I am using jbuilder 4 professional to compile/run my code.
However I want to use the XML DOM but jbuilder does not appear to support the necessary packages for use with XML.
How can I get round this.
Can I compile instead from the command line - I am using JDK1.4 which supports the java xml packages necessary. Or is there a way of adding the necessary files to my project?
thanks, B

Add the required jar files to your project properties->classpath in JBuilder
The only problem is that. I have been using JBuilder without any problems.
