Processing XML File Data

Hi,
I have to process a XLM file data from the application server. Could anyone give me any idea how to put the XML file from application server into an internal table in a proper way? I know there is a class CL_XML_DOCUMENT, but I have never handled a XML file before.If anyone could give me a sample code (my id is [email protected]), that would be very helpful.

check out this weblog where in the code sample i am showing how a xml file can be converted to itab using XSLT (XSLT code is also given)

XML Processing (XML file data to ABAP internal table).

Hi,
I have a an XML file and i need to send the data to internal table. I suppose i have written the program correctly.
But the transformation program may not be correct.
So can one please tell me the transformation program c o d e or guide me to write the transformation code. Below are details of XML file and my program.

Hi,
use class cl_xml_document and method import_from_file inorder to read the xml file to internal table.
go trough this [LINK|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/UploadXMLfiletointernal+table] for detial code.

PL/SQL procedure to process XML file

I am just starting to work on xml, and we are using PL/SQL stored procedures to process xml file. I did find the sample code in the package (family.sql). This sample print out all element names and attributes. My questions are :
(1) I tried to modify the code to print out the element values (or Node values). Here is the code:
-- get all elements and values
nl := xmlparser.getElementsByTagName(doc, '*');
len := xmlparser.getLength(nl);
-- loop through elements
for i in 0..len-1 loop
n := xmlparser.item(nl, i);
dbms_output.put_line('NodeName: ' | | xmlparser.getNodeName(n) | | ' ');
dbms_output.put_line('NodeValue: ' | | xmlparser.getNodeValue(n) | | ' ');
end loop;
However, it did not print out the values, although it did print out the name. what's wrong with it? how can I get the value?
(2) I have the following xml file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<profile>
<id>1</id>
<name>Company</name>
<des>master profile</desc>
<subprofile>
<subid>1</subid>
<subname>group1</subname>
<subdesc>group profile</subdesc>
</subprofile>
</profile>
now, I'd like to print out all the children of the <subprofile> node, that is <subid>, <subname> and <subdesc>. Here is my code:
-- get subprofile nodelist
qnlist := xmlparser.getElementsByTagName(doc, 'subprofile');
-- get length of the nodelist
len := xmlparser.getLength(qnlist);
-- loop through elements
for i in 0..len-1 loop
qnode := xmlparser.item(qnlist, i);
qnnode := xmlparser.getFirstChild(qnode);
qnchild := xmlparser.getFirstChild(qnnode);
dbms_output.put_line(xmlparser.getNodeName(qnnode));
dbms_output.put_line(xmlparser.getNodeValue(qnchild));
LOOP
if (xmlparser.isNULL(xmlparser.getNextSibling(qnnode))) then exit;
END IF;
qnnode := xmlparser.getNextSibling(qnnode);
qnchild := xmlparser.getFirstChild(qnnode);
dbms_output.put_line(xmlparser.getNodeName(qnnode));
dbms_output.put_line(xmlparser.getNodeValue(qnchild));
END LOOP;
end loop;
when I execute the procedure, I get the following output:
#text
I am not sure what's wrong with it. Basically, I didn't know the procedure to traverse the tree since here it's a little different from OO programming. Could someone give a sample code which demonstrate the procedure which can get a specific element's name and values? (for my exapmle, the name and value of the <subname>, or <subid>, <subdesc>).
Also, is there a way to insert a part of xml file into a DB table? in my case, insert the subprofile into a table. I know the xmlgen package has a procedure to insert a xml file into a table, but not a part of xml. And can I insert a xml file into several tables instead of one table, using xmlgen package?
looking forward to hearing from you. any suggestion and sample code would be helpful. thank you very much.
null

I sloved my first question: to get the Nodevalue, I need to use getFirstChild(n);
But, I still didn't figure out the second
problem. Actually, It works when I modified my xml file as following:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<profile>
<id>1</id>
<name>Company</name>
<des>master profile</desc>
<subprofile><subid>1</subid><subname>group1</subname><subdesc>groupprofile</subdesc></subprofile>
</profile>
All the <subprofile>....</subprofile> must be in one line without any return. This is unbelievable! It suppose that xml does not matter new lines. I tested my code, it seems space is fine, but new line. Something must be wrong in my code.
please give any suggestion. Thanks,
Yudong

Problem in JAXB for processing XML files

hello
I have been working on a project where i need to process data in XML format. the flow goes thus
I have 28 data elements that i need to represent as a XML so i compile the schema files and generate the class files for each of the tags and thus i can use the get and set methods to read and write to a XML file respectively(example getName and setName)......
Now the problem is that my coding is done if i change my xml file and add say 2 more tags how do i handle it in my code.........
1>Do i have recomplie the schema file and generate new class files every time the xml structure changes. can i avoid this recompiling process and use a one time genrated class files even if the xml structure changes.
2>Now i have hard coded the get and set methods for processing the xml file if i add new tags to my xml i wouldnt have the get set methods for the new tags in my code(say i add a new tag as Phone then i wouldnt have the codes getPhone and setPhone called in my code and this tage was added after the coding was done)........how do i handle this situation. Is is possible that i can get and set data without using these methods and use some sort of a dynamic way of getting and setting data.............
3>Any other approach available to meet the above requirements other than JAXB.
Please help for the above problem
Thank you

hi,
i had written a xml and schema to validate.
my xml would be
<output>
<table>
<row>
<column></column>
<column></column>
</row>
</table>
<document>
<properties>
</properties>
<contents>
</contents>
</document>
<table>
<row>
<column></column>
<column></column>
</row>
</table>
<document>
<properties>
</properties>
<contents>
</contents>
</document>
<table>
<row>
<column></column>
<column></column>
</row>
</table>
<document>
<properties>
</properties>
<contents>
</contents>
</document>
</output>
schema should validate : each table should contain atleast one row element and each row element should have atleast one column. similarly, each document should have atleast one properties and contents element.
if any of these things occur. for ex: if there is no row element in table, i need to delete the table tag. similary if there is no properties/content or both element in document it should delete the corresponding document from the xml.
i tried for table if there is no row element am getting the line number of the </table> tag, based on that am deleting the table element. if there is no properties tag and contents tag is there. am getting the line number for <contents>start tag, with which i could not able to delete the whole document.
can anybody plz help me out for this requirement

Converting text String to XML file data

need some guidance. I have to create a XML file of a huge Text File.
I am parsing the text file according to relevance and passing a set of data each element and attribute seperated by "_".
I need to create to Xml file out this. It has to be current process as I need to keep on adding new elements and attributes.
e.g.
Passing this string
String temp("Name_Age_Birthdate_Birthplace_Place_teleNumber");
Need to add this to XML of format
<Directory>
<Person>
<Name>
<Age>
<Birthdate>.....
</Person>
<Person>
</Person>
</Directory>
The problem not all attributes may be present at some time..
e.g.
the person's age may be absent some times.. during that time the xml file should look like <Age/>
I will need to keep on updating Person list concurrently after the file has been created..
Need Urgent guidance.. I am still New to java
A guidance code or link is awaited..
Thanks.. a Lot

Do you need to stick to the XML support that comes with Java 1.4 or can you use Third-Party stuff? I'm asking, 'cause I think JDOM is much easier to use for a newbie than the build-in XML API ... and it comes with a VERY easy to use class XMLOutputter that creates XML files!
Take a look at JDOM:

Most efficient way to load XML file data into tables

I have a complex XML file running into MBs. I want to load it's data into 7-8 tables.
Which way will be better:
1) Use SQL Loader to actually load directly into the 7-8 tables directly by modifying the control card.
Is this really possible and feasible? I am not even sure about it
2) Load data as XML Type in a table and register it. Then extract from there to load into various tables.
Please help. I have to find the most efficient way of doing it.
Regards,
Sudhir

Yes it is possible to use SQL*Loader to parse and load XML, but that is not what it was designed for and so is not recommended. You also don't need to register a schema, just to load/store/parse XML in the DB either.
So where does that leave you?
Some options
{thread:id=410714} (see page 2)
{thread:id=1090681}
{thread:id=1070213}
Those talk some about storage options and reading in XML from disk and parsing XML. They should also give you options to consider. Without knowing more about your requirements for the effort, it is difficult to give specific advice. Maybe your 7-8 tables don't exist and so using Object Relational Storage for the XML would be the best solution as you can query/update tables that Oracle creates based off the schema associated to the XML. Maybe an External Table definition works better for reading the XML into the system because this process will happen just once. Maybe using WebDAV makes more sense for loading XML to be parsed (I don't have much experience with this, just know it is possible from what I've read on the forums). Also, your version makes a difference as you have different options available depending upon the version of Oracle.
Hope all that helps as a starter.

Processing xml files

Hi all,
I am pretty new to xi. I have a business requirement, where the 3rd party will be sending us an xml file. How can I process this into XI? Can this be done in a file adapter?
Please help. thanks in advance.

Hi Paul,
You have to use File adapter to read xml file.
What is your target? Is it Idoc? RFC?
You have to create data type as per your xml structure.

Issue while processing xml file

Hi guys -
I am getting error 7000 : null : com.sunopsis.sql.l: Oracle Data Integrator Timeout : connection with URL jdbc:snps:xml ...... while processing data from an xml file which is located in linux directory. I have changed the timout parameter from 30 to 500 in my client. Also modified the userpref.xml as suggested by many in forums but no use. When I checked the failed stage it shows that it gets timed out in 30 seconds. The same when i processed from my local window machine worked fine.
Could you please help me overcome this trouble.? Please help.
Thanks

Hi
You can edit userpref.xml file reside inside bin directory of ODI_HOME (oracledi folder). You need to edit the field name "value" (eg: [30] to [60]). Then restart the application and ODI Agent.

Processing XML files that contain Special Characters

Hello:
Before I explain my problem I think I should briefly explain what I am trying to do. I have a JSP page that invokes a Java method (the code is attached). This java method takes in an XML file and an XSLT file. It parses the XSLT and also the XML file. If the parsing went through fine, it then processes the XML file and applies the XSLT to the XML file and returns a XMLDocumentFragment Object back to JSP and the JSP renders it.
This mechanism works well. However off late I have encountered a few XML files containing characters such as &Ecirc (Capital E with circumflex accent). Whenever my Java method tries to parse/process this .xml file it gives me the following error.
ORG.oclc.da.utilities.ifs.ReportException: An Error Occured While Parsing the Report: Missing entity 'Ecirc'. at ORG.oclc.da.archive.userinterface.ReportHelper.retrieveReport(Unknown Source) at /ViewReport.jsp._jspService(/ViewReport.jsp.java:87) (JSP page line 65) at com.orionserver[Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2) Containers for J2EE].http.OrionHttpJspPage.service(OrionHttpJspPage.java:54) at com.evermind[Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2) Containers for J2EE].server.http.HttpApplication.serviceJSP(HttpApplication.java:5458) at com.evermind[Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2) Containers for J2EE].server.http.JSPServlet.service(JSPServlet.java:31) at com.evermind[Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2) Containers for J2EE].server.http.ServletRequestDispatcher.invoke(ServletRequestDispatcher.java:501) at com.evermind[Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2) Containers for J2EE].server.http.ServletRequestDispatcher.forwardInternal(ServletRequestDispatcher.java:170) at com.evermind[Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2) Containers for J2EE].server.http.HttpRequestHandler.processRequest(HttpRequestHandler.java:576) at com.evermind[Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2) Containers for J2EE].server.http.HttpRequestHandler.run(HttpRequestHandler.java:189) at com.evermind[Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2) Containers for J2EE].util.ThreadPoolThread.run(ThreadPoolThread.java:62)
It seems like the Oracle Parser/XSLT Processor (oracle.xml.parser.v2.DOMParser) I am using is not able to handle special characters such &Ecirc. I was wondering if there is anyway around this problem.
Attached is the Java Method that handles both the parsing and processing of the XML file.
/** The method parses the Report Data and applies the Style Sheet to this data
* @param The InputStream (Report Contents - .xml file), Name of the StyleSheet that needs to be applied
* @return A sub-section of the report data (DOM DocumentFragment is returned)
private XMLDocumentFragment parseReport(InputStream reportStream,String strStyleSheet) throws Exception
DOMParser parser;
XMLDocument xml, xsldoc, out;
URL urlStyleSheet;
//Get the URL for the Style Sheet
urlStyleSheet = new URL(strStyleSheet);
//Create an instance of the Dom Parser
parser = new DOMParser();
parser.setPreserveWhitespace(true);
//Parse the XSL document and create a DOM Object
parser.parse(urlStyleSheet);
xsldoc = parser.getDocument();
//Parse the report document (a .xml) and create a DOM Object
parser.parse(reportStream);
xml = parser.getDocument();
// instantiate a stylesheet
XSLStylesheet xsl = new XSLStylesheet(xsldoc, urlStyleSheet);
XSLProcessor processor = new XSLProcessor();
// display any warnings that may occur
processor.showWarnings(true);
// processor.setErrorStream(System.err);
// Process XSL
XMLDocumentFragment result = processor.processXSL(xsl, xml);
return result;
If you have any suggestions please let me know. If you need more information I will be to furnish it.
thanks
Mathangi

Hello,
I just had the same problem, you need to include the approprate entity sets so that the xsl parser will recognize them (and you won't
get the "missing entity" error:
if you already haven't you need to add a DOCTYPE processing instruction for your dtd, to the top of your xml files to be parsed, for ex.:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "file:///mydir/mydtd.dtd">
then in "mydtd.dtd", add references to these 3 entity sets (if you have a dtd - if not then create one just with these entries):
<!ENTITY % HTMLlat1 PUBLIC
"-//W3C//ENTITIES Latin 1 for XHTML//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml-lat1.ent">
%HTMLlat1;
<!ENTITY % HTMLspecial PUBLIC
"-//W3C//ENTITIES Special for XHTML//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml-special.ent">
%HTMLspecial;
<!ENTITY % HTMLsymbol PUBLIC
"-//W3C//ENTITIES Symbols for XHTML//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml-symbol.ent">
%HTMLsymbol;
Or, grab the ".ent" files from the www.w3.org site and put them on your server in the dtd dir, and change the "http:... reference, to
"file:...", it will be faster to parse (that's what I did). FYI, "Ecirc" is in xhtml-lat1.ent.
Also, after I did this,I developed another problem where my xsl parser and xmlmarkup tag-converting function converts certain
html entities to their octal counterparts, and I don't want this and don't know how to stop it (I have a posting out for this also).
Additionally, thanks for posting your parseReport method, it just so happens that I was looking for a way to do something like that,
it should be helpful to me.

It seems like the Oracle Parser/XSLT Processor (oracle.xml.parser.v2.DOMParser) I am using is not able to handle special characters such J. I was wondering if there is anyway around this problem.
Attached is the Java Method that handles both the parsing and processing of the XML file.
/** The method parses the Report Data and applies the Style Sheet to this data
* @param The InputStream (Report Contents - .xml file), Name of the StyleSheet that needs to be applied
* @return A sub-section of the report data (DOM DocumentFragment is returned)
private XMLDocumentFragment parseReport(InputStream reportStream,String strStyleSheet) throws Exception
DOMParser parser;
XMLDocument xml, xsldoc, out;
URL urlStyleSheet;
//Get the URL for the Style Sheet
urlStyleSheet = new URL(strStyleSheet);
//Create an instance of the Dom Parser
parser = new DOMParser();
parser.setPreserveWhitespace(true);
//Parse the XSL document and create a DOM Object
parser.parse(urlStyleSheet);
xsldoc = parser.getDocument();
//Parse the report document (a .xml) and create a DOM Object
parser.parse(reportStream);
xml = parser.getDocument();
// instantiate a stylesheet
XSLStylesheet xsl = new XSLStylesheet(xsldoc, urlStyleSheet);
XSLProcessor processor = new XSLProcessor();
// display any warnings that may occur
processor.showWarnings(true);
// processor.setErrorStream(System.err);
// Process XSL
XMLDocumentFragment result = processor.processXSL(xsl, xml);
return result;
If you have any suggestions please let me know. If you need more information I will be to furnish it.

BPM was Picking two files but it was not processing 2nd file data in target

Hi all,
I have designed scenario for picking two files and i want to merge this files into single structure and send it target.when i am try to testing my bpm was picking two files but it is processing only file it went target system.i have steructe for source like
source1     target
root        header
a           item 0 to unbounded
b            a
c            b
             c
source2     item1 duplicated structure
a            a
b            b
c            c
i am getting two source files with the same structure but i have to map it one target structure and i want to map both source fileds to one target structre under item node so i was duplicated item node and mapped a b c fields from both(2 source structures).while testing BPM is picking two file bu in the target i am getting only first file data under item node,whatever i mapped with duplicate structure with second file i am not getting into target file(target is standard proxy structure so cant' create new one item node in that occurance is 0 to unbounded thats y i duplicated node while testing interface mapping its working fine).can anyone suggest solution for this problem.
Thanks,
Seshagiri.

Hi,
In BPM follow the below steps and hopefully your problem will be solved.
1.     Configure one sender CC to get the files from your application server, once the files hit the BPM now you need to
                     configure your BPM accordingly.
2.     Use the Receiver step in BPM to receive the messages. Use the correlation step to get the correct files.
3.     Use container and append the files, so both the files will be append, this means the message content will
                     have 1header, body, footer, 2header, body, footer.
4.     If you want to split the message to different receiver then use the fork step else leave it.
5.     Use the transformation step, the transformation step will call the message mapping. Provide the correct message
                     mapping.
6.     Now use the sender step to send the message to the receiver-target system. In this step use the split value for each
                      concept if you want to generate two different files.
7.     Configure 1 receiver CC to generate both the files.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Jay

Need help processing XML files

I'm fairly new to Java and have never worked with XML. I need to process several XML files and display them in a matrix for comparison and I'm not sure if I need to understand SAX, DOM or some other API. I'm not creating the files, I'm just parsing them to put into a table so they can be displayed for comparison. I could be processing up to several hundreds of files, so performance would also be an issue.
I'm just looking for options and possible areas I can begin to look for help. Can anyone tell me which APIs would help me acheive my goal?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks for the response Kev. I guess a better diescription of the problem would be to say that I want to display the attributes and values of the differnet files in a matrix.
For example...
Here are 2 sample xml files with the same tags and attributes.
XML FILE A
<tag1 name="Fred", country="ca">
<tag2 group-name="Group 1">
<tag3 color ="blue">
</tag3>
</tag2>
</tag1>
XML FILE B
<tag1 name="Sue", country="us">
<tag2 group-name="Group 2">
<tag3 color="red">
</tag3>
</tag2>
</tag1>
I would like to have them displayed as follows...
XML FILE A XML FILE B
tag1 name           Fred Sue
tag1 country           ca us
tag2 group-name          Group 1 Group 2
tag3 Color          Blue     Red
HTML tags didn't work, so the matrix is bunched together, but I think you get the idea. My question is, which would be better to use SAX or DOM. I could be running this on as many as 50 or 60 files, so the matrix could get very large and performance could be an issue as multiple users could be doing this comparison at the same time.

Loading XML file data

Hello
I am using Spry.Widget.AutoSuggest to sort the data from an
external XML file
In the XML there are some url-s pointing to pictures to be
loaded but the problem is that they all loads in the cache as the
page initializes.
Although they are not shown at the begining i can see them
caching ( firebug for mozilla)
Is there any way to load the appropriate pictures (data) just
after it matches the AutoSuggest search criteria.
the example files are :
http://www.evtinobg.com/newWebSite/_search.php
http://www.evtinobg.com/newWebSite/models.xml
thanx a lot

Please read the FAQ thread and posting guidelines... Also please see the XML DB basic demo.. And try forum search, this question (or variant's of it) have been asked and answered so many times that it's really not worth starting (another) new thread on this issue.
