RE: (forte-users) XML Parser - Reading an XML document intothe Document

Hi Laks
Here is an example of converting a XML doc to a DOM object.
The method is ParseXML(pXMLString:TextData, pListType:CSAListInterface).
Hope this helps.

Hi guys,
I have been trying to read an XML file and feed it into the XMLParser.
I have read about the DOM API, and i can work with the DOM API in java

Sorry for this post, here ist the complete text.
Is it possible to create a XML Parser (javax.xml.parsers.SaxParser or javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder) which reads from a ByteChannel?
Example:
java.nio.channels.FileChannel fc = new ...;
javax.xml.parsers.SaxParser parser = ...;
org.xml.sax.HandlerBase hb = ...;
parser.parse( fc, hb );

I would be interested to see TechNote 11811. I just tried the Forté support
web site and couldn't get it. Can anyone help?

XML Parsing for one xml tag value we have issues

Hi All
We are getting XML file from External System using XML parser to decode and update Oracle Tables.
It's working ok for all fields for one field it's working i.e we are not getting any Value
l_n dbms_xmldom.DOMNode;
v_service_level VARCHAR2(240);
Begin
l_clob := p_clob;
BEGIN
-- Create a parser.
l_parser := dbms_xmlparser.newParser;
-- Parse the document and create a new DOM document.
dbms_xmlparser.parseClob(l_parser, l_clob);
l_doc := dbms_xmlparser.getDocument(l_parser);
-- Free resources associated with the CLOB and Parser now they are needed.
dbms_xmlparser.freeParser(l_parser);
-- Get a list of all the nodes in the document
l_nl := dbms_xslprocessor.selectNodes(dbms_xmldom.makeNode(l_doc), '/response');
-- Loop through the list and create a new record
FOR rec IN 0 .. dbms_xmldom.getLength(l_nl) - 1 LOOP
l_n := dbms_xmldom.item(l_nl, rec);
-- assign values to the elements of the collection.
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'awb/text()', v_awb);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'carrier/text()', v_carrier);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'pieces/text()', v_pieces);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'weight/text()', v_weight);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'weight_uom/text()', v_weight_uom);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'price/text()', v_price);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'code_currency/text()', v_code_currency);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'date_pickup/text()', v_date_pickup);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'account/text()', v_account);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'reference/text()', v_reference);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'instruction/text()', v_instruction);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'delivery_condition/text()', v_freight_terms);
dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'service_level/text()', v_service_level);
end;
for v_service_level we are having issues though external system is sending value but we are not getting any value
If any fix for this it will be of great help
Thanks

Oracle XML Parser validation against XML Sxhema

Hi,
I am developing a program in C++ on Unix, that does parsing on an XML document. For parsing I am using "Oracle XML Parser" [using DOM API]. My question is, Can Oracle XML Parser validate xml document against an XML Schema file also? I have read in many tutorials that it can validate against DTD. Please clarify my question as early as possible?
Regards,
Raghuram.

Hi Kulkarni,
I think you are trying to retrieve the text of the parent element of book. For example if this is the xml element
<bookdetails>
<book>Harry Potter</book>
<author>JK Rowling</author>
<price>34.55</price>
</book>
</bookdetails>
You must be trying to retrieving the text of bookdetails.
Check XMLNode.getNodeName() to retrieve the name of the node.
To get 'Harry Potter' as output you need to traverse till book and then use XMLNode.getText()
You can check the 'getQuestions()' method in Survey Sample
to know how to tranverse to any element of an XML using Java.
The Survey Sample is located at
http://otn.oracle.com/sample_code/tech/xml/survey/content.html
Download the sample and unjar it. The location of Analyser.java is
SurveySample\code\Survey\src\oracle\otnsamples\survey\business\Analyser.java
Have a look at it.
Regards,
Anupama

Deserialization error: XML parsing error: Illegal XML character

Hi All,
Anybody knows what caused this? This error occured at the client side when the server returned an object that contains other objects to client during a jaxrpc call. It worked before, something is definitely changed, I reversed my changes but still the same.
Please help, thanx a lot.

What type of encoding are you using? Do you transform a string in an array of bytes or viceversa?

Open Dataset for XML not reading the XML file, Returning Code 8.

Dear all,
Im trying to open an XML file using Open Dataset, since i have to execute this report in background and GUI_upload doesnt work in background.
The XML file is available in my C:\, say, C:\xmlfile.xml.
But the open dataset is not reading any value into the g_xml_line . it is returning sy-subrc = 8.
Below is my code for that, can anybody help me out to resolve.
DATA : lv_filename LIKE rlgrap-filename.
CLEAR: lv_filename.
lv_filename = p_input.
OPEN DATASET lv_filename FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.
IF sy-subrc ne 0.
    WRITE:/ 'invalid file'.
else.
DO.
    READ DATASET lv_filename INTO g_xml_line.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
      APPEND g_xml_line TO g_xml_table.
    ELSE.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
ENDDO.
CLOSE DATASET lv_filename.
   ENDIF.
TYPES: BEGIN OF t_xml_line,

Xml parsing error while selecting whole result set for sql query

Hi All,
I am having xml parsing error while selecting whole query result set. The data is coming fine for default result set of 50 rows.
My exception is below.
ORA-31011: XML parsing failed
ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing
LPX-00234: namespace prefix "xsi" is not declared

*31011. 00000 - "XML parsing failed"*
**Cause: XML parser returned an error while trying to parse the document.*
**Action: Check if the document to be parsed is valid.*
My sql query is below that is giving results for default result set of 50 rows.
select extract(xmlType(clob_xml_colm_name), '//v2:node1//childnode/text()','xmlns:v2="namespace_url"').getStringVal() from table_name
My sql developer version is below.

My database version is below.
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.5.0 - 64bit
Please could any one help me urgently as the sql query is supposed to be correct as it is returning query results, but the problem happening when i try to select whole result set.
Thanks and regards,

What does the XML look like? It appears that some of the supposed XML stored as a CLOB is not really valid XML. Find the row in the table that is causing your issue and review the "XML" in it.

Diacritic screwing up XML parsing

Hola -
I've got a procedure which chews through some database input & produces RSS feeds (as taken from a Tyler Muth posting). It started bailing and I traced it down to a particular entry in the table which has a diacritic, which won't be uncommon for me - the name Çınlar seems to cause XML parsing to fail w/the ff. error:
ORA-31011: XML parsing failed
ORA-06512: at "SUPERVISOR.RSSLOOP3", line 30
ORA-06512: at line 1
31011. 00000 - "XML parsing failed"
*Cause: XML parser returned an error while trying to parse the document.
*Action: Check if the document to be parsed is valid.
Questions are: 1) Why would this be, the data is all coming from the same 10gr2 instance; 2) How can I avoid this? The code for the procedure is below, although I assume this is simply a character set/XML parsing issue I'm unfamiliar with. Many, many thanks for any assistance here. I stand perplexed! I know I can scrub the data with translate but I'm hoping there's a better solution, ideally one which allows me to keep all the diacritics in place.

Problem casting org.w3c.dom.Document to oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLDocument

I have the following problem:
I get my xml-documents as an XMLType from the database and want to compare these using the supplied Oracle class oracle.xml.differ.XMLDiff (i use the java version supplied with Oracle 9i r2).
XMLType.getDOM() returns the xml-document as a org.w3c.dom.Document,
what i need for oracle.xml.differ.XMLDiff is a oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLDocument.
How can i cast/convert between these two formats?
thanks!
p.s. cross-posting with Re: Casting/Converting XMLType to XMLDocument? (but i think this forum is more relevant).

Hi,
thanks for the suggestion: i have written the code shown below. It results in a casting error.
As far as i know, i don't use a oracle.xdb.dom.XDBDocument, i only use a oracle.xdb.XMLType as the input parameter for my conversion-method:
any new suggestions ???
p.s. the second method which is commented does work, but is a bit verbose.
   private static oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLDocument convert2XMLDocument(XMLType xml) {
     // simple version (should work according to tech. doc. 9i r2/ 10g r1 database)
     oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLDocument doc = null;
     try {
        // n.b. probleem is dat XMLType.getDOM() een w3c.Document object teruggeeft ipv een oracle.XMLDocument.
        System.out.println("convert2XMLDocument(): casting w3c.Document naar oracle.XMLDocument.");
        doc = (oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLDocument) xml.getDOM(); // public org.w3c.dom.Document getDOM()
        System.out.println("convert2XMLDocument(): done casting w3c.Document naar oracle.XMLDocument.");
     catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace(System.out);
    return doc;
   private static XMLDocument convert2XMLDocument(XMLType xml) {
     // complex version: works ok !!!
     XMLDocument doc = null;
     try{
        DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();
        parser.setValidationMode(oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLParser.NONVALIDATING);
        parser.setPreserveWhitespace (true);
        parser.parse(new StringReader(xml.getStringVal()));
        doc = parser.getDocument();
    catch ( XMLParseException e ) {
      e.printStackTrace(System.out);
    catch ( SQLException e ) {
      e.printStackTrace(System.out);
    catch ( Exception e ) {
      e.printStackTrace(System.out);
    return doc;

There is a xml parser written in pl/sql

Hi everybody,
We know xml parser for pl/sql is based on xml parser for java, that is, we need the Jsever running. However, Jserver needs 60-80 MB of memory and initially we don't need Jserver, except for xml parsing. Then:
There is a xml parser written in pure pl/sql ?.
Thanks for your help!
Jairo.

PL/SQL is not sufficient to write for XML Parsing. The implementation is either in C or in Java.
If you use Oracle9i, you can take use of XMLType for the C-based XML Parser.

Java 5.0 XML Parsing Error

I've written a XML parser awhile ago, and it works perfectly when running using Java 1.4.2_04.
Now when running with Java 5.0 Beta 2, the parser simply crashes. It looks like when using node.getAttributes(), it reads in each attributes in reverse order than the parser in Java 1.4.2_04. The last attribute is indexed 0, and so forth ...
I wonder if anyone else has experienced this? Is this a bug in Java 5.0 Beta 2? Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

But my question is why Java 5.0 XML parser reads in
attributes in different order? Isn't that a potential
compatibility problem for a lot of codes written for
Java 1.4.2?The XML specification explicitly says that the order of attributes is meaningless. So your "why" is a pointless question. (You'll notice that all Java parsers return the attributes in a Map, which has no specified order.) And it's only a potential compatibility problem for code that erroneously relies on the behaviour of a particular parser.

URGENT! SEGV-errors when using Oracle C XML Parser for Solaris

I often (not always) got SEGV-error with core dump when I use Oracle Oracle C XML Parser for Solaris. This Error is always got in the call of the the function xmlinit(...) with all params as NULL but the first required for the error code and the second which i assign a macro that evaluates to "US-ASCII". Does anyone knows about this problem?
I am using a very short, wellformed and validated XML document.
I would be very glad for some help about this!
null

Please provide a sample program along with the version number of the XML parser.
