Read XML file inside WAR

Hi,
I have an application developed using struts. I am deploying in weblogic 8.1
I have an xml file placed inside the WAR under a folder props.
How can i read the file in my action class or in a utility class?
please let me know the solution
thanks in advance
Srinivas

Try this ...
actually this can read the embedded files in the jar file.
as i understand there is no difference between .jar and .war file (only sematic diff)
so if this helps , please do let me know..
URL url = <your action class>.getClass().getResource("/props/your.xml");
 System.out.println(url);
 try
 InputStream is = url.openStream();
 BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
 String line = br.readLine();
 while(line!=null)
 System.out.println(line);
 line = br.readLine();
 }catch(Exception e)
 System.out.println(e);
plase be a little careful about the path for getResource ..
Thanks

Reading XML file having various foreign languages from web application.

Greeting..
I'm dealing with a so-called serious problem where-in:
I've to read one of the configuration files(XML files) having values in different foreign languages (like Chinese, Japanese, Arabic etc). I've to read that file contents, in as it is form, in such a way that user can read / change the data from the web application.
I'm showing the XML file inside the TextArea (the HTML <textarea> tag. While reading this file, it got converted to junk values instead of actual ones. While saving this file it changes those original values to junk in file as well.
I'm using SAX parser with DefaultHandler.
Better suggestions are welcome.
Thanks in advance

Do NOT display the characters to determine the problem. Instead take a small sample and print the numeric values. And do that at each stage/layer until they do not match.

How to Read all files inside resource Folder inside Jar?

I have a Jar file,,,, The program reads for resource files in the resource folder inside the Jar. I want my program to read all files inside this folder without knowing the names or the number of files in the folder.
I am using this to make an Applet easy to be updated with spicific files. I just want to add a file inside the resource folder and Jar the program and automatically the program reads what ever is in there!!
I used the File class to get all file names inside the resource folder. it works fine before Jarring the program. After I jar I recieve a URI not Herarichy Exception!!
File fold=new java.io.File(getClass().getResource(folder).toURI());
String[] files=fold.list();
I hope the question is clear!!

How to get the directory and jar file that you class resides in:
// returns path and jarfile (ex: /home/mydir/my.jar)
public String getJarfileName()
        // Get the location of the jar file and the jar file name
        java.net.URL outputURL = YourClass.class.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation();
        String outputString = outputURL.toString();
        String[] parseString;
        int index1 = outputString.indexOf(":");
        int index2 = outputString.lastIndexOf(":");
        if (index1!=index2) // Windows/DOS uses C: naming convention
           parseString = outputString.split("file:/");
        else
           parseString = outputString.split("file:");
        String jarFilename = parseString[1];
       return jarFilename;
}If your my.jar was in /home/mydir, it will store "/home/mydir/my.jar" in jarFilename.
note: getLocation returns "file:/C:/home/mydir/my.jar" for Windows/DOS and "file:/home/mydir/my.jar" for windows, thus why I look for the first and last index of the colon so I can correctly split the string.
If you want to grab a file in the jar file and get an InputStream, do the following:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.Enumeration;
// jar stuff
import java.util.jar.*;
import java.util.zip.ZipEntry;
public class Jaris
   private JarFile jf;
   public Jaris(String jarFilename) throws Exception
       try
                       jf = new JarFile(jarFilename);
       catch (Exception e)
            jf=null;
            throw(e);
   public InputStream getInputStream(String matchString) throws Exception
       ZipEntry ze=null;
       try
          Enumeration resources = jf.entries();
          while ( resources.hasMoreElements() )
             JarEntry je = (JarEntry) resources.nextElement();
             // find a file that matches this string from anywhere in my jar file
             if ( je.getName().matches(".*\\"+matchString) )
                String filename=je.getName();
                ze=jf.getEntry(filename);
      catch (Exception e)
         throw(e);
      InputStream is = jf.getInputStream(ze);
      return is;
   // for testing the Jaris methods
   public static void main(String[] args)
      try
           String jarFilename=getJarfileName();
           Jaris jis = new Jaris(jarFilename); // this is the string we got from the other method listed above
           InputStream is=jis.getInputStream("myfile.txt"); // can be used for xml, xsl, etc
      catch (Exception e)
         // this is just a test, so we'll ignore the exception

FM to read XML files from Application server in ECC5.0

Hi All,
We need to pick up an XML file from Application server/FTP server. The requirement is to parse the XML file and process it to create material master. SAP provides standard function modules to read XML files.
Now we need to read the XML file contents of MM01 and upload into SAP Data Base through BAPI
I need to know about the Function modules to read XML files from Application Server and also about the FM's that will update the Date base tables with the data obtained form XML files.
Regards
Prathima

Reading XML file from application server and put into internal table-4.6C

Dear All,
Is there any way of reading XML file from application server to SAP? I am using 4.6C. Function module SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING function module is not available. Please suggest.
Thanks and regards,
Atanu

Hi Atanu!
Simply use the XSLT transformation 'ID'.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <ls_result> TYPE ANY.
CREATE DATA lref_data TYPE (your_structure).
ASSIGN lref_data->* TO <ls_result>.
CALL TRANSFORMATION id
SOURCE XML xmlstr
RESULT result = <ls_result>.
"xmlstr" contains your XML file. Just read it into it via standard I/O operations. "<ls_result>" will contain your DDIC formatted content.
Best regards

Reading XML file using BAPI I must use adapters .

Reading XML file using BAPI and then uploading that xml file data into SAP using BDC.
I cant take file on to my Application server I am getting the file dynamically from other file server and I need to use BAPis to read data from XML file.please tell me what should be my Import,Export and Tables parameterrs should be.
Thanks

Hi,
Import, export and table parameters for BAPI is required, without that BAPI will not able to collect the data from XML. What you need to do is write a Zprogram and collect the data, store that data in internal table and call the BAPI by passing required parameters.
Different Scanarios:
1) Before calling a BAPI write some other program which collects the data from XML and create a UNIX file. Try to get the data from UNIX FILE
2) If you see the XML tags, data will be in side that tags, try to get the data from XML tags and store that data in one SAP table. You can use the BAPI by fetching the data from table
3)Create a table and store the data in the table. Use the table in SAP to extract the data.
BAPI won't work without any parameters, you have to pass some parameters then the BAPI will return some values.
Hope i am clear.
Thanks&Regards,

UCCX Reading XML file hosted on IIS web server

hi guys,
i have a customer on CCX 8.5 environment and they have a .NET application running on an IIS web server. As part of this .NET application, the app produce an XML file.
My questions is
"Can CCX read XML file that is hosted externally on IIS web server rather than parsing the XML file on CCX document repository?"
All of the examples of XML parsing points to the XML file in document repository.
Any pointers to links and documentation/example on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.
If this is not achievable, if you could kindly suggest a different way of doing it too would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Daniel

Hi,
to be quite honest with you, I don't know anything about Sharepoint - so I am afraid I cannot help you with its XML editing capabilities. XML is just a well formed text file that follows some logical rules, so no additional application is required for editing, in fact, I always encourage everybody to use Notepad/Textpad/ to read and edit XML files. Of course, if it's not possible, you will find a great number of various user friendly XML editing applications.
A UCCX script will normally access an XML using the Create URL Document step and then, using the Get XML Document data step with the help of an XPath expression, will filter out the necessary information from the XML document.
The protocols used are standard and well known, including HTTP and XPath (and XML itself). So it does not really matter what kind of HTTP server serves the XML file, IIS is just an option.
Examples may be found in the Scripting guides for your particular UCCX version.
