Read XML file node data in CLOB column

Hi Friends,
Here is my information.
CREATE TABLE TABL1
( A CLOB,
B NUMBER,
C VARCHAR2(10))
INSERT INTO TABL1 VALUES ('<PARENT><CHILD1> 12 </CHILD1><CHILD2> 22 </CHILD2></PARENT>',1,'FIRST');
INSERT INTO TABL1 VALUES ('<PARENT2><CHILD> 11 </CHILD1><CHILD2> 21 </CHILD2></PARENT>',2,'SECOND');
My requirement is I need to pickup the value existed between child2 node for both records.
Could any one help me to resolve this issue?
Thanks
Venkata

You mean like this?
SQL> INSERT INTO TABL1 VALUES ('<PARENT><CHILDONE>12</CHILDONE><CHILDTWO>22</CHILDTWO></PARENT>',1,'FIRST');
1 row created.
SQL> INSERT INTO TABL1 VALUES ('<PARENT><CHILDONE>11</CHILDONE><CHILDTWO>21</CHILDTWO></PARENT>',2,'SECOND');
1 row created.
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 select extractvalue(xmltype(a),'//CHILDTWO/text()') as val
2* from tabl1
SQL> /
VAL
22
21

File Adapter : read XML file with data validation and file rejection ?

Hello,
In order to read a XML file with the file adapter, I have defined a XSD that I have imported to my project.
Now the File Adapter reads the file correctly but it does not give an error when:
- the data types are not valid. Ex: dateTime is expected in a node and a string is provided
- the XML file has invalid attributes.
How can I manage error handling for XML files ?
Should I write my own Java XPath function to validate the file after is processed ? (here is an example for doing this : http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Web_Languages/XML/Q_21058568.html)
Thanks.

one option is to specify validateXML on the partnerlink (that describes the file adapter endpoint) such as shown here
<partnerLinkBinding name="StarLoanService">
<property name="wsdlLocation"> http://<hostname>:9700/orabpel/default/StarLoan/StarLoan?wsdl</property>
<property name="validateXML">true</property>
</partnerLinkBinding>

Please recommend if we have options to read xml file and insert data into table without a temporary table.

Load and Read XML file size more than 4GB

Hi All
My environment is Oracle 10.2.0.4 on Solaris and I have processes to work with XML file as below detail by PL/SQL
1. I read XML file over HTTP port into XMLTYPE column in table.
2. I read value no.1 from table and extract to insert into another table
On test db, everything is work but I got below error when I use production XML file
     ORA-31186: Document contains too many nodes
Current XML size about 100MB but the procedure must support XML file size more than 4GB in the future.
Belows are some part of my code for your info.
1. Read XML by line into variable and insert into table
LOOP
UTL_HTTP.read_text(http_resp, v_resptext, 32767);
DBMS_LOB.writeappend (v_clob, LENGTH(v_resptext), v_resptext);
    END LOOP;
    INSERT INTO XMLTAB VALUES (XMLTYPE(v_clob));
2. Read cell value from XML column and extract to insert into another table
DECLARE
CURSOR c_xml IS
(SELECT trim(y.cvalue)
FROM XMLTAB xt,
XMLTable('/Table/Rows/Cells/Cell' PASSING xt.XMLDoc
COLUMNS
cvalue
VARCHAR(50)
PATH '/') y;
    BEGIN
OPEN c_xml;
FETCH c_xml INTO v_TempValue;
<Generate insert statement into another table>
EXIT WHEN c_xml%NOTFOUND;
CLOSE c_xml;
    END
And one more problem is performance issue when XML file is big, first step to load XML content to XMLTYPE column slowly.
Could you please suggest any solution to read large XML file and improve performance?
Thank you in advance.
Hiko

See Mark Drake's (Product Manager Oracle XMLDB, Oracle US) response in this old post: ORA-31167: 64k size limit for XML node
The "in a future release" reference, means that this boundary 64K / node issue, was lifted in 11g and onwards...
So first of all, if not only due to performance improvements, I would strongly suggest to upgrade to a database version which is supported by Oracle, see My Oracle Support... In short Oracle 10.2.x was in extended support up to summer 2013, if I am not mistaken and is currently not supported anymore...
If you are able to able to upgrade, please use the much, much more performing XMLType Securefile Binary XML storage option, instead of the XMLType (Basicfile) CLOB storage option.

How to read xml file as shown below.

Hello,
I am using flash builder 4 and currently working on implementing AIR application.
I need to read xml file data.
Normal xml files are easy to read and i am much more aware of it.
But can any one have idea how to read XML file which is given below.
<node>
<key>ID</key>
<integer>1</integer>
<key>Name</key>
<string>Dhwani</string>
<key>Postno</key>
<integer>20</integer>
<key>deskname</key>
<string>flex</string>
<key>empid</key>
<integer>25</integer>
<key>projectname</key>
<string>abc</string>
</node>
Here i have xml file in form of key value pair. <key> node shows name of the key and after that <integer> or <string> node are the value for that specific key.
if i select node.key then it shows me all the keys. and from that i cant make out what is the value for key ID.
Is there any way to take first node and then second. i mean first i ll take value of key and store it into some arraycollection. and then value will be stored.
Any help is appreciated.. Looking for positive reply.
Thanks
Dhwani

There are different methods to access XML data which have pro's and cons. Let us know more about what you want to do and we can help you.

How to read Read XML File

How can i read data from xml file and store relevant data in my database? what r the initial requirements to read xml file.

So if the Database is in Japanese for instance, using Unicode, and you wanted to use pl/sql queries to create an XML file you could do that and then read that XML file back into pl/sql insert queries after web transmission to another Oracle 8i database? Any good resources that you know of for doing this kind of thing?
-dan
It depends on exactly what you want to do. If you fetch an XML document from a web page you can store it as a CLOB in the database, if you want to read it from a file you need to be aware of character set translation problems when using Unicode character sets and dbms_lob.Read function, use utl_file instead. If you wish to transform the XML document using XSLT then you need to load the stylesheet from OS, parse it and apply it to the document.
If you want some sample code then reply with a mail address.

hello Michael thanks for your help but appear to me some strange errors, i created this package in Oracle SQL Developer...
create or replace PACKAGE PACKAGE_XML AS
type return_cur IS ref CURSOR;
procedure INSERTXML4(

and compile and everthing is ok, then i changed my SP and it looks like this:
create or replace PROCEDURE INSERTXML4

rowcnt := dbms_xmlsave.insertxml(insCtx, xmlDoc);
dbms_xmlsave.closecontext(insCtx);
OPEN refcur FOR SELECT rowcnt AS cnt FROM dual;
END INSERTXML4;
but i cant compile...it throws this errors:

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

or alternatively check out ABAP online help for "CALL TRANSFORMATION".
For creating the material master look at BAPI_STANDARDMATERIAL_CREATE.

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
Torsten
