Saving xml files in oracle database

hi all
anyone who could tell me how can i save xml files in the database?

In order to provide an intelligent answer we need much more information. Please describe the problem you are trying to solve in more detail. The kind of information that would help is
Database Version ?
What is the source of the XML Files ?
What is the size of the Files ?
How are they stored prior to wanting to load them into the database, on the database server or on a client ?
What is you preferred programming language ?
What kind of querys to do you want to run against the files once they are stored in the database ?
Note if your database version is pre 9i then the question can be better answered in the forum Technologies -> XML -> General
I can move you post there if appropriate

Edited by: user3523292 on Nov 14, 2008 5:43 AMThis is a forum of volunteers. There is no "urgent" here. Nevertheless, a google search of 'xml oracle export' quickly lead me to this Oracle site:
otn.oracle.com/sample_code/tech/xml/index.html
I also see lots of hits when I search the documentation library at tahiti.oracle.com for 'xml'. This one in particular may be what you are looking for:

Extract data from XML file to Oracle database

Dear All
Please let me know, how to extract data from XML file to Oracle database which includes texts & images.
Thanking You
Regards Lakmal Marasinghe

I would do it from the database, but then again, I am a database / PL/SQL guy.
IMHO the database will deliver you with more options. I don't know about "speed" between the two.

Performance problems loading an XML file into oracle database

Hello ODI Guru's,
I am trying to load and XML file into the database after doing simple business validations. But the interface takes hours to complete.
1. The XML files are large in size >200 Mb. We have an XSD file for the schema definition instead of a DTD.
2. We used the external database feature for loading these files in database.
The following configuration was used in the XML Data Server:
jdbc:snps:xml?f=D:\CustomerMasterData1\CustomerMasterInitialLoad1.xml&d=D:\CustomerMasterData1\CustomerMasterInitialLoad1.xsd&re=initialLoad&s=CM&db_props=oracle&ro=true
3. Now we reverse engineer the XML files and created models using ODI Designer
4. Similar thing was done for the target i.e. an Oracle database table as well.
5. Next we created a simple interface with one-to-one mapping from the XSD schema to the Oracle database table and executed the interface. This execution takes more than one hour to complete.
6. We are running ODI client on Windows XP Professional SP2.
7. The Oracle database server(Oracle 10g 10.2.0.3) for the target schema as well as the ODI master and work repositories are on the same machine.
8. I tried changing the following properties but it is not making much visible difference:
use_prepared_statements=Y
use_batch_update=Y
batch_update_size=510
commit_periodically=Y
num_inserts_before_commit=30000
I have another problem that when I set batch_update_size to value greater that 510 I get the following error:
java.sql.SQLException: class org.xml.sax.SAXException
class java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException said -32413
at com.sunopsis.jdbc.driver.xml.v.a(v.java)
The main concern is why should the interface taking so long to execute.
Please send suggestions to resolve the problem.
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,
Nikunj

Approximately how many rows are you trying to insert?
One of the techniques which I found improved performance for this scenario was to extract from the xml to a flat file, then to use SQL*LOADER or external tables to load the data into Oracle.

Load XML file into oracle database

Hi
i have a xml file and the XSD(Schema definition file for XML). i need to load the xml file into the database.
Can you please tell me the best approach for this ?

There are plenty of examples of this on the XML DB Forum.
Here is a link to the FAQ for that forum...

How to generate XML file from oracle database query result

Hi dudes,
as stated on the subject, can anyone suggests me how can i achieve the task stated above??
Here is a brief description of my problem:
I need to create a XML file once i query from the oracle database, and the query result returned from the database will be stored in XML file.
I'd searched around the JAXB, DOM, SAXP and the like basic concepts, but i still don't know how to start??
Any suggestions ???

.xml files from Oracle database

Hi all,
Just need bit of Info about, Interface to other systems with an Oracle application:
Currently we have Interface with ABC application. We create a .txt file every night through a batch job about 7.30 pm and that .txt file FTP's to the ABC system. That ABC system update their tables with that .txt file and genrate and another .txt file and FTP's to us about 9 pm every weekday then it updates out tables.
Now the ABC system changing their system to web based system and want to change file type from .txt to .xml
I have just started reading about XML but like to know if we create a file with the extention of .xml instead if .txt is that going to work.
and the file we receive every day about 9 ish is changing to .xml as well, so what changes do we have to make in our database for this
I know this seems to me a vague question, but any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
this seems to be a database releated question and is better asked on the database forum.

Techinical issue loading an XML file in to database

hi,
i am trying to load an XML file into Oracle database using SSIS 2005. the XML file is huge with 4000+ columns and also has many sub catogoreys. if i try to load the file using XSD it is taking lot of space to read the entire file upto 10GB even if the data row in the file is only one. I am only loading 60 columns out of the 4000+ columns. please provide me any alternatives that you can think of.
Thanks in advance.

I think Oracle's support for loading XML data to relational tables could be improved. I haven't found a scalable solution for very large XML files that doesn't involve breaking the file up into little parts or writing / copying a good bit of code.XML DB provides two efficient ways to load XML data relationally :
- Object-Relational storage and FTP : the file is send to the XDB repository and inserted into the default XMLType table declared during schema registration. The underlying storage structures (collections, nested tables) are loaded directly while the data source is read.
Then it's just a matter of building views over the XMLType table to present the data relationally.
We can process several GBs with this method.
- Binary XML and streaming XPath evaluation : binary XML is a post-parsed format which is optimized for streaming processing, it's available since 11.1 and now the default starting with 11.2.0.2.
and you are supposed to parse the whole thing and return any errors before actually doing anything.That's the DOM view of things.
XML DB doesn't use DOM when documents are first stored as XMLType (binary or OR storage), or when it does, for example if a functional evaluation of XQuery is required, then a "lazy DOM" model is used where only the needed part(s) of the XML is (are) retrieved.

Storing data from XML files in Oracle DB

Hi!
I just started to work with XML and need to save data from XML files into Oracle database. I tried to run sample from Oracle web site. The code was following:
public class xmlwritedb
public static void main(String args[]) throws SQLException
String tabName = "EMP"; // Table into which to insert XML data
String fileName = "emp.xml"; // XML document filename
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
// Initialize a JDBC connection
Connection conn =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:oci8:scott/tiger@");
// Insert XML data from file (filename) into
// database table (tabName)
OracleXMLSave save = new OracleXMLSave(conn, tabName);
URL url = save.createURL(fileName);
int rowCount = save.insertXML(url);
System.out.println(" successfully inserted "+rowCount+
" rows into "+ tabName);
conn.close();
But it does not work.
OracleXMLSave object does not see file name.
Please, help me solve this problem. Also,where is it possible to find any documentation on oracle.xml.* classes API.
Thank you.
Maya.

Extract data from xml file to Oracle table

hello to all members of forum..i have this stored procedures:
create or replace
PROCEDURE INSERTXML2(
p_xml_in XMLType,
p_table IN VARCHAR2 ) AS
v_context DBMS_XMLStore.ctxType;
v_rows NUMBER;
BEGIN
insCtx := DBMS_XMLStore.newContext(p_table); -- get saved context
dbms_xmlstore.setRowTag(insCtx,'Row');
DBMS_XMLStore.clearUpdateColumnList(insCtx); -- clear the update settings
-- set the columns to be updated as a list of values
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdateColumn(insCtx,'ORDERNUMBER');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdateColumn(insCtx,'PLANT');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdateColumn(insCtx,'MATERIAL');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdateColumn(insCtx,'LINENUMBER');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdatecolumn(insCtx,'NOMSPEED');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdatecolumn(insCtx,'STARTDATE');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdatecolumn(insCtx,'FINISHDATE');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdatecolumn(insCtx,'TARGETQTY');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdatecolumn(insCtx,'UNIT');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdatecolumn(insCtx,'SYSTEMSTATUS');
v_rows := DBMS_XMLStore.insertXML(insCtx, xmldocument);
-- Close the context
DBMS_XMLStore.closeContext(insCtx);
END;
that works well in little XML files but in XML files that are bigger the stored procedures to not work because string maximum length in Oracle is 4000..can anyone know a solution to pass over this problem?!?!
one more thing im working with Oracle SQL Developer and Sap Mii, the XML file is generated in Sap Mii and then i have to pass it in one step to database..my one step is this stored procedure
one more thing im working with Oracle SQL developer and SAP Mii
regards and thanks in advance

You can use CLOB for big files.

Hello Anybody, I have a question. Can any of you please suggest me how to make an xml file from the database table with all the rows? Note:- I am having the XSD Schema file and the resulted XML file should be in that XSD format only.

The Oracle documentation has a good overview of the options available
Generating XML Data from the Database
Without knowing your version, I just picked 11.2, so you made need to look for that chapter in the documentation for your version to find applicable information.

Flat file to Oracle Database - Invalid Month

Hi All
I am New to XI and trying to create a simple interface between Legacy system (flat file) and Oracle database.
I have some date fields in the Oracle table.
When i run the interface it says "invalid month" with some SQL exception number.
I am using (mm/dd/yyyy) format for the date.
Is there any conversion i need to do. I am using XML SQL format for Oracle database.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Nagakishore

Hello,
Oracle is very picky with the way date is stored. Assume that you have a field datefield that you need to save. In mapping add an attribute hasqQuote and set it to "NO". When mapping the value to the node use to_date as shown below.
<DateField hasQuot="No">
TO_DATE("2004-07-20", "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mi:ss")</DateField>
cheers,
Naveen
