Search informations about using XML to create scripts (automate tests)

Hello,
I search some (A LOT OF...) informations about using XML in Labview. I know that Labview use a specific schema for XML, but I search examples or tutorials.
My aim is to control a VI with a script in XML, I would know if I can generate "while loop", modified attributes etc... with my XML file?
Bye

Hi leo,
first for all others: this is related to this thread!
Then:
Your script should be handled by LabView in an interpreter-style. So you read in the script and parse the commands. For each command that is supported you have to provide the functionality in a state-machine like handling routine.
I would stay away from the before mentioned "LabView scripting", atleast for production-type programs as LV-Scripting is not supported by NI (and not easy to handle...)!

Using XML to create files through API

Hi.
I created a new custom type - a subclass of "Document", with a few private attributes.
I wrote a small XML file that creates an instance of that type.
I have no problem using that XML with FTP or with the web interface - it parses the XML automatically and creates my custom file.
However, when I try to use the java API to do the same, it just copies the XML file into IFS, but doesn't parse it or creates the custom file that is defined in it.
I am using the IFSFileSystem.createDocument method, with parsing set to true, and "null" for the callback parameter.
Of course, the XML parser is registered (as I said, it works with FTP and web interface).
Please help.
Thanks, Edo.

Sure .. you can use XML as the data source. If you have DW8,
you can even
do it right in the Dreamweaver Interface.

How Do You Use XML To Create Image Upload On A WebSite?

Hello,
Could some one please help me understand how to create web image gallery and web video gallery using XML? I have found few xml codes that could be used to do this but I am not so sure how to use them. I want my clients to be able upload images and videos with linking thumbnails to Image and or Videos. Do you think the codes I included in this question will help me achive this goal? And do I need to put all in one and in the same directory so it will work? Please help with your idea and tell me how you would use these codes and how you may step-by-step implement the idea your self to your own web site.
I have also included the instruction I found on the web with the codes.
Starting with You Tube, API on their video gallery, here are the codes I found,
Assume you are to use the YouTube, XML code; What will you change here so it will work on your own www.domain.com?
<% Dim xml, xhr, ns, YouTubeID, TrimmedID, GetJpeg, GetJpeg2, GetJpeg3, thumbnailUrl, xmlList, nodeList, TrimmedThumbnailUrl Set xml = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument")
xml.async = False
xml.setProperty "ServerHTTPRequest", True
xml.Load("http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/Shuggy23/favorites?orderby=updated") If xml.parseError.errorCode <> 0 Then
    Response.Write xml.parseError.reason End If Set xmlList = xml.getElementsByTagName("entry") Set nodeList = xml.SelectNodes("//media:thumbnail") For Each xmlItem In xmlList
    YouTubeID = xmlItem.getElementsByTagName("id")(0).Text
    TrimmedID = Replace(YouTubeID, "http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/", "")
    For Each xmlItem2 In nodeList
        thumbnailUrl = xmlItem2.getAttribute("url")
        Response.Write thumbnailUrl & "<br />"
    Next     Next
%>
For the image gallery, the following are the codes I found with your experience do I need to use the entire codes or just some of them that I should use?
CODE #01Converting Database queries to XML
Using XML as data sources presumes the existence of XML. Often, it is easier to have the server create the XML from a database on the fly. Below are some scripts for common server models that do such a thing.
These are starting points. They will need to be customized for your particular scenario.
All these scripts will export the data from a database table with this structure:
ID: integer, primary key, autoincrement
AlbumName: text(255)
ImagePath: text(255)
ImageDescription: text(2000)
UploadDate: datetime
The output of the manual scripts will look like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<images>
     <image>
          <ID>1</ID>
          <album><![CDATA[ Family ]]></album>
          <path><![CDATA[ /family/us.jpg ]]></path>
          <description><![CDATA[ here goes the description ]]></description>
          <date><![CDATA[ 2006-11-20 10:20:00 ]]></date>
     </image>
     <image>
          <ID>2</ID>
          <album><![CDATA[ Work ]]></album>
          <path><![CDATA[ /work/coleagues.jpg ]]></path>
          <description><![CDATA[ here goes the description ]]></description>
          <date><![CDATA[ 2006-11-21 12:34:00 ]]></date>
     </image>
</images>
These are all wrapped in CDATA because it is will work with all data types. They can be removed if you know you don't want them.
Note: If using the column auto-generating versions, ensure that all the column types are text. Some databases have data type options like 'binary', that can't be converted to text. This will cause the script to fail.

OK, I understand - thanks for that.
I thought the whole process was supposed to be a bit more seemless? Having to upload/download documents and manually keep them in sync will leave a lot of room for errors.
It's kinda painful the way iOS doesn't have folders. It makes things incompatible with the Mac and means you can't group files from multiple apps into a single project - who organises their digital life by the apps they use?
I think I'll recommend they use their iPad only.
Thanks for that.

Using XML files created with PDF form in Excel

I have returned survey XML files created by a survey form using Lifecycle Designer. Have been unsuccessful in the importing of multiple XML files into Excel as a 2nd file just overlays the 1st file's data.
I have been reading a number of posts that most likely tells me that sending the PDF survey form out via e-mail and getting the returned XML file back via e-mail was not the best way to do it. Unfortunately it is what I have to deal with now, so two questions I have:
1. Is there a known method for importing all of these XML files into any Office program more easily than what I have been dealing with, and
2. What method would be best used if I have surveys to send out but have no web server or any other tool other than my local software on my PC for collecting and compiling the returned data?

Are you clicking the Send Email button while previewing the pdf form?
-> If yes, have you specified preview data on Form Properties panel?
-> If yes, does your form contain Table or repeatable subforms?
If all the above point are true, you will get multiple data in your xml.

Question about Using BufferedImage to create jpeg image

I was puzzled by a problem about using of class BufferedImage. I want to dynamicly create a jpeg image with bufferedimage, the step is as follows:
1.create a new bufferedImage object:
BufferedImage image = new BufferedImage((int)imageWidth, (int)imageHeight, BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_BINARY);
2.get the Graphics object from image:
     Graphics graphics = image.getGraphics();
3.then draw string and any other graphics with graphics
4.create jpeg image:
     try {
     FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("c://test.jpg");
     BufferedOutputStream bos = new BufferedOutputStream(fos);
     JPEGImageEncoder encoder = JPEGCodec.createJPEGEncoder(bos);
     encoder.encode(image);
     bos.close();
     } catch(Exception e) {
     System.out.println(e);
The problem is that :
if the graphic width and height is large enough(in my computer, the largest number is 4000*4000,of course it can be 6000*2000, but the total number is limited.), step 1 will be error: OutofMemory!
I'm worrying about it all day and night.Even though I try all my best,I still can't find what's wrong with it.
Can you help me--the helpless one?

Right. 4000x4000x3bytes ("true" color) is 64 mbytes. Your jpeg file might be smaller of course, but it's still going to be a behomoth. The best thing to try is increasing your java runtime size... I've never had to do this, but you can probably find it on this site somewhere

Created FK using sql but "CREATE SCRIPT" not same

I used this to create a FK relationship between a Parent and Child table.
    ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Child]
    ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_Child_Parent]
    FOREIGN KEY([Pid])
    REFERENCES [dbo].[Parent] ([pid])
    GO
When I scripted the relationship (under SSMS) this was returned....
     ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Child] WITH CHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_Child_Parent] FOREIGN KEY([Pid])
     REFERENCES [dbo].[Parent] ([pid])
     GO
     ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Child] CHECK CONSTRAINT [FK_Child_Parent]
     GO
Note the addition of "CHECK CONSTRAINT" and now there are two statements What does that do that my original statement didn't?
TIA,
edm2

It does nothing different. This is just another instance of SSMS explicitly scripting out the current state of the object, and explicitly specifying every possible option, even if the current value is the same as the default setting.
The first statement creates the constraint, checks the existing data and enables the constraint. The second statement enables the constraint.
The reason it uses two statements is probably because you cannot create a CHECK CONSTRAINT and disable it in a single statement. If you want to, you must use two statements. So SSMS appears to be coded to always use two statements: one to create
the constraint and one to set it's enabled/disabled state. IE because it sometimes requires two statements to create a CHECK CONSTRAINT in the desired state, SSMS always uses two statements, because it's simpler to code the script generator that way.

Using Automator to create script

What I'd like to do is use Automator to create a script that will open an image as soon as it is transferred to a specific folder. I'm trying to generate some extra income by doing a bit of photography. Since my photo gear is not wireless or bluetooth capable, I'm going to transfer the image from the camera to my MacBook via an Eye-Fi card. Once the image is transferred into the designated folder, I'd like the script to open the file in either Preview, Aperture, or Photoshop so I can see if I need to re-shoot the image. Is that possible? I'm just not sure how to do it in Automator. Thanks to all.
-- Dennis

Unless I misread your post this should be simple. The steps below are for the Snow Leopard version of Automator but will be similar for other versions. I had the test file open in Preview because I do not have Aperture installed but there should be a similar Automator action for it.
1. Create the folder that you want to drop the photos into and put it in a convenient place. I used the Desktop.
2. When the opening dialog appears choose Folder Action.
3. When the next Automator window appears notice the drop down menu that allows you to choose a folder. Click here and choose the folder you created earlier.
4. Find the Automator action "Open Images In Preview" and drop it into the window's right side as the only step/
5. Save your work.

Using XML to create folders with ACLs

My current create folder XML file looks as such:
<ObjectList>
<Folder>
<FolderPath> / </FolderPath>
<Name> StartHere </Name>
</Folder>
I wish to add an ACL to this folder. Which tags should I use to do this. Is there a document I can refer to which has a list of XML tags?

Using XML as a database ?

I would like to create some solutions that temporarily uses XML as a database until the real solution is implemented where there would be some connector technology feeding xml into my system ?
Has anyone here ever had experience using XML as a database ?

there are pages and pages of controversial blah-blah about what is the best storage... i would say: if you manipulate documents, use an XML DB, if you manipulate data (values, dates) better to use a RDBMS...

Developing ios/android game using flash and action script

I'm completely new to this, I have done a bit of research about using flash to create ios/android apps, but one thing really confuses me is,
should I create my game in flash lite or in air? I know swf format will not be supported, so i will leave that one out...
If using air format you need to install the air application in your iphone or andriod devices before the game can be played?
Is it possible not to use air for apps development using flash?
Since it is somehow non-user friendly as users were prompt to download and extra application before any game can be played...
thanks for the help in advance...

You want to use AIR not FlashLite - for iOS the end user doesn't need to install the AIR runtime, on Android they will however. But it's painless...
You don't need AIR for apps in Flash, but you do need to publish using AIR if going to iOS or Android.
Be sure to get AIR 2.7 and copy it over 2.6 - CS 5.5 installs with 2.6 which runs much slower on iOS, than does 2.7

Generate Create Script creates scripts that won't run: ORA-00922: missing..

I'm having trouble running a script that I created by using the Generate Create Script tool in Oracle Explorer. I created the following script by running the Generate Create Script on a table called, "ASPNET_APPLICATIONS":
CREATE TABLE "DEV"."ASPNET_APPLICATIONS" ("APPLICATIONID" NUMBER,"APPLICATIONNAME" VARCHAR2(256 BYTE),"DESCRIPTION" VARCHAR2(256 BYTE)) TABLESPACE "USERS" PCTFREE 10 INITRANS 1 MAXTRANS 255 STORAGE ( INITIAL 65536 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645 MINEXTENTS 1 )
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "DEV"."PK_APPS" ON "DEV"."ASPNET_APPLICATIONS" ("APPLICATIONID" ) TABLESPACE "USERS"
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "DEV"."IDX_APPS_APPNAME" ON "DEV"."ASPNET_APPLICATIONS" (LOWER(TRIM("APPLICATIONNAME")) ) TABLESPACE "USERS"
ALTER TABLE "DEV"."ASPNET_APPLICATIONS" ADD ( CONSTRAINT "SYS_C004598" CHECK ("APPLICATIONNAME" IS NOT NULL) ENABLE VALIDATE )
ALTER TABLE "DEV"."ASPNET_APPLICATIONS" ADD ( CONSTRAINT "SYS_C004597" CHECK ("APPLICATIONID" IS NOT NULL) ENABLE VALIDATE )
I then deleted the table in my Oracle 10g database and ran the above script to recreate the table. The result is that I get an error the following error, ORA-00922: missing or invalid option. Does anyone know how to resolve this?
Is anyone aware of any bugs in the Generate Create Script option of Oracle Explorer?

Okay, I think I found my problem.
I was trying to run the script created by Oracle Explorer directly from a Database project I added to my Solution in Visual Studio. Visual Studio is probably using some SQL Server specific tool when I select the Run or Run On option on the script.
When running the same script directly in the Oracle 10g Home Page (Home > SQL > SQL Scripts), I had no problem. Everything executes correctly.
Is anyone aware of another way to run Oracle scripts directly from Visual Studio? Do I have my project setup incorrectly? This is the first project I've used .NET and Oracle together, so if anyone has any suggestions, I'd really appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Mycole

A few questions about using an XML file to add text into a TextArea component set as html

I'm using AS2 in Flash CS3.
I have a TextArea component in the stage that's loading its text from an XML and I've been able to use the ul and li tags to create lists. However, when I try to include a nested list it just inserts a line break between the nested list and the main list rather than indent it further. Is there a solution for this issue?
Failing that, how would I be able to add non-breaking spaces into the XML so they will render inside the TextArea component? I've tried and   without success. I scoured the net for some help with this and found some information about modifying the font embedding xml file with a new entry for the non-breaking space and that didn't work either, so that leaves me somewhat stumped.

flash doesn't handle nested lists (as you now know). you can work-around that limitation using css and creating your own indent styles. css have a marginLeft property you can use.

Integration strategies - Questions about using IDOC XML?

Hello. First time poster here. I am looking for some information for a project for a client and I am hoping someone can give me a pointer to where to start.
I need to connect my clients SAP system to an XML based software package. I have heard about IDOC XML and I hope I can use this technology to do the following:
1. Extract PO's from SAP
2. Insert PO changes to SAP (Price, Delivery, Quantity, etc.)
3. Extract RFQ information from SAP
4. Insert vendor quotations for those RFQ's
Are there existing IDOC XML document types for these transactions?
Does SAP have a tool that generates the IDOC XML and makes the data available as a disk file?
Does SAP have a tool that can read an IDOC XML from a disk file and submit it for insertion into SAP?
Would I need to do any programming on the SAP side to accept the data into SAP or are there, for instance, specific IDOC XML documents for uploading changes to existing PO's?
Is there documentation avaialble that will answer these kinds of questions?
Thank you in advance

You can use XML port for IDOC xml output to file disk or XML-HTTP port to send and receive message through HTTP protocol.

Creating schemas using xml data

Hi
I have a situation where I need to create
database schemas dynamically using <xml> data.
Any help in this regard will be much appreciated.
Thanks
Radheep

I'm not sure how to write a Web Service, however data can be read from a flat file using XML Data > Load, however the flat file has to be formatted with appropriate XML tags, such as...
<data>
<variable name="Test">
<row><column>1</column><column>2</column></row>
<row><column>10</column></row>
</variable>
</data>
In addition, you have to write a scriptlet that resides on a web server, with which Xcelsius can communicate. Once your data is formatted, it is as simple as referencing the file location in the XML Data URL: field.
Web Service is a very popular solution, and probably better than XML Data in this case due to the large volume of data. If you do a forum search for "Web Service" you'll find many threads regarding its usage.
