Simple import of xml file to database

It has been a while since I coded in java. I know I could hand code a simple java app which imports an xml file into an oracle db but I was wanting to see if there is any easier way to do it with Jdeveloper, something which takes care of the grunt work for me. Note, I do not need jsp, etc. for the app just a simple plain java app. Is there any doc describing this?
Thanks,
Steve

Hmm...if you use a style sheet to transform the file into standard view object notation, you could import it into an appropriate VO using the method ViewObjectImpl.readFromXML(). My guess is that the standard notation won't be too hard to transform things into; use your favorite XML output solution to output the result of ViewObjectImpl.writeXML() (it's a Node) so you can see the pattern.

  • Is there a way to import large XML files into HANA efficiently are their any data services provided to do this?

    1. Is there a way to import large XML files into HANA efficiently?
    2. Will it process it node by node or the entire file at a time?
    3. Are there any data services provided to do this?
    This for a project use case i also have an requirement to process bulk XML files, suggest me to accomplish this task

    Hi Patrick,
         I am addressing the similar issue. "Getting data from huge XMLs into Hana."
    Using Odata services can we handle huge data (i.e create schema/load into Hana) On-the-fly ?
    In my scenario,
    I get a folder of different complex XML files which are to be loaded into Hana database.
    Then I gotta transform & cleanse the data.
    Can I use oData services to transform and cleanse the data ?
    If so, how can I create oData services dynamically ?
    Any help is highly appreciated.
    Thank you.

  • What XML encoding do I use to get APEX to import an XML file?

    Environment:
    APEX 3.1.1.00.09 on AIX 5.3
    SQL Developer 1.5.5 on Windows XP Pro SP3
    Oracle 10.2.0.2 EE on AIX 5.3
    Trying to import an XML file generated from SQL Developer into a table using APEX Import utility.
    I'm getting the error: ORA-19200: Invalid column specification
    All I've done is exported the EMP table from SQL Developer (v. 1.5.5) into an XML file and then tried to load into an empty EMP table in the database (10.2.0.2) using APEX and the Data Load Utility.
    I've tried creating the XML file using different encodings out of SQL Developer but so far an still getting the above error.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    -gary

    Hi Scott
    First of all I was successful in exporting and re-importing the EMP table to and from APEX.
    When I exported the EMP table in XML format using SQL Developer, the resulting XML looked very different from the same data exported from APEX. My APEX exported XML looked just like yours. Here are the first 3 rows of the XML file exported from SQL Developer. I'm NOT an XML person so I can't judge whether or not this is valid XML but I can tell you that it doesn't import into an empty EMP table through APEX. I can control the encoding type in SQL Developer and have tried several different flavors.
    <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>

  • Using XML file as Database

    Hi all,
    Can we use an XML file as Database? Currently I'm using Microsoft Sql Server 2000 as the beckend. Now I'm creating a small project which does not require much functionality of Sql Server. I want it to run without help of any others software installation.
    I need only insertion and extraction in a simple manner i.e. no much joins or unions and other implications.
    Thanks

    sure, just define the format, write the engine, write the drivers, etc. etc.
    Far easier to use some lightweight embedded database engine though (but maybe not as much fun).Thanks for reply.
    Pls post link to the page or resource where I can read about that.
    Also, if you have link to the critical comments on this technique, pls post them also.

  • Can't import an xml file

    Hi,
    I am using Captivate 5.5 on Windows. I have an .swf file which needs to have an xml file with it in order for it to behave the way in which it was intended. The developer has said that the two files need to be included in the same folder.
    I have no problem importing the swf file however I can't import the xml file which is called flashParams.xml. I have been editing the xml file in windows notepad and it is working perfectly outside Captivate. However when i try to import the xml, I get the message 'Cannot import XML'. I have been using File/Import/from xml to get the file loaded but no luck. I have also tried dragging it into the library but no luck here either.
    Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong and how they would approach what surely must be a very simple task.
    Thanks,
    Nick

    Hi Rod,
    Thanks for the reply.
    I think what I could do is to launch the swf by clicking on a link in the Captivate session to an external url (it will be hosted on Moodle). The one problem I have is that when I do this in Captivate, the slide refuses to pause and moves onto the next slide. What I would like is for the user to be able to click on the link for the url and for the slide to pause until the user clicks on a next button to go to the next slide.

  • Import Large XML File to Table

    I have a large (819MB) XML file I'm trying to import into a table in the format:
    <ROW_SET>
    <ROW>
    <column_name>value</column_name>
    </ROW>
    <ROW>
    <column_name>value</column_name>
    </ROW>
    </ROW_SET>
    I've tried importing it with xmlsequence(...).extract(...) and ran into the number of nodes exceed maximum error.
    I've tried importing it with XMLTable(... passing XMLTYPE(bfilename('DIR_OBJ','large_819mb_file.xml'), nls_charset_id('UTF8'))) and I gave up after it ran for 15+ hours ( COLLECTION ITERATOR PICKLER FETCH issue ).
    I've tried importing it with:
    insCtx := DBMS_XMLStore.newContext('schemaname.tablename');
    DBMS_XMLStore.clearUpdateColumnList(insCtx);
    DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdateColumn(insCtx,'column1name');
    DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdateColumn(insCtx,'columnNname');
    ROWS := DBMS_XMLStore.insertXML(insCtx, XMLTYPE(bfilename('DIR_OBJ','large_819mb_file.xml'), nls_charset_id('UTF8')));
    and ran into ORA-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 1032 bytes (qmxlu subheap,qmemNextBuf:alloc).
    All I need to do is read the XML file and move the data into a matching table in a reasonable time. Once I have the data in the database, I no longer need the XML file.
    What would be the best way to import large XML files?
    Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
    PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
    "CORE     11.2.0.1.0     Production"
    TNS for Linux: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production

    This (rough) approach should work for you.
    CREATE TABLE HOLDS_XML
            (xml_col XMLTYPE)
          XMLTYPE xml_col STORE AS SECUREFILE BINARY XML;
    INSERT INTO HOLDS_XML
    VALUES (xmltype(bfilename('DIR_OBJ','large_819mb_file.xml'), nls_charset_id('UTF8')))
    -- Should be using AL32UTF8 for DB character set with XML
    SELECT ...
      FROM HOLD_XML HX
           XMLTable(...
              PASSING HX.xml_col ...)How it differs from your approach.
    By using the HOLDS_XML table with SECUREFILE BINARY XML storage (which became the default in 11.2.0.2) we are providing a place for Oracle to store a parsed version of the XML. This allows the XML to be stored on disk instead of in memory. Oracle can then access the needed pieces of XML from disk by streaming them instead of holding the whole XML in memory and parsing it repeatedly to find the information needed. That is what COLLECTION ITERATOR PICKLER FETCH means. A lot of memory work. You can search on that term to learn more about it if needed.
    The XMTable approach then simply reads this XML from disk and should be able to parse the XML with no issue. You have the option of adding indexes to the XML, but since you are simply reading it all one time and tossing it, there is no advantage to indexes (most likely)

    Use XSU to store in multiple tables.
    "XSU can only store data in a single table. You can store XML across tables, however, by using the Oracle XSLT processor to transform a document into multiple documents and inserting them separately. You can also define views over multiple tables and perform insertions into the views. If a view is non-updatable (because of complex joins), then you can use INSTEAD OF triggers over the views to perform the inserts."

    After spending 2+ hrs with Hyperion Support nothing got resolved.. Just to give more background on this problem, we originally reconfigured all Hyperion components to use different SQL server, that is when the problem started happening as soon as we got to Planning Instance Configuration. Could this be the situations when old server name is still somewhere in the system?.. Could this be Shared Services problem.

  • "Error retrieving xml file from database"

    Hello All,
    I have installed and configured planning with Shared services. While I try to create an instance in Configuration Utility by entering the Instance Name, Host Name, Port (8300) and Click "Next", I get this error -
    *"System failure:Error retrieving xml file from database".*
    My RDBMS is - SQL Server 2005

    I am unable to work on planning for few months due to this error.. I would sincerely appreciate if someone can provide me a solution for this..
    Thanks much,
    Varma.

    Hi,
    Ive seen this before.
    If this is a new environment could you create a blank database and configure it as your System database? Then try again and you should be fine.
    I think you may have some invalid entries in your sys database.

  • Adobe not allowing import of XML file captured from Media Express through Black Magic capture card

    I have been going crazy trying to find a way to import the XML files to fix the digitized look Adobe capture gave my footage. Someone help me
    These are not XML from Final Cut. They are files saved from Media Express, a Black magic design program used for Capturing.
    THANK YOU.
    Please email me if you know how to fix this
    [email protected]
    THANKS AGAIN!

    Wouldn't it be more appropriate to open the actual media files captured with the program?
