Tool to print xslt transformation diagram?

Hi,
You can print the BPEL diagram in JDeveloper but not the transformation diagram. This would be very useful for verifying the transformations and documentation. Anybody know of a tool that can do it?
Regards Pete

Hi Marc,
It's a huge transformations. A couple of 100 fields and good part of them is not one to one mapping but needs transformation. So it can not fit on one screen.

BI Admin Tool and XSLT transformation for XML data source - How it works ?

Hello,
There is a possibility to import data from XML data source using BI Admin Tool.
In the import window we can point XSLT file. What is the purpose of that XSLT field?
Why I am asking ?
I thought it is smth like XSLT processor, but simply it doesnt work.
What I did:
- I pointed XML data source file
- I pointed XSLT transformation file
- Click OK, and still get the message that the XML file structure is not supported
After that I transformed that XML file with some desktop XSLT processor using the same XSLT file, and I tried to connect that file directly using BI Admin tool.Then it works. So it means that the transformation is ok.
So basically one question comes to my mind in that situation:
What is the purpose of XSLT field in BI Admin Tool when it comes to XML data source ?
(it doesnt look like XSLT processor)
Greetings

Hi Mariano
Why you need to use XSLT for transforming XML file into ABAP table
Code is a part of some ABAP report. Looks like it is reading a file from file system and updating table after transformation
If you have requirement like you need to read XML file and then insert the data into a SAP table
You can use
File to RFC
File to Proxy scenario using SAP PI.
Please provide more inputs on requirement to help
Thanks

Tags not printed when outputting XML after XSLT transformation

Hi!
I want my to perform an XSLT transformation on requests to my web service.
This is the style of a typical request:
<app:aRequest xmlns:app="http://myNamespace">
<app:firstTag>value1</app:firstTag>
<app:secondTag>value2</app:secondTag>
<app:thirdTag>value3</app:thirdTag>
</app:aRequest>I want to transform it into something like this:
<app:aRequest xmlns:app="http://myNamespace">
<app:firstTag>A hard coded, completely different value!</app:firstTag>
<app:secondTag>value2</app:secondTag>
<app:thirdTag>value3</app:thirdTag>
</app:aRequest>To do that, I use the following XSLT:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
                xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
                xmlns:app="http://myNamespace">
<xsl:template match="/">
<app:aRequest>
<app:firstTag>A hard coded, completely different value!</app:firstTag>
<app:secondTag><xsl:value-of select="app:aRequest/app:secondTag" /></app:secondTag>
<app:thirdTag><xsl:value-of select="app:aRequest/app:thirdTag" /></app:thirdTag>
</app:aRequest>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>And I use the following code to execute the transformation:
public Object unmarshal(Source source) throws XmlMappingException, IOException {
TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
    // Does this factory support SAX features?
    if(factory.getFeature(SAXSource.FEATURE)) {
      SAXTransformerFactory saxTransformerFactory = (SAXTransformerFactory)factory;
    // Read xslt file.
    InputStream inputStream = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/META-INF/xsltTransformation.xsl");
    if(inputStream == null) {
      throw new RuntimeException("No XSLT transformation file present at " + location);
    Templates xsltOutputTemplate = saxTransformerFactory.newTemplates(new StreamSource(inputStream));
    Transformer transformer = xsltTemplate.newTransformer();
    // Perform transformation.
    StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();
    StreamResult result = new StreamResult(stringWriter);
    transformer.transform(source, result);
    // Print result.
    String xmlString = stringWriter.toString();
    System.out.println(xmlString);
    // Proceed with unmarshalling.
    StringReader stringReader = new StringReader(xmlString);
    StreamSource transformedSource = new StreamSource(stringReader);
    return oxMapper.getUnmarshaller().unmarshal(transformedSource);
}However, the System.out.println(xmlString); produces the following result:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
value1
value2
value3The tags are not printed and the hard coded value is not present.
What am I doing wrong? Please help!

Following up on what the good Dr said,
Are you sure that you are using the stylesheet that you think you are?
I tried your stylesheet and input and got more or less what you wanted and not what you actually got.
Note that I did not use your code.

Issue with xslt transform

I'm having a problem with xslt transformations.
I'm sending a DOMDocument to be transformed into a varchar2. The transformation was into html and I was then printing the returning varchar2 to a web page, along the lines of...
htp.prn(Xslt.transform(domdoc, xslt.stylesheet( l_stylesheet_bfile)));
I subsequently broke the varchar2 32k limit so I started playing with transforming into a dom instead of a varchar, then writing the dom to a clob and the printing the clob to the web page in 32k chunks.
I noticed this produced different results than the first method. Now I'm assuming that this is not because xslt is doing the transformations differently but because it's trying to put my html into a well-formed DOMdocument. I have noticed, though, that things like & #160; seemed to have disappeared.
Just wondering if I'm doing something wrong, and also any reason why the transform functionality doesn't have an output option of CLOB?
Thanks
Jason

What is the DB version?

How to run the ASDoc XSLT transformation manually?

Hello there,
I am combining the XML (toplevel.xml and toplevel_classes.xml) output of several actionscript projects into
a one central XML file. I do this by first running the asdoc tool on the separate projects with the keep-xml and
skip-xsl switches set to true. I then run my own XSLT script that combines the toplevel XML files and
toplevel_classes XML files into two main files.
After that I'd like to run the actual HTML generation, as far as I know its not possible to run asdoc with certain
switches that tell it to skip the XML generation and just perform the XSLT transform immediately for a specified
toplevel.xml and toplevel_classes.xml.
Therefore I guess I have to run the XSLT tranforms from the 'templates' directory myself.
So, thus my question is, what is the exact order of XSLT transforms and for which files?
i.e. do I call class-list.xsl with toplevel_classes.xml, etc?
thanx a lot in advance,
Roland

Hey there,
yes, I understood what you meant, but even just the physical copying of the files will take a fair amount of time that I prefer to avoid
I'm getting down with ANT as we speak Its a load of trial and error, but I'll report back if I have things working.
Cheers,
Roland

Where is XSLT Transformation located

I am trying to do an XSLT Transformation, but I have no idea where to look for this - the only area with a note about where to find this tool is to select Foundation - XSLT Transformation, but I don't have that option - I found File, New, Process, Category = Foundation, but I never find any reference to XSLT Transformation. Any suggestions would be helpful.

XSLT Transformation is a service under the category of Foundation. You can drag it from the Services panel onto your process OR drag on an Activity and type XSLT in the find field. Choose the XSLT-Transformation from the Foundation category

Hi Priya,
you can try with the below,
1) Create a local ITAB with the structure of the XML,
TYPES: BEGIN OF t_data,
        projectid           TYPE char30,
        stage               TYPE char30,
        country             TYPE char30,
        region              TYPE char30,
        teamleader          TYPE char30,
        teamleaderfirstname TYPE char30,
        teamleaderlastname TYPE char30,
        actiontype          TYPE char30,
       END OF t_data.
2) Create an XSLT prog in "STRANS" with the below code,
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:sap="http://www.sap.com/sapxsl" version="1.0">
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<asx:abap xmlns:asx="http://www.sap.com/abapxml" version="1.0">
<asx:values>
<L_DATA>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//projectInfo"/>
</L_DATA>
</asx:values>
</asx:abap>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="projectInfo">
<conceptRevDecisionXml>
<PROJECTID>
<xsl:value-of select="projectId"/>
</PROJECTID>
<STAGE>
<xsl:value-of select="stage"/>
</STAGE>
<COUNTRY>
<xsl:value-of select="country"/>
</COUNTRY>
<REGION>
<xsl:value-of select="region"/>
</REGION>
<TEAMLEADER>
<xsl:value-of select="teamleader"/>
</TEAMLEADER>
<TEAMLEADERFIRSTNAME>
<xsl:value-of select="teamleaderfirstname"/>
</TEAMLEADERFIRSTNAME>
<TEAMLEADERLASTNAME>
<xsl:value-of select="teamleaderlastname"/>
</TEAMLEADERLASTNAME>
<ACTIONTYPE>
<xsl:value-of select="actionType"/>
</ACTIONTYPE>
</conceptRevDecisionXml>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
3) Call the transformation as shown below,
CALL TRANSFORMATION zxslt_project ---> "Name of the XSLT prog created above
SOURCE XML l_xml_str                           ---> Source XML string
RESULT l_data = l_data.                          ---> ITAB as in step 1 above

Error when applying a XSLT transformation: No valid XSLT pro

Dear All,
I am getting following error when opening the "General Supplier Data" from Pre-Select Supplier.
Error Message: "Error message: Error when applying a XSLT transformation: No valid XSLT program supplied"
I have already read the related threads on SDN and checked the SAP Note 883896 and others. Even tried running the program UXS_DEL_NAVIGATION_NODE and UXS_ADD_MISSING_XSLT_NAME. But not able to solve the issue.
Kindly Help.

Hi Masa,
Thanks for reply. I have checked this note. As note suggests, S_DEVELOP auth object is assigned to the user. and it has value *.
Do I need to check anything else?

UTF-8 encoding in XSLT transformation

Hello,
I have a problem with a transformation of an ABAP structure into XML. I use the XSLT transformation for this.
My XSLT starts like this:
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<asx:abap xmlns:asx="http://www.sap.com/abapxml" version="1.0">
    <asx:values>
I tried many settings I could find posted on the internet, but I did not find one that would allow encoding to UTF-8.
It always encodes to iso-8859-1 which my interface partner cannot read.
Does anyone know a way to force encoding to UTF-8?
Adding a command like <xsl:output encoding="utf-8"/> did not help.
Thanks a lot!
       J. Euler

Hello!
I think I just solved the problem taking a different approach.
In a note here on SDN, a guy from SAP wrote, that the SAP XSLT processor is not able to code anything but the system's default to a string, BUT that it is able to code it to an xstring.
All I did now is add the tag
<xsl:output encoding="utf-8" indent="yes" method="xml"/>
to my xslt program and change the coding in the program accordingly.
The program code is now:
DATA: tempxstring TYPE xstring,
        temp_length TYPE i,
        conv      TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_in_ce.
CLEAR tempxstring.
TRY.
      CALL TRANSFORMATION
          zxxje_tst_xslt
        SOURCE omsregdatawebservice = wa_data
        RESULT XML tempxstring.
    CATCH cx_sy_conversion_base64.
    CATCH cx_sy_conv_illegal_date_time.
ENDTRY.
IF tempxstring IS NOT INITIAL.
    CLEAR: conv, temp_length, string_xml_result.
    conv = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create( input = tempxstring ).
    conv->read( IMPORTING data = string_xml_result len = temp_length ).
ENDIF.
Thanks anyways for all your help!

ABAP XSLT transformation - XML to deep structure/nested standard table

XSLT transformation in XML to ABAP: special characters issue

I use XSLT transformation:

If I use the above example without &amp; everything works fine, but the original XML fails with exception CX_XSLT_DESERIALIZATION_ERROR and message "Error during deserialization". Googling around did not give an answer.
Any words of wisdom?

XSLT Transformation problem

Hi,
hope anybody can help.
I try to transform a object to another object via XSLT transformation.
Here is my coding :
DATA: wa_transformation TYPE y0dpl_structures.
DATA: obj_import TYPE abap_trans_srcbind_tab,
        wa_import TYPE abap_trans_srcbind.
DATA: obj_export TYPE abap_trans_resbind_tab,
        wa_export TYPE abap_trans_resbind.
DATA: obj_data TYPE REF TO data.
* Get transformation data
SELECT SINGLE *
INTO wa_transformation
FROM y0dpl_structures
WHERE filetype = i_file_type.
* Create table with internal structure
CREATE DATA e_data TYPE (wa_transformation-structure_name).
wa_import-name = 'IMPORT'.
GET REFERENCE OF i_data INTO wa_import-value.
APPEND wa_import TO obj_import.
* Call transformation
CALL TRANSFORMATION (wa_transformation-transformation)
SOURCE (obj_import)
RESULT (obj_export).
i_data is a import parameter from type "ref to data".
My problem is, that "Call transformation" makes a shortdump when calling them.

Hi Mariano
Why you need to use XSLT for transforming XML file into ABAP table
Code is a part of some ABAP report. Looks like it is reading a file from file system and updating table after transformation
If you have requirement like you need to read XML file and then insert the data into a SAP table
You can use
File to RFC
File to Proxy scenario using SAP PI.
Please provide more inputs on requirement to help
Thanks
