UIX with XSQL as XML data provider and event handler

Hello ,
I would like to bind XML data to messageinput elements of a form element
as values to be presented before entering (data provider)
as well as input values to be persisted after completing the form (event handler).
My impression (as a newbee) is that only for BC4J integration there is a bidirectional binding with view objects.
Can i use 'include' to bind a static xml file as data source for output?
How can i use XSQL to be bound as data for input as well as for output of a form?
A last question concerning a page with 3 tabs:
do i need 3 different pages and requests to get the data of the 3 tabs
or is it possible to get the whole data of the page in one request
and distribute it over the 3 tabs.
Any help appreciated
Thanks

You could do this, but we don't provide any tools to make this easy.
You'd have to write an implement of the DataObject interface
that gives your UI access to the XML document, and write custom
event handlers to perform the "set" side of things. The Data Binding
and UIX Controller chapters of the UIX developer's guide will give you
a high-level view of how to accomplish this, but nothing specifically
about reading or writing to XML documents.

Hi to all... What is a XML data provider,stored Procedure, personal data

Hi to all... What is a XML data provider,stored Procedure, personal data providers in deski. when we use these data provider in desk top intelligence.. and use of it.
Please give detail description of the above...
Thanks for reply..........

Hi,
We can create Desktop Intelligence reports using XML Data Provider, Personal Data Files and Stored Procedure.
Following is some detailed information about these three.
Xml data provider:
Xml data provider is used for the integration of external data sources stored in XML format.
This is similar to HTML.
Stored Procedure:
A stored procedure is a set of SQL commands that has been compiled and stored on the database server.
Once the stored procedure has been "stored", client applications can execute the stored procedure over and over again without sending it to the database server again and without compiling it again.
Stored procedures improve performance by reducing network traffic and CPU load.
Personal data files:
u2022     *.prn files
     A PRN file is a special type of file which contains instructions for a printer, it tells the printer what to print on the page and where as well as which paper tray to use, what the paper size is and a number of other controls.
u2022     *.asc files
      Between the values of a row any number of carriage returns or blanks are allowed. In any case it is strongly recommended that the data table be stored in such a way that it can be read and edited easily.
       The values may be stored in any format (integer, floating point, exponential notation) and they must be separated at least by one blank. The class information must be of integer type, the row identifiers are interpreted as strings. The lines can have any length and must not contain any comment.
u2022     *.csv files
A CSV file is a specially formatted plain text file which stores spreadsheet or basic database-style information in a very simple format, with one record on each line, and each field within that record separated by a comma.

ComboBox XML Data Provider

Hello all,
I'm having trouble creating an XML data provider to use for a
ComboBox. Below is what I've done:
XML data I get from Rails server:
<states>
<state name="Arizona" id="1" />
</states>
CDATA:
import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
[Bindable] private var stateData:ArrayCollection;
private function getStates(event:ResultEvent):void {
stateData = (event.result as XML).states.state;
state.dataProvider = stateData;
state.labelField = "name";
state.data = "id";
<mx:ComboBox id="state" />
This compiles, but when I run it, I don't get anything in the
ComboBox. I know I'm getting data from the server, because I can
set the data provider for the ComboBox to be event.result and I see
all the resulting XML in the ComboBox.
Please help!!! What am I doing wrong here?!
Thanks in advance! -- BTR

Hey Vygo,
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it out and let you know
how it goes. However, I was worried about the attributes so I tried
it using regular elements as well, but to no avail. Anyway, I'll
get back to you once I have a chance to try out your suggestion.
Thanks again! -- BTR

Difference between Data Provider and extractor.

Hi
Can someone help me in understanding difference between data providers and data extractor.
I have gone through some documents but not able to get the exact difference between them.
What is the exact role of data provider and extractor with respect to sap solution manager.
Is data provider== Data extractor?
Thanks,
Vijay

Hello Vijaya,
From my perspective the Data Providers are responsible for collecting metric values from the monitored objects on the managed sources systems and sending these to the Solution Manager Monitoring and Alerting Infrastrucure.
Data extractors on the other hand are the reporting objects which are defined on the BW part of Solution Manager and can be enabled by configuring some monitoring scenario's. Once these data extractors are enabled, they will use the data from the "Data Providers" (see above) to setup nice BW reportings on the Solution Manager monitoring dashboards.
I hope this answer helps you.

XML Data Sets and IE8

I have an issue with Spry XML Data sets that is driving me nuts.
The setup is quite straightforward. I have a PHP script which submits a SOAP request, the result of which is pure XML. I echo this XML out as the result of the script.
I have another page on which is one or more Spry XML Data Sets. These data sets use the previous script as the source. I know this works OK because when i 'Get Schema' in the XML dataset dialog in Dreamweaver, the schema is properly displayed. This page also has a Spry Table on it, which uses the dataset as the source. There is nothing else on the page at all.
Now, when I preview this page in Firefox, Chrome, Opera or Safari, it displays fine. However, when I preview it in IE, the table briefly flashes up then disappears. A quick look at the source of the page shows the HTML all laid out very licely, but the Spry fields still show with their placeholders (e.g. {Balance}) instead of the actual value. Im left with a totally blank page in IE.
I have tried running in compatibility mode with no effect. I found a posting on Experts Exchange (yuk!) where someone else was having the problem but this turned out to bedue to badly formed XML. I have run my XML though XMLSpy and several online validators and it checks out every time.
Any ideas? I am slowly losing the will to live....
Si

Hi,
I'm trying to debug the same problem...I think.The pages work in firefox on PC & MAC but stop with the {data_name} in IE on both PC & MAC.
I'm using Dreamweaver CS3 with ADDT. I've read the posts about adding the content-type to my file that ADDT created for me just before the XMLExport, so I've added that to the get_menu_1_info.php file (see lines 42-46). I've peeked into the XMLExport.class.php file to see that the Execute function is supposedly already sending the header info (see line 223). But I'm not getting the data into IE.
Any help would be appreciated!
here's where you can see the page:
https://hbblearning.org/Takv3uMYsX7cVK5eRo/newcomer_info.html
here's where I generate the xml file to be consumed:
https://www.hbblearning.org/get/get_menu_1_info.php
I've attached the files for you to see.

XML data connection and XML submit button

Hi Guys,
another one that 'should' be straight forward. I have an xml data connection that is used ot pull in event details (name, location, cost etc) that allows you to select various events, then fill in your contact details and then submit the form. I need to have the form submit with the data that the user entered into the form as well as their selection of event. When I set up the email submit button, the XML file attached to the email is actually the XML file that the form pulls the event details from not the data that the user has entered into the form. Again I reckon this one should be straight forwad to fix, seems like a fairly normal way to operate, but I just cant find a solution. please help

>We are letting user know that u have thrown email to someone and we also let user know how is going to contact them.
This is good, but you cannot stop the email from opening and the user
needing to send it. This is, as I said, fundamental to security and
cannot be switched off.
>I tried using HTTP request but it still opening email option to send mail.
This suggests you did not do it right, because when you use http, no
mail is sent locally. Can you describe what you do?
>
>I want to do the way we do in the html page using javascript to set action event at click event and send data to specified email id.
HTML cannot silently send an email either.
Perhaps you could outline what sort of HTML JavaScript you use, so
that we can suggest an equivalent if there is one.

XML Data Provider - Information

Hi!
I am using the web item "Data Provider - Information" in the WAD to get a query result in XML. When i choose view source in the explorer i can see the XML generated.
My problem is that this generated XML generates one "XML set" for the characteristics in the query and one "XML set" for the key figures in the query.
By this i mean that when i copy the xml from the "view source" file and save it as its own XML file i have to save it as one file for the Key Figures and one file for the Characteristics.
Like this(Characteristic OMaterial and KeyFiure NetValue):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<item>
<material>12345</material>
</item>
and
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<item>
<net_value>100</net_value>
</item>
I would like the web item to generate a XML file that includes both the KeyFigures and the Characteristics.
Like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<item>
<material>12345</material>
<net_value>100</net_value>
</item>
Do any of you know if/how this is possible?
Thanks,
Charlotte

Hey, sounds like you're getting pretty close. The next thing is integrating the XSLT transform into a web template. I'm actually working on a paper on this that I'll put out at some point. Anywho, here's a sample template that does the XSLT transform on load of the page... The most important thing is that the web template has property "STATELESS=X" so that any navigation you do reruns the transform. This way, you can still navigate and do BW type activities while still transforming the result set. This is very powerful and you'll be able to change or do anything using XSLT transforms. I'm even working on creating javascript functions that run these transforms to do left outer joins and inner joins based on 2 XML result sets. This way, even if data isn't modeled together, it can be presented together. I'm working through the kinks of some of these transforms. Also, I'm working to integrate stylesheet support into my transform as well. Just substitute your transform into the sample template below and it'll render an html table for the XML Query Result Set.

Flash xml data loading and unloading specs

hi i am trying to get specification information that i cannot
find anywhere else.
i am working a large flash project
and i would like to load xml data into the same swf
object/movieclip repeatedly.
as i do not want the previously loaded items to unload i need
to know if doing this will unload the items from the swf or just
keep them in the library so they can be reposted without reloading.
i cannot find any supporting documenation either way that
tells me that if i load new content into a clip (i am aware
levels overwrite) if it will or will not unload this content.
thanks in advance.
mk

this is awful for me -- i cant even get the clip to duplicate
-- and i thought this would be the simplest solution to keeping
everything cached for one page before and one page after current in
the project.
i have used a simpler clip to test the code and see if i am
insane.
duplicateMovieClip(_root.circle, "prv", 5);
prv._x = 300;
prv._y = 300;
prv._visible = true;
prv.startDrag();
this ALWAYS works when i use the _root.circle file of a green
simple circle
BUT
when i change it to my main movie clip (which is loaded AND
On screen -- it just doesnt duplicate at all!) -- i've even
triggered it to go play frame 2 JUST IN CASE
I've even set visibility to true JUST IN CASE
ie all i do is change _root.circle to _root.cur
and .... nada.
AND _root.cur IS DEFINITELY on the screen and all xml
components have been loaded into it. (it is a slide with a dynamic
picture and dynamic type and it 100% works)
has anyone had this insanity happen before?
is this an error where flash cannot attach movie or duplicate
a clip that has dynamic contents???

Spry XML data set and dynamic post variables

Hi,
I am trying to create an XML data set that has dynamic post
variables.
Everytime something is pressed on the page a variable changes
and I then want to reload the XML data set using the new variable.
I know I can just pull in an XML with all possible variables
and filter client side but this would make it way too large.
Does anyone know what I may need to do.
I tried this:
var myVar = 0;
var dss = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet (
'../../cgi-bin/server_details.pl' , 'top' , { method: 'POST' ,
postData: sid=ajaja21&ip=127.0.0.1&cid=' . myVar ,
subPaths: [ "auth" , "plugins" , "plugins/plugin" ] , keepSorted:
"true", sortOnLoad: "plugins/plugin/order", sortOrderOnLoad:
"descending", useCache: false, loadInterval: 10000 } );
onclick="myVar=1";
But the script doesn't understand the post variables sent (it
does when I remove the . myVar part and put in a static value). I
think it isn't sending that dynamic variable with the post
variables.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks

Well I had it working when I stripped back everything and
just had the dss data set and a single onclick function, but now
that I put it back together it hash foobared again.
Here are the relevant bits of code that I've changed.
The function to change server id:
//function to run when changing the server id
function changeServer ( sid ) {
//set the url to use the current server id
dss.setURL = ( '../../cgi-bin/server_details.pl' , { method:
'POST' , postData:
'sid=7gv1m3vjvagfl7h7qeefb8iodj8evhmb&ip=127.0.0.1&cid='+sid
//force a reload of the server data
dss.loadData();
The inital load of the data set
var dss = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet (
'../../cgi-bin/server_details.pl' , 'yams' , { method: 'POST' ,
postData:
'sid=7gv1m3vjvagfl7h7qeefb8iodj8evhmb&ip=127.0.0.1&cid=0' ,
subPaths: [ "auth" , "plugins" , "plugins/plugin" ] , keepSorted:
"true", sortOnLoad: "plugins/plugin/order", sortOrderOnLoad:
"descending", useCache: false, loadInterval: 10000 } );
And the part that changes the server id
<td align="left" style="cursor:default; width:174px;"
onclick="changeServer({dsv::servers/server/@id})">{dsv::servers/server/name}</td>
I checked that the function is receiving the correct server
id and I even tried hard coding the cid variable to 2 in the change
function but it still wasn't changing on the server side.
Any ideas?
Thanks

XML data (image and accompanying filename)?

Hi,
I just recently viewed some video tuts and read some Flex material so I'm a little more comfortable with all of its syntaxes and such.
However one thing that eludes me when I tried to do this on my own was calling an XML file in mxml and having Flash Builder display the filename and the appropriate image (a jpg file).
I have an XML file that I automatically created using a shell command which is a shortened version of a directory listing of the jpg files on my hard drive in a specific folder. I manually cut out everything but the first entry so that I could save time since that folder has lots of jpgs.
Now, what am I doing wrong that I can't get the XML data to display both the jpg as a visual image object and the filename pulled from one of the attributes in the XML file?
I'm not posting any code yet in hopes that I can get a direct answer with a code example. Some of the code seems rather long for me to post here before getting some insight.
Thanks in advance,
markerline
P.S. This first example is for a web application, not an Adobe AIR runtime.

Hi Derrick,
In your case, please refer to the following method to troubleshooting this problem:
We can use Fiddler2 to monitor the HTTP post, and check whether the parameter is being sent. The Fiddler tool can helps us debug web applications by capturing network traffic between the Internet and test computers. If the parameter is being sent, please
debug the web service to ensure the method has values return.

XML Data Server and model help

All,
I have the following files
1) travel.dtd
2) travel.xml.
I've set up a XML data server with JDBC driver com.sunopsis.jdbc.driver.xml.SnpsXmlDriver and URL = jdbc:snps:xml?d=c:/XML/travel.dtd. I have created a model in designer and have successfully reversed the datastores generated from the dtd.
The travel.xml file has data populated within it, but when I right click on the datastores, there is nothing displayed. This makes sense because the xml server is configured to point at the .dtd. Do I need to change my topology connection to connect to the xml document as opposed to the dtd. Can someone tell me what i'm missing?
thanks for your help.

Since its not displaying anything as you are saying you just change the property to "f" and check.
Example
jdbc:snps:xml?f=/xml/myxml.xml&d=/xml/myxcd.xsd&s=MYSCHEMANAME
("s=MYSCHEMANAME": This schema will be selected when creating the physical schema under the XML data server.)
Hope it helps.
Thanks

XML data extraction and new row display

I have a table named, SAPDATABROWSER, which has multiple columns and rows. A column named SAPTEXT (DataType: CLOB) consist of xml data. Each XML data is different in terms of number of nodes, but has the same following structure:
<SAP_BAPI_PROP>
<SelectedProperty>
<Structure>
<Field></Field>
<Length></Length>
<FieldValue></FieldValue>
<Type></Type>
<Priority></Priority>
</Structure>
</SelectedProperty>
</SAP_BAPI_PROP>
So now what I would like to do is, to extract the values: Field, FieldValue and Length from every row (total 72) and display the result as following,
Field FieldValue Length
XXXX YYYY ZZZZ
PPPP QQQQ RRRR
AAAA BBBB CCCC
MMMM NNNN OOOO
Again, each row (total 72) has multiple nodes inside XML data, i.e there are multiple Field,Length and FieldType Nodes and no two XML row/data are similar!
I am using the following code:
SELECT
EXTRACT (xmltype (saptext), '/SAP_BAPI_PROP/SelectedProperty/Structure/Field/text()'),
EXTRACT (xmltype (saptext), '/SAP_BAPI_PROP/SelectedProperty/Structure/Length/text()' ),
EXTRACT (xmltype (saptext), '/SAP_BAPI_PROP/SelectedProperty/Structure/FieldValue/text()' )
FROM sapdatabrowser ;
The above code generate result as following:
/SAP_BAPI_PROP/..../Field/text() /SAP_BAPI_PROP/..../Length/text() /SAP_BAPI_PROP/..../FieldValue/text()
1. XXXXPPPPAAAA YYYYQQQQBBBB ZZZZRRRRCCCC
2. MMMM NNNN OOOO
Any suggestions?! Thank you very much. :)

Report with XLS as a data provider

Hi
I have a report which has a XLS spreadsheet as a data provider. Whenever I open the report or refresh the data, the data is displayed very slowly, line by line. I have to wait a few minutes while this happens, until all the data has completed being displayed, then I can continue doing what I am doing in deski. Why is this happening and is there anything I can do to stop this?
Thanks.
