Using LoadVars with XML data

All the examples in the text books, etc. show the LoadVars
object being used with a .txt file. Can I use it with a .xml file
or not? I have tried but the output panel just shows rubbish
data!

LoadVars is not XML. You need to get a textbook that
discusses XML and
Flash.
The Flash documentation has excellent example for both
LoadVars and XML.
LoadVars:
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00002336.html
XML:
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00002879.html
With XML you have the additional task of parsing out the
data.

Populating a PDF form with XML data

Hi folks,
I would like to create some pdf form template, populate it with xml data and output from it a pdf file.
Can I do such thing using LiveCycle?

XmlDataProvider .... is gone completely in my Xaml file. Why? How many different ways to deal with xml data source through WPF

I followed a procedure described in a book.
1. insert "Inventory.xml" file to a project "WpfXmlDataBinding" .
2. add the XML data source through the data panel of "blend for 2013", named it "InventoryXmlDataStore" and store it in the current document.
3. dragged and droppped the nodes from the Data panel onto the artboard.
Then I checked my Xaml file against the one provided by the book
Xaml file by the book:
<Window.Resources>
<XmlDataProvider x:Key="InventoryDataSource"
Source="\Inventory.xml"
d:IsDataSource="True"/>

<DataTemplate x:Key="ProductTemplate">
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=@ProductID}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Cost}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Description}"/>
<CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding XPath=HotItem}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Name}"/>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
<ListBox HorizontalAlignment="Left"
ItemTemplate="{DynamicResource ProductTemplate}"
ItemsSource="{Binding XPath=/Inventory/Product}"
Margin="89,65,0,77" Width="200"/>
</Grid>
my Xaml file:
<Window x:Class="WpfXmlDataBinding.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="MainWindow" Height="922" Width="874">
<Window.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="ProductTemplate">
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=@ProductID}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Cost}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Description}"/>
<CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding XPath=HotItem}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Name}"/>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid DataContext="{Binding Source={StaticResource InventoryXmlDataStore}}">

ItemTemplate="{DynamicResource ProductTemplate}"
ItemsSource="{Binding XPath=/Inventory/Product}"
Margin="65,55,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="270"/>

All looks quite the same except the <XmlDataProvider ....> part under <Window.Resources>, which is gone completely in my Xaml file.

Never do yourself down Richard.
Leave that to other people.
It's quite common for smart developers to think they're not as good as they are.
I coach a fair bit and it's a surprisingly common feeling.
And to repeat.
Never use anything ends .. provider. They're for trivial demo apps. Transform xml into objects and use them. Write it back as xml. Preferably, use a database.
You want to read a little mvvm theory first.

Whatever you do, don't read Josh Smiths explanation. I used to recommend it but it confuses the heck out newbies. Leave that until later.
Laurent Bugnion did a great presentation at mix10. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be working on the MS site, but I have a copy. Download and watch:

I'm writing an article at the moment which is aimed at beginners.

The sample is just a collection of techniques really.
I have a sample which involves no real data but is intended to illustrate some aspects of how viewmodels "do stuff" and how you use datatemplates to generate UI.
I can't remember if I recommended it previously to you:
https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/WPF-Dialler-simulator-d782db17

Use of "with master data & with out master data" at DTP update level

Hello experts,
In DTP, I check "with out master data". When I try to send corresponding transactional data, It is showing SID related error. Can anybody suggest what is the use of "with master data & with out master data" at DTP level.
Thanks in advance,
Zakir.

HI
HI in DTP level If you set this indicator, the system terminates the update of the request if no values are available for a data record.
Load the relevant master data before you load the transaction data.
If you set this indicator, the system terminates activation if master data is missing and produces an error message.
If you do not set this indicator, the system generates any missing SID values during activation.
In DataStore maintenance, if you do not set the SIDs Generation upon Activation indicator, the No Update without Master Data indicator in the DTP has no effect.
thx

XSLT and generated text using InDesign with xml

I have recently switched from Framemaker to InDesign and am still getting to grips with the differences so apologies if this is a very basic query.
Framemaker was used to format sgml tagged text. You could specify that a particular tag generated a prefix or suffix. You could also specify that the tag should generate the prefix or suffix only under certain circumstances (context rules). The prefixes and suffixes I need to apply are things like open and closing brackets, commas, full stops, and sometimes a bit of text.
I am told that this can be done with XSLT. There are whole libraries of books on XSLT out there and not knowing anything about the subject I really don't know where to start. Does anyone out there who uses InDesign with xml and XSLT have any tips about where to find useful information on the subject?
Thanks in advance for any help on the subject.
Steven

Yeah, we use to have such feature wayback then. Indesign package into GoLive. Kindly look through the idea section and vote massively for this idea.

Any Examples of using ActiveCollectionModelDecorator with POJO data control

Are there any Examples of using ActiveCollectionModelDecorator with POJO data control in any of the sample packs?

OK, here's an quick example. Create a new Windows Forms application and add a ScatterGraph and a Label to the form. Add a cursor to the ScatterGraph, then add the code below to the form. This generates 50 random data points when the form is loaded and plots them, then uses the cursor's AfterMove event to display the current X and Y positions in the label. Here's the code:
Private Sub OnFormLoad(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Const dataLength As Integer = 50
Dim xData(dataLength - 1) As Double
Dim yData(dataLength - 1) As Double
Dim rnd As Random = New Random
For i As Integer = 0 To dataLength - 1
xData(i) = i
yData(i) = rnd.NextDouble() * 10
Next
ScatterGraph1.PlotXY(xData, yData)
End Sub
Private Sub OnAfterMoveXYCursor(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As NationalInstruments.UI.AfterMoveXYCursorEventArgs) Handles XyCursor1.AfterMove
Label1.Text = String.Format("({0}, {1})", e.XPosition, e.YPosition)
End Sub
Hope this helps.

Populating ComboBox with XML data

Hi there,
Probably the most basic question, but I'm having a hard time with this...
Trying to populate the ComboBox with XML data as a dataProvider.
Here is the code snippet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
 layout="vertical"
 creationComplete="baseDataRequest.send()">
 <mx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 import mx.collections.XMLListCollection;
 import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
 [Bindable]
 private var baseDataXML:XML;
 private function baseResultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void
 baseDataXML = event.result.node.child as XML;
 ]]>
 </mx:Script>
 <mx:HTTPService id="baseDataRequest"
 useProxy="false"
 resultFormat="e4x"
 result="baseResultHandler(event)"
 url="XML_URL"/>
 <mx:ComboBox id="comboDemo"
 width="390"
 dataProvider="{baseDataXML}"
 labelField="NodeName"/>
</mx:Application>
And that returns nothing, basically. I know the XML is being pulled, because if I do this:
baseDataXML = event.result as XML;
then I just see a single item in my ComboBox, with full XML content.
How do I populate the ComboBox with XML contents?
XML example:
<root>
 <node> <child>Child1</child>
 <child>Child2</child>
 </node>
</root>
Question: how do I populate the ComboBox with XML data nodes? I need <child> content to be the labelField of each combo box item...
Thanks!
K

 <mx:Script>
 <![CDATA[
 var baseDataXML:XML = <root><node><child>Child1</child><child>Child2</child></node></root>;
 ]]>
 </mx:Script>
 <mx:ComboBox id="comboDemo"
 width="390"
 dataProvider="{baseDataXML.node.child}"
 labelField="NodeName"/>
Don't do:
baseDataXML = event.result.node.child as XML;
Instead just do:
baseDataXML = XML(event.result);
And in your combo:
dataProvider="{baseDataXML.node.child}"

Create offline interactive forms using webdynpro java with XML data source

Hi Gurus,
I am having a scenario like below:
Sales guy request for order list online from portal- Sytem receives the request and creat XML file- from xml file need to create a Offline interactive form-Sales guy fills it offline at customer site- uploads in portal -on submit xml has to be generated with captured data at customer site-Process to ECC.
So my questions are:
How to create the offline interactive form from XML?
Once filled offline interactive form uploaded into portal how to create XML again from pdf ?
Please give some idea on this as this is my first Offline interactive form using XML datasource.
Thanks
Ravi

Hi Otto,
Sorry for replying lately. First of all I did not get your suggestions as your are editing the same posting.
Secondly we will be using WDJ. Actually in between SAP Portal and ECC we are having adobe LCES so we need to create Interactive form using XML only. Once it is filled again the form will be submitted to another application which is running on FLEX, which will process the order.
if you can give me your personal id i can send you the detailed process
Thanks

Problem using JRC 2.0 on Unix with xml data source

Hello,
I am experimenting difficulties using the JRC 2.0 (which I hadn't with the previous version) on a RedHat 4 machine. It takes 7 minutes (only 20 seconds on Windows) to create a pdf (1 page) from a simple report using an xml file as data source.
It takes approximately 2 minutes when opening the report
      > reportClientDoc.open(REPORT_NAME, 0);
then 4 minutes are required to connect the report to the xml data source
      > reportClientDoc.getDatabaseController().setDataSource(xml_ds, "", "");
Have you got any clue on possible reasons for this issue ?

Prepopulating Interactive Form with XML Data using VBA

I have an excel spreadsheet with data on it. I need to click on a button that will cause an Interactive PDF form to open and be populated with data from the spreadsheet. To do this I want to use an XML data file. I know how to create the file, but how do I cause the PDF to open in Adobe Reader with the XML data file using VBA? The link needs to be a soft link, in that the name of the XML file could change.
Many thanks for answers.

 strXFDFFile = "c:\temp\" & strFileName & "tmp.xfdf"
 'Open the PDF file
 appPDFInit = True
 Status "Processing " & strFileName
 DoEvents
 ' Create PDF File, if any
 If strXFDFFile <> "" Then
 Dim fldValue As String
 Open strXFDFFile For Output As #1
 Print #1, "<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""UTF-8""?>"
 Print #1, "<xfdf xmlns=""http://ns.adobe.com/xfdf/"" xml:space=""preserve"">"
 Print #1, "<f href=""" & strFilePath & strFileName & """/>"
 Print #1, "<fields>"
 For Each fdField In rsData.Fields
 If IsNull(fdField.Value) Then
 fldValue = ""
 Else
 fldValue = fdField.Value
 fldValue = XMLit(fldValue)
 End If

 fldValue = Format(fldValue, "##########")
 End If

 End If
 ' Write #1, fdField.Name,
 Print #1, "<field name=""" & fdField.Name & """>"
 Print #1, "<value>" & fldValue & "</value>"
 Print #1, "</field>"
 Next
 Print #1, "</fields>"
 Print #1, "</xfdf>"
 Close #1
 End If
 Dim x As Long
 For x = 1 To 1000000: Next x
 LaunchPDF.LaunchFile strXFDFFile, 0, 2
Make sure you reference the Adobe Acrobat Browser Control Library under Tools | References
It will merge to Adobe Reader. Note that I have made the strXFDFFile variable unique by including the name of the PDF file. This assures that you can merge to more than one PDF at a time (this is taken from a loop for multiple PDF files). Note that the XFDF file must include the path and the PDF file name in order to open the correct PDF for merging.
I don't have time to explain the code, but if you have any questions let me know.

PDF form with XML data connection comes up blank at run time

Hello All,
I am a newbie to ADOBE Livecycle 9, but am very proficient in C#. I would like to request for your guidance on the following issue.
We have a desktop application in C#, WPF, Sqlserver. The requirement is to launch a Livecycle form from the application for the user to read/edit/save data
I have done this much so far -
Downloaded trial version of Livecycle 9
Developed a interactive PDf form
Created an XML based data connection. Generated fields on the form using the fields from this connection.
Set the .XML file as preview source for the form
the controls on the form are boumd to the xml data source
In design mode, the form works fine, it displays my data correctly
I have created a WPF form with a button. On click of this button, I call the Process.Start(pdf-file-path). My pdf is launched properly
I have added a combo box to my WPF form. I select a parameter from this, then call a stored procedure which returns me a datatable depending on parameter passed
Using the returned datatable, I have used the datatable.writexml and datatable.writexmlschema to create my XML and XSD files. as mentioned above, this xsd is used to create the data connection for the PDF and the XML for the preview source
This is what I want to do -
Launch the PDF from my WPF form, pre-populated with the newly created XML data from my WPF form.
So basically, as the user changes the selection criteria from the combo box, the XML file data will change and the PDF file will be launched each time with new data.
The XSD format will always be constant
Problem -
My XML and XSD get created properly, my PDF launches, but it is empty
If I change my selection criteria and run the WPF application, and then open the PDF in design mode, it asks me whether it should refresh the XML source. This means that the PDF form is connecting correctly to the XML source
So why then, does the form come up empty at run time?
What link am I missing?
I have found some sites that help using Web applications, but nothing for desktop applications. It would be fantastic if you could point me to some help for developing Livecycle forms with C# / SQLServer
Your help in this case will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards

But I can conclude since the ClearImage component can read the barcodes that they are compressed correctly. Can you help me with getting further with this problem? Sincerely Kim

Barcoded form with XML-data

Hi all,
In our solution we have some barcodes on a form (7 barcodes on the one that I am using), they contain compressed XML data (I know that this uses much space in the barcode - anyway it should work regardless of this).
What the interesting thing is what is returned from the "decode-service" in WB.
When I run a scanned form through the process I have created I get "garbled" xml in my XML-doc that is returned from the decode-service.
If I use a handheld scanner (with a customly created program that handles the compression) I get the correct data from the barcode.
If I do not use compression in the barcode I get the correct XML data from the barcode (with the decode-service). This is weird to me... What is going on???
Some time ago I posted this issue (http://www.adobeforums.com/webx?128@@.3c058293) but never really caught up with a solution.
Can you help me with this?
Sincerely
Kim

Populate PDF form with XML data

Although a seemingly simple task, this question has occupied way too much of my time the last week and I am asking the following out of sheer desperation and frustration.
I have a pdf form created with Designer 7.0. I have a separate XML data file to populate the form with. I can test using the preview in Designer and everything looks great. Now, all I want to do is deploy this pdf to a standard web server (IIS, Windows) such that any visitor to the site (using Reader) is able to open it/view it/print it, with the data there. That's it.
This was easily accomplished using Acrobat 6 by creating an ASP page that output an FDF file which referenced the PDF. Not so with the latest version.
I have downloaded three separate several hundred page documents that do not explain how to accomplish this task simply. So to summarize:
1. Does this task *require* a separate piece of software (Document Server) that was not required before?
2. If Document Server is not required, what are the steps to publish the pdf file and reference the data file?
Please help, extraordinarily frustrated :-(.

Ravinder, were you actually able to get your PDF Document (Form) to load with data? I have not been able to get my .NET page to populate my PDF document - the PDF loads in my Browser but has no data. If you can post sample code that you were able to get to work, it would be appreciated, or if you notice something wrong with my code below, please let me know. Also, when my PDF document loads in my browser, I am prompted to "Open or Save" my .xdp file and if I click "Open", my PDF Form loads, but the fields are not populated. How do I stop this prompt from loading? I don't want the user(s) to be able to see this.

Filling PDF Form with XML data file

Hello everybody.
I need help.
I created a form with LiveCycle Designer. I filled it and generated a XML data files. Now, I would like to fill the same blank PDF form with this XML data file.
I know that I can do it with Adobe 8.0 but I must do it in an C# / .NET application that I have to create.
(Forms I'm creating are not for me, I create the forms. Client uses them form but he don't have Adobe Acrobat 8.0, so he can't realise the automatic PDF filling with Adobe Acrobat 8.0)
So I am looking for help with ".NET" "COM" or other library to help me to do it. If someone has other idea just give it.
Thanks for your reply
Jean Pierre (sorry for my bad English)

Hello Mike
Thank's for your reply. I used XPAAJ and it works very well but my company his develloping software with C# langage.
I tried to convert XPPAJ to C#, I did it with the Java Langage Conversion Assistant but "Adobe Library" included in jar files cannot be translated to C#/.NET library. So, I can't use it.
I found some C#/.NET API on the NET but they are very expensive and my company don't want to pay. They want me to create my own solution with library given by Adobe when you buy Adobe 8. So I am looking for this library.
Is there an Adobe LiveCycle Designer SDK to help me.
Thank you in advance for your reply
