Using Translate() function of XSLT ...

Hi guys
I have an xml document that i am converting into an html document using XSLT. I need to replace the XML new lines(&#10) with html new lines ( ) while the xslt transform takes place on my xml document.
For this I have found the translate function of XSLT but I need to use it on a specific tag and not all the tags in the xml document.
<ExampleTag>
1 first line
2 second line
3 third line
</ExampleTag>
translate(string, replaced_text, replacement_text)
so I need to get my tags value in the variable string which is:
1 first line
2 second line
3 third line
and replaced_text: '&#10' and replacement_text: ' '
but the problem is XSLT syntax is so bad that i just cant devote enough time to learn it. Any suggestions for the syntax guys?? an example would be extremely useful.
cheers :)

Hey
after a bit of struggle came up with this:
<xsl:template match="ExampleTag">
<xsl:variable name="string" select="."> </xsl:variable>
translate(string, "&#10", "" )
<xsl:value-of select="$string"/>
</xsl:template>
but its not working :(
any suggestions??

Using Saxon Functions Within XSLT

Hi,
Please let me know how to use saxon functions within XSLT.
E.g.: If I want to implement saxon:base64Binary-to-string() function in XSLT in "xsl:value-of" function, then what will be the format for implementation.
I have selected the Processor as Saxon 8.9.0.3 (the one available) and using xmlns:saxon="http://saxon.sf.net/" in the xsl:stylesheet tag.
I am using Stylus Studio 2007 XML Enterprise Suite for XSLT.
Thanks,
Abhishek.

Hi,
Yes I intended to use the XLST mapping within PI...but now will have to change the plan...is there any other way to do it?....is this the problem with the SP?.....anybody who can put more light on this topic.....
Thanks,

Using translate function to correct character set problem....

I have a table(TBL_STOCK) on Oracle XE.
Rows come from sql server 2005 with a trigger on sql server table via the linked server.
But there is a character set problem with some character like İ,Ş,Ğ.
They change to Ý,Þ,Ð. in Oracle.
How can i correct these ? Do you suggest the TRANSLATE function ?
What do u think, if i create an After Insert trigger on Oracle table(TBL_STOCK) and convert these character using the Translate function when they inserted from sql server.
Anyone have any other ideas that can be more efficient. Any thoughts appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Adam
PS:The NLS_CHARACTERSET of Oracle is AL32UTF8.

It is sql server 2005 and Collation is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS

Using translate function for one to many character translation

Hi friends!
Can anybody tell me whether it is possible to use built in translate function for converting some text from a one alphabet to another one, if these alphabets are of different length. Something like
SELECT TRANSLATE('текст',
'АБВГДЕЕЖЗИКЛМНОПРСТУФХЦЧШЩЭЮЯ',
'ABCGDEF"*GH*"HIJKLMNOPQRSTYVWXYZ') FROM dual;
Or there is another function for this, or it is impossible?
Thanks

Hi,
Maybe you could use REPLACE just once, and then TRANSLATE the rest?
Something like:
SELECT TRANSLATE(REPLACE('ABcDE', 'c', 'xz'),
                 'ABCDE',
                 'abcde') from dual;
TRANSLATE(REPLACE('ABCDE','C','XZ'),'ABCDE','ABCDE')
abxzde
1 row selected.Regards

Use document() function in xslt

Hi I want to use the xslt function document() to import a data file into the transformation.
However I don't seem to be able to import the xml file onto the osb. can this be done ?
Basically can you use the document() function?
I've tried googling and searching the docs but i think i'm missing something basic :-)
Thanks in advance

Not an answer to the particular point but i've got round the issue by adding a stage which inserts the data xml into the xml document being transformed.
I then supress the data injected from being copied to the output tree and use a variable which references the data nodes rather than a variable referencing
an external doc variable name="myvar" select="//injecteddatanode" /> rather than <variable name="myvar" select="document("path/doc.xml")
The question still stands though : how do you import an xml doc which can then be used by the document function in a transform

maybe
select nls_upper('i','NLS_SORT=turkish') from dual; or
select nls_upper('i','NLS_SORT=xturkish') from dual;but I am not sure and do not have the right characterset to test

Date function in XSLT

Hi All,
I am trying to use date function in XSLT, I am using the below code, please correct me if i am wrong
<corecom:EffectiveDate>
<xsl:value-of select='xp20:format-dateTime(ns0:Segment-DTM/ns0:Element-373,"[YYYY][M01][D01]")'/>
</corecom:EffectiveDate>
Regards
Francis

Hi Francis,
It doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the code itself, but what's the content of ns0:Segment-DTM/ns0:Element-373 ???
The xp20:format-dateTime function will work if the date on the first parameter is on ISO 8601 format...
http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime
Examples
1994-11-05T08:15:30-05:00 corresponds to November 5, 1994, 8:15:30 am, US Eastern Standard Time.
1994-11-05T13:15:30Z corresponds to the same instant.

Need help in using replace function with special characters

I have a column in a table where the data can contain ascii code for special characters such as an apostrophe.
The data looks like this:
CREEK'S LANE
ie for a street named CREEK'S LANE.
I want to replace the ascii representation with the apostrophe and have the returned data show up as: CREEK's LANE
When I try the query below I get prompted for substitution variable value.
I don't seem to be able to find the right syntax to make this query work.
SELECT REPLACE (street_name, ''', '''')
FROM
streets WHERE street_id = 1
Does anybody know how to do this?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

GeorgeHa! The codes you specified rendered in the HTML, but showed properly when I listed your original posting above. I didn't understand what you meant initially because the 5-character string represenation got rendered as the quote that you said you weren't able to get - a display problem.
You're getting prompted for the substituon variable because of the ampersand; you appear to be doing this in SQL*PLUS. The first thing I would try is to SET DEFINE OFF when using the ampersands to see if that works. If That doesn't work check the docs to delmit the ampersand (I think its a backslash before it but can't remember offhand). Another, harder option might be to use the TRANSLATE function replacing the literal character instead of using REPLACE (though replacing a quote will be a little tricky). If you're on 10g also consider using the advanced quoting
Good luck!

File scenario error in Used defined function

Hi Everyone,
I was doing file to file scenario, i want to get the same source file name in target also.
I created the structure as FileName, Company, Address. I did direct mapping for Company and Address
but for field FileName, i created a userdefined function as i want the same file name.
I mentioned the following code in Used defined function
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String ourSourceFileName = conf.get(key);
return ourSourceFileName;
When i test the mapping in IR, with sample data, i am getting this error.
RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformation: Runtime exception during processing target field mapping /ns0:Target_File_MT/FileName. The message is: Exception:[java.lang.NullPointerException] in class com.sap.xi.tf._Source_File_to_Target_File_MM_ method DynamicFile$[, com.sap.aii.mappingtool.tf3.rt.Context@1763e46]
Could anyone please help me with the issue.
I have done only IR part, I didnot configured ID.

Varun.

HI,
Check Adapter Specific Message attributes.This blog will help you
The specified item was not found.
You can also go for variable substitution :-
When you specify the target directory and file name schema, you have option of setting variables and defining them in a table. The variables are replaced by elements from the XML structure at runtime.
