Using XML to create files through API
Hi.
I created a new custom type - a subclass of "Document", with a few private attributes.
I wrote a small XML file that creates an instance of that type.
I have no problem using that XML with FTP or with the web interface - it parses the XML automatically and creates my custom file.
However, when I try to use the java API to do the same, it just copies the XML file into IFS, but doesn't parse it or creates the custom file that is defined in it.
I am using the IFSFileSystem.createDocument method, with parsing set to true, and "null" for the callback parameter.
Of course, the XML parser is registered (as I said, it works with FTP and web interface).
Please help.
Thanks, Edo.
Sure .. you can use XML as the data source. If you have DW8,
you can even
do it right in the Dreamweaver Interface.

When we use XML,XSD,WSDL files to create SOA webservices in jdeveloper ,what will happen means internally,how will useful xml ,xsd,wsdl for composite ?
How xml will send message to XSD then how wsdl interaction then to composite ?XSD (XML Schema Definition), is an abstract representation of a XML characteristics.
The WSDL (Web Services Description Language), describes the functionality offered by your web service.
You can say what operations your services offers, and describe the messages used for this operations in your XSD. -
Sender file adapter - Can I use *.xml for the file name
Hi Gurus,
I have some interfaces where I need to pick the file from a directory. The name of the file will have Data<i>time stamp</i> as the naming convention. Can I use *.xml to pick up my files from this directory?
The help.sap.com documentation says that we can use this naming convention.
<b>
● File Name
Specify the name of the file that you want to process. The name can contain placeholders (*, ? (placeholders for exactly one character)) so that you can select a list of files for processing.
</b>
I tried using *.xml for my file name in the communication channel, XI is not picking up this file.
Please let me know if you have the solution.
Thanks
KalyanMurthy,
Thanks for the reply.
I am using GuildFTP tool as my FTP server. In this tool, all the permissions were given for the file to pick up.
The status of the file is good.
Where in the file adapter configuration I have to select 'Read-only'?
The file adapter is working perfect with the exact name of the file.
Thanks

How Do You Use XML To Create Image Upload On A WebSite?
Hello,
Could some one please help me understand how to create web image gallery and web video gallery using XML? I have found few xml codes that could be used to do this but I am not so sure how to use them. I want my clients to be able upload images and videos with linking thumbnails to Image and or Videos. Do you think the codes I included in this question will help me achive this goal? And do I need to put all in one and in the same directory so it will work? Please help with your idea and tell me how you would use these codes and how you may step-by-step implement the idea your self to your own web site.
I have also included the instruction I found on the web with the codes.
Starting with You Tube, API on their video gallery, here are the codes I found,
Assume you are to use the YouTube, XML code; What will you change here so it will work on your own www.domain.com?
<% Dim xml, xhr, ns, YouTubeID, TrimmedID, GetJpeg, GetJpeg2, GetJpeg3, thumbnailUrl, xmlList, nodeList, TrimmedThumbnailUrl Set xml = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument")
xml.async = False
xml.setProperty "ServerHTTPRequest", True
xml.Load("http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/Shuggy23/favorites?orderby=updated") If xml.parseError.errorCode <> 0 Then
Response.Write xml.parseError.reason End If Set xmlList = xml.getElementsByTagName("entry") Set nodeList = xml.SelectNodes("//media:thumbnail") For Each xmlItem In xmlList
YouTubeID = xmlItem.getElementsByTagName("id")(0).Text
TrimmedID = Replace(YouTubeID, "http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/", "")
For Each xmlItem2 In nodeList
thumbnailUrl = xmlItem2.getAttribute("url")
Response.Write thumbnailUrl & "<br />"
Next Next
%>
For the image gallery, the following are the codes I found with your experience do I need to use the entire codes or just some of them that I should use?
CODE #01Converting Database queries to XML
Using XML as data sources presumes the existence of XML. Often, it is easier to have the server create the XML from a database on the fly. Below are some scripts for common server models that do such a thing.
These are starting points. They will need to be customized for your particular scenario.
All these scripts will export the data from a database table with this structure:
ID: integer, primary key, autoincrement
AlbumName: text(255)
ImagePath: text(255)
ImageDescription: text(2000)
UploadDate: datetime
The output of the manual scripts will look like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<images>
<image>
<ID>1</ID>
<album><![CDATA[ Family ]]></album>
<path><![CDATA[ /family/us.jpg ]]></path>
<description><![CDATA[ here goes the description ]]></description>
<date><![CDATA[ 2006-11-20 10:20:00 ]]></date>
</image>
<image>
<ID>2</ID>
<album><![CDATA[ Work ]]></album>
<path><![CDATA[ /work/coleagues.jpg ]]></path>
<description><![CDATA[ here goes the description ]]></description>
<date><![CDATA[ 2006-11-21 12:34:00 ]]></date>
</image>
</images>
These are all wrapped in CDATA because it is will work with all data types. They can be removed if you know you don't want them.
Note: If using the column auto-generating versions, ensure that all the column types are text. Some databases have data type options like 'binary', that can't be converted to text. This will cause the script to fail.

I thought the whole process was supposed to be a bit more seemless? Having to upload/download documents and manually keep them in sync will leave a lot of room for errors.
It's kinda painful the way iOS doesn't have folders. It makes things incompatible with the Mac and means you can't group files from multiple apps into a single project - who organises their digital life by the apps they use?
I think I'll recommend they use their iPad only.
Thanks for that.

Error while creating contact through API in Install Base
Hello

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.Hi
We are in 11.5.10.2 and I already checked notes which you sent before and setups are fine as the relationship type' Ship to' having 'contacts' enabled in the setup.
I am also seeing a differernt issue as once I update existing item instnace with the status 'Return for Credit' through API, system is not allowing me to update the extended attributes through front end application manually and I am seeing a note at the end of the screen as 'Note: This item instance cannot be updated. ' and this is only happening when I update the item instance status to 'Returned for Credit' not when I create new item instances with status as 'Created'. Is this intended functionality to restrict update on extended attributes if I change the status of item instnace to 'Return for Credit' ?

Search informations about using XML to create scripts (automate tests)
Hello,
I search some (A LOT OF...) informations about using XML in Labview. I know that Labview use a specific schema for XML, but I search examples or tutorials.
My aim is to control a VI with a script in XML, I would know if I can generate "while loop", modified attributes etc... with my XML file?
ByeHi leo,
first for all others: this is related to this thread!
Then:
Your script should be handled by LabView in an interpreter-style. So you read in the script and parse the commands. For each command that is supported you have to provide the functionality in a state-machine like handling routine.
I would stay away from the before mentioned "LabView scripting", atleast for production-type programs as LV-Scripting is not supported by NI (and not easy to handle...)!

InDesign CS3: Problem in creating assignment files through API.
I had written some code for InDesign CS2 that allows user to
create an empty Assignment file,export any selected pageitem and add to the Assignment,save the assignment.
Now I have ported the same code for InDesign CS3 by following porting guidelines.
I am facing an issue in saving the article. When any page item is exported and added to the assignment, the exported file name displayed under the newly created assignment in Assignments Palette of InDesign. But when i save the assignment the exported file is moved into UnAssigned InCopy Content in the palette.
Also the final InCopy file doesnot contain link to exported page item file(.incx).
I am using the following API in my code,
void ExportStoryAndCreateLink(const UIDRef & story,const IDFile & file,
const FileTypeInfoID & fileTypeID
) [virtual]
Please post in this thread if any one has come across this issue.
Thanks in advance,Hi vivek,
Have you tried adding the same document with the client ?
OACT is the accounts table and this error message typically indicates that there is an account parameter missing somewhere in the system.
Possible causes include:
- you are using a tax group or warehouse which does not have all the required accounts set
- There is a price rounding and the rounding price account has not been set in the account settings
- etc.
The first things I would check include the tax group settings and the G/L Account determination settings.

Now, question.
Do I need to run the Create Project from a specific Responsibility?
because when I ran the underlined query, I fpound the final status as 'N'.
I'm a HR guy and PA is a new world for me. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!!
VikyYou need to find any responsibility and userid that lets you create a project using the screen.
And then in your code, you need to set your context to that resp/userid.
Hope this helps

Unable to create Groups through API
Hi,
I have an approval workflow for creation of a new organization and it works fine.Once the last level of approval is completed, I should create a new org and three groups inside OIM. My adapter creates the new organization successfully. however, I am getting exception when I try to create the groups. Can someone please tell me what the issue is. I have assigned all the group permissions to the user group approving the request.Following is the code snippet and exception that I get:
HashMap<String,String> orgMap = new HashMap<String,String>();
orgMap.put("Organizations.Organization Name", orgName);
orgMap.put("Organizations.Type", "Organization");
long orgKey = orgOper.createOrganization(orgMap);
System.out.println("New Organization Created");
HashMap<String,String> groupMap = new HashMap<String,String>();
groupMap.put("Groups.Group Name", orgName+" Admin");
long adminGroupKey = groupOper.createGroup(groupMap); - this is the line I get the following exception

Thanks,
SupreethaYou need to give your user insert/create permissions for groups. If it is creating it after the approval is completed, then you need to assign the permissions to the group of users who would perform the last approval because their session is passed onto the rest of the tasks. You could use private key authentication though to switch to xelsysadm and use that user to create the group.

Dynamically creating file using variable
HI, i am facing an issue in creating file on run time using variable.
i have a variable FileName. In refresh tab i have written a query like SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'YYYY,MM,DD') || 'TEST' FROM DUAL. i tested the variable and its value is correct.
i have created an interface to extract the data from table and store it in file. i have assigned variable FileName to the file.
Now when i run the interface...the file is created but the header is created in different file and its name is ambiguous e,g(19) and the data is placed in other file with the name which is the value of variable FileName.....
ISSUE is two ODI creates two files one for header only and other for data....
when i run my interface in a package the file created perfectly ..... but i dun want to use package i want to create file through running interface onlyone file name is some number like 19.txt and other filename is 20121211_TEST.txt (this name is coming from variable).....
however when i create a package with variable and interface,only one file is created 20121211_TEST.txt (header and data are not created in separate files.)
create header (ID,

I'm re-writing a swing client that uses regular serialization to files in order to save user data. The data that needs to be persisted to file is very hierarchical by nature. I'm using MVC throughout the application.
Now, I'm considering using XML as the file format for the persistence. I've written an XML schema (xsd) that dictates the data model.
As I've stumbled upon XStream before I first had a look at that for marshalling/unmarshalling my XML. XStream is wonderful but it kind of makes the XML schema validation useless as I see it. So, now I'm looking at JAXB (or maybe XMLBeans) instead as the API between my XML files model layer in the application.
Basically, what I'm looking for is a convenient way to read XML data from file into my data model. Obviously I want to be able to create XML from my data model as well. Will JAXB really save me from doing all the mapping between the XML and data model (POJO's) based on my XML schema?
Am I barking at the wrong tree here? Also, please stop me if you think that XML are a ridiculous way of persisting application data.
Thanks in advance!Thank you for your input DrClap!
My Swing app is kind of a CAD app where users can make drawings of marinas. Objects can be moved, rotated, connected to each other and grouped and each object has a set of properties. The drawing layout, object props and calculation parameters needs to be persistent. Think MS Visio... Target audience is marine engineers that needs to make force calulations.
Generating an xml file from my xml schema produces a file on about 7Kb (about 200 lines). A real life file would probably be at least 10 times bigger.
I don't see an issue with updating or adding single elements in the XML. This is only done when the user saves to file, in all other cases the application would store data in the model layer. And as I understand it JAXB would handle all XML marhsalling/unmarshalling automagically.
The only thing I'm worried about is having JAXB generating the model classes from my xml schema (xsd). Since I'm working with MVC my current model classes all fire property change events to its controllers whenever a setter is called. This would be lost if JAXB would generate the model for me. Am I right? My assumption with JAXB/XMLBeans is that you update the model by changing your xml schema and then generate/compile you model classes (and ObjectFactory).
Thank you for taking your time to read this! -
Use xml file to create a word/pdf document
i have a xml doument created using jdom i need to create a word or a pdf document from this file
is there a way to tackle this using java? or what else would you recomend?Without knowing any details, I would guess that you have a couple of options;
Parse the xml using SAX or some similar tool and use the data recovered to create the document using an existing API; HWPF for example would allow you to create a simple Word documnet or, if you were much braver, you could use the SWT to 'drive' Word using OLE/COM.
If you are very lucky and the xml document conforms to the format Word has recently begun to recognise, you could just try opening the document in Word using the Desktop class.
As far as I am aware, there is no one tool that will do all of this for you. Of course, you could try using Google of visiting Sourceforge to see if anyone is working on such an application. -
