Validating in SQL Utility

I am trying to validate a XML file before load it into Oracle database(using OracleXMLsave()), if it is not valid, don't load into the database. By using Sun's xml package, I just changed the system property,
-Dorg.xml.sax.parser=com.sun.xml.parser.ValidatingParser
I tried to use SAXParser.setValidateMode(true), it just gave me one message (not warning or error): "Element 'XXXX' used but not declared" and still parsed the XML file. I hope it can stop due to not valid. I don't know how it can be done in Oracle parser. Any suggestion are very very welcome!

| 1. as suggested , i was able to get the oraclexmlsql.jar
| from the servlet zip and loading it solved the problem of
| the jdbc string being printed int he cursor syntax . it
| works from the xmlgen utility withing pl/sql. but when
| using OracleXML in a java prog the results still printout
| the jdbc string.. any ideas...
Could only be a CLASSPATH problem difference in your two
tests.
| 2. Is there anyway to supress the rownum attribute tag in
| the subquery (cursor) results...that is the
| setRowIdAttrName .... w/o using xslt
Not at this time. Rownum supression on the subquery should
probably follow your settings on the main query. I'll
suggest to the devs.
| 3. We are implementing a solution using these tools.... we
| wanted to know which were the production versions.
XDK Components for XML and XSLT are production.
XML SQL Utility and XSQL Servlet are still Technical
Previews and as such are not yet production.

XML SQL Utility, 8i, NT4, test code

I have been unable to get the sample code to run successfully
after installing the XML SQL Utility on Oracle 8.1.5.0.0 on
Windows NT4 Service Pack 4.
To make sure I was doing nothing wrong, I reinstalled Oracle 8i
and loaded all the java into scott/tiger. Also the PLXMLPARSER
codes does appear to run correctly. At least the samples seem to
work.
I tried to use the oraclexmlsqlload.bat script, but the script
stopped after after loading oraclexmlsql.jar. So I ran each of
the loadjava scripts on the command line. They exited without
errors. Even the xmlgen package installed without errors. But
when I ran oraclexmlsqltest.sql, I got a message that said the
procedure completed successfully, but there was not output.
I put a dbms_output.put_line(SQLCODE) with each of the two
exceptions and got the following error. The procedure actually
failed on "when others" with error -29531. According to the
Error Manual this is
ORA-29531 no method string in class string
Cause: An attempt was made to execute a non-existent method in a
Java class.
Action: Adjust the call or create the specified method.
At this point I am not sure what to do.

Hi Frank,
Frank, make sure that the two "select xmlgen....." are
returning a valid XML document. If these aren't working let me
know, otherwise add a:
set serveroutput on
after the commit.
Also, before you do this, restore oraclexmlsqltest.sql to its
original state ... the exception section was masking exceptions
which we are aware we generate. If you look closely you will see
that we do a very rough job outputing the lob containing the XML
document (we print out past the length of the LOB, which raises
an exception).
Let me know what happens.

XML SQL Utility problem

Hi,
I'm trying to use the XML SQL Utility against a 8.0.5 database.
I coded a basic query against the SCOTT.EMP table.
I've instantiated an OracleXMLQuery object using both types of
constructors (i.e. Connection + ResultSet or query String). In
both cases the resulting XML String contains:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ERROR>Closed Resultset</ERROR>
I know that my Connection and ResultSet objects are valid because
I examined the ResultSet contents using standard JDBC getXXX
methods for the same Connection and query. I am establishing my
Connection using the thin driver. Is this the problem? Can you
also elaborate on the Oracle specific requirements for this API?
For example, will the API work for Connection and ResultSet
objects against non-Oracle databases? Thanks.
Fred

Hi Fred,
The closed ResultSet problem would occur when u are trying to
re-use the same object,
e.g.
OracleXMLQuery oxq = new OracleXMLQuery(conn,resultsetobject);
// get the string..
String xmlString = oxq.getXMLString();
By default OracleXMLQuery closes the ResultSet after
completion. so if u use.
xmlString = oxq.getXMLString();
again, you will get this error.
To overcome this there is a call called keepCursorAlive() which
takes in a boolean value. So call that function on oxq before
getting the first string and everything will be all right.
Currently we also close the resultSet given by the user. This
is a bug (we should only close our internal resultset) and we
will fix it in the next drop. Also we will make this error
message much more legible!
Regarding working against other databases, we use Oracle
specific stuff currently in case of object features such as
ADTs, REFs and collections and LOBs. For regular relational data
such as number, varchar etc.., we don't do anything special.
So for plain relational data this should work against
ResultSet and Connection objects created from other databases.
But to be honest, we haven't tested that out. So if you do
indeed run into any problems with other databases, please let us
know and we will try to fix it.
Thx

1.2 JVM crashes using XML SQL Utility 1.1.10 (NT 8.1.5)

I am trying to use the XML SQL Utility for Java (Oracle 8.1.5) to obtain a DTD or XML schema for tables in our database.
I have installed the XSU111.ZIP archive,
set the CLASSPATH and stuff, loaded the JAR
files (xmlparserv2.jar, oraclexmlsql.jar)
processed the xmlgenpkg.sql script (following the installation instructions)
When I execute the samples in Java, the JVM (JDK 1.2.2) crashes in javai.dll.
The same error occurs when I run java OracleXML getXML ....
The installation file (env.bat) lists the JDBC driver ZIP as CLASSES12.ZIP, which is of course, not available for 8.1.5, which is what the download instructions indicated is appropriate for XSU 1.1.1.
Any ideas? Do I need to upgrade to 8.1.6?
Can I patch the JDBC with classes12.ZIP.
By the way, when I execute the commands in PL/SQL using xmlgen package, everything is fine.
Regards and Much thanks

Set JDK_HOME to the directory where you install your JDK (Java Development Kit).

Is there a way to combine def and jkl and insert in one table so that there in one row with two columns test and testing??

Hi,
Are u sure that it is a java enabled database? The most common
case of failure with the xmlgen package is because the loadjava
command did not succeed.
Please make sure that oraclexmlsqlload.bat file loaded all the
java procedures successfully. If not then u would have to java-
enable your database by running the initjvm script. (please see
the docs).
Thx

XML SQL Utility, Unicode

Hi,
I have some questions to the XML-SQL-Utility:
1.) Is there a bug in the oracle.xml.sql.query class:
OracleXMLQuery qry = new OracleXMLQuery(conn,"select POSITION from DATAS");
qry.setRowTag("DROW");
OracleXMLDocGenDOM gdoc = new OracleXMLDocGenDOM();
qry.getXML(gdoc);
conn.close();
Document docin = gdoc.getXMLDocumentDOM();
NodeList rows = docin.getDocumentElement().getElementsByTagName("DROW");
// The Node "DROW" wasn't found.
// It work if I do it below
NodeList rows = docin.getDocumentElement().getElementsByTagName("ROW");
// It doesn't matter what is set in the "qry1.setRowTag("DROW");"
(I use the sun parser)
2.) I have a problem by insertXML(Document);
I will insert a Document with a structure as below in my database:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>
<ROOTDOC>
<ROW>
<DOCUMENTREF>133-12224</DOCUMENTREF>
<TEXT>hello</TEXT>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<DOCUMENTREF>133-124</DOCUMENTREF>
<TEXT>world</TEXT>
</ROW>
</ROOTDOC>
XmlDocument sdoc = new XmlDocument();
Element rootDEl = sdoc.createElement("ROOTDOC");
sdoc. appendChild(rootDEl);
Element rowEl = sdoc.createElement("ROW");
Element docREl = sdoc.createElement("DOCUMENTREF");
docREl.appendChild(sdoc.createTextNode("133-12224"));
NodeList rows = sdoc.getDocumentElement().getElementsByTagName("ROW");
int size = rows.getLength();
System.out.println("SIZE: " size "\n");
// The size is null, what's wrong ?
OracleXMLSave save = new OracleXMLSave(conn, tabName);
int rowCount = save.insertXML(sdoc);
// It didn't insert something in my table !
3.) I save Unicode UTF-16 in my database with the XML SQL Utility:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>
<ROOTDOC>
<ROW>
<TEXT>D$55DD</TEXT>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<TEXT>tt%zu||</TEXT>
If I read it whit the oracle.xml.sql.query, it is Unicode UTF-8:
OUTPUT IS:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ROOTDOC>
<ROW num="1">
<TEXT>D$55--</TEXT>
</ROW>
<ROW num="2">
<TEXT>tt%zu33</TEXT>
</ROW>
I want a output as the input (Unicode UTF-16).
Can anyone please advise on the problems.
Thanks

Hi H.Ozawa,
thanks for trying but non of the solution helped me, sorry.
Question 1:
I'll try it again like this:
OracleXMLQuery qry = new OracleXMLQuery(conn,"select POSITION from DATAS");
qry.setRowTag("DROW");
Document docin = qry.getXMLDOM();
conn.close();
NodeList rows = docin.getDocumentElement().getElementsByTagName("DROW");
// The Node "DROW" wasn't found.
Question 2:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>
<ROOTDOC>
<ROW>
<DOCUMENTREF>133-12224</DOCUMENTREF>
<TEXT>hello</TEXT>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<DOCUMENTREF>133-124</DOCUMENTREF>
<TEXT>world</TEXT>
</ROW>
</ROOTDOC>
XmlDocument sdoc = new XmlDocument();
Element rootDEl = sdoc.createElement("ROOTDOC");
sdoc. appendChild(rootDEl);
Element rowEl = sdoc.createElement("ROW");
Element docREl = sdoc.createElement("DOCUMENTREF");
docREl.appendChild(sdoc.createTextNode("133-12224"));
Element docTEl = sdoc.createElement("TEXT");
docTEl.appendChild(sdoc.createTextNode("hello"));
An error message occur:
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException: java.lang.IllegalAccessError: try to access class com/sun/xml/tree/ParentNode from class project/dbase/xmlwritedb at project.dbase.xmlwritedb.main(xmlwritedb.java:33)

at com.borland.jbuilder.util.BootStrap.main(Unknown Source)
Question 3:
I try it like below but the output is "UTF-8" encoding
OracleXMLDocGenDOM gdoc = new OracleXMLDocGenDOM();
query.getXML(gdoc);
XMLDocument docin = (XMLDocument)gdoc.getXMLDocumentDOM();
docin.setEncoding("ISO-8859-1"); //docin.setEncoding("UTF-16");
NodeList rows = docin.getDocumentElement().getElementsByTagName("ROW");
Element row = (Element)rows.item( i );
NodeList elements = row.getElementsByTagName( "DOCUMENTREF" );
So you or someone have another idea to fix this problems.
Thanks

XML SQL Utility - settagcase - all tags are upper or lower

I am using the XML SQL Utility (XSU) for PL/SQL to generate a xml document from some tables and objects. Is it possible to have the xml elements start and end tags appear in the case of the objects I have defined (i.e. CamelCase)? I can either have them appear as all upper or all lower case. However the oracle documentation has a SETTAGCASE function with an option for "as are". Is this supposed to allow for the case to follow how i have defined the fields in the object? If not is there a way?
For example here is an object
create or replace TYPE     CREDIT_APPLICANTTYPE AS OBJECT
First VARCHAR2(15 BYTE),
Last VARCHAR2(35 BYTE),
Middle VARCHAR2(1 BYTE),
Suffix VARCHAR2(3 BYTE)
);Settagcase 0 option doesn't seem to do anything different than the upper_case option when i generate the xml
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_xmlque.htm#i1033636
set serveroutput on
declare
queryCtx dbms_xmlquery.ctxType;
charstring VARCHAR2(255);
outxml CLOB;
begin
    queryCtx := dbms_xmlquery.newContext('select CREDIT_APPLICANTTYPE(''Joe'',''Smith'',''A'',''Jr.'') as AppName from dual');
    dbms_xmlquery.settagcase(queryCtx, 0);
    outxml := dbms_xmlquery.getXml(queryCtx);
    dbms_xmlquery.closeContext(queryCtx);
    charstring := dbms_lob.substr(outxml, 255, 1);
    dbms_output.put_line(charString);
end;Output is in uppercase but i would like camel case:
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW num="1">
<APPNAME>
<FIRST>Joe</FIRST>
<LAST>Smith</LAST>
<MIDDLE>A</MIDDLE>
<SUFFIX>Jr.</SUFFIX>
</APPNAME>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>

Actually I figured out the issue. Oracle automatically outputs the column alias as upper case unless you put it in quotes. I defined my object like this and it works with settagcase 0
create or replace TYPE CREDIT_APPLICANTTYPE AS OBJECT
"First" VARCHAR2(15 BYTE),
"Last" VARCHAR2(35 BYTE),
"Middle" VARCHAR2(1 BYTE),
"Suffix" VARCHAR2(3 BYTE)
);

Generating multi-level XML in Oracle 8i using XML-SQL utility

Oracle 8i has a limitation when it comes to the object types. Only one-level nesting of collection is allowed. Oracle 9i apparently removes this limitation.
I am trying to generate XML for a hierarchical (conceptually) structure. To do that I am using XML-SQL utility (XSU) running agains an object view build on top of the relational data. The problem is the limit to onelevels of colelction nesting. Oracle 8i gives you a way to create a view with more levels of nesting by using references (REF). The problem is that when XSU runs agains a view with the references, it inserts the references into the XML document (instead of dereferencing them).
Is there a way to generate XML with Oracle 8i with more than two levels of collection nesting?
Thank you.
Michael

Is XML-SQL Utility for Java run on Client Side?

A question about the XML-SQL Utility for Java
When a client program connect to a Oracle database (the clinet program and Oracle DB is run on two different machine. Oracle 8i is used) and use the oracle.xml.sql.query.OracleXMLQuery Class (form the XSU) to generate XML by given a SQL query. I want to know the transforation process is execute in the Clinet side or the database?
Is there any method that i can retrieve the XML directly from the database rather then doing the transformation form the Client side?

Set JDK_HOME to the directory where you install your JDK (Java Development Kit).

Firstly I think it is because the XML SQL Utility does not work with JDBC-ODBC driver.
So I try it again with Oracle driver.
But it still doesn't work? Why?

PL/SQL Utility for Sanitizing HTML User Input

I would like to allow my users to include a limited set of HTML tags in there text input. Does anyone have a PL/SQL utility they would be willing to share that scans a string and "sanitizes" it by escaping tags that do not belong to a set of programmer defined set of allowed tags? Something like what is mentioned in this post for Ruby: http://ideoplex.com/id/1138/sanitize-html-in-ruby.
Any related suggestions or techniques are much appreciated!
Thanks,
Bill

Hello,
My currently limited knowledge of APEX makes me think that this should be done using Javascript, called from the PL/SQL area. Assuming that you know a little about javascript, and that you are using a html form for input, you can insert some javascript to do the encoding. Here is some information on how to call a javascript from PL/SQL:

Also, check this site for some information on javascript encoding:
