XML DB capability comparison 91 & 10g

Can someone let me know whether a document/thread/support document exists which shows a comparison of capability "on the tin" between 9i and 10g please?
Thanks
Dave

Most of the time, the documents on OTN have a "What's new in...(oracle version number)" For instance in the Oracle database SQL Reference 10g Release 2"Guide (http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/wnsql.htm#sthref11). Some summeries are collected by enthousiast like on http://www.orafaq.com (differences in init.ora parameters). As far as I know there is not a "complete" summery on the specific context "XMLDB", or at least i have not seen it yet. On itself this is almost to much (and overkill) to summerize this. Most of it is in a short form available like in the Oracle® Database New Features Guide
10g Release 2 (10.2) --> http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14214/toc.htm.
Work through this and then go back in time ;-) (10gR1--> 9.2 --> 9)

Creating XML file via sql in 10g database

Hi
I am using an Oracle 10g database and via a procedure that is called from Forms 10g, I want to output data in XML format so that this file can be fed into an accounting system that uses XML.
How do I go about doing this?

How do I go about doing this?The most flexible way is via SQL/XML publishing functions.
And use DBMS_XSLPROCESSOR.CLOB2FILE to write the result to a file in a single call :
DECLARE
xmlresult      clob;
BEGIN
select xmlelement("Departments",
           xmlagg(
             xmlelement("Department",
               xmlattributes(
                 d.deptno as "id"
               , d.dname as "name"
             , xmlelement("Employees",
                 xmlagg(
                   xmlelement("Employee",
                     xmlattributes(e.empno as "id")
                   , xmlforest(
                       e.ename as "Name"
                     , e.job as "Job"
                     , e.mgr as "ManagerId"
                   ) order by e.empno
             ) order by d.deptno
         ).getclobval()
into xmlresult
from scott.dept d
       join scott.emp e on e.deptno = d.deptno
group by d.deptno, d.dname
dbms_xslprocessor.clob2file(xmlresult, 'TEST_DIR', 'departments.xml');

How to Insert data from an XML file into an Oracle 10g table

Hello,
Please can you help me as I have hit a brick wall with this problem.
We are running version 10g Oracle and we will start receiving XML files with employee data that needs loading into a table, this is the XML file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<RECRUITS>
<RECRUIT>
<FIRST_NAME>Gordon</FIRST_NAME>
<LAST_NAME>Brown</LAST_NAME>
<SHORT_NAME>GORDONBROWN</SHORT_NAME>
<APP_NO>00002</APP_NO>
<STATUS>M</STATUS>
<DATE_FROM>21-JUL-2006</DATE_FROM>
<RESOURCE_TYPE>P</RESOURCE_TYPE>
<TITLE>Mr</TITLE>
<DATE_OF_BIRTH>28-DEC-1983</DATE_OF_BIRTH>
<SOCIAL_SEC>AB128456A</SOCIAL_SEC>
<PARTTIME_PCT>1</PARTTIME_PCT>
<SEX>M</SEX>
<ADDRESS_TYPE>1</ADDRESS_TYPE>
<ADDRESS>A HOUSE SOMEWHERE HERE</ADDRESS>
<ZIP_CODE>PE3 LLL</ZIP_CODE>
<PLACE>BOROUGH</PLACE>
<COUNTRY_CODE>UK</COUNTRY_CODE>
<PROVINCE>UK</PROVINCE>
<EMAIL>[email protected]</EMAIL>
</RECRUIT>
(FYI - there may be more than 1 employee in each file so all of the above will be repeated X amount of times)
</RECRUITS>
To make things simple we have created a table which mirrors the XML file completely to load the data into, the SQL i have used is thus:
CREATE TABLE RECRUITMENT
FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(30),
LAST_NAME VARCHAR2(30),
SHORT_NAME VARCHAR2(30),
APP_NO NUMBER,
STATUS VARCHAR2(1),
DATE_FROM DATE,
RESOURCE_TYPE VARCHAR2(1),
TITLE VARCHAR2(4),
DATE_OF_BIRTH DATE,
SOCIAL_SEC VARCHAR2(9),
PARTTIME_PCT NUMBER,
SEX VARCHAR2(1),
ADDRESS_TYPE VARCHAR2(1),
ADDRESS VARCHAR2(30),
ZIP_CODE VARCHAR2(8),
PLACE VARCHAR2(10),
PROVINCE VARCHAR2(3),
EMAIL VARCHAR2(20)
Every method we try from the numerous documents and so called "user guides" have failed, please can somebody show me the PL/SQL i need to get this files data into the above table?
We need to be able to do this purely through SQL*PLUS as we hope - if we ever get it working manually to create a procuedure that will encapsulate everything so it can be run over and over again.
The XML file is sitting in the XMLDIR and is called REC.XML.

Loading XML file using sql*loader (10g)

Hi Everyone....
I have a major problem. I have a 10g database and I need to use sql loader to load a large XML file into the database. This file contains records for many, many customers. This will be done several times and the number of records will vary. I want to use sql loader and load to a staging table, BUT SPLIT THE RECORDS OUT and add a sequence. I am having 2 problems.
In the 10g documentation, when you want to split the records you use the BEGINDATA clause and indicate something (like a 0) for each instance of a record. Well my first file has 3,722 records in it. How do I know the number of records in each XML file?
The second problem is that because this is XML, I thought that I could use ENCLOSED BY. But the start tag has an attribute /counter in it, sql*loader doesnt recognize the starting tag. (i.e.: start tag is: </CustomerRec number=1>
end tag is: </CustomerRec> )
So, I used TERMINATED BY '</CustomerRec>'. This will split out the records, but it will NOT include the ending tag of </CustomerRec> and when I use extract, I receive an XML parsing error.
I have tried to get the ending tag using CONTINUEIF and SKIP. But those options are for "records" and not lines.
Does anyone have any ideas for the 2 problems above. I am at my wits end and I need to finish this ASAP. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Sorry.... here is an example of what my control file looks like. At the end, I have 92 "0", but remember, I have 3722 records in this first file.

UTF support in XML DB at Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Beta 2

hello everybidy! ;)
I use Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Beta 2 Release for Microsoft Windows (dated 16-Nov-05) and place into XML DB XSLT-file (UTF8-encoded and contained some Cyrillic chars) and 10g XP can`t apply such transformation but when i replace cyrillic chars with latin chars - everything work just fine. Is it known bug? Can it be fixed by some reconfiguration or moving to Linux version of 10g XP? When will new release?
truly yours,
Slav
p.s. here some oracle forum testing ХАРЕ=XAPE, PAMA=РАМА :)

Hello, Bhagat.
I don't understand why you would install HTMLDB with apexins.sql (it's a procedure to install HTMLDB for 9i and 10G EE/SE not XE)
because HTMLDB (APEX) is already install with Oracle Express Edition. Not need
to install it with apexins.sql

, it is giving some error Hmmm, six attempts and you still didn't manage to tell us what the actuall error message and number was. Oracle has thousands of error messages. If you would like us to help you, make it easy for us to figure out what's going on. Don't make us guess.

Create a large XML extract from relational tables - 10g

The Oracle 10g documentation recommends using the various SQL functions such as XMLAGG,XMLELEMENT or DBMS_XMLGEN under chapter "16 Generating XML Data from the Database" for generating a XML extract file. The DBMS_XMLDOM seems like a useful structured package to create a XML formatted extract. Any idea why Oracle does not recommend the use of XMLDOM API ? Are there performance issues or likely de-support ?
Whats the best way to produce a large XML extract?
Thanks.

mdrake wrote:
No reason not to use it. It just tends to require a lot more coding than the other methods. Underneath the covers they all map into the same code-line. In general, to generate a given XML document you wlll write far fewer lines of code using the SQL/XML operators. Less Code written = less code to maintan = faster time to market.Less code to parse...?

Web.xml problem in Enterprise Manager 10g

I got an error while deploying to Enterprise Manager 10g
My platform: Windows XP
OC4J 9.0.4
Enterprise Manager 10g
And I even have the web.xml in the correct directory. i.e
cpd.ear
./META-INF/application.xml
./cpd-ejb.jar/WEB-INF/web.xml
./cpd-webapp.war/WEB-INF/web.xml
./cpd-webapp.war/WEB-INF/classes
The error I get while deploying on a Enterprise Manager 10g is:
Invalid J2EE application file specified - Jar file: :\WINNT\TEMP\jar47575.tmp is missing its standard xml descriptor located at WEB-INF/web.xml
Incidently the *.ear file built by my fellow's machine is deploying perfectly. I've compared the directories n useful files of both the *.ears down to the very last bit n they are the same.
I can imagine that guys with only high IQ can solve this mystery

The above message is a duplicate of another message by Sim.
web.xml problem in Enterprise Manager 10g

About xml and null values in 10g

Hi, I have an UCM GetFile webservice component wich receives 4 arguments, two of them are null values (rendition and extraPops), and the xml request generated by obpm is:
<GetFileByName xmlns="http://www.stellent.com/GetFile/">
<dDocName>V_123410</dDocName>
<revisionSelectionMethod>latestReleased</revisionSelectionMethod>
<rendition/>
<extraProps/>
</GetFileByName>The problem is: On UCM web service, an empty tag like <rendition/> is treated like a "empty string" value, instead of a null value, and then the response i get isn't the expected.
What I want do to is change this behavior, and when I put null values in requests, the obpm should not write those tags. Is that possible?
Should be like that:
<GetFileByName xmlns="http://www.stellent.com/GetFile/">
<dDocName>V_123410</dDocName>
<revisionSelectionMethod>latestReleased</revisionSelectionMethod>
</GetFileByName>Thanks!

Hi,
I have question regarding aggregates. It's possible to read data from BW aggregates? We have webi reports on a SAP BW multi cube and we would like to optimize retriving query.
>> Because you are using the BW Query as the source all the items that you have done so far in terms of aggregation, indexing, ... is all valid and there are no specific steps required to leverage it with Web Intelligence. Make sure the aggregates are "correct" meansing that they do reflect what you are asking for in the Web Intelligence query panel
How can we filter in webi query null (#) values. If we create condition that some variabe is diffrent from # we still get null (#) values in report.
>> You should be able to create a variable. in case you tried that already could you be more specific ?

How to run an XML Report from Oracle Forms 10G

Hello Friends,
I am in need of showing a xml report output through a button press trigger in Oracle Forms10G.
I have designed the report in XML Publisher and the report looks fine.I found few scripts useful in running the Oracle Report from Oracle forms10G like Run_Report_Object.But I am not aware of any script that could run a XML report and show the output directly from a Form.
All I want is to run a XML report from an Oracle Form with a button press trigger and show the output in an html version.
Can this be achieved?
If so, Kindly advise as this is an immediate work.
Regards,
Badrul.

Hi,
If I am not wrong the XML publisher is same as BI publisher ...
There is one document which explains how to integrate using web service
You want to check this
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/xml-publisher/docs/Forms_BIP_v22.pdf
or you can also try web.show_document ..

XML Editor capable of decoding iTunes "Location" key?

I'm looking for an XML editor that will allow me to select all entries in the iTunes Music Library XML file with the same Location key, and search and replace those files so all of them become part of the same playlist folder. This is using iTunes 8.2.1 on Mac OS X 10.6. Would this be possible with any XML editor that anyone is aware of?
