XML Digester helper

if you are using Java and apache commons Digester to parse data from XML, this is tool you should try.
There's no learning curve, you can use the generated classes directly without any difficaulties--only digester lib is needed to support it in runtime.
http://xmlhelper.sourceforge.net
it automatically generates necessary java classes and statements to parse XML to java object. it helps to do what you ususally must do by manual(painful...).
After the developing, later I know this concept is called java xml binding--as you can see many discusses in the forum. There're several tools available now. but
mine is for digester processing code generating, so you still can have a try on it.
It's open source and welcome whoever interested in to join into the project
Anyone who is familiar with schema is welcomed to contribute more in this tool.
I hate the schame from my first look at it, why people always make the world so complex? why people are mad on XML, I don't think XML is suitable to do so many things people are trying to let it do, such as XML database:(, crazy

hi,dubwai,
Thank you for the interest.
some of the generation options are available, you can find the GUI on the web page and make a try after downloading it. it's simple.
It's now a very simple utility to help me handle XML using digester in my work. I developed this tool mainly
because I'm tired to write tedious and repeated codes to process each XML file given to me.
Then I find it helpful on this purpose. so I put it on the web as an open source project. I hope some programmers like me who hating to write XML processing code can make benefit from it, also share to
make it more powerful and flexible to use.
I am not intending to offer a complex one. the one that really help in some fields is the best. if somebody
is using digester, then maybe this tool will help them. Since it doesn't make its own framework(all the other tools do), so no any new api is requested to learn. that's really peace the heart.
If you have more idea, please go ahead an implement it. there's no limitation on a man's mind.

Reg: XML PUBLISHER HELP

Hi all,
I am building report using xml publisher. Problem i facing was ,
1. I created the template in RTF and attached to data definition
for eg: my rtf is
sno item quantity price ( I created this field in table structure and mapped to xml data)
Total Price ( this also i am getting from data definition)
The below is sample constant sentence for my client and typed just below Total Price ( field i mentioned above)
Inspected By Approved By
1)
________________________________ 1)________________________________ Store Incharge : ______________________
2)
________________________________ 2) ________________________________ Received : _______________________
3)
________________________________ 3 ________________________________ Prepared By : _______________________
NOTE : ABOVE MENTIONED LINES ARE CONSTANT ONE.
2. When i ran the report, if my data definition return 5 lines means , i am getting PDF output Correctly in single page (1st page)
3) If my data definition returns lines more than 8 lines means, I am getting PDF output with Table structure values with item, in 1 st page and Constant sentence in 2nd page of PDF
4) If my data definition returns lines between 5 and 8 means, I am getting PDf output with table structure values with item and some of Constant sentence of my client in 1 st page and few of the constanst sentence in 2nd page.
Actually my need
Even if the data definitions exceeds more than 5 lines the constant sentence should be placed either in the first page or in the next page based on the no. of lines in the data definition.
How to resolve this... any approach most welcome. Wat changes i have to make.

Hi Shruti,
You can start with the BI publisher page on OTN http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/xml-publisher/index.html.
Check out the tutorials (Oracle by Example). There's lot of good information out there. Check out the BI publisher guide here:http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/xml-publisher/xmlpdocs.html
Search the forum or post questions about any specific questions you may have about formatting numbers and dates.
Hope this helps.
Thanks!

XML Publisher Help

Hi,
We currently have a payslip report that has been developed using Oracle reports, but for this to run we have to change our NLS_LANG setting from UTF8 to WE8ISO8859P1.
The problem with this is to apply patches Oracle have told us we need to have the NLS_LANG set to UTF8.
As a result Oracle have said that:
The only available workaround for generating PDF on a UTF8 character set instance is to install and utilize the XML Publisher product or upgrade to E-Business Suite to Release 12.
We don't have any plans to upgrade to Release 12, so I am looking to use XML Publisher. I have a couple of questions:
Is this an add-on?
Where is the best place to obtain navigation guides and tutorials to teach myself this?
I have had a look at some of the pre-defined templates already and I am not sure how to create my own rtf file so that my required fields are passed to the template.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Many Thanks
Martin

smita

since Value is within the CDATA tag...You see a "CDATA tag", as you call it, in your XML, but the parser strips that all off and normalizes it to an ordinary string. So writing
<![CDATA[public]]>
is exactly the same as writing
public
and the parser treats them identically. So identically, in fact, that there is no way for you to find out whether CDATA was used at all.
Sorry, that doesn't answer your actual question, but hopefully it prevents you looking in the wrong direction.

Not quite sure what you want to know about it.
If you want a code review of it, I can tell you it's very poor code, because that's not how to generate XML data in Oracle. Oracle has built in XML functionality for generating such data, and doesn't require hard-coding XML tags.
Here's the Oracle documentation...

XML Gurus: help with cloning a node without using clone!

Dear all,
I have to copy one piece of XML from one part of the document to another. Unfortunately I cannot simply do a copy and paste:
Node nodeLeaf = nodeChild.cloneNode(true);
nodeAncestor.appendChild(nodeLeaf);
because some fragments of the nodeLeaf mustn't be copied (depending on the node value)
So I cannot make a deep clone of the leaf.
I have to make a clone of nodeLeaf by myself. (Copying its child with a recursive function)
I have built a recursive function but I cannot understand why it doesn't work correclty (text values are skipped and also some pieces of the xml aren't copied correclty)
// Passing the full leaf and a leaf with only the first tag, under which I clone manually the nodes.
Node copyNode = appendNodes(nodeLeaf, nodeLeaf.cloneNode(false));
private Node appendNodes(Node node, Node copyNode) {
NodeList kids = node.getChildNodes();
int length = kids.getLength();
if (kids != null) {
for (int ii = 0; ii < length; ii++) {
Node nodeKid = kids.item(ii);
copyNode.appendChild(nodeKid.cloneNode(false));
appendNodes(nodeKid,nodeKid);
return copyNode;
Anybody can give me a help ?
thanks a lot
Francesco

Here are a couple of suggestions:
1) General stuff.
NodeList kids = node.getChildNodes(); will always generate a NodeList. It may have no entries, but there is no need to check for if (kids != null). Your for loop will do nothing if the length is zero.
2) You need to change your code as follows:
for (int ii = 0; ii < length; ii++)
   Node nodeKid = kids.item(ii);
   Node newOutputNode = nodeKid.cloneNode(false);
   copyNode.appendChild(newOutputNode);
   appendNodes(nodeKid,newOutputNode);

Flash XML file help

I am trying to add multiple flash files to my website...the
only way these seem to work is if the swf and corresponding xml
file are all on the root of the website directory. I would have
liked to organize them into files to sort.
My problem is that many of these flash files (mainly
purchased) have the same xml file, so I cannot use these together
on the root. Thus, I need to either rename in the flash the xml
file or figure out how to put into folders...please help!
-Josh

ANSWER: I figured it out myself. I am just replying to let
everybody else know how I fixed it. I had the full URL in the load
request and apparently some Flash players don't like this. I put a
link to the file without the domain name and everybody is working
fine. The load function, Flash, or something could not resolve the
domian correctly and could not find the XML file. I was not getting
a request for the file from the Flash movie so I knew it had to be
soemthing in Flash.

XML Invoice - help with Tax Summary

I've been tasked to modify an already modded XML Invoice using XMLP. I need to add a Tax Summary block at the bottom, showing the breakout of the tax codes and amounts charged on the invoice.
I've played around with it, but so far I can only get the first tax line to show up. I can't get the others. I need to insert a conditional, but I don't know how or where.
Has anyone run into anything like this before?
This probably isn't the best problem summary... but if you could help I'd appreciate it!

Hi,
It sounds like you need to use a for-each to show each of your tax lines. If you do not have the for-each XMLP will only show the first tax line that is hits in the XML Output.
Would suggest that you take a quick look at the XMLP User Guide documentation for more information on how to use for-each.
Let me know if this does not solve your problem, or if you are still struggling.
Regards,
Cj

Hi,
This is my file adapter wsdl file:
<definitions
name="fileAdapter"
targetNamespace="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/"
xmlns:tns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/"
xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/" >
<types>
<schema attributeFormDefault="qualified" elementFormDefault="qualified"
targetNamespace="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:FILEAPP="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/">
<element name="InboundFileHeaderType">
<complexType>
<sequence>
<element name="fileName" type="string"/>
<element name="directory" type="string"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
</element>
</schema>
</types>

<message name="InboundHeader_msg">
<part element="tns:InboundFileHeaderType" name="inboundHeader"/>
</message>
</definitions>
So , should I use http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/ as my targetNamespace?
for example:
<xs:schema targetNamespace="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/"
xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
elementFormDefault="qualified">
Thanks

XML Newbie - Help Processing Files!

I'm not exactly sure if "process" is the right word, so I'll describe what I mean. There are two XML files (http://xml.pinnaclesports.com/xmlfeed.asp and http://208.138.39.112/XMLLineFiles/Baseball.xml) that are constantly updated online, and I want to be able to compare certain numbers in the two files.
Problem is, I really have no clue where to begin. I've heard that you can import XML into Microsoft Excel, but it can only refresh once every minute. Ideally I'd be able to compare the files almost constantly (like every 5 seconds or something). What are my other options? I don't really know any computer programming (besides a minimal amount of C), so I would really appreciate any help, just pointing me in the right direction.
Thanks for any help!

Your best option would be to hire a programmer to do that work.
It's possible you could spend a few months learning the skills, but why bother when you could hire a programmer who could get it done in a day?
By the way, refreshing once every minute is what you want to do, not every five seconds. Besides the fact that it took me at least 15 seconds just to download those two pages, one of them says
"2. Do not read the feed more than one times per minute."

Hi,
if you just need to extract one element (?), you could use iXML : interface if_ixml_document contains method find_from_path_ns , to which you may pass the path to your element (and pass the namespace prefix too), which is :
/SOAP_FAULT/s:Envelope/s:Body/s:Fault/s:Reason
