XML File from SQL Query

Question

I have created XML File from Query using below function:-
select dbms_xmlgen.getxml('
select * from tblreports where rownum<=1') from dual;
"(CLOB) <?xml version="1.0"?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<REPORTID>preRES0011</REPORTID>
<ALIAS>Date wise Summary of pins Report</ALIAS>
<ACTIVE>Y</ACTIVE>
<TITLE>Date wise Summary of pins Report</TITLE>
<QUERY>select tsb.month1,
count(SIDNUMBER)GENERATED,
sum(case WHEN SERIALSTATUSID=&apos;SRS01&apos; THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)NotAllocated,
SUM(CASE WHEN SERIALSTATUSID=&apos;SRS02&apos; or SERIALSTATUSID=&apos;SRS03&apos; or SERIALSTATUSID=&apos;SRS05&apos; THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)ALLOCATED,
SUM(CASE WHEN SERIALSTATUSID=&apos;SRS02&apos; or SERIALSTATUSID=&apos;SRS01&apos; THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)NOTASSIGNEDTORESELLER,
SUM(CASE WHEN SERIALSTATUSID=&apos;SRS03&apos; THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)READYTOACTIVATE,
sum(CASE WHEN SERIALSTATUSID=&apos;SRS05&apos; THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)ACTIVATED,
sum(CASE WHEN SERIALSTATUSID=&apos;SRS06&apos; THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)Terminated,
sum(CASE WHEN SCRAPSTATUSID=&apos;CST01&apos; THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)scraped,
sum(CASE WHEN LOCKSTATUSID=&apos;CST01&apos; THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)locked,
NULL,
     NULL,
     NULL,
     NULL,
     NULL,
NULL,
NULL     
from (SELECT TO_CHAR(CREATEDATE,&apos;DD-MON-YYYY&apos;)MONTH1 ,PINUSAGEMODEID,SERIALBATCHID,SERIALIDCOUNT,CREATEDATE FROM TBLMSERIALBATCH )TSB,
tblmserial ts
where TSB.SERIALBATCHID=ts.SERIALBATCHID
and to_char(TSB.CREATEDATE,&apos;MON-YYYY&apos;)=&apos;$1&apos;
GROUP BY TSB.MONTH1
order by TO_DATE(MONTH1,&apos;dd-mon-yyyy&apos;) DESC</QUERY>
<CONNECTIVITYID>C0001</CONNECTIVITYID>
<INPUTREQUIRED>Y</INPUTREQUIRED>
<INPUTNAME>Month</INPUTNAME>
<CREATEDATE>30-JAN-10</CREATEDATE>
<LASTMODIFIEDDATE>22-FEB-10</LASTMODIFIEDDATE>
<CREATEDBY>reportadmin</CREATEDBY>
<LASTMODIFIEDBY>reportadmin</LASTMODIFIEDBY>
<TITLEPARAM>Y</TITLEPARAM>
<SUBTITLE>Date wise Summary of pins Report For &amp;1</SUBTITLE>
<ELEMENTTYPEID>AET002</ELEMENTTYPEID>
<REPORTTYPEID>RTP01</REPORTTYPEID>
<SORTFIELD>Disable</SORTFIELD>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
But in that it is taking '&apos;' for ' ' instead of '$1' it is taking &apos;$1&apos;
how to keep ' ' in XML file instead of &apos?

Answer 1

You can use bcp with query out option
use your above query as the source query and use queryout option after specifying destination as your required local file path (specify extension as .xml)
