"PLS-00172: string literal too long" When Writing XML file into a Table

Hi.
I'm using DBMS_XMLStore to get a XML file into a db table. See the example below, I'm using that for my PL/SQL format. Problem is that because there're too many XML elements that I use in "xmldoc CLOB:= ...", I get "PLS-00172: string literal too long" error.
Can someone suggest a workaround?
THANKS!!!
DECLARE
insCtx DBMS_XMLStore.ctxType;
rows NUMBER;
xmldoc CLOB :=
'<ROWSET>
<ROW num="1">
<EMPNO>7369</EMPNO>
<SAL>1800</SAL>
<HIREDATE>27-AUG-1996</HIREDATE>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<EMPNO>2290</EMPNO>
<SAL>2000</SAL>
<HIREDATE>31-DEC-1992</HIREDATE>

</ROWSET>';
BEGIN
insCtx := DBMS_XMLStore.newContext('scott.emp'); -- get saved context
DBMS_XMLStore.clearUpdateColumnList(insCtx); -- clear the update settings
-- set the columns to be updated as a list of values
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdateColumn(insCtx,'EMPNO');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdateColumn(insCtx,'SAL');
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdatecolumn(insCtx,'HIREDATE');
-- Now insert the doc.
-- This will only insert into EMPNO, SAL and HIREDATE columns
rows := DBMS_XMLStore.insertXML(insCtx, xmlDoc);
-- Close the context
DBMS_XMLStore.closeContext(insCtx);
END;

You ask where am getting the XML doc. Well, am not
getting the doc itself.I either don't understand or I disagree. In your sample code, you're certainly creating an XML document-- your local variable "xmldoc" is an XML document.
DBMS_XMLSTORE package needs
to know the canonical format and that's what I
hardcoded. Again, I either don't understand or I disagree... DBMS_XMLStore more or less assumes the format of the XML document itself-- there's a ROWSET tag, a ROW tag, and a then whatever column tags you'd like. You can override what tag identifies a row, but the rest is pretty much assumed. Your calls to setUpdateColumn identifies what subset of column tags in the XML document you're interested in.
Later in code I use
DBMS_XMLStore.setUpdateColumn to specify which
columns are to be inserted.Agreed.
xmldoc CLOB :=
'<ROWSET>
<ROW num="1">
<KEY_OLD> Smoker </KEY_OLD>
<KEY_NEW> 3 </KEY_NEW>
<TRANSFORM> Specified </TRANSFORM>
<KEY_OLD> Smoker </KEY_OLD>
<VALUEOLD> -1 </VALUEOLD>
EW> -1 </VALUENEW>
<DESCRIPTION> NA </DESCRIPTION>
</ROW>
ROWSET>';This is your XML document. You almost certainly want to be reading this from the file system and/or have it passed in from another procedure. If you hard-code the XML document, you're limited to a 32k string literal, which is almost certainly causing the error you were reporting initially.
As am writing this I'm realizing that I'm doing this
wrong, because I do need to read the XML file from
the filesystem (but insert the columns
selectively)...What I need to come up with is a proc
that would grab the XML file and do inserts into a
relational table. The XML file will change in the
future and that means that all my 'canonical format'
code will be broken. How do I deal with anticipated
change? Do I need to define/create an XML schema in
10g if am just inserting into one relat. table from
one XML file?What does "The XML file will change in the future" mean? Are you saying that the structure of the XML document will change? Or that the data in the XML document would change? Your code should only need to change if the structure of the document changes, which should be exceptionally uncommon and would only be an issue if you're adding another column that you want to work with, which would necessitate code changes.
I found an article where the issue of changing XML
file is dealt by using a XSL file (that's where I'd
define the 'canonical format'), but am having a
problem with creating one, because the source XML is
screwed up in terms of the format:
it's not <x> blah </x>
<x2> blah </x2>
x2="blah" x3="blah> ...etc
Can you point me in the right direction, please?You can certainly use something like the DBMS_XSLProcessor package to transform whatever XML document you have into an XML document in an appropriate format for the XMLStore package and pass that transformed XML document into something like your sample procedure rather than defining the xmldoc local variable with a hard-coded document. Of course, you'd need to write appropriate XSL code to do the actual transform.

Upload an XML file into the Internal table

Hi Guys,
I want to know, how to upload an xml file into the Internal table through ABAP programming

you just wanted to load the xml file into internal table (as a table of binary strings)or load the xml data mapped to itab row columns
for the first one you can simply use gui_upload
and for the second one you need to load the xml file using gui_upload and use XLST program to transform into an itab

How to upload XML file into the internal table in Webdynpro ABAP ?

Hi Friends,
I am not able to upload the XML file into ABAP,can you please help me in solving this issue with the help of source code.
Regards
Dinesh

Hi Dinesh,
Try go through this program which I had developed earlier. It takes as input an XML file and then breaks it down into name-value pairs of an intrnal table. You need to pass an XML file as input to this program. (I had hard coded the path for my XML file in it. You need to replace it with 1 of your own or you can just delete it and use the browse button to selet the file on your PC)

Collect data from a dynamic XML file into multiple internal tables

I need to convert the XML file into multiple internal tables. I tried many links and posts in SDN but still was facing difficulty in achieving this. Can some one tell me where I am going wrong.
My XML file is of the following type.It is very complex and the dynamice.
The following tags occur more than once in the XML file. The "I" and "L" tags and its child tags can occur ones or more than once for each XML file and it is not constant. i.e in one file they can occur 1 time and in another they can occur 100 times.
"I" and "L" are child tags of <C>

 <J>10</J>
 <K>EN</K>

<L>
 <J>20</J>
 <N>BB</N>
</L>
Tags <C> and <F> occur only ones for each XML file. <C> is the child tag of "A" and "F" is the child tag of <C>.
I need to collect <D>, <E> in one internal table ITAB.
I need to collect <G>, <H> in one internal table JTAB.
I need to collect <J>, <K> in one internal table KTAB.
I need to collect <J>, <N> in one internal table PTAB.
Below is the complete XML file.
?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>
<A>
 
 <C>
 <D>RED</D>
 <E>999</E>

With the help of SDN I am able to gather the values of <D> <E> in one internal table.
Now if I need to gather
<G>, <H> in one internal table JTAB.
<J>, <K> in one internal table KTAB.
<J>, <N> in one internal table PTAB.
I am unable to do. I am following XSLT transformation method. If some one has some suggestions. Please help.

Kindly help.

Hi Rammohan,
Thanks for the effort!
But I don't need to use GUI upload because my functionality does not require to fetch data from presentation server.
Moreover, the split command advised by you contains separate fields...f1, f2, f3... and I cannot use it because I have 164 fields. I will have to split into 164 fields and assign the values back to 164 fields in the work area/header line.
Moreover I have about 10 such work areas. so the effort would be ten times the above effort! I want to avoid this! Please help!
I would be very grateful if you could provide an alternative solution.
Thanks once again,
Best Regards,

How to convert xslt file into string

i'm writting a java program to use xslt to transform the xml file. i'm encountering the problem when i try to convert the xslt file into string. i've defined my utility class called 'XmlUtil' to carry out the operation of transform xml file through xslt. but in my main java program i need to convert both xml and xslt file into a string in order to input them in my function argument. my function argument is as follows:

I don't understand why you need load the XML and XLS files into a String. A Transformer can be constructed from a Source and there is a StreamSouce which can be constructed from an InputStream. The transform() method can take a Source as input and can produce a Result. There is no need to go near a String representation of either the input.

Load multiple parts of an XML file into one dynamic Text Field

Hi I am trying to load text from an external XML file into a dynamic text box. I have so far managed to load single parts of the XML file into a dynamic text field. I now want to be able to load different parts of the XML file (something similar to a string with appendText) into the same text Field.
I have so far managed to achive this using the String and append text properties, but would like to use XML file to do it instead.
Any tips please?
Thanks

In essence you can just do:
TextField.text = XML.node1 + XML.node2;

How to upload an XML file into another system

Hi friends,
I have a requirement where I need to upload an XML file into one system
which has been downloaded using another system.
I have tried using the method ' cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload'
to upload the file but it is going for dump.
I have used the method ' w_xml->import_from_file' also,
but it is also going for dump ,because both methods are using the same FM
' GUI_UPLOAD'.
Can any one suggest on this.

"Here is the Explaination for uploading the XML Format file to sap " through ABAP Program ....
1. Basically you simply have to convert the XML file into the proper IDoc format. There are many ways to achieve this. One solution would be to convert it externally to SAP, e.g. via VB Script or with an XSLT transformation. Or you use the built in SAP functions for importing an IDoc from an XML stream.
2. Uploading a file is either done via GUI_UPLOAD or via the usual way of reading a file from the application server (Open dataset. Read dataset) But what do you mean by "send to external system"? Do you want to convert an IDoc into XML? Then you simply define an XML port with WE21 to send the IDoc out.
Here is an example of code that loads an XML from file and posts it as an IDoc. Please keep in mind that the XML has to be in its canonical format as described in the interface repository: ifr.sap.com (choose the template of the desired IDoc from there as an example).
data: data_tab type table of char1024.
data: XML_STREAM type string.

C# Split xml file into multiple files

Below i have an xml file, in this file, i need to split this xml file into multiple xml files based on date column value,
suppose i have 10 records with 3 different dates then all unique date records should go into each file . for ex here i have a file with three dates my output should get 3 files while each file containing all records of unique date data. I didn't get any idea
to proceed on this, thats the reason am not posting any code.Needed urgently please
<XML>
<rootNode>
<childnode>
<date>2012-12-01</date>
<name>SSS</name>
</childnode>
<childnode>
<date>2012-12-01</date>
<name>SSS</name>
</childnode>
<childnode>
<date>2012-12-02</date>
<name>SSS</name>
</childnode>
<childnode>
<date>2012-12-03</date>
<name>SSS</name>
</childnode>
</rootNode>
</XML>

Here is full code:
using System.Xml.Linq;
class curEntity
public DateTime Date;
public string Name;
public curEntity(DateTime _Date, string _Name)
Date = _Date;
Name = _Name;
static void Main(string[] args)
XElement xmlTree = new XElement("XML",
new XElement("rootNode",
new XElement("childnode",
new XElement("date"),
new XElement("name")
string InfilePath = @"C:\temp\1.xml";
string OutFilePath = @"C:\temp\1_";
XDocument xmlDoc = XDocument.Load(InfilePath);
List<curEntity> lst = xmlDoc.Element("XML").Element("rootNode").Elements("childnode")
.Select(element => new curEntity(Convert.ToDateTime(element.Element("date").Value), element.Element("name").Value))
.ToList();
var unique = lst.GroupBy(i => i.Date).Select(i => i.Key);
foreach (DateTime dt in unique)
List<curEntity> CurEntities = lst.FindAll(x => x.Date == dt);
XElement outXML = new XElement("XML",
new XElement("rootNode")
foreach(curEntity ce in CurEntities)
outXML.Element("rootNode").Add(new XElement("childnode",
new XElement("date", ce.Date.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")),
new XElement("name", ce.Name)
outXML.Save(OutFilePath + dt.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd") + ".xml");

Import XML file into ABAP WD

Hi,
Is there any way to upload an XML file into ABAP WD?
I just saw a blog for Java WD.
<a href="/people/johann.marty/blog/2006/10/03/create-a-web-dynpro-tree-from-an-xml-file:///people/johann.marty/blog/2006/10/03/create-a-web-dynpro-tree-from-an-xml-file
Is there a similar facility in ABAP WD?
Regards,
Haresh.

hey u can do this by using CALL Transformation id.. command..
here is the example code where i wrote this to convert it DATA to XML format...it may help u..
DATA : BEGIN OF l_xml_tab OCCURS 0,
 a(100) TYPE c,
 END OF l_xml_tab.
DATA : xml_out TYPE string .
DATA : lw_xml_tab LIKE LINE OF l_xml_tab.
XML
CALL TRANSFORMATION id "('ID')
SOURCE tab = gt_outtab[]
RESULT XML xml_out.
Convert to TABLE
CALL FUNCTION 'HR_EFI_CONVERT_STRING_TO_TABLE'
 EXPORTING
 i_string = xml_out
 i_tabline_length = 100
 TABLES
 et_table = l_xml_tab.
OPEN DATASET p_lgfil1 FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
LOOP AT l_xml_tab INTO lw_xml_tab.
 TRANSFER lw_xml_tab TO p_lgfil1.
ENDLOOP.
CLOSE DATASET p_lgfil1.

Simple Transformation to deserialize an XML file into ABAP data structures?

I'm attempting to write my first simple transformation to deserialize
an XML file into ABAP data structures and I have a few questions.
My simple transformation contains code like the following
<tt:transform xmlns:tt="http://www.sap.com/transformation-templates"
 xmlns:pp="http://www.sap.com/abapxml/types/defined" >
<tt:type name="REPORT" line-type="?">
<tt:node name="COMPANY_ID" type="C" length="10" />
<tt:node name="JOB_ID" type="C" length="20" />
<tt:node name="TYPE_CSV" type="C" length="1" />
<tt:node name="TYPE_XLS" type="C" length="1" />
<tt:node name="TYPE_PDF" type="C" length="1" />
<tt:node name="IS_NEW" type="C" length="1" />
</tt:type>
<tt:root name="ROOT2" type="pp:REPORT" />
 <QueryResponse>
 <tt:loop ref="ROOT2" name="line">
 <QueryResponseRow>
 <CompanyID>
 <tt:value ref="$line.COMPANY_ID" />
 </CompanyID>
 <JobID>
 <tt:value ref="$line.JOB_ID" />
 </JobID>
 <ExportTypes>
 <tt:loop>
 <ExportType>
 I don't know what to do here (see item 3, below)
 </ExportType>
 </tt:loop>
 </ExportTypes>
 <IsNew>
 <tt:value ref="$line.IS_NEW"
 map="val(' ') = xml('false'), val('X') = xml('true')" />
 </IsNew>
 </QueryResponseRow>
 </tt:loop>
 </QueryResponse>
 </tt:loop>
1. In a DTD, an element can be designated as occurring zero or one
time, zero or more times, or one or more times. How do I write the
simple transformation to accommodate these possibilities?
2. In trying to accommodate the "zero or more times" case, I am trying
to use the <tt:loop> instruction. It occurs several layers deep in the
XML hierarchy, but at the top level of the ABAP table. The internal
table has a structure defined in the ABAP program, not in the data
dictionary. In the simple transformation, I used <tt:type> and
<tt:node> to define the structure of the internal table and then
tried to use <tt:loop ref="ROOT2" name="line"> around the subtree that
can occur zero or more times. But every variation I try seems to get
different errors. Can anyone supply a working example of this?
3. Among the fields in the internal table, I've defined three
one-character fields named TYPE_CSV, TYPE_XLS, and TYPE_PDF. In the
XML file, I expect zero to three elements of the form
<ExportType exporttype='csv' />
<ExportType exporttype='xls' />
<ExportType exporttype='pdf' />
I want to set field TYPE_CSV = 'X' if I find an ExportType element
with its exporttype attribute set to 'csv'. I want to set field
TYPE_XLS = 'X' if I find an ExportType element with its exporttype
attribute set to 'xls'. I want to set field TYPE_PDF = 'X' if I find
an ExportType element with its exporttype attribute set to 'pdf'. How
can I do that?
4. For an element that has a value like
<ErrorCode>123</ErrorCode>
in the simple transformation, the sequence
<ErrorCode> <tt:value ref="ROOT1.CODE" /> </ErrorCode>
seems to work just fine.
I have other situations where the XML reads
<IsNew value='true' />
I wanted to write
<IsNew>
 <tt:value ref="$line.IS_NEW"
 map="val(' ') = xml('false'), val('X') = xml('true')" />
 </IsNew>
but I'm afraid that the <tt:value> fails to deal with the fact that in
the XML file the value is being passed as the value of an attribute
(named "value"), rather than the value of the element itself. How do
you handle this?

Try this code below:
data l_xml_table2 type table of xml_line with header line.
W_filename - This is a Path.
if w_filename(02) = '
 open dataset w_filename for output in binary mode.
 if sy-subrc = 0.
 l_xml_table2[] = l_xml_table[].
 loop at l_xml_table2.
 transfer l_xml_table2 to w_filename.
 endloop.
 endif.
 close dataset w_filename.
else.
 call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download
 exporting
 bin_filesize = l_xml_size
 filename = w_filename
 filetype = 'BIN'
 changing
 data_tab = l_xml_table
 exceptions
 others = 24.
 if sy-subrc <> 0.
 message id sy-msgid type sy-msgty number sy-msgno
 with sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
 endif.

How to Import XML file into SAP B1

Dear All,
I have a scenario like,
I am receiving a XML file from a 3rd party application for the daily Creation,Update of Item Master,BP Master, Marketing Documents. I want to import this file into SAP B1 through its approp objects. I understand DTW has limitation in its file types (Semicolo,Tab,Comma,ODBC). How do i do this ? Please guide me.
Thanks,

Hy folks,
I´m frim Brasil and I've been studying the tool EFM (Eletronic File Manager) to learn more about it!
There I saw that we can extract to XML "any" infomation from the database we want, mainly through the GEP.
However, as I've seen, this Add-On can not import any XML file into SBO, unless for the BFP wich can be imported in conjunction with the BTHF Add-on.
So I ask: how is it possible to import XML data into SBO database? Is it possible to be done through the EFM? or it´s really necessary to write a code specifically to do that?
Besides, I know that de B1iSN fit to this necessity... but when I tried to use it, by the custom "object" for BP, for example, there are some data wich the mapping conteined in this custom "process" that can not be imported... I tried to understand how to map those other fields not imported by the custom but this has been dificult to me as I am a implementation consultant focused in administrative process not on development...
Could you please help me with this subject!
Thanks a lot,
Denis

How to retrieve data from xml file into obiee reports

Hi all,
I've got a situation here. A xml file is stored as blob in oracle database table. Now i need to retrieve data/info from that xml file into obiee reports. How am i supposed to proceed with this ?

I will go for a table function:
http://gerardnico.com/wiki/database/oracle/table_function
In two words, you can create a function that behave as a table. Then you create a function to pick up your xml, you parse it and you send back the rows.
I know that Oracle has also a library for XML files but I never use it until now.
Success
