Xml file to table script

Hi all,
I would be thanks you and greatful if someone can help me to create a table script.
I have an XML file with PK and FK relationship.
I also have a DTD file.
I want to create tables in Oracle Database from XML or DTD file.
Thanks in Advance
Saaz

You might want to take a look at registerSchema (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_xmlsch.htm#sthref9696) with genTables set to TRUE. This would let you use the DTD to create a table structure within Oracle. This may or may not be what you are looking for but you didn't provide many details.
That's 10.2 documentation so use the edition for your version of Oracle

How can i load Client side XML file to Table

Hi,
How can i load the all the XML files (near 10,000 files) available in client machine to the XML table .
I did try with directrory list in the Webutility demo form, but when the number of file is near to 1,500 its giving error.
Please suggest the best method to implement my requirements.
1. XML fies are in a folder in end users machine(Windows OS)
2. I need to load all the XML files to table (Oracle Database is in Unix)
I am using forms 10g
Thanks in advance.
Rizly

Hi,
What is the error you are getting when you reach 1,500 records? Can you post it? You mentioned you are using the webutil to load them. How you are loading? From the client machine you are loading to the database directly? Can you post the code you are using for that?

Help needed badly Insert text data from xml files into tables

Hi all, I have asked to do insertion of text from a xml file into tables upon receiving using pro*c. i've done quite an amount of research on xml parser in c but there wasn't much information for mi to use for implementation...
Guys don't mind helping me to clarify few doubts of mine...
1. Where can i get the oracle xml parser libs? Is it included when i installed oracle 8i?
2. Is there any tutorials or help files for xml parser libs where i can read up?
I need the xml parser to recognise the tags, followed by recognising the text after the tags.
eg. xml format
<studentID> 0012 </studentID>
<student> john </student>
<studentID> 0013 </studentID>
<student> mary </student>
text willl be inserted into tables like this:
studentID | student
0012 | john
0013 | mary
by the way i'm using oracle 8i on HP-UX. Thanks in advance.

I can answer one of of your questions at least
1. Where can i get the oracle xml parser libs? Is it included when i installed oracle 8i?You need the XML XDK. You can use http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/xml/xdkhome.html as your starting point. I believe the 9i version works for 8i.
I have no pro*c experience so I can't offer any other suggestions regarding how to do this in pro*c.

Using XML file in Java script to create Google Map

Hello,
I work for a non-profit in San Diego as a GIS Specialist. I have had to teach myself about some scripting to create some dynamic maps, but I am still very limited in my skills, so I have had to explore the internet in order to discover various tutorials and examples that have led me on a positive path.
Right now I am working on a Google Mash-Up that will incorporate over 14,000 records, which will appear as separate markers that will have pop-up info bubbles with additional info inside (using html), once the marker is clicked.
Here is the XML script example that is used in the tutorial I am following:
<markers>
<marker lat="43.65654" lng="-79.90138" html="Some stuff to display in the<br>First Info Window"
label="Marker One" />
<marker lat="43.91892" lng="-78.89231" html="Some stuff to display in the<br>Second Info Window"
label="Marker Two" />
<marker lat="43.82589" lng="-79.10040" html="Some stuff to display in the<br>Third Info Window"
label="Marker Three" />
</markers>
...and this is how it looks when the file is retrieved by the java script and mapped: http://econym.googlepages.com/example_map3.htm
This is the java script that creates the Google Map. I have emboldened the section of the script that retrieves the data and parses it to create the markers:

Here is my delima--
This is the xml format that I need to use because it can accept the rest of my excel file and loop it through the 14,000+ records to create a functioning xml file. This is just a sample (2 records) of the larger file:

The "Marker" variable instructs Google Maps to label the marker with a particular color. I will be so grateful to the person(s) that helps me get through this wall that I have been hitting for a long time. It's very difficult without having the luxury of peers who know about these types of issues.
Thank you!!

Here is the relationship: They both contain geographic coordinates that produce a point on a map. I will use the rest of the information in the second xml file (company name, address, link, etc.) to produce the information for the bubble that will pop up once the marker is clicked.
My problem is that I need to try to keep the second xml file in a relatively similar format, so the rest of my records will still be accepted. If I had a smaller amount of records I could place them directly into the javascript, but because there are so many records, I need to use an xml file that can be retrieved by the java script. I chose to use the second type of xml file because I can easily copy and past the 14,000+ records that are now in excel document.
After the xml issue is corrected I need to rework the javascript that is now emboldened so that it will read the new xml file correctly. I included the first xml file so that the readers will understand what type of xml format is currently being used to produce the markers in the tutorial map.

Create XML file from table data

Dear All,
with dataservice 4.0, I want to create an XML file from a table data.
Table have a single column but more record, for example:
0001000488;100;EUR;
0001000489;200;EUR;
0001000450;300;EUR;
My desired XML output:
<Data>
0001000488;100;GBP;
0001000489;200;EUR;
0001000450;300;EUR;
</Data>
I try with a sample query but the sistem write only the last record in XML file:
<Data>
0001000450;300;EUR;
</Data>
Can everyone help me?
Thank in advance.

Hello
That is a very simple (also odd) XML document structure, and as such doesn't require use of the XML target. It can be easily acheived by writing a normal file with a header and footer, which is acheived using a row_generation and a query to generate the hard coded open and close tags.

Importing content of XML file to table(s)

I am looking for a way to import updates passed via XML file to a three tables.
In IBM Domino it was facilitated while using DOMParser class.
Does JDeveloper have a class or method for updating tables from XML file?

To import a XML document to a dataabse table:
1. Add <Oracle10g>/jdbc/lib/ojdbc14.jar, <Oracle10g>/jdbc/lib/servlet.jar, <XDK>/lib/xmlparserv2.jar, <XDK>/lib/xdb.jar and classes12dms.jar to Classpath.
2. Create a table in Oracle database 10g, which includes columns for each of the element tags in the XML document.
3. Create a connection with the database.
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
Connection conn =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@<host>:<port>:<SID>",
"<user>","<password>");
4. Create a OracleXMLSave class object.
OracleXMLSave oracleXMLSave =new OracleXMLSave(conn, "<table>");
<table> is the database table.
5. Set the tag for the row enclosing element.
oracleXMLSave.setRowTag("<row-tag>");
Each <row-tag> tag in the example XML document corresponds to a database column.
6. Import the XML document to database:
oracleXMLSave.insertXML(oracleXMLSave.getURL("file://c:/input.xml"));
7. If the XML document has attributes apply an XSLT to convert the attributes to elements.

Moving xml file from table stored as clob to table stored as binary

We have an xml file we are trying to move from a 10g database to 11gR2. The 11gR2 table is stored as binary, and when we try to insert the row into this table across a dblink from the 10g database the table locks and the system will not complete the transaction. I am wondering if this has something to do with the way the files are stored?

This would be better in the {forum:id=34} forum. Also include the full version of the 10g DB and the SQL being used and which DB it is running on.

Generate XML File from table

How to generate XML file from a table without using UTL_FILE that too in local machine...

You downloaded the wrong XML Parser!
XSQL requires Java Parser. Well, there's a copy included with the XSQL package so you actually don't need to do another download.
You really don't need XSQL if you just want a XML file from DB, you just needed a XML SQL Utility. Download that and run the samples.

Generating XML File with Table data...

Hi All,
Bear with me, with my Oracle XML knowledge,,,
we have Oracle 8i ( Relaease 3) as our database, and managegement want to have XML type of Text file, with respect to data in the Customer Table. Expected XML tags would be the Column Names of the Table.
Table has three columns,, Name, Address, Telephone.
So desired XML file looks like below:
<Name>John Hunter</Name><Address> City Road, London</Address><Telephone>1223223</Telephone>
If I deceided to do this task using PL/SQL, how could I start it,,,, All comments are welcome, this is the first time that I am going to generate this type of file ,,,

Hi Chandana,
You can check out the DBMS_XMLQUERY package for this purpose. It provides XMLType functionality in Oracle 8i. You can access the documentation for the same at:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/appdev.920/a96612/d_xmlque.htm#ARPLS066
If you happen to have access to Oracle 9i, then you can use XMLType Views provided with XML DB for your requirement.
Thanks

Load an XML file into table(s)

Hi ,
I have to load data from an xml file into an Oracle DB but I never used this king of process before. The purpose is to use as much as possible Oracle standard features ( stored procedures , functions , API's ).
Can someone explain me in simple explanations how to do it ? Thanks in advance for your help.
The XML must not be stored in the database , only the final tables
Values can be inserted , updated , or deleted from the final tables
Here are the versions of the tools I am using :
Oracle RDBMS : 10.2.0.4.0
Oracle Applications : 11.5.10.2
Toad : 9.5.0.31
SQL Plus : 8.0.6.0.0
The header of the xsd :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
- 
- <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="http://www.w3schools.com" targetNamespace="http://www.w3schools.com" elementFormDefault="qualified">
An extract of the xml :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
- <GraydonBeDialogue>
<TransactionCode>RTB</TransactionCode>
- <Table ClassTable="Country">
- <TableEntry>
<TableLanguage>N</TableLanguage>
<TableCode>AD</TableCode>
<TableValue>Andorra</TableValue>
</TableEntry>
- <TableEntry>
<TableLanguage>N</TableLanguage>
<TableCode>AE</TableCode>
<TableValue>Verenigde Arabische Emiraten</TableValue>

<TableLanguage>N</TableLanguage>
<TableCode>S</TableCode>
<TableValue>Doorgehaald bij de arbeidsrechtbank</TableValue>
</TableEntry>
</Table>
</GraydonBeDialogue>
The result I would have :
Two tables ( Country and Summons ) , each containing 3 columns ( TableLanguage , TableCode , TableValue ) :
Table Country : TableLanguage TableCode TableValue
N AD Andorra
N AE Verenigde Arabische Emiraten
Table Summons : TableLanguage TableCode TableValue

How to load XML file to table (non-XML) with SQL*Loader -- issue with nulls

I have been attempting to use SQL*Loader to load an XML file into a "regular" Oracle table. All fields work fine, unless a null is encountered. The way that nulls are represented is shown below:
<PAYLOAD>
<FIELD1>ABCDEF</FIELD1>
<FIELD2/>
<FIELD3>123456</FIELD3>
</PAYLOAD>
In the above example, FIELD2 is a null field and that is the way it is presented. I have searched everywhere and have not found how I could code for this. The issue is that if FIELD2 is present, it is coded like: <FIELD2>SOMEDATA</FIELD2>, but the null is represented as <FIELD2/>. Here is a sample of the control file I am using to attempt the load -- very simplistic, but works fine when fields are present:
load data
infile 'testdata.xml' "str '<PAYLOAD>'"
TRUNCATE
into table DATA_FROM_XML
FIELD1 ENCLOSED BY '<FIELD1>' AND '</FIELD1>',
FIELD2 ENCLOSED BY '<FIELD2>' AND '</FIELD2>',
FIELD3 ENCLOSED BY '<FIELD3>' AND '</FIELD3>')
What do I need to do to account for the way that nulls are presented? I have tried everything I could glean from the web and the documentation and nothing has worked. Any help would be really appreciated.

I hadn't even got that far. can you direct me to where the docs are to import data that is stored within xml but that you don't need any xml functionality, that just happens to be the format the data is stored in? thx

Xml file to tables

Hello,
I am trying to insert a XML file into the tables. When I read the XSU documentation, I saw a command line utility java OracleXML.
In a book I read, it said before one uses java OracleXML commmand line utility, the XML file has to be converted to another XML file using XSLT for OracleXMLSave to recognize the XML file. This was because OracleXMLSave will know to insert the XML file into the tables only if the XML was generated by OracleXMLquery.
But in the Oracle XML documentation, it didn't explicitly say anything about converting using XSLT to do the loading of the XML file into the tables. But the examples in the site used only the XML file which was generated from the tables to load them into the table again.
Please clarify me on this point.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Using the Oracle XML DB Webdav are is one method as it acts like a file system, but essentially get's the documents directly into the database so they can be queried through the resouce_view.
Other methods involve reading the file as if it's a CLOB and then using XMLTYPE constructor to change that CLOB to an XMLTYPE which can then be stored as that datatype in the database or processed as you need.
The best place to look is over in the XML DB forum, which has it's own FAQ detailing various best practices for all sort of XML stuff, including reading XML files and shredding them into relational tables etc.

How to update XML file through UCCX script ?

Hi,
I have an UCCX script with MENU step. One of the step is for technical support team. When caller chose this step, information about date and time of the call and calling number should be recorded on a XML file located on the web server.
This XML is uploaded into the web server , but I don't know how to update it through UCCX script.
Here is how the XML file looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<rss version="2.0">
<channel>
<title>CALL LOG</title>
<link></link>
<description>Support Call log</description>
<ttl>1</ttl>
<item>
<title>2011-08-24 14:56:39 - 00044 123 123 123</title>
<link></link>
<description></description>
</item
</channel>
</rss>
Any idea?
Thanks,

Hi
The 'keyword transform' step uses the template XML file to generate the actual XML file you want to post... the template would be a plain text file uploaded to the repository, and would look like so:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
CALL LOG
Support Call log
1
%%calldatetime%% - %%clinumber%%
Now - if you had that bit of XML, with correct time/number in it - have you verified know that you can definately just post that XML to a certain URL to get it on the server? Check with whoever manages that server exactly what you need to do to get it to appear - then worry about how you do that from UCCX. It may not be a matter of posting up that XML, you may need it in a different format or something..
