XML file with multiple records

I have an XML data file that will look something like this (repeated possibly several hundred times):
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<A><V>Wake up to WonderWidgets!</V>
<C>Why are great</C>
</A>
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<A>Eric</A>
When I try to parse the code using the Echo03.java sample from the website, I get the following error: END_ELM: </>org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: XML declaration may only begin entities.

     at Echo03.main(Echo03.java:60)
Is there any way (short of actually reading the file and looking for the beginning of each record) that I can get the parser to do multiple stard and end documents or at least get it to read and parse all the entries in the file?
Thanks

Yout file should look something like this: <
?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<start>
<A><V>Wake up to WonderWidgets!</V>
<C>Why are great</C>
</A>
<A>Eric</A>
</start>
you can only have one root element ( e.g. <start> )

How to populate a form from an xml file with multiple records

I want to be able to create a single form that will add pages as needed based upon the number of records being imported from an xml file.
I have an IRS form that does this exactly, but I do not know how to re-create it. I entered data into the form, then exported that data to xml. Then I opened that xml file in excel and added more records (this is just an easy way to manage the xml data in a tabular form). Then I import the changed xml file into the IRS form and it adds as many pages as I have records. Perfect! Unfortunately, I cannot edit the form to examine the technique. It does not appear to be relying upon any additional local javascript files. It does use an 'add page' button which may suggest the form is using the template .spawn() technique, but when I try that in my own form, it gives me unique field names for each page which are then not consistent with the xml data. Hopefully someone can help me understand what I am missing.

did you want
<record>0
<data>"11.97.23.174/32"
<record>address <data>
<record>address <data>
<record>subnet <data>
<record>ip <data>"10.97.23.174"</data></record>

1 xml file to multiple xml files with 200 records in each

Hello Experts,
I have below scenario.
Please suggest me which might be the best approch to work on.
1) XML file to XML file
I will have 1 pretty huge XML file which i need to break in multiple XML files with 200 records each.
1) first approch i can have bpm in which i can split the file according to my requirement.
2) Second approch i can create 2 scenarios in which 1st scenario will pick up XML file and create multiple flat files with File content conversion. Second scenario will pick up all these flat files and create XML files.
2) XML file to XML file
Or i can have multiple files with 1 record per file and i need to merge in multiple XML files with 200 records in each.
So its kind of 1:N or M:N scenarios.
Please tell me which is might be better performance and design wise.
Or if you have any idea in any other way i can do this, then please reply as soon as possbile.
Please tell me if you have OS command for the same or some script to run or anything which i can implement.
Thanks,
Hetal

what is your senario? is it File to File?
You can use multi mapping concept without BPM. You can handle the 200 records per message logic in the multimapping.

Could some please help me with the above. I desparately need to move forward.

Insert Insert XML file into multiple records in Oracle Database

I would like to find out if it is possible to insert a single XML file into multiple records or tuples in a Oracle database table. I have a single XML file which is at multiple levels. The meta data for the levels are common and each level can have meta data of their own in addition. I do not have any meta data field which will uniquely determine whether the data belongs to Root level, Intermediate level or at the document level. Is there any way I can determine which level the meta data belongs to and thereby make a corresponding entry into the database table tuple? For example I could have an attribute called level which is going to be present only in the database table and not in the XML file. If level=1 then it corresponds to "Root" meta data, if level=2 then it corresponds to "Intermediate" level and if level=3 then it corresponds to meta data at document level. I need a way to calculate the value for level from the XML file and thereby insert the meta data element into a tuple in a single table in Oracle.

Hi,
extract your xml and then you can use insert all clause.
here's very small example on 10.2.0.1.0
SQL> create table table1(id number,val varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> create table table2(id number,val varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> insert all
2 into table1 values(id,val)
3 into table2 values(id2,val2)
4 select extractValue(x.col,'/a/id1') id
5        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/value') val
6        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/value2') val2
7        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/id2') id2
8 from (select xmltype('<a><id1>1</id1><value>a</value><id2>2</id2><value2>b</value2></a>') col from dual) x;
2 rows created.
SQL> select * from table1;
        ID VAL
         1 a
SQL> select * from table2;
        ID VAL
         2 b                                                                    Ants

Flat File with multiple record types (OWB 10.2.0.2)

Hi!
I`m using OWB 10.2.0.2 and I`m trying to load a flat file with multiple record types, using SQL LOADER.
In the flat file editor in the Record tab, I`ve set the type values and the corresponding record names like this:
Type Value Record Name
======== ===========
T TRAILER
0 DETAILS
1 DETAILS
2 DETAILS
When using this flat file in a mapping to load the data in a staging table, the generated code looks like this:
INTO TABLE TRAILER
TRUNCATE
REENABLE DISABLED_CONSTRAINTS
WHEN (1:1) = 'T'
INTO TABLE DETAILS
APPEND
REENABLE DISABLED_CONSTRAINTS
WHEN (1:1) = '0,1,2'
The above clause (WHEN (1:1) = '0,1,2') is wrong as I expect one "INTO TABLE..." clause for each record type.
Could this be a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks a lot for your help,
Yorgos

We`re using two target tables, one for the trailer record and the other for the details records.
We are facing this problem from the moment we upgraded from OWB 10.1 to OWB 10.2.0.2, so we think it must be something with the way the sql loader code is generated in the new version.
As our data sources are mainly flat files coming from mainframes, this is a huge problem for us. We even asked an expert in DW from Oracle to help us on this, but still haven`t found a solution.
Is there any workaround for this or should we forget sql loader and go with an external tables + custom PL/SQL code solution?
Your help is greatly appreciated Jean-Pierre.
Regards,
Yorgos

Splitting of a CSV File with Multiple Records into Multiple XML File

Dear All,
<b> I am doing a Scenario of CSV to XML Files. I am using BPM for the same. My incoming CSV File has got multiple records. I want to break this Multiple records into Multiple XML Files having one record each.</b>
Can someone suggest how can I break this rather Split this into Multiple XML Files.
Is Multimapping absoltely necesaary for this. Can't we do this without Multimapping. Can we have some workaround in the FCC parameters that we use in the Integration Directory.
Kindly reply ASAP. Thanks a lot to all in anticipation.
Pls Help.
Best Regards
Chakra and Somnath

Dear All,
I am trying to do the Multimapping, and have 0....unbounded also. Someways it is not working.
<b>
Smitha please tell me one thing...Assigning the Recordsets per Message to 1, does it mean that it will write multiple XML Files as I want.</b>
Also I am usinf Set to Read only. So once the File is read it becomes RA from A. Then will it write the other Records.
I have to use a BPM because there are certain dependencies that are there for the entire Process Flow. I cannot do without a BPM.
Awaiting a reply. Thanks a lot in anticipation.

How to generate xml file with multiple nodes using sqlserver as database in SSIS..

Hi ,
I have to generate the xml file using multiple nodes by using ssis and database is sqlserver.
Can some one guide me on to perform this task using script task?

Why not use T-SQL for generating XML? You can use FOR XML for that

XML file, with multiple customer records - post DEBMAS over Integr.Process

Hi all,
is it possible to map a single XML file message that contains multiple records for customer master to multiple messages ?
I know that it is possible to do a "multi IDOC " mapping but then the splitting of the messages is done by the IDOC adapter, not earlier.
I have to process every single customer master record by an integration process to check if its creation or change (and get the customer number).
When I try in the interface mapping to set the receiver to "0 to unbound" then also the message format of the sender requires two additional hierarchie levels "...message, message1" . My orginal file does not contain these tags.
Is XI not able to handle this easy requirement without making a university study out of it?
Thank you very much for your help
best regards
Hans

You need not worry about those tags to be in your file. Those are added while mapping is being executed. All that you need to do is use file content conversion in sender adapter and put your lookup logic in Integration Process and mapping..!!
You do not need a university degree, if you understadn the concepts..!!

Loading Hex Files with multiple records with each line starting with : record marker, how do I load this hex file into a front panel table ? thanks in advance, Jeff.

I have written a routine that loads a Hex file, checks for record marker,length,address etc then loads the data into a table on front panel. However, my routine only loads single record hex files. I need to be able to load multiple record files, I need to identify the ':' colon record marker start for each record in the hex file, I just can't see how to loop my routine so that all records with ':' prefix marker are loaded.

Jeff,
I'm not exactly sure of what you are trying to do. Is it possible you could post your code, or a screen shot of the diagram in question, so that I can get a better understanding, and possibly offer some assistance?
I am familiar with hex files, but not with the : marker separating records. This may be able to be solved with simple text parsing, and as I am not familiar with how you are retrieving and/or displaying the files, I require more information.
Thanks

Get MUTLIPLE output files for SINGLE input file with multiple records

Hi ,
I have source xml file which has multiple records in it and I want to get multiple seperate flat files for it.
this is my source structure
<root>
<Header1 fld1=1234 fld2="name1" fld3='SAP1"
fld4='000" fld5=0 fld6="sdn1"></header>...............no line items here
<Header2 fld1=123 fld2="name" fld3='SAP"
fld4='00" fld5=0 fld6="sdn" ><line fld7=value1 fld8=value2 fld9=value3 /line><line fld7=value4 fld8=value5 fld9=value6 /line></header>.....two line items here
<Header3 fld1=123 fld2="name" fld3='SAP"
fld4='00" fld5=0 fld6="sdn" ><line fld7=value7 fld8=value8 fld9=value9 /line></header>......one line item here
Header4 fld1=12345 fld2="name2" fld3='SAP2"
fld4='0006" fld5=01 fld6="sdn2"</header>.......no line items here
</root>
I am trying to get flat files as many time the <b>header</b> values occur that many target files should appear in the target.
like
file1:
1234name1SAP10000~sdn1
file2:
123nameSAp000~sdn
value1value2valu3
valu4value5value6
file3:
123namesap000~sdn
value7valu8value9
file4:
12345name2SAP2000601~SDN2
here I have 4 headers so i need to get 4 output files ,similarly for 'n' headers I need to get 'n' output flat files. the above mentioned source xml file is just one file,like that I might get somany sourc xml files which has similar structure in it.
and also it is important to get the line items,if exists to the header, for the corresponding headers.
how can I achieve this?do I need to use BPM or any mappings other than Graphical?
please suggest me.
thank you.
Babu
sorry,output file structure changed
Babu

Babu,

Note:
While creating Interface determination choose it as Enhanced/Extended
The Receiver Content conversion - For field separator and line separator give 'nl' , coz we concatenated all of them using ~ in mapping.
If you find any discrepancy in the above logic , please let me know.

Obtain Array from an XML file with Multiple Arrays

Hi,
So I have been struggling with this program I am making for the last few months but I am almost there. I have a program that creates multiple arrays and place them one after another in an xml file and each array has its own unique name. Now I would like to create a VI that takes this XML file and when the user inputs the specific array name they are looking for it goes into the xml file finds the entire array under that name and displays it in an output indictor to be viewed on the VI. Attached is a sample of my xml file and the VI that creates this xml file.
Thanks,

Here is a slightly different version. The one above reads from a file. This is how you would read from an already loaded XML string.

Positional Polling a file with multiple records at single line

Hi
I am trying to poll a file with positional read.It works fine with single record at single line.But how to solve the problem when there are multiple records at single line???How to delimit the records??

i have a file which contains emp records like empID,empName,Dept.And these records of fixed length.I need to poll this file wirh positional read.I used fixed length polling.It works fine when there is only 1 record at one line.But when 2 or more records on same line it takes first record correctly but could not understand the start of second record.
for ex
1 shital mktg
2 priya finance
it works when records are at separate line.
but another case is:
1 shital mktg 2 priya finance
how to delimit these records??

Load data from a file with multiple record types to a single table-sqlldr

We are using two datastores which refer to the same file. The file has 2 types of records header and detail.
h011234tyre
d01rey5679jkj5679
h011235tyrr
d01rel5678jul5688
d01reh5698jll5638
Can someone help in loading these lines from one file with only two data stores(not 2 separate files) using File to Oracle(SQLLDR) Knowledge Module.

Hi,
Unfortunately the IKM SQLDR doesn't have the "when" condition to be wrote at ctl file.
If you wish a simple solution, just add an option (drop me a email if you want a LKM with this)
The point is:
With a single option, you will control the when ctl clause and, for instance, can define:
1) create 2 datastores (1 for each file)
2) the first position will be a column at each datastore
3) write the when condition to this first column at the LKM in the interface.
Does it help you?

VSAM file with multiple record layouts (COBOL REDEFINES)

Hi. We're using Tuxedo 12c to migrate a COBOL/CICS/VSAM application from MVS to Solaris/Oracle 11gR2.
We have a few VSAM files with record layouts that start with a record-type field, and based on that, the remainder of the record layout varies based on COBOL copybooks using REDEFINES. We can't be the first to have this issue, and am wondering if there's a best-practice solution. Our initial thought is that each record type should become a separate database table, but if we need to do this manually, we'll also need to modify the post-converted code manually. I'm hoping there's a better way.
Thanks.

You are correct; you are not the first person to do this. There are a number of different strategies depending upon what you are trying to accomplish. First, is your objective to leave the COBOL/CICS/VSAM as is? If so, which COBOL compiler do you intend to use? Are you using Tuxedo ART Workbench? Are you aware that you have the option of leaving the VSAM datasets as VSAM on the target platform? If you want to convert VSAM to Oracle DB tables, you can create a separate table for each record type as you suggested or you can treat the entire record as a blob and let the copyfile sort it out once the data is returned to the program. Of course with this approach you will not realize the benefits Oracle DB as an RDBMS. Please provide me some additional context and I will make some best practices suggestions.
You can get some insight on Tuxedo ART Workbench at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18050_01/artwb/docs11gr1/wbuser/FileToOracle.html
