XML Generated using given DTD

hi guys ,
i have to make a java GUI application to generate an xml file.
to accomplish this the code must:
1...... ask the user to input the path of the DTD file according to which the xml file will be generated.
2........then it should parse the DTD file and present the different element names in a tree to the user .
3.......the user can now click on the element names one by one. Upon clicking a message box the user will be asked for value, type etc
4.......all these values inputed by the user will be used to generate the xml file.
my question is that ....does java have inbuilt classes to carry out DTD related manipulation.??...like for example parsing the DTD and putting the element names in a tree.
Also how do pass on the element names to the dynamically created tree.
i am presently using a DTD parser that i got from http://www.wutka.com.
but not sure whether it can do the things i need .

Well, I've just realized that JDK 1.5 has standard way to validate XMLs using XSD schemas. Ok. But look at the sample
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:import namespace="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"
        schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd" />
<xs:element name="birthdate">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:sequence>
        <xs:element name="month" type="xs:string" />
        <xs:element name="day" type="xs:int" />
        <xs:element name="year" type="xs:int" />
      </xs:sequence>
    </xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>Every time I process this schema, it goes to w3c.org... And I wonder if it cause some problems if I delete
<xs:import namespace="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"
        schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd" />

Validating an XML document using external DTD?

Hi,
I want to validate an XML file using external DTD with SAX parser.
How can I validate an XML file with external DTD.
Thanks in Advance,
Mahendra

I dont think we can set a DTD file throug java while
parsing an XML.I've done it with an XML schema though. Can you use that instead? For schemas you do something like:
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
factory.setAttribute( "http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaSource",
schemaUrl );where schemaUrl in this case would be something like file:///usr/local/whatever.xsd

How to remove non-ASCII charcters from an XML generated using Simple Transf

Hi,
I am currently facing a problem where I invoke a ST like
CALL TRANSFORMATION ZTEST
source root = str
result xml rawstr.
to prepare an XML using the contents of the ABAP variable str.
In my case sometime the variable str can contain non-ASCII characters. What I find is that ST do not remove these characters and the final XML that get generated thus contains non-parsable xml charcaters.
Is there an efficient way to remove/replace such non-ascii characters within the ST such that my final XML is consumable by any xml parser. I do not want to do a second level of processing by running through the output xml and removing the charcaters individually, because in our system the number of xml messages generated is very high and any such lookup-replace algorithm terms out to be too coslty.

Vikas Lamba

XML Validation using custom DTD file

Well, I thought that my problem is about to be a trivial one, but now, I don't think so. I have to develop XML-based protocol over HTTP. XML Document doesn't contain any reference to DTD, but I have some DTDs. I want to validate my XML messages in real time and I want to find some library that allows to do something like that:
SomeXmlValidatingParser s = new SomeXmlValidatingParser(InputStream dtdFileStream);
for(;;)
    InputStream is = message.recive();
    DocumentObject = s.parseAndValidate(is);
}So, the issue is to pass my custom DTD file (it is already loaded to memory) into validating parser.
So, which library have such functionality? And if there are some, could you be so kind to advice some of them?

Well, I've just realized that JDK 1.5 has standard way to validate XMLs using XSD schemas. Ok. But look at the sample
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Produce XML file with a given DTD

I have only installed XSU, and I was hopping to use pl/sql package XMLGEN to generate XML with a given DTD and a sql query.
I can't find input parameter for DTD. Well it seems logical as both DTD and SQL are for defining the XML output file.
How can this be done ?
Thanks.
/Kwan

Sure. You could write an EntityResolver to do that. Attach it to your DocumentBuilder or XMLReader, depending on which you are using.

XML validation using DTD

My XML file is as follows:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='us-ascii'?>

<!DOCTYPE esv SYSTEM "authentication.dtd">
<esv>
<authentication>
<username>esv_dba</username>
<password>esv_dba</password>
<host>rfi_dev</host>
<dbinstance>esv</dbinstance>
</authentication>
</esv>
File "authentication.dtd"
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='us-ascii'?>

<!ELEMENT esv (authentication)>
<!ELEMENT authentication ( username, password, host, dbinstance )>
<!ELEMENT username (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT password (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT host (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT dbinstance (#PCDATA)>
I am using the following code to validate:
SAXParserFactory factory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
factory.setValidating(true);
When I remove file "authentication.dtd" from the system I still get the same results. How do I validate my XML using a DTD? I am using the example given in the tutorial at Sun's java site

Thanks for all your answers.
Regarding DTD, I have only the following in my XML file, but I do not get any error.
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='us-ascii'?>

<!DOCTYPE esv SYSTEM "authentication.dtd">
<esv>
</esv>

Generic Populating the XML document using Java Class Generator and Reflection

I am looking for a generic source code in order to convert the data parsed from any tabular text form ( tab delimited for example that maps certain XML Schema created form Database Schema for Oracle.
I know it is possible to generate XML DTD or XSD from Oracle database table schema by XSU utility from XDK. And also it is possible to create Java source files from an XML DTD or XSD by using XML Clas Generator.
I believe there must be some generic code that parses tabular text data and converts them to XML format using above mentioned generated Java source files and may be Java reflection mechanism.
If anyone has any tool or knows any free ware that helps me, I would like to know about it, and I would really appreciate it.

1. Read the XML file into a DMO object, walk the DOM to find the list, insert your new entry as a child, write the DOM back to a file.
2. If the XML is not in a file, but in a string, then you can do the same with string input and output.

Generate XML output using DBMS_XMLGEN.getxmltype and not from rdf

Hi,
I have a requirement to display output from a particular table in XL format. Out of all the known possible options, I am planning to use the XML publisher to generate XL output.
For the data source, instead of using the conventional way of creating XML data using rdf,I am planning to use DBMS_XMLGEN.getxmltype pl/sql procedure to generate the XML output. And from the output, call the template to generate the required Excel output.
Now, I am using the following code to generate XML output but am not sure how to proceed from here. I need to first print the XML data in the FND Output file after which I was planning to call the 'XML Report Publisher' (XDOREPPB) program and use the current request id to get the excel output but I am not able to find the way to print the XML data in the output file as:
fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.output, l_xml_type); - is throwing an error as l_xml_type is an XML data output.
PROCEDURE xml_main (
errbuf OUT VARCHAR2
,retcode OUT VARCHAR2
,p_project_from IN VARCHAR2
,p_project_to IN VARCHAR2
AS
l_xml_type XMLTYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT DBMS_XMLGEN.getxmltype
('SELECT fnd_global.conc_request_id
,TO_CHAR (segment1)
,to_char(start_date,''MM/DD/RRRR'')
,to_char(xxmcc_project_details_pkg.current_profit_projection
(project_id),''999,999,990.90'')
,to_char(xxmcc_project_details_pkg.cost_to_date (project_id),''999,999,990.90'')
,''1''
FROM pa_projects_all
WHERE segment1 BETWEEN NVL (p_project_from, segment1)
AND NVL (p_project_to, segment1)')
INTO l_xml_type
FROM DUAL;
fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.output, l_xml_type);
END xml_main;
Can anyone point me as to how to publish XML output using a PL/SQL procedure (DBMS_XMLGEN.getxmltype)
Thanks.

Pl see if the example included in this presentation helps http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/applications/Events/OOW-2006/EBS/S281401_Sridhar_Bogelli.pdf
Also, you do not need to explicitly call XDOREPPB in later versions of XML Publisher. If you set up everything correctly (as described in the presentation above and the link below) the Output Post Processor is called automatically after the XML file is generated successfully.
Another excellent tutorial is at http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/fusion_middleware/fusion/bi/xmlp_ebiz/index.html

No, It is a PO Print only. Only for changes to PO that do not affect the value of the PO,this error occurs. When i select the entry for the PO and click on Output message, the output message fails. On clicking Display Message, it shows the message - No schedules exist for the Scheduling Agreement XXXXXX(the PO number".
So,it is not for Scheduling Agreements but for PO only. I know it is weird to see such an error on the PO output message in ME9F.
Pls help.

How do I generate XML File Using JDeveloper 9.0.3

Hi All
I want to generate a XML file against the data in one of my Oracle table,,,, This is the first time I am doing this Task, so please let me know whether I am going through the correct path, or if not appreciate if you could put me to the correct system of doing this please��..
OK , Well I am working to a publishing company in Australia and we have Oracle 8i (Release 3 ) database and I have Oracle JDeveloper (9.0.3 -Preview ) version in my personal computer.
I have a Table(ONIXT4) with three Columns( ISBN,Author,Price) in Oracle as follows:
ISBN     Author     Price
2512456321     Peter     14.50
7445854127     Ray      21.75
What I want to generate a XML File using JDeveloper as below with respect to data in above Table.
<ISBN>2512456321</ISBN>
<ProductInfor>
<Author>Peter</Author>
<Price>14.50</Price>
</ProductInfor>
<ISBN>7445854127</ISBN>
<ProductInfor>
<Author> Ray </Author>
<Price>21.75</Price>
</ProductInfor>
I created the database connection within JDeveloper to Oracle those working fine,, my major problem is,, the Tag <ProductInfor>, since this is not a Column Name of the Table I don't know how should I incorporate this with the file.
What I did so far with the JDeveloper:
1.Create the Workspace and the Project
2.File -- New -- XML -- XSQL
3.Then I Selected Query from the Component Palette,, Property Values were NOT changed, and gave 'Select * from ONIXT4'
Whole Untitled3.xsql file look likes below
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>

<page xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql" connection="Connection1">
<xsql:query max-rows="-1" null-indicator="no" tag-case="lower">
Select * From OnixT4
</xsql:query>
</page>
Then the Result comes as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
- 
- <page>
- <rowset>
- <row num="1">
<isbn>2512456321</isbn>
<author>Peter</author>
<price>14.5</price>
</row>
- <row num="2">
<isbn>7445854127</isbn>
<author>Ray</author>
<price>21.75</price>
</row>
</rowset>
</page>
How do I format the outcome to obtain the my requirement??
Welcome all comments of donig this ....

To format your XML to the requiered output you'll use a stylesheet and XSLT
As it says in your output:

A nice tutorial on XSLT is available on the XML technology center in OTN:

Best way to generate the XML files from a DTD file

Hey,
I am writing an application that needs to convert a complicated data structure into an xml file. I have design a DTD file that describes the data structure.
My question is what is the best, most efficient way to covert the data structures (objects) into the XML files with a DTD file.
Thank you very much.

Convert the DTd to an XML Schema. Generate java classes from Schema with Jaxb. Create an XML document from the java classes.

How do I generate HTML from XML & XSL using XSL Processor ?

I want to generate a HTML from XML & XSL using XDK for C on
linux-8i.
I run the XSLSample well.
But it only generate a XML from a XML & a XSL.
Can any one give me some advise or sample code?

Just use HTML tags instead of xml tags in your stylesheet, and
you'll generate HTML instead.
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
    <html>
      <body>
        <xsl:for-each select="ROWSET">
          <table border="1" cellspacing="0">
            <xsl:for-each select="ROW">
              <tr>
                <td><xsl:value-of select="EMPNO"/></td>
                <td><xsl:value-of select="ENAME"/></td>
              </tr>
            </xsl:for-each>

Binding XML to java types generated using Oracle Class Gen

Hi,
how can you bind an XML to the java types generated using the class gen provided byOracle.
I am using oracle 9i production. as part of my design, i have to read an xml input in my java class and use the contents to create some records and send a response xml back.
The latter part of i can do as the java types provide setter methods to set the data and conversion to xml.
Jaxb can be using to bind xml to java datatypes but its not supported in Oracle9i.
What are the alternatives for achieving the same?
Thanks
Ashwin

Hi Ashwin,
This is a bit outside my area of expertise, but I did run an older version of TopLink in the Oracle database java VM a few years back so I'll base my advice on that. Hopefully other forum members can correct me if I steer you wrong.
First you will need to set up your XML environment:
I believe the Oracle 9i database includes a JDK 1.3 VM. You will first need to determine if the VM includes any JAXP APIs. I believe there is an SQL query that allows you to query the classes available in the VM. First check if javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory is present.
If the JAXP APIs are already present in the database you will need to do the following. First load the class javax.xml.namespace.QName into the database. You can extract this from xmlparserv2.jar or from Suns Java Web Service Developer Pack jax-qname.jar. Then you will need to load the JAXB APIs. You can load xml.jar or jaxb-api.jar from Sun's JWSDP.
If the JAXP APIs are not present you will need to load the 10.1.3 version of the XDK jars (these are shipped with the 10.1.3 TopLink install). Load xmlparserv2.jar and xml.jar into the database.
Second you will need to setup your TopLink environment:
Load toplink.jar into the database. If the JAXP APIs were already present and you didn't load the 10.1.3 XDK jars into the database you will need to set the following System property.
toplink.xml.platform=oracle.toplink.platform.xml.jaxp.JAXPPlatform-Blaise
