XML, Oracle and Namespaces

Do any of the current XML parsers support namespaces?
If not how can the idea of external DTD or schema be used

Our current parsers support namespaces and will support schemas

XML Publisher and namespace

I´m using XML Publisher 5.5 with Template Builder. I have created an RTF document that works perfect with XML Publisher. I now want work more complicated with my template using XSL. I have through Template Builder created an XSL-FO style sheet.
I open the xsl-doc in XMLSPY, assinging an xml-doc and try to preview expecting the result to be the same as using Template Builder but the layout gets all messed up and I get an error that says that the namespace xmlns:xdofo="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/fo/extensions" is invalid.
The complete start tag:
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"
xmlns:ora="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/"
xmlns:xdofo="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/fo/extensions"
xmlns:xdoxslt="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/oracle.apps.xdo.template.rtf.XSLTFunctions"
xmlns:xdoxliff="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:document:1.1">
Does anybody know where I should point my namespace or what I´m doing wrong?
Regards,
Daniel

I know what I can do in RTF and maybe it´s enough:
1. Ensure you are using both tabs of the help text, you can start in Status Bar and continue with Help Key.
2. You can also use multiple fields one after another.
3. If you fill all of that and need more space I would consider moving the function out into its own XSL template and register it as a sub template and reference it from your main template. This is especially useful if you are going to need the same function across multiple templates.
My problem was why I can´t use XSL-FO - XML in XMLSPY, have´nt anybody tried to go out of the WORD-RTF and code som XSL? Maybe it´s not possible and I have to use WORD-RTF.

JSP Documents (JSP pages in XML format) and Namespaces

I have 1 set of XSLT stylesheets that takes XML and outputs JSP documents.
This 1 set of XSLT supports numerous clients (customers).
I have a new customer that uses a new namespace, let's call it "xyz".
This namespace is the TLD for xyz custom tags.
So, it would look something like this in the resulting jsp:root tag --> xmlns:xyz = "/xyzTagLib".
Where /xyzTagLib has a corresponding entry in web.xml that points to the xyz.tld that is delivered in WEB-INF/TLD.
However, most customers do not have the xyz application installed.
Thus, I added the exclude-namespace-prefixes="xyz" in the xsl:stylesheet tag to conditionally add the xmlns:xyz only if an xyz tag exists. However, this does not add it to the jsp:root tag, but only to each individual xyz tag in the resulting document.
However, the resulting JSP does not work in the runtime environment because it does not recognize the xyz tags.
Is there a known bug with jsp documents declaring namespaces "in line" instead of at the jsp:root level? Is there a way around this?
Thanks,
Brian

Hi Tridib,
the XML content is stored in the .xml file. You'll have to access it in a way that doesn't cause the XML-to-HTML transformation to take a peek at the format. You could probably do this by accessing the repository in question via WebDAV. If you're on a later SP, you should be able to go to /irj/go/km/docs/ in your browser to access the repository via WebDAV. Otherwise, take a look in the details pane of the folder that contains the .xml file in question. Under properties, there'll be a URL to access the folder via WebDAV.

Xml deserialization and namespace issue.

I have an xml file something like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<NS1:NodeA xmlns:NS1="FooSpace">
<NS1:NodeB>
<NS1:NodeC>
<NS1:ElementA>text</NS1:ElementA>
</NS1:NodeC>
<NS1:NodeD>
<Attributes>
<Name>xxx</Name>
<Value>yyy</Value>
</Attributes>
<Attributes>
<Name>www</Name>
<Value>zzz</Value>
</Attributes>
</NS1:NodeD>
</NS1:NodeB>
</NS1:NodeA>
I can parse every thing upto the contents of NodeD. For the classes which expose elements (NodeA to NodeD), I decorate the properties as follows:
[XmlElement("property_name", Namespace = "FooSpace")]
The Attributes class has properties without the Namespace key.
Anyone know what I am missing?
Thanks!

I am glad to know you solved this problem and thanks for sharing the solution.

If I remove the namespace, everything works just fine. The issue is that I cannot remove the namespace.
Anyone have any suggestions on how I can get the xslprocessor.selectNodes to recognize my namespace?

BPM XML Events and Namespaces

I am trying to send an XML event to BPM. The XML's root node has a namespace associated
with it (for example, <bea:Employee>) where "bea" is defined as a namespace in
the top of the document. It looks like BPM does not support namespaces in start
nodes or event nodes. Is there any way to indicate in my workflow that the incoming
document will use a namespace?

Doug
As you have pointed out Namespaces are not supported at this point

Problem number 2
Is there a way that i can use XML Desktop and create a line graph with 2 lines rather than 1 plotting
here is my xml for graph i have made with one line
chart:
<Graph>
<Title text="" visible="true" horizontalAlignment="CENTER"/>
<LocalGridData colCount="{count(.//SELF_OTHERS)}" rowCount="1">
<RowLabels><Label></Label></RowLabels>

Convert flat file to XML document and store into Oracle database

First:
I have a flatfile and created external table to read that file in Oracle
Now I want to create an XML document for each row and insert into Oracle database, I think that XMLtype.
Could you please provide me some information/steps.
Second:
Is there performance issues, because everyday I need to check that XML document stored in the database against the in coming file.
Thank You.

Oracle 11g R2 Sun Solaris
Flat file is | (pipe delimited), so I did create an EXTERNAL Table
row1     a|1|2|3|4
row2     b|2|3|4|5
row3     c|6|7|8|9
I want to store each record as XML document. So it will be easy to compare with next day's load and make insert or update.
The reason is:
     First day the file comes with 5 columns
     after some days, the file may carry on some additional columns more than 5
     In this case I do not want to alter table to capture those values, if I use XML than I can capture any number of columns, CORRECT!. Please make me correct If I am wrong.
     This is the only reason to try to use the XMLType (XML Document)
     On Everyday load we will be matching these XML documents and update it if there is any column's value changes
daily average load will be 10 millions and initial setup will be 60-80 millions
     Do I have anyother option to capture the new values without altering the table.
Please advise!.

Deleting Message Type name and namespace tag from XML payload

Hi Gurus,
Need help. My payload looks like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns1:MT_O_sss xmlns:ns1="http://sap.com/xi/tm">
- <Job>
   <Field name="xxxx" value="" />
<Field name="xxx" value="" />
<Field name="xxx" value="" />
   </Job>
</ns1:MT_O_sss>
But The soap webservice is expecting it in
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Job>
   <Field name="xxxx" value="" />
<Field name="xxx" value="" />
<Field name="xxx" value="" />
   </Job>
I have to remove the message type name and namespace tag.
So how can I achieve this. I am sending this payload using a Receiver Soap Adapter. Please help. I am kind of stuck.

hi,
you have to simply add one module in your communication channel
that is XMLAnonymizerBean
you can refer below for help:
Remove namespace prefix or change XML encoding with the XMLAnonymizerBean

Oracle XML parser and schema validation

Hi Forum,
I have problem parsing XML with validation against XML schema. I define location of schema (URL) in xml file and Oracle parser could not find the schema (xml file is correct - checked in other programs). When I point to xml schema directly from Java (using parser.setXMLSchema) before calling parser.parse, it works just fine. Where is the problem? Does oracle parser works correctly with XML Schema?
TIA,
Alex

SAXParser saxParser=new SAXParser();
saxParser.setValidationMode(XMLParser.SCHEMA_VALIDATION);
Specify a Schema to validate a XML document with, for the SAXParser.
saxParser.setXMLSchema(SchemaUrl);
DefaultHandler handler=new DefaultHandler();
saxParser.setErrorHandler(handler);
Parse the XML document to validate with the XML schema.
saxParser.parse(XmlDocumentUrl);
