XML output from Oracle 8.1.6

I need to generate XML from oracle 8.1.6 and place the output into a file on NT directory. The RDBMS is running on SUN 2.7 (Solaris7).
What is the best approach to accomplish this?
I am new to XML, any sample code is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help.

If you want to write the code yourself, you can download the XML SQL Utility and write Java code (or use its PL/SQL api) to accomplish this.
You can also download the XSQL Pages technology and do it declaratively.
If you want to create XML for a query
like:
SELECT * FROM EMP
then with XSQL Pages you create a template
page like this:

<xsql:query connection="myDB" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
SELECT * FROM EMP
</xsql:query>
And then you can use the "xsql" command-line
utility to process the page and write the
output into a file like this:
$ xsql MyQuery.xsql MyOutputFile.xml

Build Reports from XML output from Reports

Hi,
I was just wondering if it is possible to build reports from output in XML format, originally generated by Oracle Reports.
The XML output produced by Reports is stored in a database for further processing.
TIA
Hien

Hi Hien
If I have understood this right, you need to create report in XML format from an XML Report Definition File. From the Builder, Generate to File from the File menu and choose XML format for the output.
Remember that XML output from Reports is Data driven and faithfully reproduces the Data Model. It is NOT layout driven.

Create XML file from Oracle DB

Hi,
I'm working in a task to create electronic billing for Mexico Rules, to do this; I need to create a XML source that will contain all the information requested from Oracle DB.
For this reason, I'm looking how to create this XML file from Oracle DB.
All this is for the new legislations rules in Mexico to use electronic billing.
Please, if you have any reference about this, let me know.
Thanks and regards.

you may want to check out commands like xmlforest and xmlelement
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/functions221.htm
copied from documentation
Purpose
XMLForest converts each of its argument parameters to XML, and then returns an XML fragment that is the concatenation of these converted arguments.
•If value_expr is a scalar expression, then you can omit the AS clause, and Oracle Database uses the column name as the element name.
•If value_expr is an object type or collection, then the AS clause is mandatory, and Oracle uses the specified c_alias as the enclosing tag. The c_alias can be up to 4000 characters.
•If value_expr is null, then no element is created for that value_expr.
Examples
The following example creates an Emp element for a subset of employees, with nested employee_id, last_name, and salary elements as the contents of Emp:
SELECT XMLELEMENT("Emp",
XMLFOREST(e.employee_id, e.last_name, e.salary))
"Emp Element"
FROM employees e WHERE employee_id = 204;
Emp Element
<Emp>
<EMPLOYEE_ID>204</EMPLOYEE_ID>
<LAST_NAME>Baer</LAST_NAME>
<SALARY>10000</SALARY>
</Emp>

Sorry, I don't understand what exactly you want to do. And I'm under the impression that you might not know exactly what you want to do as well. Could you explain a bit more detailed what you want to achieve?

Controlling XML Output from a Crystal Report

Hi guys,
I need to provide an XML output from one of my reports. The customer has defined his schema and I have tried to implement it using the 'XML Expert" With reference to the two snippets below:
this is what I want:
<DEPADDR>ZBTJ</DEPADDR>
<ACFTYPE>EMB145</ACFTYPE>
and this is what I get:
<DEPADDR FieldName="{@DEPADDR}">ZBTJ</DEPADDR>
<ACFTYPE FieldName="{@ACFTYPE}">EMB145</ACFTYPE>
Does anyone know how to suppress "FieldName="{@DEPADDR}"" from the output? In the XML Expert Dialog both the name, which prints, and the type, which doesn't, are greyed out so you can't do anything with them. There is a "Suppress XML Tag" tick box but that seems to have no effect on what is included in the export.
Thanks in advance
Richard

Need help for SQL SELECT query to fetch XML records from Oracle tables having CLOB field

Hello,
I have a scenario wherein i need to fetch records from several oracle tables having CLOB fields(which is holding XML) and then merge them logically to form a hierarchy XML. All these tables are related with PK-FK relationship. This XML hierarchy is having 'OP' as top-most root node and ‘DE’ as it’s bottom-most node with One-To-Many relationship. Hence, Each OP can have multiple GM, Each GM can have multiple DM and so on.
Table structures are mentioned below:
OP:
Name                             Null                    Type

OP_DESC                                        VARCHAR2(50)
OP_PAYLOD_XML                           CLOB
GM:

I am using above SQL select statement for fetching the XML records and this gives me all related xmls for each entity in a single record(OP, GM, DM. DE). Output of this SQL query is as below:
Current O/P:
<resultSet>
     <Record1>
          <OP_PAYLOD_XML1>
          <GM_PAYLOD_XML1>
          <DM_PAYLOD_XML1>
          <DE_PAYLOD_XML1>
     </Record1>
     <Record2>
          <OP_PAYLOD_XML2>
          <GM_PAYLOD_XML2>
          <DM_PAYLOD_XML2>
          <DE_PAYLOD_XML2>
     </Record2>
     <RecordN>
          <OP_PAYLOD_XMLN>
          <GM_PAYLOD_XMLN>
          <DM_PAYLOD_XMLN>
          <DE_PAYLOD_XMLN>
     </RecordN>
</resultSet>
Now i want to change my SQL query so that i get following output structure:
<resultSet>
     <Record>
          <OP_PAYLOD_XML1>
          <GM_PAYLOD_XML1>
          <GM_PAYLOD_XML2> .......
          <GM_PAYLOD_XMLN>
          <DM_PAYLOD_XML1>
          <DM_PAYLOD_XML2> .......
          <DM_PAYLOD_XMLN>
          <DE_PAYLOD_XML1>
          <DE_PAYLOD_XML2> .......
          <DE_PAYLOD_XMLN>
     </Record>
     <Record>
          <OP_PAYLOD_XML2>
          <GM_PAYLOD_XML1'>
          <GM_PAYLOD_XML2'> .......
          <GM_PAYLOD_XMLN'>
          <DM_PAYLOD_XML1'>
          <DM_PAYLOD_XML2'> .......
          <DM_PAYLOD_XMLN'>
          <DE_PAYLOD_XML1'>
          <DE_PAYLOD_XML2'> .......
          <DE_PAYLOD_XMLN'>
     </Record>
<resultSet>
Appreciate your help in this regard!

Hi,
A few questions :
How's your first query supposed to give you an XML output like you show ?
Is there something you're not telling us?
What's the content of, for example, <OP_PAYLOD_XML1> ?
I don't think it's a good idea to embed the node level in the tag name, it would make much sense to expose that as an attribute.
What's the db version BTW?

How to run an XML Report from Oracle Forms 10G

Hello Friends,
I am in need of showing a xml report output through a button press trigger in Oracle Forms10G.
I have designed the report in XML Publisher and the report looks fine.I found few scripts useful in running the Oracle Report from Oracle forms10G like Run_Report_Object.But I am not aware of any script that could run a XML report and show the output directly from a Form.
All I want is to run a XML report from an Oracle Form with a button press trigger and show the output in an html version.
Can this be achieved?
If so, Kindly advise as this is an immediate work.
Regards,
Badrul.

Hi,
If I am not wrong the XML publisher is same as BI publisher ...
There is one document which explains how to integrate using web service
You want to check this

or you can also try web.show_document ..

XML Output from Concurrent Request DBMS_XMLGEN

I am trying to create xml output for a concurrent request, using the DBMS_XMLGEN package to generate my XML?
I have gotten so far as to be able to run my procedure and see the output in TOAD using dbms_output.put_line, but I can't seem to quite get the right link to convert this to Oracle Apps output.
I have a concurrent request setup to output XML.
This calls my procedure to return to the output file.
So far, when I run from APPS, all that shows in the Output file is 'XML document must have a top level element.'
Here is the relevant code...
ctx DBMS_XMLGEN.ctxHandle; -- vars to convert SQL output to xml
xml clob;
xmlc varchar2(4000);
off integer := 1;
len integer := 4000;
i number := 0;
rc_data sys_refcursor;
begin
-- this calls simple open cursor for sql statement, returns rows
rc_data := fa10022_data(P_BOOK_TYPE_CODE
, P_STATE
, v_BEG_DATE_EFFECTIVE
, v_END_DATE_EFFECTIVE
, P_BEG_ASSET_ACCT
, P_END_ASSET_ACCT
, v_depr_per_ctr);
ctx := dbms_xmlgen.newContext(rc_data);
dbms_xmlgen.setRowsetTag(ctx, 'XXFA10022');
dbms_xmlgen.setRowTag(ctx, 'G_DATA');
xml := dbms_xmlgen.getXml(Ctx);
i := dbms_xmlgen.getNumRowsProcessed(ctx);
dbms_xmlgen.closeContext(Ctx);
apps.fnd_file.put_line(apps.fnd_file.output, xml);
I was also following this link...
http://www.appsassociates.com/products/Generation_XML_PLSQL.pdf
any suggestions?
Thanks!!
Janel

That was painful, but it helped!
Most of it is workflow code...POXMLGEN contains the pertinent coding.
I think my problem now lies with some of my data. Depending on what is returned, I sometimes receive a warning with no output. I know there are special characters in the data (ex eacute), but I can't tell if that is what is causing the issue. I do have the statement dbms_xmlgen.setConvertSpecialChars(ctx, TRUE); in my code, so not sure what else to do.
This is what is being returned in OPP log...
Caused by: oracle.xdo.parser.v2.XMLParseException: Start of root element expected.
