XML Parsing with namespace

Hi All,
I have a requirement to convert XML to itab to be processed further.
I couldn't parse the XML which contains ns0 (namespace?) as following:
<ns0:OrderNo>887140</ns0:OrderNo>
<ns0:CPROD>BD</ns0:CPROD>
<ns0:CURR>USD</ns0:CURR>
I'm able to parse If I remove the namespace ns0 from the file as following:
<OrderNo>887140</OrderNo>
<CPROD>BD</CPROD>
<CURR>USD</CURR>
The thing is the XML file will always come with the namespace ns0.
I'm using IF_IXML, IF_IXML_STREAM_FACTORY, IF_IXML_ISTREAM, IF_IXML_PARSER, IF_IXML_DOCUMENT to parse the XML.
Any idea on how to overcome this?
Thanks,
Victor.

Hello Victor,
fine. I am glad, I could help you.
Just one note to XSLT Transformations: When using them, you got even the ability to map directly to internal abap tables:
CALL TRANSFORMATION ZXSLT_YOUR_TRANSFORMATION
SOURCE XML l_xmlstring
RESULT DATA = lt_data.
You just need to transform you xml to the asx:abap name space and that's it
Look at Re: Help needed XML to Internal table and vice versa, where I show a simple example, how this works.
Kind regards,
Hendrik

Using XSLT to extract value of a XML node with namespace

I want to use XSLT to extract value of a XML node with namespace <job:location>, and the returned value should be string 'Sydney - Inner Suburbs & CBD'. I tried a few XSL code below, but failed with error or nothing was returned.
<xsl:value-of select="job:location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="job/location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="job\location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
This might be an easy question for you, but I would appreciate if anyone can help.

Hi Suncorp IT Learner,
We need to tell the XSLT that some elements are in another namespace. Copy the xmls declarations for the prefixes you need to use. Then use the xsl format as:
<xsl: value-of select=”job:location/@PUReferenceID”/>
In following issue, Chriztian has a good explanation:

Hai All,
I worked with xml namespace with registering schema in db and referred in my xml document.It worked fine.
But i want to work in unstructured xml document with namespaces, to do all dml queries like, select,update,delete using Xpath to xmltype.

How must getElementsByTagName work on an xml file with namespaces?

Hello together,
is there any normative document, which specifies
which nodes must be returned by
the org.w3c.dom.Document method
getElementsByTagName when which was
created by a namespace aware dom parser
from an xml file containing namespaces?
In other words:
when you have an xml file:
<someprefix:somenode xmlns:someprefix="http://someuri">
<someprefix:innertag>
<someprefix:mostinnertag>
</someprefix:mostinnertag>
<someprefix:mostinnertag>
</someprefix:mostinnertag>
</someprefix:innertag>
</someprefix>
and you call
document.getElementsByTagName( ... );
1) How many nodes must be returned when giving
"mostinnertag" as parameter?
2) How many nodes when giving "someprefix:mostinnertag" as parameter?
Is it allowed to use the "non namespaceaware"
method and not "getElementsByTagNameNS"?
I know:
a) xerces returns 2 nodes when using
alternative 2 and none with alternative 1
b) oracle xml parser returns 2 nodes when using
alternative 1 and none when using alternative 2
Which implementation is right?
Yours
Stefan

I've got some problems with this methos and xerces too.
Perhaps the two implementations (xerces and oracle) are different. I mean xerces implementation gives you nodes of this name but without namespace and oracles's implementation gives you modes with namespace whose unprefix-name is "mostinnertag".

XML parser with document support

Hi all,
For a whole week now, I m still looking for a nice (but lite) XML parser for J2ME applications. Of course I found kXML 2 parser but I'm confused.
kXML 2 implements the XmlPull API (xmlpull.org) so you can parse easly an XML file with functions as next(), ...
BUT, I would like to deal with a Document Object Model (DOM) (like JDom for J2SE), with this I will be able to do some nice stuff like doc.getRoot().getElement....
In kXML2 Javadoc I found something like this but apparently it doesnt work well (or I dont know how to use it).
Do someone know this API ? http://kxml.sourceforge.net/kxml2/javadoc/
I can't find any example on Internet, everybody seems to use it without DOM....
Until someone give me an answer I will continue to use kXML2 without document object model :(
thanks guys,

just a search..in http://sourceforge.net/

XML Parsing with XSL Performance lag

Hi there
I should qualify this post by saying I am fairly new to EJB's and have based the below on a Java Working with XML Tutorial I read.
I have an EJB which is being developed to parse XML documents with an XSL stylesheet and return HTML for display. The code is working fine however there is a fairly hefty performance lag when using the EJB to generate the HTML as opposed to the straight HTML. I am getting an average response time of 95000ms using the EJB as opposed to 45000ms when viewing the straight HTML. The code I am using to do the parsing is :
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document document = builder.parse(dataFile);
// Convert docs into StreamSource
StreamSource stylesource = new StreamSource(styleSheet);
StreamSource source = new StreamSource(dataFile);
StringWriter strWrite = new StringWriter();
StreamResult result = new StreamResult(strWrite);
// Use a Transformer for output
TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(stylesource);
transformer.transform(source, result);
There is then some error handling and the strWrite object is placed into an array to be returned.
I am really looking to find out if the performance lag I am experiencing is normal or if there is anything I can do to improve the speed of the code.
All comments and help is most appreciated.
Cheers
Justin.

You should be able to increase performance by caching Templates objects in memory as a previous post suggested.
Here is some untested code:public final class TransformerCache
     private static Map cache = new Vector();
     private TransformerCache(){}
     public static Transformer getTransformer( String filename )
          if( ! cache.containsKey( filename ) )
               TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
               Templates template = tf.newTemplates( new StreamSource( filename ) );
               cache.put( filename, template );
          return ( ( Templates ) cache.get( filename ) ).newTransformer();
}This aproach works in a clustered environment, just bear in ming that there will be an instance of the cache on each server instance (virtual machine).

Selecting XML Children with Namespaces

I am trying to select child nodes of an XML element that have
a different namespace from the parent, but xml.child(name) returns
an empty list.
In the attached code, londonList contains a single XML
element and parisList is empty. I can't figure out how to find the
paris child, and have tried adding the prefix to findParis (so it
is "ff:b") as well as turning findParis into an XML object with the
name "b" and adding the ff namespace to it, then passing that to
child. Neither of those have worked.
Any help is appreciated.

Unfortunately in my real scenario I don't know what the
element will be called. It could be in <foo> or <bar>
etc, so I need to be able to use a variable (in which the element
name is set beforehand). With "::" I can't use a variable, so
textXML.ns::findParis looks for a "findParis" element and not "b".
That's why I'm trying to use testXML.child(findParis) because
I can use a variable. I just can't figure out how to make it
incorporate the namespace as well.

Using a xml parser with jbuilder

I'm using jbuilder and the required librairies I've just added require me to add an XML parser to the path. I've just downloaded one from www.apache.org.
How do I incorporate this parser into my project. I need to use the following packages but I'm not sure how I can put everything together.
If you understand what my problem is please help. Thanks , B.
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.DOMException;

Go to tools | configure libraries.
click the new button on the left
Type in the name you want the library to be identified with (XML Parser or something)
Choose the location (this determines how many people and projects have access to the libraries)
Click the add button and find the *.jar files.
Ok back out of the dialogs
Now select the Project Properties (or default props to have the library available to all projects, not recommended tho)
Select the paths tab
Click Add and select the Library you added in the earlier steps.
If you have any probs, www.borland.com has heaps of stuff on configuring libraries

XML parsing with SQL/PL-SQL

Hi,
My question is about how can an XML message can be best parsed using SQL/PL-SQL.
The scenario is as follow. The XML message is stored in a CLOB; only some of its data needs to be extracted; there are six different types of structures of XML; the size of each XML is about 50 lines (maximum depth level is 3); the data could be written in English or Greek or French or German or Russian; this is going to be done every hour and the parsing is going to be against 3,000 records approx.
In the development, I need to take into consideration performance. We are using Oracle 10, but we could migrate to Oracle 11 if necessary.
Apologies for this basic question but I have never done XML parsing in SQL/PL-SQL before.
Thank you.
PS I have copied this question to the XML forum.

Parsing this XML file with namespace

I need to parse the following XML structure:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ArrayOfTitles xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="http://example.com/">
<Titles>
    <articleID>123</articleID>
    <articleTitle>Title 1</articleTitle>
</Titles>
<Titles>
    <articleID>456</articleID>
    <articleTitle>Title 2</articleTitle>
</Titles>
<Titles>
    <articleID>789</articleID>
    <articleTitle>Title 3</articleTitle>
</Titles>
</ArrayOfTitles>
I am using this code:
var ns:Namespace = new Namespace("http://example.com/");
var strings:XMLList = xml.ns::Titles;
for each(var str:XML in strings)
trace(str);
But the output still has the namespace in each node.

Well, I have to say openning a new file writer every time you write a block of characters is pretty horrible, why not just use one buffered writer for the whole operation. I can't see the memory leak, but I think this would run agonisingly slowly.

Transforming signed XML document with namespace invalidates signature

I am running into a problem signing an XML document. Well, signing the document isn't the problem, as I can sign it and then verify the signature with the public key successfully. The problem comes when I transform the document to a string. It all appears to be OK, but when I transform it back, the hash no longer verifies. After more testing, it appears that the issue is related to namespaces. When I remove namespaces from the document, the signing and transformations work just fine. Does anyone have any insight on this?
Here is how I am transforming the document to an XML string that I and back.
    try
      signSAML( doc, assertionElement );
      xmlSource = new DOMSource( doc );
      baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
      outputTarget = new StreamResult( baos );
      xmlString = new String( new ByteArrayInputStream( baos.toByteArray() ) );
      transformerFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
      transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer();
      transformer.transform( xmlSource, outputTarget );
      boolean verified = verify( doc );
      if ( verified )
        System.out.println( "Verified" );
      else
        System.out.println( "UNVerified" );
    catch ( Exception e )
      // TODO Auto-generated catch block
      e.printStackTrace();
    }

i'm not talking about the transform, i'm talking about this line:
xmlString = new String( new ByteArrayInputStream( baos.toByteArray() ) );which is a great way to break xml data.Yes. That's not the only kind of data it's good at breaking, either.
To the OP: just have your transform output to a StringWriter in the first place. Don't muck about converting between chars and bytes unless you know the correct encoding and use it. Which you don't know it and you didn't use it.

XML parsing with digester

Hi all,
I'm trying to parse the following xml document:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<map>
     <entry key='PAGE2.SNOME'>
          <bean key='nomeCliente'>field</bean>
     </entry>
     <entry key='PAGE3.TIPO_CONSTRUCAO'>
          <bean key='tipoConstrucao'>radio</bean>
     </entry>
</map>with Digester. I'm trying to create a Map that holds Maps as Objects. My first approach was:
Digester digester = new Digester();
digester.addObjectCreate("map", HashMap.class);
digester.addObjectCreate("map/entry", HashMap.class);
digester.addCallMethod("map/entry", "put", 2);
digester.addCallParam("map/entry", 0, "key");
digester.addCallMethod("map/entry/bean", "put", 2);
digester.addCallParam("map/entry/bean", 0, "key");
digester.addCallParam("map/entry", 1);But it didn't return the results i expected. Is the order of the instructions wrong? What do i have to change to fix it?
Hope someone can help me with this.
Cheers,
Carlos Ferreira

Element rootelement = document.getDocumentElement();
mainNodes = rootelement.getChildNodes();
for(int i = 0; i<mainNodes.getLength(); i++) {
   Node eachParent = mainNodes.item(i);
   if(!eachParent.getNodeName().equals("#text")) {
      System.out.println(eachParent.getNodeName());
      for(Node child= eachParent.getFirstChild(); child != null; child=child.getNextSibling()) {
         if(!child.getNodeName().equals("#text")) {
            System.out.println(child.getNodeName()+" --- "+child.getFirstChild().getNodeValue());
}This (your) code will only process the directchild nodes of your rootelement!
try something like this instead:
public void processDocument(Document document) {
   processElement(document.getDocumentElement();
public void processElement(Node node) {
   if(!(node instanceof TextNode)) {
      System.out.println(eachParent.getNodeName());
      NodeList nodeChildren = node.getChildNodes();
      for(int i=0; i<nodeChildren.getLength(); i++) {
         proecessElement(nodeChildren.item(i));
}

XML parsing with DocumentBuilder

Hi,
I use to parse an XML document using DocumentBuilder and Document objects.
When i have within my XML document the following line :
<value>MY_VALUE</toto>
How can i get the value "MY_VALUE" using Node objects without searching elements by tag name or criteria ???
