XML Schema file in data definition

Hi,
I am creating a custom RTF template for a seeded data definition in the eBusiness Suite. The data definition has an XML Schema file loaded however this does not include all the data required for the template. Running the report to just generate the XML (i.e. no template) I can see that the additional data is available at this level just not included in the XSD.
I have built the template including the additional elements from the XML and expected to have to create a custom data definition as well to add the additional elements to the XSD. However the template is working against the seeded definition and successfully picking up the elements that are not included in the XSD.
Has anybody else come across this situation? And are there any potential issues? I could create a custom data definition as well to load an amended XSD but this would be a more invasive change as it would involve end dating the seeded data definition which I would prefer not to do. The report is not being generated from a concurrent request so I cannot just create a custom request and leave the seeded report untouched.
Thanks,
Sarah

The XML Schema is only required if you are using a PDF template (the template file itself is PDF) with field-mapping. For other template types the schema is optional.
The XML Schema is used to define a "class" of XML documents, so to speak. The define the semantics and structure of the XML documents more thoroughly.
If you have closely related reports, you could use a single schema to standardize (in a sense) the XML to be output from the class of related reports. In that case you could have a single schema file uploaded to multiple reports/data-definitions.
The W3C has good documentation on XML Schema.
If you want to see samples, you can use tools such as dtd2xs to create sample schemas from your DTD.

  • Parse XML Schema File?

    Dear Sun Developer Network,
    I suppose maybe I should start at the beginning.
    Can anyone outline the first few steps involved in parsing an XML schema file into a traversable data structure in Java?
    I'd like to get a get a discussion started here about this, because I have some questions about the process as I currently understand it, and the more advanced (i'm supposing they're more advanced) questions that I've been asking in the past have gone completely unanswered in this forum. So perhaps, starting from the beginning, and working through to the difficulties I'm encountering would be a better approach to solving those issues.
    Thank you,
    Nels

    >
    Many thanks for your reply! My next question is,
    s, if parsing an XML schema file can be done with a
    SAX or dom parser, then why has Sun bothered to
    develop the JAXB api? What is the difference?
    Hi Nels,
    SAX and DOM are technologies for parsing and JAXB is a technology for databinding. They are 2 different technologies.
    Parsing gives you acess to raw xml
    DataBinding does the parsing and goes one step ahed and loads the data from xml to java objects. It is a higher level of abstraction over parsing
    schema is a specification which helps to define the rules for a valid xml document. It also happens to be xml. DTD is a kind of limited schema which is non xml.
    hope you got the diffrence.
    ps: did you try the -J-Xmx switch with javac to resolve yhe OutOfMemory exception I suggested in your previous post

  • Location of XML schema file (XSD)

    Hi! Previously a XML schema was imported into the Console Manager and used for the import of data into the repository. Now we have made some changes and I would like to change the XML schema file. However, I would like to get a copy of the previously import schema (XSD) file from the system. Does anyone know where this file can possibly be held? Any way for us to extract this file to update?
    Cheers!
    SF

    Hi SF,
    the XSD is actually stored in MDM's database. One option to export is using the transport schema mechanism in MDM console - asuming that you're on MDM 7.1. If so, right-click on your repository in MDM console and choose Transport -> Export Repository Schema in the context menu. Doing this you'll get a huge XML file describing your repository. Open this XML in a suitable editor (e.g. IE, Wordpad, XML Spy, and so on) and check the file contents. Somewhere inside you'll find a section for XML Schemas and your XSD.
    If you are on 5.5, the only option is accessing the DB directly...
    Best regards

  • Can't i use xml schema and oledb data connection at the same time?

    Hello to all and thanks in advance.I use xml schema and oledb data connection at the same time and the problem is that when I try to export the xml, the outcome is not what i expect.Without the oledb connection everything is ok (just the schema) and the xml complies with the schema.
    Can't i have both schema and oledb and the exported xml be as i want it?

    You can use both at the same time, but not gor Internet access if that's what you're asking.
    Now there is a thing called Link Aggregation, which combines a number of interfaces for speed/redundancy, but it really only works locally, and then only with ALL special equipment in the route, and most likely OSX Server involved.
    Sorry.

  • Memory issue loading XML schema files

    Hi,
    I have an application that a startup reads available XML schema files from a folder and creates Validator objects that are put into a HashMap.
    I'm running into problems creating validation schema objects when the file size of the schema is just over 30kB in size.
    The following error message is given when testing with the "large" schemas:

    It would seem that if files.length is 10000, that would end up in around 30 times as much memory usage as for the 1000x10Kb schemas.

  • How to bind data from script created variable to embed element of XML schema (xsd) in "Data View"

    Hi, i have got another problem with livecycle designer scripting.

    var aaa = "this is my string";
    and i have got embed XML schema like this (it`s only short part of whole file):
    ... xs:element name="bbb" type="xs:string"/ ...
    After saving data to XML i would like to get "this is my string" as a value of my "bbb" XML element.
    To save this data i`m using submit button which is connect with submit.php file on my server.
    How to connect script created variable and embed XML schema element which is present on my "Data View" tab.
    Please help me a bit becouse i don`t know even where to search answer of it...
    Of course i know possibilities to create fake unvisible text field object and bind it with 'bbb' and than put "this.rawValue = aaa" to connect those two variables but i think that is not a good idea to solve it in that way. It`s too primitive

    i solve it, i should write this:
    xfa.datasets.data.bbb.value = aaa;

  • Register xml schema and store data

    hi
    i registered a schema in my DB and want to store data related to that scema.
    is there any function which will allow me to create a relational table table from the XML document or we need to extract each and every value from the nodes using funcions like xmlsequence,extract,.....
    i read somewhere that we can do this using structured storage of xml using xml db
    but not sure if there is any function or just extracting the each value and storing ina apre created table...
    can someone help??
    Thank You

    Just curious but any reason you did not post the URLs for the two schemas since they are publicly available via the URL contained within each one? You could have posted those URLs and then dropped in a snippet of the XML in the forum instead of hosting on an external site.
    To post for everyone's knowledge, ifc2x3.xsd imports ex.xsd which contains common definitions for structures used in ifc2x3.xsd. The root node of the XML file is in ex.xsd; however; the schema defined in ex.xsd (which does not import/include ifc2x3.xsd) allows for the structures defined in ifc2x3.xsd to be used. Hence a stripped version of the XML file is
    <ex:iso_10303_28 xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:ex="<removed URN>" xsi:schemaLocation="<removed URN>ex.xsd">
         <ex:iso_10303_28_header/>
         <uos id="uos_1" xmlns="<removed location>" xsi:schemaLocation="<removed location> IFC2X3.xsd">
              <IfcCartesianPoint id="ID1"/>
         </uos>
    </ex:iso_10303_28>The following is based off what I've read in this forum over time.
    Given your root node is defined in ex.xsd, this is what you should reference when creating your column in the table. I believe that since you have both schemas registered, Oracle should be able to find the ifc2x3.xsd when validating the XML.
    I've never seen this schema setup before but maybe if you review some of the posts by Marco Gralike or mdrake where they RegisterSchema you may come across a similar example.
    Sorry for not being more help but maybe someone else can build upon what I started.

    Visakh16 I cant agree more with you on it, it is good but in production u cant have them change maxrows. I think
    Patrick  Hurst is a better option. debug the package have it running and move up
    Please mark as helpful and propose as answer if you find this as correct!!! Thanks,Dia Agha .
    Hmm..Why do you need to change it in production?
    What I suggested was to tweak the setting in dev machine so that it interprets the Excel file datatypes correctly when doing development. Once mapping is set correctly then it will work fine when in production or in any other environment. The tweaking is
    just to make sure it interprets the datatype correctly at design time and has nothing to do with production deployment
