Xml transformation with java

Hi, I am new to java, and was looking for some java code to accomplish the following:
I have an XML file, and a target XML schema. I also have a mapping schema, that maps the source xml file attributes with the target schema attributes.
I want to read the input xml file, and then reformat it to conform to the output xml schema(validated).
Will appreciate if someone can point me to code for a similar problem .....!

Transform the input xml to an XML document which conforms to the target schema with a XSLT.
http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/ea2/tutorial/doc/JAXPXSLT2.html
Validate the XML document with the target Schema.

XSL transformation with java binding

Hi everyone!
I am trying to implement na XSL transformation that uses java code binding.
My XSL looks as follows:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:myobj="java.lang.System" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0" xmlns:xf="http://www.sapportals.com/wcm/app/xmlforms">
<xsl:param name="myobj"/>
<xsl:value-of select="string(myobj:currentTimeMillis())"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Everything works fine - current time is displayed.
But when I try to use my custom java class the compiler returns an exception:
com.sapportals.wcm.WcmException: com.sap.engine.lib.xml.util.NestedException: Could not load class: ep.UmeLookup required for execution of 'UmeLookup.isReady'
My second xsl stytesheet with a reference to custom class looks as follows:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:ume="ep.UmeLookup" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0" xmlns:xf="http://www.sapportals.com/wcm/app/xmlforms">
<xsl:param name="ume"/>
<xsl:value-of select="string(ume:UmeLookup.isReady())"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I developed java class (ep.UmeLookup), made a .jar from it, included the jar archive in a Library project and deployed the library to the J2EE engine.
It looks like my class is not 'visible' in J2EE engine, while in my opinion it should be. Does anyone know how to change that??

How to read and parse a remote XML file with Java

Hi.
Using J2SE v1.4.2, I'd like to read and parse a remote file:
http://foo.com/file.xml
Is it possible with Java? I'd be extremely grateful if someone could provide me any webpage showing a very simple code.
Thank you very much.

How about the following?
     import java.io.InputStream;
     import java.net.URL;
     import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
     import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
     import org.w3c.dom.Document;
     public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
          DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
          DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
          URL url = new URL("http://foo.com/file.xml");
          InputStream inputStream = url.openStream();
          Document document = db.parse(inputStream);

How to validate the Xml File With Java

Hi,
Can pls tell me. I want to validate the XML File for the Some Mandartory TAG. if that if Tag null i want to generate error xml file with error and i want move another folder with java. pls help me as soon as possible

Use a validating parser (any recent Xerces, for one) and switch on the validation feature. Very much vendor-specific, so look at the docs of your parser. Oh, you do have a schema for these documents, don't you?

XML Validation with Java

I have created a XML file with dom4j and the file confirmed to be valid when I read the file with Internet Explorer, a online XML validator and a free XML editor called "CookTop". However, when I attemp to read the XML file during the execution of an ant task I always get the XML parsing exception that one of my tag is not closed. I have even wrapped that test inside the tag as CDATA but that does not help as well. Do any one know what's happening? Here's my environment:
JDK: 1.4.2_05
Xerces: 2.6.2
Ant: 1.5.3
Thanks so much in advance.
I've been pumping my head into the wall for hours : p

Can i know where to download the CookTop?or CookTop2?

Mobile XML transformation with MS or Java parser

Dear all,
I would like to set up an easy development environment for Mobile XML. For this reason, I would like to use a text editor (like emacs or notepad), and apply the Oracle 9iAS Wireless stylesheet (XSL file) to the Mobile XML with Internet Explorer parser.
This works fine for a such file :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="TINY_HTML.xsl"?>
<SimpleResult>
 <SimpleContainer>
 </SimpleContainer>
</SimpleResult>
but does not work for the following one :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="TINY_HTML.xsl"?>
<SimpleResult>
 <SimpleContainer>
 <SimpleMenu>
 <SimpleTitle>TP 9iAS Wireless</SimpleTitle>
 </SimpleMenu>
 </SimpleContainer>
</SimpleResult>
I have tried different XML/XSL parsers (MS, Java, XML Spy,...) but I got each time the same error message : "XSL parser stack overflow".
Does anyone know a solution for this problem ?
Thanks !
Fabrice.

I am not sure what the issue is, however within the next week or so, we will be offering an SDK on OTN with a small footprint (30MB) dev environment for Oracle9iAS Wireless. You will be able to use any IDE or text editor you wish.

XML Parsing with Java - Only some attributes have start and end tags

Hello,
I am trying to interpret the XML response from a server after a HTTP request is sent to it. I have modified an example off Wikipedia below to give an example of what it looks like.
Example XML:
<Asset name="bread" prep_time="5 mins" cook_time="3 hours">
<Attribute name="Ingredient: ">Flour</Attribute>
<Attribute name="Ingredient: ">Water</Attribute>
<Attribute name="Used in Recipes:" />
</recipe>
I have been trying to display the above XML in a format such as:
name: bread prep_time: 5 mins cook_time: 3 hours
Ingredient: Flour
Ingredient: Water
Used in Recipes:
Right now I have been trying to do it manually using indexOf and substring of the XML text, but I would like to find a better way of doing this. I have found some examples online that show had to deal with cases such as
<person>
<first>Kiran</first>
<last>Pai</last>
<age>22</age>
</person>
but I do not know what to do when I encounter something like the last item, when there are no "Used in Recipe" items, and it ends with a />, instead of an ending tag </Attribute>.
Are there any suggestions as to how to handle the example XML code that I have posted?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

It is open to interpretation.

I was making some assumptions, since (as usual) we don't really know the requirements beyond a base technical one (ie "I have this, and I need it to look like this"). In general, though, if you have XML data and you need it formatted differently then I'd say your first port of call ought to be transformation.
As for maintenance, I'd say it's easier to maintain a stylesheet than to modify Java, which is why I say it ought to be the start point.
Of course, YMMV.

thanks in advance.

Ah, sorry, strike that. You want multiple files. I think the easiest way is to simply parse with DOM. [http://www.w3schools.com/xpath/default.asp] . And here [http://www.w3schools.com/xpath/default.asp].
You can output the various XML elements using a PrintWriter or creating a separate DOM document for each file you want to create and serializing that.

XML transformation with BusinessObjects Data Services

Hi,
We have a legacy web service based on JAX-RPC and the data retrieved from this service does not conform to the schema generated, so there's a need to retrieve the data generically(a complete XML body is returned in a varchar field) and then parse the data inside and assign to individual fields. For a limited period of time until this service is phased out, we need to use this service to retrieve data for some ETL processes. Does BusinessObejcts Data Services offer me a way to implement a custom transformation (for example, a custom Java parser code)? If it does, please advise how to find the relevant how-to guides, or any other means to get the data.
Kind regards,
S. Gökhan Topç

Hi,
DS offers the possibility to run a program at the end of an ETL job. So you could write your java code and let DS run it.
Maybe thats sufficient.
But i would recommend you check the "Enterprise Information Management" Forum, there are the DS Gurus located.

Xml parsing with Java

Hi ..!
I am having a small problem friends if anybody of you can just help me resolving this .
I am quiet new to working with parsing XML with SAX and Dom java parsers .
Problem is when we want to extract the Element name ,Attribute Name or Attribute Value it is quiet simple in Java to do so .
But supposing i want to extract the value between the tags of an element how can we do so either their is a simple method that i have missed or their is a tedious procedure that i am ignorant of.
eg- <Node1> this is my name <Node1>
Java source output -this is my name.
Thanx to you people for co-operating
Take care
Akshat

in SAX u can do like this
 boolean nodeflag=false;
 public void startElement(String uri,String localName, String qName,Attributes attributes)throws SAXException
 if(qName.equals("Node1"))
 nodeflag=true;
 public void endElement (String uri, String localName, String qName)throws SAXException
 if(qName.equals("Node1"))
 nodeflag=false;
 public void characters(char[] ch, int start,int length)throws SAXException
 String s=new String(ch,start,length);
 if(nodeflag==true)
 if(!s.trim().equals(""))
 System.out.println(s.trim());
 }here in characters method u can work with data

How replace XML Elements with java

I have been usint SAX 2.0 and DOM Level 2 api's to represent XML documents, which i parse with apache's Xerces parser... I am trying to delete certain elements and replace them with others, but none of the api's allow this the closes i have come is replacing attributes of elements....

-jverd
You might also want to look into jdom or dom4j.Thanks jdom worked for replaceing the elements and attributes...but when i tried to store the changes in a new file, the text nodes were processed. for e.g. if i had &#8217 the char ( ' ) appeared in the new file. how do i keep the unicode...

Read an XML file with java: Document to Node conversion

Hello,
I want to read an XML file and convert data into a Node instance because I need this for an XForm application.
My code is:
private Node workstationType;
public Node initModel() {
try {
//This one will hold the results
Document document;
//loading from XML File
String fileName="C:\\documents\\iniForm.xml";
FileInputStream inXML = new FileInputStream(fileName);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inXML));
document = XMLLoader.loadFromStream(in);
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("ERROR:" + e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace(System.err);
//Create the node for the root, 'typeOfWorkstation'
workstationType = document.getDocumentElement(); //A
//Return the root node
return (workstationType);
The problem: I can convert Node instance to Document instance (line A)
The error message is: "document cannot be resolved".
How can I do that??
Thank you
Sylvain
