Xml, xsl, java and database

I have several xml documents that uses different tags to describe the same type of information. In my case they describe a row in a database table.
file1.xml
<therow>
<name>Jones</name>
<title>manager</title>
</therow>
file2.xml
<arow>
<employee>King</employee>
<job>manager</job>
</arow>
I want to use a technology for reading the content of the two files and generate a new document for each file that will use generic tags so the content of the new files could look like:
file1
<row>
<employeename>Jones</employeename>
<employeetitle>manager</employeetitle>
</row>
file2
<row>
<employeename>King</employeename>
<emplyeetitle>manager</employeetitle>
</row>
An then I can read this information by using a generic Java class and insert it into the database table..
I was told that the technology used for doing this was XSLT. I have been searching the web for examples and also tried to read some of the content in the Steve Muench book 'Building Oracle XML Applications'.
I have managed to create XSL files, but I would really appreciate if someone could show me a real example of how to do this, with the xml file, the xsl file, and a small java program to read this. Can anyone help?

Post your XSL files, otherwise we'd have to write them again.

Xml+Xsl +Java

Hello
I am looking for Java function which input are xml and xsl file and output is HTML file.
Thanks in advance

You need to use a Transformer, this will take in your XML and XSL and do the transformation.
You need to write your XSL to create the HTML.
XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type ="text/xsl" href='../configFF.xsl'?>
<ThinClient page="openff">
<Error>Error : Password authentication failed</Error>
</ThinClient>
XSL:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
<xsl:template match="/">
<HTML>
<HEAD/>

<h2>Error Report</h2>

Query resultset to xml using java and XML schema

Hi,
I query data using JDBC and I want to store it to an XML file which has a well defined XML schema. I searched a lot in the forum but did not find an answer. Please guide me to create this program.
I have managed to use JDBC to get result set but I do not know how to export is to XML using XSD and Java.
Please help.
Regards,
Ravi

I have managed to use JDBC to get result set but I do
not know how to export is to XML using XSD and Java.Export using XSD? Schemas are for validation.
Iterate through the result set, and build up the XML stream by creating an entry for each row.
Another way to do it is to load the ResultSet into a Java object and serialize that to XML using something like XStream.

Java and database

I want to develop an application software using java however i dont know which data base systems / software to use apart from mysql, and access. Is sql just a language or is it also a database software
please help

OK, that enough, but just to set the record straight. You said "SQL is a software too", no it is not. SQL is a language.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL
SQL (IPA: /ˌɛsˌkju??ˈɛl/ or /ˈsi??kwəl/), commonly expanded as Structured Query Language, is a computer language designed for the retrieval and management of data in relational database management systems, database schema creation and modification, and database object access control management
Some companies, such as Microsoft (not "windows"), make products, such as SQL server, with "SQL" in the title. But SQL Server is:

XML to Java and Back.

hi
I have a huge XML file (4 MB). I parsed it & put the data in a java object using SAX. its fast. Now I want to generate a XML file from java. I tried JAXB but it takes forever. Does anyone have any better idea?
Thanks.

Hi all,
I know I am the millionth guy asking this question but can I know a great way to generate a XML from java?
Thanks

Writing XML from java and import this into OpenOffice

Hello , i'd like to write a XML file which covers Text and Images and can be imported into OpenOffice. The Export to XML already works. But i don't know what XSL or other files a necessary ? Does anyone have a converter ? Or can gibe a clue ?

dunno if it is feasable with only an XML file.
i am doing this by generating an SXW file (OpenOffice) using JAXP for the XML content and java.util.zip to pack the XML and the images in the SXW.

XML to Java and back again

Okay, I've seen this question asked many times and I don't see a lot of great solutions. I've been searching for the last hour and looked at xBeans, XMLBeans, xStream, you name it. Anyway, what I want to do is model my XML and Java objects (if I can't auto-generate the classes) and then at runtime the XML should be loaded directly into the data model. I know that writing a custom parser is old school and there are tools to do this for me but I can't seem to find what I need. What do you recommend for doing this?

Check out the Commons Digester.
The Digester package lets you configure an XML -> Java object mapping module, which triggers certain actions called rules whenever a particular pattern of nested XML elements is recognized.
You can't get any better than this....in my opinion.
Good Luck!

3 tiers model with Java and Oracle.

Hi everybody. I have a problem with my work. I want to design a simple program follow 3 tiers model with Java and database is Oracle. But I do not know how I can design them. Please help me. It will better if you give some source code for each layer.
Thanks in advance.
Ky Thanh.

I'd suggest searching the net for tutorials. Pick out the things you don't know about and need to know (SQL? JDBC? Java? software design in general?) and google: tier architecture, sql tutorial, etc. Sun's Java & JDBC tutorials are at http://java.sun.com/learning/tutorial/index.html
Source for each tier? Read the JDBC tutorial and you can write the database tier source yourself. Learn Swing/Servlets/whatever you use for the user interface and you can write the top tier. The middle tier is your business logic, which is dependent on your area of business, and you'll need to know about the business and just general programming. Then if the tiers need to be distributed (hopefully not), you'll need to learn EJB or something.
I hope you haven't been given a task there you aren't ready to take on... Learning to swim by jumping into the river is a great way to learn in a school assignment, but you mention work, and learning that way at work sounds a bit risky to me.

Xml, xsl and database

I have several xml documents that uses different tags to describe the same type of information. In my case they describe a row in a database table.
file1.xml

<name>Jones</name>
<title>manager</title>
</therow>
file2.xml
<arow>
<employee>King</employee>
<job>manager</job>
</arow>
I want to use a technology for reading the content of the two files and generate a new document for each file that will use generic tags so the content of the new files could look like:
file1
<row>
<employeename>Jones</employeename>
<employeetitle>manager</employeetitle>
</row>
file2
<row>
<employeename>King</employeename>
<emplyeetitle>manager</employeetitle>
</row>
An then I can read this information by using a generic Java class and insert it into the database table..
I was told that the technology used for doing this was XSLT. I have been searching the web for examples and also tried to read some of the content in the Steve Muench book 'Building Oracle XML Applications'.

Guided research with Java and XML

Hi all,
I'm a last year student and now I have to choose a topic for my Guided Research Project.
My interest in XML and databases pushes me in this direction. However, I still cannot come up with an interesting proposal for the project. At first I considered implementing a "XML <-> databaseSchema" converter, but then I found out that many similar tools already exist. I have background in Java, PHP and mysql which could be useful.
I was wondering if you could give me an idea about a possible topic.
Thank you very much!
Regards,
J

For parsing you can use SAX Parser and for document generation you can use DOM Parser.

Without knowing your version, I just picked 11.2, so you made need to look for that chapter in the documentation for your version to find applicable information.
