XMLdatasets: How to combine multiple xml data sources??

What I'm trying to do (without any results so far...) is to combine data from two different xml sources.
I have one source with a list of cultural events (agenda.xml) and another with a list of contacts (contacts.xml). Each source has a column with a contact name <co_name>.
I use a MasterDetail layout. When you choose an event in the MasterContainer (agenda.xml), the DetailContainer should display not only details from agenda.xml but when the name <co_name> in agenda.xml MATCH exactly a name <co_name> in contacts.xml, the DetailContainer also display the telephone number <co_phone> from contact.xml.
I will put my code down here, I hope somebody can help me find out what I'm doing wrong. (I tried something with "getdata" but obviously, it doesn't works...)
Thank you very much in advance!!!!!!

create a new empty SpryDataSet.
var dsAll = new Spry.Data.DataSet(); // new base dataset
on your existing datasets, add onPostLoad observers, this are events that will be notified once the datasets has been loaded.
var default_obs = {
     onPostLoad: function(){
          // when both datasets are loaded, call out init fn
         if( ds1.getData() && ds2.getData() ){
               init();
Than we add it both datasets:
ds1.addObserver( default_obs ); // add the observer object to the datasets
ds2.addObserver( default_obs );
Now they will both call the init function when both the datasets has been loaded. The init function will create the actual new dataset. The data in the SpryDataSet is basically just an array with objects. And Spry has a method that loads an array in to the datasets.setDataFromArray
We are going to use that function to construct a new dataset:
function init(){
     if( dsAll.getData() ){
          return; // we already have data in our dsAll dataset, so no use to do it all over again
     var source = ds1.getData();
     var length = source.length;
     var result = [];
     for( var i = 0; i < length; i++ ){
          var matched_row = ds2.findRowsWithColumnValues({id: source[i]['@id']}); // checks if ds2. has a column with id: value
          if( matched_row ){
               var row = result[ result.length ];
               row = source[i];
               Spry.Utils.setOptions( row, matched_row ); // includes the matched_row object inside the new row object
     dsAll.setDataFromArray( result ); // set the new array as data
Something like should be needed to create it..

How to model a XML Data Source

Hi Experts,
I have to model a XML Data Source. Usually I have to load texts and attributes separately (for 'normal' data sources). But I have only one xml file. Should I design one 'big' data source and accordingly one 'big' info package for all the xml data? Or should I create several data sources for one xml file?
Best Regards,
Denise

hi Denise,
as far as i know,
the function xml datasource is generated after we assign infosource with 'flat file' source system, so if you do it from infosource of master data, then you may need separately as 'normal' datasources. if you want to go with the 'big' and 'big' (datasource/infosource and infopackage), then you can create a 'big' infosource with transfer structure fields sequence same as xml structure, and set the master data characteristics to be update as 'infoprovider' (rsa1->infoproviders->choose infoarea and right click 'insert characteristic as infoprovider', then create update rules for these characteristics and assign it with 'big' infosource.

Problem with multiple XML data sources

Hi there,
I have a template (i'm using XML publisher). I need to use 2 different XML data files in the same template, but i couldn't find any way of doing so. Can somebody help me with this issue please? You obviously cannot load 2 XML Data sources in the same template.
Thanks and Regards,
Luke

Is your xml stored some where,
then
Create datatemplate and use the xml as datasource.
You can create it using the following sysntax
<dataTemplate name="Employee" description="L" version="1.0">
<dataQuery>
<xml name="xml_emp" expressionPath=".//ROW">
<url method="GET" realm="" username="" password="">
file:///C:/dept_employee.xml</url>
</xml>
<xml name="xml_dept" expressionPath=".//ROW">
<url method="GET" realm="" username="" password="">
file:///C:/dept.xml</url>
</xml>
</dataQuery>
<dataStructure>
<group name="EMP" source="empxml">
<element name="NAME" value="ENAME"/>
your element here
</group>
<group name="DEPT" source="xm_DEPTl">
<element name="DNAME" value="DPTNAME"/>
your element from 2nd xml here
</group>
</dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
Now your two xml source will become single source for the report.

How to take XML data source from URL?

Hi,
I creating application which need to download some data from any web page. This page is creating via XSL (as stylesheet) .This XSL
process some XML "data source" and generate HTML page. I wanna ask if exist some way how to take this XML "data source"? If i used
URL and take InputStream I everytime obtain full generated HTML, JavaScript page - compiled by web browser. But if i look to "page
source" of this page in web browser i see just that XML data source which i need to take (only at start of this xml is way to xsl
style sheet).
But this problem i have only at my required page.If i tried to take another page with similar structure code, it was succesful.
Here is link : LINK
Why i dont have permision take clear xml from this page?What is so special?
Exist some way how to take this XML without generated html code?
Thank you.

I apologize for my english. I try explain my problem again:
At this url [http://eu.wowarmory.com/item-info.xml?i=33677] is web page. If you look at "page source", web page is create via XML and XSLT. I need load this data source. I used DOMParser for that:
URL url = new URL("http://eu.wowarmory.com/item-info.xml?i=33677");
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();
parser.parse(url);
XMLDocument doc = parser.getDocument();I get exception : Exception in thread "main" oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLParserException: Expected '?>' instead of 'EOF'
If i used it at another page (for example [http://www.w3schools.com/XML/simplexsl.xml|http://www.w3schools.com/XML/simplexsl.xml] ), compile was successful and i can work with this XMLDocument and etc.
I try load it by InputStreamReader too:
URL url = new URL("http://eu.wowarmory.com/item-info.xml?i=33677");
try {
    BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(url.openStream());
    String line;
    while ((line = br.readLine() != null) {
        System.out.println(line);
} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace
}i get only compiled HTML code by web browser. At second page i load successfuly XML data - not compiled by browser.
Is possible to take original xml page source from this page? And what diferent is between this pages?
Thank you and i hope, you can translate this post without headache :-) If it will be necessary, i can more specify some details.

How to create a report using XML data source from Crystal Report Designer

Hi,
Iu2019m having Crystal Report Designer XI R2 SP4. Iu2019m trying to create a report using XML data source stored on disk. This is a customer order report and the xml is structured in such a way that it has an order details header part (master) and then it has several order lines (detail). One order line can have several order line characteristics (detail-detail). So what I need to know is now I can design this layout from the designer. If this was done using views I can do it with sub-reports but using xml data this seems to be different. Can you help me to design this layout? I have included the xml and xsd as well.
Thank you in advance.

Chanaka

Hi Sourashree,
Thank you for the response and ideas you have given me so far. I can get the fetch the data from the data source without any problem. That is I do the following,
1.     New Report
2.     From Create New Connection-> XML
3.     Provide the u201CLocal XML Fileu201D and have u201CSpecify Schema Fileu201D checked -> Next
4.     Provide the u201CLocal Schema Fileu201D -> Finish
Then I can see the following under XML
+ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST
        CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS/CHARACTERSTIC_ITEM
And from here if I add the following three I can get all the fields I need to the report
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE
     CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS/CHARACTERSTIC_ITEM
Then I come to the Linking section. Here I canu2019t link anything. There is a common field called u201CInternal_IDu201D but I canu2019t link using it. So I get a message when I click Next. From here I add all the fields.
For this point onwards only I need help. How do I group, add fields and design the layout so I can get an report output as follows.

How can I achieve this kind of a layout using the give xml and xsd? Should I use grouping if so how should I do the grouping?
I have included the full xml and xsd in the first mail I posted but I canu2019t see it now. I can include that again if you want.

How to Write Log Message in a XML Data Source Report

Hi Friends,
Can anyone help me out what is the process of writing a log file in the XML Data Source Report. for eg: in Plsql we use FND_LOG.PUT_LINE to print the Log message in the Concurrent Request Output. in the similar manner, when we develop a report using XML, where we write Coding in XQuery of XML, what is the process need to follow to print the logs for the XQuery.
Any inputs/Suggestion on this Highly appreciable.
Thanks in advance.

Create an RMI application (for example) that writes the log, and let all logging calls call that remote application.
Something like that is the only feasible way that doesn't require you to have a drive on the remote machine mapped to the local one (which causes its own problems as you could have multiple simultaneous write attempts...).

XmlDataProvider .... is gone completely in my Xaml file. Why? How many different ways to deal with xml data source through WPF

I followed a procedure described in a book.
1. insert "Inventory.xml" file to a project "WpfXmlDataBinding" .
2. add the XML data source through the data panel of "blend for 2013", named it "InventoryXmlDataStore" and store it in the current document.
3. dragged and droppped the nodes from the Data panel onto the artboard.
Then I checked my Xaml file against the one provided by the book
Xaml file by the book:
<Window.Resources>
<XmlDataProvider x:Key="InventoryDataSource"
Source="\Inventory.xml"
d:IsDataSource="True"/>

<DataTemplate x:Key="ProductTemplate">
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=@ProductID}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Cost}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Description}"/>
<CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding XPath=HotItem}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Name}"/>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
<ListBox HorizontalAlignment="Left"
ItemTemplate="{DynamicResource ProductTemplate}"
ItemsSource="{Binding XPath=/Inventory/Product}"
Margin="89,65,0,77" Width="200"/>
</Grid>
my Xaml file:
<Window x:Class="WpfXmlDataBinding.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="MainWindow" Height="922" Width="874">
<Window.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="ProductTemplate">
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=@ProductID}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Cost}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Description}"/>
<CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding XPath=HotItem}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=Name}"/>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid DataContext="{Binding Source={StaticResource InventoryXmlDataStore}}">
<ListBox HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="370"
ItemTemplate="{DynamicResource ProductTemplate}"
ItemsSource="{Binding XPath=/Inventory/Product}"
Margin="65,55,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="270"/>
</Grid>
</Window>
All looks quite the same except the <XmlDataProvider ....> part under <Window.Resources>, which is gone completely in my Xaml file.
1, Why?
2, How many different ways to deal with xml data source through WPF?
Thanks, guys.
(ps My "WpfXmlDataBinding" runs without problem through.)

Never do yourself down Richard.
Leave that to other people.
It's quite common for smart developers to think they're not as good as they are.
I coach a fair bit and it's a surprisingly common feeling.
And to repeat.
Never use anything ends .. provider. They're for trivial demo apps. Transform xml into objects and use them. Write it back as xml. Preferably, use a database.
You want to read a little mvvm theory first.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_View_ViewModel
Whatever you do, don't read Josh Smiths explanation. I used to recommend it but it confuses the heck out newbies. Leave that until later.
Laurent Bugnion did a great presentation at mix10. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be working on the MS site, but I have a copy. Download and watch:

I'm writing an article at the moment which is aimed at beginners.

The sample is just a collection of techniques really.
I have a sample which involves no real data but is intended to illustrate some aspects of how viewmodels "do stuff" and how you use datatemplates to generate UI.
I can't remember if I recommended it previously to you:
https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/WPF-Dialler-simulator-d782db17
And I have working samples which are aimed at illustrating line of business architecture. This is an incomplete step by step series but I think more than enough to chew on once you've done the previous stuff.

How to delete XML Dat Source from BW System

Hello All,
How can i delete SOAP XML data source(6A *) from BW System.
Do I need to delte the generated RFC function module for the data source ??
Cheers
POPS

Hi Sumit Kalyan
Since your are using process order, I would like to know whether you are using process management function or not.
(Especially your are following GMP scenario ? This guide line is basically used pharmaceutical industry.
If you work with GMP scenario, before your are archiving your process order, you need to create electronic batch creation and archiving.
Then you can archive your process order and delete it completely from your system.
You can check whether your are using GMP scenario or not in your process order type.
(T-CD COR4).
If you are not. All you need to do is set deletion flag and deletion indicator to your process order and then archive your process order (you can use program PRARCHP1) by using archiving object PR_ORDER (you can call this object from t-cd sara or COAC).
I hope this information help you.
best regards

BI Admin Tool and XSLT transformation for XML data source - How it works ?

Hello,
There is a possibility to import data from XML data source using BI Admin Tool.
In the import window we can point XSLT file. What is the purpose of that XSLT field?
Why I am asking ?
I thought it is smth like XSLT processor, but simply it doesnt work.
What I did:
- I pointed XML data source file
- I pointed XSLT transformation file
- Click OK, and still get the message that the XML file structure is not supported
After that I transformed that XML file with some desktop XSLT processor using the same XSLT file, and I tried to connect that file directly using BI Admin tool.Then it works. So it means that the transformation is ok.
So basically one question comes to my mind in that situation:
What is the purpose of XSLT field in BI Admin Tool when it comes to XML data source ?
(it doesnt look like XSLT processor)
Greetings
/Michal

Hi Mariano
Why you need to use XSLT for transforming XML file into ABAP table
Code is a part of some ABAP report. Looks like it is reading a file from file system and updating table after transformation
If you have requirement like you need to read XML file and then insert the data into a SAP table
You can use
File to RFC
File to Proxy scenario using SAP PI.
Please provide more inputs on requirement to help
Thanks

Multiple LDAP data sources in EP7.0 SP14

Hello,
I am new to a site that uses portal and SSO between portal and AD LDAP. The portal version is EP7.0 SP14. The datasource is configured with 'datasourceConfiguration_ads_readonly_db_with_krb5.xml'. User path is OU=Users,OU=Finance,DC=io,DC=network and Group Path is OU=Groups,OU=Finance,DC=io,DC=network. The flag to use the Unique ID is also set to 'samaccountname'. The problem is that we also have users in OU=Admins,OU=Finance,DC=io,DC=network and OU=Managers,OU=Finance,DC=io,DC=network in the same AD LDAP that are not visible to the portal but we would like them to be?
It did appear to work if I changed the User Path to OU=Finance,DC=io,DC=network but I can not find any SAP document that supports doing this?
I have seen the document 'Configure multiple LDAP data sources for the UME' with the following link https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e1959b90-0201-0010-849c-d2b1d574768b however this specifies EP6 so I'm not sure if it is still relevant?
Also somebody did warn me with "If you change the xml file it will remove all current user mappings to the portal, all the groups mapped to roles will be lost and you will have to set them up again". Is this true?
Am I supposed to be using the SPNego Wizard as described in SAP Note 994791?
And possibly the following links for configuring and testing the SPNego...
Configuring and troubleshooting SPNego -- Part 1
Configuring and troubleshooting SPNego -- Part 2
Any guidance towards the best approach to solve our problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave,
It did appear to work if I changed the User Path to OU=Finance,DC=io,DC=network but I can not find any SAP document that supports doing this?
OK, I am not an LDAP expert, but if you just want to change your entry point in the structure, I do not see how this would be a problem. I do not know what kind of statement you would expect in the SAP documentation allowing this. Maybe this will answer your question: [Organization of Users and Groups in LDAP Directory|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/09/c5ee407552742ae10000000a155106/frameset.htm]
I have seen the document 'Configure multiple LDAP data sources for the UME' with the following ... however this specifies EP6 so I'm not sure if it is still relevant?
This function has not changed much since EP6, only the administration tools.
Also somebody did warn me with "If you change the xml file it will remove all current user mappings to the portal, all the groups mapped to roles will be lost and you will have to set them up again". Is this true?
It depends on how you change the XML file, but it does not sound like you need to do this, just the configuration of the connection to the LDAP, that is, higher in the structure.
Am I supposed to be using the SPNego Wizard as described in SAP Note 994791?
Only if you want to use SPNego for SSO.

How can i lookup a data source v5 in WSAD 5.1?

Hi all,
I'm using WSAD 5.1 to developer a web application based on J2EE 1.3 that have a simple java classes. My application uses a data source version 5 to have access the database. I?m using service locator pattern to lookup a JNDI but it dont work properly on stand alone java classes, only on EJB components.
How can i lookup a data source version 5 from my java class on WSAD 5.1?
Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Oh I did not realize that you were talking about a stand-alone application. You cannot use the server datasources in your stand-alone application.
You can use the Oracle helper classes to construct a DataSource on the client side.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/sql/DataSource.html and driver specific documentation to achieve this. I will try to send a few links, if I find any.
In a stand-alone application, you can use some connection pooling mechanism on your own.
The ideal thing to do is to keep your data access in your middle tier (EJBs) and call the EJB's. This way you can reuse things in multiple client tiers and use the container provided datasource and connection pooling mechanisms.
Hope this helps.

How to import multiple xml records into PDF form

Our organization needs to print and distribute serveral hundred PDF forms to our members. We want to populate the names and some other basic info at the top of each form so the member can fill in the rest and sign and return it. I have the one page form set up with the fields and it's connected to an xml schema data source. When I import the xml file it reads the first record and that's it - how do I get it to read all of the xml records into a copy of the form for each record in the xml data source file so we can print and discribute the forms? We are using Acrobat 9 Pro on a Windows 7 32 bit machine.
Thanks

Is this a form created with Acrobat or LiveCycle?
Acrobat would need uniquely named fields for each individual's page or pages if they are all in one file.
If you are processing one PDF file per individual, I would look at splitting the XML or FDF file into a record for each individual and them populating each individual's PDF form.
You could even use a tab delimited file and a template to populate the PDF template and then spawn a new page from the template.
With LiveCycle I would look at using a database for the variable data.

Delta queue & XML data source

Hi All
Can any body pls tell mme as to what this delta que ais and where is it used and how is it created,and also i want to know what is this XML Data source.
I need to get the data from XI,so i need this integration.
I would be very thank ful if any body cuold suggest me with a link on the notes ar step by step formatt.
Point's will be awarded,Thanks in advance.

Hi Jay,
From Delta queue(RSA7) ur BW system is going to fetch the records of R3 or source system.
After extraction process it reaches RSA7 from there when u triggers infopackage
the job is ready to flood ur D.target with records.
Ensure that records are there for corresponding D.source this has to be attained thro' various Update methods(v3).
DataSource that is generated in SAP BW on the basis of a file-DataSource and
that can be used to push data to SAP BW
for more info on creation of XML D.source refer the link

CollapsiblePanel with XML data source

I've been working with the CollapsiblePanel for the past two
nights. I can't make the panel collapse at runtime when I have XML
data attached.
I validated by downloading one of the Adobe Lab
CollapsiblePanel samples. I validated that I could make the sample
work from my Dreamweaver CS3 environment. Then, I added an XML data
source and retested. The panel would not collapse. Then, I took out
the XML dataset and retested the CollapsiblePanel. It worked.
Is this a design feature? I can't imagine this was designed
to work this way. I'm trying to create a scrollable div that can
collapse. I have everything working except the collapse feature.
(BTW: I tried defining a spry:region and spry:detailregion, it
didn't seem to matter.)
CODE SNIPIT
<div id="CollapsiblePanel1" class="CollapsiblePanel"
spry:region="dsWeek">
<div class="CollapsiblePanelTab">Standard Collapsible
Panel</div>
<div class="CollapsiblePanelContent">
<p>{feature}</p>
</div>

How does the xml data look like? in GML?
If the xml data set is not too large, maybe you can add them (after your application has parsed them) as additional MapViewer GeoFeatures in a map request.
Currently MapViewer (preview or production release of 9.0.4) does not support xml-only datasource.
We will look into incorporating GML or other standard-based xml datasource for a future release of MapViewer.
