Checking for empty tags using expression builder for XPATH

I am creating several filters in a mediator for several parallel paths. I am trying to route the mediator to the correct DB adapter based on what tags are empty in the incoming XML. The XML has 1 required tag and 3 optional. So for the expression, I am using the expression builder to load the tag name then putting either [text()] or [not(text())] immediately after each tag with an "and" in between for the 3 optional elements. The problem I am having is they always return false. For example, if I enter a value for an optional tag and put [text()] after it, it evaluates to false. What is the correct way to check if an element has text or not?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Its not recognizing the getVariableData func... instead try this:
string-length(xpath)>0
ex: string-length($in.body/imp1:manoj/imp1:C1)>0
It works... Happy deploying ... :)

[svn] 4184: Fix for @ see tag referencing a non-global package function generates an empty link@ href in DITA

Revision: 4184
Author: [email protected]

Log Message:
Fix for @see tag referencing a non-global package function generates an empty link@href in DITA
Also now the deprecated should show up in the property and method summary table.
and when @see results in an invalid href, an additional attribute called invalidHRef will be added to the dita file - this isn't picked up by xslt but will be consumed by FB.
QE Notes: Some baselines may need to be updated due to new attribute for invalidHRef

Update!
v3.1 has a major bug! Even though it may appear to work properly, strange characters may leak onto the end of URLs, and you may even get segfaults. Sorry I didn't properly test it before releasing it!
Technical details:
I calloc()ed the memory for the link href improperly, per:
link = calloc((noprepend ? 0 : urllen) + i - s, 1);
Once I fixed it with "+ 1", per:
link = calloc((noprepend ? 0 : urllen) + i - s + 1, 1);
it worked great.
I may use a method that doesn't use a calloc() in the future; this works for now, and I'm not gonna knock it...

Hi John,
Sorry to tell but tab completion is still failing on my Windows XP/Indesign CS5 (caught by Indesign).
I just saw your remark on coloring text, here is an example pulled out from Peter's book "ScriptUI for dummies":
var w = new Window ("dialog");
var s = w.add ("statictext", undefined, "Static");
var e = w.add ("edittext", undefined, "Edit");
var b = w.add ("button", undefined, "Button");
// The window's backround
w.graphics.backgroundColor = w.graphics.newBrush (w.graphics.BrushType.SOLID_COLOR, [0.5, 0.0, 0.0]);
// Font and its colour for the first item, statictext
s.graphics.font = ScriptUI.newFont ("Helvetica", "Bold", 30);
s.graphics.foregroundColor = s.graphics.newPen (w.graphics.PenType.SOLID_COLOR, [0.7, 0.7, 0.7], 1);
// Font and colours for the second item, edittext
e.graphics.font = ScriptUI.newFont ("Letter Gothic Std", "Bold", 30);
e.graphics.foregroundColor = e.graphics.newPen (e.graphics.PenType.SOLID_COLOR, [1, 0, 0], 1);
e.graphics.backgroundColor = e.graphics.newBrush (e.graphics.BrushType.SOLID_COLOR, [0.5, 0.5, 0.5]);
// Font for the tird control, a button. Can't set colours in buttons
b.graphics.font = ScriptUI.newFont ("Minion Pro", "Italic", 30);
w.show ();

Empty Collections and Empty Tags

It seems that empty collections from a cast or cursor result in an empty tag. For example, the following sql:select work.work_id medlineid,
cursor(
select
databankname,
db.accessionnumberlist_ref.accessionnumberlist accessionnumberlist
from table(dbl.databanks) db
order by databankname) databanklist,
cast( multiset (
select chemical_t(
wrkchm.cas_registry_number,
wrkchm.term)
from work_chemicals wrkchm
where wrkchm.work_id=work.work_id
order by wrkchm.term) as chemicals_t) chemicallist
from
works work,
databanklist_t_v dbl
where
work.work_id = 96264942
and work.work_id = dbl.work_id(+)results in the following XML:<medlinecitationset>
<medlinecitation num="1">
<medlineid>96264942</medlineid>
<databanklist/>
<chemicallist/>
</medlinecitation>
</medlinecitationset>Is there a way to not have these empty tags appear?
Thanks! -- John.

David, this is about understanding the use of, and differencies between tags and collections. This is a bit hard for many new users.
First of all searching for collections and tags can *not* be done simultaneously. You can either work with one collection only, or you can search for pictures with one or more tags.
Next collections should be used as either temporary work sets or for special occasions like specific vacations, trips or birthdays, e.g. "Anna 5 years". You say you have a collection named "Churches". I think would have made a TAG called "Churches" instead, because a tag is for general searches that can be combined. On the other hand I might have made a collection called "Church visits July 2005" or "Summer vacation 2005" or the like.
Another difference is that pictures in a collection can be sorted manually by drag & drop, while pictures found via tags always are shown in the order chosen in the Photo Browser Arrangement box shown bottom left in the Organizer.

Is there a way to modify the style sheet so that it transforms an XML document with empty tags as tag / ?

I have extracted some code from codeproject to
reindent an XML document. Does anyone know how I can modify the stylesheet to make it so that the transform of an XML file will result in empty tags showing up as <tag /> instead of <tag></tag>?
// http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/43309/How-to-create-a-simple-XML-file-using-MSXML-in-C
MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr FormatDOMDocument(MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr pDoc)

R"!(<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">)!"
R"!( <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>)!"
R"!( <xsl:template match="@* | node()">)!"
R"!( <xsl:copy>)!"
R"!( <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>)!"
R"!( </xsl:copy>)!"
R"!( </xsl:template>)!"
R"!(</xsl:stylesheet>)!";
MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr pXmlStyleSheet;
pXmlStyleSheet.CreateInstance(__uuidof(MSXML2::DOMDocument60));
pXmlStyleSheet->loadXML(szStyleSheet);
MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr pXmlFormattedDoc;
pXmlFormattedDoc.CreateInstance(__uuidof(MSXML2::DOMDocument60));
CComPtr<IDispatch> pDispatch;
HRESULT hr = pXmlFormattedDoc->QueryInterface(IID_IDispatch, (void**)&pDispatch);
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
_variant_t vtOutObject;
vtOutObject.vt = VT_DISPATCH;
vtOutObject.pdispVal = pDispatch;
vtOutObject.pdispVal->AddRef();
hr = pDoc->transformNodeToObject(pXmlStyleSheet, vtOutObject);
//By default it is writing the encoding = UTF-16. Let us change the encoding to UTF-8
// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNodePtr pXMLFirstChild = pXmlFormattedDoc->GetfirstChild();
// A map of the a attributes (vesrsion, encoding) values (1.0, UTF-8) pair
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNamedNodeMapPtr pXMLAttributeMap = pXMLFirstChild->Getattributes();
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNodePtr pXMLEncodNode = pXMLAttributeMap->getNamedItem(_T("encoding"));
pXMLEncodNode->PutnodeValue(_T("UTF-8")); //encoding = UTF-8
return pXmlFormattedDoc;
Or, if there is some other method for reindenting a MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr object where I can specify how I want empty tags to be stored, that would be great too. However, I don't want it to lose its status of an MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr object.
I.e. I would like to still perform operations on the result as if it was still an MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr object.
Thanks,
A

How to remove empty tags from XML

Hello,
I have a XML file which contains some empty tags and some values with "?". I need to remove all empty tags and tags which have a value "?".
Sample Data:
<a>

<d>world ?</d>
<e>oracle</e>
</a>
Expected result:

Thank you for your time.

Dear Odie,
May I make your example a bit more complicated by adding an additional complexType, please:
---Original ----
<DEPT>
<EMPID>1</EMPID>
<EMPNAME>Martin Chadderton</EMPNAME>
<SALARY>??</SALARY>
<SALARYq></SALARYq>
</DEPT>
----- New ----
<DEPT>
<EMPID>1</EMPID>
<EMPNAME>Martin Chadderton</EMPNAME>
<SALARY>??</SALARY>
<SALARYq></SALARYq>
<EMPLMNT_HISTORY>
<DEVISION>1</DEVISION>
<FROM_DATE>2011-01-01 </FROM_DATE>
<TO_DATE></TO_DATE>
</EMPLMNT_HISTORY>
</DEPT>
Your solution works perfectly for <SALARY>, but how would you suggest also to deal with <TO_DATE> ?
Massive thanks for your help!
N.B. Just to emphasise, in my case I have 3 levels (complexType > complexType > complexType) and many elements and I would like to know if there is any generic option to say
to remove all the empty elements from the result, as it causes to the SSJ (Systinet) Webservice to crash.

How to delete empty tags after xml-import

Hello collegues,
I'm totally new in this forum so excuse me if I make a mistake, but I've a little question.
I've imported text and images with a xml-import but sometimes empty tags (the colored invisible blocks) are in my text, with the result that I can't Find/Change on double-returns.
Does anybody know an awnser to this matter? I would love to write an apple-script that will find/change this so i don't have to look after all my pages.
Thank you very much in advance.

ThePictureCreator wrote:
...I can't Find/Change on double-returns.
What's your search query? I think you should be able to, with either a grep find of "\r+" or a normal text find of "^p^p". InDesign pretends like the tag-holding characters aren't there for the purpose of search. But you will lose the empty elements along with the extra returns. Maybe that is the problem?

Marshalling HashMap with JAXB 2.0 - empty tags & ill schema

Hi all,
I expected JAXB 2.0 to be capable to handle basic classes like HashMap, but it does not look so. I have two classes: SimpleNegotiationManager which has a property HashMap in which are stored the instances of SimpleInitiatedConversation:
package xml;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;
import java.util.HashMap;
@XmlAccessorType(AccessType.FIELD)
@XmlRootElement
public class SimpleNegotiationManager {
    @XmlElement
    protected HashMap<String, SimpleInitiatedConversation> initiatedConversations;
    public SimpleNegotiationManager() {
    public HashMap<String, SimpleInitiatedConversation> getInitiatedConversations() {
        if (initiatedConversations == null) {
            initiatedConversations = new HashMap();
        return initiatedConversations;
    public void setInitiatedConversations(HashMap<String, SimpleInitiatedConversation> initiatedConversations) {
        this.initiatedConversations = initiatedConversations;
}and
package xml;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
@XmlAccessorType(AccessType.FIELD)
@XmlType
public class SimpleInitiatedConversation {
    @XmlElement
    protected List<String> messages;
    protected String conversationID;
    protected int protocolState;
    public SimpleInitiatedConversation() {
    public List<String> getMessages() {
        if (messages == null) {
            messages = new ArrayList();
        return messages;
    public void setMessages(List<String> messages) {
        this.messages = messages;
    public int getProtocolState() {
        return protocolState;
    public void setProtocolState(int protocolState) {
        this.protocolState = protocolState;
    public String getConversationID() {
        return conversationID;
    public void setConversationID(String conversationID) {
        this.conversationID = conversationID;
}When I marshalled SimpleNegotiationManager while the HashMap was filled with several <String,SimpleInitiatedConversation> entries, in the output were empty tags initiatedConversations:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<simpleNegotiationManager>
<initiatedConversations>
</initiatedConversations>
</simpleNegotiationManager>When I used schemagen to generate a schema, it produced:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<xs:schema version="1.0" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:complexType name="simpleInitiatedConversation">
    <xs:sequence>
      <xs:element name="messages" type="xs:string" maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0"/>
      <xs:element name="conversationID" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>
      <xs:element name="protocolState" type="xs:int"/>
    </xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:element name="simpleNegotiationManager" type="simpleNegotiationManager"/>
<xs:complexType name="simpleNegotiationManager">
    <xs:sequence>
      <xs:element name="initiatedConversations" type="hashMap" minOccurs="0"/>
    </xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="hashMap">
    <xs:complexContent>
      <xs:extension base="abstractMap">
        <xs:sequence/>
      </xs:extension>
    </xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="abstractMap" abstract="true"/>
</xs:schema>Particularly the description of HashMap seems ill - there is not specified that the HashMap has keys String and values SimpleInitiatedConversation.
Unfortunatelly, the j2s-xmlAdapter-field example available with JAXB 2.0 is more complicated than I need. I just need to store/load HashMap into/from XML and I do not care what it looks like. Is it possible to avoid extending XmlJavaTypeAdaptor for a simple storing a HashMap into XML? Perhaps I use improper annotations in the source code, but I cannot get it working. Any clue?

Ok i figured out one way of doing this by using some classes from JAXP...
SchemaFactory sf = SchemaFactory.newInstance(XMLConstants.W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI);
Schema s = null;
try{
    s = sf.newSchema(new File("Sources/schema/test.xsd"));
}catch(Exception e){
    System.err.println("Exception e: " + e.getMessage());
marshaller.setSchema(s);
//MyValidationHandler class implements the ValidationEventHandler interface
MyValidationHandler gv = new MyValidationHandler();
marshaller.setEventHandler(gv);If anyone has something to add let me know!!

How to remove empty tags from a config file

Hi all,
I have a task where we need to run a Java program to remove tags which do not contain ny information from the config files. The format of the file is as under:
<roleManager>
     <providers>
          <add name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />
          <add name="AspNetWindowsTokenRoleProvider" PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />
     </providers>
</roleManager>
<httpModules>
</httpModules>
In the above lines <roleManager> is a tag which contains some data, while <httpModules> is an empty tag and does not conatin any data. The resultant should be:
<roleManager>
     <providers>
          <add name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />
          <add name="AspNetWindowsTokenRoleProvider" PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />
     </providers>
</roleManager>
Please suggest how can we achieve this?
Thanks in advance

I ususally do that type of thing with a state machine... read a token, look for what is next, and if it's the closing token, I don't write it out. You have well defined opening token syntax and closing token syntax, so it should be relatively easy.

Error during XML = ABAP conversion, empty tag

XML - ABAP conversion, empty tag

Hi.
Im sending data from a DB to a proxy using XI.
But when I get an empty response from the DB, wich gives me an empty XML tag the proxy shows me an error:
-PARSE_APPLICATION_DATA Error during XML => ABAP conversion (Response Message; error ID: CX_ST_MATCH_ELEMENT;
-Error during XML => ABAP conversion (Response Message; error ID: CX_ST_MATCH_ELEMENT;
-System expected the end of the element 'STMT_DC_response'
This is the message that originates the fail:
<ns0:MT_xxx_response xmlns:ns0="urn:s-com:xi:SD">
<STMT_response>
<row>
   <c11>P</c11>
   <c12>55062330</c12>
   <c13>1</c13>
</row>
</STMT_response>
<STMT_DC_response />
</ns0:MT_xxx_response>
In case that the tag is filled runs ok
<ns0:MT_xxx_response xmlns:ns0="urn:s.com:xi:SD">
<STMT_response>
   <row>
    <c11>P</c11>
    <c12>55062330</c12>
    <c13>1</c13>
   </row>
</STMT_response>
<STMT_DC_response>
   <row>
    <c21>P</c21>
    <c22>55062330</c22>
    <c23 />
</row>
</STMT_DC_response>
</ns0:MT_xxx_response>
The definition for the data is:
STMT_DC_response        0..1
row                               0..n

thanks for your help!
yes, The definition for the data is:
STMT_DC_response    0..1
to be sure I disabled that node, so I wont get it from the DB, and It was ok
this is ok:
<ns0:MT_xxx_response xmlns:ns0="urn:s-com:xi:SD">
<STMT_response>
<row>
<c11>P</c11>
<c12>55062330</c12>
<c13>1</c13>
</row>
</STMT_response>
</ns0:MT_xxx_response>
but this is not
<ns0:MT_xxx_response xmlns:ns0="urn:s-com:xi:SD">
<STMT_response>
<row>
<c11>P</c11>
<c12>55062330</c12>
<c13>1</c13>
</row>
</STMT_response>
<STMT_DC_response />
</ns0:MT_xxx_response>

How do we stop the XSL transform creating an empty tag when there is no inp

Here is a way to stop the XSL transform from creating an empty tag when there is no input.
1. Open the XSL Map in Jdev
2. Go to the Design Tab
3. Right click the tag in the target tree and select "Add XSL node -> xsl:if"
4. Create a new link from the source tag (the same that is linked to the target tag) to the newly created xsl:if

For anyone coming in to find this, I located my answer here:

Thanks for reading.
Sorry for the interruption.

Empty Tag in Site Report?

Here's a line of code - one of several operating a menu system:
<a href="index.html" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Image3','','images\\m1_act.jpg',1)"></a>
Why is DW 5.5 declaring this line as having an "empty tag" when I submit the page to DW Site Reporting?
Here is a subsequent line in that same menu op that apparently passes muster.
<a href="index-1.html" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Image4','','images\\m2_act.jpg',1)"><img id="Image4" alt="" width="143" height="60" src="images\m2.jpg" /></a>
Except for the <img> tag on the second, I don't see the difference. I don't know what I'm missing....

You're 100% correct.
