XMLEncoder usage for Java to XML Serialization

I have recently started using XMLEncoder and XMLDecoder to perform Java Bean to XML Serialization and Deserialization. It seems to break when multiple threads are using XMLEncoder, even if each Thread is using a separate instance of XMLEncoder. I was initially seeing NullPointer exception and after obtaining a fix for that IBM Support, we are seeing various other exceptions like this.
java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Can not call newInstance() on the Class for java.lang.Class
java.lang.Exception: discarding statement XMLEncoder0.writeObject(TestObject0);

What am i missing here?

Just add an empty constructor in your class

How to specify maximum memory usage for Java VM in Tomcat?

Does any one know how to setup memory usage for Java VM, such as "-Xmx256m" parameter, in Tomcat?
I'm using Tomcat 3.x in Apache web server on Sun Solaris platform. I already tried to add the following line into tomcat.properties, like:
wrapper.bin.parameters=-Xmx512m
However, it seems to me that this doesn't work. So, how about if my servlet will consume a large amount of memory that exceeds the default 64M memory boundary of Java VM?
Any idea will be appreciated.
Haohua

With some help we found the fix. You have to set the -Xms and -Xmx at installation time when you install Tomcat 4.x as a service. Services do not read system variables. Go to the command prompt in windows, and in the directory where tomcat.exe resides, type "tomcat.exe /?". You will see jvm_options as part of the installation. Put the -Xms and -Xmx variables in the proper place during the install and it will work.
If you can't uninstall and reinstall, you can apply this registry hack that dfortae sent to me on another thread.
=-=-=-=-=-=
You can change the parameters in the Windows registry. If your service name is "Apache Tomcat" The location is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Apache Tomcat\Parameters
Change the JVM Option Count value to the new value with the number of parameters it will now have. In my case, I added two parameters -Xms100m and -Xmx256m and it was 3 before so I bumped it to 5.
Then I created two more String values. I called the first one I added 'JVM Option Number 4' and the second 'JVM Option Number 5'. Then I set the value inside each. The first one I set to '-Xms100m' and the second I set to '-Xmx256m'. Then I restarted Tomcat and observed when I did big processing the memory limit was now 256 MB, so it worked. Hope this helps!
=-=-=-=-=
I tried this and it worked. I did not want to have to go through the whole reinstallation process, so this was best for me.
Thanks to all who helped on this.

Help on jar file for org.apache.xml.serialize.OutputFormat

Hi all, I need help regarding on org.apache.xml.serialize.OutputFormat
and org.apache.xml.serialize.XMLSerializer. May I know which jar files
contain these? Thanks

After installing jdk 1.5 the problem is now resolved and after prefexing a few of the import statements with com.sun.
There are however some more classes as part of the Xerces 2.7.1 jar file as compared to the JWSDP 1.6 installed and this requires the xercesimpl.jar to be included in the classpath.

Challenging issue for Java and XML Gurus.Please advise

An extremely tricky and challenging code.
I have been able to add 2 XML documents together
using importNode().
xmlDoc1
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<i:Interest xmlns:i="common">
<i:Details xsi.type="i:vanilla.details.stock">
<i:Strategy xsi.type="strategies:call">
     <strategies.Expiry>2009-12-01</strategies.Expiry>
</i:Strategy>
<i:Ref/>
</i:Details>
</i:Interest>
xmlDoc2
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<i:Underlying value="KGF">
<common:Currency>GBP</common:Currency>
</i:Underlying>
My Java Code to append them together
NodeList list = xmlDoc2.getChildNodes();
for (int i=0; i< list .getLength(); i++) {
     Element element = (Element)list.item(i);
     Node dup = xmlDoc1.importNode(element, true);
     xmlDoc1.getDocumentElement().appendChild(dup);
Output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<i:Interest xmlns:i="common">
<i:Details xsi.type="i:vanilla.details.stock">
     <strategies.Description>Call</strategies.Description>
     <strategies.Expiry>2009-12-01</strategies.Expiry>
   </i:Strategy>
<i:Ref/>
</i:Details>
<i:Underlying value="KGF">
<common:Currency>GBP</common:Currency>
</i:Underlying>
</i:Interest>     Query:
I would like to add the 2nd XML Document after element <i:Ref> . How to do this? I dont want the 2nd XML doc after <i:details> but before it.
Please help.

Well. You say you want to insert a node as a child of another node, and it needs to be inserted before a certain other child node.
There's an insertBefore() method in the Node interface. Use that.
And if you thought that was a challenging issue then you might as well give up writing DOM code right now.

OracleHelp for Java from XML - Possible?

Has anyone successfully authored an OHJ system by using an XML tool such as Epic ArborText? If so, I would love to know the process you used and whether you accomplished this by using the HelpSet wizard or some other means.

This is primarily a question for authors using Oracle Help, but as a member of the team that develops Oracle Help Technologies I've heard about many customers using XML centric tools with Oracle Help.
An Oracle Help system consists of XML control files (.hs, toc, keyword index, map files, etc), HTML content files, and a generated search index. Since you can use the search index generator that comes with OHJ to generate the search index, that file is taken care of.
I know that a small number of authors have used XML editors to create the control files, in fact, we were thinking about distributing XML Schemas for these file formats that could be used with XML Schema aware XML editors.
I know that a large number of Oracle Help systems have been developed recently using Adobe Framemaker's XML support and converters that generate the output HTML and XML control files.
I also heard a while ago about someone building an open source DocBook to Oracle Help converter.
I'm not aware of any customers using ArborText to generate Oracle Help systems, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Certainly the idea of storing the documentation in XML format and then generating the help system from that has merit.

What's the best XML for JAVA?

Hi There,
My big question is what should I use for develop a normal XML document, that can:
- contain BASE64 strings
- support UTF-8 add attributes, etc.
I then want to pick this document and:
- do it's parsing (walk trough)
- apply a xsl to this document.
I've made this in C using libxml2 for WIN32/HP-UX, and also in VB using msxml4, now I must make the same document in Java, I see a lot of alternatives but really don't know what to choose...
In these languages I pick a structure that we support (similar to a tree) and serialize it to XML, send it as a string and then rebuild the initial structure with flaws. Each client can have a xsl file to show the information in the way he wants to.
So, I ask your opinion what's the best for JAVA (a fast learning curve is preferable, but speed of processing is very, very important)?
Thanks in advance for all the replies,
Lu�s Pinho

XML Schema for Java Bugs

I've just downloaded your XML Schema for Java software are have been systematically testing it with a relatively simple document. A few bugs:
1. the use="required" attribute of the attribute element doesn't have any effect (doesn't show any error message or throw any exceptions) when the required attribute is omitted.
2. If I declare an element like:
<element name="age">
<simpleType>
<restriction base="positiveInteger">
<maxInclusive value="100"/>
</restriction>
</simpleType>
</element>
Then, if I modify my xml document instance to say:
<age pointless="true">26</age>
This will throw a non-parser exception with a message of null, instead of saying "Attribute 'pointless' not expected", as it does if I redefine the schema declaration as:
<element name="age">
<complexType>
<simpleContent>
<extension base="my:ageType"/>
</simpleContent>
</complexType>
</element>

I'm glad someone else has noticed that unique keyref and key don't seem to be working with the Dom Parser. If they don't work WHY ARE THEY (key, keyref, unique) IN THE EXAMPLE'S THAT ARE DOWNLOADED WITH THE SCHEMA PARSER. In report.xsd, a file downloaded with the example, it makes clear usage of unique, key, and key ref. But if you violate the schema definitions in the corresponding file report.xml the parser doesn't complain whatsoever. The only time it barfs is if you change the keyref refer attribute to something other than "pNumKey". It obviously has to work. No bone head would send example files along with their product that didn't work.
So, if anyone at ORACLE or elsewhere has figured out how to use unique, key, or keyref please respond with an explination of how to correctly use them with the parser. Your name will be blessed throughout the ages as a most kind and venerable person. You will be a hallmark, a standard, a shining light for all future generations of what a human being should be! Okay maybe I'm going a little overboard but I'm DESPERATE. With no books or collateral on how this stupid thing works all I can do is hack.

Where to download java jar file with org.apache.xml.serialize.OutputFormat?

Dear Friends,
I try one program, it import org.apache.xml.serialize.OutputFormat;
but I cannot fine it after I google a while.
where can I find and download jar file that contain this:
org.apache.xml.serialize.OutputFormat
I use JDK1.6
Thanks
sunny

So, to clear things up, there is no org.apache.xml.serialize.OutputFormat.JAR
OutputFormat is a class.
As I said in my previous post if you go at the xerces project home page (here) you will find a compiled version of xerces [here - direct link -> (fool proof)|http://archive.apache.org/dist/xml/xerces-j/Xerces-J-bin.1.4.4.zip]. If you extract the archive you will find a compiled jar called xerces.jar. Open that one with winrar/winzip or whatever, browse to org\apache\xml\serialize\OutputFormat.class and there you go, you have it, just link this xerces library to your project...
PS. Try searching on Google for "Google tutorial"

ORACLE XML PARSER FOR JAVA FOR AIX

Hi people!
I'm looking for the Oracle XML Parser for Java 9.0.2.0.0C, my 9iAS is BI Installation 9.0.2.3, where can I get it? In the Downloads Section there is only the version for 10g, and the existing versions for 9i are not for AIX (my OS is AIX 5.2L).
Thanks.

Thanks for your help, I navigate through this link and, even it shows a table where appears the release for AIX (9.2.0.6.0), when I get to http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/xml/xdk/software/prod/utilsoft_java.htm
it shows me only downloads for Sun, Linux and HP-UX, but not for AIX.
Has the version for AIX being deprecated or something like that?
