XMLTYPE Updation

Hi,
We can extract data from a stored procedure parameter of type XMLType
using the function xslprocessor.valueOf()
Can we update the contents of XMLType in Oracle using a function.If any body knows please help me
Regards,

Hi,
I got the answer .It can be done simply by defining another nodelist and node and use the procedure SetNodeValue.Code is as shown below
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE PKG_XMLTYPE AS
PROCEDURE SET_STUDENT(objXmlType IN OUT xmltype);
END;

Xmltype update?

Hi all - I just have a quick question to do with XMLTYPE columns.
I have data similar to this:
<ITEM name="TYPE">
<NEW_VALUE>UT</NEW_VALUE>
</ITEM>
<ITEM name="XD_EOM_IND">
<NEW_VALUE>Y</NEW_VALUE>
</ITEM>
<ITEM name="FID">
<NEW_VALUE>A</NEW_VALUE>
</ITEM>and I want to update the element names - i.e. I want "ITEM name='FID'" to be ITEM name = 'DST_TYP' but I can't seem to find how to do this short of doing a find and replace as if the column was plain text.
is there something I'm missing?

Hi,
Try the following :
WITH t AS (
SELECT xmltype('<ROOT>
<ITEM name="TYPE">
<NEW_VALUE>UT</NEW_VALUE>
</ITEM>
<ITEM name="XD_EOM_IND">
<NEW_VALUE>Y</NEW_VALUE>
</ITEM>
<ITEM name="FID">
<NEW_VALUE>A</NEW_VALUE>
</ITEM>
</ROOT>') doc
FROM dual
SELECT updatexml(t.doc, '//ITEM[@name="FID"]/@name', 'DST_TYP')
FROM t;The 2nd argument of UPDATEXML is an XPath expression that selects all nodes (including attributes) to be updated.

please help me !

What happens if you move the view to the remote db?
and create a synonym for the view on the local?it doesn't work !
>
alternatively,
what happens if you modify from person@oraclelink in
the create or replace view personne_oracle?it doesn't work !
The problem is the dblink ! Without it it's work !
thx for your answer.

Hi ,
Connect to db using user 'u1', register schema to LOCAL and update schema-base xmltype success. Then I login in db as dba, update xmltype occus ORA-19007. If I register the schema to GLOBAL, using dba to update xmltype has no problem. But how to update schema-base xmltype who's schema is register as LOCAL by dba?
connect to db using user ‘U1’：

JDBC XMLType Insert/Update Performance

I am writing a backend Java EE application that inserts or updates XML documents into a table backed by XMLType. I'm using Oracle 11.2.0.3 with associated drivers and XDK, with connections obtained from an oracle.jdbc.poo.OracleDataSource. Unfortunately, I can't get my application to perform faster than 7 transactions a second, with or without JDBC batching. I've tried several different table structures; here are the two that have shown the most promise:
CREATE TABLE mrbook_raw
id RAW(16),
created_date TIMESTAMP,
last_modified_ts TIMESTAMP,
bk_typ_cd VARCHAR2(16),
bk_invt XMLType,
PRIMARY KEY(id),
FOREIGN KEY (id) REFERENCES mrbook(id)
) XMLTYPE COLUMN bk_invt ELEMENT "http://www.mrbook.com/BookData/Vers1#BK_INVT";
--Also tried the below...
CREATE TABLE book_master OF XMLTYPE
XMLTYPE STORE AS SECUREFILE BINARY XML
VIRTUAL COLUMNS
isbn_nbr AS ( XmlCast(
                XmlQuery('declare namespace plh="http://www.mrbook.com/BookData/Vers1/Header";
                          declare namespace bk_invt="www.mrbook.com/BookData/Vers1/InventoryData";
                          /bk_invt:BK_INVT/plh:HDR/plh:ISBN_NBR'
                          PASSING object_value RETURNING CONTENT) AS VARCHAR2(64)) ),
book_id AS ( XmlCast(
                XmlQuery('declare namespace plh="http://www.mrbook.com/BookData/Vers1/Header";

I've tried every storage method possible; CLOBs, Binary XMLType, and structured storage, but I just cannot get the application to go faster than 7 records/second.
I understand that this may or may not be an XMLType question, but I don't know where to start. From everything above, it looks like I should be getting good performance inserting and updating XMLType records; and I do indeed get pretty good performance from retrieval, but not from insert or update. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I might try or a reference I might look at to start?

Perhaps a more specific question... should I use PreparedStatements with SQLXML or should I use the OracleXMLSave class? Are SQLXML types batchable under Oracle?

Correct way to handle updates of XMLtype columns in standard tables.

Hello to whoever may read this,
I am currently studying the XML functionality of oracle DB for a uni project.
We have been asked to compare/contrast solutions to publishing product and price data for data stored in standard relational tables, and data stored in XML type tables. For extra marks, i am looking at a table containing an XMLType column for multiple items of data relating to the primarykey.
I have managed to get my head around publishing the data - pretty straight forward, but we have also been asked to show how we can update data, which isn't a problem within the standard tables/columns, but when it comes to the XMLType columns/tables, i dont have a clue.
At the moment i am working on trying to update an XMLtype column. The table itself is a "product" table, and contains product information, as well as an XMLType column containing multiple changes to the prices. In the relational tables, this "product" table has a one-to-many link to another table called price_history which contains details about past prices (which is populated by a trigger on update/insert of a new price). But in this table all the product changes are stored in XML format in the XML type column "prices".
Table columns: id number(4), name varchar2(25), prices xmltype;
example data: 1781, CDW 20/48/E, <product_prices><price_change>
<change_id>1</change_id>
<date_changed>2009-10-13</date_changed>
<details>price increased</details>
<new_value>234</new_value>
</price_change>
<price_change>
<change_id>2</change_id>
<date_changed>2009-10-13</date_changed>
<details>price increased</details>
<new_value>235</new_value>
</price_change></product_prices>
We need to give examples of an update. I have been looking around the net, and these forums for a solution now for about 4 hours. My own thoughts are that to update this with a new price change i need to, SELECT the current data INTO a variable, then concatenate that variable with the new price change info e.g.
<price_change>
<change_id>3</change_id>
<date_changed>2009-10-13</date_changed>
<details>price decreased</details>
<new_value>230</new_value>
</price_change>
then insert that whole chunk of data again to overwrite the old data.
Now im fairly certain there is some function somewhere which will allow me to do this update/insert operation without going through this process... After i am done with this update of XMLType column data, i need to tackle updating data in an XMLType Table with XQuery(? apparently), so if you have any pointers for that please let me know.
Could one of you experts point me in the right direction for this? Any advice at this stage is a great help and will stop me losing my mind.
p.s. im sorry about the lengthy description of the problem/solution required. How to describle something i dont understand? I ask myself.

Hi,
You really need to take a look at the XMLDB Developers guide.
For updating XML with SQL/XML see UPDATEXML and for XQuery see [Using XQuery with Oracle XMLDB|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14259/xdb_xquery.htm#sthref1673]

Updating a very large xmltype table in xmldb

Hi,
I am working on storing a large collection of xml files inside XMLDB (Oracle 10g database). I choose to use the object-relational storage instead of CLOB storage because of the type of queries that have to be performed on this database. The files were loaded successfully into an xmltype table and currently there are more than15million records in the database. I have built functional indexes and text index to improve query performance.
I would like to know the best way to run regular updates on this database(about once in every two weeks). The update xml files(Five 40MB files with 10,000 records each) contain both old records to be updated and new records to be inserted.
Each record has a unique id element which can be used in checking to see if it already exists in the database. So the update procedure would require a select on the database to check and see if the record already exists and then update if it exists or insert if it does not.
Any ideas on how to acheive this within a reasonable amount of time will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Uma

Thanks Mark,
I have modified the SAXLoader to use a stored procedure inside Oracle which would insert/update as the case may be. It's taking 10 minutes to load a single update file (50MB in size with 10,000 xml records). I have built a text index on this table and it takes 20 to 30 minutes to synchronize the index. I am relatively new to XMLDB and text indexing, and was wondering if there's a way to speed up this process.
Thanks once again,
Uma

it returns all fields with fieldId="text_-1661573009"
The update:
update document d set .OBJECT_VALUE = d.XML.updateXML(OBJECT_VALUE,'//field/@fieldId','Counter')
*where d.XML.existsNode(OBJECT_VALUE,'//field[@fieldId="text_-1661573009"]')=1;*
I receive this error:
Errore SQL: ORA-00904: "OBJECT_VALUE": invalid identifier
*00904. 00000 - "%s: invalid identifier"*
Somebody could help me to find the error?
Thank you very much!
Cristian

Hi,
I try this query:
SELECT d.XML.extract('//field') from DOCUMENT d
*where d.XML.existsNode('//field[@fieldId="text_-1661573009"]')=1;*
it returns all fields with fieldId="text_-1661573009"Actually, it returns all fields of a document where exists at least one field with fieldId "text_-1661573009".
That will make a difference with updateXML, because it won't update the nodes you're expecting.
I receive this error:
Errore SQL: ORA-00904: "OBJECT_VALUE": invalid identifier
00904. 00000 - "%s: invalid identifier"OBJECT_VALUE is only used to reference the column of an Object Type table, such as an XMLType table.
Here, you're dealing with a regular table, so use the proper column name, ie "XML".
Is this what you want to do :
UPDATE document d
SET d.xml = updateXML( d.xml,
'//field[@fieldId="text_-1661573009"]/@name',
'Counter' )
WHERE d.xml.existsNode('//field[@fieldId="text_-1661573009"]') = 1
;?

Update XMLType column via VIEW raise ORA-01733 :(

Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production

JServer Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production
I have table "DOCUMENTS" with XML_Info XMLType column.
I created view "DOCUMENTS2" as select * from "DOCUMENTS",
after, if I
update "DOCUMENTS" set XML_Info = XMLType(blah....) -> then all ok, but if I
update "DOCUMENTS2" set XML_Info = XMLType(blah...) -> Then I got ORA-01733 :(
Whassup, folks? ;)
P.S. Sorry for grammar.
P.S.S PL/SQL in Oracle Forms 6i do not know anything about sys.xmltype :(

I want to basically copy the data from my local instance to the remote instanceone workaround would be converting xmltype to clob with getClobVal() and then splitting (dbms_lob.substr() ) this clob into smaller chunks and inserting those chunks into some remote table and then in the remote database you join these chunks back together.

Insert & update XMLTYPE

Hi,
I would insert data's into xmltype field using a framwork where I dont't get an instance of OracleConnection.
Is it possible to do it as CLOB, get an instance of CLOB with a select like:
insert into test_cocoon values (?,empty_clob())
then
select message FROM test_cocoon where id=? FOR UPDATE
etc...
with clob it work fine but with xmltype I got an exception.
Thanks for your help

Perhaps a more specific question... should I use PreparedStatements with SQLXML or should I use the OracleXMLSave class? Are SQLXML types batchable under Oracle?

Updating an xmltype table

hi,
I have two xmltype tables(eg. testTableSB and testTableNSB), first one is schema-based(conforms to schemaA) and the other one is non-schema-based.
So the default storage will be object-relational and CLOB respectively.
I load the same xml document in both the tables. Each table has one row only(suppose).
Later I use the update statement with updateXML() in RHS as following:
update testTableSB x
set value(x)=updatexml(value(x),'/Company/Person[2]/@Degree','PHD');
update testTableNSB x
set value(x)=updatexml(value(x),'/Company/Person[2]/@Degree','BA');
Both updates work. From the documentation, I came to know that in the first table it only updates the node or attribute value whereas in the second update, the whole document is repalced because it is CLOB based.
My confusion is in the second update since it seems updating (in this case) only the attribute value.
Please suggest.
One more question, how to check whether the storage option for the table is object-relational or CLOB. One option is to describe the table. In this way, it gives info for object-relational only not for CLOB. what is the other way to check it? Any data_dictionary table?
SQL> create table testTableNSB of XMLType;
Table created.
SQL> describe testTableNSB;
Name Null? Type
TABLE of XMLTYPE
Thanking in advance.

Hi
I as wrote I never tested this possibility... therefore I did the following test.
A table contains the following XML data:
SQL> select extract(value(o), '/optw/person')
2 from optw1_or_ot o
3 where existsnode(value(o), '/optw/person[@id=5]') = 1;
EXTRACT(VALUE(O),'/OPTW/PERSON')
<person id="5">
<lastname>String</lastname>
<firstname>String</firstname>
<sex>F</sex>
</person>
If I access the underlying structure, the query looks like this (notice that birthday is NULL):
SQL> select x.id, x.lastname, x.firstname, x.birthday, x.sex
2 from optw1_or_ot o, table(o.xmldata.persons) x
3 where x.id = 5;
ID LASTNAME FIRSTNAME BIRTHDAY SEX
5 String String F
If I update the data, it seams to work...
SQL> update table(select o.xmldata.persons
2 from optw1_or_ot o, table(o.xmldata.persons) x
3 where x.id = 5) t
4 set t.birthday = sysdate;
1 row updated.
SQL> select x.id, x.lastname, x.firstname, x.birthday, x.sex
2 from optw1_or_ot o, table(o.xmldata.persons) x
3 where x.id = 5;
ID LASTNAME FIRSTNAME BIRTHDAY SEX
5 String String 06-FEB-04 F
But if I select the XML data again, the data isn't available...
SQL> select extract(value(o), '/optw/person')
2 from optw1_or_ot o
3 where existsnode(value(o), '/optw/person[@id=5]') = 1;
EXTRACT(VALUE(O),'/OPTW/PERSON')
<person id="5">
<lastname>String</lastname>
<firstname>String</firstname>
<sex>F</sex>
</person>
It seams that Oracle also stores "control" information in another columns.
Therefore the only way to add such an element is through the updatexml() function.

Ora-21700 when updating xmltype column of a table

Hello,
Can somebody explain why the following statement gives ora-21700 (object does not exist or is market for delete):
update translation_message
set translationxml = XmlType(
'<NPSREPLY DOMAIN="SWI" OBJECT="SUBSCRIBER" REQUEST="DELETE" RETURNCODE="0" RETURNTYPE="NONE" STATUS="STORED" xmlns="http://saly.bc/nps/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://saly.bc/nps/ NPS_Reply.xsd">
<SUBREQUEST SEQUENCE="1">
<ProfileData>
<ACTION SUBTYPE="PSTN">DEL_CNA_FREE</ACTION>
<DN>999999999</DN>
<RETURNCODE>0</RETURNCODE>
</ProfileData>
</SUBREQUEST>
</NPSREPLY>'
where id = 1926938
remark:
when changing
xsi:schemaLocation="http://saly.bc/nps/ NPS_Reply.xsd
in
xsi:schemaLocation="http://saly.bc/nps/NPS_Reply.xsd
the select is running well.
I will explain my problem a little bit more:
The exact oracle error is:
ora-21700 object does not exist or is marked for delete ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE".
The following peace of xml causes the problem:
xsi:schemaLocation="http://saly.bc/nps/ NPS_Reply.xsd"
The statement is running fine if you remove the blank after
"/nps/ NPS_Repy". So if you use this peace of xml xsi:schemaLocation="http://saly.bc/nps/NPS_Reply.xsd", the statement works fine.
My question: Wy is the blank not allowed in this peace of xml xsi:schemaLocation="http://saly.bc/nps/ NPS_Reply.xsd"
The purpose of the blank is to indicate that 'NPS_Reply.xsd' will be located somewhere in "http://saly.bc/nps/". So it can be that 'NPS_Reply.xsd' is found directly under "http://saly.bc/nps/" or some levels lower. According XML standards, the blank is allowed for this purposes.
regards, Els

Hi,
This schema location is only indicative and not used. The xml is generated by an other application and has to be stored in an xmltype column.

Updating the whole xml file in XMLType column

Hi ,
I am facing the problem in updating the XMLTYPE column.
I need to update the whole xml file

EMPLOYEEID NOT NULL VARCHAR2(140)
EMPCOM VARCHAR2(100)
EMPJAL SYS.XMLTYPE(XMLSchema "www.EMPSIM.com" Element "EMPJAL") STORAGE
Object-relational TYPE "EMPJAL_T"
I am able to form the CLOB object and trying to use this sql command
UPDATE EMPJAL_TABLE SET EMPJAL = XMLType( ? ) ) WHERE EMPLOYEEID ='emp1234';
Here I want to update the whole xmlfile in XMLTYPE column.
Error is - ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended
Please advise
Thanks

Hi Mark,
I apologise for this mistake. I am really putting lot of efforts and also worked/working in advance topics of XML DB.
Yes I am extensively using Oracle 10g r2 and suggesting others to use this
This time I had put more effort before posting ,I had a series of queries to resolve most of then were working , this was the one giving problem inside my java code
I am sorry for this .
Any how I made another query which works better.
Thanks
Govinda

Update XMLType

Hi
I have an xmltype column, which includes lot of nodes with name & value attributes
e.g. <xml>
     <node name=”node1” value=”val1”/>
     <node name=”node2” value=”val2”/>
     <node name=”node3” value=”val3”/>
</xml>
Can I replace all values with TRIM of the existing values in one update statement? How?
(I tried to use UPADTEXML, but since number of nodes is dynamic, I had to do UPDATEXML for each node…)
Thanks!

Unless I'm missing something MSFT are making it unecessarily complex by not implementing the SQL/XML standard...
