XSD/DTD Reference in XML ISSUE

Hi,
What I am trying to do. Lets say that I have an XML file on a machine locally, and I want to
parse that XML file and validate it against a XSD that is determined dynamically or
at runtime. What I am saying is that I have an XML file that may or may
not have a schema reference inside its top root node, but either way what I am looking to do is
to take this loaded XML file and set an XSD reference and then validate the XML file
against that XSD file ?
Even if I don't have to set the XSD reference within the XML file itself, I still need to validate it against
a XSD that will be choosen at runtime.
Any ideas out there ?
Thanks,

Adding DTD reference in xml

hi,
      This way i am creating xml,
        var cAcrobat += "<Root>";
        cAcrobat += "<Sample>" + "Something" + "</Sample>";
        cAcrobat += "</Root>";
        this.createDataObject("Acrobat.xml", cAcrobat);
        var Acrobat = this.getDataObjectContents("Acrobat.xml");
        cAcrobat = util.stringFromStream(Acrobat, "utf-8");
        var myXML = XMLData.parse(cAcrobat, false);
        var cAcrobat = myXML.saveXML('pretty');
        var Acrobat = util.streamFromString(cAcrobat, "utf-8");
        this.setDataObjectContents("Acrobat.xml", Acrobat);
and as a result it is creating an xml file as an attachment to pdf, as follows,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <xfa:data xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/">
- <Root>
<Sample>Something</Sample>
</Root>
</xfa:data>
but i want to add DTD reference to xml file before the Root node and after adding it should create xml like this,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
"<!DOCTYPE Some-application SYSTEM 'file:C:/SomeFolder/Test.dtd'>";
- <xfa:data xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/">
- <Root>
<Sample>Something</Sample>
</Root>
</xfa:data>
please tell me how to add this dtd reference in xml file, and whater i am doing above is correct or not?

Dom can't parse dtd reference in xml file

Hi all,
I am trying to parse a xml file (hibernate mapping file *.hbm.xml) using DOM. But itis getting timeout errorwhile parsing due to the external dtd reference in the xml file.
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC
    "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD//EN"
    "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping-2.0.dtd" >I understand that the program is trying to access the document and is not being able to do so. But I don't have any clue to solve this problem. I don't want to remove the reference from the xml file.
The following method is trying to parse the xml file:
public void parseXML(String file) {
        factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
        System.out.println(file);
         try {
             builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
             document = builder.parse(file);
             Element docEle = document.getDocumentElement();
             NodeList n1 = docEle.getElementsByTagName("class");
            for(int i = 0; i < n1.getLength(); i++) {
                   Element e1 = (Element) n1.item(i);
                   String nm = e1.getAttribute("name");
                 System.out.println(nm);
        } catch(Exception e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
    }Please help me on this....I am at no end....Please let me know if there is any method so that the parser will overlook this reference and will parse the xml file....or any other sort of solution....
Thanks in advance...

Overriding the DTD reference in XML

Hi
I have an xml file which references a dtd within the DOCType tag. The problem I have is that currently the reference is as follows:
file:///D:/castor/castor-0.9.3.21/castor-0.9.3.21/doc/mapping.dtd
which makes it specific to my machine. This file along with many others is packaged into a jar and deployed on a application server. Does anyone know how to make the dtd referrence more generic. i.e how can i reference a dtd which is in the jar file which is deployed to the server.
Currently i think weblogic does this in the deployment descriptors because it references a dtd on the web but gets one locally.
Has anybody got any ideas
All helpis greatly appreciated
Thanks

i dunno if there is a generic way of writing a SYSTEM uri that would look into a jar, so:
* using DOM, I would create my own EntityResolver that would point the parser to the DTD located in the jar.
* using SAX, I would do the same in the resolveEntity() method of my handler.

Thanks for the information. I assume you are intending using Schema Based Binary XML storage. Attempting to use Object Realtional storage for XHTML is not something we would recommend. I am checking with development to see if we have a way of using the DTD just for entity resolution. In the mean time the only other solution I can think of it to include the full or partial DTD for XHTML in addition to the entity defintion..
I tried this, but it doesn't seem to work

Thanks a lot Sir DrClap..
I tried to use and implement the org.w3c.dom.ls.LSResourceResolver Interface which is based on the SAX2 EntityResolver.
please give comments the way I implement it. Here's the code:
LSResourceResolver Implementation
import org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput;
import org.w3c.dom.ls.LSResourceResolver;
import abc.xml.XsdConstant.Path.DTD;
import abc.xml.XsdConstant.Path.XSD;
public class LSResourceResolverImpl implements LSResourceResolver {
     public LSResourceResolverImpl() {
      * {@inheritDoc}
     @Override
     public LSInput resolveResource(String type, String namespaceURI, String publicId, String systemId, String baseURI) {
          ClassLoader classLoader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
          LSInput input = new LSInputImpl(publicId, systemId, baseURI);
          if ("http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd".equals(systemId)) {
               input.setByteStream(classLoader.getResourceAsStream(XSD.XML));
          } else if (XsdConstant.PUBLIC_ID_XMLSCHEMA.equals(publicId)) {
               input.setByteStream(classLoader.getResourceAsStream(DTD.XML_SCHEMA));
          } else if (XsdConstant.PUBLIC_ID_DATATYPES.equals(publicId)) {
               input.setByteStream(classLoader.getResourceAsStream(DTD.DATATYPES));
          return input;
}I also implement org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.Reader;
import org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput;
public class LSInputImpl implements LSInput {
     private String publicId;
     private String systemId;
     private String baseURI;
     private InputStream byteStream;
     private String stringData;
     public LSInputImpl(String publicId, String systemId, String baseURI) {
          super();
          this.publicId = publicId;
          this.systemId = systemId;
          this.baseURI = baseURI;
     //getters & setters
}Then, here's the usage/application:
I create XMLChecker class (SchemaFactory implementation is Xerces)

          final ClassLoader classLoader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
          List<Source> schemas = new ArrayList<Source>();
          schemas.add(new StreamSource(classLoader.getResourceAsStream(XSD.XML_SCHEMA)));
          schemas.add(new StreamSource(classLoader.getResourceAsStream(XSD.XLINKS)));
          schemas.add(new StreamSource(classLoader.getResourceAsStream("abc/xml/AppSchema.xsd")));
          SchemaFactory schemaFactory = SchemaFactory.newInstance(XMLConstants.W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI);

XSDs/DTDs for BI reports xml

In Oracle BI Answers, in the Advanced tab, it’ possible to see / define the XML (saw:criteria, saw:columns, saw:views etc).
The saw:report root node defines two Siebel XML namespace :
xmlns:saw=”com.siebel.analytics.web/report/v1″
xmlns:sawx=”com.siebel.analytics.web/expression/v1″
Do you, by any chance, have a clue where those schemas are documented or where can one find the XSDs/DTDs?
Thx
Suneesh

Please post the details of the application release, database version and OS.
I am having a situation where the XML Publisher is producing XML output vs. PDF output for a particular report. It is generating PDF output just fine for other reports. Can you please shed some light as to the possible cause(s) for this? I would really appreciate it!What is the difference between this report and other reports?
Please see old threads for similar discussion -- https://forums.oracle.com/forums/search.jspa?threadID=&q=XML+ANd+Publisher+AND+PDF+AND+Output&objID=c3&dateRange=all&userID=&numResults=15&rankBy=10001

Validate XML document (no DTD reference)

Hi,
I have two files: document.xml and rules.dtd. My "document.xml" does not reference "rules.dtd", but I would like to validate basead on this file. Is it possible?
Is there a method like: boolean isValid(String xmlFile, String dtdFile) ?
Thanks,

Add a <!DOCTYPE root_element SYSTEM "dtdFile.dtd"> to the xml document.

File Adapter - Native XSD - DTD to XSD

Hello,
a. I have to read a data file using file adapters, which is sent in the following pattern (dtd below):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="US_ASCII"?>
<!DOCTYPE message SYSTEM "d3l.dtd">
<message name="ITEM" type="ItemArray" object="ITEM_BO">
<struct id="ItemRecord">
     <field name="Process_Flag"><limstring delimiter=";"/></field>
     <field name="Item_Number"><limstring delimiter="|"/></field>
     <field name="Attribute2"><limstring delimiter="|"/></field>
</struct>
<limarray id="itarray" contchar="*" endchar="!">
     <typeref type="ItemRecord"/>
</limarray>
<struct id="ItemArray">
     <field name="ItemLine"><typeref type="itarray"/></field>
</struct>
</message>
b. whose sample data is as below:
;P;|00030||TEST1|*;P;|00040||TEST2|!
c. I am now in the process of designing my native xsd:
i. I can either use convert dtd to xsd (or)
ii. create my own sample schema definition which is similar to the above data structure
In step (i), I could not convert the dtd to xsd, due to reference to d3l.dtd file.
If anyone can advise where this d3l.dtd file can be found and where I should place it in 'SOA' it would be really helpful.
In step (ii), I find that through the wizard I am able to create simple csv file styles, but not able to create the above data structure due to different delimiters (; and |) and also due to delimiter-embedding of data.
It would be really helpful if someone can advise on how I must proceed with this issue.
Thanks,
Santhosh

Hello Ramana,
As for step one, the 'd3l.dtd' is a file which all Oracle Interconnect DTDs look up to. I am not able to locate it.
As for step two, the data file the structure is of the following pattern :
i. entire data is in single line of the data file..
ii. first element will be embedded with semi colon
iii. the other elements inside pipes
iv. end of record is indicated using *
v. end of file is indicated using !
These are the rules based on which the data file is built.
I don't have much experience in creating xsd (except for simple native xsds that I have created using the native xsd wizard of Jdev-BPEL).
Using the native XSD wizard that is available with JDev-BPEL, I trust I cannot create complex data structure which is of the above pattern.
If there is a good tool/method through which I can create the xsd as per the above listed rule structure, please advise.
Thanks,
Santhosh

DTD for deployment xml file for providers

Hi all,
where can I find the DTD for the deployment file that is to be used in .par file for the custom providers for Portal Server 6.0 and 6.2. ?
Thanks,
Klara

in case you mean portlets then it is:
portlet.xsd contains reference to http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd.
in case you mean providers, e.g. smpleMailservice:
/ps-base/SUNWam/dtd/sms.dtd
or
/ps-base/SUNWam/dtd
with all the named dtd's
cheers,
Ulf

Ignore DTD reference in message monitoring (SXMB_MONI)

Hi All,
My Inbound Message (to be delivered to the target system) needs to have DTD reference as the target system mandates it.
In the mapping I have added the DTD Reference (<!DOCTYPE .../>).
Although the target system is happy ,massage monitoring is complaining that the DTD is missing when I want to display the XML message.This is a support issue as the inbound XML message is not diaplayed in SXMB_MONI.
Is there any way to work around it - Configuration or putting the DTDs somewhere in XI server.
Thanks in Advance,
Bikram

Rather than add the DTD reference in a message mapping, you could try add it in a Java module attached to the receiver/outbound module-chain of your target communication channel. This way the DTD line would not get added until after the message has left the integration server.
Check out the following guide:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/02706f11-0d01-0010-e5ae-ac25e74c4c81
Let me know how you get on.
(+ please assign me some forum points if you found this useful).

Make DocumentBuilder.parse ignore DTD references

Thanks to everyone in advance -
So this issue looks to be pretty popular, I have found a few solutions, but nothing seems to stop the downloading of dtd files, for instance ones sitting up on w3.org.
Here are some of the solutions i have found:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/155101/make-documentbuilder-parse-ignore-dtd-references
http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=284209&forumID=34
When I use this solution:
myDocumentBuilder.setEntityResolver(new EntityResolver() {
          public InputSource resolveEntity(java.lang.String publicId, java.lang.String systemId)
                 throws SAXException, java.io.IOException
            if (publicId.equals("--myDTDpublicID--"))
              // this deactivates the open office DTD
              return new InputSource(new ByteArrayInputStream("<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>".getBytes()));
            else return null;
});it still continues to download the dtd.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

XSDBuilder fails to resolve DTD references

I am evaluating XDK 9.2.0.5.0 for Java and have encountered a problem
with XML Schema support.
I am using XSDBuilder to build an XMLSchema object from several .xsd
files. The main .xsd file is secext.xsd, and this file imports other
.xsd files. I assign an EntityResolver to the XSDBuilder so that all
imported schema files will be read from my local file system, rather
than being retrieved from the Internet.
XSDBuilder does call my EntityResolver to resolve the import
statements in the XML Schema files; however, it fails to call my
EntityResolver to resolve XMLSchema.dtd reference in the DOCTYPE
declaration of xml.xsd.
I am using Oracle XDK version 9.2.0.5.0 on Solaris 8 with Java 1.4. I
have also tried version 10.1.0.0.0 beta and received the same results.
Here is the test case:

Multiple xsd's for one xml file

Hi Experts,
My scenario is HTTP to IDoc. My client is sending me XML file as input. I have got 4 XSD's from that XML file. I imported them into PI with giving references by using new importing method with refenences. I have got 4 XSD's imported succesfully into PI with the references in external references tab.
Tha problem is each XSD is creating multiple messages(splitted) in PI. I can't use any one message in mapping becuase no message has full message to map with the output. One message has reference to the other message.
Please suggest me how to proceed...
Thanks-
Ramesh.

There should be a Main XSD which will refer the other (4) XSDs....right now you seem to be importing the XSDs independently.
If XSD1 is referring XSD2, XSD2 is referring XSD3 and so on.....then XSD1 will form your Main XSD and then each XSD will have a separate reference to the next XSD.....all the XSDs need to be imported in XI.
For example, create Data-types DT1, DT2, DT3, DT4 and provide a reference between them....DT2 in DT1, DT3 in DT2, DT4 in DT3....ultimately DT1 will refer all the other strcutures.....I hope this is what you are looking for.

Data Integrator import XSD / DTD error

Hi experts,
Really need your help here! I am trying to import an XSD or DTD schema into BODI. I have both the XSD and DTD which I generated from the XML source file, using Altova XMLSpy. BODI is allowing me to select the root element, but when I run the import, the memory usage on my PC against the BODI service goes to 1.5Gb, after which the following error is returned:
Unknown error when importing metadata. (BODI-1112416)
When I clear this error and try any other operations in the DI Designer I get out of memory errors and I have to close down the application and restart. I am running a 4Gb RAM, Intel Core Duo, Windows 7 laptop. I suspect the XSD / DTD structure is simply to large for BODI to parse. The XSD and DTD is about 500Kb in size and contain over 16000 rows when viewed in a text editor!
Any suggestions on how to process this XML in BODI will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Johann

Hi,
