XSD embedded in XML file

I am receiving a file from one of our partners.
The file contains both the xsd definition and then the xml content.
Is XI able to read and process this? I have been unable to get the file accepted as a valid input.
If so, what do I need to have set up in the message type for the inbound file.
Also, the partner has stated that the format may change (hence the reason for including the xsd).
Is XI able to handle a changing message definition like this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Chris,
the question is what you mean with 'is XI able to handle'. By default XI does not look into the message content at all. Hence, changing the structure of that format will not harm.
Knowing the structure of the message is important in one of the following cases:
1. You want to generate a proxy for the message (ABAP or java). I assume you do not want to do this.
2. You want to access data in the message via xpath. This is normally done for defining content-dependend conditions (used e.g. in routing) but may also be used in business processes.
If you do this it has to be assured that the xpath remains stable. That means that at least the path to the data you extract via this xpath does not change.
3. You want to define a mapping. If you use the graphical mapping tool you have to provide the structure of the message you want to map (either by providing an XSD definition or by providing a sample message). If the structure of the message is changed there are good chances that such a Message Mapping will no longer work.
(This depends on the kind of changes that have been applied.)
If you do your mapping via java, XSLT, or ABAP again XI does not mind when the structure changes. Anyway, I can hardly imagine how you can program your mapping such that it automatically adapts to changing message structures.

DTD and XSD Validation for xml file

hi kindly reply to this mail guru'ssss
i am facing a problem in parising a xml file against dtd and xsd.
i have the dtd which contains only enitities that can be present in the xml file and the xsd file for validation against elements and attribute.
when DTD is present then it is throwing errors like the elements should be declared.
when i take out the doctype line and validate against schema its throwing the error that particular entity is not found or declared.
public Vector validateSchema(String SchemaUrl, String XmlDocumentUrl)
      SAXParser parser =new SAXParser();
     try{
         //parser.setNamespaceAware (true);
         //parser.s
         parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation",true);
         parser.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema",true);

        // parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes", true);
        // System.out.println(parser.getDTDHandler());
        // UnparsedCache cache = new UnparsedCache();
       // parser.setDTDHandler(cache);
         InputSource inputSource =new InputSource(new java.io.FileInputStream(new java.io.File(XmlDocumentUrl)));
       // parser.setDTDHandler(new myDTDHandler());
         //parser.setEntityResolver(new CustomResolver());
     // parser.setContentHandler(this);
         Validator handler=new Validator();
         parser.setErrorHandler(handler);
         parser.parse(inputSource);
         if(handler.validationError==true)
           System.out.println("XML Document is not valid");
         else
           System.out.println("XML Document is valid");
         for(int i=0;i<ErrorLines.size();i++){
             System.out.println(ErrorLines.elementAt(i));
   }catch(java.io.IOException ioe){
     System.out.println("IOException"+ioe.getMessage());
   }catch (SAXParseException e) {
     System.out.println("SAXParseException "+e.getMessage());
}catch (SAXException e) {
     System.out.println("SAXException"+e.getMessage());
     return ErrorLines;
what could be soln to this.

Missing XSD line in XML file - how to add it?

Dear all,
We're trying to add in the XSD information to a file generated from R/3 by a standard program, which the developers don't want to adapt, as it's used by several other programs. We'd like to do this in XI - does anyone know how or have any experience about why this would be a bad idea?
Many thanks in advance,
Lisa Howdle

Hi Lisa,
What I understood from your question is: SAP is generating a file and you want to add few more things to that file in XI.
If we both are on the same page then you can create a xsd or extend the current xsd with the additional fields and then can load the file and send across XI.
If we are not on the same page then can you throw some more light on this?

XSD schema to xml file generation using C#

Hi fellow developers,
I need small help with my current scenario.
I have 2 xsd schemas one is input and other is output.
Now my requirement is based on those xsd template or structure, i need to write a C# code that takes the 1 xsd template as input in xml format and then do some mapping and then set that values to 2 xsd template in xml format.
Can you please guide or assist in this regards ??
It would be helpful if we have the flexibility of configuring the schema properties.

Conversion of xml file to xsd

Hi SapAll.
i have got a requirement in an IDOC To xml File Interface where i need to create a structure for the target xml file .
here i have sample xml file ,so i just want to know if there is any other way to generate xsd from the xml file instead of creating strucure in PI.i mean is there any website to do this ?.
if i can get the xsd from the sample xml file then i can just import that xsd directly into External Definition for the target xml file structure

Hi
but when i imported the the updated xsd into External definition it raises the error as below
Unable to convert imported document to WSDL
You might have done any syntax error,make sure you insert the required field properly in the exported XSD.
If you have visual studio 2005 , in your PC then you can open the XSD using that and edit in a proper format.
Its good if you have XML SPY , you can check the syntax correctness and validate the XSD before importing.
check the syntax required by referring tohttp://www.w3schools.com/Schema/schema_simple_attributes.asp
And also make sure while importing you choose "xsd" instead of wsdl which is the default option for importing
external definition.

I am not sure what we are missing in XSD file that the XML output is not getting transformed correctly...although we tried transforming the XML output by removing some information in XML output above and it was getting trasformed properly..
We remove
1. xmlns = "http://tempuri.org/Projectix20/SOAPAccess" from <ExecuteSQLToXMLResponse xmlns = "http://tempuri.org/Projectix20/SOAPAccess" >
2. xmlns = "" from <NewDataSet xmlns = "" >
3 remove <parameters > and </parameters > tags from output and the XML Output is getting tranformed correctly.
Please let us know if we can transform the XML Output without requiring these removals.
Thanks,
Pawan

Could you clarify some things? You are saying you are trying to transform the xml output of a webservice with an xsd, but an xsd is a schema that describes the allowed format of a xml file. If you want to transform xml from one format to an other (from one xsd to an other) you have to use a xsl file. You can make and test this with JDeveloper. Are you calling the webservice from esb or bpel?

Create XML File from a specified XSD file

Hi,
I'd like to create an XML document with java. BUT How can we "bind" this creation with a XSD file. Hence, the creation may fail if the XSD binded file is not respected.
So I know how to create XML file but not bind to this creation my proper XSD file (XML schema). With which tool can I do this ?
Thanks.

Create XML file from XSD

Hello,
can anybody help me with generating an empty tagged XML file from a XSD file. Any sample java code will be highly appreciated.
Thanx in advance.

Apache XML Beans presents a way to compile the XSD Schema and generate Java classes for each element defined in the schema. With these interface you can then create new XML instances from the schema. (http://xmlbeans.apache.org/)

How to generate an XML file from SSIS (based on an XSD)?

I have an XSD that describes an XML format. I also have a sample XML file as well from the XSD. I am trying to understand SSIS's capability to generate the XML file in an ETL process. I would need to create the XML file based on the XSD that
I have. It is safe to assume that all the data elements are in the DB that I am incorporating in the ETL and it is also safe to assume that the data in the XML may be from multiple different tables (so massaging is probably necessary).
Would this be a job for C#/VB or can I do this through an SSIS process/task? Please help me understand my options. Thanks.

Dear All,
Indeed the post by RamJaddu did not answer the question. I am having the same issue: I have been provided an .xsd file which contains a data schema, and I have all of the necessary
data in a .mdf file in order to create the required .xml file. Having queried SQL Server and received my data in "myDataSet" I can use C# to create the .xml ignoring the schema using
string strSchemaFile = @"F:\Documents\UserCost\VictorianDataCollection\VCDCSchema_v2.xsd";
string strXmlFile = "testXmlExport.xml";
myDataSet.WriteXmlSchema(strSchemaFile);
myDataSet.WriteXml(strXmlFile, XmlWriteMode.IgnoreSchema);
but how do I export the .xml file so that is conforms with the .xsd format?
If any of you have worked this out the answer would be most appreciated.
All the best,
Nick

Converting XML file to DTD or XSD file

Hi everyone,
We're currently doing an IDOC to File. The file should be in XML format. Right now, we have a sample XML file. We need to convert the file to DTD or XSD and then upload this in XI to be able to get it structure. We've tried different conversion tools to do this, however, the converted DTD/XSD file still has errors when we load it to XI. What we're thinking is to create a data type to achieve this. These are some of the fields in the file.
