XSL Replace Function
Hi all
I'm trying to convert an xml document from one format to another format.I'm writing a stylesheet for this.I'm kind of new to XSLT.What I want is to replace a string with another only if exact match occurs for eg:
if i'm looking for the string "input" in the document it should replace only input variable in the following string but not "input_array".
<function_code>
y = input_array[0];
yp = 0;
time_previous = time_array[0];
result_array[0] = y;
for (int i = 1; i < channel_size; ++i) {
double input = input_array;
double time = time_array[i];
double h = time - time_previous;
double k = h/2.0;
double A = k*(omega_sq*input - 2*zeta*omega*yp - omega_sq*y); //k*calculate_ypp( time, y, yp, input );
double Beta = k*(yp + A/2.0);
double B = k*(omega_sq*input - 2*zeta*omega*(yp+A) - omega_sq*(y+Beta)); //B = k*calculate_ypp(time+k, y+Beta, yp+A, input);
double C = k*(omega_sq*input - 2*zeta*omega*(yp+B) - omega_sq*(y+Beta)); //C = k*calculate_ypp(time+k, y+Beta, yp+B, input);
result_array[i] = C;
} </function__code>
,the replace function XSLT provides replaces all occurrences of input i.e input followed by anything.Is there a way to do it??
thanks for your time and valuable inputs.

Hi
I wrote my own functions to check for the exact match and replace but i have another issue,since there is no variable reassignment in xslt how should i implement something like this
replace_code = replace_all_names(oldname,newname,replace_code);
where replace_code consists my code replaced and once any replacement occurs i have to pass it as an input for the next replacement.
thanks

How to use xsl document() function with LiveCycle XSLT processor
Hello,
I would like to use LiveCycle XSLT processor to merge xml documents by using the xsl document() function.
However, I have not, yet, found clear reference information on the specifics of how to accomplish in LC. For instance if you have
a transformation that does merging using a standalone xml editor (such as Oxygen), than what is required to accomplish the same
using the LiveCycle XSLT service. How do you specify the URI of the XML document that is specified as an input in the xsl document() function. Your insight is appreciated. RegardsHello Steve,
I checked the reference that you cited (XSLT Transformation). The reference omits discussing how to use xlst document() function within a stylesheet. I think that probably means that feature of xslt technology is not directly available through LiveCycle. When I find a workaround, I'll post an update...for the user community that might encounter the same issue. Thank you for your response and insight. Regards, jb1809 -

Replace() function doesn't work in Application Designer?
I'm using PeopleSoft Application Designer 8.51. I'm trying to do a simple Replace function so I can escape single quotes rather than allow them to blow up the sql query.
&deptid = Replace(&deptid, "'", "''");
App Designer chokes when I hit Save: "Invalid function parameter type. (2,19)"
According to the docs I'm using this correctly: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26239_01/pt851h3/eng/psbooks/tace/book.htm?File=tace/htm/tace14.htm#H4095
Even if I try to execute the example right out of the documentation, I get the same error: REPLACE("StringFun", "Fun", "Number");
Is this a bug in app designer? REPLACE is a super common thing, it's not something obscure. How can this not work?
Thanks in advance.I figured this out. “Replace” is a strange duck function that relies on offsets. “Substitute” is the magic I needed, works just like I was expecting Replace to work. The documentation I was reading on Replace was for “ PeopleSoft Analytic Calculation Engine” rather than peoplecode. I’ll pay closer attention to that next time. Maybe this will help someone else...

Replace function not working for XML CLOB data
Hi all,
I am generating XML using DBMS_XMLGEN in oracle 10g. After generating the XML, I am replacing the ROW tags with appropriate tag name using REPLACE function. Sometimes the tag name is not replaced correctly.
Eg.I am replacing </Cargo_ROW> with </CargoDetail>. But sometimes in one xml, this tag is coming as </CargoDetROW> or </CargoDetaiW>. The XML size is always huge and the same tag is repeated so many time in the loop and in the same XML, only one tag will be replaced incorrectly. This also not happening for all XMLs.
If any one knows the cause about this problem or solution, please share the same.
thanks,Yes Anton, you are right..

Bulk Replacements using Replace function in oracle 8i
Hi All,
Iam using oracle 8i version and i need to use Replace function for bulf replacements i mean i need to replace around 250 rows. So please anyone suggest me how to proceed
on this request as iam using oracle 8i version.
Thanks!
SriniWrite one update statement.
The where condition is the filter what rows need to be touched.
The SET condition will do the data change. For example it could use the REPLACE function if that is what it is needed.
One single update statement over 20 rows would mean the task is done in BULK. 20 single updates that each handle one row would mean it is row by row = slow by slow processing. -
SQL replace function in JDeveloper
In SQL*Plus I run the following queries...
select last_name, phone_number from employees
LAST_NAME PHONE_NUMBER
Chung 650.505.1876
Dilly 650.505.2876
Gates 916.764.6600
select last_name, replace (phone_number, '.', '-') from employees
LAST_NAME REPLACE(PHONE_NUMBER
Chung 650-505-1876
Dilly 650-505-2876
Gates 916-764-6600
If I try to use the "REPLACE" function in the JDeveloper by editing the sql statement in the view object editor and run the page the results returned for the phone number column on the page are blank.
How can I substitute a dash for the period on the page?Try using AS:
select last_name, replace (phone_number, '.', '-') AS phone_number from employees
In this case is recommended for your VO a read only query. -
Replace Function in Cold Fusion
Hello All,
The code below does the following: It finds an item in Spanish (in this case it's GetBasket.options, 2) and add `SPA` to the SKU code.
<cfif ListContains(GetBasket.options, 2)><option value="2"><cfset basketsku = GetBasket.SKU & "SPA"></option></cfif>
How do I do the following?
The SKU code is a 5 digit code for all languages. For example: the SKU code in English is 902013, but the SKU code for Spanish is 903013. As you can see the 3rd number is being replaced with 3. It will be standard for all items in Spanish. How do I modify the code above to replace the 3rd number with 3?
Thank you all very much in advance!not sure if you found an answer to this question but if you use the Replace function you can do this.

Hi,
I have a database in TT Release 7.0.3.1.0 and other in Release 11.2.2.4.0. I need use replace sql function over Release 7.0.3.1.0.
I know that it not apply in this version but I've tried with ttIsqlCS in node with TT11 through connection in database TT7 but I received this error:
ttIsqlCS database_test_R7
Command> select replace('asjkhdfkhaskdh','a','1') from dual;
2818: Unknown function REPLACE
The command failed.
Command> version;
TimesTen Release 11.2.2.4.0
Any idea ??
Thanks in advance.
Babs.Hi Babs,
I am afraid that you are out of luck. SQL is implemented in the TimesTen engine/libraries not in the ttIsql client. Since 7.0 SQL does not have th REPLACE() function there is no way to execute that in 7.0 regardless of the client you use. You'll need to find some other option to accomplish what you require (maybe upgrade the 7.0 database to 11.2.2?).

Replace function in JDeveloper 3.2
Hi JDev Team:
Are there any global replace functions in JDev 3.2, for instance I have one word, say 'aaaa', in all of my projct files, .jsp, .java, .... I like to replace with 'bbbb'.
ThanksThe JDeveloper Editor provides Search & Replace functionality for files.
What I typically do is
Select menu: Search | Search Source Path...
Enter Search String and Change Source path
and other fields and press Start
Then the Navigator displays a Search tab which lists all files with the matching string.
Double click on first file in navigator and
select menu Search | Replace
In this dialog enter your search, replace, and other options-
In the Options, If you do not want to be prompted, do not check the Prompt on replace option.
Select the Scope of Global
Selectg the Origin of Entire
When you are ready press the Multiple button to make multiple replacements.
When you are done with this file,
Press Ctrl-S to Save the file
Press Ctrl-F4 to close the window
Double click on the Next File
Press Ctrl-R to invoke the Search | Replace dialog.
You should not need to change any options.
Press Alt-M to select the Multiple Button!
While this may seem more complex then a simple Sed / Perl / Python script, it is more controllable, flexible and user friendly.
Besides, you may learn a few JDeveloper tricks.
Good Luck,

REPLACE function in PSP for formatting
Hi everyone,
<p>I am coding PL/SQL server pages at the moment and am trying to produce an onscreen report.
<br>I was just wondering if it is possible to use the REPLACE function to replace a part of a string with the same thing but in bold?
for example, I have tried:
<p>
htp.p('<TD WIDTH="43%" valign="top" align="left">'||REPLACE(var_comments,'''TEST''',||'<b>TEST</b>'||')'||'</TD>'); <p>but it isn't working. I just wanted to check it was possible and if so, where am I going wrong??
<p>
Thanks in advance!This will work:
htp.p('<TD WIDTH="43%" valign="top" align="left">'||REPLACE(var_comments,'''TEST''',||'<b>TEST</b>'||')'||'</TD>');I also suggest generating your table HTML using the htp.table... procedures. -

Hi all, i am new to this forum and i hope everyone is doing great.
I have a question on CLOB objects.
I am working on Oracle 8i and i have CLOB object coming from DB2 data base.
Can i apply Replace or Translate function on CLOB data? Because i have special characters like %$^@#. I want to replace all these.
Can anyone help me .
Thanks in Advance.Hi
This article uses DBMS_LOB to mimic the standard replace function for a CLOB. It's for 9i but it may be worth a try to see if it will work on 8i too.
