XSLT Mapper with BPEL??

Hi there - I was advised by PeopleSoft tech support that JDeveloper contained an "XSLT generator" where you could put two XML files side by side and drag & drop fields between them to generate XSLT automagically. Turns out this is NOT included in JDeveloper, but I've heard that it is part of BPEL.
Can anyone confirm this - if so, how would I install BPEL (is it an extension of JDeveloper?)
Thanks, and forgive my ignorance!
Cheers, Paul

Paul:
BPEL Designer is not part of JDeveloper 10.1.3 EA, but word on the street is that it will be when JDev 10.1.3 goes production. My sense is this might be soon (weeks rather than months) but I have no inside information to that effect, only a nose in the wind...
When you download the current edition of the Designer, it will come already integrated into JDeveloper 10.1.2. You get the whole kit and kaboodle. I currently have 3 installs of JDeveloper: 1) 10.1.2 standalone, 2) 10.1.2 with BPEL Designer integrated, and 3) 10.1.3 EA. I could probably ditch the first one, but there's something weird about using JDev for non-BPEL work and having the BPEL Designer so prominent in the tool.
Anyway, blah, blah, blah. Good luck with your exploring.

How to use xslt mapper with sequence occurences

I'm using Bpel process manager.
I'm trying to use multiple partname fields in my xsd. I'have defined a sequence occurence in my xsd.
In the xslt mapper I see just one partname. How can I map initials, nickname, fullname etc to the 'different' partnames while I just see one.
I'hope somebody can help me?
Jasper Goede

I use the following xsd (just part of the whole xsd):
<xsd:complexType name="nameType">
<xsd:sequence>
     <xsd:element name="partname" type="partnameType" minOccurs="3" maxOccurs="5"/>
     </xsd:sequence>
     </xsd:complexType>
     <xsd:complexType name="partnameType">
     <xsd:sequence>
     <xsd:element name="typename" type="typenamenameType"/>
     <xsd:element name="text" type="nametextType"/>
     </xsd:sequence>
     </xsd:complexType>
In the xslt mapper I just see one text field. So I can connect only nickname to the text field. I suspect more text fields.

XSLT mapping with bpel varable

Hi Experts,
I have two schemas (source and destination) from where I want to map and create xsl.However while doing mapping I need a variable (ll be data collection from db adapter) also passed to xsl mapping and hence forth using the variable I have the logic.How I ll handle this?
Cheers-Aswini

Drop a transform activity, add the variables which you want on the sources side and add the target variable(there can be only one target variable attached) and in the XSL, use the xsl constructs and other string functions to transform the data as required.

XSLT transformation in BPEL

Hi all
How come most of the BPEL XPath expressions can't be used in a stylesheet, with a PerformXSLT()? It would be nice if you could read preference values from bpel.xml within a stylesheet.
Also, the xslt mapper in JDeveloper is a bit limited, many complex stylesheets cannot be shown with the mapper. Would it be possible to improve the mapper, perhaps just show a "black-box" for the unsupported constructions in the stylesheet?
cheers
/Stig

Stig,
a lot of issues have been fixed with 10.1.3.1 - which is currently in preview - and the reason why you cannot sue most of the bpel ones, is because we provide a special interface that needs to be implemented, and is filled inside the engine only ..

How to do closing tag: tag /tag instead of tag/ in jdev xslt mapper

Hi!
We have commercial systems, which cannot work with short closing tags for empty nodes.
Xslt mapper for oracle mediator optimize everytime to short closing tag, when node content is empty.
Is there a property or technique to achieve long closing tags?
Kind regards

Can not find xslt mapper

Hi ,
I need to use the xslt mapper to transform the xml from site A to the xml structure that site B can accept. The documents mention that the xslt mapper is the new featrue for JDeveloper. I download the 11GR2 from Oracle and can not find the tool in it. Some posts said that it is the feature in 10G and then i continue to download the 10G JDV but i can not find this tool also.
Does anyone use this feature and can give me some suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

goto the project properties.. Run/ Debugs Profile -> Default - Edit -> Launch Settngs [XSLT]
here provide input and output xml file..
if you want a visual transformation then you have to use.. SOA Suite.. BPEL

XSLT Mapper - Transform - Error when using remote WSDL/XSD

Whenever I attempt to use JDeveloper built in XSLT Mapper on a remote WSDL service the mapper either gives me a blank mapper screen or throws a error.
But when I pull the WSDLS and the XSDs into JDeveloper and use those for my Partner links the mapper does not have any issues.
The WSDLS and XSDs are being generated by Weblogic 10.3 and the SOA version I'm using is 11g. Everything is the newest download of 11g as of about 3 days ago.
Is there a known issue with the XSLT mapper or am I doing something wrong?
If you need any other information just ask thank you.

The XSLT service is configurable.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/LiveCycle/9.5/WorkbenchHelp/WS92d06802c76abadb-1cc35bda128261a 20dd-6750.html
1) Stop LiveCycle.
2) Add the .jars of your XSLT processor of choice to the LiveCycle server lib folder.
3) Restart LiveCycle.
4) Go to Workbench and stop the XSLT service. Right-click on XSLTService:1.0 and Edit Service Configuration.
5) Enter the factory name for the given XSLT processor. I think for Xalan 2.7.1 it is org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl (but I could be wrong).
6) Restart the service.

XSLT Mapper: a lot of unused import namespaces

Hi.
The only way I have found to substitute an "any" element with a particular one from other schema in the XSLT mapper is to import the schemas in the main one. The problem is when you import a lot of schemas, the result mapper defines all these namespaces at the root level of the xslt (just in case), whether they are used or not. That produces an unnecessary overhead in the xslt file size.
Is there any way to clean up the result mapper, so only the needed namespaces will be defined?
It could seem it is not very important, but now I have 150 namespaces defined, when only 7 are used.
Thanks.
Ramon
Edited by: Ramon Gordillo on Jun 6, 2011 5:19 PM

Hi.
I have been watching for some solutions, like for example the wtp for eclipse, which allows you to select the namespaces and clean them manually (without further checks than a valid XML), but all of the solutions falls in the "select" expressions with xpaths referring namespaces (and some of them, also with QNames elements).
Any help? Oracle masters?

XSLT Mapper doesn't support xsi:type

I'm starting to think that XSLT Mapper supports only the basic features of XML Schema ...
It (XSLT Mapper in JDeveloper) does not seem to support mapping to generate this kind of element (cannot do it in Design view, when added to the Source view, cannot go back to Design view):
<HighLevel:ParentEntity xsi:type="HighLevel:AChildEntity" xmlns:HighLevel="someNamespace">
<A>ABC</A>
<B>1</B>
<FromAChildEntity>ABCDE</FromAChildEntity>
</HighLevel:ParentEntity>
If we leave this in Source view and run the xsl, the resulting XML has a validation error, the last element (FromAChildEntity is not known). The XML is valid in XML Spy.
This problem combines with not being able to map two source elements to one target element, makes XSLT Mapper not able to deal with XML Schema inheritance at all.... ?

I just want to reformat the XML from the original message (didn't realize I had to escape some of the characters). This is the XML that cannot be validated by JDeveloper):
<HighLevel:ParentEntity xsi:type="HighLevel:AChildEntity" xmlns:HighLevel="someNamespace">
<A>ABC</A>
<B>1</B>
<FromAChildEntity>ABCDE</FromAChildEntity>
</HighLevel:ParentEntity>

Where is XSLT mapper?

I was advised by PeopleSoft Tech Support (who now work for Oracle!) that JDeveloper contained a utility for creating XSLT. There directions were to right-click the project, expand General, select XML, then select XSLT mapper in the Items list. Problem: XSLT mapper is NOT in that list, and I did not leave anything out when installing (Studio 10.1.3.0.3.3412)
Essentially I have an XML interface file that I generate out of PeopleSoft Financials - and I have an XML file that my non-PS client wants to receive. There is a gap between - ok, a chasm - and apparently this XSLT mapper enables you to drag a field from one file into the other & it will generate the XSLT code for you.
Can anyone shed some light on where this tool is? Thanks!

Paul, this is not in the EA1 realese of JDeveloper 10.1.3.
Something like this is suppose to be part of the BPEL extension to JDeveloper 10.1.3 production.
There are other "more manual" XSLT capabilities in JDeveloper right now.

XSLT Mapping with Java Enhancement

Hi All
I am working on XSLT Mapping with Java Enhancement.
To do this scenario i have followed the following link.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/55/7ef3003fc411d6b1f700508b5d5211/frameset.htm
As per the above link I have created Source and Target Data Types , Message Types , Mesage Interfaces, XSLT Mapping (using the transaction XSLT_TOOL) and Interface Mapping part and configred a simple file to file scenario in the ID part.
Apart from this I have wirte the java code, compile the java code, create the jar file using .java and .class file and after creating the jar file import the .jar file in the imported archive of the IR..
when I am trying to execute the scenario I am getting the successful message in SXMB_MONI but the target file is having the payload as given below.
<?xml version ="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<name xmlns:javamap="java:com.company.group.MappingClass"/>
And as per the XSLT mapping the payload should be as below
<?xml version ="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<person>
<name>Rinku Gangwani</name>
</person>
I have also followed the following blog link but still i am getting the same issue
/people/pooja.pandey/blog/2005/06/27/xslt-mapping-with-java-enhancement-for-beginners
could you please tell me what can be the reason that i am getting the blank targt field values in the payload.
Thanks
Rinku Gangwani

Hi,
The Transaction code XSLT_TOOL for ABAP xslt mapping.But the Java Enhancement is used for normal xslt mapping which we created using Stylus Studio.You can not access the Java Enhancement in ABAP xslt mapping.
If you want to use Java Enhancement in xslt mapping then create a xslt mapping using Stylus Studio and save the file as .xsl and zip the .xsl and import to import archive.

XSLT Maps with Java enhancements - JCO_SYSTEM_FAILURE

Hi,
I have reviewed several postings regarding XSLT Maps with Java enhancements. I followed instructions and build a jar file and the XSLT document. I built one imported archive with the .jar and .xsl. For the class, The path get loaded properly.
However, I still have a problem when and execute the interface.
My xslt has the following information
<xsl:transform version="1.0"
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:ns="http://xyz.abc.sap.def.com"
    xmlns:javamap="java:xyz.Date_Time">
<xsl:param name="inputparam" />
    <xsl:template match="/">
        <test><xsl:value-of select="javamap:getDateValue($inputparam)"/></test>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
In SXMB_Moni I get the following error...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
- 
- <SAP:Error xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="">

If i remove the line
<test><xsl:value-of select="javamap:getDateValue($inputparam)"/></test>
The map ends successfuly.
Comments would be appreciated.

Sergio

Stefan,
Find the class and method definition below. The method is static and it returns the string.
==========
package xyz;
import java.util.Map;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.AbstractTrace;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.StreamTransformationConstants;
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
public class Date_Time {
    private static AbstractTrace trace = null;
    public static String getDateValue(Map inputparam)
            trace = (AbstractTrace)inputparam.get(
                     StreamTransformationConstants.MAPPING_TRACE );
            Date now1 = new Date();
            SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat ("yyyyMMd");
            String dateString = formatter.format(now1);
            return dateString;

USe of Business services with BPEL or ESB

Hi,
Has anyone come across any example on how to use Busiess services with BPEL or ESB.
Oracle App Server , JDE 812 , Tools 8.98 , SOA suite 10g

Samir,
I don't see any answer for your post.
Did you find a solution. I would be interested to know as how to integrate business services in JDE with BPEL/SOA 10g or 11G.
I would appreciate if you could share the approach/solution you followed.Also, please let me know if there are any docs which I can for jde-fusion integration.
Thanks

Business Catalog updated with BPEL refs, not with BPMN refs

When adding BPEL processes to the SCA component you see the Business catalog modules "References" and "Services" are updated. However, when adding BPMN processes the Business catalog is not updated (and btw you cannot check "Expose as an web service" when creating a BPMN process like you can with BPEL processes). In my opinion the current solution seems incomplete: viewing the "Exposed services" lane of my composite.xml I should expect all of them in the Business Catalog, not only the BPEL ones. It seems Oracle's work behind the Business Catalog component has not finished yet or is there some logic behind this behaviour?
I am working with version 11.1.1.6
Edited by: GSmink on Jul 9, 2012 5:12 AM
corrected spelling errors

Dan,
No I did not use Reusable or Manual processes, I use processes (asyn) with a Message Start event, and yes, I see them nicely in the Composite's Exposed Services and the wsdl's in the project's SOA Content folder. But my 'concern' is why the Business Catalog (BC) is not populated with BPMN processes like it is with BPEL processes. In the "Services" module of the BC I see the submodule BPEL with my BPEL processes so I had expected a submodule BPMN with my BPMN processes. From a business perspective I certainly would also see my business processes in the BC, so for me it seems 'unbalanced'
(I ran against this issue when using correlation:
In the process receiving an 'in flight' message I defined a Message catch event step in where I defined in the box "Message Exchange" Type :"Define Interface". Then building the process that throws the message to the in-flight process instance I defined the Message Throw event step and in that step I had expected to be able to use the Message Exchange Type "Use Interface" but that was not possible because I could only select BPEL services.
I solved this by selecting "Process call" in stead of "Use Interface".)
