XSQL DTD, XSQL command line, XSL parameters

I have three quick XSQL questions:
1. Is there a DTD available for XSQL? I'd like to feed it to Emacs' PSGML mode (http://www.lysator.liu.se/projects/about_psgml.html). What do you other Emacsers use to edit XSQL and XSL files?
2. XSQL is working fine under Apache/jserv, but the command line isn't finding my DB connections as defined in XSQLConfig.xml:
XSQL-004: Could not acquire a database connection named: lcbean@isis
Does this mean XSQL couldn't find the connection description, or couldn't connect to it after finding it? It does use CLASSPATH to locate XSQLConfig.xml, right?
3. I'm trying to use parameters in an XSL stylesheet as follows:
<html xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xsl:version="1.0">
<xsl:param name="store_code" select="'999'"/>
<head><title>Test</title></head>
<body><p><xsl:value-of select="$store_code"/></p></body>
</html>
But I keep getting:
XSL-1031: Variable not defined: 'store_code'
What am I missing?
null

[list=1]
[*]No. Since XSQL action elements are allowed to appear anywhere in any well-formed XML document, you cannot really describe this in a DTD.
[*]This means you put a connection="lcbean@isis" attribute on the document element of your XSQL page, but that it could not find a <connectiondef> for that name in XSQLConfig.xml (which is found successfully if it got this far!).
[*] See Section 11.5 in the XSLT 1.0 specification. <xsl:param> must appear immediately at the top of a template before any literal result elements. This means that <xsl:param> cannot be used in a "simple-form" stylesheet. You can either use <xsl:variable> instead, or you'll have to change to the full-form of the <xsl:stylesheet> and place the <xsl:param> at the top-level of the stylesheet, outside of any <xsl:template>.

Invoking Forms 6i application from command line with parameters

Hi,
I have a java application that requires to start up and execute an existing Forms 6i application.
I am not a java person, and I could not find any help regarding this. If anyone knows how to execute an fmx(6i) from within a java application, then please let me know. The java application has to pass in parameters so that the the Forms application opens up with the correct data.
One alternative suggested was that the java application execute a command line invocation of the Forms application. I am looking for the correct and complete syntax to do this. The fmx can be invoked from the command line with the following entered at the dos prompt -
c:\>OraFrm6i\Bin\ifrun60.exe<module name> <userid/password@db>. This works fine and the Forms application is executed.
The requirement is to pass a couple of user defined parameters to the Forms application which can be used by it to query the database and display the correct information when it opens.
Any help on this would be greately appreciated.
Thanks
Shailesh

Shailesh,
Create a parameter in your form - eg. COUNTRY_CODE and add any startup code.
Then add the parameter to your command line (or put it in a *.bat file)
c:\>OraFrm6i\Bin\ifrun60.exe<module name> <userid/password@db> country_code=UK

Open application via. command line with parameters - Multiple times

I'm using ANT to compile a program, then launch in FireFox ... I've looked all over for a solution to this, but have yet to find one.
I need the command to open a specified URL in FireFox... easy enough, right?
Solution #1 was to use the "open -a" command, with the URL- so "open -a FireFox.app/ http://someURL.com" ... the problem with this is that it opens a new window or tab every time- its a minor annoyance, but when you do 100 or more compiles during the day, its quite annoying.
Solution #2 is to actually launch the program executable (FireFox.app/Content/MacOS/firefox) using the argument -url and that makes it so FireFox opens the URL in the current & front-most window. This worked great the first time, second time I get an error saying "A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time."
Anybody know how to make it so I don't have to close a window every time I compile? Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

If you don't get an answer here, you might try reposting in the UNIX forum. That's where the command line experts tend to hang out. Good luck.

XSQL Command-Line, parameters with blanks

Is it possible to use XSQL Command-Line with parameters containing blanks (space characters).
In an URL parameter spaces can be encoded with "+" or "%20", but this does'nt seem to work with XSQL Command-Line parameters.
-- Peter

I can't make this work on Unix (solaris), but I can see it is a shell script problem, not a XSQL problem.
The normal syntax for Unix shell script would be
$ script.sh foo="one two"
but the standard Oracle-supplied xsql unix shell script sets environment and passes all command-line parameters to the java program with
oracle.xml.xsql.XSQLCommandLine $*
and thereby the quotes disappear.
The problem is not really big, since I could just do
oracle.xml.xsql.XSQLCommandLine test.xsql "foo=one two"
after setting classpath. Anyway, if anybody knows how to make the xsql script work with quoted parameters, let me know.

Running report from command line with multiple value for same parameter

Hey,
I know how to run a report from the command line specifying parameters values each time but I was wondering if someone could tell me how I would go about running the same report multiple times in a batch program but specifying a list of values to pass to a parameter each time.
So for example if a parameter was 'School Number', how could I run a report in a batch program that would pass a school number to the report as a parameter using a list of school numbers generated for a sql statement or something. So if I had 300 school numbers in my list then I would get 300 different reports when the batch program finished.
This leads me to another question. How can I dynamically change the name of the report generated by the batch to use the school number value passed in, so for example if the value 3 was passed in the name would be something like School 3.pdf, if 4 was passed in the name would be School 4.pdf....etc
Any help on this?
Thanks

Windows command line to invoke jabber client

Hi there,
We have an application running when jabber starts. Currently users have to start Jabber manually first and then start working with the app. Is there a way to invoke jabber from command-line with parameters such as credential?
Thanks!
Lin

You are falling for one of the traps described here. The redirection operator '>' has to be interpreted by a shell or command processor. On windows this would be
String command = "cmd.exe /C mycommand hello > output.txt";and on Linux this would beString command = "sh -c mycommand hello > output.txt";You should read all 4 sections of the traps article and implement ALL the recommendations or you will be back here again.

Adobe AIR Application Installer command-line

Could someone provide the command-line reference (parameters
and usage) for Adobe AIR Application Installer?
Tks!

Hey Oliver!
I've applied for an AIR distribution license but I still have
some doubts.
My application is based in one .air component and another one
service created using C++. So, in order to install my application,
I need to install both applications. I've used the bundled
installation mentioned in the distribution docs, but it is not the
best solution for my problem. I would like to have just one entry
point in the “Add/Remove Programs” applet.
Is there another way to deliver the .air application (e.g.
not using the Adobe AIR Application Installer)?
For example, is it possible get all files needed to create my
.air file and install them without creating the .air file properly?
I mean, is there any license or technical restrictions that
invalidate this approach?
Thanks!

Install Adobe PostScript in command lines (by script)

XSQL command line parameters

I have a situation where I am generating some XML from a query in an XSQL and I want to use some command line parameters. This ony seems to work inside queries, e.g. given the command line "xsql quote.xsql quotetype=carhire quotenum=123" this will substitute 123 for "{@quotenum}" given the command line and leave "{@quotetype}" untouched.
<pre>
<quote type="{@quotetype}">
<xsql:query>
select price from quotes where number={@quotenum}
</xsql:query>
</quote>
</pre>
Is there a way to substitute the {@quotetype} part in XSQL?

I'm already using XSLT and I've put <xsl:param name="type"> in the stylesheet, but references to $type don't seem to get any result, e.g.
<xsl:value-of select="$type"/> is blank
and
<xsl:if test="$type='carhire'">
<xsl:text>car hire</xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
doesn't generate any output either, so either I've got my syntax for parameters wrong, or the parameters don't get passed from the XSQL front end to the XSLT back end.

Xsql command line and stored PL/SQL procedures

I have an xsql servlet that calls a stored procedure in an Oracle 8.1.7 DB to generate XML. The servlet then uses a custom action handler to write the XML output to a file on the webserver.
This system works just fine through a web page interface. I am interesting in using the xsql command line interface to run the servlet as a nightly cron to keep the xml file up to date.
It seems that the xsql command line interface cannot execute stored procedures.
The xsql file is:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page connection="studev" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
<xsql:include-owa subj="AR" bind-params="subj">
studev.CTLGDSET.P_ADD_DEPT_DRIVER(?);
</xsql:include-owa>
<xsql:write-to-file file="{@subj}.xml" dir="{@dir}" base-tag="/page/SUBJECT/"/>
</page>and the output written to the file is
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<page xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
<xsql:include-owa subj="AR" bind-params="subj">
studev.CTLGDSET.P_ADD_DEPT_DRIVER(?);
</xsql:include-owa>
<xsql:write-to-file file="{@subj}.xml" dir="{@dir}" base-tag="/page/SUBJECT/"/>
</page>Any comments or suggestions would be much appreciated.
-Eric Dalquist

Ok. I looked into the problem. The issue is that the Action Handler for <xsql:include-owa> conditionally passes on information about cookies and such to the OWA package context if you happen to be using XSQL through the Servlet interface.
If you are not using XSQL through the servlet interface, things still work, but the class that implements the include-owa action handler still has a load-time dependency on the "servlet.jar" (even if you don't end up using it).
So, the workaround is to add a copy of the Servlet SDK jar file "servlet.jar" to your CLASSPATH of the XSQL Command Line utility, and it works fine.
XSQL 9.0.2 Beta (due out this week I believe on OTN) has been tested with FOP 0.18.1, but XSQL 1.0.4.3 Production and XSQL 9.0.1 production should both work with 0.18.1 as well.

XSQL Command Line Utility

How do I access XSQL Command Line Utility as mentioned in the document like
xsql <inputfile.xsql> <outputfile.xml>
Thanx in advance...

Look in ./xsql/bin with the 0.9.9.1 distribution. There is an xsql.bat and an xsql shell script to make this easier.
In general, you need to:
Make sure the following five entries
are in your CLASSPATH
./xsql/lib/oraclexsql.jar
./xsql/lib/oraclexmlsql.jar
./xsql/lib/classes111.zip
./xsql/lib/xmlparserv2.jar
./xsql/lib
Then run:
java oracle.xml.xsql.XSQLCommandLine
null

Is there a for-each statement in XSQL like the one in XSL?

I'm trying to do the following:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- 
- <database>
- <request>
- <parameters>
- <row>
<checkboxuser>jonathan</checkboxuser>
</row>
- <row>
<checkboxuser>james</checkboxuser>
</row>
- <row>
<checkboxuser>steve</checkboxuser>
</row>
- <row>
<checkboxuser>richard</checkboxuser>
</row>
</parameters>
- <session>
<access>0</access>
<user>malik</user>
<adminfirstname>Malik</adminfirstname>
<adminlastname>Graves-Pryor</adminlastname>
</session>
- <cookies>
<JServSessionIdroot>v647ogyd8n</JServSessionIdroot>
</cookies>
</request>
- <allusers>
- <userinfo>
<first-name>Jonathan</first-name>
<last-name>Terry</last-name>
<email>[email protected]</email>
<user-name>jonathan</user-name>
<password>terry</password>
<access-level>1</access-level>
</userinfo>
</allusers>
</database>Now as you can see, I have 4 instances of <checkboxuser> in my XSQL page. These values are being passed in from checkboxes on the previous page. Is there an XSQL command that will say something like <xsql:for-each select="/database/request/parameters/checkboxuser"> ?
So that it'd look something like this in the original code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<database connection="dvddb" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
<xsql:include-request-params/>
<xsql:query id-attribute="" tag-case="lower" rowset-element="allusers" row-element="userinfo">
SELECT FIRSTNAME AS "FIRST-NAME",
LASTNAME AS "LAST-NAME",
EMAIL AS "EMAIL",
USERNAME AS "USER-NAME",
PASSWORD AS "PASSWORD",
ACCESSLEVEL AS "ACCESS-LEVEL"
FROM LKUP_USER
WHERE USERNAME = '<xsql:for-each select="/database/request/parameters/checkboxuser">'
ORDER BY ACCESSLEVEL
</xsql:query>
</database>Or something like that... The XSL works fine, but not when I want to pull info from the DB.. :)

Command Line Parameters - opening a pdf in "Files" view ?

I am trying to open a PDF from a command line parameter which will force it to open in "Files" wiew, which in my case is a column on the left hand side with a series of page icons with a title:
01 Introductions
02 Installation
03 Instructions
04 Troubleshooting
So, I have tried a lot of parameters to open it in this way and none seem to work.
I have tried:
acrord32.exe /A "pagemode=thumbs=OpenActions" "a.pdf"
and many more
I have the PDF on acrobat reader opening parameters but none seem to do it for me.
Any ideas?

Nowhere in that file does it say that it works for Reader.

How to set plug-in Java Runtime parameters on JRE setup command line

Hi all:
I need to install JRE and set the Java Runtime Parameters -Xmx
by command line ..
I mean I don't want enter Control panel and set this parameter manually in Java Runtime Parameters textBox..
thanx.
Best regards
w.shiha

Documentation for controlling the installation is sadly lacking in detail. This is the best I have seen for the Windows environment:
http://java.com/en/download/help/silent_install.xml
But, there are numerous other PROPERTY variables that are not discussed. Particularly annoying is the addition of yet another JavaUpdate item with the release of 1.5.0_05. If you can get more information, please post a link to it here.
