• Helps the Parseing XML

  Version: Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - Production

  Hello

  I need assistance with an XML file to generate lines to insert into a table staged for further processing.

  There is an XML document that is loaded into a table in the database via a Web Service call.

  I need to query this table to get the XML code, loop through it to create folders, with the fields in a specific order and insert records into a table of staging.

  There are two columns that are not in the XML that are added during the process. I am including these tables as well.

  I know it is a bunch of "stuff", but I hope I've provided enough information to get help.

  The tables and insert queries:

  -This table contains the XML of the Web Service call

  This XML file is for 1 card. There are several issues that are in the file. I reduced to only 5 is easier to see.

  The layout of the document to be inserted in the staging table is:

  Event.TestName

  Event.FormName

  Event.CompleteDate

  v_tracking_id

  Event.ProgramRegistrationID

  Event.StartTime

  Event.CompleteDate / * end * /.

  Candidate.LastName

  Candidate.FirstName

  Candidate.MiddleName (the middle name does not exist in the file XML then return null)

  Candidate.ProgramCandidateID

  v_school_code

  Candidate.CustomProperties.Answer (this does not exist in the file XML then return null)

  Event.ResultID

  Event.NumStarts

  Event.Completed

  Event.Sponsor

  Scores.Questions.Question.Name

  Scores.Questions.Question.Section

  Scores.Questions.Question.SeqDelivered

  Scores.Questions.Question.Key

  Scores.Questions.Question.Answer

  Scores.Questions.Question.Seconds

  Starts.OperatingSystem

  Starts.BrowserVersion

  The expected output is:

  Thank you

  You have several questions in the XML, so when flattened document you will have several lines trying to extract in v_result.  Where the error.  You will need to either loop

  for rec in (select... from XMLTable...)

  loop

  insert into staging_tbl...

  end loop;

  or make an insert select

  insert into staging_tbl (results_data)

  Select...

  from XMLTable...

• Problem copying 4000 characters of CLOB in VARCHAR2 (4000 TANK)

  I'm migrating data from a table where it is stored in a CLOB to another table where I said a column of VARCHAR2(4000 CHAR).
  
  I stated a cursor in the form:
  
  (a) select columna, columnb, substr(clob_column,1,4000) of...
  
  (b) select columna, columnb, dbms_lob.substr(clob_column,4000,1) of...
  
  I then loop and EXTRACT the value of substr in a variable that is declared as VARCHAR2 (4000 TANK)
  
  With the cursor version 'a', using the regular subtr function, I get: ORA-01461: can bind to a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column
  
  With the slider 'b' version, by using the dbms_lob.substr function, I get: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital or value error: character string buffer too small
  
  I use Oracle 10.2.0.4.0
  
  I don't know yet what to watch next?

  Machinery says:

  However, the database uses NLS_CHARACTERSET UTF8 and NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET = AL16UTF16, which are multibyte so I was expecting the declared with semantic CHAR VARCHAR2 to be multibyte.

  And it is. But in Oracle SQL VARCHAR2, as I already mentioned, must not exceed 4000 bytes. So even if you have declared it as 4000 characters, you'll get an error when the total length in bytes is greater than 4000. And since, according to the character set, a character can be 1 to 4 bytes, Oracle takes the best cases and allows you to declare it as max 4000 characters. How many characters will fit in eseccion is another question.

  What? Pepijn you provided the correct use of Xmlattributes and showed that your script would go without errors. What is the problem with his answer or it does not that you need it?

• Parsing XML and get the attributes of a tag

  Hello

  When parsing XML for application of Cascades in C++, I am able to get the value of a tag as follows:

• Widget to the Web service, parsing XML

  I worked on the communication with my web services and back to my widget.

  By using the code below, I was able to perform a GET and repay the XML, but I can't find data where I expect it to be node-wise when parsing XML. I return an object with 3 variables attached to it. I expect to be child nodes 1, 2, and 3. They proved to be 1, 3 and 5 nodes.

  Any ideas on why or how? I feel I'm missing just a simple thing in all of this.

• string aggregation &gt; 4000 store in varchar2 (4000)

  Dear experts,

  I'm using Oracle 11.2.0.3. I have the table such as

  ID NAME

  1 xyz

  1 abc xyz

  1 xyz abc def

  2 abc

  2 xyz nmnx

  I want to aggregate them so that I have the aggregation of the NAME by ID

  as

  1	XYZ xyz abc xyz abc def
  2	ABC xyz nmnx

  I was able to do this using:

  WITH t
       AS (SELECT 1 AS id, 'xyz' AS name FROM DUAL
           UNION ALL
           SELECT 1, ' xyz abc' FROM DUAL
           UNION ALL
           SELECT 1, 'xyz abc  def' FROM DUAL
           UNION ALL
           SELECT 2, 'abc' FROM DUAL
           UNION ALL
           SELECT 2, 'xyz  nmnx' FROM DUAL)
  SELECT     id, RTRIM (XMLCAST (XMLAGG (XMLELEMENT (e, name, ' ') ORDER BY NULL) AS CLOB)) as agg_name
      FROM   t
  GROUP BY   id;
  
  

  However, if the length (agg_name) > 8 (for simplicity), then the name should be on a separate line with the same id

  1 xyz xyz

  1 abc def

  1 xyz ABC

  2 abc xyz

  2 nmnx

  token order is not important.

  Thanks for any help

  Above could be done using

  WITH t
       AS (SELECT 1 AS id, 'xyz' AS name FROM DUAL
           UNION ALL
           SELECT 1, ' xyz abc' FROM DUAL
           UNION ALL
           SELECT 1, 'xyz abc  def' FROM DUAL
           UNION ALL
           SELECT 2, 'abc' FROM DUAL
           UNION ALL
           SELECT 2, 'xyz  nmnx' FROM DUAL)
  SELECT     ID, LISTAGG (name) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY NULL) org_name
      FROM   (SELECT   ID,

• Best way to Parse XML using Dreamweaver CC 2015.3

  I was on a wild goose chase - trying to figure out how to parse XML using DW CC

  every article I read, says something about XML & XSLT, but it is no longer available in the new CC - I read about using jQuery or php, but have not yet find a resource to learn specifically "using DW CC.

  I'm willing to learn how to parse XML with DW CC but I would get a definitive direction to go before I'm trying to learn something that adobe will put in 'end of life '.

  advice or links to resources that can parse XML DW CC 2015 would be LARGELY APPRECIATED, thank you

  x 126 has written:

  What I'm asking is...

  1. What is the best procedure to insert XML into a page using DW CC 2015 as my editor?
  a. what happened to spry? b. what happened to XSLT?

  As Nancy explained, Spry has been abandoned by Adobe, a few years ago.

  XSLT server behavior has been removed at the same time as other server behaviors Dreamweaver CC. The problem with most of the PHP server behaviors was that they were based on code that has been removed from PHP 7. The XSLT server behavior didn't rely on these features, but it was not the most friendly of server behaviors. XSLT is a complex language that is to be avoided when parsing XML unless you really know what you're doing.

  The easiest way to manipulate XML in Dreamweaver should use PHP SimpleXML. I've linked to the samples page in the PHP online documentation. Believe me, it's much easier than trying to do battle with XSLT. If you have a subscription to lynda.com, you can learn more about SimpleXML to my operational with SimpleXMLclass.

• VARCHAR2 (4000 tank) in AL32UTF8

  Hello
  
  I have an instance using AL32UTF8. There is a column in a table is defined as VARCHAR2 (4000 tank). I can fill a string with 4,000 characters (multi-byte language) to this column?
  
  Thank you

  >
  that means that the length of VARCHAR maxiumn is 4000 BYTES, regardless of the configuration?
  >
  Yes - the maximum length of VARCHAR2 is 4000 bytes.

  Oracle allows to specify VARCHAR2 (4000 TANK) for a base of multibyte character set, since it is legal to insert 4000 single-byte characters. But it is to make sure that you don't try to integrate more than 4000 bytes.

• Parsing XML in ColdFusion 5

  Hello there,
  
  It's not like there is a native way to parse XML in ColdFusion version 5.0. ColdFusion MX makes it easier to work with XML, but unfortunately I am working under Windows with a CF5 server.
  
  I've gotten to the point of use CFHTTP to retrieve XML content in a variable, but I don't know the best way to decompress the data in a query, or another structure that I can use to feed the rest of the model. I thought to save the content of a file and then a loop top, but something tells me that it is an inefficient way to do the job.
  
  I would like to avoid having to install any additional software, but if it's the only way to process XML in CF5, then I would be grateful for any recommendations on the best tools to evaluate or buy. Or if there is a way to do it in JavaScript, it would be great, too.
  
  Thanks for any help!

• VARCHAR2 (4000) - absolute max?

  I have the following code to create a table using sqlplus.
  
  create table psncatsdw.acc_narrative)
  accident_num varchar2 (20).
  agency_code varchar2 (6).
  number of accident_rec_num
  VARCHAR2 (4000) narrative.
  date of input_date_time
  );
  
  
  The size in bytes max for a varchar2 is 4000. Is it possible to increase it? The "narrative" field is a field where a user basically gives his version of an accident. Recently we had a problem with that. Has never exceeded the 4000 bytes max. Some people take longer than others :) The input tool, that users have is no limit put in place to force it to keep under 4000 (and is not really practical for me to get that changed). So, when I try to load the table with data from all users, almost all of the load will fail when it reaches a 'story' longer than 4000 bytes. When I try to change the size in bytes max on the table I get predictable one error "ORA-00910: specified length too long for its data type. Is there a way hidden for me to get around this size in bytes max?
  
  
  Thank you!

  Hello

  Yes, there are way to increase it, use CLOB data type

  create table psncatsdw.acc_narrative(
  accident_num varchar2(20),
  agency_code varchar2(6),
  accident_rec_num number,
  narrative clob default empty_clob(),

• Parsing xml and store the details in the hierarchical tables

  Hi all

  I'm trying to parse a xml code and store the details in the hierarchical tables, however, I am unable to analyze the child attributes of tags and store the details in relational format.

  Oracle - 11.2.0.4 version

  My XML looks like in below:

  <Root>
  <ParentTag name="JobName" attrib1="Text" attrib2="SomeOtherText">
    <ChildTag childAttrib1="SomeValue1" childAttrib2="SomeValue2" />
    <ChildTag childAttrib1="SomeValue3" childAttrib2="SomeValue4" />
    <ChildTag childAttrib1="SomeValue5" childAttrib2="SomeValue6" />
  
    <OtherChildTag childAttrib1="SomeValue1" childAttrib2="SomeValue2" />
  </ParentTag>
  </Root>
  
  

  The table structure is as follows:

  create the table parent_details
  (
  job_id number primary key,
  VARCHAR2 (100) job_name,.
  job_attrib1 varchar2 (100),
  job_attrib2 varchar2 (100)
  );

  create the table child_details
  (
  child_id number primary key,
  number of parent_job_id
  child_attrib1 varchar2 (100),
  child_attrib2 varchar2 (100),
  Constraint fk_child_details foreign key (parent_job_id) refers to parent_details (job_id)
  );

  After analysis, I would expect the data to be stored in the format below:

  Table Name:-
  parent_details
  ID Name     Attribute1  Attribute2
  1  JobName  Text        SomeOtherText
  
  
  ChildTable (Store Child Tag details)
  ID Parent ID Attribute1  Attribute2
  1  1         SomeValue1  SomeValue2
  2  1         SomeValue3  SomeValue4
  3  1         SomeValue5  SomeValue6
  
  

  I tried following SQL, but it does not work. Please suggest if the same SQL can be improved to get the details in the expected format or should I use another solution.

  select job_details.*
    from test_xml_table t,
         xmltable ('/Root/ParentTag'
                    passing t.col 
                    columns 
                      job_name varchar2(2000) path '@name',
                      attribute1 varchar2(2000) path '@attrib1',
                      attribute2 varchar2(2000) path '@attrib2',
                      childAttribute1 varchar2(2000) path '/ChildTag/@childAttrib1'
                  ) job_details;
  

  I'm not forced to have a SQL solution, but would if it can be in SQL.

  Kind regards

  Laureline.

  Post edited by: Jen K - added the SQL, I tried to build.

  Well, the XML contains hierarchical data, and SQL is a "dish" of data, so it's up to you to treat lines that are coming out of the flat style and determine how to get that in separate tables.

  Suppose that we have several nodes of ParentTag each containing several nodes of ChildTag...

  JobName2 TextX SomeOtherT 2 SomeValue7 SomeValue9 2

  Using the 'ordinalite' gives us the line number for this node in the XML file, so that you can identify each parent as well as to say who is the first record of this parent (because it will have a child with the ordinalite 1).
