Oracle Database 10g XML & SQL: Design, Build & Manage XML Applications in Java, C, C++ & Introduction PL/SQL by Mark V. Scardina, Ben Chang and Jinyu Wang

ISBN:0072229527

XML is now six years old, having been published as a W3C recommendation in February 1998. It was around that McGraw-Hill/Osborne © 2004 (600 pages) time that Oracle began to take a serious look at this new promising technology. In fact the Architectural Review on utilizing XML technologies within Oracle's XML-enabled products, with Board decidedThis that comprehensive XML was goingguide to befocuses of company-wide importance and handed down a development charter to emphasis on XML standards, their usage and best practices. the CORE Development group as follows: Table Deliver of Contents the best platform for developers to productively build and cost-effectively deploy reliable and scaleable

Internet applications exploiting XML. Oracle Database 10g XML & SQL—Design, Build & Manage XML Applications in Java, C, C++ & PL/SQL Introduction

This charter has proven to be prescient as not only has XML become a dominant Internet technology, but also has spawned an entire family of standards that are becoming the foundation of electronic publishing, business, and Chapter 1 - Introducing XML application development. The impact of XML has been felt to no greater measure than within Oracle and has kept Chapter 2 - Accessing XML with DOM, SAX, JAXB, and StAX the now CORE and XML Development group busy these many years. The authors are members of this group and Chapter 3 - Transforming XML with XSLT and XPath have had the opportunity to not only participate in the XML standards process and produce the implementations but Chapter 4 - Validating XML with DTDs and XML Schemas also work with over a hundred development groups across Oracle and countless customers in putting this family of Chapter 5 - XML Operations with XQuery technologies to work in a myriad of ways. Thus we hope to bring to you not only the means to put Oracle’s XML Chapter 6 XML Messaging and RPC withand SOAP technology to work, but also new ways new ideas for using XML in your applications.

contemplating XML,Started What iswith all this fuss about? Why would I want to exchange data in a bloated form having lost its Chapter 8 - Getting the Oracle XML Database binding? is theXML oneData killer XML application? Chapter 9 What - Storing Chapter 10 - Generating and Retrieving XML

These were tough questions, primarily because XML is not an end but a means. Its strength and its weakness are in its ability to be infinitely flexible and extensible. Fortunately, as companion standards such as XSL, XML Schema, Chapter 12 - Managing the Oracle XML Database Namespaces, XPath, and so on, were developed and rolled out businesses and their developers stopped asking Part III - Oracle XML for Java Developers Why XML? and started asking How XML? which leads us to why we wrote this book.

Chapter 18 - Getting Started with Oracle XML and C

This situation gave birth to the Oracle XML Developer’s Kit in 1999 as a vehicle to expose implementations of these technologies to both the internal and external development community. This was desirable, as it would allow us to Chapter 20 - Build an XML Database OCI Application bring these implementations to production quicker using the beta facilities of the Oracle Technology Network (OTN), Chapter - Createfrom an XML-Configured High-Performance Transformation getting 21 feedback a broad spectrum of developers looking for XML Engine functionality. Productizing Oracle’s XML Part V - Oracle XML for C++ Developers infrastructure for external use meant that we had to develop a license. At that time the only Oracle licenses available Chapter 22 - Getting Started with Oracle XML and C++ were either a product license that limited usage to one’s own deployment or a development one that forbid Chapter 23 - Build an XML Database C++for Application deployment. Neither of these madeOCI sense a software development kit that we weren’t charging for and wanted Chapter - Building an XMLseriously.

The license wasn’t enough weServices were looking for serious enterprise-level development and deployments. We Chapter 26 - Building PL/SQL as Web needed27 support as well. Therefore we again successfully Chapter - Extending PL/SQL XML Functionality with Java negotiated to have the XDK be included as part of the

Oracle server support contracts for the database, application server, and tools at the same service level at no additional charge. Additionally, we were able to offer standalone support agreements for non-Oracle customers. Appendix - XML Standards Bodies and Open Specifications Finally, for those who could not afford or did not need formal support, we opened a support forum on OTN, which Glossary has rapidly grown to six forums that we directly support. Over the last five years we have released both beta and Index production XDKs at roughly three month intervals. Beta versions have a time-based development-only license but List of Figures the production releases have the full redistribution license. Chapter 28 - Putting It All Together

List of Tables

List Finally of Sidebars we come to this book. While this is the third book for two of us, it represents a totally different effort from the

previous Oracle XML Handbook and Oracle9i XML Handbook. Those previous editions provided a survey of Oracle and XML and in-depth discussions about the XDK. This edition is totally rewritten with almost all new content. While the previous editions came with CDs, this one does not for two very important reasons. First, all the code in the book will be downloadable from the Oracle Press web site. As distinct from a CD, this allows us to update it should any bugs appear. In the previous editions we provided Oracle software on the CD; however, it forced us to include only Oracle software, so we made most of the code available on OTN. This had the unanticipated effect of lessening the book’s value in some reader’s minds. This edition does not suffer under those limitations, so you will find more original and innovative content and all of the code available for download.

The book is divided into six parts and is organized to be accessible by managers, DBAs, and developers alike. Part I includesChapters 1 through 7 and focuses on the family of XML standards that are important to Oracle and that Oracle when Database 10g XML & SQL: Design, Build & Manage XML Applications in Java, C, C++ should be considered designing XML-enabled solutions. These not only discuss the common standards of & PL/SQL DOM, SAX, XSLT, and XML Schema, but venture into new standards, some of which are not complete, such as ISBN:0072229527 by Mark V.

Part II includes Chapters 8 through 12 and focuses on XML and the Oracle database. Beginning in Oracle9i Release 2, native XML support was introduced along with significant XML functionality integrated into other database features Table of Contents such as Oracle Text and Advanced Queuing. These chapters provide an in-depth look at this functionality and its Oracle Database 10g XML & SQL—Design, Build & Manage XML Applications in Java, C, C++ & PL/SQL evolution into Oracle Database 10g. After getting started in Chapter 8, the chapters are arranged along task lines Introduction such as storing XML, retrieving and generating XML, searching and querying XML, and managing the Oracle XML Part I - Oracle and the XML Standards DB. These chapters are designed to be accessible to both developers and DBAs. Chapter 1

Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a meta-markup language, meaning that the language, as specified by the McGraw-Hill/Osborne © 2004 (600 pages) World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) XML 1.0 specification, enables users to define their own markup languages to This comprehensive guide focuses on utilizing XML technologies within Oracle's XML-enabled products, with describe and encapsulate data into XML files.

While this book is not meant to be a full XML tutorial, as with any standard, numerous concepts and technical terms Chapter 9 - Storing XML Data need to be explained. Because XML was developed to convey data, a relevant example is a data record of a book Chapter 10 - Generating and Retrieving XML listing from a standard database. A complex SQL query could return data in the following format: Chapter 11 - Searching XML Data

If XML is used as the output form, however, this record now has additional context for each piece of data, as

… . The angle brackets and text inside are called tags, and each set of tags and its enclosed data is called an element. This relationship can be thought of as similar Chapter 25 - Getting Started with Oracle XML and PL/SQL to a column in a database table in which the text of the tag is the column heading and the text between the tags is Chapter 26 - Building PL/SQL Web Services the data from a row in that column.

This is a significant feature of XML, which permits nesting Glossary of data to define relationships better. Returning to the database metaphor, the tag could be modeled as a Index table whose columns were and . In XML terminology, these column tags are referred to as

Now look at the tag and you see that it includes text of the form name=“value”. These name-value pairs are called attributes, and one or more of these can be included in the start tag of any element. Attributes, however, are not legal in end tags (for example, ). Notice that attribute values must be framed by quotes (single or double, as long as the closing and opening quotes are the same) as specified by SGML. HTML is much more permissive in this area.

One final terminology note: the entire XML example is enclosed by … . These tags are defined as theroot of the document, and only one may exist in any particular document. XML documents that follow these rules of having only one root and properly closing all open tags are considered well formed.

XML’s basic concepts and terminology are straightforward and are formalized in an open Internet standard. As the W3C XML 1.0 specification states, “XML documents are made up of storage units called entities, which contain either parsed data or unparsed data [or PCDATA] up of characters, someinofJava, whichC,form Oracle Databasedata. 10g Parsed XML & SQL: Design, Buildis&made Manage XML Applications C++ & character data,PL/SQL and some of which form markup.

The XML of the book example represents the body of an XML document, but it is missing important information that helps identify its nature. This information is in the prolog, discussed in the following section.

Theprolog consists of the XML declaration (that is, the version number), a possible language encoding hint, other - Introducing XML attributes (name-value pairs), and an optional grammar or data model specified by either an XML Schema Definition Chapter 2 Accessing XML DOM, SAX, JAXB, and StAX (XSD) or a- Document Typewith Definition (DTD) referred to by a URL.

The second line of this prolog refers to a DOCTYPE. This is where the declaration of the grammar or data model for this XML document is done. Why is this important? Remember, an XML file has both physical and logical Part III - Oracle XML for Java Developers representations. In some applications, it may be sufficient to process the XML without knowing whether information Chapter 13 - Getting Started with Oracle XML and Java is missing, but most of the time, an application wants to validate the XML document it receives to confirm everything Chapter 14 - Building an XML-Powered Web Site is there. To do this, the application must know which elements are required, which ones can have children, which Chapter 15 have - Creating a Portal Site XML and Web Services ones can attributes, and sowith forth. In XML terms, the grammar or data model in this example is referred to as Chapter 16 -DTD Developing an XML Gateway Application SOAP be and AQ DTD. This can reside within the XML file itselfwith or simply referred to so that the processor can locate it, as in Chapter 17 - Developing XML-Based Reusable Components this example.

This prefix is used on the names of the data types defined in the referenced XSD to differentiate them from others using the same name. Chapter 24 - Building an XML Data-Retrieval Application Thexsd:schemadeclaration denotes the beginning of this XML Schema incorporated in this XML document, along Part VI - Oracle XML for PL/SQL Developers with one other declaration, xmlns:bk=“http://www.mypublishsite.com/books”,whichdefines the namespace of Chapter 25 - Getting Started with Oracle XML and PL/SQL the prefix bk: so asto identify these types as defined by the author of this data model.

The Body

List of Figures

List Theofroot Tables element, which contains the remainder of the XML document, follows the prolog and is called the body of

theofXML document. This part is composed of elements, processing instructions, content, attributes, comments, List Sidebars entity references, and so forth. As previously mentioned, elements must have start tags and corresponding end tags nested in the correct order; otherwise, the XML document is not well-formed, and XML parsers may signal errors because of this. Elements can also have attributes, or name-value pairs, such as . Built-in attributes defined by the XML 1.0 specification also exist, such as xml:space=“preserve” to indicate that the whitespace between the elements be considered as data and thus preserved. Entity references, defined only in DTDs, are similar to macros in that entities are defined once, and references to

them, such as &nameofentity, can be used in place of their entire definitions. For example, in a DTD, could bedeclared, and then &Copyright could be Database used as a shortcut the XML document.

This comprehensive guide focuses on utilizing XML technologies within Oracle's XML-enabled products, with emphasis on XML standards, their usage and best practices.

Within the body of the XML document instance, certain element and attribute names may have prefixes, which are XML namespaces identified by Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) references that qualify the names of these Table of Contents elements and attributes and locate resources that could be on different machines or XML documents. For example, Oracle 10g XML & SQL—Design, Build & Manage XML Applications in Java, C, & PL/SQL if the Database declaration xmlns:bk=“http:// www.mypublishsite.com/books” is made in C++ a parent element, the prefix Introduction bk:title stands for http:// www.mypublishsite.com/books:title. You can use identical names for either elements Part I - Oracleifand Standards or attributes theythe areXML qualified with URIs to differentiate the names. For example, bk:hello is called a qualified Chapter 1 Introducing XML name; the namespace prefix bk is mapped to the URI, http://www.mypublishsite.com/books, and the local part is Chapter 2 - Accessing XML with DOM, SAX, JAXB, and StAX hello. Note that URI references can contain characters not allowed in element names; that is why bk serves as a Chapter substitute 3 -for Transforming the URI. It isXML important with XSLT to mention and XPath that the bk prefix belongs to the document in which it is declared.
