Generate dynamic xml file through jaxB - java

I want to generate this below mentioned xml file from my multiple action classes in struts2.
I perform multiple below mentioned operations from my Struts 2 action classes and adding them in single existing xml file.
1) Adding news in xml file
2) Adding footer info in xml file
3) Adding agency info in xml file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<agencylink>
<agency>
<title>Ministry of Games</title>
<url>http://www.abc.gov.</url>
</agency>
<agencyNews>
<date>22/Apr/2014</date>
<news>How do I clear my web browsers cache, cookies, and history?</news>
</agencyNews>
<headerLogo>
<img>images/header.jpg</img>
</headerLogo>
<footerText>
<ftxt>All rights reserved.</ftxt>
</footerText>
<aLoginLogo>
<img>images/logo1.jpg</img>
</aLoginLogo>
<aHeaderLogo>
<img>images/logo2.jpg</img>
</aHeaderLogo>
</agencylink>
I am using JaxB.
When i am performing this different-different actions, my xml file is appended with that info but issue is tag name is same when it stored in xml file.
Tag name must be looks like above mentioned xml file.
When i update news information all tag name is changed as <agencyNews>.
So please any one help me to get this xml format through JaxB.
Its my Java Code below
package com.ocr.nsw.xml;
import java.util.List;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlAccessType;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlAccessorType;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlElement;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlElementWrapper;

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlSeeAlso;
#XmlRootElement(name = "agencylink")
#XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
#XmlSeeAlso({ Agency.class, AgencyNews.class, HeaderLogo.class,
FooterText.class, ALoginLogo.class, AHeaderLogo.class })
public class AgencyLink {
#XmlElement(name = "agencyNews")
private List<AgencyNews> adate;
#XmlElement(name = "agencyNews")
private List<AgencyNews> anews;
#XmlElement(name = "agency")
private List<Agency> atitle;
#XmlElement(name = "agency")
private List<Agency> aurl;
#XmlElement(name = "footerText")
private List<FooterText> aftxt;
#XmlElement(name = "headerLogo")
private List<HeaderLogo> headerLogoImg;
#XmlElement(name = "aLoginLogo")
private List<ALoginLogo> loginLogoImg;
#XmlElement(name = "aHeaderLogo")
private List<AHeaderLogo> aHeaderLogoImg;
}
_____
public static void xmlWrite(List list, String filePath) {
AgencyLink agencyLink = new AgencyLink();
agencyLink.setAurl(null);
agencyLink.setAnews(list);
agencyLink.setAtitle(null);
agencyLink.setAftxt(null);
agencyLink.setHeaderLogoImg(null);
agencyLink.setLoginLogoImg(null);
agencyLink.setaHeaderLogoImg(null);
if (marshalling(filePath, agencyLink)) {
System.out.println("Success");
}
}
------
#SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
public static Object unMarshalling(String filePath, Class clazz) {
try {
File file = new File(filePath);
JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(clazz);
Unmarshaller jaxbUnmarshaller = jaxbContext.createUnmarshaller();
Object obj = clazz.cast(jaxbUnmarshaller.unmarshal(file));
return obj;
} catch (JAXBException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
From this code i got this below mentioned XML File
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="yes"?>

Java Validate XML Schema with XSDs that import each other [duplicate]

I'm trying to validate an XML file against a number of different schemas (apologies for the contrived example):
a.xsd
b.xsd
c.xsd
c.xsd in particular imports b.xsd and b.xsd imports a.xsd, using:
<xs:include schemaLocation="b.xsd"/>
I'm trying to do this via Xerces in the following manner:
XMLSchemaFactory xmlSchemaFactory = new XMLSchemaFactory();
Schema schema = xmlSchemaFactory.newSchema(new StreamSource[] { new StreamSource(this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("a.xsd"), "a.xsd"),
new StreamSource(this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("b.xsd"), "b.xsd"),
new StreamSource(this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("c.xsd"), "c.xsd")});
Validator validator = schema.newValidator();
validator.validate(new StreamSource(new StringReader(xmlContent)));
but this is failing to import all three of the schemas correctly resulting in cannot resolve the name 'blah' to a(n) 'group' component.
I've validated this successfully using Python, but having real problems with Java 6.0 and Xerces 2.8.1. Can anybody suggest what's going wrong here, or an easier approach to validate my XML documents?
So just in case anybody else runs into the same issue here, I needed to load a parent schema (and implicit child schemas) from a unit test - as a resource - to validate an XML String. I used the Xerces XMLSchemFactory to do this along with the Java 6 validator.
In order to load the child schema's correctly via an include I had to write a custom resource resolver. Code can be found here:
https://code.google.com/p/xmlsanity/source/browse/src/com/arc90/xmlsanity/validation/ResourceResolver.java
To use the resolver specify it on the schema factory:
xmlSchemaFactory.setResourceResolver(new ResourceResolver());
and it will use it to resolve your resources via the classpath (in my case from src/main/resources). Any comments are welcome on this...
http://www.kdgregory.com/index.php?page=xml.parsing
section 'Multiple schemas for a single document'
My solution based on that document:
URL xsdUrlA = this.getClass().getResource("a.xsd");
URL xsdUrlB = this.getClass().getResource("b.xsd");
URL xsdUrlC = this.getClass().getResource("c.xsd");
SchemaFactory schemaFactory = schemaFactory.newInstance(XMLConstants.W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI);
//---
String W3C_XSD_TOP_ELEMENT =
"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" standalone=\"yes\"?>\n"
+ "<xs:schema xmlns:xs=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" elementFormDefault=\"qualified\">\n"
+ "<xs:include schemaLocation=\"" +xsdUrlA.getPath() +"\"/>\n"
+ "<xs:include schemaLocation=\"" +xsdUrlB.getPath() +"\"/>\n"
+ "<xs:include schemaLocation=\"" +xsdUrlC.getPath() +"\"/>\n"
+"</xs:schema>";
Schema schema = schemaFactory.newSchema(new StreamSource(new StringReader(W3C_XSD_TOP_ELEMENT), "xsdTop"));
The schema stuff in Xerces is (a) very, very pedantic, and (b) gives utterly useless error messages when it doesn't like what it finds. It's a frustrating combination.
The schema stuff in python may be a lot more forgiving, and was letting small errors in the schema go past unreported.
Now if, as you say, c.xsd includes b.xsd, and b.xsd includes a.xsd, then there's no need to load all three into the schema factory. Not only is it unnecessary, it will likely confuse Xerces and result in errors, so this may be your problem. Just pass c.xsd to the factory, and let it resolve b.xsd and a.xsd itself, which it should do relative to c.xsd.
From the xerces documentation :
http://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/faq-xs.html
import javax.xml.transform.Source;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource;
import javax.xml.validation.Schema;
import javax.xml.validation.SchemaFactory;
import javax.xml.validation.Validator;
...
StreamSource[] schemaDocuments = /* created by your application */;
Source instanceDocument = /* created by your application */;
SchemaFactory sf = SchemaFactory.newInstance(
"http://www.w3.org/XML/XMLSchema/v1.1");
Schema s = sf.newSchema(schemaDocuments);
Validator v = s.newValidator();
v.validate(instanceDocument);
I faced the same problem and after investigating found this solution. It works for me.
Enum to setup the different XSDs:
public enum XsdFile {
// #formatter:off
A("a.xsd"),
B("b.xsd"),
C("c.xsd");
// #formatter:on
private final String value;
private XsdFile(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
public String getValue() {
return this.value;
}
}
Method to validate:
public static void validateXmlAgainstManyXsds() {
final SchemaFactory schemaFactory = SchemaFactory.newInstance(XMLConstants.W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI);
String xmlFile;
xmlFile = "example.xml";
// Use of Enum class in order to get the different XSDs
Source[] sources = new Source[XsdFile.class.getEnumConstants().length];
for (XsdFile xsdFile : XsdFile.class.getEnumConstants()) {
sources[xsdFile.ordinal()] = new StreamSource(xsdFile.getValue());
}
try {
final Schema schema = schemaFactory.newSchema(sources);
final Validator validator = schema.newValidator();
System.out.println("Validating " + xmlFile + " against XSDs " + Arrays.toString(sources));
validator.validate(new StreamSource(new File(xmlFile)));
} catch (Exception exception) {
System.out.println("ERROR: Unable to validate " + xmlFile + " against XSDs " + Arrays.toString(sources)
+ " - " + exception);
}
System.out.println("Validation process completed.");
}
I ended up using this:
import org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
import org.xml.sax.SAXParseException;
import org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler;
import java.io.IOException;
.
.
.
try {
SAXParser parser = new SAXParser();
parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation", true);
parser.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema", true);
parser.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema-full-checking", true);
parser.setProperty("http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/external-noNamespaceSchemaLocation", "http://your_url_schema_location");
Validator handler = new Validator();
parser.setErrorHandler(handler);
parser.parse("file:///" + "/home/user/myfile.xml");
} catch (SAXException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException ex) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
class Validator extends DefaultHandler {
public boolean validationError = false;
public SAXParseException saxParseException = null;
public void error(SAXParseException exception)
throws SAXException {
validationError = true;
saxParseException = exception;
}
public void fatalError(SAXParseException exception)
throws SAXException {
validationError = true;
saxParseException = exception;
}
public void warning(SAXParseException exception)
throws SAXException {
}
}
Remember to change:
1) The parameter "http://your_url_schema_location" for you xsd file location.
2) The string "/home/user/myfile.xml" for the one pointing to your xml file.
I didn't have to set the variable: -Djavax.xml.validation.SchemaFactory:http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema=org.apache.xerces.jaxp.validation.XMLSchemaFactory
Just in case, anybody still come here to find the solution for validating xml or object against multiple XSDs, I am mentioning it here
//Using **URL** is the most important here. With URL, the relative paths are resolved for include, import inside the xsd file. Just get the parent level xsd here (not all included xsds).
URL xsdUrl = getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("my/parent/schema.xsd");
SchemaFactory schemaFactory = SchemaFactory.newInstance(XMLConstants.W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI);
Schema schema = schemaFactory.newSchema(xsdUrl);
JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(MyClass.class);
Unmarshaller unmarshaller = jaxbContext.createUnmarshaller();
unmarshaller.setSchema(schema);
/* If you need to validate object against xsd, uncomment this
ObjectFactory objectFactory = new ObjectFactory();
JAXBElement<MyClass> wrappedObject = objectFactory.createMyClassObject(myClassObject);
marshaller.marshal(wrappedShipmentMessage, new DefaultHandler());
*/
unmarshaller.unmarshal(getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("your/xml/file.xml"));
If all XSDs belong to the same namespace then create a new XSD and import other XSDs into it. Then in java create schema with the new XSD.
Schema schema = xmlSchemaFactory.newSchema(
new StreamSource(this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/path/to/all_in_one.xsd"));
all_in_one.xsd :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:ex="http://example.org/schema/"
targetNamespace="http://example.org/schema/"
elementFormDefault="unqualified"
attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
<xs:include schemaLocation="relative/path/to/a.xsd"></xs:include>
<xs:include schemaLocation="relative/path/to/b.xsd"></xs:include>
<xs:include schemaLocation="relative/path/to/c.xsd"></xs:include>
</xs:schema>

private String url2;
}
Unmarshalling implementation:
public static void main(String[] args) {

jaxbCore : "org.glassfish.jaxb:jaxb-core:2.3.0.1",
And java 11 is the complier.
Add: , namespace = "http://www.loc.gov/zing/srw/"
to your #XmlRootElement:
#XmlRootElement(name = "searchRetrieveResponse", namespace = "http://www.loc.gov/zing/srw/")
...this is what the error message complains about: A mismatch in the namespace!
unexpected element (uri:"http://www.loc.gov/zing/srw/", local:"searchRetrieveResponse").
Expected elements are <{}searchRetrieveResponse>
The {} means empty ("") namespace, in this case.
If namespace omit, it defaults to "##default"...
If the value is "##default", then the XML namespace name is derived from the package of the class ( XmlSchema ). If the package is unnamed, then the XML namespace is the default empty namespace.
EDIT:
In your scenario, I would generate the classes with (built-in) xjc (command line tool ...in ${java.home}/bin)
xjc -d generated <schema>
...where gnerated will be the output folder for the classes (.java files) and <schema> can be a file URL or (structured)directory (with your (readonly) xsd(s)).
Once successfully generated, copy the content of generated into your "main source folder", check it in(, use it) and only change it, when xsd changes.

How to remove some elements from XML file generated using JAXB?

I have been trying to generate XML file from lists of object of type Customer class.
Which i have done successfully.But the structure of my XML file is nested and i want to flatten it out.
Following is my XML file content:

So i have nested structure for <accessRole> which i want to flatten out like
<accessRole-name>and i don't want to display element like <internalId>.
Please find a code snippet of my model:
try {
FileWriter fileWriter = new FileWriter ("D:\\adapter-framework\\Customer_XML.xml");
JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(extractedRecordsArray[0].getClass());
Marshaller jaxbMarshaller = jaxbContext.createMarshaller();
fileWriter.append("<Customers>");
fileWriter.append('\n');
for(int i = 0; i < extractedRecordsArray.length - 761 ; i++)
{
jaxbMarshaller.setProperty("com.sun.xml.bind.xmlDeclaration", Boolean.FALSE);
jaxbMarshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, true);
//jaxbMarshaller.marshal(extractedRecordsArray[i],fileWriter);
jaxbMarshaller.marshal(extractedRecordsArray[i],System.out);
fileWriter.append('\n');
AdapterLogger.debug(this.getClass().getName(), "Extracted record number : " + i);
}
fileWriter.append("</Customers>");
fileWriter.close();
} catch (JAXBException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Please help me out if someone knows about it.
Thanks.
Note: I'm the EclipseLink JAXB (MOXy) lead and a member of the JAXB (JSR-222) expert group.
You can use the #XmlPath extension in MOXy to flatten the XML structure.

JAXB: Namespace missing

I am trying to serialize an XML from a class generated via JAXB.
The class:
package ws.avail;
#XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
#XmlType(name = "", propOrder = {
"pos",
"uniqueID",
"availStatusMessages"
})
#XmlRootElement(name = "OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ")
public class OTAHotelAvailNotifRQ {
...
}
File "package-info.java":
#javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlSchema(namespace = "http://www.opentravel.org/OTA/2003/05", elementFormDefault = javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlNsForm.QUALIFIED)
package ws.avail;
The marshaller (simplified without error handling):
context = JAXBContext.newInstance(rootElement.getClass());
Marshaller marshaller = context.createMarshaller();
marshaller.marshal(rootElement, stringWriter);
return stringWriter.toString();
This code generates:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ Version="1.000" Target="TEST">
....
I expect something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ xmlns="http://www.opentravel.org/OTA/2003/05" Version="1.000" Target="TEST">
....
I have a similar code and works correctly, but I am unable to see why this code doesn't display the namespace. Any clue? Thanks!
YOUR MAPPINGS ARE CORRECT
I tried out your model and it works for me:
Demo
package ws.avail;
import java.io.StringWriter;
import javax.xml.bind.*;
public class Demo {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
OTAHotelAvailNotifRQ rootElement = new OTAHotelAvailNotifRQ();
StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();
JAXBContext context = JAXBContext.newInstance(rootElement.getClass());
Marshaller marshaller = context.createMarshaller();
marshaller.marshal(rootElement, stringWriter);
System.out.println(stringWriter.toString());
}
}
Output
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?><OTA_HotelAvailNotifRQ xmlns="http://www.opentravel.org/OTA/2003/05"/>
SOLUTION
Usually when this problem occurs the package-info class was not compiled or not packaged with the application.

Can I get MOXy to rename an element when generating json?

From a common JAXB model the xml generated can be of the form
<ipi-list><ipi>1001</ipi><ipi>1002</ipi></ipi-list>
because in json we have arrays we dont need both elements, so by using MOXy's oxml extensions I can flatten the output to give
"ipi" : [ "1001", "1002" ],
but because ipi now refers to an array of things I would like it to be called ipis not ipi
"ipis" : [ "1001", "1002" ],
Is there a way to get MOXy to rename an element ?
You could use EclipseLink JAXB (MOXy)'s external mapping document to tweak the mapping for either the XML or JSON representation.
IPIList
Below is a domain class with JAXB annotations that matches the XML representation from your question:
package forum11449219;
import java.util.*;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;
#XmlRootElement(name="ipi-list")
public class IPIList {
private List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
#XmlElement(name="ipi")
public List<String> getList() {
return list;
}
public void setList(List<String> list) {
this.list = list;
}
}
oxm.xml
We can use MOXy's external mapping document to modify how the list property is mapped to JSON.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xml-bindings
xmlns="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/xsds/persistence/oxm"
package-name="forum11449219">
<java-types>
<java-type name="IPIList">
<java-attributes>
<xml-element java-attribute="list" name="ipis"/>
</java-attributes>
</java-type>
</java-types>
</xml-bindings>
jaxb.properties
To specify MOXy as your JAXB provider you need to include a file called jaxb.properties in the same package as your domain model with the following entry (see ):
javax.xml.bind.context.factory=org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.JAXBContextFactory
Demo
The following demo code shows how to reference the external mapping document when creating a JAXBContext.
package forum11449219;
import java.util.*;
import javax.xml.bind.*;
import org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.JAXBContextProperties;
public class Demo {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
IPIList ipiList = new IPIList();
ipiList.getList().add("1001");
ipiList.getList().add("1002");
// XML
JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance(IPIList.class);
Marshaller xmkMarshaller = jc.createMarshaller();
xmkMarshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, true);
xmkMarshaller.marshal(ipiList, System.out);
// JSON
Map<String, Object> properties = new HashMap<String, Object>(3);
properties.put(JAXBContextProperties.OXM_METADATA_SOURCE, "forum11449219/oxm.xml");
properties.put(JAXBContextProperties.MEDIA_TYPE, "application/json");
properties.put(JAXBContextProperties.JSON_INCLUDE_ROOT, false);
JAXBContext jsonJC = JAXBContext.newInstance(new Class[] {IPIList.class}, properties);
Marshaller jsonMarshaller = jsonJC.createMarshaller();
jsonMarshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, true);
jsonMarshaller.marshal(ipiList, System.out);
}
}
Output
Here is the output from running the demo code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ipi-list>
<ipi>1001</ipi>
<ipi>1002</ipi>
</ipi-list>
{
"ipis" : [ "1001", "1002" ]
}
