Als trainer, coach, presentator vraag je je soms wel eens af wat men er nou echt van vond. Meestal krijg je incomplete antwoorden hierop en/of is het moeilijk de waarde in te schatten vanwege het missen van een context. Daarom is het erg “cool” dat men dan via via, een artikel opstuurt of terug vind …

I wondered, for a long time, if it were possible to shred automatically XML documents, via Binary XML XMLType storage, the same way as you are able with Object Relational XMLType storage since the Oracle 9.2.0.3.0 version (the first officially supported XMLDB database version).
Based on “standard” object relational storage you need the following requirements and/or take the following steps:
If done properly, drag & dropping your XML documents via for example WebDAV via the enable protocol server, will cause the XDB functionality to check and validate the given XML documents against the registered XML Schema and insert the content automatically in the generated table(s). This mechanism also works via the FTP protocol functionality off the XDB Protocol Server.
I never got it really to work, at least the mechanism was fuzzy to me. Sometimes it did work as expected, sometimes it didn’t. What I didn’t realize, is that I most of the time use XML documents with multiple namespace references. Until one of my students during an XMLDB training, hit a small bug (8473369), regarding using duplicate namespaces in the “wrong” order. XQuery statement don’t have the problem, XML/SQL does, so I reported it via an Service Request. This made me wonder… Would I have the same issue with the namespace references in the registered XML Schema and the XML document. I still have to check the W3C Official XML Namespace Recommendation regarding this issue though…

If you have seen Anjo’s Kolk’s cool “Oracle Interface for Google Visualization API (external data source interface)” blog post, which partly based on the Oracle XMLDB Protocol Adapter functionality, then be aware that direct access off this functionality via the internet is at your own risk. Of course this also counts for the OTN article given here: Creating Oracle Database-backed iGoogle Gadgets.
If you enable HTTP access via, for example, the XDB Protocol Server via the following DBMS_XDB call:
