Requirements:
- Oracle 10g (or above)
- Oxygen (XML Editor)
Tutorial
1. Open Oxygen and create a new document of type XSLT
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:sql="org.apache.xalan.lib.sql.XConnection"
extension-element-prefixes="sql">
<xsl:output method="html" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable
name="movies"
select="sql:new('oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver'
,'jdbc:oracle:thin:@ipaddress:sid','username','password')" />
<xsl:variable name="streaming" select="sql:disableStreamingMode($movies)" />
<xsl:variable
name="queryResults"
select="sql:query($movies,'SELECT movie, actor FROM movie')" />
<html>
<head><title>Oracle Result Set</title></head>
<body style="font-family: sans-serif;">
<table border="1" cellpadding="5">
<tr>
<xsl:for-each select="$queryResults/sql/metadata/column-header">
<th><xsl:value-of select="@column-label" /></th>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
<xsl:apply-templates select="$queryResults/sql/row-set/row" />
</table>
</body>
</html>
<xsl:value-of select="sql:close($movies)" />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="row">
<tr><xsl:apply-templates select="col" /></tr>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="col">
<td><xsl:value-of select="text()" /></td>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
3. Be sure to make your changes accordingly
4. After pasting your code in the text area click on the XSLT debugger button as shown in the image below:
5. Click on the Run button
6. VoilĂ ! Now look at the result, and here is what I got from my XSLT:
MOVIE | ACTOR |
---|---|
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade | Alison Doody |
Indiana Jones and Raiders of the Lost Ark | Harrison Ford |
Indiana Jones and Raiders of the Lost Ark | Denholm Elliott |
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade | Sean Connery |
Indiana Jones and Raiders of the Lost Ark | Jonn Rhys-Davies |
