Hello All,
I have the following scenario where I have to copy a huge XML
document from one DB to the other.. While Loading it to the other database I
would like to just copy certain specific nodes and elements which I am
interested in and ignore the rest.
for eg. lets assume this is the whole document
<root>
<childList>
<child>
<a>a</a>
<b>b</b>
<xlist>
<x>
<y> y</y>
<z>z</z>
</x>
<x>
<y> y1</y>
<z>z1</z>
</x>
</xlist>
</child>
More child nodes list the one above.. with different values, but have
the same node structure..
</childList>
</root>
Now in the above XML I am interested in root/ChildList/Child however I want
only the following nodes <a> ,/xlist/x/y while the document gets stored to the
DB..I would like to have the following XML saved
<root>
<childList>
<child>
<a>a</a>
<xlist>
<x>
<y> y</y>
</x>
<x>
<y> y1</y>
</x>
</xlist>
</child>
More child nodes list the one above.. with different values, but have
the same node structure..
</childList>
</root>
Is there a best and fastest way to do it, rater than running xquery on the
document and creating a new XML from scratch?
or there a way I can run this document over an XSD and make it ignore nodes
which are not part of XSD?
or is there a way I can apply some default filter configured to the Database
which selects only specific nodes?
Please let me know thoughts on this.
Regards Abishek
