Sys.xmlType datatype and parsing XML in Oracle9i, 10g onwards

Oracle9i onwards there is new datatype called sys.xmlType. This provides a great way to handle XML documents with minimal or no parsing required.

Listed below is a sample of how to use the xmlType.

Step 1. Create Table of XML type

CREATE TABLE xml_table( xml_col SYS.XMLTYPE );

Step 2. Insert the following XML into the xml_table defined above

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<email>
    <from>xyz@gmail.com</from>
    <to>xyz1@gmail.com</to>
    <subject>some subject</subject>
    <body>some body</body>
</email>

declare

l_temp sys.xmlType;

begin

l_temp := sys.xmlType.createXML('
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<email>
    <from>xyz@gmail.com</from>
    <to>xyz1@gmail.com</to>
    <subject>some subject</subject>
    <body>some body</body>
</email>'
);

insert into xml_table values ( l_Temp);

Commit;

User Hooks in Oracle

User hooks provide the client with the ability to add logic to application processing and to disable optional product processing. These User Hooks take the form of procedures that may be called by the application, in sequence, when the application takes a specified action on a specified object type.

Not all the Oracle Applications API's have user hooks. The API's which have users hooks are listed in the following table

jtf_user_hooks.

So if you are looking to modify/customize a particular API, look for the that API in the the above table.

For example,

select * from jtf_user_hooks where API_NAME = 'CANCEL_ORDER'

Just like triggers, User Hooks can be made to fire pre/post. In order to set a user hook as active , the execute flag has to be set to 'Y'.
