Hi,

I want to retrieve values from a XML data stored on CLOB data type and store it in different table.

Can someone help me with retrieving data from Soap Envelope and Soap Body?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope>
<soap:Header>
<company>US</company>
</soap:Header>
<soap:Body>
Data
</soap:Body>
<Account>ABCD1234</Account>
</soap:Envelope>

Thanks a lot..

Now what exactly do you want from this?

Note that there are many examples of getting values from a xml in this JDeveloper, Java & XML forum.

Hi,

This XML is stored in a CLOB data type and I want to retrieve values from this XML, perform some validation and store in a different table.

I am getting below error.

ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed

Thanks.

It is hard to debug some code we don't see.
Please post what you EXACTLY want from the XML you provided.

Table Tab1 has below value

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.o3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.o3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Header>
<company>US</company>
</soap:Header>
<soap:Body>
<Account>ABCD1234</Account>
<party id="336" type="Person" assoc="RegisteredContact on policy">
<Forename>ABCD</Forename>
</party>
<party id="337" type="Person" assoc="RegisteredContact on policy">
<Forename>ABCDEF</Forename>
</party>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

I want to retrieve value ABCD & ABCDEF from Forename field and store it in a variable, perform some validation and store it in different table.

But when i try to store it in different variable using below command, it gives error.

VC_APPLNNBR := VX_MAINTYPE.EXTRACT('/soap:Envelope/soap:Body/party/Forename/text()').GETSTRINGVAL();

, it gives error

Please share the error.
Please share the code (not just one line we are not sure the error we don't know, comes from).
Please copy and paste the execution from SQL*Plus we can then see what happen.
Please read OraFAQ Forum Guide, especially "How to post" section.

You can simplify the query:

WITH data AS (
    SELECT XMLTYPE(
    '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
      <soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.o3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
                     xmlns:xsd="http://www.o3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
                     xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
       <soap:Header>
         <company>US</company> 
       </soap:Header>
       <soap:Body>
       </soap:Body>
       <Account>ABCD1234</Account> 
       <party id="336" type="Person" assoc="RegisteredContact on policy">
         <Forename>ABCD</Forename> 
       </party>
       <party id="337" type="Person" assoc="RegisteredContact on policy">
         <Forename>ABCDEF</Forename> 
       </party>
     </soap:Envelope>') val FROM dual)
   SELECT extractvalue(val, '//Account') account,
          extractvalue(value(x), '//Forename') forename
     FROM data, table(xmlsequence(extract(val, '//Forename'))) x;

ACCOUNT              FORENAME
-------------------- --------------------
ABCD1234             ABCD
ABCD1234             ABCDEF
