I'm trying to extract xml data stored in a clob in an oracle table. Can you extract this data using pl/sql? Does anyone have an example? Found some incomplete examples on the web?

I don't know which one it is.
I don't know what EXACTLY you want to do.

I'm interfacing data between two databases. I need to extract the xml data stored in a clob and then load the parsed data into a different Oracle table.


I've been experimenting with xmltable and extract. Haven't been able to parse the data

Thanks! I'm following your link and reading through the examples.

The examples are pretty straight forward but I noticed the DOCTYPE tag is not included in the examples (the examples that I've read so far)

The data in the clob column appears as follows


(CLOB) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE properties SYSTEM "http //java.sun.com/dtd/properties.dtd">
<properties>
<comment>Comment</comment>
<entry key="@DemoLicense@">true</entry> ...


Will the additional DOCTYPE tag cause a problem when parsing?
