Dealing with Opaque messages in 11g BPEL - Part2

Once the opaque message was decoded into a string , we faced another challenge of converting that string into a valid XML and use that XML in BPEL transformations. Here the problem is that the incoming XML often doesn't have a namespace!

So we did the following to make it usable in XSLT transformations

1.       Generated an XSD with the incoming XML and  added a custom targetnamespace to the that xsd

2.       Attached that namespace to the decoded string.

3.       Created a BPEL variable with the XSD generated in step1.

4.       Used oraext:parseXML function to parse the decoded string and assigned it to the BPEL variable created in step3.

5.       Used that BPEL Variable in a transformation.

Please write to me if you require the sample code.

Have a nice day.
