Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Aimed at Oracle professionals doing or considering XML work, this in-depth guide, covering Oracle8 and Oracle8i, comes from Oracle's lead XML technical evangelist, Steve Meunch. No prior knowledge of XML is required, but readers are assumed to be familiar with SQL and with programming using Java or PL/SQL.

Building Oracle XML Applications opens with an introduction to XML, and an overview of Oracle XML technologies, showing what they do and how they fit together. There is a focus on JDeveloper, Oracle's Java and XML development tool, which can be installed from the CD-ROM supplied, and there are plenty of hands-on examples of how to use it. Then there are chapters on processing XML with PL/SQL or Java, transforming XML with XSLT, publishing data with XSQL pages, generating datagrams (XML documents used for exchanging data), and techniques for storing and loading XML data. The final section has chapters on Oracle XML applications, and topics include an XSQL publishing framework, Java extension functions and using XSQL and XSLT to build personalised portals and discussion forums.

This is a fast-paced handbook packed with example code. The presentation is clear and the technical content is based on the author's deep knowledge of Oracle in general and XML technologies in particular. Highly recommended. --Tim Anderson

Ken North, Dr Dobbs
Must-read book for developers using Oracle databases, XML, PL/SQL, and Java.

5.0 out of 5 stars The first clear and concise treatment of XML and Oracle., 6 Nov 2000
By john.wratten@db.com (London, England) - See all my reviews
There are basically three resources for learning how to harness the power of XML in the Oracle environment: Oracle's Technology Network (OTN), the Oracle XML Handbook by Ben Chang, and this book. The OTN is ok but it can be difficult to pin down the exact information and examples to get you up and running. The XML handbook is really just a rehash of the information on the OTN and therefore, suffers from the same problems. Steve Muench's book, however, is clear, concise, well-written and answers all of those questions that the first two resources neglect. If you've ever posted XML questions on Oracle's discussion forum, its more than likely that Steve Muench has posted the answer to your query. He should now have much more time on his hands as a result of this work !

I would thoroughly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars It delivers, 18 Jul 2001
I've just used this book to assist with the development of a supply chain management system for a major multi-national. The clear and concise examples meant turning design into something that works was pretty easy. The downloaded Java and PL/SQL wrappers loaded fine as well as the XSU utility and XSL (it would have been nice if they were included on a CD-ROM in the first instance but I guess it's all part of the learning process).

It's surprising how many developers are still not aware of these features of Oracle but after producing something really quickly that worked a treat, several others in the team bought the book - probably continually embarrassed to ask for a loan of mine !!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent examples of XML, XLST, and Java, 17 Jul 2001
By A Customer
This book is clearly written, and progresses through layers of complexity in an orderly way. You can view this book in several ways: as a guide to using XML with Oracle; as a practical introduction to XSLT; as a source book for XML path examples; and as a foundation for using Java to implement XML utilities.

...but only with this great book on my desk. Reading your way through OTN to find that piece of information you are looking for, can be a daunting task. Read more
