Splitting huge XML Files into fixsized wellformed parts
Hi,

I need to split xml-files with sizes greater than 2 gb into smaler chunks. As I dont want to end up with billions of files, I want those splitted files to have configurable sizes like 250 MB. Each file should be well formed having an exact copy of the header (and footer as the closing of the header) from the original file. Forthermore, a table should be generated were I can see, that the File X is seperated into Part N with timestamp:

The Original XML-Files look like this:

<?xml ...>
<Headerelement with some infos to be copied 1to1>
<OfferInfo>
<OfferID></OfferID>
...
</OfferInfo>
<OfferInfo>
<OfferID></OfferID>
...
</OfferInfo>
<OfferInfo>
<OfferID></OfferID>
...
</OfferInfo>
</Headerelement>

-------------------------
Protocol Table:

Orginalfilename|Name of PartN|Size of PartN|Timestamp

-------------------------

All in all I ended up with reading the XML processing docus of gawk,
but as it seems I am lacking some deeper programming skills.. Could
someone please help?

Thx
Malapha

xmltex

XMLTEX(1)						      General Commands Manual							 XMLTEX(1)

NAME

       xmltex, pdfxmltex - xml non-validating parser in TeX

SYNOPSIS

       xmltex xml file
       pdfxmltex xml file

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the xmltex, and pdfxmltex commands.	This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
       because the original program does not have a manual page.  Instead, it has documentation in HTML and PS format in the /usr/share/doc/xmltex
       directory.

       xmltex  and  pdfxmltex is a TeX XML parser able to transform XML documents into .dvi files.  xmltex knows nothing about your XML files.	It
       needs to load some special macros files, usually with the .xmt extension.  A configuration file, either named xmltex.cfg  or  jobname.cfg,
       is parsed.  An especially useful configuration command is xmltraceoff which disables XML elements tracing.

       xmltex  already	knows about many XML schemata, such as TEI, TEI.2, MathML, SEC, HTML and XSL-FO, the support for the latest being provided
       by the passivetex package.

SEE ALSO

       The programs are documented fully in their own manual in the /usr/share/doc/xmltex directory.
       latex(1), tex(1)
