Large size XML file problem

843834Aug 15 2002 — edited Jul 23 2003

Hello Gentlemen,

I'll appreciate any input/suggestion on this issue.
here is the scenario.
We get data from the oracle database on weblogic6.1 sp3.
I use DOM to create the xml file from the data that comes out of the db.
Lately we have come accross a problem( when the xml file size grows really big, multiple gigs).

This is my question.
How to handle an XML file where machines memory is less then the size of the file?

FYI. Our problem is not parsing( some may suggest SAX) at all.We want to have some rapid way of creating xml file and not running out of memory as well while using DOM.

I hope this makes some sense.

Thanks in advance
