Carve out the question of the function

I am very new to SQL and PL/SQL so please be patient with me.  I am trying to write a select statement for a list of values in Oracle Report Builder settings.  I need the list of values to contain the prefix unique instrument for every instrument that we have.  What I have in the database are the instrument unique IDs (prefixes + identification numbers).  I have need to cut all but the prefix of these identification numbers to create a list of values.  I do not know how because I wouldn't be cut the chain in the same way for each prefix of instrument.  For example if I have instrument IDs P123, BN1234, 3 m 123 and IMWR1234 need me the prefixes to be P, NL, 3 m and IMWR.  Is it possible to use a trim function in this situation or is there another function I should use? Any suggestions?

Hello

Whenever you have a problem, please post a small example data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements) of all the tables involved, so that people who want to help you can recreate the problem and test their ideas.

Also post the results you want from this data, as well as an explanation of how you get these results from these data, with specific examples.  For example, "I want the first group of letters at the beginning of the string.  It may or may not be some numbers before the letters; If Yes, I want to include these numbers, too. »

Always say what version of Oracle you are using (for example, 11.2.0.2.0).

See the FAQ forum: https://forums.oracle.com/message/9362002

Maybe you want something like:

SELECT instrument_id

REGEXP_SUBSTR (instrument_id,

", ' ^ [[: digit:]] * [[: alpha:]] +"

) AS instrument_prefix

Instruments

;

REGEXP_SUBSTR above returns a substring of the bigininng of the string (it is that ^ means).

The substring consists of 0 or more numbers (* means 0 or more here) followed by 1 or more letters (+ means 1 or more).

    This looks like a driver problem. First of all, try to see if you can find a newer audio driver, may also update drivers for related equipment such as the dock and the chipset.

    If this does not help, you can try to see if disabling exclusive mode. If off exclusive mode help the issue, but makes it impossible for you to connect to the codec, check all the settings recording. You may have to disable all effects microphone such as the cancellation of the echo for your card to work without exclusive mode.

  • Ask questions about the functionality of EA8500 MU-MIMO

    Dear Linksys

    I bought EA8500, and it arrived today.

    I have two questions about the functionality of MU-MIMO of EA8500 AP.

    1. I want to compare the performance between SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO, but there is no option to control this feature in the router admin page. Is that one of the possible ways?

    2 EA8500 supports 1733 Mbps wireless speed, but it resembles the speed of 1 Gbps ethernet cable.

    This router supports really speed 1 Gbps ethernet? or y at - it an option to support more throughput as the aggregation of links?

    Thank you

    Hi, hyeonu. For your first query, it is not possible because there is no option to disable the feature of MU-MIMO on your Linksys EA8500 router. In addition, with regard to your second, you can get a higher throughput of 1 Gbps since this is the maximum capacity of your ethernet connection.

  • Call the function QML from C++ (simple question)

    I guess that's a pretty easy question but I'm a bit new apart from development c ++ of BB10. I have a QML file in the assets folder called Functions.qml which has only onne inside functions.

    import bb.cascades 1.3
    
    Page {
        objectName: "funct"
        function printStat() {
            console.log("hello");
        }
    }
    

    In one of the functions in applicationui.cpp there is a function called resendNotification() (you may know this code from the model of the app without head)

    void ApplicationUI::resendNotification()
    {
        InvokeRequest request;
        request.setTarget("com.example.TestNotificationService");
        request.setAction("com.example.TestNotificationService.RESET");
        m_invokeManager->invoke(request);    // --> call the printStat() function of Functions.qml file
        Application::instance()->minimize();
    }
    

    My question is, before you minimize the app How can I call the function printStat() of the qml file? I have always developed my apps in QML so never had to deal with c ++. Should be easy enough to call a function well.

    Thank you in advance!

    first step is to find the object by ObjectName using findChild, usually from your element root (navigationPane).
    example:
    NAV-> findChild ("myTextField")

    If you have the object of another source that is fine too, of course.

    second step is to use QMetaObject::invokeMethod with the object and the name of the method.
    Example:
    QMetaObject::invokeMethod (container, "setText", Q_ARG (QVariant, text));

  • Shortcut of the hearing or a Technique similar to "Carve out at playhead" first?

    One of my most beloved shortcuts and workflows in first Pro is the function 'Trim to the head"(shortcuts Q and W). Let's say there are 2 seconds of junk at the beginning of a clip I want to cut out. I simply use my arrows to get the point just to the right, then I press Q. Bam. The incision is made, and the clip is slid to the Point. A keypress and I'm done.

    Something similar is possible in the hearing? When I'm editing voiceover of long term, referring to the three steps instead of one really adds time. Right now I'm going to have to split the clip, select it, delete it Ripple and then move my time tool.

    Thank you.

    I'm afraid I don't know of such an effect in hearing (and despite using Premiere Pro for years ever discovered is so thanks for the tip!).  However, it sounds like a good idea - it might be useful to submit a feature request.  I know the developers are paying attention and if we are lucky it might be an easy change as the code is there on the PRI.  (Or it can be very difficult... I'm not a developer! )

    HI -.

    As a prelude to 2014.0, we have added a feature allowing you to choose what number to start the increment of.  Look in the section ingest Rename dialog and change your preset. When you click the button, you should see the option "Custom Auto Increment". This will allow you to choose what number to start on.  We've also added a few newspapers to try to remember where let prelude last successfully interfere the operation by using this option. So, in theory, to remember the number for you. But if it isn't (maybe you want multiple kickoff ingested at the same time) you can always manually set the number to start with.

    Check that out and let me know how it works for you.

    Kind regards

  • Flash questions CC 2014 with the function to hide the edges and much more

    It seems that in each new version of Flash rather than fix the old Adobe bugs only adds new...

    I just moved from the 6 CC 2014 CS and now when I want to use the function to hide the edges (which they "kindly" changed the shortcut to) once I do a little change, say, the color of the shape or line that I recover the selection, even if the menu "hide edges" is always marked.

    The touch line, I can't use this feature, it is useless, and now it's really hard to choose the right colors for my work.

    I searched the net, has not found on it, does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone have a solution?

    Another bug is when I have a layer selected and then I lock it, the selection remains, and the only way to clear this refresh bug is to hide the layer and show it again...

    New - anyone have this problem? or has a solution?

    So much refresh / focus bugs that move from one version to the other, I do not understand why adobe is not their fixation. Makes me think to return to an old license and to stop paying so much money for a full old bugs of adobe software.

    Hello

    The problem with the feature to hide the edges is fixed and will be available in the next version. I could see the screen refresh problem with layer of lock after you raw forms of copy/cut paste. We will take a peek.

  • I hope that the question simple Analytic Functions

    Hi, we are on 10.2.0.4 under Red Hat Linux.

    I have a situation I don't know can be answered better with analytics, but I'm fighting to get the best solution.

    First of all defined data:

    CREATE TABLE POSITION_ASGN
    (THE VARCHAR2 (5) OF EMPLID NOT NULL)
    DATE OF ASOFDATE
    , ACT_POSN VARCHAR2 (5) not null
    , SUB_POSN VARCHAR2 (5) not null
    RPT_POSN VARCHAR2 (5) not null)
    ;
    INSERT INTO POSITION_ASGN
    VALUES (' EMP01', to_date('01-JAN-2013','dd-mon-yyyy'), '00065', '00065','00033 ' ")
    ;
    INSERT INTO POSITION_ASGN
    VALUES (' EMP01', to_date('01-FEB-2013','dd-mon-yyyy'), '00096', '00065','00054 ' ")
    ;
    INSERT INTO POSITION_ASGN
    VALUES (' EMP02', to_date('01-JAN-2013','dd-mon-yyyy'), '00096', '00096','00054 ' ")
    ;
    INSERT INTO POSITION_ASGN
    VALUES (' EMP03', to_date('01-JAN-2013','dd-mon-yyyy'), '00103', '00096','00054 ' ")
    ;
    INSERT INTO POSITION_ASGN
    VALUES (' EMP04', to_date('01-JAN-2013','dd-mon-yyyy'), '00117', '00096','00054 ' ")
    ;
    INSERT INTO POSITION_ASGN
    VALUES ('MGR01', to_date('01-JAN-2013','dd-mon-yyyy'), '00054', ' 00054', ' 00017')
    ;
    INSERT INTO POSITION_ASGN
    VALUES ('MGR02', to_date('01-JAN-2013','dd-mon-yyyy'), '00054', ' 00054', ' 00017')
    ;



    Titles of the table where a person is in the organization.
    ASOFDATE - history of tracks over time
    ACT_POSN - acting, where the person is physically
    SUB_POSN - substantive position, where the person should be, usually the same as ACT_POSN, but if you're ready to someone else it's your original position
    RPT_POSN - that make you in your acting

    What I do is on a given date, with a number of given position return a data set that shows all holders acting in a column, all substantive holders in a second column and all holders acting position reports in a third column.

    Ignoring the notion of date at the moment, I can create a simple union query to:

    SELECT 'ACTING' 'MODE', 'NUMBER', EMPLID ACT_POSN
    OF POSITION_ASGN
    WHERE ACT_POSN = '00096'
    UNION
    SELECT 'SUBST' 'MODE', SUB_POSN, EMPLID
    OF POSITION_ASGN
    WHERE SUB_POSN = '00096'
    UNION
    SELECT "MGR" 'MODE', A.ACT_POSN, A.EMPLID
    OF POSITION_ASGN A, POSITION_ASGN B
    Where A.ACT_POSN = B.RPT_POSN
    AND B.ACT_POSN = '00096'


    Produce a single output
    ACTING EMP01 00096
    ACTING 00096 EMP02
    BISHOP 00054 MGR01
    BISHOP 00054 MGR02
    SUBST 00096 EMP02
    SUBST 00096 EMP03
    SUBST 00096 EMP04

    But I can throw it in a table of 3 lines according to the value of 'MODE' so that I find myself with
    MANAGER - BACKGROUND - ACTING
    EMP01 - EMP02 - MGR01
    EMP02 - EMP03 - MGR02
    vacuum - EMP04 - white

    I could see how I could generate a Rank() on parittion by NUMBER, MODE to find out the fact that I need 3 rows (because there are three background PGE in 00096), maybe as an argument of the no_lig object and then select join based on the MODE and the value of the no_lig argument, but it all feels so round the houses that I wonder if doe analytics that can better.

    Does anyone have advice / sample code I could bone?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements; It's very useful!

    That means each line of output represent? It seems that the nth line output has the distinct interim nth emplid, the nth emplid background and the nth Manager happens to one of the many. The columns of each row are all related to the same ('00096' in this case) target id, but other than that, they seem to have no real connection between them.
    It looks like a Fixed price query , like this:

    )
    ,     got_r_num     AS
    (
         SELECT     u.*
         ,     DENSE_RANK () OVER ( PARTITION BY  target_id
                                   ,                    mode_abbr
                             ORDER BY        emplid

    There may be times when you'll want to do this for multiple targets together, is not only a target (for example, ' 00096'). The first auxiliary request, target, specify any number you want, including 1
    Instead of making a UNION 3 way to unpivot data, it will be probably more effective to cross the join to a 'table' with 3 rows. What's the next sub-querry, all_modes, for.
    The 3rd subquery, unpivoted_data, finds the relevant lines in position_asgn and unpivots or divided) 3 ranks, for the 3 modes.
    The following subquery, got_r_num, gives the line number for each distinct to display value. This could be done in the previous subquery, no cross data dynamic, but to avoid repeating the expression BOX great, I used a separate subquery. If you don't care the order of the items, you can easily use DENSE_RANK in unpivoted_data.
    The application main re - merges the nth lines for each target 1 row. If you don't have only one target, then, of course, then you need not display target_id.

  • Question about merging with the function of the background

    Hello, I was wondering if someone can tell me when it is useful to use the fusion with the function of the background.  I see nothing in the documentation on the subject. It seems to me that you can make your changes on the master slide, and you would not need the feature.  If I'm misunderstanding please let me know, thanks.

    Hello

    Is not safe to be comprehensive here, just my ideas. If you merge objects with the background on a master slide, you can save on the size of the file, because the background is an image, compared to several objects. You will not be able to edit these objects more. Also the slide background will always be behind any object. For slides model objects you can have them either on top, where they sit on top of the stack, or not. If you have objects of time during the rest of the project, they will always be on top of the slide background, but if you slide model objects, they'll be on top of the object of time during the rest of the project, unless you put that one always on top. You can disable to show slides on normal leaves model objects, separately from the power off from the slide background. Some of my ideas. For objects that I still want to be with the background, I'd prefer to merge. For objects that do not always, I will keep the separately and it is of course always the case for the button of interactive form that you cannot merge with the background (which is just an image, non-interactive).

  • Heating problems Strain Gage; Wait for the function measurement of delay

    Hello

    I am able (using four 350 ohm gauges) of the strain using a NI 9237 module with a cDAQ in connection Full deck Type 3. My test is to measure the strain over long periods of time (~ 10 days). The NI 9237 measure strain at a rate of 2000 Hz (this is the slowest rate). The wheatstone bridge is currently powerd with the NI 9237 of 2.5 V. When I get my data permanently, I see the strain increases with time (which it shouldn't do my test), and I suspect it's because of free heating strain gauges. So, to overcome this problem, I think using "Wait (ms)" and ask the program to obtain data once every 5 min. Five minutes should be more than enough to dissipate any overheating of the gauge.

    My question is: if I use the function 'wait (ms)', is my sensor (extensometer) are constantly under tension during the time-out of 5 minutes? I think that the functions "queue" are used inside a loop to allow a VI to sleep during the prescribed period (correct me if I'm wrong). So, it means that the sensor is not powered during this time?

    Thank you

    SID

    I wouldn't use "wait" function for your timing... software you can use the time elapsed or other timing functions
