Collection of varchar conversion - PLSQL

Similar Questions

• Long Varchar conversion?

  OK, so I'm trying to analyze the source code of compiled views. so I'm going with a simple:

  long value 1000000

  Select the text in dba_views where view_name = "DBA_VIEWS;

  I use DBA_VIEWS just to keep the results to short, because everyone has it... and it's mildly amusing to choose from to

  In reality, I will have a wider where clause.

  So, now I want to search the text for some references, diagrams and tables. So let's just look at "sys."

  Select text

  from dba_views

  where view_name = "DBA_VIEWS.

  and instr (text, 'sys') > 0;

  ERROR on line 4:

  ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected NUMBER got LONG

  Large.

  OK, so I'm doing a research to try to understand to get 'convert' a long varchar and each solution according to me, is to 'migration' of the data. In other words, it assumes that you have created your own TABLE with a LONG data type, and the need to MOVE in another TABLE. Which is not even close to what I'm doing here. I question the fair data.

  Then I come across this little gem:

  http://asktom.Oracle.com/pls/Apex/f?p=100:11:0:P11_QUESTION_ID:839298816582

  Candy!

  So I give that a try:

  (I've renamed its function, but has not changed any other logic, or another change of name).

  FUNCTION to CREATE or REPLACE f_long_to_varchar

  (p_tname IN VARCHAR2,

  p_cname IN VARCHAR2,

  p_rowid IN ROWID

  )

  RETURN VARCHAR2

  AS

  l_cursor INTEGER default dbms_sql.open_cursor;

  l_n NUMBER;

  l_long_val VARCHAR2 (4000);

  l_long_len NUMBER;

  l_buflen NUMBER: = 4000;

  l_curpos NUMBER: = 0;

  BEGIN

  DBMS_SQL. Parse (l_cursor,

  "SELECT" | p_cname | 'FROM ' | p_tname |

  ' WHERE rowid =: x',.

  DBMS_SQL.native);

  DBMS_SQL.bind_variable (l_cursor, ': x', p_rowid);

  DBMS_SQL.define_column_long (l_cursor, 1);

  l_n: = dbms_sql.execute (l_cursor);

  IF (dbms_sql.fetch_rows (l_cursor) > 0) THEN

  DBMS_SQL.column_value_long (l_cursor, 1, l_buflen, l_curpos,)

  (l_long_val, l_long_len);

  END IF;

  DBMS_SQL.close_cursor (dbms_sql.open_cursor);

  RETURN l_long_val;

  END f_long_to_varchar;

  /

  Select f_long_to_varchar (text) in the dba_views where view_name = "DBA_VIEWS;

  ERROR on line 1:

  ORA-00997: illegal use of the LONG data type

  Large. So, does anyone have other ideas?

  How can I query the dba_views and sweep the text as a varchar field?

  Can it be done without moving the data to a temp table? Or the other case - how to do?

  I'm coming up absolutely empty on that.

  Thank you!

  Without creating additional objects, you can try the following query. It supports the content of greater than 32 KB size.

  However, it is quite slow.

  Select v.owner

  v.view_name

  x.text

  from dba_views v

  , xmltable ('/ LINES/LINES/VIEW_T ')

  passage (document xmlparse

  () DBMS_METADATA.get_XML

  schema-online v.owner

  , object_type-online "VIEW".

  name-online v.view_name

  )

  correct

  )

  path of clob columns text "TEXT".

  ) x

  where instr (x.text, 'QA') > 0

  - and v.view_name = 'DBA_STREAMS_COLUMNS. '

• implicit conversion to sql

  Hi guys,.
  
  I have a question on how the oracle is posting implicit conversion in the following cases.
  
  I have a table: table1 with two columns: a number (10), b varchar2 (10). Both are indexed unique.
  
  
  If I have a SQL like this:

  select * from table1 where a = '99'

  the implicit conversion is performed on '99' and the final SQL will be something like:

  select * from table1 where a = to_number ('99')

  the same thing will happen with 'aaa' and I get an error. Please note that represents the column and the index will be used.
  
  If I have a sql like:

  select * from table1 where b = 99

  Note that b is the varchar2 column.
  the implicit conversion will be done on the column and the index will not be used

  select * from table1 where to_number (b) = 99

  THEN, forgetting for a moment that it is not OK to allow an implicit conversion, what are the rules that apply here? If the number, the conversion will be made on the value and varchar conversion will be performed on the column? What else?
  
  
  Thank you

• using indexes on varchar confusion with pl/sql collections

  Hi, I seek to learn the mechanics behind the collections and have done ok so far until I came across you try using the index of varchar.
  
  I use the following code: -.

  declare

    for student_no in student.first .. student.last
    loop
      dbms_output.put_line(   'STUDNET NAME:'
                           || student(student_no).first
                           || ' '

        end loop;
      end loop;
    end loop;
  end;

  the problem I have is in the second loop when trying to display 2 different types of address (IE home and term).
  
  because its indexed by a varchar, I get the following error: -.
  ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital or value error: character of number conversion error
  
  How can I get around that, when a loop in the associative arrays that are indexed by varchar?
  
  Thank you very much

  Hello..

  The problem is tat you can not use a "student (student_no).address.first" and "student (student_no).address.last" in a loop; because they are varchar2 index...

  Yo can use, something like that...

      nuStudent := student(student_no).address.count;
      for add_type in 1 ..nuStudent 
  

• PLSQL Collection for the holding of the identifiers

  Hello experts,

  I ask for your help?

  I have tables like this: COMP_REL (PARENT NUMBER, NUMBER of CHILDREN) and COMP_INFO (NUMBER CHILD,...).

  In a procedure, I need to make several select statements of COMP_INFO for all children under a parent (grouping of different columns of COMP_INFO).

  The problem is that COMP_REL table is huge. How can I use PLSQL collection (or table) to store the children of COMP_REL I need and then join this collection with COMP_INFO to get different data?

  It is advisable to use collections PLSQL for this purpose at all?

  
  

  Thank you, Atanas.
  

  Hello

  I used analytical functions for the info that I need with only a query the comp_info table (didn't need to interrogate several times). So I didn't have to use TWG or a collection of temporary cache results.

  Thank you very much for your help!

• Why Table function is not allowed on the collections defined in PLSQL?

  We all know that we can use the function table on collections defined as database object type. Why cant Oracle provide this function for defined collections in PLSQL?

  For prior 12c version you can play around with pipelined functions.

• Select the data from collections plsql

  Hi all
  
  I'm not a developer but working as a DBA, so not very familiar with pl/sql, always crossed with documentation and could lead to a solution of my problem. I need advice from expert here.
  
  Problem: I am writing in a kind of special program plsql for surveillance of certain lots, I know that we have much option to do the same db/grid control including... etc but for some
  the reason I have to do this, use only plsql.
  
  Requirement: my requirement is to select data in the plsql table and then have the opportunity to ask questions again and again. I prefer not to go to table, rather than directly from plsql...
  
  I wrote below the code for the sample, bulk data in collection type collection and can print using the loop.
  
  Declare
  TS type is table v$ session % rowtype index by pls_integer;
  tsess ts.
  Start
  Select * bulk collect into tsess from v$ session;
  I'm looping 1.tsess.count
  dbms_output.put_line (tsess (i) .terminal);
  end loop;
  end;
  /
  
  But is it possible same collection (tsess in the example above) can be queried using a select as ' select * from table (Tsess) "I searched the net and found this can be done using create type at the database level.» But my problem is that I can't create any object in the database as being it's a production one.
  
  I was looking as if is it possible even can be accomplished... as cast / multiset... However, I could not get it through.
  
  your help would be appreciated!
  
  Kind regards

  I don't think you should use the tables here, only SQL, take a look at the factors of subquery and will indicate if it is not enough...

  Published by: BrendanP on February 12, 2012 03:07 for an example:

  I understand you want to "Refresh" of data that you already have the database purely to be able to use the SQL such as ORDER BY in multiple ways. Here's how you can do it in the original SQL for a particular example, where you query v$ sql time control processor and disk reads separately (I tested it but the result won't be good look here, so omitting it):

  WITH v AS (
  SELECT
      Substr (sql_text,1,500)             sql_text,
      cpu_time/1000000                    cpu_seconds,
      disk_reads,
      buffer_gets,
      executions,
      CASE WHEN rows_processed != 0 THEN Round( buffer_gets / Nvl (Replace (rows_processed, 0, 1) ,1)) END Buffer_gets_rows_proc,
      Round (buffer_gets / Nvl (Replace (executions, 0, 1), 1)) Buffer_gets_executions,
      elapsed_time / 1000000              elapsed_second,
      module
  FROM v$sql s)
  SELECT
      'CPU'                order_by,
      cpu_seconds          order_val,
      sql_text,
      cpu_seconds,

• Type of collection in PLSQL and Oracle

  Hi all
  
  I define a collection type in Oracle. When I try to use it in following PLSQL, I "PLSQL-00405: subquery not allowed in this context" error. How can I use the values that I have previously defined in the collection for this case?

• PLSQL collection

  Hi all
  
  I would like to use collect (or table) in order to maintain some predefined values, which can be used later in the PLSQL. Here's what I have: ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: NUMBER expected...
  
  Any idea?
  
  Thanks in advance,

  SELECT *.

  Edited by: user550903 29-Sep-2011 11:10

  Still, you can use the local collection type (type declared in a PL/SQL). You must declare it in SQL. Then use:

  WHERE tesNbr in (select * from table(v_testMap));

• Can we do a query returns a collection plsql?

  Im trying to develop a function that returns a table nested records to a sql query, but I get
  ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected - was -.
  ORA-06512: at "CDB_WEB. PIPE_RESULTS', line 38
  
  The original version of this function (which works) is a function in the pipeline is no longer usable we hit a bug with functions in pipeline oracle in our production server and need to try a workaround...
  
  It's what I've done:
  
  1. create the type of record and the nested in the schema table:
  
  Create the OBJECT IS of TXR_RECORD type

  source tank (3),
  info1 VARCHAR2 (4000).

  Info3 VARCHAR2 (4000).
  info4 VARCHAR2 (4000));
  /
  CREATE the type txr_table IS TABLE OF THE txr_record;
  /
  
  2 update plsql function to populate the nested table:
  
  FUNCTION to CREATE or REPLACE pipe_results (p_external_id VARCHAR2,
  p_source VARCHAR2,
  P_FROM INTEGER,
  p_to INTEGER)
  RETURN txr_table

  BEGIN
  
  sqlstr: = ' SELECT external_id, source, info1, info2, info3, info4

  WHERE source =: x (this reads: x without the gap in the code, but it appears as a smily face if I repeat here)
  AND external_id =: y
  ORDER BY info4';
  
  
  Cv1 OPEN for sqlstr HELP p_source, p_external_id;
  Cv1 FETCH BULK COLLECT INTO l_txr;
  Cv1 CLOSE;
  
  l_from: = p_from;

  END IF;
  END LOOP;

  /
  
  
  3. so far, everything seems ok, but when I try and call it since sql:
  
  Select the source, info1, info2, info3, external_id, info4
  table (pipe_results ('PMC1687509', 'PMC', 1, 5));
  
  I get the error:

  Im sure Im overlooking something basic despite re-reading the documentation and plsql programming Im a bit confused... is it possible to do what I try without using a pipeline function?

  I agree with all your points and suggestions, and of course, this isn't a function in pipeline.

  But, as stated in the original post:

  user4208249 wrote:
  The original version of this function (which works) is a function in the pipeline is no longer can be used as we hit an oracle bug with pipeline functions in our
  production server and the need to try a workaround ...

  Of course, it would be preferable if this "Workaround" could use straight SQL and PL/SQL. So, we need a clarification of the o.p.: how to use the current pipeline function?

• I don't want spam to be collected in conversations, I always want to see all the emails sorted by date

  Whenever I answered an email, emails with the same subject are grouped into conversations. To search for a specific post, it's too easy to forget the mail that it could be hidden in a conversation. Can I get rid of chat and just look at all the emails they get?

• conversion of a delimited list of a collection

  Hello
  
  Version 11g r2
  create or replace type jobcheck_type  as object   ( 
  jid VARCHAR2(250),
  jname VARCHAR2(250),
  jtot_mesgs NUMBER,
  jsuccess NUMBER,
  jfailure NUMBER,
  jstart_time TIMESTAMP,
  jcompleted_time  TIMESTAMP,
  jstatus VARCHAR2(50),
  jversion NUMBER
   )
  /
  
  
  create or replace type jobchecktab_type  as table of jobcheck_type
  /
  Now   
  select * from table(jobchecktab_type(jobcheck_type(null,'A,B',30,30,0,null,null,null,null)));
  
  The output is 
  
  null A,B 30 30 0 null null ...
  
  But what I need is
  
  null A 30 30 0 null null
  
  null B 30 30 0 null null
  
  if 
  select * from table(jobchecktab_type(jobcheck_type(null,'A,B,C,D',30,30,0,null,null,null,null)));
  Then output required is 
  
  But what I need is
  
  null A 30 30 0 null null
  
  null B 30 30 0 null null
  
  null C 30 30 0 null null
  
  null D 30 30 0 null null
  
  I'm passing the comma separated values one of the value(jname) in collection and rest other values in collection are constant.
  
  From some reason, I would be needing that to be done in select statement  only i.e select * from table(jobchecktab_type .....
  
  
  

  No problem here:

  Select the IADB

  regexp_substr (jname, ' [^,] +', 1, level) jname,.

  jtot_mesgs,

  jsuccess,

  jfailure,

  jstart_time,

  jcompleted_time,

  jstatus,

  jversion

  from (select *)

  table (jobchecktab_type (jobcheck_type (null, 'A XXXX_YYY, AAAA X, Sweep NEM', 30, 30, 0, null, null, null, null)))

  connect by level<= length(regexp_replace(jname,="" '[^,]+',="" ''))="" +="">
