• Conversion from date to Date

  Hello

  SELECT to_date('20-FEB-2015','DD-MON-YYYY')-to_date(DATE_INFO_UPDATED,'DD-MON-YYYY')

  FROM BO_MASTER where BO_CODE = 264288;

  I'm converting Date_info_Updated to JJ-ME-YYYY format whereas it is already the date data type.

  Value of Date_info_Updated: = 20 February 2015 '

  Thus, the expected output should be 0.

  But I am getting output = 730487.

  Can you explain why?

  Thanks in advance,

  Flavian.

  For more information check under request

  Select * parameter of $ v where name like '% nls_date_format % ';

  Default Date format is DD-MON-RR. So when you apply to_date on date column it will be converts first date to a char that will be February 20, 15 and then when you convert to date once again it will be February 20, 15.

  Don't use new to_date on date columns. If you are worried about the time TRUNC function use.

  What are your needs. What is your output of input and expected.

  Without that no one can give you the right solution. And why you want to convert first date in number?

  Somehow here is an example.

• Control data type conversion

  Topology Manager only allows me the conversion to data type of technology to another. SQL Server has a data type BIT. Default is to convert to a CHAR in Oracle. However, it coverts TANK (1) and the interface fails because the data contains "True" or "False" as values. This forces me to change manually (5) tank & then run again. How can I adjust the settings so that the BIT converts char (5) instead of char (1)?
  
  Thank you
  Dinesh.

  Hi dieng

  Go to the topology, under Oracle and create a new data type, name char5 for example.

  In the text box NAME and CODE OPPOSITE the word "TANK" in the CODE, let's CHAR5 text box

  in the text box: CREATE the TABLE SYNTAX and SYNTAX of DATA WRITEBLE of writing type: char (5)

  In the tab "Convet to", you can associate the SQL BIT for this new data type.

  This help you?

• Extract data from error HFM, float to Numeric?

  Hi all

  Have you tried changing the scale of all the columns float, right?

  It can be a ridiculously large number coming from HFM. So, go to store for your data source in ODI and manually change the data type of column type VARCHAR of size like 100 or more. That would force the ODI to create the staging table with columns of characters for the field. Data will be retrieved anyway. Given that you write it in file, type of character should not matter. In addition, if writing to the file fails for any reason, you can do a max on the staging table and find the value problem in the table (while in HFM, you may not be able to do).

• Create another data base of Liquibase changelog: automatic data type conversion

  I need to convert the structure of PostgreSQL databases to Oracle. In PostgreSQL, I a postgres database.

  In Oracle, I have an empty database in which I want to write to postgres database in PostgreSQL.

  Actually, I didn't need the data, only the structure (relationships).

  For this, I use Liquibase. I get the changelog of PostgreSQL with the command:

  Liquibase.

  -driver = org.postgresql.Driver.

  --classpath="C:\db_drivers\postgresql-9.3-1102.jdbc3.jar------.

  --changeLogFile="./postgresql_changelog.Xml------.

  -url = "" jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432 / postgres "\"

  -username = schema_name_here.

  -password = *.

  -logLevel = debug.

  -defaultSchemaName = Ms.

  generateChangeLog

  After that, I try to create objects in the Oracle database:

  
  

  Liquibase

  -driver oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver =

  --classpath="C:\db_drivers\ojdbc14.jar".

  --changeLogFile="./postgresql_changelog.xml".

  --URL="JDBC:Oracle:thin:@ip_here:orabeta".

  -username = *.

  -password = *.

  Update

  Does not work: ORA-00902

  Here is a fragment of postgresql_changelog.xml:

  ...

  < changeSet author = '(generated) Alexey' id = "1409146335011-53" >

  < create table tableName = "TABLE1A" >

  < column name = "total_pk" type = 'INT8' >

  < forced nullable = "false" / >

  < / column >

  < column name = "form_fk" type = 'INT8' >

  < forced nullable = "false" / >

  < / column >

  ...

  I also generate a pure SQL file:

  
  

  Liquibase

  -driver oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver =

  --classpath="C:\db_drivers\ojdbc14.jar".

  --changeLogFile="./postgresql_changelog.xml".

  --URL="JDBC:Oracle:thin:@ip_here:orabeta".

  -username = *.

  -password = *.

  updateSQL > update.sql

  Here is a fragment of update.sql:

  
  

  ...

  CREATE THE TABLE SCHEMA_HERE. TABLE1A (total_pk form_fk INT8 INT8 NOT NULL,.. .etc);

  INSERT INTO SCHEMA_HERE. TABLE1A (ID, $form_id,... etc.)

  ...

  I want to generate the file, in which all the data types correspond to the target database, that is to say I want to create. I can write a simple parser that replace the data types, but this isn't the right solution - can be a lot of data.

  It is possible to get changelog from a database and update another database on a different server this changelog RDBMS? I need to get the automatic and Automatic data type conversion generate XML data / SQL output with the data types of target database.

  Or maybe there is an option to generate output data types with "abstract"? That is to say with data types that are not in the actual databases, for example, instead of INT8 - whole, etc.

  I would be very grateful for the information. Thank you all.

• Problems with the Long data type conversion

  With the help of Oracle 11 G.
  
  I have a vision where one of the name of the column is of type long, I need to convert in varchar2. I tried using the to_Lob() function, but this error:
  
  ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected - got LONG
  
  I followed this article (step 1), which suggests to use to_lob()
  
  My query is:
  

  select
  item1, -- this is of type LONG
  item_vat, 
  price_pc_tot,
  from xd_item_price_view 

  I tried to convert it into:
  

  select
  to_lob(item1) as item1_x, -- this is of type LONG
  item_vat, 
  price_pc_tot,
  from xd_item_price_view 

  I am confused about the "-", why he would expect that? Thanks for watching it.

  >
  Sorry mate, just realized that. Yep, this is the one I followed (step 1 using to_lob())

• DATE in TIMESTAMP data type conversion

  Hello
  
  My question is this:
  
  1. I have a variable of type DATE, which I attribute the value of SYSDATE

   mydatevar DATE:= SYSDATE;

  2. I want to find * «today» *, truncated to DATE

    TRUNC (mydatevar, 'DD')

  TRUNC function returns the DATE data type. So I get to the point for example 2 *'2010-01-13 00:00:00 ' *.
  
  3. I want to assign the value of the point 2, to a variable of type TIMESTAMP

    mytimestampvar TIMESTAMP := mydatevar;

  implicitly that will convert the variable DATE to TIMESTAMP.

  Question: How can I convert a DATE to TIMESTAMP keeping the hours and minutes zeros?
  
  Why I need this conversion: I have a table with one "column1" TIMESTAMP column (0) and I take only the rows of the table, where 'column1' is in the range of today 12:00 in the morning until now (what time it is).

  I don't think you lose necessarily any information whatsoever. It is probably more a function of your NLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT and NLS_DATE_FORMAT. For example, your NLS_DATE_FORMAT could be default setup for a HH24 (24 hours) which would report to midnight as hours of "00". However, it seems that your NLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT is configured with "HH" format with a Meridian indicator that means 12 hours time.

  Your comparisons should use date/timestamp data types anyway, so as long as the input value is correctly converted to date type that shouldn't matter in any case.

  You can see what is actually stored by using the DUMP function:

  SQL> SELECT  DUMP(TO_TIMESTAMP(TO_CHAR(TRUNC(SYSDATE,'DD'),'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM'))) AS TSTAMP
    2  ,       DUMP(TRUNC(SYSDATE,'DD')) AS DT
    3  FROM DUAL
    4  /
  
  TSTAMP                                                                      DT
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------
  Typ=187 Len=20: 218,7,1,13,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,0,0,0,0,0                  Typ=13 Len=8: 218,7,1,13,0,0,0,0
  

  As you can see the TSTAMP and DT store almost the same values (218,7,1,13), but the TSTAMP has more precision because of fractions of a second.

  HTH!

  Lol DATEs in Oracle always include year, month, day, hours, minutes, and seconds. There is no way to get a DATE without each of them.

  You may want to store this data in an INTERVAL column, not a DATE.
  Depending on how you plan to use, a NUMBER might work, too (for example, the number of minutes after midnight) or a VARCHAR2, such as ' 09: 53:32'.
  If you really need to use a DATE for any reason, you may simply ignore the year, month and day or put always a default value, such as 1 January 0001.

  What is the problem you're trying to solve? If you explain what you need to do, then someone can help you find a good way to do it.

  http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/E11882_01/server.112/e17118/functions119.htm#SQLRF00684

  If expr1 is character data, then Oracle Database converts expr2 to the data type of expr1
  before comparing them and returns VARCHAR2 in the character set of expr1.
