How to add constraints not null in sql modeling data and rename the default constraint name that is getting generated when marking column as required.

You can edit the template for the names of constraint not Null under properties-> setting->-> models naming standards. Change one marked 'not forced Null. Then, under preferences-> Data Modeler-> DDL, you must uncheck "generate short form constraint NOT NULL".

How to add the not null columns to an existing table?
I have a table with hundreds of row inside. I try to add a new column not null. It gives me the following error

ALTER TABLE sys.xyz CHANGE xyz_no number 4 DEFAULT '1' NOT NULL;

ORA-02296: impossible to activate (sys.) - found null values

Also I tried to do the following

ALTER TABLE sys.xyz CHANGE xyz_no number 4 DEFAULT '1';

And then I tried to ALTER TABLE sys.xyz CHANGE xyz_NO number 4 NOT NULL; and I still gives me the same error. I took the tally for null values for the same column and has 1555.

In this case how can I change my article with not null not?. Please help, I am a newbie in oracle.
I cry out to you for creating a table as SYS. However, I'm going to fully support Sybrand making. Never, ever, create any object as SYS unless the source code received you from Oracle in a patch.

Now to your question.

Please let me know how I can add a new column with a constraint not null, table already has data, without falling off the table... Please help me on this issue...

Hello
I have an emp_job_det with a, b, c columns table. Note that this TABLE ALREADY has DATA OF THESE COLUMNS
IAM now add a new column "D" with forced not null
Fistly I alter the table by adding the single column "D", if I do, the entire column would be created with alll of nulls for the column DEFAULT D
ALTER table emp_job_det Add number D; -do note not null CONSTRAINT is not added
Second... If I try to add the constraint not null, get an eoor as already conatained null values...
(GOLD)
In other words, if I put the query
ALTER table emp_job_det Add number D NOT NULL; -THROWS ERROR AS TABLE ALREADY CONTAINS DATA
So my question is how how can I add a new column with a constraint not null, table already has the data, without falling off the table
Please help me on this issue...

Add the column without constraint, then fill the column. Once all the rows in the table are given in the new column, and then add the constraint not null.

Add the constraint not NULL in the existing table that has null values

Hello
I want to add a constraint not null to and an existing table, but the table already contains values null in this column.
EMP
Emp_id name
1 axada
2
3 sdkdd
Here is already the data IE 2 empid is Null as name. I must add a fool of constraint not null which new values will not be null, but I don't want to change the data of exisitng alreadt which is null.

Hello

"The opposite": NOVALIDATE does not validate the data that is ALREADY in the table, but do not allow the insertion of a NULL value.

Have you tried my sample code?

CREATE TABLE MaTable (x NUMBER PRIMARY KEY, y NUMBER);

INSERT INTO myTable VALUES (1, 123);

INSERT INTO myTable VALUES ( 2, NULL );

INSERT INTO myTable VALUES (3, 456);

ALTER TABLE mytable MODIFY (y NOT NULL NOVALIDATE );

INSERT INTO myTable VALUES (4, 678);

INSERT INTO myTable VALUES ( 5, NULL );

SELECT * FROM MyTable;

'2' line was inserted with null before the creation of the NOT NULL constraint, this line remains "as what" at the end of the trial.

'5' line trying to insert a NULL value after creating the NOT NULL constraint, which is denied.

Constraint not null in several columns

My requirement is that I want to have a constraint not null on all 3 columns by name.
Something like
change table employee modify NVL (name, NVL (MIDDLE_NAME LAST_NAME)) not null;
How can I achieve this?

modify used table add constraint emp_ck01 check (coalesce (first_name, middle_name, last_name) is not null);

I wasn't expecting to see because the doc said about scan limited index full "...". and at least one column in the index key has the NOT NULL constraint,"which would be foolish to say if the rowid was what filled that. There are currently only 2 factory codes and code 1 company (not nulls - Oracle does know that?), so I was kind of expected Oracle to reorder the predicates with an index skip scan. Take a fresh look on the doc, I wonder if I should not specify the company code in the query and maybe spend employee and job_number in the index. I hope it's obvious that this index has been added for other queries. This request could be taken out a change in the requirements of anyway, but I don't know when.

Joel,

I just had this 'already seen' (new) sense to speak of it.

Mentioning the reference 11.1 gave you:
This so obviously must be bad that I couldn't decide if I was proven wrong or was amazed to find that I couldn't he show the falsity. (Just because something is obvious, it does not mean it is true – Terry Pratchett.)

However, here is the obvious counter-example - that I came across 8.1.7.4 because it's the oldest version of Oracle that I have now:
```
create table t1
as
select
     rownum               id1,
     rownum               id2,
     rownum               id3,
     lpad(rownum,10,'0')     small_vc,
     rpad('x',100)          padding
from
     all_objects
where
     rownum <= 10000
;

create index t1_i1 on t1(id1, id2, id3);

begin
     dbms_stats.gather_table_stats(
          ownname           => user,
          tabname           =>'T1',
          cascade           => true

     );
end;
/

set autotrace traceonly explain

select
     /*+ index_ffs(t1) */
     id1, id3
from
     t1
where
     id2 = 99
;
```
No 'NOT NULL columns". But any line I will have a (non-null) value for id2, then it should be in the index - then Oracle should be able to do a full scan and get the right answer. Here is the map (I have no need of Council - but your configuration may be different):
```
Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
   0      SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer=ALL_ROWS (Cost=4 Card=1 Bytes=12)
   1    0   INDEX (FAST FULL SCAN) OF 'T1_I1' (NON-UNIQUE) (Cost=4 Card=1 Bytes=12)
```
If you change the predicate to: "id2 is zero", then the only legal path is an analysis.

How to name a NOT NULL Constraint
Hi all

is there a way to Data Modeler SQL Developer to name a NULL value constraint is NOT?
For example, in the plain Oracle DDL I can:

create table x)
Number of y constraint x_y_nn not null
);

Thank you

Hi Michael,

You can set constraint information not null in physical model - tab dedicated in the dialog column to the physical model.

Is there a way to distinguish constraint not null null, out-of-line one online?

Dear maters,
Could you please help me to answer the question: How can we distinguish non-null online constraints (non-null column option) not null out-of-line ones (constraints, defined at the table level)? Below is an example of what I mean.
1. Create a table.
  CREATE TABLE TEST (ID NUMBER NOT NULL);
At this point, we have created a table with the constraint. The constraint was automatically created because of the option ' not null ' in the column definition. Say that the constraint name is SYS_C00699573. We can get the information about this user/all/dba_constraint or user/all/dba_cons_columns views.
1. ALTER table.
  ALTER TABLE TEST ADD CHECK ('ID' IS NOT NULL).
Here, we have created the second constraint as well. Say his name is SYS_C00699574. The only difference between them is that the first is online, and the second constraint is not. Is not only the terminology: If you file online - the 'NOT NULL' option also expires the DDL of the table. This is serious: for example, optimizer Oracle does not the id as nullable column either. If you drop the second - nothing like that happens. Oracle therefore somehow difference between online and offline constraints.
1. Drop out-of-line constraint. At this point the question arises: How can we distinguish who among the two constraints is online and who isn't? From dba_constraint/all/user or user/all/dba_cons_columns views constraints search exactly except their names.
Does anyone have an idea? Any help is very appreciated.
Thank you.

If you go here:

SELECT * FROM SYS. CDEF$ WHERE OBJ #= you_table_object_id

You can see the TYPE # is different, one is 7 (non-null) is 1 (check).

ALTER Table Add column not null, no default
I want to add two columns in a table with not null, and the default value 0 for two columns
Can I write everything in a single statement or do I have to divide the declaration
I tried, but didn't work

ALTER table DWSODS01. DWT00301_ORD_DTL_OMS add)
COMB_ORD_FLG NUMBER (5.0) default null, 0
COMB_ORD_NO NUMBER (12.0)
by default, 0 not null);

How can I change the code?
user10390682 wrote:
OK, so if it is NOT NULL, while there should be a value.

Yes.

So, when I set these two columns as NOT NULL will only future data must be NON NULL.
What of the old and present data if I defined as NOT NULL

NOT NULL mean value of eachcolumn + line (current or future) _ must not be null. That's why always adding NOT NULL column to a non-empty table fails - the column value for existing lines will be NULL which does NOT violate the constraint nullability. If you add the NON NULL column with a default value, the column will be added and all lines existing column value will be defined by specified default (0 in your case). As a result Oracle will be able to settle forced to null for this newly added column from the value of this column in all the existing lines will be not not null (0 in your case).

Update on nulls in the column vs add column not null default 11 g
Hello

Let's take a scenario following 1. *

We have a large partitioned table LARGE_TABLE1 (say: NUM_ROWS 5 904 977 029, size GB 326) in the Oracle 11 database.

We want to add a new column NEW_COLUMN (NUMBER) and give a value of-999 to NEW_COLUMN each record in this table.
```
ALTER TABLE LARGE_TABLE1 ADD (NEW_COLUMN NUMBER DEFAULT -999 NOT NULL);
```
In Oracle 11 it would probably a second since the value of default -999 would be permanently added in metadata without updating each and every record 6 bln.

Take a scenario 2 *

We have another large partitioned table LARGE_TABLE2 (of similar size as LARGE_TABLE1) in the Oracle 11 database.

We have an existing EXISTING_COLUMN (NUMBER) column that contains nulls 90% (90% of scores only contain null values in the field, and 10% of the scores only contain non-null values in this field)

I would like to replace null values in EXISTING_COLUMN with number - 999.

Update the column full Ascension not going :-) and doing so in a loop (the partition partition) would take a few days.

Question:
Do you know a way somehow write this -999 "overall" in the metadata as in scenario 1 instead of updating a null value in all the records to-999? No clever workaround solution would be appreciated...

Edited by: SwPiotr 2012-04-24 07:26
```
ALTER TABLE LARGE_TABLE1 ADD NEW_COLUMN NUMBER GENERATED ALWAYS AS nvl(col1, -999);
```

What is the solution to add is not null to an existing table that has the data

Create a new column that can contain NULL.
New column UPDATED with the old data
remove the old column
Rename new old column_name column

How to add constraints of layout in CSS?
Is there a way to specify constraints of layout in CSS? For example how can I specify that the first column in a GridPane should be aligned to the right? This can be done programmatically by adding a column to a GridPane constraint, as here:
```
GridPane gridpane = new GridPane();
ColumnConstraints column = new ColumnConstraints();
column.setHalignment(HPos.RIGHT);
gridpane.getColumnConstraints().add(column);
```
As I understand it is not supported in CSS. In general the dimensions and layout is not included in JFX CSS by design:

JavaFX CSS does not support the properties of CSS layout such as float, position, overflow and width. However, filling properties and CSS margins are supported on some objects in JavaFX scene graph. All other aspects of the layout are managed by program in the JavaFX code.

It's: http://download.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/api/javafx/scene/doc-files/cssref.html

It kinda limits sometimes because they are often strongly linked. I guess it was a decision around separation of concerns - I'm not sure but if it is a good idea or not.

[url http://download.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/api/javafx/fxml/doc-files/introduction_to_fxml.html] FXML is worth the trip to to make the layouts as scripts, programmers not Java that can work with. It does not solve the issue of 'style' but could go some way to help you.

See you soon,.

How to add do not read the option of the content inside the file adapter (playback synchronization) file
Hello

Is it possible, that I can jump to read the contents of the file within the file with the synchronous read operation adapter (I just want to read the file name and directory, and if the file name matches the input variables, then I remove the files, for this I am on FA with synch read operation) everything goes well as deletion but it reads the contents of the file and store it in the DB, I don't want).
This will solve your problem.
