• long data type

  If USER_CONSTRAINTS. SEARCH_CONDITION is the LONG data type,
  How can filter us "NOT NULL" LINES in a SELECT Clause where:
  
  Select constraint_name
  of user_contraints
  where search_condition not like '% NO NLL %'
  
  
  Any ideas are appreciated! Thank you!

  Unfortunately you can not do this,

  The use of LONG values is subject to these restrictions:

  A table can have only one column.

  You cannot create an object with a long attribute type

  LONG columns may not appear in the WHERE clause or in integrity constraints (except that they may appear in null and NOT NULL value constraints).

  LONG columns cannot be indexed.

  Cannot specify LONG data in regular expressions.

  A stored function cannot return a value of type LONG.

  You can declare a variable or argument to a PL/SQL program unit using the long data type However, you cannot call then the SQL program unit.

  Within a single SQL statement, all the columns LONG, updated tables and locked tables must reside on the same database.

  LONG and LONG RAW columns cannot be used in distributed SQL queries and cannot be replicated.

  If a table has columns ALONG both LOB, then you can not bind more than 4000 bytes of data to the two LONG and LOB columns in the same SQL statement. However, you can bind more than 4000 bytes of data in the long RUN or the LOB column.

  Based on your post there is an error in you initdg4msl.ora file... Make sure you the database connection is correct and you add the statement two to the file

  for example

  Should be: HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = YOURSQLSERVER / / YOUR DATABASE

  Make sure that you add the following code in the same file (see page 92):
  HS_NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS = CHAR
  HS_FDS_CHARACTER_SEMANTICS = TRUE
  HS_KEEP_REMOTE_COLUMN_SIZE = ALL

  If Oracle is recommended for several years do not use the data type LONG on the user objects, there is still little for dictionaries of Oracle tables.
  However, you should not touch.
  With respect to users within LONG data type, it is yours and tests the results depending on whether you can switch the type of LOB data or not and probably submit to be approved and taken in charge by the provider of your application.

• Using DBMS_DATAPUMP with the LONG data type

  I have a procedure below that calls the DBMS_DATAPUMP procedure using a REMOTE_LINK move a schema of one database to another. However, some tables in this schema have columns with the data type of LONG. And when I run it I get an error saying that you cannot move the data with the LONG data type using a REMOTE CONNECTION. So no data in these specific tables gets flying over.
  
  Does anyone else have this problem? If so, do you have a work around? I tried to add a CLOB column in my table and affecting the new CLOB equal THROUGHOUT, but I couldn't get that to not work either... even when I tried to use a TO_LOB. If I could get that pass, then I could just slide ALONG, the schema, and then re-create the LONG column on the opposite side.

• Impact on performance when you use the LONG data type

  Hi all
  
  
  Only I have a doubt about the use of LONG data type
  
  I use the data type LONG for some columns in a table and I created indexes on the columns separately, but these column values can be easily fit into the varchar data type.
  
  (Just to see the performance on this issue)
  
  Suppose that a common select query with WHERE condition on any of the column which has LONG data type will affect the performance of the query?
  
  Please explain.
  
  Thank you

  (1) the LONG (and LONG RAW) data types have been depricated for quite a while. Oracle has been strongly recommends that you move to 8.1.5 CLOB and BLOB data types. Why you use the LONG data type? You're still on Oracle 7?

  (2) have you tried to write a query that has a WHERE condition that refers to a LONG column? In general, you can not because it does not support the type of data LONG. For example

  SQL> ed
  Wrote file afiedt.buf
  
    1  create table a (
    2    col1 varchar2(30),
    3    col2 long
    4* )
  SQL> /
  
  Table created.
  
  SQL> select * from a where col2='abc';
  select * from a where col2='abc'
                        *
  ERROR at line 1:
  ORA-00997: illegal use of LONG datatype
  

  LONG data types are a royal pain to work with. They also have implications on the performance of wicked on the client.

• long data type in where clause

  Hello
  
  I need to select in an Oracle table with a column having
  Long data type and Oracle does not use this column in the

  Anyone know any work around for this problem?
  
  What is the way to see the value of long data type?

  Published by: vikrant dixit on November 23, 2008 22:47

  So can OK we use CLOB/BLOB in where clause?

  Yes, you can query the LOB columns using the package (F.ex.SUBSTR or INSTR) DBMS_LOB functions.

  Why u say that the result is FTS?

  This would result in FTS as you cannot index LARGE data or create a function based on the column index.

  http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/sql_elements001.htm#sthref149

  
  LONG columns cannot be indexed.
  

  No other way to my knowledge.

  You can convert the LOB column with function TO_LOB as described in

  How to get there?

  I'm looking to create a table based on another table that having the column long data type.

  You really don't want to do that.

  LONG data type has been deprecated for some time now, use CLOB.

  The TO_LOB() function will do the conversion on the fly:

  create table abc_long_dummy
  as
  select ag
       , to_lob(bgd) as bgd

  Please resolve.

  HIGH_VALUE datatype is LONG. You may not use for a long TIME in WHERE clause expressions. You need to loop through the partitions by selecting HIGH_VALUE and then comparing. Secondly, there is no need to select double to calculate expressions. For example:

  Select to_char (add_months (trunc (sysdate, 'MM'),-1), 'YYYYMM') | ' 00' in the double last_mnth_var;

  should be replaced by

  last_mnth_var: = to_char (add_months (trunc (sysdate, 'MM'),-1), 'YYYYMM') | ' 00'.

  and there is no need to add_months here:

  last_mnth_var: = to_char (trunc (sysdate, 'MM') - 1, "YYYYMM"). ' 00'.

  But the main question is simply ALTER TABLE MODIFY PARTITION COMPRESS allows compression but does not compress. You must issue ALTER TABLE MOVE PARTITION COMPRESS:

  SQL > create table tbl (n) partition by range (n)
  2 (partition p1 values less than (maxvalue))
