Multicolumn update trigger

Hello

I want to have a track history of any data that has already been updated in a table. Say that table1 has 100 columns and to store historical data on change, I did another table track_table1 with columns: updated_column_name, old_data, you see, mod_time.

For this history of data storage, I need to write a trigger in which I will identify all columns whose value update and insert the name and column values in the track_table1 table.

What I'm doing now is to check each of the 100 new and old value column inside the trigger to know what columns have been updated. This increases the code and oracle must also check the values of each column 100 to find out if it is updated.

Is there a way where oracle itself can give a list of columns that have values updated by the update? While there is no need to check the values old and new in each column of the table.

I am using oracle 9i and 10 g databases.

-----------------------------------
Thank you very much in advance,
Kawa

If the update (')
end if;

Issue of doc!

But I know that nobody here ever reads documentation. That requires an effort!

  • with clause multicolumn UPDATE

    is it possible to use an existing query written with the clause as the source for the multicolumn UPDATE statement? I have:
    with x as ( rowid as rid, ... ), y as ( ... ), z as ( ... )
    select x.rid, x.a ... z.a .. z.z
    from x join y on x.a = y.a and .. x.z = y.z
         y left join z on y.a = z.a and .. y.z = z.z
    I would like to have:
    update BIG_X
    set ( a, b, .... z ) =
    select [ appropriate columns from above with ] from ( [ here comes above with statement ] ) small_x
    where BIG_X.rowid = small_x.rid
    but it does not work. I found a few examples of single column updated, but is it possible to make the multicolumn update without using the MERGE statement (which does not use WITH as subquery source)?

  • Table is the mutation of error in after the update trigger

    Hello

    In all of my table, I have columns EDITDATE and EDITUSER. So whenever a table is updated I need to update these two fields with the USER and SYSDATE. For this I use a BEFORE UPDATE trigger. This trigger is activated, but I get "ORA-04091: table %s.%s is changing, function of triggering/can not see" error every time I update the table. I used this method in SQL Server. I understand that Oracle doesn't have to be the same as SQL Server but I do not know there is a way to do this. Do you know what it is?

    EDIT: Here is the Code of the trigger

    create or replace
    TR_LEGISLATION_CALCUL_AE RELAXATION
    BEFORE THE UPDATE
    ON LEGISLATION_CALCUL
    FOR EACH LINE
    DECLARE
    v_LEGISLATIONCALCULID NUMBER (10,0);

    just put this in your before update (and not after the update as you mentioned) for each trigger line:

  • After that insert update trigger does not work properly

    Hello experts!

    I created an insert/update trigger after and what strikes me is that it does not work as expected.
    The trigger starts a procedure that performs an insert in a second case of changing values table triggered table ("my_table").

    The problem is that in my second table values, which are correlated to the "my_table", are not changed by the correct values immediately. The trails of the trigger and insert!

    I need to update two times to values appear in my second table. Then only the data of the first update will be inserted in the second recital to table the table parent ("my_table") held the most recent values.

    Do you have an idea what could be the problem?

    Remove the pragma autonomous_transaction and validation of your relaxation. This might be the reason. The transaction autonoumous cant properly consider the values of the current transaction (which is not engaged yet).

    This is not logically (if the upgrade fails or is rolled at the time you do not want the inserted row).

    If you then get a problem because the mutation of tables, you will need a different solution: an autonoumous transaction is not the right solution to workaround.

    So why not do as others have already suggested. Govern this value in your original trigger (without update part) for all new lines if you wish.

    When: new.expirydate< date="" '2015-06-01'="" then="" :new.renewal="" :="date">

    If the old lines need fixing, and then with a single update statement.

    update drivers set = renewal date ' 01-07-2017' where had< date="">


    After that, you should have no record of drivers with dates of renewal except July 1, 2017 when displayed<>

  • UPDATE to update trigger another table

    I am trying to write a trigger to the table (AFTER UPDATE) in which I want to update the same table in a different pattern. Notice that both tables has no unique or primary key constraint, so I am forced to compare the values in the column all the to the place where the condition.

    Update OTHERSCHEMA. T1

    the value =:NEW.c1 c1, c2 is:NEW.c2...

    where c1 =:OLD.c1

    AND c2 =:OLD.c2

    Problem is when a column is null, it would seem that it is not comparable. I even tried

    Naturally.  NVL (x, NULL) is always x, no matter what x is.

    Can someone help me to write the correct statement?

    x = is returns TRUE if (and only if) x and have the same value, and it returns FALSE if (and only if) x and have 2 different values.

    NULL is not a value; in fact, it's quite the opposite.  NULL means that there is no value.  If x or is NULL, then x = y returns UNKNOWN.

    DECODE allows to compare values or NULL values, so you can do something like

    Update OTHERSCHEMA. T1

    the value of c1 =: NEW.c1

    , c2 =: NEW.c2

    ,       ...

    where LESS (DECODE (c1,:OLD.c1, 1, 0)

    , DECODE (c2,:OLD.c2, 1, 0)

    )

    ;

    If you would care to a full test script so that I can reproduce the problem, then I could test this.

    Triggers often indicate a bad table design.  Why do you need to replicate the data in another table?

    As you do, why not add a primary key?

    Do you see an UPDATE statement in the code example I provided?

    The trigger is already PART of a statement to upate. When the trigger is activated, you are ALREADY updated in the table.

  • BEFORE the UPDATE trigger between field in both tables

    Hi Oracle Experts,

    I'm a newbie in the triggers. I want to do a trigger that fires whenever changes are made to a table, updates a field in the second table. The details are as below:

     SAMPLE (
    SAMPLEID    NUMBER(10,0)
    ACTIVITYID     NUMBER(10,0)
    ACTIVITYTABLEID     VARCHAR2(20 BYTE)
    SAMPLEDT     DATE

    )
    

    SAMPLE_RESULT(
    SAMPLEID     NUMBER(10,0)
    TESTID     VARCHAR2(20 BYTE)
    PROPERTYID     VARCHAR2(20 BYTE)
    TESTERID     VARCHAR2(20 BYTE)
    ENTRYDT     DATE
    RESULTNUM     NUMBER(18,8)
    RESULT     VARCHAR2(20 BYTE)
    RESULTTYPE     VARCHAR(1 BYTE)
    RESULTSTATUS     VARCHAR2(1 BYTE)
    )
    

    The idea of relaxation:

    CREATE OR REPLACE
    TRIGGER "DBA".AUTO_NOTIFY
    BEFORE UPDATE OF RESULT ON SAMPLE_RESULT
    FOR EACH ROW
    WHEN (NEW.PROPERTYID = 'Action Taken')
    BEGIN

    //but i don't know how to make a reference to another table
    
    END;
    

    The trigger will fire every time the propertyid is pronounced, it sets the value of samplenotify in the example in table for the of '.

    Is this possible?

    Thank you in advance.

    La: new.column_name syntax applies only to the table that the trigger is on.  You will need to use an update on the other table.

  • BackingMap updates trigger EventListeners

    3.7 consistency, since in an EntryProcessor update another entry via map of support directly (on a partition level operation). This update will trigger the dumps and BackingMapListeners respectively for the other entry?

    I have a dumps that persists changes asynchronously, so wonder if direct changes to the map of support will be also persisted

    Thank you

    Hi David,

    Yes, the CacheStores and the BackingMapListeners fires with direct updates to a storage card.

    Although you have not asked about them, MapTriggers may or may not be fired depending on how the support plan is updated. If you get real support plan and do an update then the trigger does not fire unless you use the new 3.7 path of update of media by obtaining the entry of a key of the BackingMapContext and the appellant setValue during entry then the trigger fires.

    In a trigger on update, I want to use a condition IF referring to: old.return_dt. Something like:
    IF OLD.RETURN_DT <> '02-02-2222' THEN
    ...
    But I'm not sure what format: OLD. RETURN_DT will look like? In my condition IF will look like ' 02 - 02-2222' or ' 02 - FEB - 2222 "or 2 February 22"?

    If I use SQLPLUS and to_char the value of the column in my query, it looks like this:
    SQL> select to_char(return_dt) from scanner_assignment
      2  where serial_num='7408341021';
    
    TO_CHAR(R
    ---------
    02-FEB-22
    But it is an indication of how it will look when I talk about it in my IF condition? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    With Oracle characters between single quotes are STRINGS!
    "It's a chain, 2009-12-31, not a date'"
    When a DATE data type is desired, then use TO_DATE() function.

    When you use the function TO_CHAR() ALWAYS provide the format mask.
