• Problem with the CLOB data type.

  Greetings,
  
  I am facing a problem with the CLOB data type. I know that the CLOB data type is 4 GB (I use Oracle 9i). But in the Pl Sql procedure, I can only store 34305 size for a CLOB variable character data.
  
  This is the test script that I am trying to run.
  
  DECLARE
  -Local variables here*.
  I have INTEGER;
  C_1 CLOB.
  BEGIN
  FOR Rec IN (SELECT
  *
  ACCORDING TO THE TABLE)
  LOOP
  C_1: = c_1 | Rec.Clo_1;
  END LOOP;
  EXCEPTION
  WHILE OTHERS THEN
  Dbms_Output.put_line (SQLERRM);
  END;
  
  
  Here variable C_1 range value 34305 good character regardless of type CLOB. Now the above script fails if query my buckle - huge number of return values. It is throwing the exception "error during transfer of files ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital error or value."
  
  He would be grateful if someone can help me on this.
  
  Thank you.

  You are probably better off using DBMS_LOB.append, instead of the concatenation of varchar2 (|).

• convert the money data type in a decimal format 2.

  What is the best way to convert the money data type in a decimal 2 format in ms sql 2005 for use in my applications.

  This?

  CAST (tr.depositReceivedAmount AS decimal (10, 2))

  I respectfully disagree with the idea that you must change the query column a type of 'money' data to something else.

  In most database servers, "«argent» Silver" is a data type that is designed to provide a very homogeneous behaviour with regard to the arithmetic accuracy.  In Microsoft Access, the representation is a the whole scale.  MS SQL Server, it is obviously similar.  Ditto Oracle and others.

  You like that the money data type in the database for this clarification, because "hell has no fury like an accountant looking for a bad penny."   The column of database storage formats are designed to satisfy the accountants, and it's a good thing.

  Meanwhile, you also want to take care as to exactly how you are dealing with values.  There are several points where the district could take place.  You don't have available the strongest possible manipulation of the floating of the data types in ColdFusion.  You also are somewhat at the mercy of any interface software can be between you and that SQL server, you can use.  "It is correct to all about values , but not several times."

  I suggest to round the value just before the display and user input must be two decimals.

  Then, you may need to do some things at the end of SQL server.  For example, when you update a value in the table, you may need to use logical server to explicitly truncate the value to two decimal places, as well as an update of "$ 34,56" explicitly updates the column "$34,5600.."  (This kind of thing should happen in the context of SQL Server).  You know that the user entry has exactly two significant digits, but maybe (maybe not...)! SQL server may not know this.  You want to ensure that the stored server internally represents exactly two digits, when the origin of a user input value.

  Do not err on the side of "convenience" or "which seems." good on the screen  (If you do, get ready get telephone communications of the accountants, always at inappropriate times of the night.)

• 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())
  >
  It's a case of 'use' along in a query or search.

  But you can use to_lob as part of creating a new table.

• Data problem whith model number data type

  Hi all

  Here's a strange thing with the data model of the Editor (Oracle Business Intelligence 11.1.1.7.0 / windows 7 / Firefox).

  Create a data set of sql query with this statement "select 1.23 double." The data type of the column is whole and cannot be changed.

  So I use the cast function "select cast (1.23 v number (16.2)) double ' and now it's OK the data type is double.

  Now add a second line, change the statement like this:

  Select cast (1.23 v number (16.2)) double

  Union of all the

  Select cast (4.56 v number (16.2)) double

  If you save the template, and charge it, the type of data has changed in full!

  Anyone know why this is happening?

  The patch should be applied, but is a temporary solution:

  Select cast (d.v number (12,2)) v

  de)

  Select v 1.23 double

  Union of all the

  Select 2.34 double v

  ) d

  It does not make sense to try to build a literal string that represents the binary data in a GIF file and that insert a BLOB using an INSERT... Statement of VALUES.

  You can use the first approach (dbms_lob.loadfromfile) to load a GIF file (or any file) into a BLOB.
  If the image you are trying to load is not a file on the filesystem of database, you can use SQL * Loader on the client machine to load the data, or you can write an application in any language you want that reads the data from the file and inserts it into the BLOB by using the API in your language / framework. You have not told us what language and framework you use, but it shouldn't be too hard to find a suitable example. For example, if you use Java and JDBC, here is an example of loading a GIF in a table.

• Problem with the percentage data type

  Hello
  
  I understand that if a member account data type is percentage, then the corresponding value in the form of data is displayed as a percentage. For example, if I need to get 50% against the particular account member, then I can type either 0.5 or 50%. But is there the parameters by which if I hit 50, system will consider as 50%, not 5 000%.
  
  Thank you.

  You can type either 0.5 or 50%

• How to handle the data type DECIMAL MySQL converted to DOUBLE in OBIEE 10 gR 3?

  Hi all
  
  I have a problem in OBIEE 10g to I use the MySQL database as datasource direct to the server of the OBI and I have a column in a MySQL table which was designed as the DECIMAL data type (18.0).
  This column is used to measure a length, and values are included in seconds (without decimals), in the form as:
  "1200"
  in the MySQL database.
  
  After the import of the MySQL table associated with the repository of the OBI, the OBIEE converts the DECIMAL data type column to the DOUBLE PRECISION data type automatically.
  
  My goal is to reach the values in this form, certainly in the sense of the term (not at the time!):
  hh mm ss
  
  In order to accomplish, I tried to change the format of column with the ROUND function:
  ROUND (db.table.column / * 3600 * 2)
  
  The problem is that it doesn't work well if values can be divided with no rest for example
  original value: 7200
  new value (ROUND): 2
  
  In the case of my example:
  original value: 1200
  new value (ROUND): 0
  It's false, because 1200 seconds are not equal to 0 hours, I want to see two hours of _0.33333_ OR I much prefer more _0 hour 20 m_
  
  Anyone have any ideas?
  I tried to make a view of database and importing that type of CHAR data in the database, but is not the solution too, because if I filter BI app or try to make a SUM the BI would drop errors...
  
  Kind regards
  Laszlo

• For the complex data type, how to generate the Dll with compatible interface to C/C++

  Hello

  I used the Labview FPGA module to develop test equipment. Now, I need to write a driver that is to be a Dll with compatible interface to C/C++ for this equipment. So that my client who is familiar with C/C++ can call the driver without any study on labview. But I had a few problem on how to convert labview for C/C++ data complex data type. To clearly explain to my question, I have attached a simple example. (see attachment) I try to generate a Dll for the attached example VI and get the the function prototype at the head of the files as below:

  ' void OpenFpgaReference (LStrHandle * RIODevice, TD1 * errorIn, LVRefNum * FPGAVIReferenceOut, TD1 * errorOut).

  As you have known, the type of data "LStrHandle * RIODevice" and "LVRefNum * FPGAVIReferenceOut" Labview data format are. C/C++ do not have this kind of data type and can not reconige it. As a result, I can't call the Dll of C/C++ programming language. How to convert these two data type of labview for the C/C++ compatible data format, and then build the Dll? Anyone know about this?

  The answer is really apprecaited! Thank you in advanced.

  As I found in the following article:

  http://digital.NI.com/public.nsf/WebSearch/FB001AA027C8998386256AAD006C142D?OpenDocument

  LVRefNum is the name of resource of LabVIEW VISA or refnum, and "it is impossible to convert LabVIEW VISA name of resource or refnum VISession valid ID."
  This means that external code modules can not access & control the session VISA which is open by labview. But for my purposes, I will not attempt to access this VISA extenal code(C/C++) session. I just hope that save this session VISA in the external code once I opened it in Labview dll; and pass it to the labview dll when needed. While I have not need to login again when I need to control the device. Is it possible to do?

  A LVRefNum is really just a single int32 value. Its meaning is useless for other environments than those who created it so that you Michael not any what in C/C++ caller but pass it back to other functions in your DLL, but this often isn't a problem at all.

  You can take the following statement of the LabVIEW extcode.h headers and add them to your delabviewed header files to make it work in such a way.

  #define Private (T) typedef struct T # _t {void * p ;} * T}

  Private (LVRefNum);

  The LStrHandle you must set a standard C string instead in your export DLL and document what is the size of the string buffer should have if it is an output parameter.

  TD1 error clusters should also be divided into their parameters (C compatible) separate for all items or just to the left of suite entirely.

• Subtype and data types

  Hi all
  
  We can overload subprogrammes that setting differ in the number, order, and type of family data. But impossible to overload if the parameter differs only in the void type.
  
  If I see the standard package, I get
  subtype types BINARY_FLOAT is NUMBER;
  subtype BINARY_DOUBLE is NUMBER;
  
  But I am able to overload the two procedures, we have a parameter types binary_float and binary_double other. They are of subtype of the same data type. that is the number. So, how is it possible. Also, most of the subtypes have no difference. So, why are there these number of subtypes? Oracle defines subtypes as data type with some sort of constraint on the base data type, but is valid for all? for example, smallint, and decimal.
  
  type of NUMBER is NUMBER_BASE;
  subtype of FLOAT is NUMBER;
  ACTUAL subtype is FLOAT;
  subtype 'DOUBLE PRECISION' is FLOAT;
  INTEGER subtype is NUMBER (38.0).
  subtype INT is INTEGER;
  subtype SMALLINT is NUMBER (38.0).
  DECIMAL subtype is NUMBER (38.0).
  DIGITAL subtype is DECIMAL;
  DEC subtype is DECIMAL;
