Problem of splitting a string

• splits the string into documents

  Hello
  
  I did a query (see regexp) that split a string into records. The problem with the query is the separate in the subquery. Otherwise, it returns millions of records where I expect less than a thousand.
  Meanwhile, I found an other solution (see xmlsequence), but this statement returns the message "ORA-03113: end of file on the communication channel.
  
  Please advice.

• SQL / PLSQL to split the string into pieces

  Hi all
  
  I have a problem of data conversion from the name of one table to another structure.
  
  for example
  
  SQL > desc names
  Name Null? Type
  ----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
  TITLE VARCHAR2 (5)
  FNAME VARCHAR2 (20)
  LNAME VARCHAR2 (20)
  
  SQL > Data desc
  Name Null? Type
  ----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
  FULLNAME VARCHAR2 (50)
  
  
  Insert in data values ("SIR I HAVE ONE NAME PARTICULARLY LONG INDEED");
  Insert in the data values ("MINE IS EVEN MORE, ENOUGH RIDICULEMENT so IN FACT");
  
  Essentially, I need to divide these names long, stored in the 1 field, in the above 3 fields. The trickiest part is however I want to do it in such a way so that if the 1st part of the name fits the 1 5 char field I want to do, otherwise I would divide between 2 fields - once again without splitting a string. The reason behind this is that application will automatically put a space between each field when they appear and I would avoid gaps in the names if possible.
  
  This baffled me a little if any help would be seriously great... it might not even be a go-er, as it might be too uneconomic with the amount of available space, but I would give it a shot.
  
  Thank you!

  Use regular expressions:

  INSERT INTO names (title, fname, lname)

• Oracle regular expressions - splits the string into words for

  Hello

  Nice day!

  My requirement is to split the string into words.

  This has nothing to do with REGEXP. Is SQL * more parser does not not a semicolon at the end of the line:

  Just break the chain:

• How to split a string into several substrings parent using a delimiter

  Hello

  I am forced to split a string into several substrings parent using a delimiter.

  And insert these substrings in variuou of the columns of a table in a row.

  For example. The sting is: ABC * DEF * GHI * JKH *.

  where ' *' is the separator.

  Desired output:

  Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 Col5

  -------     --------     --------     -------     ---------

  JKH GHI ABC DEF (null)

  Could you please guide me how can I achieve this.

  Hello Salim,

  Leave the thread for reference... got this excerpt:

  with t as

  (

  Select "c: its: hgfd:1:23" Str

  )

  Select

  REGEXP_SUBSTR (str, ' ([^:] *)(:|$)', 1, 1, null, 1) col1

  , REGEXP_SUBSTR (str, ' ([^:] *)(:|$)', 1, 4, null, 1) col4

  , REGEXP_SUBSTR (str, ' ([^:] *)(:|$)', 1, 5, null, 1) col5

  t;

  This code snippet works well, but for the fixed columns. Here are 5 predefined columns.

  But I need to have a logic that I can browse the string any No.. sometimes.

  For example. If I get 3 secondary channels of the parent chain... I need to insert into 3 columns.

  And if I get 6 strings under... I need to insert into 6 columns.

  Could you please help me develop a logic like that.

  I use Oracle database 10g.

  And the data are currently being collected on external table... but I can store in a variable or a column of a database table.

  Thank you

  Use REGEXP_SUBSTR:

• Split a string using regexp_substr with consecutive delimiter

  I split a string with tubes as a delimiter. A string like this for example:

  "THIS |" EAST | ONE | EXAMPLE '

  If I do something like this:

  SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR('THIS|IS|AN|EXAMPLE', '[^|]+', 1, 4) FROM DUAL
  

  I would get the word EXAMPLE

  But if the string is like this:

  "THIS |" EAST | ONE | EXAMPLE '

  With the above query, I always get EXAMPLE, but the word should be in the next position (5) because after IS, there should be an empty element

  Is it possible to change the regular expression to also get the empty element?

  Thanks in advance

  Well, the way I understand it, you get this behavior, because there is 'nothing' between the delimiters. so there is a field, so it does not display it don't think the regular expression.

  Try it with a space between the delimiters - works fine.

  So, with this in mind, the simplest solution might be something like that?

  regexp_substr (replace(c,'||','| |'), "[^ |]") +' 1, 4)

  [edited to avoid having a partial answer marked "correct"]

  As mentioned below by a few others, there are other solutions using regular expressions.

  The solution above does not work if more than 2 consecutive fields are empty, or if the first or last is empty.

  A simple tweak to the logic would help with this:

  RTrim (regexp_substr (replace (c,'|))) ',' |'), ' [^ |] +', 1, level))

  However, even if it has still some limitations compared to the solution of the full regular expression mentioned by Frank, below.

  Split() takes a regular expression. ' | ' has a special meaning in regular expressions.

• split a string using any delimiter and display a table

  Hello

  I'm trying to split a delimited string and an array of the output results.

  I come from a background of .net and c# code I would use would be

  Dim myString As String = "mystring\r\nto\r\nsplit";

  String [] myString = mystring. Split (newchar [] {'\n', '\r'}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);

  The code above have a line of muli on the input string (where the \r\n) and the output of a table with the following content

  'mystring '.

  « à »

  'split '.

  In addition, I would like to also support comma-delimited files.

  I used the string function

  "Spreadsheet String To Array" that works well enough for the lines of delimited by commas, but not when the delimiter is something funky like '\r\n '.

    • Quantifier: + between one and unlimited times, as many times as possible, giving necessary [greedy]
    • @ the literal character @.

  Hello

  I have string like below, and I want to divide and insert the numbers in another column.

  Example of

  ---------------

  test012345

  ABC] 9876

  Output should be as below so that once I am able to split can insert into 2 separate table columns

  test 012345

  ABC] 9876

  Try this

  with t as

  (

  Select 'test012345' c all the double union

  [Select ' abc] 9876' double

  )

  Select col1, col2 regexp_replace(c,'[^[:digit:]]') t regexp_replace(c,'[[:digit:]]')

  COL1 COL2

  ---------- ----------

  test 012345

  ABC] 9876
