  SQL * Loader: release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production

  The CTL file has two clauses INTO TABLE due to the nature of the data. The data presented are a subset of data in the real world file. We are only interested in the lines with the word "Index" in the first column.

  The problem we need to do face is, according to paragraph INTO TABLE appears first in the corresponding CTL lines file to the WHEN CLAUSE it would insert and the rest get discarded.

  2. data file to simulate this issue contains the lines below 10. Save this as name.dat. The intention is to load all of the rows in a CTL file. The actual file would have additional lines before and after these lines that can be discarded.

  Unless you tell it otherwise, SQL * Loader assumes that each later in the table and what clause after the first back in the position where the previous left off.  If you want to start at the beginning of the line every time, then you need to reset the position using position (1) with the first column, as shown below.  Position on the first using is optional.

  you could try pressing and use 'ctrl' then 'P' on your keyboard
  We also write 'ctrl + P', it's the printing system wide combination of shortcut keys.

  Alternatively, you can try, right-click in the title bar (where your loading tabs) and selecting 'Menu Bar', which will show the menu bar (with file, editing, display, etc.) on the tabs allowing you to print from the submenu file

• How to draw a line (with the line segment tool) then draw another line, from those previous anchor point. When I try immediately draw another line on the other anchor lines it try to turn instead.

  I'm following a course of basic fundamental illustrator on Lynda. The video of "draw straight lines" is troubling me. They draw a line with the line segment and then draw another line coming out the anchor point at an angle.

  Here's where it is troubling me - when I try to drag a line to the anchor point trying to transform the first line, I drew. (the line cursor turns into a selection tool) I can't draw another line connecting the first.

  Advice would be great because it's driving crazy me.

  See you soon,.
  Kyle

  Yes, it is irritating. You must clear the previous line first. If you want to make sure that both ends are perfectly aligned, start by turning on the guides. If you want two lines to be part of the same way, you should use the tool pen instead.

• In Adobe Flash CS6, I have a blue box appearing around lines drawn with the line tool (and other tools like the brush etc.). I can't understand how to disable.

  In Adobe Flash CS6, I have a blue box appearing around lines drawn with the line tool (and other tools like the brush etc.). Whenever I try to use a tool, a blue box appears around the line and I have to double click on it to handle, which opens just this line in a screen finery semi where all other objects are semi-gris in the background. I can handle this line in this screen, but nothing else at this point I could do 5 minutes ago. For example, I can no longer reach the 2 lines drawn by the tool online together. For some reason, it started randomly (probably due to an accidental combination) and I just can't put it to what it was. I inserted a video showing if all goes well I mean. Any help would be appreciated.

  Object drawing mode. Simply disable it in the tools Panel, or by using the default keyboard shortcut, which is J.

• "Shenanigans" with the car dock - sometimes is not load, sometimes the line audio stops...

  So - I bought the AT & T w/o the 12VDC power supply kit.

  I have three of them already, so I thought no big deal, but here is the result:

  -A supply of 500mA. No charge and the phone continues to flow.

  -A single port of 1000mA supply - I get the (fresh) lightning for an hour, then stops and begins to bleed

  -A double-USB 1000mA supply - I get the Flash most of the time, but phone seems to "slow charge" only

  I decided to buy something different. The iPad has a much higher load must be (10 watts) so I thought that the Atrix might need something similar because of the screen, BT, GPS and radio satellite continuously at the same time.

  I bought a Belkin USB power designed to support the iPad, so there a power of 2100mA @ 5VDC thinking she would probably charge the Atrix - and he did it, worked like a champ, except when it is plugged in, the audio power stops via the audio jack of 3.5 mm on the dock cable car. As soon as I unplug the power supply, audio comes immediately.

  I'm trying to find the specs on the Motorola offers that Docks with the OEM racing car but there is no information on the sales of motorcycle brand site. Anyone know?

  Does anyone else have these strange questions?

• Load with the incremental update of the IKM Oracle

  Hi Experts,

  According to my understanding, incremental load is that the new data (with insert append or load incremental (update/insert or merged with or without behavior SCD)).

  While peek into the code of the IKM KM here it is my understanding:

  Incremental update: given the PK defined in the target data store, that KM will check line by line and put insert/update (change data capture).

  Append: Blindly block for the table insertion target and any changed data will be captured. It will not truncate and insert so that to avoid duplicates in the data, have a PK defined in the target table, so whenever the duplicate data comes it can be prevented or go for CKMs.

  
  

  Now my doubt is,

  
  

  When you use the incremental km update: the scenario is I have an incremental load today, inserted for example 200000 files today and tomorrow other 200000 records added (may include updates of certain lines in the previous loaded 2,00,000 documents. Now it will scan 4,00,000 (yesterday + today) and seek changes, I mean to update or insert

  Because according to my understanding will treat this KM row by row all records (my understanding is correct?). If it reads each record and are looking for a change or not change it seems to me that his time and performance issues?  CDC is right approach in this scenario or the implementation of SDC on all columns in the table?

  
  

  Regarding the large number of records coming daily, updated incremental if IKM checking all records for update or insert or no change, in my opinion, this isn't a performance wise and time to compare source and target value. This KM eliminate comparing itself the Chronogram of the source to target those who does not charge any change in any of the previous column value?

  
  

  
  Sorry if this is a silly question. Just trying to figure which can be better charge strategy, especially when I have millions of records entering source daily.

  
  

  SSX I remember ealier JeromeFr our expert member in the community, said Partioned Exchange to treat only to process the given month data when you manage tables partitioned at the database level.

  Hi ASP_007,

  Charge, as opposed to full reload, does indeed only new (and possibly changed) data. There are 3 main ways to do this:

  • Set up a filter in your mapping interface/load only the data including the upper date to a variable (which holds the last loading date).
  • Use the framework of the CDC in ODI. There are several JKMs. The solution optimal is probably the Golden Gate, one, but you must purchase this additional license. mRainey wrote about this several times: http://www.rittmanmead.com/2014/05/goldengate-odi-perfect-match-12c-1/
  • Retrieve all the data in the source and allow an incremental update of the IKM define what already exists.

  Of course, the first two still will take a little more time to develop, but it will be much faster in terms of performance because you treat data less.

  It is for the part "Extract", get data from the source.

  Now, you must know how to "integrate" into your target. There are different strategies as insert Append, incremental update, Type 2 SCD...

  • Indeed insert Append won't update. It will only insert lines. It is a good approach for a full charge, or for an additional charge when you want to insert data. There is an option in most of the IKMs Append (control) to truncate the table before inserting (or delete all the lines if you do not have the privileges to truncate).
  • Incremental update: there are different IKMs for this and some may have better performance than others depending on your environment. I recommend you to try a few and see which is more fast for you. For example ' IKM Oracle incremental update (MERGE) "could be faster than 'IKM Oracle incremental update. I personally often use a slightly modified version of ' IKM Oracle incremental update (MERGE) for Exadata ' to avoid using a work table (I$ _) and perform the merge directly into the target table. The last approach works well with the CDC when you know that all data are new or changed and needs to be treated.
  • SCD2: To maintain your dimensions needing SCD2 behavior.

  So in answer to your questions:

  Because according to my understanding will treat this KM row by row all records (my understanding is correct?). If it reads each record and are looking for a change or not change it seems to me that his time and performance issues?

  Some of the IKMs will do it line by line, others will do it based on a game. This is why it is important to check what he does and he spots.

  CDC is right approach in this scenario or the implementation of SDC on all columns in the table?

  Yes certainly, you will have less data to be processed.

  Regarding the large number of records coming daily, updated incremental if IKM checking all records for update or insert or no change, in my opinion, this isn't a performance wise and time to compare source and target value. This KM eliminate comparing itself the Chronogram of the source to target those who does not charge any change in any of the previous column value?

  Yes, by using ' IKM Oracle incremental update (MERGE) for Exadata ' with the strategy of 'NONE '. This means that he will not try to see the rows from the source is already in the target.

  PS; I am remember ealier JeromeFr our expert member in the community, said Partioned Exchange to treat only to process the given month data when you manage tables partitioned at the database level.

  It is a good approach when you want to reload an entire partition (if you have a monthly charge in a monthly partition or a daily load in a daily score for example). It is easier to set up to load the new lines only. But if you need to update things in the source, you can use incremental update strategy on an intermediate table that contains the same data that your partition and then create the swap partition in a further step.

  Thanks for the mention.

  Be sure to close your other discussions.

  It will be useful.

  Kind regards

• Performance issues and options to reduce the loading with the Oracle text implementation

  Hi Experts,

  My database on Oracle 11.2.0.2 on Linux. We have Oracle implemented for the fuzzy search. Our oracle text indexes are defined as sync on commit that we cannot afford to have stale data.  Now our application done literally thousands of inserts/modifications/deletions of these columns where we have these Oracle text index defined. Thus, we see a significant impact on performance because the oracle text synchronization routines is called on each commit. We do nightly index optimization (optimization full every night at 3:00).  The text index oracle internal operations are appearing at the top of the sql page in our AWR report and fears it causes a lot of load on the DB.  Since we do optimization of the complete index once during the night, I think I should change that, and if I do, he's going to help us?

  For example, here are some data of AWR report my one day:

  Time elapsed (s)	Executions	Time by Exec (s)	% Total	% CPU	%IO	SQL ID	SQL module	SQL text
  27,386.25	305 441	0.09	16.50	15.82	9.98	ddr8uck5s5kp3		Start ctxsys.drvdml.com_sync_i...
  14,618.81	213 980	0.07	8.81	8.39	27.79	02yb6k216ntqf		begin ctxsys.syncrn (: idxownid,...)

  
  More top sql full text:

  ddr8uck5s5kp3	begin ctxsys.drvdml.com_sync_index (: idxname,: idxmem,: partname); end
  02yb6k216ntqf	begin ctxsys.syncrn (: idxownid,: idxoname,: idxid,: ixpid,: rtabnm,: flg); end;

  Now if I do optimization of the complete index that more often, and not only once night 15:00 will be this average, the load on DB sync on commit will decrease? If Yes, how many times should I optimized and the optimization itself does not lead to a load? Can anyone suggest?

  Thank you

  OrauserN

  It's to you which values you want to experiment.  Since 1 G, which is the same as 1024M is the maximum I could try that assigning to an index and see what effect it has.  You can use the same AWR report that you used previously and compare performance.  To determine when paging depends on your operating system and what tools you have.  Another option might be to use TRANSACTIONAL, that allows searching for unsynchronized lines and allow you to synchronize every five minutes, like Herald suggested, without any latency problem.  You can read about it here (scroll down to transaction):

• How to load the PDF (HTML Loader) with the reference of the file (dialog box) [AIR]?

  Hello.  I try to get my AIR application to load a PDF document from the dialog box using the file reference class.

  With the code that I have if I use an ordinary charger so I can get a PNG image to be loaded into a container and display on the screen.  But PDF requires HTML Loader that seems not to accept event.target.data because he expects a string.

  This is the error I got

  TypeError: Error #1034: Type coercion failed: cannot convert ["'FileReference object] in flash.net.URLRequest.

  at test_pdf_load_from_dialogfla_fla::MainTimeline/loadFile() [test_pdf_load_from_dialogfla_fl a.MainTimeline::frame1:61]

  Test_pdf_load_from_dialogfla.swf [UnloadSWF]

  Here is my code:

  import flash.net.URLRequest;

  import flash.display.MovieClip;

  import flash.html.HTMLLoader;

  import flash.net.FileReference;

  import flash.net.FileFilter;

  var file:FileReference=new FileReference();

  var container: MovieClip = new MovieClip();

  addChild (container);

  var i: Number = 1;

  the button is an object on the stage, will not be called via actionscript

  button.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, showDialog);

  var myFile:FileReference;

  var myFileLoader:HTMLLoader;

  function showDialog(e:MouseEvent):void {}

  myFile = new FileReference();

  var PDFFileType:FileFilter = new FileFilter ("PDF Documents (*.pdf) ',"*.pdf"");

  myFile.browse ([PDFFileType]);

  myFile.addEventListener (Event.SELECT, selectFile);

  }

  function selectFile(e:Event):void {}

  myFile.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, loadFile);

  myFile.load ();

  }

  myFileLoader = new HTMLLoader();

  function loadFile(e:Event):void {}

  myFileLoader.load ((e.target) m:System.NET.SocketAddress.ToString ());

  }

  (with the new selection of forum I also can't seem to put this topic in the location of the ActionScript of Flash Pro forum.)

  Success!

  I was thinking about this subject for several hours, when I thought that "maybe the statement in the function loadFile e.target may contain the"name"property.

  When I used a trace statement to test this, my thoughts have revealed that, to be precise.  The appeal of e.target.name fills indeed console output with the correct file name.

  To be sure that I did the following:

  myFileLoader.load (new URLRequest (String (e.target.name)));

  myFileLoader.width width = [[set to something other that the default value of 0 to show the PDF of the HTMLLoader content]]

  myFileLoader.height = [[ditto of the previous line, the default value is 0, which would make the invisible PDF content]].

  I'm so happy to have had this inspiration and also to the fact that the ActionScript documentation I found has good examples to follow.
