  • It looks like I can choose only 4000 characters using the SELECT statement (please, correct me if I'm wrong)

  I'd use the XMLGEN package. But the environment team says no mounted drives in the future with the arrival of the EXADATA.

  NO HARD DRIVE MOUNTED, NO ACCESS TO THE DATABASE DIRECTORIES

  No UTL_FILE

  I need to use the REEL spool the resulting XML data of the SELECT query.

  SQL is a standard in my org, but I can do with a PL/SQL solution also to load data into a table (cannot use a COIL with PL/SQL)

  What I do is:

  1. a column of type CLOB to a xml_report of the loading of the above SELECT query table
  2. Then using SELECT * FROM xml_report to SPOOL the data to a file report.xml

  No need of XMLTYPE data behind. Xml data stream is fine for me.

  In addition, I need to validate the XML file, also using XSD.

  Problem is that the resulting lines of the select query are supposed to be from 15000 to 20000 bytes long.

  Oracle database version: Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64 bit Production

  A Suggestion or a solution to this problem would be appreciated.

  (Sorry for the use of "BOLD", just to make it more readable and highlight the imp points)

  Bravo!

  It looks like I can choose only 4000 characters using the SELECT statement (please, correct me if I'm wrong)

  You use the right method.

  There is an implicit conversion from XMLType to the data type VARCHAR2 as expected by the function TO_CLOB, where the limitation, and the error.

  To serialize XMLType to CLOB, use the XMLSerialize function:

  SELECT XMLSerialize (DOCUMENT

  XMLELEMENT ("accounts",

  ...

  )

  )

  OF ANY_TABLE;

  For the rest of the requirement, I wish you good luck trying to spool the XML correctly.

  You may need to play around with the SET LONG and SET LONGCHUNKSIZE commands to operate.

  You don't explain what output you need, but I guess something like this:

• How to add data to the table using Manager POST for restful Apex application

  Hi all

  I managed to create a service application web Manager restful using GET for the Restful service module. I am able to get the data in row on the presentation of a table row id in the application. But I can't find an appropriate example, how the new data in the table can be posted or deleted. I created a POST handler for a URI scheme and look forward on how to proceed. Any help would be really appreciated.

  Source for the POST Manager:

  Start

  insert into ALL_BOOKS values(:id,:book);

  end;

  Also created 2 parameters id and the book.

  Check out the following tutorials OBE, that explains the creation of GET and POST RESTful Web Services and how to use them in the APEX.

  • Creation and use of RESTful Web application services Express 4.2
  • Creation and use of RESTful Web application services Express 5.0

  Also what yo mean "looking forward on how to proceed? Do you want to or created for use/consume in your Oracle APEX application hosted RESTful web services?

  If Yes, in your Application, you must create a RESTful Web Service reference -> shared components. Then, create a form/report based on Web Service reference.

• Error when inserting XML Date in the Table

  I don't see any XML in what you posted. In any case:

  is a string, not a date. Use:

  to_date('2010-12-15T12:57:19','YYYY-mm-dd"T"HH24:mi:SS')

  For example:

• Update of the data in the table using LAG/LEAD

  Hello!
  
  I have a table that looks like:
  
  CREATE TABLE CUSTOMER_INFO_TEST
  (

  PHONE VARCHAR2 (100 BYTE),
  E-MAIL VARCHAR2 (300 BYTE),
  DATE OF START_DT,
  DATE OF CHANGE_DT,

  );
  
  The example data:
  
  INSERT INTO CUSTOMER_INFO_TEST VALUES ('BOB', 555-1234', ", TO_DATE ('2011-01-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD'), TO_DATE ('2011-01-06', 'YYYY-MM-DD'), TO_DATE ('2011-01-10', 'YYYY-MM-DD'));
  INSERT INTO CUSTOMER_INFO_TEST VALUES ('BOB', 555-1234', ' BOB@GMAIL.) COM', TO_DATE ('2011-01-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD'), TO_DATE ('2011-01-11', 'YYYY-MM-DD'), NULL);

  My question:
  How can I configure end_dt (if null), to the next change_dt minus one
  
  It shows what I want to do:
  
  Select the rowid, account_num, phone, e-mail, start_dt, change_dt, end_dt, nvl (end_dt, lead (change_dt-1, 1) over (partition by account_num of start_dt order)) enddt CUSTOMER_INFO_TEST where end_dt is null;
  
  So, I want to update the table itself with the date in enddt. But how do I do this?
  
  This must be done in a single statement...
  
  Thanks in advance

• Loading XML data in the tables

  Hi, I am currently working on a calendar of upcoming events. I have everything works fine, including the loading of an xml database based on the month and year in the temporary within the XML onLoad section tables, but my problem is obtaining data in a table that I can look in my DrawDays() function. Right now I'm pushing the content of the temporary table in loadXMLevent() in _root. Calendar.event_text_array and this table is filled up until I get into the DrawDays function. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I deleted the code associated with this email.
  
  Thank you!

  You cannot call DrawDays() until loadEventArray() execution.

  Also note that I used XMLTABLE instead of TABLE/XMLSEQUENCE, which is much easier to use (and not deprecated in the latest versions).

  You have not precisely the date format in the TIMESTAMP element so I assumed a conform to W3C.

  If you have a problem with this part, return to a projection of VARCHAR2 and use TO_DATE with actual size.

• including return transport with the XML data in the table

  I am inserting data using XML in a table in a context of InDesign.
  As part of the text, I would put a few carriage returns, so that the text has a line break where I like it rather than that InDesign can do its best estimate as to how to split the lines.

  I tried to put & #8629; and < br / > in the text, but has not been what I hoped, he might.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you!

• whites in the data in the table using the formula node

  I have 2 tables 1 d of data go into a loop. Inside the loop, there is a formula node that combines the 2 sets numbers and did a little math for them. If the result of the calculation is 0, it means that the value is not valid. Nothing other than 0 is good value. The result of the calculation comes out the knot of the formula and leaves the loop becomes a table 1 d. Then my table is saved in a spreadsheet. 0 really screw up my graphics, and I want them to just be white instead. I tried to use NaN instead of 0, but who also live up to my graphics. How can I place white on the output instead of 0 array?

  It seems that your real problem is to define what will make Excel leave gaps.  For LV NaNs graphics to do what you want.

  You can also consider getting the output array an array of strings. There may be string values (NO?) that cause Excel jump.

• Button insert data to the table

  Hello

  I use APEX 4.2.3 with XE, I try to insert data into the table using code below but nothing happen when I press the button, create this button like 'create a button to point to page'-> 'dynamic action'-> 'run pl/sql '.

  begin
  insert into dummy values('xx');
  commit;
  end;
  
  

  So to clarify, you have

  (1) created a button that "action" is "defined by the dynamic action.

  (2) created a dynamic action that executes pl/sql at the click on the button and you are pl/sql?

• How to write a simple select query to get the data of the table as an XML.

  How to write a simple select query to get the data of the table as an XML. In the query, I'm just adding items below which i need be there in the XML document
  

  select '<test_tag>'||EMP_NAME||'</test_tag>','<date>'||sysdate||'</date>' 
  from temp_table where id_num BETWEEN 1 AND 10;

  I have need to add the root tag as well in the beginning and the end of < root > < / root > this xml file. Please advice if this is possible with the select query
  without using XMLGEN, XMLQUERY or any other packages built and function?

  I need to URL escapes with the UTF-8 code points that we have already achieved using the utl_http package. Please help how to do that without using the utl_http package.

  What is wrong with him?

  At present, the only way I can think of to avoid a call to UTL_HTTP. SET_BODY_CHARSET is to write your own little wrapper.
  In this way, you can specify the Boolean parameter or omit it if you choose to use named parameters:
