Constraints On A Table
Feb 25, 2008How do know all the constraints that are present on the data in a table in oracle ??

View 2 RepliesI want to create a store procedure to copy data from a source tables(which may not have any constraints defined) to a table which has primary key, foreign key and unique key constraints.
Any records which are rejected due to these constraints not being satisfied need to go another table.
Once the initial data load is done, these procedures need to be automated(through cron) to do the future incremental uploads in the same manner.
what command is used to create a table by copying the structure of another table including constraints ?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to print all the constraints on all columns given a table name.
Example:
SQL>@constrnts
Enter Table Name: emp
empno ---- Primary key
deptno ---- foreign key references Dept(deptno)
When we create a duplicate table, we use the below query:
create table table2 as select * from table1;
But table2 is created without any constraints inherited from table1.Can I know how can i create the table with all the constraints existing in parent table.
I want to truncate table partition but I'm getting error:
CODEORA-02266: unique/primary keys in table referenced by enabled foreign keys
because of table has a nested table. Currently this column is not in use so I could drop it, but I want to avoid it (table is huge). Is there another posibility to do truncate partitions in this table? ALTER TABLE ... SET UNUSED doesn't resolve the problem.
can a table level check constraints have conditional checking (if else clause or case conditional structures) and checks which are limited through something like a where clause which inside the table level check constraints.And can a table level check constraints refer to a column in another table column which should have a the same value.

>alter table <table_name> disable constraint <constraint_name>;
But if we know all the data is correct, it's better to disable all constraints to improve the performance.
We are allowed to Disable or Enable only a single constraint.
Enable or Disable All Constraints.
i am a beginner in SQL and want to create a table with the following constraints :
'orderno' should be primary key and start with o
'clientno' should be foreign key
'ordr date' is not null
'salesmanno' foreign key
'delytype' default value 'f' and possible value ( f or p)
'delydate' cannot be less than order date
'orderstatus' values ('in process.......)
here's my
create table sales_order(orderno varchar2(6) like 'o%' primary key,
clientno varchar2(6) foreign key references client_master(clientno),deldate date not null,dellyaddr varchar2(25),salesmanno varchar2(6) foreign key references salesman_master(salesmanno), delytype char(1) default 'f',billyn char(1),delydate date check > orderdate,orderstatus varchar2(10)check ('in process','fullfilled','cancelled');

View 7 Replies View RelatedI know that you can view all constraints in a table using $USER_CONSTRAINTS or $USER_INDEXES view. What i find difficult is that the information in those views is not really well presented.
I find it very hard to follow. For example, just to find out which columns are foreign keys and which tables they refer to is really tedious. Is there a simpler way to view all the constraints especially foreign keys of a table and including which table columns they refer to in the child table.
I like to see a diagramatic representaion of all the tables involved so i like to see both the parent and the child tables, which columns are related and using which FKs etc. is there an easier way to view this information?
I have created table as below
create table emp_temp as select * from emp;
the table is created, but the constraints are not copied. Is there any way to copy all the constraints.
can you use alter table command to disable/enable constraints in a form if you can how, if you cant why

CREATE TABLE member
(
member_id NUMBER(10),
last_name VARCHAR2(25) NOT NULL,
first_name VARCHAR2(25),

Error:
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-02270: no matching unique or primary key for this column-list
02270. 00000 - "no matching unique or primary key for this column-list"
*Cause: A REFERENCES clause in a CREATE/ALTER TABLE statement gives a column-list for which there is no matching unique or primary key constraint in the referenced table.
*Action: Find the correct column names using the ALL_CONS_COLUMNScatalog view
I want to display columns along with their constraints using describe command
Is it possible?
SQL> desc dept;
Name Null? Type

DEPTNO NUMBER(2)
DNAME VARCHAR2(14)
LOC VARCHAR2(13)
Basically, I need to fulfil the constraint:
"student cannot have more than 100 points"
I need to use a trigger to do this, but I don't understand how this would work.
Written in plain english I imagine it work work something like:
AFTER UPDATE
WHERE student.lessonid = lesson.lessonid
IF SUM(lesson.points) > 100 then ROLLBACK
lessonid is the only field relating the two tables.

How to fulfill that criteria, whether it be using triggers or not.

View 5 Replies View RelatedIve created a scenario to what im trying to achieve here so ignore how its set-up attribute wise.
CREATE TYPE object_obj AS OBJECT (
obj_id NUMBER,
NAME VARCHAR2(20),
age NUMBER) NOT FINAL;
/
CREATE TYPE object_ext UNDER object_obj (
course_name VARCHAR2(20));
/
CREATE TYPE object_ext2 UNDER object_obj (
location VARCHAR2(20);
/
CREATE TABLE object_tab OF object_obj(obj_id PRIMARY KEY);
/
Now for the course_name i need to make sure it can only be on of these three values ('Science','Math','English'). I can't find a way to apply this constraint without making a table. But then that creates another issue of how to insert the data from the main supertype (object_obj) and i only want the object_tab table and view the subtypes via a select query.

So I'm here creating some tables and if theres a guide where I can take a look at some Constraints Declarations , Mostly cause i have some values on the table that cannot be negative so i need to set constraints to be positive
