PL/SQL :: How To Create New Array Using Existing One
Apr 9, 2013
I would like to know how to create an associative array from an existing array plus some columns using other tables using a SQL query, bulk collect to a new array.
For example:
1. array 1 is created like select emp_no, emp_name, dept_no bulk collect into l_emp from emp;
2. array 2 needs to be created from array 1 along with the table department and the output should have all columns of array 1 plus dept_name, loc_no from department table.
3. I know this can be done using a simple join between 2 tables but for some reason I would like to create it as explained above.
4.i wanted them as associate arrays and not object collection.
I have 2 tables that doesn't have primary keys. These 2 tables have same number of rows. I want to create a new table from getting some columns from table1 and some columns from table 2. I want to combine first row from table1 and first row from table2.
Below is example
TABLE1
ACOL1 ACOL2 ACOL3 A1 A2 A3 B1 B2 B3 C1 C2 C3
TABLE2
BCOL1 BCOL2 BCOL3 11 12 13 21 22 23 31 32 33
COMBINED_TABLE
ACOL1 BCOL2 BCOL3 A1 12 13 B1 22 23 C1 32 33
I tried below query but no luck. It gives below error:
Query : create table COMBINED_TABLE AS select a.ACOL1, b.BCOL2, b.BCOL3 from (select ACOL1,rownum from TABLE1) a, (select BCOL2, BCOL3, rownum from TABLE2) b WHERE a.rownum = b.rownum
Error : ORA-01747:"invalid user.table.column, table.column, or column specification"
I have a form with fields like, UserName, User ID Email Address. This is used to create new users & edit existing user information. I wanted to make the Email field mandatory. So i made the email field as 'Required' via Proerty Pallette. So when ever i create new users after this change, i get a message saying 'Field must be required' when i try to skip this email field.
However when i edit existing user information and try to save the data with no email address i am able to save. So, where when i try to save a user info with no email address, i should get a warning saying 'email address is required'. How to go about it and if i wil have to create any trigger.
I would like to create a table in another schema(CBF) as already exist in my schema(TLC) without data but related indexes,synonyms and grants should be include.
How could I do this without using export import. I am using TOAD 9.0.1.

I have a tmp table with 6 cols, and data to be inserted is from two other tables. My problem is there the cols of the table are

I have this in one of the packages WCL_LIB: TYPE vc2_255_arr IS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(4000) INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
and i use it in one of the procedures as PROCEDURE "WCL_EVENTS" (p_event_id IN NUMBER, p_event_arr IN Wcl_Lib.vc2_255_arr, p_model IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL, p_model_code IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL
but the calling procedure doesnt have any array.... Can I declare something like in the procedure to be called p_event_arr IN Wcl_Lib.vc2_255_arr DEFAULT NULL,
I tried, but doesnt seem to work? so how to call the procedure, which has a array as mandatory, but calling one doesnt have any?
I'm having some hard times with attempts to initialize a set of values, Of a specific column from a table into a variable containing it as an array(like a single column table).
Then I am trying to compile a function that gets a parameter - a number. The function should check whether this number exists in this list(return 1), or not(return 0).
I want to initialize key1 column of table TEST_TAB *into* v_my_array(this will be my list), just to see that I can have a set of values in this variable. Then I will want to see if the number is in that list, and return 1 or 0 accordingly.
I get the following error compiling, and can't seem to understand what's wrong:
SQL> create or replace function is_num_in_list (p_number number) 2 return number 3 is 4 TYPE varray_type IS TABLE OF NUMBER(10) INDEX BY PLS_INTEGER; 5 v_my_array varray_type; 6 begin 7 select key1 into v_my_array from TEST_TAB; 8 --if the number provided exists in the list, then 1(TRUE) 9 if p_number in v_my_array then 10 return(1); 11 else 12 --if the number provided *IS NOT* in the list, then 0(FALSE) 13 return(0); 14 end if; 15 end; 16 /
Warning: Function created with compilation errors.

i have a problem when i execute this query and it takes more than 32 minutes and after that connection get hanged in toad 9.2.7 and oracle version 11.2.1.0 with this error- index was outside the bounds of array.
SELECT t.ID AS "serial#", SUM (CASE WHEN (SELECT MAX (g.test_date) FROM label1 a LEFT JOIN label2 g ON g.ID = a.ID ) IS NOT NULL

i want to know the cause of above error and what would be the solution.
I'm trying to query an array where we will have mathnames that have the follow format: variablemathname[00000]
have been digging around for a few days to try and simplify my existing query. As of right now i'm hacking it together to bring back the bracketed array value by using INSTR and SUBSTR. This works and gets me the correct results but I want to clean the code up by using regexp_SUBSTR.
In my reading up on regular expression I've tried to create my pattern by using [.] which I believe to be [any character]. I want it to start at the beginning of the string so I've used [^ and I only want the one occurrence so I've ended my expression with ]
I tried using the escape before my pattern as I know that [ is a metacharacter but I receive the same results.i'm trying to use to get the expression correct.
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR('variablemathname[00000]', '[.],[^,],') RESULT FROM DUAL;
My expectation is it will bring back the following [00000] but the way it is written now is bringing back nothing.
create table test_g(x date); insert into test_g values (to_date('01-NOV-2001','DD-MON-YYYY')); insert into test_g values (to_date('02-NOV-2011','DD-MON-YYYY')); insert into test_g values (to_date('03-DEC-2012','DD-MON-YYYY')); insert into test_g values (to_date('12-DEC-2012','DD-MON-YYYY')); insert into test_g values (to_date('31-DEC-2012','DD-MON-YYYY'));
[code].....
I wrote below procedure
create or replace procedure p_testq(p_in_date in date) is
v_comp date; v_strg varchar2(200); i number:=1; type t_trc is ref cursor; trc t_trc; v_sql varchar2(2000);
-- record to which data goes into
type t_prec is record(x date); prec t_prec;
-- plsql table to store data
type t_frec is table of t_prec index by binary_integer; frec t_frec;
-- flow of data, is from v_sql --> plsql record --> plsql table
begin dbms_output.put_line(' month of paramter '|| P_IN_DATE ||' is '||to_char(P_IN_DATE,'MON')); select min(x) into v_comp from test_g where x <= P_IN_DATE
[code].....
how do I store v_strg values so that the dates are included in single quotes
begin p_testq('12-DEC-2012'); end; v_strg: 06-Nov-2012,09-Nov-2012
I want to use a array variable to store many string values i.e. values like ( "my name is hhhyy and i have a tack", "My data is valid" , "hhggg gaya hujjjs") currently all these values are in seperate variables , I want to consolidate them in one array and use it in further , after replacing some values from them.
I want to take data too. I am thinking of using "Varchar array" with values are in one cursor i want to take them in single array. varchar array is throwing some exception once it has taken all the value. I had extended it upto 100 values.
create or replace function testet ( value varchar2) return varchar2 as x_value Varchar2(2000); x_value2 varchar2_array := varchar2_array(); x_value3 number; [code].....
I have requirement to create a procedure that accepts an Array as IN parameter , Query a table using this array and return the result as refcursor . I tried to get it as below but not working .
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE ARR_ID AS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(20); / CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST_ARRAY (P_ARR_ID IN ARR_ID, P_CUR_OUT OUT SYS_REFCURSOR)
AS
BEGIN
OPEN P_CUR_OUT FOR SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEE WHERE EMP_ID IN (SELECT * FROM TABLE(P_ARR_ID )); END; /
create or replace function nothin return int as type arr_type is table of departments.department_id%type index by binary_integer; arr arr_type; begin select department_id into arr from departments; return 4; end;
It gives the error : Quote:expression 'ARR' in the INTO list is of wrong type I can't figure out why.
I need to count number of elements in the same catagory of an array.. For example, an array consists of {'a','b','c','c','a','d','c'} means, i need to display like a=2, b=2, c=3, d=1.
I have written the below code.
declare type array_val is varray(10) of varchar2(15000); counter number:=0; SMQ_NAME ARRAY_VAL:=ARRAY_VAL(); begin
[code]....
But its not showing exact output as my requirement..
I am providing the complete code and my exact requirement.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE INTERNAL_SCORING_RAM IS PROCEDURE TrendScoring_ram(pBUID IN STAGING_ORDER_DATA.BUID%TYPE, OrderNum IN STAGING_ORDER_DATA.ORDER_NUM%TYPE, ReturnValue OUT VARCHAR2);
[code]...
/In my code the procedure "trendscoring_ram" is calling "inserttrend_ram" procedure 70 times for different variable values. Instead of calling the "inserttrend_ram" procedure 70 times.
want to hold the values in a associative array , defining it in package and call that procedure only once.As below.
i have written one procedure which is giving an error PL/SQL:ORA-00902: invalid data type, how to get the distinct value.
there is one table xyz and this table having so many attributes and file_data one of the attribute which is having CLOB data type. I have to find out distinct value in each record of file_data.
suppose for example
TABLE XYZ
col1 col2 file_data A B <CLOB VALUE>------------------------ this CLOB VALUE containing duplicate record V X <CLOB VALUE>------------------------- this CLOB VALUE also containing duplicate record
create or replace procedure test_dealer_upload IS t_out_file UTL_FILE.file_type; t_buffer VARCHAR2(32767);
I am passing a string from vb.net through oracle store procedure. String consists of varchar values for eg '123456;I|N,2424424;O|A'. But how can i call these string values into array using oracle stored procedure? After getting these values into array , i wanted to loop through these values.
