Can a Oracle Function return Images? I have been getting and able to read lot of solutions but still unconfirmed. As in certain forums it has been mentioned that the difference between procedure and function is that. With procedures you are able to return images but not with function.

I have created a Package Body and Package Spec for a function to select a username and a password from a table and return the username.
The code i have created is this:-
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY USER_LOGIN
AS
FUNCTION user_select (USERNAME_IN VARCHAR2,
PASSWORD_IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
USERNAME_OUT VARCHAR2(12);
BEGIN
[code]........
The package body and spec compiles successfully but i am having trouble when i execute this function. I am trying to do this :-
VARIABLE RETVAL VARCHAR2(12)
EXEC User_login.user_select('HELLO','HELLO',:RETVAL );
but i am getting the following error
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:

how can i insert a image by selecting an image from any drives of my system to oracle database and retriving that image for displaying purpose after inserting that image. if possible give me a sample form. like vb 6.0 or vb.net in textbox's change trigger fires instantly when we start typeing in the text boxes.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a web page written by pl/sql and html which some jpg files are published. Currently they are linked by html from a directory source. There are almost 70000 files which makes 1.15 gb. I want to store them in our oracle database but I have never done this before.
What I want to learn is how will be the performance for selecting from many jpg files with select statement and how much space would they keep in the database?
How to call a function with a row type return in an Oracle select statement.
For e.g. :
If I had this function with a rowtype return:
------------------------------
create function abc
return xyz%rowtype
is
rec xyz%rowtype;
begin
select * into rec from xyz where col1 = n;
return rec;
end;
--------------------------------
How could I use this in a select clause, as there is a multi column return by the function ?
how to insert images into a table or database..i had created a column with BLOB datatype inside a table.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe function definition in PL/SQL has IN OUT parameter as well as return statement. Using both we can return the values. Basic definition of a function is function can return only one value at a time.
The question is, Can we return a number thru return statement and a char value thru INOUT parameter. Is it possible to return two different values using these?
Following is the scenario:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE OBJ IS OBJECT
(
TEST_ID NUMBER(9),
TEST_DESC VARCHAR(30)
)
/
[Code]..
I WANT USED VALUE TEST_ID AND TEST_DESC THE EXISTING IN FUNCTION FN_MY_DATA WITH A VARIABLES :
DECLARE
X NUMBER(9);
Y VARCHAR(30);
BEGIN
X := -- VALUE TEST_ID EXISTING IN FN_MY_DATA;
Y := -- VALUE TEST_DESC EXISTING IN FN_MY_DATA;
END;
whether a function can return two values?

All the coding is there. And also required scripts are also written in this post. Please download the form create the scripts and run the form.
Here we go:
Database : 9i
Forms : 6i
Create Scripts:
CREATE TABLE DOCS_COMP_DOCUMENTS

DOC_ID VARCHAR2(10),
DOC_NAME VARCHAR2(100),
DOC_SCANNED_COPY LONG RAW,

Note: This Procedure is to find the file name and extension and store it as well in database. Create this procedure in database.
To retrieve images just press F7 & F8 in forms
Download the attached .fmb module and run it.
I was just wondering that do we have any function available in oracle which returns the last Friday of the month.
In our company we close our monthly books on last Friday of the month and there are few activities that we have to do on the following Monday as a part of month-end activity. Now the following Monday can fall on the same month or at times it falls on the following month.
I have to schedule a report to be sent to a user on the following Monday after the month-end. I need to schedule it using the cron job.
We are using Oracle 9i on Linux platform.

Now what should be the code to store this image from the image box inside the database? I done a lot of time with Oracle Data Base 11g with the Form Builder 6i and 10g but all in vain . No image store inside the database but browse button work well.
I have the following database function.
GetRegionDetails(id in varchar2, o_lat out number, o_lon out number);
The problem is, the output values are returning as whole numbers ie. 38.108766567 is being returned as 38 and -78.16423574566 is returned as 78
what data type I should use so that my output is returns all the decimal values?

I want to use a function in join clause. so i go for pipelined function(using for loop to get record & 1 more loop to fetch in table type variable). i achieved what i required. but problem is it takes much time to fetch data. is there any other approach which returns table records without pipelined function.

*Cause: identifiers may not start with any ASCII character other than letters and numbers. $#_ are also allowed after the first character. Identifiers enclosed by doublequotes may contain
any character other than a doublequote. Alternative quotes (q'#...#') cannot use spaces, tabs, or carriage returns as delimiters. For all other contexts, consult the SQL Language Reference Manual.
*Action:
We are re-designing our App and we have a critical question, what's the best way (in terms of performance) of using TIFF images (about 20K size) with Oracle.
Currently we have a Windows shared file server and we create the tiff images there under a huge directory structure (like /images/ddddmmyy/aa/bb/001, then /images/ddddmmyy/aa/bb/002, etc, etc). Our database is usually in LINUX version 10, 11 or 12. We create about 200,000 images per day, keep them for 60 days and then remove that structure.
Our Web app (developed with .NET) reads those images just to display them on a Web Session (IE).As you can see, what we are doing now works fine. But network sometimes is an issue and also it's hard to keep synchronization with our DR server, backups, etc.
Are we taking the correct approach? It would be better to have the images in CLOB or BLOBS for better performance? If so, As I mentioned, performance is the KEY FACTOR and the most important item to consider in this design.
I am trying to execute dynamic SQL in Stored Function and I don't know how to do this.
Explanation:
In the function I am calling pr_createtab is procedure which will create a physical table and return the table name in the out variable v_tbl_nm.
I need to query on this dynamic table and return the result as return result. But i am not able to do it.
Here T_web_loylty_report_table is a type.
CREATE OR REPLACE function CDW_DSS.f_ReturnTable(i_mrkt_id in number, i_cmpgn_year in number)
return T_web_loylty_report_table is
v_tbl_nm varchar2(50);
i_cntry_cd varchar2(20);
v_sql_str varchar2(32567);
[code]......
I have created two types and a list of the first type:
create type type1;
/
create type type1_list as table of ref type1;
/
create type type2;
/
I have now just created the two types as follows:
create type type1 as object(
id# number
);
/
create type type2 as object(
attribute1 type1_list,
MEMBER FUNCTION function1 RETURN NUMBER
);
/
Ok, I've created the tables (I don't know if it's necessary to point out my problem)
CREATE TABLE type1_table OF type1;
/
CREATE TABLE type2_table OF type2
NESTED TABLE attribute1 STORE AS nested_type1_list_table;
/
And what I wanted to do now is to implement the member function1 and check something of the attributes of type1 in the list of attribute1... And that's where my question occurs, how does it work, I can't figure it out. I tried something like this:
Quote:
create or replace
TYPE BODY type2 AS
MEMBER FUNCTION function1 RETURN NUMBER AS
[Code]....
But I don't get the right way, it doesn't work
