I want to display columns along with their constraints using describe command
Is it possible?

I am trying to describe an STP in a package, but it gives me an error.
e.g. In package ABC suppose there is an STP XYZ, I am trying to describe ABC.XYZ function but it gives me an error code 4043 and error message object XYZ.ABC does not exist.
in the case below, when i created VIEW to add a new Department for some reason, its length is un-identified but i want the length as describe in table, how i can get ?

how to create a script that will describe only the structure of 150 tables of a database.have it just like this, but I cannot produce the name of the table:
spool desctab.sql
select 'desc '||owner||'.'||table_name||'' from all_tables where owner='SKIMA'
order by table_name;
spool off
.. the output of the spool file is something like this:

There are several stages for sql processing in 10g2 database concept document.The following stages are necessary for each type of statement processing:
■ Stage 1: Create a Cursor
■ Stage 2: Parse the Statement
■ Stage 5: Bind Any Variables
■ Stage 7: Run the Statement
■ Stage 9: Close the Cursor
Optionally, you can include another stage:
■ Stage 6: Parallelize the Statement
Queries (SELECTs) require several additional stages, as shown in Figure 241:
■ Stage 3: Describe Results of a Query
■ Stage 4: Define Output of a Query
■ Stage 8: Fetch Rows of a Query
Stage 3: Describe Results of a Query The describe stage is necessary only if the characteristics of a query's result are not known; for example, when a query is entered interactively by a user. In this case, the describe stage determines the characteristics (datatypes, lengths, and names) of a query's result.
Stage 4: Define Output of a Query In the define stage for queries, you specify the location, size, and datatype of variables defined to receive each fetched value. These variables are called define variables. Oracle performs datatype conversion if necessary.
I still don't understand what's Stage 3: Describe Results of a Query and Stage 4: Define Output of a Query.
I 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.
How do know all the constraints that are present on the data in a table in oracle ??
View 2 Replies View RelatedBasically, 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.

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.

I 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)
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

View 3 Replies View Relatedwhy my code wont work. Am trying to create a constraint so that the only data that can be entered into the size field is a number between 4 and 15.
CREATE TABLE accommodation

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.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI knew, how to enable or disable a constraint on a table.
>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 have a table with 2 defined FK constraints which fires delete cascade events.
I want to deny deletions when the event is fired from one of the tables and permit them when the event is fired from the other table.
Is it possible?
Is any way to solve which table fires the event?

I understand that I can only use invoice_no once since it is a unique key.
