SQL & PL/SQL :: Converting BLOB Data To Long Or Varchar
Feb 6, 2013
converting BLOB data into varchar2 or long .
we have function which convert long data and return it has varchar . But has part of Apps upgrade the Column has been converted into blob column.
How we need the same function to read the data from BLOB and return its as long or varchar2.
Somewhere i am making mistake..
CREATE OR REPLACE function GDS.test_alert_msg(v_rowid rowid) return varchar2 is
vblob blob;
i2 number;
amt number :=32767;
len number;
pos raw(32767);
position INTEGER := 10000;
my_vr raw(32767);
[Code]....

Why does oracle not allow the following query
select to_clob(1) from dual
union
select wm_concat(sysdate) from dual;
wm_concat returns a clob. To make both queries in the union have the same type columns i convert the column in the first query to a clob but Oracle gives me an [1]: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got CLOB error even though both are returning a clob value.
Each of the queries work individually and both return a clob value.

display or get values stored in a long column.i tried the below code, but myvar is shown as null. am i missing something here or is there a better apporoach than this ?. There are actually 16 rows returned for this query but with empty values for 'high_value' column which is critical for me. How can i do this long to varchar convertion ?
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
DECLARE
my_var long;
BEGIN
for x in ( SELECT high_value
FROM all_tab_partitions
WHERE table_name = 'SALES_DISCOUNT'
AND table_owner = 'CED12'
ORDER BY partition_position DESC )
[code]....

I am more of a C/C++ guy and relatively amateur in oracle. I have to update a table field from "Long" to "CLOB". I have planned to do a simple alter table, and as far as I know there won't be any issues.
Queries:
1. Although I have triple checked, is there any scenario under which there can be any data loss during the data type change? The data is very critical and no data loss can be entertained.
2. Is there any easy way to update all the related views without having to do so manually?
3. Any particular precautions I should take before introducing the change?

1 - INSERT INTO destination table SELECT id , img FROM Source table WHERE ROWNUM < 2
i have this error ORA-22835 Buffer too small for CLOB to CHAR or BLOB to RAW conversion (actual: 146092, maximum: 2000)
2 - INSERT INTO destination table SELECT id , dbms_lob.SUBSTR(img,0,2000) FROM Source table WHERE ROWNUM < 2

We are migrating a proc application as described below.
Old Env: UNIX
Old DB: Oracle 8i
New Env: Linux
New DB: Oracle 11g
New modules are successfully compiled in Linux environment. But we are facing issues in writing the output of VARCHAR datatype to a file.
find below the extract of code.
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
varchar mcolmnvarchar[4];
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;
EXEC SQL DECLARE crs CURSOR FOR
SELECT NVL(colmn,' ') FROM table1
memset(mcolmnvarchar.arr,'�',4); //Was added for only Linux migration. Not present in unix env.
EXEC SQL FETCH c1 INTO :mcolmnvarchar;
cout << "Data at Stage one"<< mcolmnvarchar << endl;
mcolmnvarchar.arr[mcolmnvarchar.len]='�';
cout << "Data at Stage two"<< mcolmnvarchar << endl;
fprintf(fptr,"%-4s",mcolmnvarchar.arr);
Above code works absolutely fine in Unix env with Oracle 8i. But with Linux env & Oracle 11g it is not working. No compilation or run time errors. Data at Stage one prints the output of database properly. But after null terminator code, Data at Stage two statement prints without any value. Value is lost after null terminator code.

I have a table and data like mentioned below.
create table emp( ename varchar2(20));
insert into emp values ('122');
insert into emp values ('abc');
insert into emp values ('0.2');
insert into emp values ('0-5');
insert into emp values ('25-30');
SQL> Select * from emp;
| ENAME |
-------------------
| 122 |
| abc |
| 0.2 |
| 0-5 |
| 25-30 |
I am running the code
SQL>select regexp_substr(ename , '^[[:digit:]]+.[[:digit:]]+$|^[[:digit:]]+$')
from emp;
AFTER RUNNING I AM GETTING THIS
| REGEXP_SUBSTR(ENAME,'^[[:DIGIT:]]+.[[:DIGIT:]]+$|^[[:DIGIT:]]+$') |
---------------------------------------------------------------------
| 122 |
| (null) |
| 0.2 |
| 0-5 |
| 25-30 |
| (null) |
Why it's not excluding '0-5' and '25-30', how I should write code to exclude this and Is there is any function in oracle to check for numeric in column and print.

I have a .xls file, which has few columns with Korean data. I have problem converting it into .csv. I converted it to UNICODE TEXT, which was TAB separated. I replaced tabs with commas. but still saved it as .txt file. Now I am using utl_file package to open and read.
utl_file.fopen_nchar(l_dir, l_filename , 'R',8000);
I outputted the first header line, and instead of Korean fieldnames, it displayed some different characters.. cannot even copy-paste..
I am uploading the converted .txt as I cannot upload original .xls file here...

Taking Today date and timezone as EST, I need to run a select that shows all the rows , where sysdate falls in between
Start_date and End_date and RunTime, ( run time is basically the Local time of the TimeZone Column)
Basically we should Display rows by checking/Converting, Start_date||End_date||Runtime||timezone with Sysdate(est) then display.
From the Above Data these rows should be Displayed by that select, how to compare this data with sysdate and display.

I have a table containing BLOB column which stores scanned images. Due to an application error, few extra data was padded with BLOB data and now we want to remove it.
The table count will be near to 10 million rows.
We need to remove data from 161byte to 167byte of the blob data. I tried to do with DBMS_LOB.ERASE.But it will create blank spaces for the removed data. Here we need to reduce the size of BLOB data by 6 bytes by removing data from 161bytes to 167 bytes.

Since XML-files only contain character data, we could/should store it in a CLOB, rather than a BLOB.
But, One of my friend having a table where a column is defined as bloband came to know that XML data are being stored. I searched for some article with keyword 'How to insert large XML data in BLOB' But did not work.How to store the large xml content in a Blob and How to extract it?

I have upgraded oracle database from 9i to 11g using export and import utility. After migration we are facing performance issue in report generation, We have observed that First execution of report is taking very long time and when we generate the same report 2 -3 times there is considerable change in the execution time and it is more better than the first execution.
2 days back I have restarted the database and found the same issue. There are around 300 Reports and it is not possible to generate all the reports 2-3 times every time we restart the database.

We are working on a performance tuning aspect, where in a table has a LONG datatype and number of round trips are increasing based on the number of rows fetched.i.e one round trip for every row.
Background.
1. created a table with LONG data type.
2. inserted bulk load of data.
3. set auto trace on and executed below tests..
SQL> select count(*) from test_long;
COUNT(*)
----------
6110
SQL> desc test_long
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ID NUMBER
TESTLONG LONG
[code].....
but on LONG column, irrespective of the array size the round trips does not reduce.
