SQL & PL/SQL :: Function Returning A Table Inside Where Clause?
Apr 5, 2010
DECLARE
cnt number(10);
BEGIN
SELECT COUNT(*) INTO CNT FROM TBL_ADDRESS WHERE ADDRESS_ZIP
IN (SELECT * FROM TABLE(MY_PACK.STR2TBL('46227')));
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (cnt);
END;
MY_PACK.STR2TBL() is a function which takes '|' delimited string, extracts values and returns a table of zipcodes. The function works fine and returns 46227 but the count returned is 0 instead of 280(count returned by replacing inner select with '46227').
i am trying to create table inside function where in after creating table when am trying to access the table with select statement oracle is throwing error 'Table/view doesnot exist -00942', below is the code snippet
create or replace function example (mkey in varchar2) return varchar2 is g_key varchar2(100); l_tbl_ntext exception; pragma exception_init(l_tbl_ntext , -942); begin
begin execute immediate 'select * from example1';
exception when l_tbl_ntext then null; end; execute immediate 'create table example1(skey varchar2, g_key varchar2) storage(buffer_pool, keep)'; end example; /
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE TEST_OBJ_TYPE IS OBJECT ( TEST_ID NUMBER(9), TEST_DESC VARCHAR(30) ) / CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE TEST_TABTYPE AS TABLE OF TEST_OBJ_TYPE / [code]....
I need to include the above function in a plsql package. How I can declare a object type and table type in a pks file? the syntax to include the above code in a .pks and .pkb file?
I got this code snippet online when I was looking for function that returns a table type. what exactly that Exception block does? delete the table when there is an exception, otherwise return the table type?
I have been testing some functionalist, I have been trying to get the updated dept no values into an array and then print the count. But i am getting the following error.
I have implemented, the whole example is to know about 'dynamic sql returning clause into collection'
s@ORCL> select * from t_dept;
DEPTNO DNAME LOC ---------- -------------- ------------- 10 comp NEW YORK 20 Compt DALLAS 30 SALES CHICAGO 40 OPERATIONS BOSTON 60 Comp Ahaaa 80 data ab 80 data ab 80 data ab 80 data ab

I have created a amortization SELECT statement that amortizes loans based upon a table of loan information. The problem is this: when I run an ITERATION on numbers, the select statement returns a value but the ITERATION seems to be reading zero. This leads to a bunch of zeroes in the resultant table.
P C_USER1 C_USER9 C_USER11 C_USER10 C_B1 C_B2 C_BUDGET C_USER12 0 Jones 131828.81 3.348 72 0 0 131828.81 2023.55 0 Jones 131828.81 3.348 1 367.8 -367.8 132196.61 2023.55
As you can see, in column C-B2, despite referencing the column C_USER12 which should have 2023.55 as a value in it, it is returning the mirror opposite of C_B1 which leads me to believe that the system is reading a ZERO in the column despite displaying 2023.55.
Below is the block which i am trying to test in scott schema. I dont want to substute IN clause values directly. So i have written cursor and have added in separate variable separeated by comma.But its not working.
declares varchar2(1000);s1 varchar2(1000);v number := 0;v1 varchar2(2000) := 'SCOTT';j number := 0;cursor hhis select ename from emp;beginselect count(*) into v from emp; for i in hh loops := s||''''||i.ename||''''; j := j+1;if j <> vthen s := s||',';end if;s1 := s1||s;s := null; end loop;dbms_output.put_line(S1); case when v1 in (s1) then dbms_output.put_line('Y'); else dbms_output.put_line('N'); end case;end;
I'm trying to use SYSTDATE in a WHERE clause of nested SELECTS..I want to select a range of info from two days back from today until today (or time it is being run). But when I run this, it says I have a missing expression...
SELECT XXXX FROM XXXX WHERE DATE BETWEEN TO_DATE(SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'YYYYMMDD') -2) AND TO_DATE(SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'YYYYMMDD HH24:MI:SS'))
For the customer ID 123 I want to return Z1, for customer 678 I want to return S2 and for customer ID 345 I want 11
Problem is that I'm new to the concept of looping. I know how to write a function that accepts customer_id as a value write a cursor and then check IF hierarchy = 1 the return FUNCTION_CODE IF hierarchy - 2 THEN ...
but I need something more universal as some of the customers may have hierarchy function 1 and that would be the top one for him but others might have function of hierarchy 10 as top and checking all of the possibilities using if would be just stupid. So how to write something universal ? And of course if function did not find any customer_id then return null.
I have the following function that I am using as a template for any function that executes a select statement and return a single value as an output.
The function is working but I wanted to take an expert opinion if it can be optimized.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION AFESD.F_AGR_GET_AGREEMENT_SERIAL (I_NUMBER0 IN NUMBER, S_SUB_NUMBER VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL, I_TYPE_ID NUMBER)
[Code]....
In addition I want to use the parameter S_SUB_NUMBER that can be NULL and add it to the select statement of the cursor, but I dont know how to do that in one statement.
CURSOR C_AGREEMENT IS SELECT AGREEMENT_SERIAL FROM VW_AGR_AGREEMENT WHERE NUMBER0 = I_NUMBER0 AND TYPE_ID = I_TYPE_ID -->and sub_number is null; -->and sumb_number = s_sub_number
I've seen several code samples that show how to return a REFCURSOR from a Stored Function, but when I try it with C# it gives me allways WRONG NUMBER OF ARGUMENTS or somehing like that.
I presently don't have my code in here, but it is something like this:
I'm trying to debug this function to get the desired results. See attachment for the function code and the test data insert script.

I am trying to run a dynamic select statement form a function and return the result into a variable, everything goes fine but the return is always null!

I have a problem when trying to create a PLSQL function based on an XML extraction query.
I have three dummy tables:
SQL> get create_address 1 create table ADDRESS 2 ( 3 id NUMBER not null, 4 house_number NUMBER, 5 house_name VARCHAR2(20), 6 street_name VARCHAR2(30),
[code]....
And the following dummy data for these:
1 insert all 2 into ADDRESS (ID, HOUSE_NUMBER, HOUSE_NAME, STREET_NAME, CITY, COUNTY, POSTAREA, POSTSTREET) 3 values (1, 1, '', 'Tube Street', 'Norwich', 'Norfolk', 'NF12', '2DF') 4 into ADDRESS (ID, HOUSE_NUMBER, HOUSE_NAME, STREET_NAME, CITY, COUNTY, POSTAREA, POSTSTREET) 5 values (2, 5, '', 'Dave Street', 'Edlington', 'Kent', 'CT34', '8GH') 6 into ADDRESS (ID, HOUSE_NUMBER, HOUSE_NAME, STREET_NAME, CITY, COUNTY, POSTAREA, POSTSTREET)
[code]....
So far so good then. But, what I want to create is a function where I can pass in an id value and return the corresponding XML CLOB.
So I try, very simply, this:
SQL> get get_xml_data 1 create or replace function get_xml_data(p_id in number) return clob is 2 Result clob; 3 begin 4 select xmlroot(xmlelement("HomeData",
[code]....
And, alas, i'm greeted by this:
SQL> / Warning: Function created with compilation errors. SQL> sho err Errors for FUNCTION GET_XML_DATA: LINE/COL ERROR -------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- 4/5 PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored 24/63 PL/SQL: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected NUMBER got - SQL>
I've tried to redo the query in several different ways but so far nothing.

When using the wizard to create a Validation of type "PLSQL Function returning Boolean", why is it mandatory to enter a value in the text field "Error Message" on the screen that follows? This message is never used as the message actually displayed comes from a PLSQL return statement.
POSTCODE_TO_LAT_LNG_GM_API(postcode IN VARCHAR2, lat OUT NUMBER, p_long OUT NUMBER)
to convert a postcode into lat/long values. I then need to add them to the returned SQL statement so I used the string concat operator || with to_char but it comes up with this error when I try to apply the changes: Query cannot be parsed within the Builder. If you believe your query is syntactically correct, check the ''generic column'' checkbox below the region source to proceed without parsing.

There are 2 Oracle databases with pseudo names Remote and Local. I have a function in Remote called FUS.F_Return_10 which simply returns 10 for testing purposes, where FUS is a schema name. In Local I want to create a procedure that will call the above function. Here's the PL/SQL:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST ( V_COUNT OUT NUMBER ) AS V_FOO NUMBER(2,0); BEGIN
[Code]...
There's a Public Database Link called PER_ACC in Local. When I try to create this procedure I get: Encountered symbol "@" when expecting one of the following: .(*%&................

Unfortunately the Body is not accessible to see.The spec of the function is:
FUNCTION MAIN (mvar IN varchar2) RETURN varchar2; I read somewhere that I can call it like:
var myVar VARCHAR2; call PACK.MAIN('blah') into :myVar
But this generates: ORA-01008: not all variables bound
