SQL & PL/SQL :: Regexp_SUBSTR On Array Returning No Value
Oct 1, 2013
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.

I created a table and some type definitions in oracle 10.2.0.3 DB as follows. There is also a procedure that I defined and is shown below.
SQL> create table test_proc
(
test_name varchar2(10),
test_ver number (3,3),
active_flag number(2)
);
Table created.
SQL> select * from test_proc;
TEST_NAME TEST_VER ACTIVE_FLAG
---------- ---------- -----------
AFP 1.5 2
PSA 11.89 0
EHIV 99.5 3
aHAVM 1.45 9

Now from Pro*C function I want to pass a similar array of structure to this procedure and return it via the out parameter of the procedure back to Pro*C. How do I do it?
I am using the attached program but its giving me compiler error as follows..
Error at line 31, column 1 in file sample.pc
proc_modify_tdefs (:in_tdefs,:out_tdefs);
1
PLS-S-00306, wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'PROC_MODIFY_TDEFS'

I got a record in the column:
<li class='tbl-b'>Ram card: Yes, typ: MicroSD, max. 16 GB </li>
And I would like to extract just:
Ram card: Yes, typ: MicroSD, max. 16 GB
Without <li class='tbl-b'> and </li>.
I try to do this by REGEXP_SUBSTR but not successfully.

My Database is in Oracle 11g.
My query returns the 3rd field from a CSV string. If the third field in the string is empty I want the select to return a null but it returns the 4th field :
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR( 'A,B,,D,E','[^,]+',1,3) from dual;
.. this returns 'D'.
Can we somehow make the REGEX_SUBSTR return a NULL for the third field ?

I'm trying to get this down from two regexp to a single one, but I'm not sure it can be done and if so, its beyond me to work out how atm.

The expression itself contains all the rules I'm aware of (nothing to say they won't move the goalposts again mind!) of and the desired output is as shown above. I should add that the actual data is more complex (many tags per record) so it rules out a regexp_replace

I can separate numbers from string (info) and the first value of the string using REGEXP_SUBSTR (see below):
with dat as (select '35263304 Alcatel One Touch 806' info from dual)
select info, REGEXP_SUBSTR ( info, '[[:digit:]]+',1 ) tac,
REGEXP_SUBSTR ( info, '[[:alpha:]]+',1) brand
from dat
But how can I get rest of the values from that string (red color) ?
I just would like to get separately like:
35263304 Alcatel One Touch 806

I am using embedded sql in a Fortran program on IBM AIX. Whenever I execute a SQL statement other than connect I get a coredump. So I wrote a small test program, but same thing happens. This is the test program -
PROGRAM TEST
EXEC BEGIN DECLARE SECTION
CHARACTER*20 UDPWD
EXEC END DECLARE SECTION
[code]....
And then when I run test, I see the 'Connected' print & then coredump. Same thing happens for EXEC SQL Prepare statement. Am I not linking some library ?

I am using regexp_substr to break the pipe delimited string. Want to use the output as the NUMBER input to a cursor.Its not working and not getting any error also.
Here is an example.
initial input : '5545|4124|12456'
using the sql below to break the string into columns.
select regexp_substr('5545|4124|12456','[^|]+', 1, level)) from dual
connect by regexp_substr(, '[^|]+', 1, level) is not null;
But when i try to pass the output of the above query to a cursor with input defined as number, its not accepting. I tried using to_number for the output of above query.

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).
I've created & populated table TEST_TAB:
SQL>
SQL> CREATE TABLE "TEST_TAB"
2 ( "KEY1" NUMBER(10));
Table created.
SQL>
SQL> insert into "TEST_TAB" values ('1');
1 row created.
SQL> insert into "TEST_TAB" values ('2');
1 row created.
SQL> insert into "TEST_TAB" values ('3');
1 row created.
SQL> insert into "TEST_TAB" values ('4');
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL>
SQL>
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;

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);

TYPE CashRecord IS RECORD(client_id VARCHAR2(100),
account_letter VARCHAR2(100),
cash_amount VARCHAR2(100),
cash_amount_ccy VARCHAR2(100) );
TYPE CashRecordTable IS TABLE OF CashRecord INDEX BY VARCHAR2(100); -- Indexed by client_id~account_letter~ccy
So if I did something like this;
l_cash_records CashRecordTable;
-- say for example that l_cash_rec/l_cash_rec2 has been defined..
l_cash_records('some index') := l_cash_rec;
l_cash_records('some index 2') := l_cash_rec2;
l_cash_records.COUNT would give me 2
How can I somehow remove 'some index 2' so that l_cash_records.COUNT is 1 ?

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;

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.

Is there any way in PL/SQL to select the values from all columns of a table record into an array?
For example:
C1|C2|C3
0 |1 |2
v_array(0) value is 0
v_array(1) values is 1
v_array(2) values is 2
or
v_array(C1) value is 0
v_array(C2) values is 1
v_array(C3) values is 2
But i need to do this without mention the column names, something like: SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE id=1 INTO v_array;

I have some issues in passing array values to IN clause.
I am passing a String Array from Java to PL\SQL and want to use the Array values in the IN CLAUSE of Select Query
cust_array is the Array
search_id VARCHAR2(1000);
search_id := '';
FOR j IN 1 .. cust_array.count
LOOP
IF (j != 1) THEN
search_id := search_id || ''',''' || cust_array(j) || ''';
ELSE
search_id := search_id || '''' || cust_array(j) || '''';
END IF;
END LOOP;
trying to form a string of below form: search_id '3211335201','3211335209','3211335279','3211335509'
and use the string search_id in the IN clause of the search Query select * from DPP_EMP where empl in (search_id)
but the query does not returns any result
When I try to hardcode the values in the query as below, its returing 4 rows
select * from DPP_EMP where empl in ('3211335201','3211335209','3211335279','3211335509')
