View 3 RepliesI have to call oracle stored procedure or a function to update user id of one or several rows depending on what user selects.
The oracle person will be writing the stored procedure or function. I am a java developer but was never involved in writing oracle functions. So..
I want to know what is the difference betn stored procedure and function?
From java point of view are there any guidelines when to prefer one over the other(betn stored procedure and function).
I am familiar with WRAP command.It is used in command prompt.
C:> wrap iname=filename.sql
and this thing will convert filename.plb file.
but now I want to wrap my stored Procedure or function.how can i do this thing?it is saved in my disk?
I have wrote a Stored Procedure Function that get all the rows from a Staging Table and assigns it to a CLOB and returns the CLOB. The issue is I'm getting the dreaded
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
ORA-06512: at "F_CLOB_TEST", line 21
ORA-06512: at line 7
The error does not occur when I remove the 'PRC_ID', 'S_FIL_NAME' & 'exportDt' from the query. It works fine. The PRC_ID has data such as "700$702$7 05$706$707$708$709$710$711$712$713$714$715$294404$294405$294407$294408$294409$294410"
and S_FIL_NAM is the same for all columns - "SBENE_FILID810-2010-04-07-10.59.17"
The query returns 829 rows. Also I have to include a few more columns in the query which have data larger than the 'PRC_ID', but I have not included them here in the sample code, as this code by itself returns the ORA-6502 error.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have 2 databases:
Database A
Database B
In Database A I have a series of config tables and stored procedures/functions In Database B I have a lot of tables.
I would like to execute my stored procedures and all associated functions in database A on my data in database B.
Now I've figured out that creating a database link enables me to do SQL selects on data in both A and B...but how do I run SP/Funcs ? I've read something about packages but not sure if I'm heading in the right direction.
Do I need to create a simple synonym ? Can I use the existing DB link ? or is there a special way of calling them, or...
I like the A/B database set up since I can keep battle tested code in one location and have it work across multiple dbs...saves me having to create everything in every database.

I have a sequence my_seq in schema schema1. I have granted select on this sequence to schema2. Doing :
select schema1.my_seq.nextval from dual
in schema2 work as expected. However when I try to compile a package body in schema2 using my_seq in an insert statement, it fails with:
PLS-00302: component 'MY_SEQ' must be declared
What's even stranger is that I have stored procedures that are using the exact same code that are currently compiled and working. Recompiling them yields this error. How is this possible?
how to you execute a stored procedure in ORACLE..For example in SQL SERVER its just
EXEC Proc_Name ParameterValues
How the hell do you do this in oracle i just want to test if my stored procedure works.
connect the following concepts/information I've been collecting. This is not my field but I'm interested in filling some of mine conceptual/technical gaps.
From a JDBC perspective, one of the benefits of Prepared (and so Callable) statements have over the regular ones is that the statement is "compiled"(*) once and then reused (performance gain).
(*) for SQL statements: building of parse tree and exec.plan
In which way can this notion be extrapolated to invocation of Oracle Stored Procedures through CallableStatements? (After clearing my doubts, I may end concluding that the only relevant feature of CallableStatements is their capacity to deal with stored procedure invocations)
According to procedure's precompiled execution plan SQL compilation implies execution plans generation PL/SQL compilation implies P-code generation and, SQL statements (from PLSQL code) are treated no differently by Oracle than SQL from Java or C/C++. These SQLs will be parsed and execution plans for those SQLs created.
...
When the PL code executes the SQL statement, only then does the SQL engine receive the SQL, parse it, and create an execution plan for it.
Therefore, even when the stored procedure can be parsed and cached in SGA (through the OracleConnection.preparedCall("proc") invocation), the SQL statements won't be effectively compiled until they are executed, right? And going deeper, will those SQL statements be cached to be reused in future invocations of the containing stored procedure? Is this a characteristic of the regular stored procedure execution in Oracle? or is it due to the CallableStatement "origin"?
i have this stored procedures:
create or replace
PROCEDURE INSERTXML2(
p_xml_in XMLType,
p_table IN VARCHAR2 ) AS

that works well in little XML files but in XML files that are bigger the stored procedures to not work because string maximum length in Oracle is 4000.
im working with Oracle SQL Developer and Sap Mii, the XML file is generated in Sap Mii and then i have to pass it in one step to database..

I am new to the wonderful world of Oracle. I want to be able to view the results of a stored procedure in an output window, say out of Oracle SQL developer. Unfortunately it appears I need to write some more code to actually view the data. Consider the following:
CREATE OR REPLACE
PROCEDURE TESTSPROC2(c_test out sys_refcursor) AS
BEGIN
open c_test for
select * from test_table order by id_no;
END TESTSPROC2;
to view this I need something on the order of:
DECLARE
cc sys_refcursor;
r cc%rowtype;
BEGIN
TESTSPROC2(C_TEST => cc);
loop
fetch cc into r;
exit when cc%notfound;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('C_TEST = ' || r.data_element);
end loop;
close cc;
END;
But this is weakly typed so I get all sorts of errors associated with the row definition of line 3. create the record based on the table (something like: r test_table%rowtype).
What I really want is a generic reader than can be ported around to output any sproc I put together.
On a more generic note, why Oracle has chosen to make PL/SQL inordinately more complicated than say MS SQL/Servers tSQL? I mean in tSQL I would just write:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TESTSPROC2
AS
select * from test_table order by id_no;
GO
and viola, a nice result set spits out in Query Analyzer (or a .net application).
After compiling a simple valid SP in Toad for Oracle 8.5.1:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE proc_test
AS
DECLARE v_name VARCHAR2(20) := 'Ed Edson';
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Hi, my name is ' || v_name);
END;
The SP is not added to the schema. Also the three status fields (status, created and Last Update in the Procedure Editor remain <Unknown>. It is not a rights or privilege issue, because the creation works perfectly in SQL*Plus!
