SQL & PL/SQL :: Storing And Reading Xml Data From XMLType Table

Aug 21, 2010

Since I need to do something along the lines of inserting an xml document into the database for later to use.

Anyway, the problem I get with the below is

Quote:
Error at line 95
ORA-00984: column not allowed here

Script Terminated on line 95.

It's on the INSERT line

declare

xmlInput clob;
begin
xmlInput :=('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1256"?>

XML DB :: How To Select Parent / Child Related Data From XMLTYPE Table

Jan 9, 2013

select * from V$VERSION

Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
CORE 11.2.0.2.0 Production
TNS for Solaris: Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production

I have loaded into an Oracle table defined as XMLTYPE. I'm okay with PL-SQL and stored procedures, where I will ultimately do this processing once I get a handle on XML DB querying from an XMLTYPE table.

Based on reading the oracle documentation about XML DB, and more importantly, reading dozens of posts to this forum,I have been successful in loading the XML files into a SQL XMLTYPE table and doing simple queries against that table to retrieve some of its data so that I can then insert that data into other target oracle relational tables.

how to select parent/child data from XMLTYPE tables. I am able to follow the forum examples and can replicate the methods shown on the many example XML contents shown on this forum, but not against the XML that I have to process. I am wondering if my struggle is caused by my lack of knowledge, or by ill-formed XML content supplied to me by the educational vendor.The XML content has structured the XML content nodes in such a way that I do not seem to be able to apply the parent/child sql methods.I have been able to use for other XML examples I have tested against.

My XML file shown below represents High School Transcript data, for which I need to be able to parse out into my own oracle relational tables for that student, his personal info, and his course info, etc. i.e., for our example, which courses he has taken for which High School grade levels. The vendor-supplied XML seems to put the Courses and the High School grade level in "parallel nodes," instead of parent/child nodes, so I am struggling to be able to use SQL to differentiate which course the student took in NinthGrade versus TenthGrade.

-- WHat I would like to determine from a select statement:

LASTNAME GradeLevel COURSETITLE
=============================
Smith NinthGrade PHYS ED 101
Smith TenthGrade CALCULUS 201
Smith TenthGrade ZOOLOGY 202

(The data has been simpliied and masked, but is true to the content and is queryable).

SQL & PL/SQL :: Partial Data Inserted When Reading From Global Temporary Table?

Jun 25, 2012

I have a complex sql query that fetches 88k records. This query uses a global temporary table which is the replica of one of our permanent tables. When I do Create table..select... using this query it inserts only fewer records. But when I make the query point to the permanent table it inserts all 88k records.

1. I tried running the select query separately using temp and perm table. Both retrieves 88k records.

2. From debugging I found that this problem occurred when we were trying to perform a left outer join on an inline view.

However this problem got resolved when I used the /*+ FIRST_ROWS */ hint.

From my limited oracle knowledge I assume that it is the problem with the query and how it is processed in the memory.

JDeveloper, Java & XML :: Reading Data From Database Table That Contains Control Characters

May 1, 2011

I have the following bit of code that reads data from the an Oracle table (Note: This is running on Jdk 1.4.2)

ResultSet message = messageStatement.executeQuery(getMsgSql);
String messageData = message.getString("MESSAGE_DATA");

The data in the MESSAGE_DATA column contains text but also control characters that separate data elements in the message (i.e (char)31, (char)29) and (char)28) . What i am finding is that for some reason message.getString() is sometimes truncating the message. I can read the majority of messages but some of them are truncated. Am i supposed to be reading the data using a different method? If so how?

I have tried to use sqlplus to look at the data in the database and it is all there it is just truncated by the message.getString() method. I saw this when i tried to output the result i.e. System.out.println(message.getString()).

I ran an sql query using the length() function in Oracle and length("MESSAGE_DATA") returns 2032 whereas in java message.getString(1).length() returns 2000.

Forms :: Data Storing In Multi-record Block

Aug 10, 2013

I have a form with 3 blocks in our oracle application. Block1 is a single record block. Block2 and block 3 are multi record blocks with no of records 5. Block1 and block2 are in same canvas1 of a window1. Block3 is in canvas2 of window2. There is a relation between block1 and block2. Another relation with block2 and block3 is also available.

Now my issues is while creating a record, first i entered the data in block1 (which is a single record block). Then i entered data in five rows of second block. Then i entered data in block3(multi record block) by pressing the button in block2 (each button for each row). But before saving the entire form, when i checked the data in block3 by pressing the button of first record of block2, screen shows empty.

Code in button of block2 is as follows

show_window(WIN2');
Go_block('BLOCK3');

Code in button of block3 is as follows

hide_window('WIN2');
go_block('BLOCK2');

If post; is included in block3 button. then problem we will be solved. But we don't want to use post; as it lock the table.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Column Validation For Types And Storing Data For Subtypes?

Apr 3, 2010

I have following structures:

SQL> CREATE TYPE address_typ AS OBJECT (line1 VARCHAR2(20), city VARCHAR2(20), COUNTRY VARCHAR2(20));
2 /

Type created.
SQL> CREATE TYPE phone_typ AS OBJECT (area_cd VARCHAR2(10), phone# VARCHAR2(10));
2 /
Type created.
SQL> CREATE TYPE phone_list_typ AS TABLE OF phone_typ;

[code]...

My questions are:

1. I have created an object table person_obj of parent type. I have not created object tables of salesperson_typ and customer_typ and want to store data related to both in person_obj. What is the difference between storing data in an object table of parent type and object table of subtypes? In which case should I consider storing data of all subtypes in an object table of parent type instead of object tables of individual subtypes?

2. Second question is regarding validating the column values before the creation of object instance. Suppose before creating an instance of salesperson_typ, I want to check if salary is NOT NULL and greater than 0. I guess constructor is the only option to achieve this but how full-proof it is if constructors are used for this purpose? Is there any other alternate way?

LPAD - Reading Values From One Table And Inserting Into Another

LPAD not behaving as expected. the main thing I'm trying to accomplish here is reading values from one table, and inserting them into another... but in the "other" table, they need to be inserted as 11 characters long, with leading zeros. in it's most basic form, this is the cursor I'm using:

should have mentioned that this is Oracle 10.2.0.3, on HPUX. not sure if that matters for this issue or not, but wanted to throw that out there.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Reading Data From XML Message And Send Result To Net Using Bulk Collect

Aug 15, 2013

We want to send the following XML message as IN parameter to the procedure

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
- <s:Body>
- <CalculateWEDBCached xmlns="http://wedb.GGG.Services/Contracts/">
- <skuItems xmlns:a="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/wedb.GGG.Services.Contracts" xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
- <a:SkuItem>
[code].......

I need a procedure to get the records from the table for every SKU of XML message from the table and take one record for each SKU based on order precedence.And send the set of output records to the .net code. The order precedence is

If MODEL is not null that record should be high precedence and consider max lead_time
If MODEL and VK_UNIT is NULL then the precedence goes to STATE_ID.

The parameters in the procedure are

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE sku_proc
(
p_bu_id IN number,
p_model IN varchar2,
p_vk_unit IN XMLTYPE,
p_country_id IN varchar2,
[code].......

Query to get the data from the table based on the parameters.

SELECT bu_id,
model,
vk_unit,
country_id,
state_id,
Lead_Time,
[code].......

Here every SKU from XML message should be passed as p_vk_unit to VK_UNIT column in the query

210-39348
210-39348
210-39348
405-12132
340-30904
340-30904
340-30904
403-10890
403-10890
709-10007

Based on the above query assume we got the following records.

BU_ID MODEL VK_UNIT COUNTRY_ID STATE_ID LEAD_TIME FC
0 M123 210-39348 AB 0 20 A
0 M123 210-39348 AB 0 30 B
0 NULL 210-39348 AB 0 10 C
0 M123 405-12132 AB 0 10 A
0 NULL 340-30904 AB 0 30 C
0 M123 340-30904 AB 0 20 B
0 M123 340-30904 AB 0 10 A
0 NULL 403-10890 AB 0 10 B
0 M123 403-10890 AB 0 20 A
0 M123 709-10007 AB 0 10 B
0 NULL NULL AB 0 20 B
0 NULL NULL AB 1 30 A

Th final query has to return the following result to the OUT parameters p_Lead_Time p_FC of the procedure.

LEAD_TIME FC
30 B
10 A
20 B
20 A
10 B
30 A

XML DB :: Possible To Remove XMLSchema Restriction From XMLType Column?

Oct 24, 2012

I have an XMLType column that is validated via some XMLSchema. Now I want to remove this restriction and make it just a generic XMLType column. I tried bunch of alter table commands but I couldn't figure out the magic combination. Is this possible?

Here is the actual problem. Unfortunately, we ended up both local and global schemas using the same URL. We have customers out there with both schemas (early customers) or only global schema (new customers). Most of the tables were created before the global schema was added. So, they are referencing the local schema. Now we want to evolve our schema, and I am trying to write a sql script to clean-up this mess. if only global schema exists then (these are late customers)

- do nothingelse if both global and local schema exist then (these are early customers)
- If any table or table.column has dependency on local schema (I can find this out from user_dependencies) I am going to mark those tables/columns as no schema validated. i.e. remove all references to local schema
- delete and purge the local schema
- modify those tables/columns and make them point to the global schema end if
- evolve the schema (only global one is left)

Is there a way to modify a column definition and move its reference from local schema to global schema where both schemas have the same URL? Of course the main constraint is that we do not want to loose customer data. By the way, both local and global schemas are identical in terms of xsd.

is it possible to change XMLSchema/Element settings of an XMLType column from X to Y, X to null, or null to X?
