SQL & PL/SQL :: Two Columns Can Have Long Datatype In Table?

Apr 27, 2010

I have question related to LONG datatype. Actually from google and get to know that one table can have only one LONG datatype when i searched for reason . i got these resons:-

With 9i (I believe) and later versions, Oracle deprecates using the long datatype in favor of the lob (clob, nclob and blog) datatypes. It is only supported for backward compatibility.

Restriction:- It can not be used in create type as an attribute of the defined type.

It can not be used in where conditions.

There can be no indexes on long columns.

Regular Expression are not possible.

long can not be returned from a stored function.

SQL can not call functions that have an attribute of type long.

And even more restrictions.

So I want to know that is only reason because of that Oracle doesn't allow us to make two Column or is there any strong reason which make it more logical Like storing of data in Row blocks or some thing else.

PL/SQL :: How To Set The Default Long Datatype

Jul 12, 2013

Query that I want to run: 

exec DBMS_METADATA.SET_TRANSFORM_PARAM(DBMS_METADATA.SESSION_TRANSFORM,'SEGMENT_ATTRIBUTES', false);

 result:  E;;45;45 ;45 ;45 ;S 45 

I am not sure but may be I need to set long size before running above query. But when I try to set long size gives below error. "The output from DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL is a LONG datatype. When using SQL*Plus, your output may be truncated by default. Issue the following SQL*Plus command before issuing the

DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL statement to ensure that your output is not truncated:"SQL> SET LONG 9999error: Unhandled SET statement:  "SET LONG 9999"

ORA-00997 / Illegal Use Of LONG Datatype

Aug 13, 2013

We also face the same in oracle 9i version. we tried to re-org some tables for performance issue.But our tables have long and long raw datatype. then we approached the traditional way i.e 1. Export tables.2.Truncate tables.3.import tables.(use ignore=y).4.check the index validation.5.gather stats. Above was successfully done in our production environment.but some application downtime is required.

Datatype Modification For Table With Huge Data

Aug 11, 2011

Below is my requirement.

Need to change the precision of a column in a existing table. Statistics about the table

* has over 130 columns
* More than 300 million records
* Column to modify is #121 which has data
* No primary key defined

Since the column has data, it is not possible to modify with a simple Alter.

Second option - create temp column in same table, update from original, put null in original, alter, update back from temp, drop the temp column. This approach is very expensive and time consuming.

Also the Column ID needs to preserved as #121.

Drop Statement On Table Taking Long Time

Sep 20, 2010

We are firing a normal Drop command on our database and the database version is 10.2.0.4.The database is running on AIX v5.The command is taking more time than usual .

When i am monitoring the session i can see that a call is being made to procedure "aw_drop_proc".Could i ask you if this is something that is taking more time than usual.

We are not having any partitions on the nested tables .We have a pack of tables and we are dropping this pack through a procedure.The pack comprises of nested tables & normal tables.To drop a nested table it is taking around 6 seconds(Table with no rows) and a normal table(With no rows) it is taking 17 milli seconds.We have a partition on Normal table.

The same operation in windows is taking very less time when compared to AIX.
