ANSI Standard Join with Nested Table

Does anyone know how to (or whether you actually can) use ansi standard table joins with nested tables.
Non-ansi standard would look something like this
SELECT e.empno
FROM departments d, TABLE(d.employees) e
WHERE d.deptno = 10;
Where d.employees is a nested table.
But if I try ansi-standard I like such:
SELECT e.empno
FROM departments d
JOIN TABLE(d.employees) e
WHERE d.deptno = 10;
I get
ORA-00905: missing keyword
because I have nothing to join it on.
Your help is very much appreciated

Both replies worked fine.
I think I will go with the NATURAL JOIN as it seems the cleanest option.

Outer join with nested tables

I am dealing with a nested table (I simplified the case
for purpose of posting):
CREATE TABLE boris_main_tab (
IND_SSN          VARCHAR2(9) PRIMARY KEY,
children          B_CHILDREN_TBL,
) nested table children stored as....
where B_CHILDREN_TBL is defined like this:
create or replace type b_children_type as object (
     child_ssn               VARCHAR2(9),
     child_first_name          VARCHAR2(20),
     child_last_name          VARCHAR2(20),
     child_dob               date
create or replace type b_children_tbl as table of b_children_type;
if I want to display person's ssn along with his/her children information I do like this:
SELECT m.ind_ssn, c.child_ssn, c.child_first_name
FROM boris_main_tab m,
TABLE(m.children) c
This is a statement I can find everywhere. But there is a caveat here, they
forgot to mention. This is really an inner join, so I don't get childless
people. Can you, guys, help me with the outer join syntax?
I mean, of course, I found the obvious solution to make this inner join
into a view and then join it with the boris_main_tab again this time using the
regular outer join syntax. But it seems to me there has to be something simplier than that.
But I can't find it. It really hurting me, since I have a few nested table
columsn and people want to see the records where I need to mention a few of
them, sort of like
from boris_main_tab m, TABLE(m.children) c, TABLE(m.spouses) s
where c.child_last_name <> m.spouse.last_name
in cases like this the fact that EACH of these joins is inner join really
hurts the logic.
Respectfully,
Boris

Hi Borris,
Found the following in the Oracle Documentation under: Oracle8i Application Developer's Guide - Object-Relational Features Release 2 (8.1.6)
2 Managing Oracle Objects / Using Collections / Collection Unnesting
URL: http://www.znow.com/sales/oracle/appdev.816/a76976/adobjmng.htm#1002885
Oracle8i also supports the following syntax to produce outer-join results:
SELECT d.*, e.* FROM depts d, TABLE(d.emps)(+) e;
The (+) indicates that the dependent join between DEPTS and D.EMPS should be NULL-augmented. That is, there > will be rows of DEPTS in the output for which D.EMPS is NULL or empty, with NULL values for columns
corresponding to D.EMPS.

Join two tables to one recordset with nested table?

Hello all!
I want to "de-normalize" two tables into one for presentation reasons. For example:
CREATE TABLE foo(id number)
CREATE TABLE bar(foo_id number, value varchar2(4))
And with some data:
FOO:
1
2
BAR:
1, 'gaz'
1, 'boz'
2, 'blah'
Now I want to create a view that holds the value of the BAR table in a nested table, if possible and efficient enough..
VIEW:
1, nested_table('gaz,'boz')
2, nested_table('blah')
Any clue for creating such a view? I would prefer a view, because this view will be joined with other tables later.
Thanks in advice!

There is no limit to the number of tables you can outer join as long as you join them correctly.

/I would like to make exchange partition using stage table, and everything is going fine on all tables, but only on a few of them (listed source is one of them, and they're only tables with nested tables wihin), where I get an error.. but sometimes ;)
on a statement like:
ALTER TABLE IS_PODACI245_ARH EXCHANGE PARTITION P_201106 WITH TABLE IS_PODACI245_STAGE EXCLUDING INDEXES WITHOUT VALIDATION;I got an error:
ORA-00001: unique constraint (TXV.SYS_C0032911) violated
it's an unique index between parent and nested table.
what could cause that problem?

Dear,
I suppose that the unique constraint
ORA-00001: unique constraint (TXV.SYS_C0032911) violatedis the one you 've created on the nested table IS_PODACI245_STORE_TABLE
If so, why not disable that constraint and try again.
I have never exchanged such a kind of partitioned table having a nested table in it. But, I could imagine that the cloned non partitioned table IS_PODACI245_STAGE should at least be the exact image of the partitioned table IS_PODACI245_ARH (of course without the partition part) but with the nested table part and including all indexes
In addition, if you have a parent/child relationship between your partitioned tables, then there is a chronological order of exchange starting by the child and then finishing by the parent
see the following link for more information about this order of exchange (and comment 2 for an example also)

Problem when expanding Tree - Tree with nested table column

Hi, i have created the tree using the Tree with nested table column.
I have created a node called TREE_ROOT in the context.
This node has few attributes which includes children_loaded, is_leaf, is_expanded.
I have created the recursive node TREE_SUB for the above node TREE_ROOT.
In the view, i have created the table with the master column. The above attributes have been mapped accordingly. I have created the action handler for load_children.
In this action handler method, i receive the context_element correctly. In this method, i determine the children of the selected element and the resulting children are attached to this context_element.
But the problem is: when i add elements to context_elements in the method load_children, these
elements get added to the node TREE_ROOT as well.
Please help.
thanks and best regards,
Pramod

Fill datagridview with Nested Table Object Type ???

Hello everybody, please you help me resolve my problem?
I follow this example: *(A Sample Application using Object-Relational features)* http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/appdev.101/b10799/adobjxmp.htm
And this tutorial: *(Using Oracle User-Defined Types with .NET and Visual Studio)* http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/hol08/dotnet/udt/udt_otn.htm
Now I have 3 Object Table: Stock, Customer and Purchase Order. With the tutorial it's OK to show the data of Stock and Customer Table [there is no nested table in], but I can't do this with table Purchase Order, the tutorial don't show how to work with Nested Table type [Missing or something ?]
When I try to display the data of table Purchase Order, I get the error:
typeName='LINEITEMLIST_NTABTYP'' is not specified or is invalid*
Follow the tutorial, I generate custom class for this UDT and get another error:
this.STOCK_REF = ((object)(Oracle.DataAccess.Types.OracleUdt.GetValue(con, pUdt, "STOCK_REF")));*
Argument Exception Unhandle: Object attribute is not mapped to a custom type member.*
Can You show me how to do this ? Show the data of the Nested Table in Visual Studio, do I have something wrong ??? Thanks and Best Regards.

I think you need to go through the tutorial more carefully. I think you are missing steps.
You are using a REF. Are you creating an object table for the objects to be stored in? Are you dereferencing the REF? This is covered by the Oracle by Example tutorial.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/hol08/dotnet/udt/udt_otn.htm#t11
When you receive the nested table, it will be inside a .NET class. You can create this class by using the Create Custom Class menu item on the nested table type in server explorer.
This class will contain a ToString method and a ToXML method.
The question is, where are you attempting to display the data from this nested table? In a grid?
Does it make sense to display a nested table inside one cell of a grid? No. You would need to construct a special UI that will show the
nested table. Maybe the user clicks on the cell on the grid, which opens a new grid that displays the data. Or maybe there is a second grid on the form that always shows the nested table for the row that the first grid currently has selected.
I realize I am not providing you the code... but it sounds like you need to design a more sohisticated UI than what the tutorial is using -- one that can handle displaying one additional table per row.

Trying to UNION two views with nested tables

I am using Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Prod, and my objective is to generate some XML. What I have been doing in the past, is to create a view, and then pass that view to the DBMS_XMLQuery routine. This gives me a CLOB that I pass along to the application. A typical object would be something like:
create or replace type XML_UGroup_Member_Type as object (
     username          varchar2(128),
     group_key          varchar2(128));
create or replace type XML_UGroup_Member_List
    as table of XML_UGroup_Member_Type;
show errors
Create or replace type XML_UGroup_Type as object (
     Group_Space     varchar2(32),
     group_key     varchar2(128),
     group_name     varchar2(255),
     members          XML_UGroup_Member_List);
/This particular application will be doing stuff with group information. Pretty simply types - a group with a name and a few other keys, and a list of members. A sample view would be like:
create or replace view xml_department_ugroup_view of xml_ugroup_type
with object identifier ( group_key ) as
Select 'Department',
      'Department:' || orgn_code,
      'Department_' || orgn_name
      cast ( multiset (
           select Username, person_id,
                    'Department:' || effective_orgn
            from directory_master dm, logins l
           where effective_orgn = dd.orgn_code
             and dm.person_id = l.owner)
            as XML_UGroup_Member_List )
         as members
   from directory_departments dd
where dept_include = 'Y';
can select from this view, and I can pass it to the DBMS_XMLQUERY package and get a nice XML document. What I want to is essentially put several of these views together, like
Select * from XML_Department_Ugroup_View
Union
Select * from XML_Portfolio_Ugroup_View;But UNION does not work with nested tables:
ERROR at line 1: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got SIMON.XML_UGROUP_MEMBER_LIST
What I was hoping to do, was to develop a set of sub views for each of the group "spaces", and then generate a view/object that includes all of the sub views, and be able to operate with that single object.
Thoughts on how to make this work, or on alternate approaches? I have considered calling XMLQuery on each of the sub views and concatenating the XML documents and returning that to the application, but I was hoping to find a more "unified" approach.

I modified my approach a bit - I changed the base views to return an XMLType object, like:
create or replace view xml_portfolio_ugroup_xml
as
Select XMLElement("group",
         xml_ugroup_type(
      'Portfolio',
         'Portfolio:' || coas_code || ':' || orgn_Code,
      cast ( multiset (
           select Username,
            from directory_master dm, logins l
           where ( effective_orgn, effective_coas ) in
           where effective_orgn = dd.orgn_code
              and dm.person_id = l.owner
            as XML_UGroup_Member_List ))) as grp
   from directory_departments dd
where dept_include = 'Y';and then I combined them with something like the following (I expect to adjust this as I learn more about the XML DB support)
create or replace view xml_ugroup_xml as
select xmlconcat(
     (select xmlagg(grp) from xml_department_ugroup_xml),
     (select xmlagg(grp) from xml_portfolio_ugroup_xml)
     ) as GROUPS
     from dualand as I define more group branches, I can add them into the XMLConCat stanzas. I am still open to suggestions as to ways of doing this better or cleaner, but this at least gets the project moving forward again.

Case statement resulting into Left outer join with other tables

Hi All ,
I am facing a stuation where a Case statement on one of the logical columns in Answers is resulting into a left outer join with a table in the query.
If we remove the case stmt, the table is not being acessed.
The case stmt is a simple one and no other logical column is being accessed in the case stmt.
Please advice .
Thanks.

Hi Sai,
No ..we dont have any left outer join ...its just that I am selecting measure from F1 which has a confimred dimension D1 with F2.Now when I dont have case stmt on measure from F1(Case stmt is something like : CASE WHEN "- P table"."P Column" = 'Y' THEN 'Right' ELSE 'Wrong' END), then it doesnt query F2.
However as soon as I introduce the case stmt ,the query creates a left outer join with F2.
Thanks.

if i execute only query on the fact table it is giving correct results.when ever i join with bridge tables it is returning lot of duplicate records.
Ex:
select amount from fact where column = 'xyz'
100
then it is returing one record.(this value is correct)
when ever i join this fact table with bridge table then it is returning duplicate records.
select a.amount from fact inner join bridge table b on a.fk=b.fk
100
100
100
100
100
how many number of fk's associated that many 100's are generating
in this case it is returning duplicate records.
in the RPD i have joined like one to many between fact to dimention.
if anybody face this type of situation please let me know how to resolve this?(FYI...i would have to do this before BM..because lot of other thing are coming into picture on BMM that's why i should have to achieve this in either physical or in database.
Thanks in advance

I understand what you say but partially.. please explain in more detail how to do that;
How should look the adrese_nezonate block, then? I have to add a 'name' column and set copy value from item property to 'STREETS.NAME', and database_property No?
Then the post-query trigger how should look like (the order by clause)? The post-query sends the entire query (with where/order by clauses) to the server, but in that "select... where... order by" (built dynamically) there are only columns from that block (adrese_nezonate). I need to join with streets, INSIDE that query.
Thanks.

Join with another table in pre-query

Hi,
We have a large data block and we need to order some columns based on street name for example, not id. The base table of db block contains an id_street column, and 'streets' table contains id and name.
Ok, in pre-query trigger of that block, we have a complex logic and we dynamically build the where clause. At the end, we set the order_By clause of the block, to order the rows, for example we need to order by the 'my_date' column asc (it's a date type column), and street desc; but street NAME, not id. We don't want to use a from clause query, because the dynamically where clause logic it's complex.
How can we join the db block table with 'streets' table in pre-query, so when constructing the order by clause to specify something like
set_block_property('ADRESE_NEZONATE', order_by, 'my_date, name desc');where 'name' is the name of the street, from the 'streets' table.
Is it possible in pre-query, somehow? Or, in my case where can I join with that table and use that column in pre-query at setting order by?
Thanks!

How to join PLSQL nested table with normal tables ?

my requirement is to delete the rows in a normal oracle table in one statement, based on the values collected in a PL/SQL nested table which is filled by another program.
In the following example, i need to delete the rows in
the table c_journals where the columns branch_code and
id are having values which exist in the PL/SQL
nested table's columns a and b respectively
declare
type test_type IS RECORD (a VARCHAR2(20), b number(20));
type test_table is table of test_type index by binary_integer;
test_object test_table;
cnt number;
begin
test_object(1).a := '1000';
test_object(1).b := 1;
test_object(2).a := '1006';
test_object(2).b := 4;
/* to be completed */
delete c_journals where ....
end;
Is this possible in Oracle ? Iam using the version 9iR2
Thanks in advance

Both of the following delete statements should work. For the second the two types need to be created as database objects.
declare
type test_type IS RECORD (a VARCHAR2(20), b number(20));
type test_table is table of test_type index by binary_integer;
test_object test_table; -- := test_table(test_type('1000',1), test_type('1006',4));
cnt number;
begin
test_object(1).a := '1000';
test_object(1).b := 1;
test_object(2).a := '1006';
test_object(2).b := 4;
for i in test_object.first .. test_object.last loop
    delete from c_journals cj
    where test_object(i).a = cj.branch_code
     and test_object(i).b = cj.id;
end loop;
end;
create or replace type test_type IS object (a VARCHAR2(20), b number(20));
create or replace type test_table is table of test_type;
declare
test_object test_table := test_table(test_type('1000',1), test_type('1006',4));
cnt number;
begin
delete from c_journals cj
where exists (select 'x' from table(cast(test_object as test_table)) t
     where cj.branch_code = t.a and cj.id = t.b);
end;
