Creating a table within a PL/SQL procedure

I recieve the following error:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "CREATE" when expecting one of the following:
begin case declare exit for goto if loop mod null pragma
The create statement is within the executable part of an if statement. Are we allowed to have CREATE statements within if statements?

"Are we allowed to have CREATE statements within if statements? "
Its nothing to do with IF, it applies throughout pl/sql to any DDL (data definition language).
When the procedure is compiled, oracle checks that all of your DML (data definition language) complies with your database structure. If you mess about with the structure within the procedure, this confuses the whole issue. You can do it with native dynamic sql as suggested by Ino, but will need to use execute immediate wherever you attempt to use your new table, otherwise it will not compile.

How to call a host command/program within a PL/SQL Procedure OR Block

Hello ,
I want to call a host program (in my case it is unix shell program) from within a PL/SQL
Procedure..Please let me know if you have a clue...Thanks a bunch...Ajeet

Alternatively you could create a PL/SQL procedure that wraps a Java Runtime object.
You can find an example of this in the Ask Tom column of Oracle Magazine. You can get there from OTN home page. Type "Java Runtime" into the Search Archive engine.

Creating temp table within OPEN QUERY

I am having trouble in creating a temp table within my OPEN QUERY.
How do I modify the below script to do this?
declare @sql nvarchar(max)

WHERE a.inv IN (''CR'', ''R'', ''EAT'')'
set @sql = N'select * into MS_test1
from openquery( ocles, ''' + replace (@sql , '''' , '''''') + ''' )'
exec (@sql)

OPENQUERY is designed to provide rows or to be user as target for DML.
But even when this statement would create a temporary table, then it would be out of scope.

Re : Hw to create a table and insert records using procedures

I tried to run a procedure to create tables but is givin an error message "insufficient previlages" and when i tried to run it using a anonymous block i can create the tables..so can any one help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

You don't have the privilege on creating the procedures. Hence you are not able to create tables through procedures. where as you can create table from anonymous blocks..

Read from Page Approval List Table in a PL/SQL procedure

Need help, I am new to OA Framework.
We have a requirement to validate the added requisition Approvers against some criteria.
The Approvers are added using Add approvers on the Requisition Creation page.
The source code shows: ApproverListRn.ApprListTable as the name of the table list which holds the approver names.
1) Is there a way to read the data from ApproverListRn.ApprListTable in a PL/SQL procedure?
2) How and when does this list of approvers get added to the po_approvallist_headers table? which package is used?
Please any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

1) Is there a way to read the data from ApproverListRn.ApprListTable in a PL/SQL procedure?
Using OAF, you can read the value from the table and through OracleCallableStatement you can call a pl/sql procedure passing the read value.2) How and when does this list of approvers get added to the po_approvallist_headers table? which package is used?
This is page and code specific. You will have to debug and find out.--Shiv

Create an ASCII file from pl/sql procedure

hello
I need to create a file starting from a pl/sql procedure launched by command line
I'll have my .sql file containing my procedure; I'll launch it via command line and it will create the ASCII file
In the procedure I'd like to use some stored procedures or functions
is all of this possible?

(a) compile your procedure and
(b) invoke it as well
Yes, the compiled procedure can invoke other stored procedures or functions.
To create the ASCII file, you could:
(a) use UTL_FILE supplied package in your procedure; this will create the ASCII file on the Oracle server, or
(b) have DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE calls in your procedure. When invoked from SQL*Plus, this will print out the lines on the SQL*Plus interface and you could spool it to a file on your client filesystem.

Can't create a sequence within a pl/sql block with execute immediate.

Hi All. I created a user and granted it the 'create sequence' privilege though a role. In a pl/sql block I try to create a sequence using 'execute immediate' but get a 1031-insufficient privileges error. If I grant create sequence directly to the user, the pl/sql block completes successfully. Can anyone explain this behavior? We're running 11.2 Enterprise Editon.
Thanks,
Mark

In a definer's rights stored procedure (the default), you only have access to privileges that have been granted directly, not via a role.
There are two basic reasons for that. First, roles can be enabled or disabled, default and non-default, password-protected, etc. so the set of roles a particular user actually has is session-specific. Oracle needs to know at compile time what privileges the owner of the procedure has. The only way to do that (without deferring the privilege check) is to ignore privileges granted through roles.
Second, since 99% of privilege management DBAs do involves granting and revoking roles, it's helpful that changing role privileges will never cause objects to be marked invalid and recompiled which can have side-effects on applications. DBAs only need to worry about causing problems on those rare cases where they are granting or revoking direct privileges to users.
You can create an invoker's rights stored procedure by adding the clause (AUTHID CURRENT_USER). That defer's the security check to run-time but allows the procedure to see privileges granted through roles in the current session. But that means that the caller of the procedure would need to have the CREATE SEQUENCE privilege through the role, not the owner of the procedure.
And just to make the point, dynamic object creation in PL/SQL is almost always a red flag that there is something problematic in your design. If you are creating sequences dynamically, that means that you'd have to refer to them dynamically throughout your code which means that your inserts would need to use dynamic SQL. That's not a particularly easy or safe way to develop code.

How to create a table with data in it?

I need to have a temp table in a PL/SQL procedure for processing which can hold data values from two other tables and a sequence number.
Ex:
Existing tables:
table1 (col1 varchar2(100), col2 date, col3 number20) - Has more 1Lakh rows
table2 (col1 varchar2(100), col2 date) - Has more 900 rows
New table
temp_table (col1 PRY KEY(seq1.number), col2 varchar2(100), col3 date)
Currently i have created the temp_table and inserting all the data from both table1 & table2 (which is poor). Please suggest me a way to have the temp_table created with data(atleast from table1 which has more than 1Lakh rows). Please see i need a sequence number as well.
Thanks in advance.

Creating web service from pl/sql procedure

Hello.
I need to create a web service from pl/sql procedure and i chose JDeveloper for this implementation. I have wsdl, but I never created web services. So, I created web service with document/literal message format.
But I have several troubles:
1. All element names have lower case letters.
2. The SOAP envelope must begin from words soapenv:Envelope but i have soap:Envelope.
3. And operation name has tail like "Element".
I know bad way for implement 1 and 3 points. It's a modification of java_wsdl_mapping.xml and wsdl files. But if I want to add new method to my service all changes will be cleaned. It's not critical but inconvenient to support.
But for point 3 i have no ideas.
This task is very important for me. Can somebody help me?

Create table dinamically using java sql types?

Hi! I've an application that reads an XML file. This file contains de definitions of some tables, using java sql types. For example:
<dbtable>
<dbtablename>Name of table</dbtablename>
<dbtablefield>
    <name>Name of table field</name>
    <type>java.sql.Types.VARCHAR</type>
    <length>10</lenght>
    <canNull>0</canNull>
    <isPK>1</isPK>
</dbtablefield>
</dbtable>That's a little example of one table, with one field. Is a java.sql.Types.VARCHAR (or is equivalent in int), which has a size of 10, it cannot be null and is a primary key for the table.
Now, the lenght, null, and primary keys are not problem at all. What I want to know, is how do I create de table using the java.sql.Types. I mean, I don't want to hard code:
String s = "CREATE TABLE name (COLUMN VARCHAR(10)...";Instead, I want to use some "wild cards", as are used in PreparedStatement. The idea of this is that no matter what DB I'm using, I must always be capable of creating the tables not worrying for the DB. I mean, I must be able to create the table in Oracle, SQL Server, DB2, etc., using the same XML and the same java class.
Something like:
String s = "CREATE TABLE name (COLUMN ? (10)...";
someobject.setObject(1,java.sql.Types.VARCHAR);
someobject.execute(); //create tableIs this possible? Or do I have to make a map for each DB?
Thanks a lot for your help! Dukes available!

you can provide some fields at runtime..
for example
"CREATE TABLE name (COLUMN" + arg[1] +"(10)..."
here arg is the string array passed into the main.
