Does ORACLE functions work with Oracle Database 10G

Hi,
I am wondering if ORACLE functions work with Oracle Database 10G or is it mandatory to use OCI functions?
Thanks in advance!

I was able to run a simple query with ora_* functions using 10g on Windows.
The Oracle OCI calls used by PHP's ora extension still exist in the Oracle 10g libraries
But I cannot recommend this obsolete extension.

  • Can Oracle APEX work with other databases?

    Can Oracle APEX work with other databases like Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase... etc.?

    Though, the Generic Connectivity does not cost extra.
    It doesn't have all the features of Transparent Gateway, but if you can access the foreign database with an ODBC driver,
    it's an easy way to integrate multiple databases.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14232/gencon.htm#HETER007
    In one application, I pull data into materialized views from MS Access and Lotus Notes.
    Since Apex lives in an Oracle database, it inherits all of the functionality of Oracle.
    There's not much it can't do.

    Does INNER JOIN work with Oracle 8i ?
    thanks.

    INNER JOIN syntax is introduced in 9i, it does not exists in 8i. You can rewrite your statement:
    SELECT
    A0.FULL_NAME,A0.MANAGER_ID,A0.DEPT_NO,A0.TOP_DEPT
    FROM
    HR_ORG A0
    , HR_EMP A1

  • Does Discoverer 4 work with Oracle 8.1.6?

    I have a disk for Installing Oracle discoverer 4.1.37 which I need to work with Orcale 8.1.6. When installing I am not permitted to use my Ora81 home as this is already been used by Oracle 8.1.6 production. Does this mean that I need Oracle 9i to use discoverer 4? Is there a version of discoverer available that works over 8.1.6.

    As far as I know, Dirk-Jan is correct. Discoverer uses the 'old' Oracle home structure, where 8i uses the new 'multiple home' structure. As far as I know, you will probably need to create at least an empty old-style home first, then install the database if you are going to install any products that require the old home, because by design it must be installed first. I think it is probably possible to mess around with the registry entries and switch which one it thinks was installed first, but I normally don't like playing around inside the registry that much. If you have another server, you could install the Discoverer server there, or use the workstation version. It works fine with 8.1.6 and 8.1.7.
    For that reason, we almost always install a 'stub' old home, even if it just contains an old installer entry, before we install things with new homes, just in case we need to install something that needs it.
    If Oracle has a more intelligent way of working that out, I wish somebody would post something, because it really is annoying sometimes.

  • Does iSetup up work with Oracle General Ledger R12

    Hello All,
    Please forgive my ignorance if I'm asking a dumb question. I have been tasked with loading metadata into Oracle GL R12. I was told to research iSetup. It seems as though it works with E-Business Suite. I don't believe that is the same as GL, is it? If anyone knows how to load metadata to Oracle GL that would be great too, but I'll look for the GL R12 forum to ask that questions.
    Sorry for the lame question.
    -Scott

    Hi,
    It works, of course, and that is the whole purpose of iSetup. You have to assign 'iSetup' responsibility to the EBS user and you can start using the iSetup. For more information, you can refer the user guide located here.

  • Does oracle Toplink work with oracle VARRAY ??

    Does anybody know if oracle Toplink support oracle collections such as VARRAY ?
    The Oracle Toplink workbench seems not recognize the Oracle collection type.

    The documents [http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/ias/doc_library/90200doc_otn/toplink.903/b10064/mappingi.htm#1028481] do show some examples but it is unclear when/where in your application code this example code should be placed.
    For example, let's say in my Oracle database I have a data type defined as follows:
    CREATE TYPE person_name_ty AS OBJECT (
    first_name VARCHAR2(30),
    last_name VARCHAR2(30)
    Now I want to retrieve one of these, say through a stored procedure.
    How could this be done? Where in code would it be done?
    Thanks

You need to check what the client did on his machine that caused registry to get modified?
    How does oracle ODBC works with Oracle database? Need to know all the steps involved?The connectoin from any client is initiated by a client process. This client process is supposed to get a server process to do his work. So if this is done, the client can work now with oracle .

  • Does Informatica 7.1 work with Oracle 10g?

    I found that with Oracle 10g you have to grant all DBA privileges to the repository user. This is not needed in Oracle 9i. Thats why I was getting error.
    Now it works fine.

  • Does Oracle OLAP comes with Oracle Database 10g ?

    1.Does Oracle OLAP comes with Oracle Database 10g or do we need seperate software to have this ?.
    2.If I create a Cube with Analytic work space manager the cube is going to be stored in the Database ( meaning the in the table space where OLAP is Stored).
    3. What is the difference between Analtyic work space manager and discoverer For Olap.
    Help is higly appreciated ..
    Thanks, Prasad

    One thing to point out : The OLAP option is a costed database option, so while this is automatically installed and part of your database you do have to purchase additional licenses to use this feature. You will need to check with your Oracle account manager to see if you are actually licensed to use this feature.
    If you have existing 9i OLAP cubes these can be quickly and easily migrated to 10g OLAP and the documentation explains how to do this. However, there are many new features that are part of 10g OLAP that will improve the performance of your data model that will not be enabled as part of a migration process. Based on my experiences it would be quicker and easier (depending on the size of your existing 9i OLAP cubes) to consider rebuilding your data model using these new 10g features. You should be able to export all the dimensions to XML templates from 9i OLAP and import the templates into the 10g schema and reload your dimensions.
    For the cubes you will probably want to consider using partitioning, composites and compression to provide maximum flexibility and performance for your new data model. There is more information on these features within the OLAP documentation and in the many whitepapers and presentations on the OLAP home page on OTN.
    For moving data from SQL Server to 10g OLAP much depends on the nature of the data transfer. If it is a one-off bulk data load then you could consider using the normal MS command line tools to dump the data out and transfer it to Oracle. Alternatively, you could consider using Oracle Data Integrator to manage the extraction of the SQL Server data and the data load process into Oracle 10g relational tables. If you decide to use Data Integrator this will require additional licenses.
    If you can extract the data from SQL Server to flat files you can use Oracle Warehouse Builder (basic ETL is free as part of the 10g database license) to load that flat file data via external tables. Warehouse Builder can also be used to define your OLAP data model (think of Warehouse Builder as a more powerful version of Analytic Workspace Manager) and provides tools to load the data directly into your OLAP dimensions and cubes. You can get more information on managing OLAP data models with Warehouse Builder the Warehouse Builder home page on OTN.
    There are no facilities to modify Discoverer Viewer to add customisations. You can add company logos, modify certain colors and/or hide certain features but it is not possible to add additional features. You may want to consider using BI Beans to provide this type of environment. BI Beans is the development framework used to create Discoverer Viewer. You can create customised JSP pages that look identical to Discoverer Viewer pages with the added benefit of providing your own specific features. You can get more information on the BI Beans home page on OTN.

    Please can any body tell be why this is not working. Tanx.

    You'll need to add the apex engine owner to the ACL (Access Control List). Depending on your version of apex the user name varies. i.e. 4.0 is APEX_040000
    See Joel's blog for info about the ACL and APEX.

    For database access from Java, you will use JDBC.
    For the specifics of the oracle spatial database, you'll have to check the documentation/forum of Oracle.

  • DATEDIFF function work in Oracle database or not ?

    Hai all,
    I like to know whether DATEDIFF function work in Oracle database or not.

    And to add to what Stew and Ranit have said... if you need the months between two dates, there's a special function for that...
    SQL> select months_between(sysdate, date '2011-04-18') from dual;
    MONTHS_BETWEEN(SYSDATE,DATE'2011-04-18')
                                    18.37051So, number of years between two dates can also be achieved with the same function and dividing by 12...
    SQL> select months_between(sysdate, date '2011-04-18')/12 from dual;
    MONTHS_BETWEEN(SYSDATE,DATE'2011-04-18')/12
                                     1.53087867

    We have an ASP application running on Windows 2000 server, and with 8.1.7 Net8Client and MDAC 2.6 SP1.
    The application worked fine with an Oracle 8.0.5 database.
    After upgrading oracle database to 8.1.7.0.0, our ASP application works fine except when updating the same data record more than once. The application is not saving our updates.
    We tested our application using Oracles ODBC driver v8.1.7.5.0
    and experienced more problems. We had problems just bring up our data entry pages. In either case, we are returned with some 505 errors in our browser, problems with the ASP pages and IIS, the page is not displaying.
    If anyone has some suggestions on how to fix my problem, please advise. Thanks in advance.

    thanks...i saw one article with this approach..but the document did not present the detailed process...do you have one? i am still searching for a good procedure to follow...since it is an old database and focusing/studying old versions like this is a pain in the a**... :(
