Incorrect Number of rows returned from Toplink

Hi,
Lets say I have hierarchy as :- A has bCollection and cCollection. I write a readobjectquery for A and specify both bCollection and cCollection as joinedAttribute and provide filter criterion for A which gives unique record.
The data is setup in such a way that there are two instances of B for given condition and 4 of C.
When I query with filter condition for B, i get correct collection size for both B and C. But if I I introduce a filter condition for bCollection, the very first record of cCollection is getting stripped off. But I do see the same if I execute the query that Toplink fired. This is really weird as just the first record is missing.
Did anyone ever faced similar probelm ? (record count mismatch from toplink query and toplink objects ?)
TIA
Ani

Hello Ani,
When you say "But I do see the same if I execute the query that Toplink fired", do you mean you see the correct results if you execute the SQL on your database or that you see the same results TopLink gives you? Also, what version of TopLink are you using and have you applied the latest patchset?
Best Regards,
Chris

How do you limit the number of rows return from query?

How do you limit the number of rows return from query? Do all databases support this kind of feature?

i think the standard is limit
to get the top 30
select * from mytable LIMIT 30;returns the first 30 rows
also if you want a range
select * from mytable LIMIT 10,30;returns 30 rows starting from 10
this last one is useful for displaying ranges... something similar happens in these forums when viewing topics and messages

Getting the number of rows returned from ResultSet

Hi,
Does anyone know a method to get the number of rows returned with a query using the Resultset class?
Thanks.

Hi 281080,
If your database and JDBC driver support it, in order to use the solution that da-alexj has suggested, you need to create a 'scrollable' "ResultSet" -- the javadoc for method "createStatement()" (in class "java.sql.Connection") has more details.
However, I have found with Oracle 8.1.7.4 database and Oracle (thin) JDBC driver, that part of their implementation of the "last()" method (in class "java.sql.ResultSet") is to actually iterate through the entire "ResultSet" in order to reach the last row. If your "ResultSet" is very large (I tested it with a 100,000 row "ResultSet"), this will take a long time.
Just wanted to make you aware of that.
Of-course, this may be irrelevant to you since I didn't see any mention in your post of what database and JDBC driver you are using.
Hope this has helped you, anyway.
Good Luck,
Avi.

Wish to find out number of rows returned from query

hi,
is it possible to determine how many rows have been returned after a query has been executed?
thank you.

It doesn't seem like there is a method to do it for you, [...]There can't be such a method that's guaranteed to work for all databases. Many databases just hand you a cursor with the query results, and you have to walk the cursor to find the complete set. It's even possible for the DB to continue computing the query in the background and just give you a cursor to walk and consume what it has already generated.
So no, you have to walk the result set (effectively pulling everything over to the client) to count the number of rows..

Is it possible to count the rows returned from a query?

Hello,
When using JDBC is there anyway of finding out the number of
rows returned from a query before actually getting each row?
In Forms 4.5 you can use the count_query function, does anyone
know of an equivalent function or work around in JDBC and/or
SQLJ?
Thanks.

Thanks for the advice, I'm currently using SELECT COUNT(*) but
I'm looking for a more efficient way of doing it. If I SELECT
COUNT each time then I have to prepare and execute a SQL
statement each time. What I want to do it execute a single SQL
statement to return my results and somehow find out the number
of rows in the resultset without having to go back to the
database.

Number of rows returned in a query

Is there a way to get the number of rows returned from a query without itterating through the itterator?
Thanks,
Yon

No.
Because rows are not all returned until you start interating.
Some times I have seen people do a count query before the normal query, this helps out if you need a count to set things up.

Can u find (number of rows) + (SELECT * FROM emp) in 1 query?

We have a requirement like this: We need to pass a SQL statement as a SYS_REFCURSOR OUT variable from a SP. Problem is, if the SQL returned 0 rows we have to send 1 row with all NULLS to the SYS_REFCURSOR.
Is there any way to find out the number of rows returned from a SQL without having to put a SELECT COUNT(*) again using the "same" SQL?

Peter:
That only works if the cursor actually returns rows. Consider:
SQL> create table t as
2 select rownum id, to_char(to_date(rownum, 'J'), 'Jsp') descr
3 from user_objects
4 where rownum <= 5;
Table created.
SQL> insert into t select * from t;
5 rows created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> create function f (p_id in number) return sys_refcursor as
2     l_cur sys_refcursor;
3 begin
4     open l_cur for
5        select id, descr, count(*) over() cnt
6        from t
7        where id = p_id;
8     return l_cur;
9 end;
10 /
Function created.
SQL> var cur refcursor
SQL> exec :cur := f(1);
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> print cur
        ID DESCR             CNT
         1 One                 2
         1 One                 2
SQL> exec :cur := f(42);
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> print cur
no rows selectedSince the OP's requirement (or ""solution" coming from someone who misunderstood the concept of cursors") is that "if the SQL returned 0 rows we have to send 1 row with all NULLS to the SYS_REFCURSOR" the analytic count doesn't help.
@OP
The only reliable (for certain definitions of reliable) way would be to consume the first row of the cursor to see if it did in fact return any rows.
However, if the cursor was initally empty, we then need to generate a new cursor with all NULLS to satisfy the request. Not a big deal, as the new cursor would reflect the state of the database at the time of the initial query, even if a qualifying row was inserted and committed between the first query and the second, but it doesn't work the other way around.
If I consume the first row and find a record, then I need to re-do the query to get all of the rows. but what happens if another process changes/deletes the qualifying row in between and commits? The second query will have no rows and you will return an empty cursor to the caller.
Also, counting the rows (which the analytic count will need to do) could have a significant impact on performance since all the qualifying rows need to be read before the first row can be returned.

How to Customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report

Hi,
I've been trying to customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report.
First i followed the instructions in Note:183131.1 -
How to Customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report
But of course the OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL in this solution did not work (in a portlet) and i found the metalink document 228620.1 which described how to fix it.
So i followed the "fix" in the document above and now my output is,..
"Portlet 38,70711 responded with content-type text/plain when the client was requesting content-type text/html"
So i search in Metalink for the above and come up with,...
Bug 3548276 PORTLET X,Y RESPONDED WITH CONTENT-TYPE TEXT/PLAIN INSTEAD OF TEXT/HTML
And i've read it and read it and read it and read it and can't make heads or tails of what it's saying.
Every "solution" seems to cause another problem that i have to fix. And all i want to do is customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report. Please,...does anyone know how to do this?

My guess is that it only shows the number of rows it has retrieved. I believe the defailt is for it to only retrieve 50 rows and as you page through your report it retrieves more. So this would just tell you how many rows was retireved, but probably not how many rows the report would contain if you pages to the end. Oracle doesn't really have a notion of total number of rows until the whole result set has been materialized.

How to get number of rows return in SELECT query

i'm very new in java, i have a question:
- How to get number of rows return in SELECT query?
(i use SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC and everything are done, i only want to know problems above)
Thanks.

make the result set scroll insensitve, do rs.last(), get the row num, and call rs.beforeFirst(), then you can process the result set like you currently do.
         String sql = "select * from testing";
         PreparedStatement ps =
          con.prepareStatement(sql,ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
         ResultSet rs = ps.executeQuery();
         rs.last();
         System.out.println("Row count = " + rs.getRow());
         rs.beforeFirst();~Tim
NOTE: Ugly, but does the trick.

TELL ME HOW MANY ROWS YOU HAVE IN TABLE?
Because you have only *6 rows* in you column, if you less than 10 rows then it displays only containied/exist rows. nothing much
select ename,empno from emp where rownum < 10;Thanks

Can I limit the number of rows returned on a Select?

Can I limit the number of rows returned on a Select statement? I would be using JDBC in a Java program.

Use Java prepared statements with the equivalent of this SQL*plus script:
VARIABLE n number
EXEC :n := 3;
SELECT rownum FROM all_objects WHERE rownum <= :n;
    ROWNUM
         1
         2
         3
EXEC :n := 5;
SELECT rownum FROM all_objects WHERE rownum <= :n;
    ROWNUM
         1
         2
         3
         4
         5

Limiting number of rows returned by SQVI

I've created a query in SQVI and I need to limit the number of rows returned by the query. (I'm using the query as an exploratory tool, and it's not easy to predict how many records will be returned based on the selection fields I'm using.)
Is there any way to add a 'Maximum No. of Hits' field to the SQVI selection screen similar to what is found when using SE16?
Thanks,
Bob

It's not surprising that you are confused because the documentation doesn't bother to explain what the "fetch size" actually is, it just says that setFetchSize sets it and getFetchSize gets it. As I understand it from some other documents I read about JDBC, the fetch size is a number that may be used internally by the JDBC driver. Here's an example of how I understand it (others, I know you will feel free to correct me if you disagree):
When the driver produces a result set with a very large number of records, it has to generate those records and deliver them to the system that requested them. If the database is not on the same system, then those records must all travel over the network. It could be a performance problem if you had to wait for (say) 80,000 records to travel across the network. Enter the fetch size. If you set the fetch size to 100, then the driver will bring the records across in batches of 100, as the program calls for them. Now, this buffering is transparent to your program; the driver doesn't tell you that it's getting another batch and you can't tell it to get another batch. So it is not a solution to the problem that everybody has here, namely how to display your records 10 per page and allow the user to go back and forth among those pages, like search engines do.

Question about number of rows returned in PL/SQL , SQL

The Child Table has 3 Million plus records, but the loaded table only brings back
approximately 1.2 Million records. Is there anything on the Oracle side that would limit the number of rows returned.

Would it be possible to post a test case that explains what you're seeing? It sounds like you are indicating that
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM <<some table>>returns 3 million rows. When some process goes to load a Teradata table by extracting all the information from this Oracle table, the Teradata table ends up with only 1.2 million rows. Is that correct?
If so,
- What is the ETL process?
- Is it possible that the ETL process is encountering an error midway through?
- Is it possible that the ETL process is extracting a subset of the data through a WHERE clause?
- Is the ETL process logging in as the same Oracle user you're using to do the COUNT(*)?

Restrict number of rows returned in a report

Hi All
Does anyone know how to restrict the number of rows returned in a report eg. I want to do a couple of reports based on opportunities/products and return only the top 5 or 10???
