Updating tables from Java Stored Procedures

"Oracle8i Tips & Techniques" says that Java Stored Procedures "should not modify any database tables" when called from Data Manipulation Language (DML) SQL (e.g. selects).
I have a need to do this.
Does any one know if I can call my Java from a PL/SQL stored procedure which is called from the DML SQL (e.g. via a function). That is to say java called from PL/SQL called from DML-SQL, or is this just hopeful thinking.
Any other Ideas?
Thanks in advance

Uh, not JNI but JNDI you asked. And use of JNI should be generally discouraged unless there is absolutely no other way (like co-located CORBA code for decoupling+speed). Can you direct me to a HOW-TO Oracle DB JVM configuration page? I want to know how to configure the internal DB JVM in a hurry.
Thank you,

  • Returning a table from a stored procedure

    hi, i need to return a table from a stored procedure and show it, and come to this, but a don't know hoy to run it, so i don't know if it is right, can anyone help me?
    uTable out objects_uptime%rowtype
    as
    begin
    select * into uTable from objects_uptime;
    end;

    well, i finally discovered how to do the trick
    this is the code for the function:
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION FN_GET_RECORDS RETURN UPTIME PIPELINED IS
    CURSOR cUptime is select * from objects_uptime;
    p refcur.refcur_t;
    temp p%ROWTYPE;
    temp2 OUPTIME := OUPTIME(null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null);
    BEGIN
    OPEN cUptime;
    LOOP
    FETCH cUptime into temp;
    temp2.OBJ_NAME := temp.OBJ_NAME;
    temp2.IP := temp.IP;
    temp2.STATUS := temp.STATUS;
    temp2.DOE := temp.DOE;
    temp2.ENABLED := temp.ENABLED;
    temp2.COMMENT00000 := temp.COMMENT00000;
    temp2.USERID := temp.USERID;
    temp2.OBJECTID := temp.OBJECTID;
    temp2.MNTID := temp.MNTID;
    pipe row(temp2);
    EXIT WHEN cUptime%NOTFOUND;
    END LOOP;
    RETURN;
    END FN_GET_RECORDS;
    and this for the auxiliar package, object and table:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE REFCUR
    as
    TYPE refcur_t IS REF CURSOR RETURN objects_uptime%ROWTYPE;
    end REFCUR;
    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE OUPTIME AS OBJECT ( "OBJ_NAME"
    VARCHAR2(255), "IP" VARCHAR2(20), "STATUS" VARCHAR2(10),
    "DOE" DATE, "ENABLED" NUMBER(10, 1), "COMMENT00000"
    VARCHAR2(1000), "USERID" VARCHAR2(50), "OBJECTID" NUMBER(10,
    1), "MNTID" NUMBER(10, 1) )
    CREATE TYPE TUPTIME AS
    TABLE OF OUPTIME
    i call it this way:
    select * from table(FN_GET_RECORDS ())
    if anyone knows how to do the same in a shorter manner, tell me please.
    thanks to everybody for the help.

  • Executing batch file from Java stored procedure hang

    Dears,
    I'm using the following code to execute batch file from Java Stored procedure, which is working fine from Java IDE JDeveloper 10.1.3.4.
    public static String runFile(String drive)
    String result = "";
    String content = "echo off\n" + "vol " + drive + ": | find /i \"Serial Number is\"";
    try {
    File directory = new File(drive + ":");
    File file = File.createTempFile("bb1", ".bat", directory);
    file.deleteOnExit();
    FileWriter fw = new java.io.FileWriter(file);
    fw.write(content);
    fw.close();
    // The next line is the command causing the problem
    Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe /c " + file.getPath());
    BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
    String line;
    while ((line = input.readLine()) != null)
    result += line;
    input.close();
    file.delete();
    result = result.substring( result.lastIndexOf( ' ' )).trim();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    result = e.getClass().getName() + " : " + e.getMessage();
    return result;
    The above code is used in getting the volume of a drive on windows, something like "80EC-C230"
    I gave the SYSTEM schema the required privilege to execute the code.
    EXEC DBMS_JAVA.grant_permission('SYSTEM', 'java.io.FilePermission', '<<ALL FILES>>', 'read ,write, execute, delete');
    EXEC DBMS_JAVA.grant_permission('SYSTEM', 'SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'writeFileDescriptor', '');
    EXEC DBMS_JAVA.grant_permission('SYSTEM', 'SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'readFileDescriptor', '');
    GRANT JAVAUSERPRIV TO SYSTEM;
    I have used the following to load the class in Oracle 9ir2 DB:
    loadjava -u [system/******@orcl|mailto:system/******@orcl] -v -resolve C:\Server\src\net\dev\Util.java
    CREATE FUNCTION A1(drive IN VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 AS LANGUAGE JAVA NAME 'net.dev.Util.a1(java.lang.String) return java.lang.String';
    variable serial1 varchar2(1000);
    call A1( 'C' ) into :serial1;
    The problem that it hangs when I execute the call to the function (I have indicated the line causing the problem in a comment in the code).
    I have seen similar problems on other forums, but no solution posted
    [http://oracle.ittoolbox.com/groups/technical-functional/oracle-jdeveloper-l/run-an-exe-file-using-oracle-database-trigger-1567662]
    I have posted this in JDeveloper forum ([t-853821]) but suggested to post for forum in DB.
    Can anyne help?

    Dear Peter,
    You are totally right, I got this as mistake copy paste. I'm just having a Java utility for running external files outside Oracle DB, this is the method runFile()
    I'm passing it the content of script and names of file to be created on the fly and executed then deleted, sorry for the mistake in creating caller function.
    The main point, how I claim that the line in code where creating external process is the problem. I have tried the code with commenting this line and it was working ok, I made this to make sure of the permission required that I need to give to the schema passing security permission problems.
    The function script is running perfect if I'm executing vbs script outside Oracle using something like "cscript //NoLogo aaa1.vbs", but when I use the command line the call just never returns to me "cmd.exe /c bb1.bat".
    where content of bb1.bat as follows:
    echo off
    vol C: | find /i "Serial Number is"
    The above batch file just get the serial number of hard drive assigned when windows formatted HD.
    Same code runs outside Oracle just fine, but inside Oracle doesn't return if I exectued the following:
    variable serial1 varchar2(1000);
    call A1( 'C' ) into :serial1;
    Never returns
    Thanks for tracing teh issue to that details ;) hope you coul help.

  • Return national language strings from java stored procedures

    Hi, all.
    How does i can return String which contains national characters from java stored procedure? I.e. convert UTF java string to national language of database. It's does not processing automatically (why?).
    declaration of procedure:
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION TestNLSString RETURN VARCHAR2
    AS
    LANGUAGE JAVA
    NAME 'test.SomeClass.getNLSString() return java.lang.String';
    SELECT TestNLSString AS X FROM DUAL;
    X
    iiiii
    OS: Windows 2000 Server
    Oracle Server version: Oracle 8.1.7.1.4

    Ok. I had a specific problem.
    I want to use java stored procedure (function) to make a connection to remote db using supplied connection parameters make some quieries there end return results in a form of structured data - object.
    I have defined an object type in a database where the function will reside. I granted execute privilege to public user on this type, made public synonyms to both, the object type and the function, so anybody connected to the same database would have an access to this functionality.
    I supposed that if I supply connection parameters for some other user but the same database when running the function, everything should go smooth. Yeah.
    My java code executed ok: it made a connection to the db with some x user, it resolved object type descriptor given (oracle.sql.StructDescriptor), but pl/sql wrapper function reported the error I've mentioned. If I executed the function giving it the connection parameters for same account as where object type was declared, everything went fine.
    My final solution is:
    Make TWO! connection in java code: 1st for ("jdbc:default:connection:"), 2nd for remote database account.
    Use first connection to construct oracle.sql.StructDescriptor
    Use second connection to retreive data from remote db

  • Passing Tables back from Java Stored Procedures

    Thomas Kyte has written (in reference to
    trying to pass an array back from a stored
    function call):
    You can do one of two things (and both require the use of
    objects). You cannot use PLSQL table types as JDBC cannot bind to
    this type -- we must use OBJECT Types.
    [snip]
    Another way is to use a result set and "select * from
    plsql_function". It could look like this:
    ops$tkyte@8i> create or replace type myTableType as table of
    varchar2 (64);
    2 /
    Type created.
    ops$tkyte@8i>
    ops$tkyte@8i>
    ops$tkyte@8i> create or replace
    2 function demo_proc2( p_rows_to_make_up in number )
    3 return myTableType
    4 as
    5 l_data myTableType := myTableType();
    6 begin
    7 for i in 1 .. p_rows_to_make_up
    8 loop
    9 l_data.extend;
    10 l_data(i) := 'Made up row ' | | i;
    11 end loop;
    12 return l_data;
    13 end;
    14 /
    Function created.
    ops$tkyte@8i>
    ops$tkyte@8i> select *
    2 from the ( select cast( demo_proc2(5) as mytableType )
    3 from dual );
    COLUMN_VALUE
    Made up row 1
    Made up row 2
    Made up row 3
    Made up row 4 [Image]
    Made up row 5
    So, your JDBC program would just run the query to get the data.
    If the function "demo_proc2" cannot be called from SQL for
    whatever reason (eg: it calls an impure function in another piece
    of code or it itself tries to modify the database via an insert
    or whatever), you'll just make a package like:
    ops$tkyte@8i> create or replace package my_pkg
    2 as
    3
    4 procedure Make_up_the_data( p_rows_to_make_up in
    number ); 5 function Get_The_Data return myTableType;
    6 end;
    7 /
    Package created.
    ops$tkyte@8i>
    ops$tkyte@8i> create or replace package body my_pkg
    2 as
    3
    4 g_data myTableType;
    5
    6 procedure Make_up_the_data( p_rows_to_make_up in number )
    7 as
    8 begin
    9 g_data := myTableType();
    10 for i in 1 .. p_rows_to_make_up
    11 loop
    12 g_data.extend;
    13 g_data(i) := 'Made up row ' | | i;
    14 end loop;
    15 end;
    16
    17
    18 function get_the_data return myTableType
    19 is
    20 begin
    21 return g_data;
    22 end;
    23
    24 end;
    25 /
    Package body created.
    ops$tkyte@8i>
    ops$tkyte@8i> exec my_pkg.make_up_the_data( 3 );
    PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
    ops$tkyte@8i>
    ops$tkyte@8i> select *
    2 from the ( select cast( my_pkg.get_the_data as mytableType
    ) 3 from dual );
    COLUMN_VALUE
    Made up row 1
    Made up row 2
    Made up row 3
    And you'll call the procedure followed by a query to get the
    data...
    I have tried this, and it works perfectly.
    My question, is what does the wrapper look
    like if the stored function is written
    in java instead of PL/SQL? My experiments
    with putting the function in java have been
    dismal failures. (I supposed I should also
    ask how the java stored procedure might
    look also, as I suppose that could be where
    I have been having a problem)
    null

    Thanks for the response Avi, but I think I need to clarify my question. The articles referenced in your link tended to describe using PL/SQL ref cursors in Java stored procedures and also the desire to pass ref cursors from Java to PL/SQL programs. Unfortunately, what I am looking to do is the opposite.
    We currently have several Java stored procedures that are accessed via select statements that have become a performance bottleneck in our system. Originally the business requirements were such that only a small number of rows were ever selected and passed into the Java stored procedures. Well, business requirements have changed and now thousands and potentially tens of thousands of rows can be passed in. We benchmarked Java stored procedures vs. PL/SQL stored procedures being accessed via a select statement and PL/SQL had far better performance and scaleable. So, our thought is by decouple the persistence logic into PL/SQL and keeping the business logic in Java stored procedures we can increase performance without having to do a major rewrite of the existing code. This leads to the current problem.
    What we currently do is select into a Java stored procedure which has many database access calls. What we would like to do is select against a PL/SQL stored procedure to aggregate the data and then pass that data via a ref cursor (or whatever structure is acceptable) to a Java stored procedure. This would save us a significant amount of work since the current Java stored procedures would simple need to be changed to not make database calls since the data would be handed to them.
    Is there a way to send a ref cursor from PL/SQL as an input parameter to a Java stored procedure? My call would potentially look like this:
    SELECT java_stored_proc(pl/sql_stored_proc(col_id))
    FROM table_of_5000_rows;
    Sorry for the lengthy post.

    Hi kkirk,
    I found the post you mentioned.Well it dates back to November 1999 - "Problem returning resultset or ARRAY from java stored proc" by Stuart Popejoy ([email protected]).Too bad, it is still not solved!!
    I am not very good at PL/SQL.However, it would still be helpful, if you could post the code here, or at my email address.
    Meanwhile, I was trying this during the week-end.There seems to be a glimmer of hope!!
    Let me know, if this makes sense :
    CallableStatement cs = connection.prepareCall("begin open ? for select * from dept; end");
    try {
    cs.registerOutParameter(1,OracleTypes.CURSOR);
    ResultSet res = ((OracleCallableStatement)cs).getCursor(1);
    while (res.next()) {
    //get the values
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStacktrace();
    However, I am getting an exception trace
    Error while executing stored procedure Invalid column type: getLong

  • Passing array from java stored procedure to plsql

    I have a java store procedure that is parsing an xml document and returning element values to my plsql application(8.1.7). I'm mapping a java.lang.String return type to VARCHAR2. However I'm running into the 4k limit when trying to return a string from java that is over 4k. Truncation of varchar returning over 4k is a known issue in 8i.
    So my next idea was to split that value of the element into 2000char and put in an array then pass that back to the plsql procedure. I know that oracle.sql.ARRAY can be converted into a plsql TABLE. But I believe you can only use the oracle.sql.ARRAY type when you are doing jdbc programming and are working with a connection.
    SO FINALLY MY QUESTION IS...
    Can anyone think of a solution that will allow me to pass over 4k of character data from my java stored procedure (not jdbc), back to my plsql app?
    Thanks.

    My understanding is that oracle 8 has a 4k limitation on any plsql function return data. A varchar can hold 32k within a function/package, but it cannot return more than 4k outside it's scope.
    Do you have an example you could share where you use the clob as a return type?
    Thanks!

  • How to get connection of the db lite from java stored procedure?

    Hello! All.,
    I have a written java stored procedures to assign sequence keys, and update some tables. The procedure is working as per our need by using the following connection information.
    try {
    int rowFetched = 0;
    Class.forName("oracle.lite.poljdbc.POLJDBCDriver");
    // connect to the database
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:polite:polite",
    "system", "manager");
    My question is, It is possible in db lite to get a default connections like we use in the enterprise database
    conn = new OracleDriver().defaultConnection();
    Could anybody please shed some light on this.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello Upi! out of curiosity if you happen to know the answer for the following, I do appreciate it.
    Hello! We are using BC/ADF JClient to select and for any DML operation against Oracle Lite database. We may have more than one user(s) log on to our application, so we requires to authenticate oracle lite user credential using JDBC dynamically.
    I am utilizing the features of JCLoginDialog.java and manipulation bc4j.xcfg file. This work real good for accepting username/password credentials dynamically, since we have multiple database in one computer I have to accept DSN name and if possible built my own configuration file.

  • No line numbers in stack trace from Java Stored Procedure exception

    I have a Java Stored Procedure which can generate an exception. In one database (11.1.0.6) the Java stack trace contains line numbers for my code, but not for the classes loaded by default with the JVM. In another database (same version) the Java stack trace does NOT contain line numbers for my code, but does contain them for some of the classes loaded by default with the JVM!
    Neither of the schemas where I am running the the Java stored procedure has a JAVA$OPTIONS tables as described here:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/java.111/b31225/chtwo.htm#BABIGFGA
    So the Java should have been compile "-debug" by default in both schemas. I specifically set the debug option to true using:
    exec dbms_java.set_compiler_option('', 'debug', 'true');
    but this had no effect.
    Can anyone explain this behavior or tell me how to always get line number in the Java stack trace?

    Hi,
    Try using java.util.logging package. Using these packages you can configure your logging information to include context down to the class name. Then each log message would be unique enough to know where it came from.

    <code>
    import java.io.IOException;
    import java.lang.Object;
    import oracle.apps.xdo.XDOException;
    import oracle.apps.xdo.template.FOProcessor;
    import oracle.apps.xdo.template.RTFProcessor;
    public class callingXMLP{
    public static String rtfToXsl(String rtfFile, String xslFile)
    try {
    RTFProcessor rtfProcessor = new RTFProcessor(rtfFile); //Input RTF
    rtfProcessor.setOutput(xslFile);
    rtfProcessor.process();
    } catch (IOException IOE) {
    return" Error "+IOE.getMessage();}
    catch(XDOException XDE ){
    return" Error "+XDE.getMessage();
    return "Success";
    public static String mergeXmlXsl(String xmlFile, String xslFile, String outputFile)
    FOProcessor processor = new FOProcessor();
    processor.setData(xmlFile); //Input XML File
    processor.setTemplate(xslFile); //Input XSL File
    processor.setOutput(outputFile); //Ouput File
    processor.setOutputFormat(FOProcessor.FORMAT_PDF);
    //start processing
    try {
    processor.generate();
    catch (XDOException e){
    e.printStackTrace();
    //System.exit(1);
    return "Error - "+e.getMessage();
    //System.exit(0);
    return "Success";
    </code>
    I then wrap this using the following function spec in pl/sql:
    create or replace function callXMLP(input1 VARCHAR2, output1 VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2
    as language java name 'callingXMLP.rtfToXsl(java.lang.String,java.lang.String) return java.lang.String';
    and
    create or replace function mergeXMLXSL(xml VARCHAR2, xsl VARCHAR2, output VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2
    as language java name 'callingXMLP.mergeXmlXsl(java.lang.String,java.lang.String,java.lang.String) return java.lang.String';
    Calling the callXMLP function works fine, and produces an XSL file from the input RTF file as expected.
    When I run the mergeXMLXSL function, it says that the function has completed successfully, but it seems to be throwing an XDOException error as it is returning "Error - null" message from the Java.
    A PDF document is being created, but it does not have any content. I have also modified the Java to create an RTF instead, but still the same thing happens.
    Is there anything that I need to check, or something that I am missing when trying to create the final PDF document?
    Please help, I am completely stuck with this now.
    Many Thanks,
    Cj

    Hello Chris,
    I have been able to create a PDF from the database. I loaded the following jar files and removed any java class that could not compile.

    I needed to copy the XML Publisher fonts to the database server and ran the following java grants, note my $ORACLE_HOME is /opt/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/
    dbms_java.grant_permission('XMLP', 'java.util.PropertyPermission', '*', 'read,write');
    dbms_java.grant_permission('XMLP', 'java.net.SocketPermission', '*', 'connect, resolve');

  • Remote execution of DTS packages from Java Stored Procedures

    I'm an Oracle 10G DBA and Linux/Unix Sysadmin looking for a Java guru to help me find a reusable template or locate a solid programming methodology (examples) that will enable me to connect via JDSI to SQL Server 2000/2005 and remotely execute DTS packages from within Oracle. I am working at office that's absolutely addicted to MicroSlop products and the DBA team cannot conceive of giving up their precious DTS packages. I've already converted their MS SQL Server 2000 database to Oracle 10G on RHEL4 via SQLDeveloper but I am unschooled in the art of java programming and would like to locate some sort of rudimentary template or examples or java class that can easily be loaded into the Oracle 10G database instance via the loadjava utility. These java classes/methods/stored procedures need to be executable from within embedded PL/SQL code and able to connect to SQL Server 2000 to execute DTS packages via passing dtsrun commands ... Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Ilford:
    Sure you can use fully package notation in your Java classes.
    Look at this Java source code:
    http://dbprism.cvs.sourceforge.net/dbprism/cms-2.1/src/com/prism/cms/core/
    All of them are Java Stored procedures.
    Best regards, Marcelo.
