Using a variable to name a window?

Is it possible to use a user-defined variable to name a
window? I'm hoping to set up a "template" system of sorts for a
family of products, all of which are very similar. I'd just like to
name the window accordingly to the product name via a variable if
possible.

PHP Code: Using a variable to name the file in an Include

I have a series of case statements assigning a value to the
variable $theme
based on the current month. Then I have a set of files
(january.txt,
february.txt, etc.). The variable values are those file
names:
// get current month as a number
$month = date('n');
// select theme for the month
switch($month) {
case 3:
$theme = 'march.txt';
break;
case 4:
$theme = 'april.txt';
break;
[etc.]
What is the correct syntax for a PHP Include that will use
the current value
of $themes for the filename?
Thanks
Walt

<?php include('_inc/'.$theme); ?>

How to make dynamic query using DBMS_SQL variable column names

First of all i will show a working example of what i intend to do with "EXECUTE IMMEDIATE":
(EXECUTE IMMEDIATE has 32654 Bytes limit, which isn't enough for me so i'm exploring other methods such as DBMS_SQL)
-------------------------------------------------CODE-----------------------------------
create or replace PROCEDURE get_dinamic_query_content
(query_sql IN VARCHAR2, --any valid sql query ('SELECT name, age FROM table')
list_fields IN VARCHAR2) --list of the columns name belonging to the query ( arr_list(1):='name';   arr_list(2):='age';
-- FOR k IN 1..arr_list.count LOOP
-- list_fields := list_fields || '||content.'||arr_list(k)||'||'||'''~cs~'''; )
AS
sql_stmt varchar (30000);
BEGIN
               sql_stmt :=
'DECLARE
     counter NUMBER:=0;
auxcontent VARCHAR2(30000);
     CURSOR content_cursor IS '|| query_sql ||';
     content content_cursor%rowtype;
     Begin
          open content_cursor;
          loop
               fetch content_cursor into content;
               exit when content_cursor%notfound;
               begin
                    auxcontent := auxcontent || '||list_fields||';
               end;
               counter:=counter+1;
          end loop;
          close content_cursor;
          htp.prn(auxcontent);
     END;';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE sql_stmt;
END;
-------------------------------------------------CODE-----------------------------------
I'm attepting to use DBMS_SQL to perform similar instructions.
Is it possible?

Hi Pedro
You need to use DBMS_SQL here because you don't know how many columns your query is going to have before runtime. There are functions in DBMS_SQL to get information about the columns in your query - all this does is get the name.
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE get_query_cols(query_in IN VARCHAR2) AS
2 cur PLS_INTEGER;
3 numcols NUMBER;
4 col_desc_table dbms_sql.desc_tab;
5 BEGIN
6 cur := dbms_sql.open_cursor;
7 dbms_sql.parse(cur
8 ,query_in
9 ,dbms_sql.native);
10 dbms_sql.describe_columns(cur
11 ,numcols
12 ,col_desc_table);
13 FOR ix IN col_desc_table.FIRST .. col_desc_table.LAST LOOP
14 dbms_output.put_line('Column ' || ix || ' is ' ||
15 col_desc_table(ix).col_name);
16 END LOOP;
17 dbms_sql.close_cursor(cur);
18 END;
19 /
Procedure created.
SQL> exec get_query_cols('SELECT * FROM DUAL');
Column 1 is DUMMY
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> exec get_query_cols('SELECT table_name, num_rows FROM user_tables');
Column 1 is TABLE_NAME
Column 2 is NUM_ROWS
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> exec get_query_cols('SELECT column_name, data_type, low_value, high_value FROM user_tab_cols');
Column 1 is COLUMN_NAME
Column 2 is DATA_TYPE
Column 3 is LOW_VALUE
Column 4 is HIGH_VALUE
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.I've just written this as a procedure that prints out the column names using dbms_output - I guess you're going to do something different with the result - maybe returning a collection, which you'll then parse through in Apex and print the output on the screen - this is just to illustrate the use of dbms_sql.

Using a variable in an instance name

Hey all,
Simple question:
I'm trying to use a variable to call on different instance names:
var picCaller:uint=2;
material_mc.addChild(pic_""+picCaller+"");
The code in red is the issue in question. In this example, I'm trying to add a child called "pic_2", with the number two called from the variable "picCaller"
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Just for context, here is what I'm trying to do:
I have jpegs in my library and I want to add them to the stage when they're needed, so just to add one image, here is the code I have:
var pic_1=new pic1(0,0);
var image_1:Bitmap=new Bitmap(pic_1);
material_mc.addChild(image_1);
I want to put the above into a loop so that I dont have to repeat those three lines for every image in my library like so:
var pic_1=new pic1(0,0);
var image_1:Bitmap=new Bitmap(pic_1);
var pic_2=new pic2(0,0);
var image_2:Bitmap=new Bitmap(pic_2);
var pic_3=new pic3(0,0);
var image_3:Bitmap=new Bitmap(pic_3);
var pic_4=new pic4(0,0);
var image_4:Bitmap=new Bitmap(pic_4);
var pic_5=new pic5(0,0);
var image_5:Bitmap=new Bitmap(pic_5);
var pic_6=new pic6(0,0);
var image_6:Bitmap=new Bitmap(pic_6);
var pic_7=new pic7(0,0);
var image_7:Bitmap=new Bitmap(pic_7);
the variable "picNum" is the total amount of images that in the library, each one exported as "pic1", "pic2", "pic3" respectively.
var picNum:uint=7;
var picCaller:uint=1;
var picMC:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
picMC=this["pic_"+picCaller];
for (var i:int = 1; i <= picNum; i=i+1)
var "pic_"+i = new image_i(0, 0);
var image:Bitmap = new Bitmap("pic_"+i);
Thanks so much for your help.

How to use bind variable value for table name in select statement.

Hi everyone,
I am having tough time to use value of bind variable for table name in select statement. I tried &p37_table_name. ,
:p37_table_name or v('p37_table_name) but none worked.
Following is the sql for interactive report:
select * from v('p37_table_name') where key_loc = :P37_KEY_LOC and
to_char(inspection_dte,'mm/dd/yyyy') = :P37_INSP_DT AND :p37_column_name is not null ;
I am setting value of p37_table_name in previous page which is atm_state_day_insp.
Following is error msg:
"Query cannot be parsed, please check the syntax of your query. (ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended) "
Any help would be higly appreciated.
Raj

Interestingly enough I always had the same impression that you had to use a function to do this but found out from someone else that all you need to do is change the radio button from Use Query-Specific Column Names and Validate Query to Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only). Apex will substitute your bind variable for you at run-time (something you can't normally do in pl/sql without using dynamic sql)

How to use a table name in the select statement using a variable?

Hi Everybody,
I got a internal table which has a field or a variable that gets me some tables names. Now I need to retrieve the data from all these tables in that field dynamically at runtime. So could you suggest me a way out to use the select query which uses this variable as a table ?
Regards,
Mallik.

Hi all,
Actually i need some more clarification. How to use the same select statement, if i've to use the tabname in the where clause too?
for ex : select * from (tab_name) where....?
Can we do inner join on such select statements? If so how?
Thanks & Regards,
Mallik.

By the way, when I use operation "Revert to Recorded" for all nodes of my test and playback it again, I see in results that the script has passed without errors, but nothing has changed in database.

Error while using the variable name "VARIABLE" in variable substitution

Hi Experts,
I am using variable substitution to have my output filename set as a payload field value. It is working fine when I am using the variable name as fname, subs etc but channel goes in error when I am using the variable name as "VARIABLE". This is probably a reserved word but i would like to know where i can find a detailed documentation on this. Say things to note / restrictions while using variable substitution.
This is the error in the channel:
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error during variable substitution: java.text.ParseException: Variable 'variable' not found in variable substitution table: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.configuration.DynamicConfigurationException: Error during variable substitution: java.text.ParseException: Variable 'variable' not found in variable substitution table
Thanks,
Diya

Hi Zevik,
Thanks for the reply. The output file is created correctly by merely changing the variable name to something else and hence the doubt.
Below is the configuration:
Variable Substituition
VARIABLE payload:interface_dummy,1,Recordset,1,Header,1,field1,1
Filename schema : TEST_%VARIABLE%.txt
Output xml structure:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

- <Detail>
<identifier>A</identifier>
<field1>000000002</field1>
<field2 />
<field3>Doretha.Walker</field3>

I thimk my configuration is correct as it is working correctly with the variable name change, However, maybe i missed something !

Using variable coulmn name in sql function

Hi there,
I am not an expert with PL/SQL and I can not figure out how to use variable column names in my function.
My function is:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION RESET_TRIGGERS(aTrigger VARCHAR2) RETURN NUMBER IS
TEMP_ID NUMBER;
TEMP_USER_ID NUMBER;
BEGIN
SELECT 'LIMS.'||'$aTrigger'||'.NEXTVAL' INTO TEMP_ID FROM DUAL;
SELECT 'LIMS.'||'$aTrigger'||'_USER.NEXTVAL' INTO TEMP_USER_ID FROM DUAL;
IF TEMP_ID > TEMP_USER_ID THEN
LOOP
SELECT LIMS.SQ_U_FINALRESULT_USER.NEXTVAL INTO TEMP_USER_ID FROM DUAL;
EXIT WHEN TEMP_USER_ID = TEMP_ID;
END LOOP;
ELSE
WHILE TEMP_ID < TEMP_USER_ID LOOP
SELECT LIMS.SQ_U_FINALRESULT.NEXTVAL INTO TEMP_ID FROM DUAL;
END LOOP;
END IF;
COMMIT;
RETURN (TEMP_ID);
END;
What I want is that I pass a seqencename with aTrigger and that two triggers will be equal if not.
eg ifaTrigger = 'SQ_U_FINALRESULT'
than I want the triggers LIMS.SQ_U_FINALRESULT and LIMS.SQ_U_FINALRESULT_USER to be set equal.
The above function will not work, but what will?????
I hope you can help me out!
Cheers

BEx Variable Key/Name swap when used as Prompt in WebI report

Hi,
We are using Bex Variables in a Query used as a base for a BOBJ Universe and Query.
When refreshing the report the Prompt box displays the Name and Key of the infoobject (Dimension), but when selecting one of those values - moving it to the right, it brings across the Name not Key.
Our requirement is that the Key is selected value rather than the name - is this possible? And if so how?
Netweaver 2004S & Business Objects XI 3.0.
Regards,
Laurence

Ingo,
Thanks, I understand this in the background the Key is used, but is there any way to "swap" the Key and Name in the Prompt box, specifically my users want the Key to display in the right hand side of the Prompt bax when selecting, (or in the dropdown box, in the Prompt tab in WebI)
Best Regards,
Laurence

Thank you

Use a variable name within a function?

here's my function....
myInterval = setInterval (TTMO,15);
function TTMO () {
InstanceNameOfMovieClip._x -= (InstanceNameOfMovieClip._x -
_xmouse)/10;
InstanceNameOfMovieClip._y -= (InstanceNameOfMovieClip._y -
_ymouse)/10-2;
instead of using the "InstanceNameOfMovieClip" can i use a
variable name? i've tried, but it doesn't work. i also tried using
the correct hierarchy too, such as this._parent.VariableName
too.

you need to concat the linkage to the movieclip using your
string variable like this
var mcName_str = "bigBox_mc";
this[mcName_str]._x = 20;
you can use this method for looping through incrementally
named objects
for(var i:Number=0;i<10;i++)
this["mc"+i]._x = 20;
hope that helped

Using shared variables in windows 7 64 bit

Hi !
I am trying to use network published shared variables (with Labview 8.6.1) in windows 7 64 bit. I have three PCs on the network. All PC's are visible to each other. I am able to remotely log on to other PCs.
But when i run my program, the shared variables are not able to read the value over the network. The same program was working with windows XP.
I am not sure whether it is windows issue or labview issue.
Please help ASAP.

I am having the same problem with Shared Variables with LV8.6.1 and Win7 64 in a program that uses a shared variables to share in seperate loops. I was able to use a local variable instead, but would love to know if it possible to use shared variables with 8.6.1 and win7.

Hi,
The parser does not under variables directly in dml statements.u need to form a statement and the parse and execute the same...
so the soln is
Declare
lv_stmt varchar2(250);
Begin
lv_stmt := 'Delete from '| |ls_prev_table;
execute immediate lv_stmt;
-- Same is the case with the insert stmt--
End;
This should solve ur problem.
u could also give a direct call like
execute immediate 'Delete from '| |ls_prev_table ;
Note: This statement "execute immediate" holds good for oracle versions 8.x and above which makes the stmt very simple. For lower version u need to use the dbms_sql package to parse and execute the statement which has a series of statements for the same.
