Alternative for Continue Statement in 10g

Best way to write below code in Oracle 10g (as continue does not exist)
BEGIN
FOR i IN 1..10
LOOP
Dbms_Output.put_line(i);
CONTINUE WHEN i>5;
CASE
Dbms_Output.put_line(i);
END LOOP;

I thought GOTO instructions were deprecated in all programming languages since the beginning of the 21st century...Agreed, of course - GOTO is usually a red flag indicating badly written code. However I think if it's used in a well-controlled way like this, and the label is something like<tt> continue_loop</tt>, then it might be allowed ;)

How to find the tables which are the candidates for gathering stats in 10g

Hi,
In 10g how can we find the tables, partitions which are the candidates for gathering the stats.
I want to findo those tables, partitions and gather the stats on daily basis.
Thanks,
Mahi

The probem you describe has been posted about before. There are known issues with the default dbms_stats parameter settings for some environements.
What you can do is just go ahead an manually submit dbms_stats commands with appropriate parameters for tables that have not been analyzed or modify the maintenance window to give it more time.
I would rather just generate the missing statistics myself then the job can continue to run in the normal maintenance window. Since the job should be looking only for tables that meet the stale requirements then once everything is analyzed it is likely the job can keep the statistics updated in the default time allowed.
Be warned that the default parameter settings do not work well for some tables in some environments and if that proves true for your shop you can generate workable statistics on a table and then lock them so the nightly job ships regenerating the statistics for that table. You would then manually unlock, generate, and lock that statistics for that table as necessary.

Alternate for tables statement

hi friends
If i use dictionary fields in the screen i am using tables statement of that corresponding structure.
but i think tables statement is obsolete one is it right so what is the alternative for tables statement
how to move the values of fields between screen and abap program, help me
thanks in advance

Fields are moved from your program to the screen when the field names match. There is no explicit transport command needed.
I do not think that the TABLES command is considered obsolete when used in screen programming. That is the only time that I use it. There was some training material in regards to the TABLES command being required for proper transport between the program and the screen. I do not know if this has changed with 4.7.

XQuery - In search of alternatives for "ora:view"

Instead of the following XQuery statement, what could be alternatives, regarding re-writing the statement, via options like:
- xmltable
- xsql
- xpath
- table(xmlsequence())
- etc
So I am looking for alternative statements and/or an alternative for ora:view
Thanks for the effort
Marco
xquery
let $auction := ora:view("XMLType_Table") return
for $b in $auction/site/people/person[@id = "person0"] return $b/name/text()

Can anyone help me understand "Continue Statements"?

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me understand continue statements. I've been studying the java tutorials this weekend but can not get my head around the following explanation: (My thoughts are at the end of this message and it might be easiest to read them first!)
"The continue statement skips the current iteration of a for, while , or do-while loop. The unlabeled form skips to the end of the innermost loop's body and evaluates the boolean expression that controls the loop. The following program, ContinueDemo , steps through a String, counting the occurences of the letter "p". If the current character is not a p, the continue statement skips the rest of the loop and proceeds to the next character. If it is a "p", the program increments the letter count.
{code}class ContinueDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String searchMe = "peter piper picked a peck of pickled peppers";
int max = searchMe.length();
int numPs = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < max; i++) {
//interested only in p's
if (searchMe.charAt(i) != 'p')
continue;
//process p's
numPs++;
System.out.println("Found " + numPs + " p's in the string.");
}{code}
Here is the output of this program:
Found 9 p's in the string.
To see this effect more clearly, try removing the continue statement and recompiling. When you run the program again, the count will be wrong, saying that it found 35 p's instead of 9.
A labeled continue statement skips the current iteration of an outer loop marked with the given label. The following example program, ContinueWithLabelDemo, uses nested loops to search for a substring within another string. Two nested loops are required: one to iterate over the substring and one to iterate over the string being searched. The following program, ContinueWithLabelDemo, uses the labeled form of continue to skip an iteration in the outer loop.
{code}class ContinueWithLabelDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String searchMe = "Look for a substring in me";
String substring = "sub";
boolean foundIt = false;
int max = searchMe.length() - substring.length();
test:
for (int i = 0; i <= max; i++) {
int n = substring.length();
int j = i;
int k = 0;
while (n-- != 0) {
if (searchMe.charAt(j++)
!= substring.charAt(k++)) {
continue test;
foundIt = true;
break test;
System.out.println(foundIt ? "Found it" :
"Didn't find it");
}{code}
Here is the output from this program.
Found it"
Here are Woodie's thoughts........................................
1) With the first program I don't understand how the program counts the number of "p's". Like for example how it stores the number of "p's". Shouldn't it say:
if (searchMe.charAt(i) = 'p') then store it in some sort of containers??? 2) With the second program, I don't understand the test section. For example: Why does it have --? why does it have != after while and why does it have != after if?
while (n-- != 0)
                if (searchMe.charAt(j++) != substring.charAt(k++))
                    continue test;
            foundIt = true;
                 break test;Edited by: woodie_woodpeck on Nov 23, 2008 3:29 AM

Woodie, I think they're just silly "theoretical" examples... ergo don't worry too much not understanding them, coz they don't actually make a lot of sense... as you've allready pointed out there are other "more normal" control structures which achieve the same thing, and which in this case (in my humble opinion) would make for clearer, more concise, more maintainable code.
All you need to know about continue is "it means go back to the top of the loop"... If you're not comfortable using "continue" then don't.
There's more than one way to do it.
public static void main(String[] args) {
    try {
      final String s = "peter piper picked a peck of pickled peppers";
      int count = 0;
      for ( char c : s.toStringArray() ) {
        if (c=='p') count++;
      System.out.println("There are "+count+ " p's in '"+s+"'");
    } catch (Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
}Having said all that... I did use continue in anger the other day... I was reading Geometries from a shape file... the reader was throwing an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException given an "empty Feature" (ie a feature with the geospatial presence)... All I did was catch the exception and continue trying to read the new feature... the alternative would have been to rewrite the control logic of the whole reader loop... quick, simple effective... but I don't routinely build continue statements into new code... just a matter of personal taste.
Cheers. Keith.

Best practices for gathering statistics in 10g

I would like to get some opinions on what is considered best practice for gathering statistics in 10g. I know that 10g has auto statistics gathering, but that doesn't seem to be very effective as I see some table stats are way out of date.
I have recommended that we have at least a weekly job that generates stats for our schema using DBMS_STATS (DBMS_STATS.gather_schema_stats). Is this the right approach to generate object stats for a schema and keep it up to date? Are index stats included in that using CASCADE?
Is it also necessary to gather system stats? I welcome any thoughts anyone might have. Thanks.

Hi,
Is this the right approach to generate object stats for a schema and keep it up to date? The choices of executions plans made by the CBO are only as good as the statistics available to it. The old-fashioned analyze table and dbms_utility methods for generating CBO statistics are obsolete and somewhat dangerous to SQL performance. As we may know, the CBO uses object statistics to choose the best execution plan for all SQL statements.
I spoke with Andrew Holsworth of Oracle Corp SQL Tuning group, and he says that Oracle recommends taking a single, deep sample and keep it, only re-analyzing when there is a chance that would make a difference in execution plans (not the default 20% re-analyze threshold).
I have my detailed notes here:
http://www.dba-oracle.com/art_otn_cbo.htm
As to system stats, oh yes!
By measuring the relative costs of sequential vs. scattered I/O, the CBO can make better decisons. Here are the data items collected by dbms_stats.gather_system_stats:
No Workload (NW) stats:
CPUSPEEDNW - CPU speed
IOSEEKTIM - The I/O seek time in milliseconds
IOTFRSPEED - I/O transfer speed in milliseconds
I have my notes here:
http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_dbms_stats_gather_system_stats.htm
Hope this helps. . . .

Alternative for AT NEW --- ENDAT

Hello experts,
I am using field-symbol as internal table. I cant use AT NEW statement inside this loop.
Can u pls provide alternative for above control break statement.
Thanks in advance.
Zak.

Hi,
to use control break statement, first you should sort the internal table and then you use it.
Take one example:
data: begin of it9 occurs 4,
           f1,
           f2,
         end of it9.
it9 = '1A'. append it9. "Fill it9 with data
it9 = '3A'. append it9.
it9 = '1B'. append it9.
it9 = '2B'. append it9.
sort it9 by f1.
loop at it9.
     at new f1.
         write: / 'start of:', it9-f1.
         endat.
     at end of f1.
         write: / 'end   of:', it9-f1.
         endat.
     endloop.
free it9.
Hope it is helpful.

Alternative for EXEC command(Native SQL)

Hi Friends,
         While Using the EXEC command in native sql it is showing the obselete Error , Can any one help with giving the alternative for the commands for native SQl.
       Immediate

In a Native SQL statement, data is passed between the ABAP program and the database using host variables. A host variable is an ABAP variable that is identified as such in the Native SQL statement by a preceding colon (:).
Example
Displaying an extract from the table AVERI_CLNT:
DATA: F1(3), F2(3), F3(3).
F3 = ' 1 '.
EXEC SQL.
SELECT CLIENT, ARG1 INTO :F1, :F2 FROM AVERI_CLNT
         WHERE ARG2 = :F3
ENDEXEC.
WRITE: / F1, F2.
To simplify the form of the INTO lists in the SELECT statement, you can, as in Open SQL, specify a single structure as the target area.
Example
Displaying an Extract from the Table AVERI_CLNT:
DATA: BEGIN OF WA,
        CLIENT(3), ARG1(3), ARG2(3),
      END OF WA.
DATA F3(3).
F3 = ' 1 '.
EXEC SQL.
SELECT CLIENT, ARG1 INTO :WA FROM AVERI_CLNT
         WHERE ARG2 = :F3
ENDEXEC.
WRITE: / WA-CLIENT, WA-ARG1.
Native SQL supports the directly-executable commands of your underlying database system. There are other special commands that you can use after the EXEC SQL statement for cursor handling, stored procedures (procedures stored in the database), and connections to other databases.
Cursor Processing

Alternative for Open , Fetch cursor command

Hi Experts,
I am populating data from glpca table using Open Cursor statement with hold as shown below:
OPEN CURSOR WITH HOLD cur1 FOR
Select data from the purchase order header table.
SELECT runit rprctr sprctr
         racct rfarea hsl msl kostl aufnr ps_psp_pnr
          FROM glpca
         WHERE docnr IN s_docnr
           AND rbukrs = p_rbukrs
           AND rprctr IN s_rprctr
           AND sprctr IN s_sprctr
           AND rfarea IN s_rfarea
           AND budat IN s_budat
           AND kostl IN s_kostl
           AND aufnr IN s_aufnr.
Now when i try to Fetch the cursor even restricting it with PACKAGE SIZE command ( value 998), my program get struck over here for 20-30 mins or more den that & session gets out for the user at client end coz of large data. I checked the value of cursor , it was around 670-700 approx.
The query is shown below:
DO.
fetch rows from cursor depending on package size
    FETCH NEXT CURSOR cur1 INTO TABLE t_glpca
       PACKAGE SIZE p_size.
    IF sy-subrc NE 0.
      CLOSE CURSOR cur1.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
The program get struck at above fetch next cursor command.
Kindly suggest me some other way to handle or populate the data or any alternative for Cursor command.
Thanks for your consideration.
Regards
Mudit

Sorry for hijacking this thread and asking here. I am here in the forums on daily basis just reading and learning.
This got me curious and I googled and read SAP tutorial about cursors:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/fc/eb3b23358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/content.htm
also read an answer from Thomas after searching forum:
The combination with OPEN CURSOR ... WITH HOLD allows package processing of tasks that require a database commit inside the loop. A normal SELECT loop without holding the cursor would be interrupted by a commit -> short dump.
MY TWO QUESTIONs
1. In SAP tutorial it states that
"WITH HOLD addition in the OPEN CURSOR statement allows you to prevent a cursor from being closed when a database commit occurs in Native SQL"
If I don't specify any commit statements in my abap code and user cursor without the addition with hold.
Can a commit be executed anyway and I get an unwanted commit and thus an unwanted close of my cursor?
Or do they mean that "if you specify commit in native sql"?
2. Thomas says a normal select loop without the cursor holding would be interrupted. Interrupted by who? Again, it seems like there is an "unwanted" commit here? Again, can there be any commits and unwanted interrupts if I dont specify it somewhere in my code?

Alternative for select count('x') or count(*)

Hi Gurus,
I need to use select count(*) multiple times in a SP before and after deletion of rows from multiple tables. As this is an expensive method, do we have some alternative for Count(*), like selecting something from a system table or view instead?

Hi
You can know the number of rows affected by the DELETE statement in PL/SQL (if you are using PL/SQL) using sql%rowcount. So you don't really need to count the rows again after the delete took place...
If you are deleting the same rows as selected by the second count condition (older than a particular date), in fact you only need to count rows once for each table.

Well, could be a DB bug. I seem to remember that there was a bug in that area in an older version of 11g.
Or you could use jnettrace to trace the calls made by the driver to the DB. That should show you what's going wrong.

Need alternatives for my code...

Hello experts,
I am currently modifying a code where it seems it doesnt pass the data to be fetched into the variables v_usnam and v_ppnam. I checked BSAK table and there is a data on it. Anyway, when I tries to remove the AT NEW statement, it worked. But I need an alternative for AT NEW. Below is the code guys. Thanks you so much...
AT NEW belnr.
      CLEAR: v_usnam, v_ppnam.
      SELECT SINGLE usnam ppnam FROM bkpf
        INTO (v_usnam, v_ppnam)
        WHERE bukrs = p_bukrs
          AND belnr = it_bsak-belnr
          AND gjahr = it_bsak-gjahr.
    ENDAT.
    it_alv-ppnam = v_ppnam.
    it_alv-usnam = v_usnam.

If you don't want to declare an entire addtional structure as I told earlier, you can try this too.
DATA: l_index LIKE sy-tabix.
LOOP AT it_bsak.
l_index = sy-tabix.
AT NEW belnr.
    READ TABLE it_bsak INDEX l_index.
    CLEAR: v_usnam, v_ppnam.
    SELECT SINGLE usnam ppnam FROM bkpf
                              INTO (v_usnam, v_ppnam)
                             WHERE bukrs = p_bukrs
                               AND belnr = it_bsak-belnr
                               AND gjahr = it_bsak-gjahr.
ENDAT.
it_alv-ppnam = v_ppnam.
it_alv-usnam = v_usnam.
ENDLOOP.

If the continue statement does not work, then I would need to allocate a community based on every permutation possible, which is allot.
Cheers
Adam

Hi Adam,
The "continue" keyword in a route-map forces the router to look at the next route-map sequence instead of stopping in the event of a match, as per normal route-map operation.
In your example, you are making a match in sequence 10, the continue keyord will kick in and sequence 20 will be looked at, however, since you are matching on the same sequence of that prefix-list, the extra extcommunity will not be applied that you have requested in sequence 20.
To get around this and acheive what you are trying to do, you can add both RT's to your route-map in sequence 10:

As you can see, the router assigns the two RTs to that 1 prefix you are matching on.
If you are going to be adding more sequences to that same prefix-list, then yes you the "continue" keywork would work fine as the next route-map sequence would be matching on the next prefix-list sequence where it hits a match:
