Calling SQL * LOADER in stored procedure

Hi Experts,
Can we call sql*loader in stored procedures? . If yes , please let me know the syntax.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

You can also use dbms_schedular to execute any shell or batch file - i guess ->
BEGIN
-- UNIX
DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_job(
    job_name             => 'unix_command_job',
    job_type             => 'EXECUTABLE',
    number_of_arguments => 1,
    job_action           => '/bin/ls',
    auto_drop            => FALSE,
    enabled              => FALSE);
DBMS_SCHEDULER.set_job_argument_value('unix_command_job',1,'/tmp');
DBMS_SCHEDULER.set_attribute('unix_command_job', 'credential_name', 'TIM_HALL_CREDENTIAL');
DBMS_SCHEDULER.set_attribute('unix_command_job', 'destination', 'marge.localdomain:65001');
DBMS_SCHEDULER.enable('unix_command_job');

Calling sql loader in sqlplus

Hi all, i am trying to load a file called text1.txt using sql loader. I am using sqlplus but i dont know how to call sql loader in sql plus.
can someone provide syntax assumming data file is text1.txt and control file is txt.clt
thanks

Why on earth? Though you forgot to include version info, assuming you are not using 9i or older, you can and should use the external table facility and you don't need this unstable and resource consuming procedure.
If you would have thought even one second about solving your own problem, you would have realized sqlloader is a separate O/S utility, which requires the host command, and username/password on the commandline.
That alone is a reason not to do it.

Calling SQL*Loader from Forms

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has called SQL*Loader from Forms?
What I am wanting to do is use Oracle Forms as the interface where you can specify a file that you can import into the database and it will use a set control file. Push the import button and SQL*Loader does the rest.
Is using Java code to call SQL*Loader from Forms a viable option, or is there an easier way to achieve the desired outcome.
Any ideas or guidance will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott.

Scott,
In forms, there's a HOST built-in command which is supposed to execute any o/s commands.
What you have to do is :
1. Bult up the string exacltly in the fashion which you will run in o/s
2. Call the HOST Built-in and pass in the string
Here's a example :
Declare
lOsCmd Varchar2(1000) := Null;
Begin
lOsCmd := 'sqlldr user-id=userid/passwd@connectStr '
|| ' control=c:\temp\abc.ctl log=c:\temp\abc.log '
|| ' bad = c:\temp\abc.log';
Host (lOsCmd, No_Screen);
End;

Issues in calling Sql Loader through forms developer (10g)

Hi,
I am developing a form(in 10g) ,in which I am calling sql loader for loading data onto a oracle database table from external source (e.g. data file is a .CSV file).
But , somehow the sql loader is not getting executed.
Here , I am giving the environment settings , approach i am taking;
This is a distributed system , both the application server,and database server are mounted on two different servers.
The form is delpoyed on the application server.
The database table , and the sql loader are configured on the databse side.
I am using host(<sql loader command>) command to invoke the Operating System command through forms.
The sql loader is working ok , and the data is getting loaded successfully onto the required database table when I am executing the sql loader command on Unix prompt , but through the forms , it's not working.
Do I need to change some environmental setting to make this work...
Any quick help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Craig,
I have already tried out the option of calling sql loader through stored procedure,but this is not working ...
could you please share any examples to do so ...
code snippet i am using in forms:
declare
usid get_application_property(userid);
pwd get_application_property(password);
db get_application_property(host);
msqlldr varchar2(250);
begin
msqlldr:='/u01/oracle/formss/bin/sqlldr' username=<uid/pwd@db> control=<control file name> data=<data file name> log=<log file name>
hosts(msqlldr);
end;
Note that sqlldr command ,for that matter any unix shell command is not working through the hosts() command ...
could you please suggest any way out ...
Thanks.

Calling SQL Loader with Dynamic file names

HI all
I woul like to know if I can call sql loader as below
$ sqlldr userid=uname/pwd control=new.ctl, data=$1
I have to schedule my loader 3 times a day and each time my file names are different(AAA_BBB_timestamp)
Thanks

I have found a solution myself and if any one is interested its like this
for file in `ls -1 /opt/user/from/`
do
sqlldr userid=user/pwd@connect_string control=control_file.ctl data="/opt/user/from//$file"

Calling Sql*Loader from oracle Form builder

How do i call sql* loader from my forms to import the external data in different formats into my existing database?
Specify the flexibility of sql* loader to import external data from .txt files or .xls files.
Would be thankful if certain examples are given along with the answer.

Hi,
1. First you have to create seperate ctl (Control files) which maps to different file formats
2. Using Oracle Forms,
2a) You can use the 'HOST' command to execute the command line ie. In this case executing
SQL*Loader script
2b) You also have the feature in ORACLE forms to read text files and load the data into
ORACLE db.
This can be achieved by using TEXT_IO package which comes with ORACLE Forms.
Hope this helps

Calling SQL Loader from Forms 4.5 using HOST command in Win2000

One of my forms calls SQL Loader 7.3 using HOST command to load a csv file onto the database(Oracle 7.3) under Windows 2000 platform.
Only after sql loader finishes its operation the control should come to my form i.e. synchronous execution.
As of now its running asynchronously.
Is there any way to make it synchronous. If Not any other work arounds?
Environment Details
Forms [32 Bit] Version 4.5.10.6.0 (Production)
Windows 2000 Operating System
Oracle7 Release 7.3.2.3.2

Forms6i running on W2000, Rdbms 8.1.7
in Forms I added a button TEST,
Trigger when-button-pressed : host('test.bat') ;
in directory .......\frm I added file test.bat :
REM ===============
cd /d C:\........\ldr
pause
sqlldr parfile=test.par
pause
type test.log
pause
exit
REM ================
now, pressing TEST button opens DOS window, telling me what's going on, running sqlldr, finally going back to forms
Are you using NO_PROMPT or NO_SCREEN option of HOST command ?
Had a look at Forms 4.5 manuals, there is no mentioning of (a)synchronously operation in connection with HOST command.

How to call SQL Script in DBMS_SCHEDULER

How to call SQL Scripts in DBMS_SCHEDULER?
Things I got working
1) Successfully created and tested a PL/SQL that was created under SQL Workshop->SQL Scripts (I named it 'TEST'). I was able to run this no problem.
2) Successfully created a DBMS_SCHEDULER that runs every minutes. (See below)
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job(
    job_name => 'myjob',
    job_type => 'plsql_block',
    job_action => 'null;',
    start_date => '19-JUL-11 03.10.00 PM', /* Remember to use the DB time, not your local time if not specifying a timezone */
    repeat_interval => 'freq=minutely',
    enabled => true);
end;The problem i am having is to make the PL/SQL script (named 'TEST') runs every minute. Its probably very easy to do that but i dont seems like finding any examples online.
I tried replacing the job_action attribute to " job_action => 'begin TEST; END;', " However, that did not work.
I am stuck here for couple hours already, any clues would be great :)
Thanks in advance

The PL/SQL is pretty long, I would like to call it from a different location rather then putting the whole coding as part of the argument. Sounds like I should be looking into procedure package in database?
I will do some more research on procedure package, how to create one and how to call from it.
Thanks

How to call SQL statements in InDesign CS6?

Hi,
My plug-in needs to interact with the database, and update the database content, how should I do, can I call SQL statements in InDesign CS6?
Thanku very much.

The same way you'd call them from any C++ program. You don't mention which platform, and that probably makes a difference.
I'm accessing an SQL database in InDesign CS6 on Windows. I'm using the ODBC interface to SQL database that Windows provides, via the nanodbc wrapper. So I'm linking to odbc32.lib and odbccp32.lib, and including the nanodbc.cpp and nanodbc.h files. (See http://lexicalunit.github.io/nanodbc/ )

Shell script to call sql script

Hi All,
I have a application server and want to make a shell script to call sql script.
Please let me know how to do the same.
Regards
Kumar

What is the platform you are using and you can give the path of the sql script in your shell script as follows
1.)first create .sql file...let it is table.sql and has the contents ...
create table test(x1 varchar2(20),x2 number(4),x3 date)
exit;
(2.) write a shell script...like table.sh in vi editor
Here login is scott/tiger@sid, or apps/apps@sid or whatever you know valid schema
echo enter the login
read login
sqlplus -s $login @table
(3.)run the script
$ sh table.sh
it will create the table in your particular schema

How to Call SQL Loader from Java ( servlet )?

We need to call SQL Loader command from Java Servlets? Any suggestions how this can be done?

Probably not the best way, but you could try using JNI to call a C function which then invokes SQL Loader via system() or exec(). I haven't done this myself though...

Calling SQL function in SQL query fails

/* blob.c
* The following C code demonstrates how to read an input file, piecewise
* (in chunks), and write it into a BLOB or LONG RAW column in the database.
* It then reads that BLOB or LONG RAW data, piecewise, from the database
* and writes it back to the OS as an output file that you specify.
* Enter the following SQL statement via SQL*Plus to create the table
* 'images_data' for use with this sample. Make sure you log into
* Oracle as a user appropriate for running this example.
* For BLOB, use the following table:
* CREATE TABLE images_data (

* image BLOB);
* For LONG RAW, use the following table:
* CREATE TABLE images_data (

During binding, strings are generally skipped. As such, you should first try replacing XMLType('?') with XMLType(?). You don't need to specify '?' because the system knows the proper type from your SQLBindParameter call.
Also, you should try replacing:
sr = SQLBindParameter(hstmt, 3, SQL_PARAM_INPUT, SQL_C_CHAR, SQL_LONGVARCHAR, 0, 0,(SQLPOINTER)3, 0, &type[2]);
with
sr = SQLBindParameter(hstmt, 3, SQL_PARAM_INPUT, SQL_C_CHAR, SQL_LONGVARCHAR, 0, 0,(SQLPOINTER)buf, BUFSIZE, &type[2]);
