Thanks
Vishal

You can create two different files which has sqlldr command defined....
1. loader.sh
2. loader.bat
and in the depending on the OS execute one...
         String command = "";
         if(System.getProperty("os.name").equals("Windows 2000")){
                //if os is windows 2000 then execute bat file
                 command = <<bat file path>>
          }else{
                  command = <<shell path>>
          Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
          Process p = rt.exec(command);
          int i = p.exitValue();

Calling oracle SQL Loader from java program

Hi,
I want to insert data into oracle tables from a text files containing fixed length fields. I am using SQLLoader to achieve this. The requirement is to call the SQLLoader within the java program.
Does anyone know how to call SQL Loader from java program?
Thanks,
Varsha

Simply "exec" the sqlldr program with the parameters you need to pass to it.
Runtime.exec (........)
Try to pass all parameters needed including the username and password, and use the option "silent" to avoid output, and the option "log" to have a log file of the modifications that sqlldr has done to the database.

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?
Thanks
Rahul

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*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;

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

How to Call .XDO file From Java Program

Hi,
I have developed a report in using BI Publisher version 10.1.3.
I created the report and it only created XDO files. If I want to call XDO file from Java program how I can do that.
What are the APIs available to do that.
Thanks
-Ashutosh

Hi,
the JavaAPI didn't work with the xdo-Files. But you can create a proxy stub for the Web Service API of BI Publisher which uses the xdo's in the repository.

Calling SQL Loader in Java

I am writing a Java application running on SUN Solaris to perform data feed from a number of csv files to ORACLE. I am to use SQL Loader to perform the loading. What I need is to kick off the SQL Loader in my code. My question is how to kick off the SQL Loader in Java.
One of option I am thinking is using RunTime.Exec(). Is the following code workable?
runtime.exec( "sqlldr CONTROL=foo.ctl, LOG=bar.log, USERID=scott/tiger" );
Althernatively should I write a Oracle store procedure to call the SQL Loader and Java call the store procedure?
Any thoughts and directions are welcome!
Regards,

Hi,
Can't you achieve the same thing using this
Class.forName("Driver");
Connection ocon=DriverManager.getConnection("url");
Once you have ocon then you can execute any query.
If this is not what you want,can you explain what SQLLoader means here?
Regards

Calling SQL*Loader from OCCI

Hi All,
I need to access SQL*Loader from C++.
I know there is an interface for OCI to access SQL*Loader.
I also know there is a gnu project of a c++ wrapper to the OCI-SQL*Loader interface (odpd).
According to the OCCI documentation it is just a C++ facade of OCI (with some goodies like thread managing , etc.).
I want to know the following:
1. How can I operate OCI from OCCI?
2. Are there are source samples of operating OCI from OCCI or even better operating OCI SQL*Loader interface from OCCI?
3. Are there are any known (/unknown :-) ) problems with either OCCI access to OCI or OCI interface itself to the SQL*Loader?
Thanks,
Arik

Hi,
If you have a OCCI application and you want to interoperate with OCI, you can retrieve the underlying OCI handles from OCCI objects and write OCI code.
e.g :-
//with Environment env, Connection conn OCCI objects
OCIEnv *ocienv = env->getOCIEnv();
OCISvcCtx *ocisvc = conn->getOCISvcCtx();
//use OCI calls
OCIError *errhp;
OCIHandleAlloc (ocienv, &errhp, OCI_HTYPE_ERROR,...);
OCIHandleAlloc (ocienv, &dpctx, OCI_HTYPE_DIRPATH_CTX,..);
err = OCIDirPathLoadStream(...);
OCCI does not have a direct path API at present.
Thanks.

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.

Your library is compiled in a way which is incompatible with the VM you are using.
Note that there is a JNI forum.

Loading huge file with Sql-Loader from Java

Hi,
I have a csv file with aprox. 3 and a half million records.
I load this data with sqlldr from within java like this:
           String command = "sqlldr userid=" + user + "/" + pass
                    + "@" + service + " control='" + ctlFile + "'";
            System.out.println(command);
            if (System.getProperty("os.name").contains("Windows")) {
                p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /C " + command);
            } else {
                p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("sh -c " + command);
            }it does what I want to, load the data to a certain table, BUT it takes too much time, Is there a faster way to load data to an oracle db from within java?
Thanks, any advice is very welcome

Executing sqlldr (sql loader) from java and returning the error code

I'm wandering do sqlldr return any error code whenever it hit error while running in java.
For example, if i run in command prompt using the command below,
C:\ >sqlldr uid/pwd data=abc.dat control=abc.txt
It might give me some indicator that error occurs such as
SQL*Loader-601: For INSERT option, table must be empty. Error on table CURRENCY
or
SQL*Loader-500: Unable to open file (abc.txt)
SQL*Loader-553: file not found
SQL*Loader-509: System error: The system cannot find the file specified.
But when i run in java using the code below,
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process proc = rt.exec("sqlldr uid/pwd data=abc.dat control=abc.txt");
int exitVal = proc.waitFor();
System.out.println("Process exitValue: " + exitVal);
it will only give me the same exitValue of 1(i presume its error) / 0 (i presume no error) instead of the details of the error.
How can i get the exact error code/message if i were to execute it using java?
Any solution?

mg,
I don't think user576271 wants the exit code, I think [s]he wants the error message.
But wouldn't error messages from SQL*Loader be sent to the stderr stream, and not the stdout stream?
In which case user576271 would need method "getErrorStream()" of class java.lang.Process, no?
Good Luck,
Avi.
