Can a tabular form be created/used against a GLOBAL TEMP TABLE?

We are trying to simplify our apex applications. In doing so, we are examing the many collections we use to create tablular forms. These collections currently are tricky to manage and we are considering moving them to either VIEWS or GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLES (GTT).
I have created a test app against a GLOBAL TEMP TABLE....it looks great, but when I add a row and SUBMIT I recieve a message indicating record is inserted....but where did it go? I am unable to retrieve...I cannot see it in the underlying GLOBAL TEMP TABLE (as expected)....
should I be creating an ON INSERT table on the GTT to automatically insert the data into a regular table?

Now you know why you have to use collections :) Answered here:
working with global temp table and apex
Has to do with the session management and how APEX handles it.
Create a view on your collection using the column names from the source table. Use packages to write an update, delete and insert process. This can be written automatically if there are multiple collections to handle.

Use of Oracle global temp table in BI Publisher

Hi All,
I have witten a function which populates a Gobal temp table.I call the function and do a select on the global temp table.This fails to give me any result.
We are calling the function within the package in the 'beforeReport' trigger in our Data Template in BI Publisher.
I tried to check the session id and found that the sessions are different when we execute the functiona and when we do a select query.
How can I avoid this situation of changing session?
I have tried by removing commit from the function but even thta didnt help.
Please let me know if anyone has suugestion on this.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
To check if the function is working fine , we inserted the output from temp table into a normal physical table .We queried the physical table and found the values there.
So , the function is working fine.
We dont have any statement like 'PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION ' in our function.
Do we need to add it?
Just to clarify the issue , We have populated the temp table by calling a function and after that we are trying to query the temp table.However, it appears that the session changes between teh function call and issuing of select query .This is resultin into no data being fetched as the values in Gloabal temp table persist only for a session.
Thanks!

How can I get rid of Global Temp Table

Hello,
I've been writing PL/SQL stored proc for creating reports on VB.NET front end. Until now, I've been using session specific global temp table to store intermediate results and at the end I pass the result set to .NET via reference cursor. The reports are created by simply binding the ref cursor result sets to .NET grids. It's been working fine, but I am kind of bothered by the temp tables. I looked on other options, but couldn't really come up with one.
Can somebody suggest me how I can get rid of those temp tables? Thanks,

Tubby, that's exactly I was trying to do. I think that table type has to be defined in database, not within PL/SQL. How can I create that table of user defined record type? I tried that, but it doesn't allow me. I think I am missing something. For example,
create type group_t is record
(A varchar2,
B number,
C number)
now inside sp, i have something like:
type my_group is table of group_t index by binary_integer
now I have sp cursor as
cursor cur_test IS 'ABC' as A, 1 as B, 5 as C
now i do something like this. My original queries are longer and much more complicated so please don't suggest you can directly open ref cursor for this query.
FETCH cur_test BULK COLLECT INTO my_group;
Then I do all the processing, calculations, totals, sub-totals, and insert into temp table and return via ref cursor.
My problem is I can't directly fetch into the above table you mentioned. How should I go about in this situation?
Maybe I should STOP thinking about this approach and just do whatever I've been doing or solve it through pure SQL. However, there are tons of problems with pure SQL approach.

Hi,
"CREATE GLOBAL TEPORARY TABLE ..." is not a PL/SQL command; it is a SQL command only.
Create the table, using that statement, before running the PL/SQL block.
You can issue SQL statements from within PL/SQL using the EXECUTE IMMEDIATE command, but this is rarely a good idea.
I assume the PL/SQL code is meant to create the table and then populate it.
You should split those into two separate pieces of code. You'll only want to create the table once, no matter how many times you use it. I assume you'll want to populate it the same way many times. Remember, the "TEMPORARY" in "GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE" refers to the data, not the table. When you end a transaction (or a session, depending on whther you want "ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS" or "ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS"), the data disappears, but the now-empty stays, ready to be populated for the next transaction (or session).

Use global temp table for DML error logging

our database is 11.2.0.4 enterprise edition on solaris 10
we are wondering if anyone has an opinion of or has done this before, to use a global temp table for DML error logging. We have a fairly busy transactional database with 2 hot tables for inserts. The regular error table created with dbms_errlog has caused many deadlocks which we don't quite understand yet. we have thought using global temp table for the purpose, and that seemed to work, but we can't read error from the GTT, the table is empty even reading from the same session as inserts. Does anyone have an idea why?
Thanks

The insert into the error logging table is done with a recursive transaction therefore it's private from your session which is doing the actual insert.
Adapted from http://oracle-base.com/articles/10g/dml-error-logging-10gr2.php

Global Temp Table Data Deleted Before Use

Hi All,
My application sends query to Procedure as input by using which data is inserted in Global Temp Table but when want to use inserted data in Application there are no records in table.
There is no implicit or explicit Commit after data insertion. If I use ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS option during global table creation, still records are deleted from temp table .....Application don't gets records.
What may be other reasons.
Thanks in Advance.
Rakesh-India

bro u need to explicity use COMMIT for preserve transactions. the clause for the global temporary table states ON COMMIT; meaning if u commit ...got it now.
explicitly commiting the transactions after insert worked.
Now the global temp tab are session based, other user session cannot access the inserted rows.
If commiting the transaction doesn't work then u should retrieve the inserted rows within the procedure or at the end of the proc code the data may be truncated... but commiting the transactions should work easily.

Can I upload forms I created in Acrobat Pro (containing Javascript) add attachment fields to them?

I am developing fillable forms for our company. We have the following requirements.
1. Develop the forms in Acrobat Pro.
2. They contain extensive JavaScript, including custom functionality to validate the fields on the form before saving.
3. The forms must include some way to allow the users to attach files when requested.
4. Each form will be sent out to multiple recipients.
5. Recipients may not have Acrobat--only Reader.
I have solved most of the problems, and I'm getting stuck on #3 (because of #5). Short of using LiveCycle Reader Extensions (which I do NOT have), I don't know how to get a Reader-extended fillable PDF to allow attachments. I want to know if FormsCentral allows it. I read the online help and tried a test form, but I don't see how to add an attachment field to it after it's uploaded--it appears to be in a "final" status that can only be sent out to recipients after that.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Acrobat 8 Professional includes LiveCycle Designer 8, so if the form was created with LiveCycle Designer 8 or older, the yes should have the option to edit the form. Acrobat 8 Professional under the menu option 'Forms' will have an option to open the form in LiveCycle Designer. If the form was created with a newer version, there could be some issues with newer features not available in version 8.

Revising forms previously created using Form Wizard

I have a form that I previously created in Word, converted to pdf and then used the Form Wizard to add the form fields.
I now need to revise the form in Word. Is there an easy way to copy
the form fields previously used into the new version without having to go through the whole creating form fields process again? The option for Replace Page
s is greyed out so I can't use it like I can with other pdf's.

Normally you would replace the old pages with the new and any fields would not be affected. The fact that it's greyed out could be due to security setting or if the form has been distributed or otherwise Reader-enabled. You should always save a copy of the form before you apply security or distribute (or Reader-enable) the document so you can make changes like this.

Can't open 1 document created using travel journal template

Since installing Snow Leopard yesterday I found out I can't open this one file I created using the travel journal template. All other Pages '09 files are fine. I just get this error message telling me Pages had to close my document "unexpectedly".
*"Pages quit unexpectedly while using the SFWordProcessing plug-in"*
Don't see why it would need to use this plug-in. And I don't recall choosing this plug-in. There must be a way around this. To open this file by turning off that plug-in perhaps. Unless it's absolutely necessary when using the templates. Or the "travel journal" template.

Tabular Form: Conditional column based on another column in table/form?

Hi!
I have 4 columns in table A:
number (the question number)
question (the question to be asked)
type (TEXT, LOV are the 2 valid values)
answer (the answer with text or a selection from the lov table below)
I have 2 columns in table B:
number (the question number)
values (a single value for the lov's)
In table B there can be mutiple rows for each number. Table A and table B
join on the number.
I want to build a tablular form on table A where for each row either a text
box or a select list is displayed depending on the contents of the type column.
So row 1 would display a text box when the type value is text; row 2 would
display a select list when the type value is lov.
Is this even possible? How do I refer to the type column in the conditional for the
answer column? I am guessing that I will need to have 2 answer columns one
that displays when the type column is TEXT and one that displays when the
type column contains LOV. This is OK. Setting up the conditional is display is the issue at this point.
Hopefully I have explained this well enough! :)
Thanks!
Dave Venus

Hi Dave,
Sorry for not responding sooner - I finish work at 3pm GMT.
I'll take your first question first (3:28PM posting according to my display - not sure if you are on GMT time?):
As far as I understand it, using the select_list_from_query() function generates the options that are required in the select list as HTML tags. Each instance of this function should create a SELECT tag and the results of the query should generate one or more OPTION tags within it.
Second question (4:20PM posting):
The HTMLDB_ITEM functions are listed in the documentation - here's a link to the online version:
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14303/api.htm#sthref2524
Most of the examples that I have seen have been on this forum - simply search for HTMLDB_ITEM or one of its functions.
I tend to leave the generation of tabular forms to the wizard as much as possible. The only exceptions are when I need to have access to more than the Primary Key for a row but don't want to show the field on screen. There are examples on the forum about concatenating the HTMLDB_ITEM functions into a single value - this hides ID fields from the user but makes them available to PL/SQL code.
Third question (5:29PM posting)
I did try using DECODE in my questionnaire but not for the feature that you needed. Originally, I wanted to use this to display one of a number of different fields (ie, my date, number or string field as appropriate to the question) but this didn't help as I couldn't get back to the right field during the update. If you have decode working for the select lists, then that's great!
The first column should be hidden or sitting behind a checkbox as this should be the Primary Key for the row and should not be editable by the user nor would it normally be displayed.
As long as your select statement creates the correct output (albeit that you may need to work on the layout!), you should have an updatable form. However, you will need to have the MRU processes in place and the appropriate buttons that trigger these. When I did my questionnaire, I created the form using a wizard to get all of the processes and buttons and then changed the select statement. If you haven't got the processes and/or buttons, we can go through adding these onto your page.
Last question (9:08PM posting)
As explained above, column 1 should normally be hidden. The INPUT tag you detail above is what I would expect to see. The value="6" attribute indicates that 6 is the Primary Key for that row - every row will have the same tag but different values for the "value" attribute. So, if it is hidden and these are the tags you see doing a View Source on the page, then everything is correct.
OK. So now we have the data on screen and (hopefully?) we have the correct processes and buttons on the page.
The next step would be validation and update of the data.
Validation of the data can be handled by a normal page process - I can let you have example code if you want to validate the data (this will also explain how to loop through the rows - there are also methods that you can use to do this in javascript if you want). Updates should be handled by the processes and buttons on the page - again, if you haven't got these we can go through adding them in (although, if you haven't yet formatted your page, you may find it quicker to copy your select statement and create the page again using the same select statement).
ORA-20001 errors are user defined errors. Do you mean the "data has changed" errors? If so, you will probably need to include the MD5 checksum functionality (it's shown in the document linked above).
Finally, we'll keep this thread going so that you have all of your workings and my responses in one place, if that's ok with you?
Regards
Andy

How to make use of a global internal table in SAP BW during transfer rules

HI friends,
I am ABAP consultant working on some APO info cubes. I have an issue during the upload of planning area data into APO info cube.
Please help.
I am using a transfer routine to find the TECHWEEK from a data base table ZGC_CALWEEK based on the on the calender month and calender week.

There are more than 50-80 million records that wil be transferred from planning area to info cube. The select statment is giving pathetic performance as this has to run 50-80 million times.
After adding the select statment to find the TECHWEEK it is taking 4 times the time that used to take before writing the select statment.
Is there a way that I can first fetch the data from ZGC_CALWEEK to one internal table and that internal table can be used using read statment during the transfer routine instead of writing select statement here.
Please help in this case?

Hi Ashutosh,
Thanks for the reply,
The structure of the ZGC_CALWEEK is as below. I have already created a secondary index on the table for this table for the fields APO WEEK and APO MONTH. This didn't help much on the performance.
I am also planning to keep the ZGC_CALWEEK database table to be fully buffered and this may definitely improve the performance but I need to reduce the data base hits as less as possible.
MANDT                           MANDT                           CLNT     3     0     Client

APOMONTH                           /BI0/OICALMONTH     NUMC     6     0     Calendar year/month
The table ZGC_CALWEEK is in APO system, where the transfer rules are being executed.
As you mentioned START ROUTINE, In the start routine Can I create an internal table let's say GT_CALWEEK with structure ZGC_CALWEEK and pull all the records (I have a max of 2000 records in this table) from ZGC_CALWEEK to GT_CALWEEK and Can I used the same internal table GT_CALWEEK in the transfer routine to read the TECHWEEK from internal table.
Thank you very much again for you reply. Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Siva

Use Global Temp Table to overcome Mutating Trigger issue

Hello all. I need to delete a line in a table, and thought I would get around the mutating trigger issue by creating a GTB table. I created 2 different triggers. One is a Row level trigger, the other a Statement level trigger.
The first trigger gathers the information I need to identify the line I want to delete. This is:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER Requisition_Capture
AFTER UPDATE OF Delivery_Code on Supply_Items
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
IF :NEW.Delivery_Code = '#' THEN
    INSERT INTO Requisition_Storage
      (Req_Code)
    VALUES
      (:NEW.Requisition_Code);
END IF;
END;And the second trigger deletes the line:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER SUPPLY_ITEM_RESET
AFTER INSERT ON Requisition_Storage
DECLARE
BEGIN
DELETE FROM Supply_Items r
   WHERE r.Requisition_Code =
         (SELECT t.Req_Code
            FROM Requisition_Storage t, Supply_Items s
           WHERE t.Req_Code = s.Requisition_Code)
     AND r.Order_Qty = 0;
END;The GTB is as follows stores the information I need to delete the line.:
-- Create table
create global temporary table REQUISITION_STORAGE
req_code VARCHAR2(20)
on commit delete rows;When the column Delivery_Code is updated in the Supply_Item table, and the value is reset to '#', I want to capture the Requisition_Code in the GTB, so I can run the statement level trigger and delete the reset row. However, I still have a mutating error problem. What am I missing?

The statement level trigger would need to be an AFTER UPDATE OF Supply_Items for this to work around the mutating trigger issue. You need to ensure that your UPDATE has finished updating all the rows that it is going to update before your statement-level trigger runs.
As has been pointed out, however, the desire to work around a mutating trigger error almost always indicates that you have a data model problem. And you're almost always better served by fixing the data model than working around the error.

How to use "Auto increment" in temp table Oracle

Pleas tell me yaar,
In MS Sql for Auto increment i am using like this "seqid int identity" for temp table
t_seq_tbl table(seqid int identity,EVENT_SEQ_NO varchar(30))
In oracle how to use....

As far as I know there is not any auto increment data type in Oracle. Instead of this you should create a sequence and get the next value of the sequence while creating a row in your table.
CREATE SEQUENCE Test_Sequence ;
CREATE TABLE Test_Table ( Id NUMBER , Foo VARCHAR2(4) ) ;
ALTER TABLE Test_Table ADD CONSTRAINT Test_Table_PK_Id PRIMARY KEY ( Id ) ;
INSERT INTO Test_Table ( Id , Information ) VALUES ( Test_Sequence.NEXTVAL , 'FOO' ) ;

How can an email account be created using Java mail on the FLY.

Scenario is such that i am using mail server from MDaemon.com and JavaMail api,and making Email website like yahoo...some what ! but how can a user create his account by just filling the form and when he enters his account be created in Mail server..

Last time I checked MDaemon has its own API for account management. I have never tried to do anything with it but their sales literature says it exists.
Account management will be specific to the platform and mail server software. This is beyond the scope of JavaMail which is for message transport (and management to an extent on IMAP servers), not account management on the server.
The other alternative is to write your own application that modifies the structures used by mdaemon but since it already has an API why bother.
