Can i use or in decode

hi master
sir see my query
select decode((sum(debit)-sum(credit)),sum(debit)>sum(credit),(sum(debit)-sum(credit)),
sum(credit)-sum(debit),(sum(credit)-sum(debit))),title form transction group by title
means i can use < or > in decode
thank aamir

You use sign function for yours require task
For example you check if a b > 10 the display a else display b.
Decode (Sign(a-b), 1, A,
,-1, B, 0)

JSF 2 composite comp. backing class: what can I use for the decode method?

Hello, everybody!
I want to convert a JSF 1.2 custom component to a JSF 2.0 composite component. This JSF 1.2 custom component uses a renderer where I take some actions in the decode method. So, I would like to know what I could use to replace the well known decode method when writing a backing class for a JSF 2.0 composite component.
Thank you.

Can I use decode( decode...)...)

Hi,
Can I use decode function inside decode function.

I'm not quite sure it's the result you intended but your nested decode statement does run ...

Alternatively, as CD suggests, you may find it easier to express your logic using CASE.

The case syntax is a bit funny though as there's not a single condition evaluation (like a DECODE or case structs from some other languages).

How can i use one SQL statement to solve problem?

How can i use one SQL statement to solve the question below?
For a Table named A, there is a column named F(char type).
Now select all the records where F like '%00' and update their F value to '%01'
Just one SQL statement.Do not use PL/SQL block.
How to do that?
Thanks.

What is the data volume for this table?
Do you expect lots of rows to have '%00' as their value?
Following two statements come to mind. Other experts would be able to provide better alternatives:
If you have index on SUBSTR(f, 2):
UPDATE A
SET    f = SUBSTR(f,
                  1,
                  length(f) - 2) || '01'
WHERE substr(f,
              -2) = '00';If most of the rows have pattern '%00':
UPDATE A
SET    f = SUBSTR(f,
                  1,
                  length(f) - 2) ||
           DECODE(SUBSTR(f,
                         -2),
                  '00',
                  '01',
                  SUBSTR(f,
                         -2));

Use sql function decode with Zend code

Hi,
I need to use sql function DECODE() in a query for PHP Code. This query works well in sql*plus but PHP returns
the following error message:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in C:\Program Files\Zend\Apache2\htdocs\Compta\compta2.php on line 16
the query is :
$query =
'select substr(c.NUM,1 ,2) Compte ,
c.designation , a.Periode
,decode(substr(c.NUM,1 ,1), '1',1, '2',1,'3',1,-1) cp_type ,
sum(credit) - sum(debit) Montant
from ecritures a, clients b, compte c
where
b.NUM (+) =a.NUM
and a.DATEECRITURE between to_date(:debut, \'dd/mm/yy\') and to_date(:fin, \'dd/mm/yy\')
and substr(a.num,1,2) =c.num
group by substr(c.NUM,1 ,1), substr(c.NUM,1,2) , c.designation ,a.periode
order by compte ';
Can any one help me ???
Thanks by advance
nb: Iuse Zend 2.0

Hi,
You need to escape single quote mark:
decode(substr(c.NUM,1 ,1), \'1\',1, \'2\',1,\'3\',1,-1) cp_type ,
the same way you did for to_date:
to_date(:debut, \'dd/mm/yy\')

you can do

(SELECT project_id,task_id,award_id FROM
(Select project_id,task_id,award_id,transaction_id,source_name

xxdl_sc_mng_gns_pta_inv_hc_v

How to use count with decode

Something like this ?
select count(decode(your_column,'a',1)) as "a",
       count(decode(your_column,'b',1)) as "b",
       count(decode(your_column,'c',1)) as "c",
       count(decode(your_column,'d',1)) as "d"

[SOLVED]:Is it possible to use functions like decode in 'setWhereClause()'?

Hello,
My requirement is that I have 2 poplists - Country and States.
When I select a country,the corresponding states of that country should get populated in the states poplist.
The approach I took is that :
I selected firePartialAction as ActionType in Country poplist. Then I called a function to VOImpl of StatesVO and set the where clause there.
Now I was thinking about using decode as there is no direct connection between the CountryVO and StatesVO.
Is it possible to use functions like decode in 'setWhereClause()'?
For Example:
setWhereClause("DECODE(LOOKUP_TYPE,'XXC_IND_STATES','IND','XXC_US_STATES','US') = :1");
setWhereClauseParam(0,Country);
executeQuery();
When I tried running the page,no error was given but when the country poplist was changed - there is no change in states poplist.
If its not possible to use decode in setWhereClause(), could you please guide me as to how I can write a query to retrieve a value from a table and store it in a variable 'A'- so that I can pass that variable 'A' in setWhereClauseParam function .

That kewl, but for u knowledge u can add anything in ur where clause of query through ur code in Voimpl class. It is even possible to do change entire query, see Voimpl class methods in javadoc.

Can I use JMS instead of multithreaded approach

Hi,
I am having a typical problem where the XML data coming through sockets using TCP/IP needs to be read and perform some action.
The code I have uses two classes to do this, each of them extending the Thread class, and invokes the individual run() method. In the run() method the second class's constructor is called which in turn invokes its own run() method. In the second run() method a handler method is invoked which does the required function. The dedicated threading approach is required in my application but my question is:
1. Instead of achieving the handling using threading, which seems to be a bit complex, can I write a JMS listener and queue the XML messages in a Oracle database. ( I am using Oracle 9i (Advance Queue can be used)).
2. Will using JMS will increase the overall performance any way?
PLease help!!
regards
Kaushik

The JMS does the threading for you. This would potentially make your application simpler but you still need a thread(s) at the end of the day in the same way.
The JMS is a more comprehensive package which hides much of the work for you. It also does alot of work which is not needed. For this reason I would expect JMS to be slower than a well written custom implementation. However, typically JMS is fast enough and much more maintainable, easily reconfigured etc. etc. and CV++ :)
My guess is that most of your work is in decoding your XML data or somewhere you don't expect.
If you want it to go faster I would suggest getting a profiler e.g. JProfiler on demo license and do some performance tests. You will probilbly find there a few simple things you can do to improve performance.
I would not concider the kind of migration you suggest until you know expectly what the problem is. You can waste alot of time optimising code which was not a problem in the first place. (: from experience :)
