Can we capture SQL Queries before execution?

Hi Everyone,
I would like to know that is there any way to capture SQL queries before execution?
please advise.
thanks
kv

Hi!
You could capture the querys and use them as a payload for the "Database Engine Tuning Advisor".
Maybe it gives you some indexes which raise the performance.
But:
I only would add indexes to user tables.
Cheers,
Roland
PS.:
Indexes which are created directly through SQL could be lost after a B1 Upgrade. So saving the creation-statements in a warm and secure place is recommended
PPS.:
...and maybe such indexes are not supported by SAP...

How to determine estimated cost of dynamic SQL queries before execution?

Hi Performance Gurus,
Does anybody need know of a function module or program which can give me an estimated cost for a given SQL query. SQL query is a dynamic query and we need to know the estimated cost before we execute it.
Cheers
Jiby
Moderator message: subject corrected, in the future please use one that describes your problem better.
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Aug 24, 2010 12:56 PM

Hi,
The mentioned function module does not give you the cost but the plan.
On DB2 e.g.
U Explanation of query block number: 1   step: 1
D Query block type is SELECT
S Performance appears to be bad
S No index is used. Sequential tablespace scan
E Method:
D           access new table.
D           data pages are read in advance
D           pure sequential prefetch is used
D           new table:
D                       SAPD8M.DD02L
D                       table space locked in mode: N
D           Accesstype: sequential tablespace scan.
I think there is some information that could be used as well (cost figure transformed to text)
S Performance appears to be bad
S No index is used. Sequential tablespace scan
But as already said: the whole requirement is quite strange...
I'm not aware of any other options, sorry.
Kind regards,

Size of SQL query before execution and after execution

hi all
I need help on how can i find out the size of SQL query before execution and after execution in java
The query can be any query select / insert / update
Can anyone help me if any system tables help to find out the required size i mentioned
Urgent help is required
Thanking in advance

I need the size in terms of bytes
like the rquirement is stated as below
select ................: 10 B , return 250 B
so i need size before and after execution in terms of bytes

How to pull history SQL queries before 18 day's

Hi,
I tried to pull the Awr report for the SQL history queries. Unfortunately it is saved only for 7 days. There is any way I can retrieve the history SQL from dictionary tables. I have access to all the DBA views. Please let me know if you need any further information.
Thanks,
Swagath

swagath, as already stated as a general rule Oracle does not retain the information you are asking for. Even the AWR information consists of samples so it is not complete.
Keeping a record of all the queries ran would take a fair amount of space on any active system and really what practical use if this information.
If you need to know who accessed what then you need auditing configured and if you need to hold onto the data for more than a short period of time you likely need to be dumping the audit trail external to the database.

View the reports sql statement before execution

Hi

You can turn on the trace functionality. That will display the actual SQL statements sent to the database in the trace file.

Check the validity of a SQL statement before execution

Hi everyone,
In an applet I have created, I am allowing the user to create a SQL statement which will be sent to a servlet that in turn issues the JDBC request for the SQL statement. My concern is that since my GUI lets the user create more or less any kind of SQL statement (including an illegal one) I need to verify if the user has created the correct SQL. How can this be achieved?
To recapitulate and summarize, I need to know how I can check the validity of a SQL statement without actually executing it and handling the SQLException. FYI, I am using the mm-mysql driver.
Thanks,
Alan

jschell is correct. Unless you're writing something like an ISQL tool you want to be very careful doing this.
Having said that Mimer SQL have SQL validators that may do what you want http://developer.mimer.com/validator/index.htm
They've also got the SQL Validator running as a web service that you can use. Theres example code here showing how to use it.
http://sqlvalidator.mimer.com/index.html
At the risk of being accused of selfpromotion you can check out the SQL Validator plugin for SQuirreL SQL CLient. This is a fully functional example of using the Mimer SQL Validation web service. http://squirrel-sql.sourceforge.net/

SQL queries inside html region

Hi,
I have html page in my application and i need to display result of the sql query inside this page. I would like to know if i can use the sql queries in html and if yes how can do that.
My query is select count(*) from Quote Letter master where service = 'Premier Support'
And i have similar queries like this which i would like to use in the html region.

My query is select count(*) from Quote Letter master where service = 'Premier Support'.For this you better use a page item and compute the items value using a page computation on on-load before header point. Then you can place the page items in a APEX region and also add any styling

Can I use Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio version 11.0 to write SQL queries for "SQL Server Compact 4.0 Local Database"

Hi, Can I use Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio version 11.0 to write SQL queries for "SQL Server Compact 4.0 Local Database" ?
When I use Connect Object Explorer, the "Connect to Server" dialog box which pops up has only 4 selections in the Server Type Drop Down List. They are Database Engine, Analysis Services, Reporting Services & Integration Services. I have read
somewhere that there should be a compact database option. but I do not see it.
What I would like to do is use free form SQL Queries against the tables in "SQL Server Compact 4.0 Local Database" .
Once I have validated these queries, then I will use them in my Visual Studio 2012 C#, ASP.NET application. I created the Local Database using Visual Studio 2012 for use by my application.
Thank you for your help..

Hello,
With SSMS 2005 we have had the Option to work with SQL CE database files, but not with higher Version of SSMS.
You can use the free SQL CE Toolbax instead; see

Sentence SQL can be captured

Sentence SQL can be captured from a form since the form that I have been able to recover does like the following example.
DELETE FROM provincia WHERE ROWID=:1
pardon by my english
INSERT INTO provincia(CODPRO,NOMPRO) VALUES (:1,:2)
SELECT CODPRO,NOMPRO FROM provincia WHERE ROWID=:1 FOR UPDATE OF CODPRO NOWAIT
SELECT ROWID,CODPRO,NOMPRO FROM provincia
UPDATE provincia SET CODPRO=:1,NOMPRO=:2 WHERE ROWID=:3
When doing update, insert or delete from sql*plus or SQLPlus Worksheet if it recovers the complete syntax
insert into provincia values(78, 'Zamora')
I am working with
oracle 8.1.7
forms 6i

TOAD from quest comes with a program that monitors the sql being submitted from just about anything running client server on your local pc. It will give u the complete sql with the values for the bind variables. If you have toad, look for a program called SQLMonitor.exe where toad is installed.

On Parallel Execution of SQL Queries

Hi All,
We have forced Parallel hint in a query and if its without any where clause it uses parallel hint but where as if we add few where clauses it goes through few indexes and does not show parallel hint in the explain plan. Is it because we need to make those indexes also parallel and run the query once more or am i missing something here.
But even i had tried making the index parallel enabled and checked it. Database Version 10.2.0.1.0 Enterprise Edition 64 Bit mounted on Linux.
PRO's Please help

SQL Monitoring using SQL Queries

Hi
I am using Oracle 10 g DB. I have an application which has Oracle as DB. Its a multiuser application. During the testing of one of the page we found that saving couple of records takes huge time (50-60 seconds). I dont have access to the logic written in application code to know which all queries gets executed when user click on save button.
I know that there is SQL Monitoring available in OEM why which you can find out the queries which got executed and also the execution time for those queries.
However I dont have OEM access.
Can you please let me know teh set of queries which probably will use few of teh V$ data dictionary views and provide me the same details as generated in the Monitoting report generated by OEM ?
I want to see all the queries which got executed in last defined time (say 10 mins, 1 hr etc) , same way as it is done in OEM and not just the last sql.
TIA
Regards
Arun

Hi,
I recommend you to install STATSPACK - it's a free tool that can be used instead of the Automatic Workload Repository (that is used in OEM).
This tool creates snapshots of V$ views in defined time period, so it enables you to see long runing queries in history.
If I were you I would run SQL trace just before the problematic part and then stop it just as it has finished. It would be better to run trace only for the problematic session or module - not for the whole database. SQL trace generates a file with all the executed queries, explain plans, stats, ...
In extreme case just create copy of v$sql before and after the problematic part and compare them (new sql_id, elapsed_time delta, ...)

Error while running the sql queries in unix as cron job..

Hi,
I've configured some sql queries to run as cronjob from unix,i'm able to excute all the sql queries with out any error,after all the queries are executed,I'm getting the following error message.
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [4080], [1], [131], [], [], [], [],
Could any one advise me why this error is being thrown?
How to avoid this error?
Thanks,
Anil

Are you running these queries through TopLink?
If so, the error seems to be occurring on the database, when the query is being executed.
I have never seen that error before. Performing some websearches it seems to be a general database error, potentially something to do with synchronization. Sorry I can't be of more help, perhaps the database forum can provide more insight...

3. I create a view link to create master-detail relationship for these 2 view objects.
masterview.SourceBlock (1)->detailview.SourceBlock (*).
4. I create a tree table using these 2 view objects with master-detail relationship.
When I set default value for variable bindings of these 2 view objects and the matching records exist, tree table can work well. I can expand the master row to display detail row in UI.
But I need to pass in dymamic parameter value for variable bindings of these 2 view objects, tree table cannnot work again. when I expand the master row and no detail row are displayed in UI.
I am sure that I pass in correct parameter value for master/detail view objects and matching records exist.
Managed Bean:
        DCIteratorBinding dc = (DCIteratorBinding)evaluteEL("#{bindings.MasterView1Iterator}");
        ViewObject vo = dc.getViewObject();
        System.out.println("Before MasterView1Iterator vo.getEstimatedRowCount()="+ vo.getEstimatedRowCount());
        System.out.println("Before MasterView1Iterator ShiftModeCode="+ vo.ensureVariableManager().getVariableValue("ShiftModeCode"));
        vo.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("DateFrom", dateFrom);
        vo.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("DateTo", dateTo);
        vo.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("ShiftModeCode", shiftModeC);
        vo.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("TerminalCode", terminalCode);
        vo.executeQuery();
        System.out.println("MasterView1Iterator vo.getEstimatedRowCount()="+ vo.getEstimatedRowCount());
        DCIteratorBinding dc1 = (DCIteratorBinding)evaluteEL("#{bindings.DetailView1Iterator}");
        ViewObject vo1 = dc1.getViewObject();
        System.out.println("Before DetailView1Iterator vo1.getEstimatedRowCount()="+ vo1.getEstimatedRowCount());
        System.out.println("Before DetailView1Iterator ShiftModeCode="+ vo1.ensureVariableManager().getVariableValue("ShiftModeCode"));
        vo1.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("DateFrom", dateFrom);
        vo1.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("DateTo", dateTo);
        vo1.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("ShiftModeCode", shiftModeC);
        vo1.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("TerminalCode", terminalCode);
        vo1.executeQuery();
        System.out.println("after DetailView1Iterator vo1.getEstimatedRowCount()="+ vo1.getEstimatedRowCount());
5. What's wrong in my implementation? I don't have no problem to implement such a tree table if using simple master-detail tables view object, but now I have to use such 2 view objects using complex SQL for my requirement and variable bindings are necessary for detail view object although I also think a bit strange by myself.

Hi Frank,
Thank you and it can work.
public void setLowHighSalaryRangeForDetailEmployeesAccessorViewObject(Number lowSalary,
                                                                          Number highSalary) {
        Row r = getCurrentRow();
        if (r != null) {
            RowSet rs = (RowSet)r.getAttribute("EmpView");
            if (rs != null) {
                ViewObject accessorVO = rs.getViewObject();
                accessorVO.setNamedWhereClauseParam("LowSalary", lowSalary);
                accessorVO.setNamedWhereClauseParam("HighSalary", highSalary);
            executeQuery();
but I have a quesiton in this way. in code snippet, it is first getting current row of current master VO to determine if update variables value of detail VO. in my case, current row is possibly null after executeQuery() of master VO and I have to change current row manually like below.
any idea?
            DCIteratorBinding dc = (DCIteratorBinding)ADFUtil.evaluateEL("#{bindings.SSForecastSourceBlockView1Iterator}");
            ViewObject vo = dc.getViewObject();
            vo.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("DateFrom", dateFrom);
            vo.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("DateTo", dateTo);
            vo.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("ShiftModeCode", shiftModeC);
            vo.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("TerminalCode", terminalCode);
            vo.executeQuery();
            vo.setCurrentRowAtRangeIndex(0);
            ((SSForecastSourceBlockViewImpl)vo).synchornizeAccessorVOVariableValues();

Monitoring Oracle SQL queries in VBA

I currently use VBA with Excel to generate reports based on data within an Oracle 9 database. The amount of data is very large and the reports can take a long time to process. I have added status bar progress indicators for the majority of the report processing tasks to inform the user of what is going on.
The problem is that I need to be able to monitor the progress of the main SQL queries since they take upwards of a few minutes to run each (mainly because I need to rank and order data). I currently use code similar to that shown below to query the database from VBA.
Sub simpleVersion()
Dim username As String
Dim password As String
Dim sid As String
Dim objSession As Object
Dim objdatabase As Object
Dim OraDynaset As Object
Dim strSQL As String
username = "user"
password = "pass"
sid = "database"
' connect to database
Set objSession = CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession")
Set objdatabase = objSession.OpenDatabase(sid, username & "/" & password, 0&)
strSQL = "select latitude, longitude, otherdata from scatter where otherdata > 50 order by latitude, longitude"
' This command takes a long time to execute when doing ranks/order bys
Set OraDynaset = objdatabase.DBCreateDynaset(strSQL, 0&)
Do While OraDynaset.EOF = False
'Process the data and put on a spreadsheet
'Status bar messages can be used here without problems
OraDynaset.MoveNext
Loop
Set OraDynaset = Nothing
Set objSession = Nothing
objdatabase.Close
Set objdatabase = Nothing
End Sub
When the DBCreateDynaset command is executed VBA waits until the dynaset data is retrieved from oracle. I would like to be able to do something similar to the pseudo code below.
Execute SQL to create dynaset
Do while still obtaining dynaset
Check v$session_longops - Indicate time taken / remaining on status bar
Loop
I have found that if you execute a large query without any tasks that require the whole dataset before they can begin (ranks, ordering etc) the dynaset is created almost instantly and excel does not freeze up.
With non dynaset operations such as inserts it is possible to run the query in non blocking mode. I am able to monitor the progress of the query and indicate it to the user.
Dim myStatement As OraSqlStmt
Set myStatement = objdatabase.CreateSql(strSQL, ORASQL_NONBLK)
Do While myStatement.NonBlockingState = ORASQL_STILL_EXECUTING
DoEvents
Select Case intSpinCount
Case 1
Application.StatusBar = "Please Wait. Calculating data /"
Case 2
Application.StatusBar = "Please Wait. Calculating data -"
Case 3
Application.StatusBar = "Please Wait. Calculating data \"
Case 4
Application.StatusBar = "Please Wait. Calculating data |"
intSpinCount = 0
End Select
Application.Wait TimeSerial(Hour(Now()), Minute(Now()), Second(Now()) + 1)
intSpinCount = intSpinCount + 1
Loop
Non blocking mode is explained here. However dynasets are not supported.
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/A91202_01/901_doc/win.901/a90173/o4o00022.htm
I have tried using pl/sql to insert the data requested into a temporary table and then the normal select statement to get the data back out. However since the data stored in a table is not ordered it isnt much help to me since I still have to do the order by command.
Anyone got any ideas?
All help is much appreciated.

Dear taktang
I'm a newbie. I'd be grateful if you would tell me where to find "oracle-base"
