Catch a value from a pl*sql function in a shell script

Hi all,
I have a shell script that simply calls the following pl*sql function.
echo "execute scott.my_pkg.test('FDLmaster');\n exit;" >./pippo.sql
sqlplus scott/tiger @/fidcap_ftp/FDL/SCRIPTS/pippo.sql
What I have to do to catch the value returned from the function test?
Thanks in advance
best regards
Mario

Pass a value from a PL/SQL function to a javascript (html header) ? ?

Hey Guys,
Have a question regarding how to pass a value from a PL/SQL function to a javascript in the HTML Header.
I have created a PL/SQL function in my database, which does looping.
The reason for this is: On my apex page when the user selects a code, it should display(or highlight buttons) the different project id's present for that particular code.
example= code 1
has project id's = 5, 6, 7
code 2
has project id's = 7,8
Thank you for your Help or Suggestions

Jesh:
I have made the following modifications to your app to get it to work as I thing you need it to.
1) Changed the source for the HTML Buttons Region(note use of id vs name for the Buttons)
<script>
function hilitebtn(val) {
//gray buttons
$x('graduate').style.backgroundColor='gray'
$x('distance').style.backgroundColor='gray'
$x('career').style.backgroundColor='gray'
$x('photo').style.backgroundColor='gray'
//AJAX call to get project-ids
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$x('pFlowId').value,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=GETPROJECTS',0);
get.addParam('x01',val)
gReturn = get.get();
var arr=gReturn.split(':'); //dump into array
get = null;
for (i=0;i<arr.length;i++) {
// alert('val=' + arr);
if ( arr[i]==5)
$x('graduate').style.backgroundColor='red';
if ( arr[i]==6)
$x('distance').style.backgroundColor='red';
if ( arr[i]==7)
$x('career').style.backgroundColor='red';
if ( arr[i]==8)
$x('photo').style.backgroundColor='red';
</script>
<table cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' border='0'>
<tr><td>
<input type='button' id='graduate' value='Graduate'>
</td>
<td>
<input type='button' id='distance' value='Distance'>
</td>
<td>
<input type='button' id='career' value='Career/Tech'>
</td>
<td>
<input type='button' id='photo' value='Photos'>
</td>
</tr></table>
2) Defined the application process GETPROJECTS as DECLARE
IDS varchar2(1000);
l_act_code varchar2(100) :=4;
begin
IDS:='';
l_act_code := wwv_flow.g_x01;
for x in(
SELECT ACT_CODE,PROJECT_ID
FROM ASQ_CONTACT
where ACT_CODE = l_act_code)
LOOP
IDS := IDS || X.PROJECT_ID|| ':' ;
END LOOP;
HTP.PRN(IDS);
END;
3) Changed the 'onchange' event-handler on p1_act_code to be 'onchange=hilitebtn(this.value)'
4) Added the JS to the HTML Page Footer <script>
hilitebtn($v('P1_ACT_CODE'));
</SCRIPT>

Passing flexfield from report wrapper to seeded report using shell script

Pass a list of number values to a pl/sql function

I would like to pass a list of number values to a pl/sql function where the list will be used in an IN clause. Ideally I would like to do the following:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION ( dept_list in varchar2) is
begin
select ... where dept in (dept_list) ;
usage: process_list ( '7730,7735,7740,7745') ;
I can not find an example of doing this in pl/sql function but it seems feasible.
Is there a way to do this?

usage: process_list ( '7730,7735,7740,7745') ;The first thing is you need an appropriate data type to store a list of numbers. A single character value that looks to you like a list of numbers, is not in fact a list of numbers but a single character value.
This example uses the built in data type odcinumberlist in a procedure, you can do the same in function
Re: Passing an array to an Oracle stored procedure
If you have an old version of the database you may need to create your own type with the same definition of odcinumberlist.

Using return value of a pl/sql function in the "where" coarse in a

Hi,
I have a question,
if I have a pl/sql function that returns a boolean value, how can I use
it directly in a select statement?
I can easily do this if the function returns a number value , e.g.
select * from my_table where my_package.function('abc') = 1;
But I can't figure out how to do this if the function return a boolean.
Any idea other than creating another function?
Please reply to me directly as I'm not in the email list. Thanks.

BOOLEAN is not a SQL datatype - you can only reference Boolean values in PL/SQL.

Some "formula" interpreter or returning value from unnamed PL/Sql blocks

Hello,
My company is developing Payroll and HR software and we use Oracle 10G Database. For a new module we are looking for a system were the end user (power user) can put in some kind of "formula's" to define what info/figures he wants for certain calculations done by de module (the budget module calculations will be done in PL/SQL stored proc written by us).
Example: item "MonthlySalaryCost" = (BaseYearSal + TotalBonus)/12
Where BaseYearSal and TotalBonus are functions that exist our will exist in or database. The idea is that a PL/SQL proc (which will be the same for all our customers), at runtime will execute that "formula" and use the result in its further calculations. The "formulas" will be stored in a table. (I foresee of course a "formula" validation to prevent dangerous sql-injection).
My idea was to use Execute Immediate in the proc to execute the formula's and work with the results. In this approach we have to write (and foresee) all possible functions to access the data the user wants to use.
Another (more powerful) solution I think about, is seeing these "formula's" as unnamed PL/SQL blocks (stored in a table), were the end user (or consultant) can use the full power of PL/SQL (if then else, select into ..., etc..) to obtain the result he wants to return into the item.
My problem here is : how to return a value from a unnamed PL/SQL block that is executed via Execute Immediate in a stored proc ?
And a general question: what do you think of this approach ? are there others possibilities to do this ?
Thanks in advance,
Philippe.

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
This is a simple example:
Some functions to test:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_test1 RETURN NUMBER IS
   RESULT NUMBER;
BEGIN
   RESULT := 12;
   RETURN(RESULT);
END f_test1;
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_test2 RETURN NUMBER IS
   RESULT NUMBER;
BEGIN
   RESULT := 10;
   RETURN(RESULT);
END f_test2;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE pack_test_functions IS
   PROCEDURE proc_test;
END pack_test_functions;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY pack_test_functions IS
   PROCEDURE proc_test IS
      v_sql    VARCHAR2(4000);
      v_result NUMBER;
   BEGIN
      v_sql := 'SELECT F_TEST1() + F_TEST2() FROM DUAL';
      EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_sql
         INTO v_result;
      dbms_output.put_line(v_result);
   END proc_test;
END pack_test_functions;
/into v_result you have the result of the operation.

How to pass multiple values from workbook to planning function ?

Hi,
I have created Planning function in Modeler and it has one parameter(Variable represents = Multiple single values).
When executing the planning function by create planning seq. in the web template : I see value of variable store data like ...
A.) input one value -> V1
B.) input three values -> V1;V2;V3
This function execute completely in web.
However, I want to use the planning function in workbook(Excel).
The value of variable can't input V1;V2;V3... I don't know how to pass multiple values from workbook to parameter(Multiple single values type) in planning function ?

Setting Oracle Permissions for file access from a pl/sql function

I have a pl/sql function that calls a java method which moves a
file from a directory to another.
Since we are using Linux, Oracle wants some permissions.
Those permissions are set using:
call dbms_java.grant_permission(USER, 'java.io.FilePermission',
FILE, permission)
OK, i want to use this in my pl/sql function, but it doesn't
work.
My function looks like something like this:
-- some pl/sql code
dbms_java.grant_permission(someUSER, 'java.io.FilePermission',
sourceFILE, 'write');
dbms_java.grant_permission(someUSER, 'java.io.FilePermission',
destFILE, 'write');
flag := move(sourceFILE, destFILE);
-- flag is for 1 -> done and 0 -> error
-- some more code ...
The problem is the lines of
dbms_java.grant_permission(someUSER, 'java.io.FilePermission',
sourceFILE, 'write');
do not work!
When i grant permissions manually in sql plus it works great,
but when i do it from the function it does not work!
Any ideas anyone?
Any help would be appreciated.

The command :
dbms_java.grant_permission
(someUSER, 'java.io.FilePermission',sourceFILE, 'write');
is right.
Open sqlplus
Connect as sys or system
type :
execute dbms_java.grant_permission
(someUSER, 'java.io.FilePermission',sourceFILE, 'write');
commit;
try to compile again your procedure...does it work now ?

APEX_MAIL.SEND from a pl/sql function

I have created a pl/sql function, in the database, in which I would like to use APEX_MAIL.SEND to send out emails.
When I try to compile I get the following errors:
Compilation failed,line 10 (08:44:32)
PLS-00307: too many declarations of 'SEND' match this callCompilation failed,line 10 (08:44:32)

Here is the relavent code. Line 10 is the line where I have APEX_MAIL.SEND
LOOP
APEX_MAIL.SEND (
P_TO => email_rec.TO_EMAIL,
P_FROM => email_rec.FROM_EMAIL,
P_BODY => email_rec.BODY,
P_BODY_HTML => email_rec.BODY,
P_SUBJ => email_rec.SUBJECT );
I am in APEX version 3.0.0.00.20
I can send mail from a APEX application procedure. The function I am having trouble with is one that can be accessed under the SQL Workshop --> Object Browser --> Functions.
Other functions work fine.
Thanks.

Have a look at the following thread Re: HTMLDB_MAIL.SEND Cursor for loop
It might be a problem of your data types you have defined in email_rec. Eg. do you have a CLOB for SUBJECT?

Unable to capture the parameter values from a PL/SQL procedure

Passing Value from Crystal Report (special function) to Business View parameter

Friends,
Í have a scenario where i need to pass value from Crystal Report to a Business view's parameter.
Eg : CurrentCEUsername (func in crystal report)-- gives login user which i should pass to parameter in a Business view (used in the same report).
Will be able to explain more if required.
Thanks in Advance,
Bharath

I guess you got the picture wrong. User_id is not a report_level parameter .
In Data Foundation, below query is used..
select Acc_Number, Account_Group,User_id from Accounts where user_id={?User_id}
where in {?User_id} is the BV parameter...
The Filter was a solution. But it takes long time to Query all the data from DB and then filter at BV level.
How do i pass the CurrentCEUsername to {?User_id}
Value should ve CurrentCEusername always. so that query will be
select Acc_Number, Account_Group,User_id from Accounts where user_id=CurrentCEusername
It will restrict the data pulled from DB to BV .. right?

Procedure call from SQL*Plus in Korn Shell Script

I am trying to excute a procedure from sqlplus, truncate_audit_table. I doesn't execute. If I do it manually
it executes. I have tried multiple ways, as below. This is inside a Korn Shell scripts that creates the procedure
and counts the aud$ table. All that works, but does not truncate the aud$ table. It does not do it, no error, just
passes it by. Does anybody know why?
${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/sqlplus -s / << EOF | tee -a ${LOG}
set feedback on
@/backup/oracle/orcl/audit/truncate_audit_table.sql
select count(*) from sys.aud$;
exec truncate_audit_table;
exit
EOF
${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/sqlplus -s / << EOF | tee -a ${LOG}
set feedback on
@/backup/oracle/orcl/audit/truncate_audit_table.sql
select count(*) from sys.aud$;
begin
truncate_audit_table;
end;
exit
EOF
This is the procedure that is being called:
create or replace procedure truncate_audit_table
as
begin
execute immediate 'truncate table sys.aud$';
end;
/

aud$ is owned by sys. You can see it does the count with or without the "\".
It creates the procedure under SYS , but does not execute it.
Truncate aud$ table...
Procedure created.
COUNT(*)
422
1 row selected.

SQL Alias's in Shell Script

Hello all,
We are running Oracle 10G on Unix and I am fairly new to Unix. I know how to assign a SQL select statements values to an alias in a SQL environment such as TOAD, such as for example;
Select LogID ID, LogType Type, LogDate Date from audit_logs
where LogDate = sysdate;
That will give the determined values the labels of ID, Type, and Date respectively. But how do I assign the multiple SQL select values to shell script variables in UNIX? I have found how to do it for a single value but not a multiple value.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Alano

Thanks for reply.
What we want to do is ensure a relevant file was deleted by a database package\procedure that is part of a third party application. My aim will be to interrogate the relevant table, extract the three relevant fields and join them together into one line\string that will be appended to a lof file
Thanks again in advance
Regards
Alano
