Char types

what is the difference between "inspection characteristics " and "general characteristics from the batch classification"?

Sandip,
From terminology point Inspection charaterisctics ar basically MICs which are used in insp plans. These are used for results recording valuation of a lot.
In batch classification it is just called as class characterisctics. You may choose to record some of the inspection parameters in the batch charateristics so that the batch iteself can show the inspction characteristics.
Hope you are clear.

How can I use jbo:InputSelect for a char type filed?

How can I use <jbo:InputSelect for a char type filed?
I have two tables. One is room (primary key is room(type is char)), another table is responsibility (foreign ker is room(type is char)). Both tables have same length for room column.
There is a problem:
If I use (in the "DataEditComponent.jsp" file)
<jbo:InputSelect multiple="false" datasource="dsEdit" displaydatasource="roomData" displaydataitem="ROOM" displayvaluedataitem="ROOM" ></jbo:InputSelect>
to get the room input for responsibility from combobox(Datasource roomData is from room table). In the form the room field cannot bind the data in combobox, alway select the first item. And if I select one item and click the update button.There is an error message:
Error Message: JBO-27010: Attribute set with value H409 for Room in Responsibility has invalid precision/scale
I found If I changed the field type from char to varchar2 in database also change the entity objects, it works well. I wonder if there are any diffrence using <jbo:InputSelect tag in char and varchar2 type. How can I use <jbo:InputSelect for a char type filed as i don't want to change my datatype in database at this stage.
I try this in JDeveloper 9.03, 9.034, 9.04. The result is the same.

If I were in your shoes, here's how I would do it:
<%-- Assuming you have dsRoom and dsResponsibility --%>
<%-- Select is an HTML tag --%>
<select name="ROOM" size="1">
<% char roomID =""; // Init your character var
// Open a rowsetIterator to get the records and add them to the LOV
<jbo:RowsetIterate datasource="dsResponsibility" changecurrentrow="true" >
<% roomID = (char)dsResponsibility.getRowSet().getCurrentRow().getAttribute("ROOM"); // Grab the char value
// add the value to the LOV
%>
<option value="<%=roomID%>"><%=roomID%></option>
</jbo:RowsetIterate>
</select>
If you are using this as part of an edit page you may want to utilize the "selected" option of the <option> tag. In one instance I am doing this on an edit page because the use may open an existing record. If I don't account for it, then it will change the DB to contain the first value from the list! You can do a simple check like:
//Set the current record's char
char curRecord = (char)rowEdit.getAttribute("ROOM");
// inside the iterate:
if (curRecord == roomID) {
<option value="<%=roomID%>" selected><%=roomID%></option>
} else {
<option value="<%=roomID%>" ><%=roomID%></option>
Hope that helps!

How to Change Date-Type to Char-Type with Format?, When it.....

I'd like to Change format Data from Date-Type Column to char-type
especially, as 'YYYYMMDD' Format, But There are some Error Message.
I already know, to_char(sysdate, 'yyyymmdd') from dual,
But When it Applied my Table (has Date Type Column )....
That SQL was Error...
Table Description
===================
GUBUN     NOT NULL     NUMBER(7)
POLCD     NOT NULL     NUMBER(7)
TITLE          VARCHAR2(200)
VALUE          NUMBER(7)
SIDATE          VARCHAR2(20)
SQL
================================
SELECT TO_CHAR(SIDATE,'YYYYMMDD') as V_SIDATE , -- <== Error
TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'YYYYMMDD') as V_TODAY -- <== Ok
FROM T_POLL
Error Msg
================================
ORA-01722: invalid number
.....I don't know Why... plz. help me, it's Urgent...-_-;
ICQ : 40751557
MSN : [email protected]
Finally, sorry for my poor English...

The reason for the error is you are applying a TO_CHAR function to a character datatype. SIDATE is a character. That field should be a date field. If for some reason, you need it to stay as a character field then you will need to change it to a date then change it back to a character.
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(SIDATE,'put format here'),'YYYYMMDD')

Measuring Point during IK01 not allowing characteristics with CHAR type

Hi Experts,
Measuring Point during IK01 not allowing characteristics with CHAR type Only allows NUM,
could you anyone suggest on this.
Regards
Nitin

May i know the reason of such implementation?
You can use group code and valuation code for assigning predefined values to measuring documents.
Moreover text field can be used for assigning short text to it.

Converting CHAR type to other data types

Dear SDN users,
would any of you know how to convert a CHAR data type to other data types for example hexadecimal etc., and convert them back? I suspect there must be some standard FMs available.
Thankyou for your responses.
Regards,
Smitha

Hello smitha ,
I suppose you are assigning some variable of char type to a variable of integer type it will automaticaly (implicitly ) convert the type .
in some case we need to change the type explicitly like the above mentiioned .
Thanks and regards ..

Can we move char type data to packed decimal

Hi
can we move char type data to packed decimal??
Thanks
Devi

Hi..
that depends on the data in the character variable..
if that character variable contains onli numbers then it is possible.
<b>data c type c value '1'.
data p type p.
p = c.
write p.</b>
here the output is 1.
If it contains even a single Alphabet , then it goes for a dump.
<b>data c type c value 'A'.
data p type p.
p = c.
write p.</b>
here u will get a short dump.
hope u understood.

How to pass one sapce to char type variable

Hi,
There is one import parameter in rfc "zstat" with char type and length 1. I want to pass value equal to one space in this variable during execution of RFC so that it passes the condition in code where it is not initial.
But during runtime it doesnt store value equal to one space and become initial.
So my question is how to pass value equal to one sapce to this variable.?
Thanks in Advance!!!
-Harkamal

Hi!
If it a char type, then its initial value is a SPACE character.
If it confuses the program and you wanted to use it another way, then use numbers (type i - integer). It's initial value is "0".
Or try to use other flag characters, like "T" for true and "F" for false values.

HOW TO TRANSFER DATA FROM CHAR TYPE TO NON CHAR TYPE

HI EXPORTS,
THIS IS SASIDHAR, I HAD UPLOADED DATA FROM FLAT FILE INTO DYNAMICAL INTERNAL TABLE NAME <T_UPLOAD>. THIS INTERNAL TABLE FIELDS ARE CONVERTED INTO CHAR TYPE FIELDS. NOW I HAVE TO TRANSFER THIS DATA INTO ANOTHER INTERNAL TABLE <DYN_TABLE> WHICH CONTAINS BOTH CHARACTER AND NON CHARACTER FIELDS. PLEASE ANY ONE GUIDE ME REGARDING THIS ISSUE.
THANKS AND REGARDS
SASIDHAR.V

there is no specific CASTING operation in ABAP, so just do following:
non-char-field = char-field.
as long as it is possible ABAP does implicit casting and you dont have to care about anything.

Data truncation when using resultset.getString() to a char type field

In my table ,there is a char type field,such as a char(4) field, for multilanguage use,I put two "double-byte" character in it,
when I using resultset.getString() to this char type field,I can't get the right result,one char was truncated, so I only get three char, for "double-byte" it 's error code
this only happen on IBM JVM on AIX 5 , when I use oracle jdbc on windows hotspot vm , it works fine (we use the same oracle on AIX)
is there any further setting for JDBC driver on AIX ? but it 's thin driver
and the varchar type works fine at any paltform
any help ?

Unicode Program : # is appearing for data types declared as char type

Hi friends,
I have copied one program on unicode system to unicode system. As only char type data types are allowed, i converted structure EP to char type only. Now during execution it is giving dump because it is showing value as '#' for 2 fields whos original data type was P and currency. How shall i convert them? Any suggession will helpful.
Abhijit

Hi Sandeep,
This is my piece of code : Initially structure EP was used in read dataset which is of different datatypes. so i created similar structure ep_c with data type as char. As u suggested, i tried to declare field BETRG as type currency. Then also it gave dump. (Runtime errors: UC_OBJECTS_NOT_CHARLIKE). For 2 fields BETRG and POHRS which is of currency and dec type originally, i am getting values as '#' causing in dump. In non unicode program both fields have values as '0.00' If i put these values in debugging then after execution, program comes to selection screen! Kindly advise.
Data : komok(2) type c,
       betrg(18) TYPE c,
         betrg type betrg,
         pohrs(10) type c.
open dataset seq-in for input in text mode encoding default ignoring conversion errors.
      if sy-subrc = 0.
        do.
          read dataset seq-in into ep_c.
          case sy-subrc.
            when 0.
              move :ep_c-id to ep-id,
                    ep_c-text to ep-text,
                    ep_c-abkrs to ep-abkrs,

Forms: Oracle AS 10g R2 - parameter with "char" type only limit to 4k

Hi,
i have one forms with parameter ":parameter.whole_rights" (Datatype=Char, Length=32767) over design time.
when i compiled and execute it in old server (Oracle AS 10g R1), it work perfectly but when compiled and execute it over the 10gr2, it always show ora-06502: pl/sql: numeric or value error.
after some troubleshooting, i found out that the maximum length for "char" type parameter is only 4k. if i assign any string larger than 4k characters, it will show the error as per mentioned but it work on old server...
anyone have this problem and how to resolve it???
additional information:
server is on unix environment.
Edited by: cy82 on Jun 15, 2010 3:35 AM

Hi there,
the application does not use up all the 32k characters, the maximum length it use currently is around 6k.
the parameter is used to store all the available access right (forms name, button/object name, read, write etc which is very customized & application specific design). every related access right in that parameter will be passed seperately into related form when the form is called to control the view, transaction nature etc.
as the design involve other system who passed the data in, i not really plan to change it as it involve interface between 2 systems instead try other possible ways (simple and less impact).
i think i should not say it use up all 32k, i just curious why the application declare the length as 32k over the forms design time but the actual length was only limited to 4k during forms execution time on Oracle AS r2.
thanks for suggesting me to try the copy build in and i will try it & post the result tomorrow. i think it should work because i saw your quote for the documentation here:
In Oracle Forms 10g, all parameters of datatype CHAR are limited to 4000 bytes when set or referenced using PL/SQL bind variable notation; for other usages no limit is imposed.
as the "copy" build in does not use the parameter as PL/SQL bind variable, quite large posibilities it works...will try and update the result tomorrow....
another question: where did you get the documentation for oracle forms?? i'm searching around and still cant find the quote that you copy from documentation. hopefully you can give me the link for my future reference.

Transfer a char type varialble value to NUMC type variable

Hi all,
I have a BSEG-PROJK type NUMC(8) variable and one xyz type CHAR(50) variable.
I have to pass value from xyz to BSEG-PROJK
my e.g is that while I am passing
xyz= 'M-000064'
BSEG-PROJK = xyz
then the value of BSEG-PROJK is 00000064 but i need M-000064

Hi,
The value M-000064 is showing in field PROJK of BSEG, due to the conversion routine ABPSP attached in the domain level of this field.
- To check the actual value stored in data base level
- SE16 Give table name=>to see the table contents Press F7=>settings=>user parameters=> uncheck the check box check conversion exit.
- now the value in field PROJK will show in numeric.

Using the StringTokenizer But Have a Delimiter of "char" type

I am using the java.util.StringTokenizer to break a String into tokens.
The delimiter is common (i.e. ',') and I declare it as a char.
I have a compilation error becasue the StringTokenizer requires the delimiter of the String type. How do I handle the problem?
                        char delimiter = ',';
                        int longest = 0;
                              StringTokenizer t = new StringTokenizer( letters, delimiter );
                              while ( t.hasMoreTokens() )
                                   String token = t.nextToken();
                                   int length = token.length();
                                   if ( length > longest )
                                        longest = length;
                              }

How do I convert a char to a String?Familiarize yourself with the API for Character and String, I can see about 4 different ways of doing this.
Or do it the shortcut way ;-)char c = 'c';
String s = "" + c;db
edit Now why wasn't #3 on the page before I posted? Forum lagging again?
@OP: The other ways are
-- put the char in a one-element array and use the appropriate String constructor, or static method copyValueOf
-- static method String#valueOf(...)
