Column Name Length of Tables In ODI
Hello Everyone,
I am facing with an unique issue in ODI. We are using ODI AIA for Integration, which has default XML exports of some JD Edwards tables.
These tables are automatically reversed and models are created using AIA, one such file is named Base.xml and is reversed as a Model named 'Base' in ODI. In this model there are various tables which are created on the basis of the contents of XML file. The column names are derived from XML Tags. Some XML tags are having length greater than 30. This does not create a problem in the model as such, but when using it as source in interface, the temporary tables that are created on-the-fly in a schema (Oracle) does not allow the length to be greater than 30 and hence the interface fails (error : Column name length exceeded), add to it, ODI suffixes column names with a Cnumber_. Since the XML file and tags are standard within the AIA, we cannot alter the length.
So is there a way to reduce the column name length of temporary tables which are created at runtime by ODI based on the source XML files ?
Thanks in advance,
NJ
If you are using temp table that are created on the fly, you can not control the column length, so you have only one alternative just change the column name (less than 30) in model level.
Thanks

Column name length exceeds maximum allowed
Hello,
I get this error when am trying to create a table. ERROR: Column name length exceeds maximum allowed length(30).
Is it able to extend this length to be more than 30 ? By the way I am using Oracle 11g

How to rename a column name in a table? Thanks first!
I tried to drop a column age from table student by writing the
following in the sql plus environment as :
SQL> alter table student drop column age ;
but I found the following error
ORA-00905: 缺少关键字 (Lack of Key word)
I have oracle enterprise edition 8.0.5 installed at windows 2000
thank you
And I want to know how to rename a column name in a table?
thanksIn Oracle 8i, your syntax would have worked. However, if I
recall correctly, in Oracle 8.0, you can't rename or drop a
column directly. One way to get around that problem is to
create another table based on a select statement from your
original table, providing the new column name as an alias if you
want to change the column name, or omitting that column from the
select statement if you just want to drop it. Then drop the
original table. Then re-create the original table based on a
select statement from the other table. Then you can drop the
other table. Here is an example:
CREATE TABLE temporary_table_name
AS
SELECT age AS new_column_name,
other_columns
FROM student
DROP TABLE student
CREATE TABLE student
AS
SELECT *
FROM temporary_table_name
DROP TABLE temporary_table_name
Something that you need to consider before doing this is
dependencies. You need to make a list of all your dependecies
before you do this, so that you can re-create them afterwards.
If there are a lot of them, it might be worthwhile to do
something else, like creating a view with an alias for the
column or just providing an alias in a select. It depends on
what you need the different column name for. -
How to select even the column names of a table?
Hello All,
Is there a way to select even the column names of a table in the select statement?
My select from a table (say X) is in a SQL* Plus script that gets invoked by application tier and displays data in the application tier window. User's can then copy the data into a spreadsheet and do their processing. However, I need to give them the column names too along with the data.
Thanks,
ChiruIf there is a middle tier that is selecting and
displaying the data, and that's what the users are
copying from, the middle tier would have to address
its presentation of the data to allow users to
include column names. If this is a common task, the
application should probably be modified to give users
the option of downloading the data in a spreadsheet
directly rather than forcing them to copy and paste
data.Thanks for the reply.
The users don't have to copy paste. The application tier has an options in the "Tools" menu item which allows them to copy the entire output to a file (in my case a txt file which is a pipe delimited). Then they have to do text to columns to get the data into each column of the spreadsheet. I could have directly called the stored procedures from the application tier and created ".csv" files and FTP'd them to the user's folders. However, I am having to go this round about because, I am not getting enough support from the LAN team in FTP'ing etc.
OK I'll think of another workaround.
Thanks,

How to get only column names from different tables as single table columns
Hi All,
I have one requirement in which we want only column names from different tables.
for example :
I have three tables T1 ,T2, T3 having
col1 clo2 clo3 --> T1 ,
col3 col5 ,clo6 --> T2 ,
Clo6 col8 col9 --> T3
columns i want to get only all Column names from all table as single Resultset not any data from that how can i get that empty resultset
because this empty result i want to bind in datagridview(front end) as Empty resultset
Please tell me anyways to do this
Niraj SevalkarIf I understand you want an empty result set, just with metadata. SET FMTONLY do the trick:
SET FMTONLY ON
SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3, ....., Coln
FROM
T1 CROSS JOIN T2 CROSS JOIN T3
SET FMTONLY OFF
Another alternative is to include an imposible contition
SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3, ....., Coln
FROM
T1 CROSS JOIN T2 CROSS JOIN T3
WHERE 1 = 0
If you are using a SqlDataAdapter in your client application. You can use the FillSchema method. the select command may be any select statement that returns the columns you want. Under the covers FillSchema will call SET FMTONLY ON.
If you are using SqlCommand.ExecuteReader you can pass SchemaOnly to CommandBehavior argument. SET FMTONLY ON is called under the covers. Again the select command may be any select statement that returns the columns you want.

What is the use of Position Column Name in USER_CONS_COLUMNS Table
Please let me know the purpose of POSITION Column Name in USER_CONS_COLUMNS Table.
Example :
Created this below Table having two constraints 1.Primary Key 2.Check Constraint
CREATE TABLE A(ID NUMBER PRIMARY KEY,NAME VARCHAR2(30),SAL NUMBER CHECK (SAL > 0))
When i execute the below query
SELECT POSITION,CONSTRAINT_NAME FROM USER_CONS_COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'A'
it displays the data :
POSITION CONSTRAINT_NAME
1 SYS_C005488
SYS_C005487
Only for the first record it displays the POSITION but not for the second row.
Kindly help me on this.SQL> CREATE TABLE A(
2 ID1 NUMBER
3 , ID2 NUMBER
4 , NAME VARCHAR2(30)
5 , SAL NUMBER CONSTRAINT A_SAL_POSITIVE CHECK (SAL > 0)
6 , CONSTRAINT A_PRIMARY_KEY PRIMARY KEY (ID1, ID2)
7 )
8 /
Table created.
SQL> SELECT CONSTRAINT_NAME, POSITION, COLUMN_NAME
2 FROM USER_CONS_COLUMNS
3 WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'A'
4 ORDER BY CONSTRAINT_NAME, POSITION
5 /
CONSTRAINT_NAME POSITION COLUMN_NAME
A_PRIMARY_KEY 1 ID1
A_PRIMARY_KEY 2 ID2
A_SAL_POSITIVE SALA primary key constraint can have multiple columns - the position shows the order the columns are in the primary key definition (and thus also in the pk supporting index.)
A check constraint does not have any such ordering of the columns involved, so therefore position is null. -

Set the column name of a table in a list box
is there any code to set the column name of a table in a list box at oracle devloper 6i?
pls help.I dont want to go for pl/sql . It should work any table.You want Dynamic SQL without using PL/SQL? Tricky. I'm sure there's a possible way using some very complex and convoluted XML functionality of SQL but in reality you are asking for something that isn't natural to SQL queries, especially if you are expecting a dynamic number of columns to be produced for each row of data. SQL expects a table structure, including output formats, to be a defined number of columns with any number of rows, not a defined number of rows with any number of columns.
Perhaps if you explain why you need this sort of functionality then we may be able to offer a better solution.

How to know primary key column name form a table name in sql query
Suppose I only know the table name. How to get its primary key column name from the table name?
ThanksViews don't have primary keys though their underlying tables might. You'd need to pick apart the view to determine where it's columns are coming from.
You can select the text of the view in question from user_views. -

Edited by: wenjing wang on Feb 15, 2008 6:57 AMhi,
hope the below code helps u. Just take the headee which contains the field name and split it like below and compare it with the field name u want here 'last name'.
here,
'First name' will be in wt_filedata1 and remaining field names in wt_filedata2, so 'do' continues.
c_tab must be the separator, either , or + or tab etc..
CODE:
read table person into wl_header index 1.
do.
split wl_header at c_tab into: wt_filedata1 wt_filedata2.
if wt_filedata1 <> 'lastname'.
cnt1 = cnt1 + 1.
wl_header = wt_filedata2.
else.
exit.
endif.
enddo.
Please reward if it is useful.
