Complete plsql and sql grammars

Hi Guys,
Does anyone know where to get the complet PLSQL and SQL grammars?
The one I found is outdated.....

Unfortunately, the SQL (and PL/SQL) reference are probably the closest you're going to get (at least from Oracle). And that documentation is designed to be human readable, so it includes comments and explanations in addition to the bare syntax. You could, of course, cut and paste the BNF syntax diagrams from each page into a single document, but that's probably a rather laborious and error-prone process.
If you're just interested in ANSI standard SQL, you might look to see whether the ANSI standard document includes a single syntax tree.
I still, though, come back to the question of why. The documentation Oracle provides seems quite human readable to me-- I'd be hard pressed to envision a need for a SQL programmer to have a single document that contains just BNF diagrams for every SQL statement without explanation or discussion. The only people I could imagine wanting this would be writing a SQL (or PL/SQL) parser, which is virtually guaranteed not to match Oracle's real SQL (or PL/SQL) parsers, particularly given the frequency that the real parsers change.

PLSQL Blocks and SQL Queries in APEX

Hello,
Is it possible at all to view undelrying Oracle PLSQL and SQL queries in a run time APEX 3.2 application?
More elaboratively, can a smart APEX Site user or visitor find a way to see underlying SQL queries and PLSQL code objects?
Thanks,
R

Hi,
If you just want to see what sql is executed by a session you can use sql trace. This can be switched on for a whole system but is usually more usable when switched on for individual users. The problem with a system like APEX is that database sessions are not directly associated with APEX users and APEX sessions can share database sessions.
I haven't tried it, but one method that may work is to put a schema logon trigger on the APEX_PUBLIC_USER which switches on tracing when ever this user logs on to the database. It may take a little detective work to understand the sequence of things but all the SQL executed by this user will be recorded and can be analyzed for performance etc. The command to enable SQL tracing could be embedded in the APEX app, but it may be a little random as to which db session has it enabled.
Perhaps a better tracing option could be seen as a feature request in a future version of APEX.

"completion insight" and "change case as you type" won't work for sql file

Hi there,
Just updated to 3.1 on my Mac Lion. It's very likely a bug since it used the work with 3.0.
I have a "temp.sql" file where I store several queries. I start SQL Developer, open "temp.sql", connect to a DB but "completion insight" and "change case as you type" won't work anymore.
If I click in "Unshared SQL Worksheet", the new worksheet tab will work fine with completion and change case, but I want to use my temp.sql and save things there when closing the application.
To reproduce yourself the issue:
Open SQL Dev, connect to a DB (it will open a worksheet), do some queries and check that change case and completion are working, quit SQL Dev, but save the worksheet in a sql file before. Re-open SQL Dev and open the sql file. Connect to the same DB and try to change the queries or create another. Completion and change case won't work anymore.

Well, it's partially working, if your sql file is big (like mine), say with more than 1000 lines, then, maybe because of memory usage, the automatic completion won't work as expected, though, sometimes, after a while, crtl-space would stil work.
So, the problem may have been addressed, but I believe this feature can be definitely improved.

Crystal Reports 9 and SQL Server 2005 default parameter values

We're using Crystal Reports 9 and upgraded from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005.
I'm noticing a very weird problem which I wonder if anyone else has experienced (and hopefully found a resolution for). It appears that in using Crystal with SQL Server 2005 stored procedures, if we have default parameter values in the stored procedures, the default parameter values get completely ignored if you pass in a NULL value from Crystal!
For example, if you have a stored procedure that begins like this:
ALTER Procedure [dbo].[StoredProcedure]
@Param1 VarChar(200) = '',
@Param2 VarChar(200) = ''
AS ...
both @Param1 and @Param2 have a default value of an empty string, and therefore should become empty strings if nothing (NULL values) gets passed in for them.
But, like I said, what I'm finding is that with Crystal calling the stored procedure with NULL @Param1 and @Param2 values, they never become empty strings, but rather remain as NULLs.
This was never a problem with SQL 2000.
Very perplexing. Anyone else every experience this?
Thank you.

Please ignore my earlier post -- answered my own question.
NULL parameter values do not get replaced by default values in SQL -- that is normal behavior in both SQL 2000 and SQL 2005. Just goes to show, that no many how many years programming experience you have, you can still get tripped up sometimes : (

Weird behavior: PLSQL-generated SQL Report Region

I am trying to tune my PLSQL-generated SQL Report Region. I put in some code to write the resulting query to a table. I turn it on, run the page, and then turn it off and look at the SQL. Instead of getting one query for each time I load the page, I get five. Trying to find out a bit more about why, I concatenate :APP_USER and to_char(sysdate, 'hh:mi:ss') to the resulting SQL. What I find is that four of the entries in the table have my ApEx dev username, and all of these writes are 3 seconds before the SQL generated under the app username is written!
It probably goes without saying, but in all of the writes under my dev username, there are no session values and so any PLSQL if statements that depend on a session value act as if the session values are null. Also, any place I have :APP_ID show up as 4000 in those writes instead of the app number that shows up under my app username.
Do you follow this?
Well, on a hunch I copied the whole region back on to the page and disabled the original. This time, no writes with the dev username, only one select statement as originally expected.
Is that wierd or what?
Bill

Scott, Your last comment - that was it. I should've paid more attention to the time. The minutes must have been off. I made sure to log out of the dev environment before I ran the page, but the writes under my dev login were occurring when I saved the region. I still don't see why that process causes four identical writes, but it's not that important.
Thanks! Now I can to working on the real problem - improving my SQL.

PL/SQL 101 : Cursors and SQL Projection

PL/SQL 101 : Cursors and SQL Projection
This is not a question, it's a forum article, in reponse to the number of questions we get regarding a "dynamic number of columns" or "rows to columns"
There are two integral parts to an SQL Select statement that relate to what data is selected. One is Projection and the other is Selection:-
Selection is the one that we always recognise and use as it forms the WHERE clause of the select statement, and hence selects which rows of data are queried.
The other, SQL Projection is the one that is less understood, and the one that this article will help to explain.
In short, SQL Projection is the collective name for the columns that are Selected and returned from a query.
So what? Big deal eh? Why do we need to know this?
The reason for knowing this is that many people are not aware of when SQL projection comes into play when you issue a select statement. So let's take a basic query...
First create some test data...
create table proj_test as
select 1 as id, 1 as rn, 'Fred' as nm from dual union all
select 1,2,'Bloggs' from dual union all
select 2,1,'Scott' from dual union all
select 2,2,'Smith' from dual union all
select 3,1,'Jim' from dual union all
select 3,2,'Jones' from dual
... and now query that data...
SQL> select * from proj_test;
         ID         RN NM
         1          1 Fred
         1          2 Bloggs
         2          1 Scott
         2          2 Smith
         3          1 Jim
         3          2 Jones
6 rows selected.
OK, so what is that query actually doing?
To know that we need to consider that all queries are cursors and all cursors are processed in a set manner, roughly speaking...
1. The cursor is opened
2. The query is parsed
3. The query is described to know the projection (what columns are going to be returned, names, datatypes etc.)
4. Bind variables are bound in
5. The query is executed to apply the selection and identify the data to be retrieved
6. A row of data is fetched
7. The data values from the columns within that row are extracted into the known projection
8. Step 6 and 7 are repeated until there is no more data or another condition ceases the fetching
9. The cursor is closed
The purpose of the projection being determined is so that the internal processing of the cursor can allocate memory etc. ready to fetch the data into. We won't get to see that memory allocation happening easily, but we can see the same query being executed in these steps if we do it programatically using the dbms_sql package...

So, what's really the point in knowing when SQL Projection occurs in a query?
Well, we get many questions asking "How do I convert rows to columns?" (otherwise known as a pivot) or questions like "How can I get the data back from a dynamic query with different columns?"
Let's look at a regular pivot. We would normally do something like...
SQL> select id
2        ,max(decode(rn,1,nm)) as nm_1
3        ,max(decode(rn,2,nm)) as nm_2
4 from proj_test
5 group by id
6 /
        ID NM_1   NM_2
         1 Fred   Bloggs
         2 Scott Smith
         3 Jim    Jones
(or, in 11g, use the new PIVOT statement)
but many of these questioners don't understand it when they say their issue is that, they have an unknown number of rows and don't know how many columns it will have, and they are told that you can't do that in a single SQL statement. e.g.
SQL> insert into proj_test (id, rn, nm) values (1,3,'Freddy');
1 row created.
SQL> select id
2        ,max(decode(rn,1,nm)) as nm_1
3        ,max(decode(rn,2,nm)) as nm_2
4 from proj_test
5 group by id
6 /
        ID NM_1   NM_2
         1 Fred   Bloggs
         2 Scott Smith
         3 Jim    Jones
... it's not giving us this 3rd entry as a new column and we can only get that by writing the expected columns into the query, but then what if more columns are added after that etc.
If we look back at the steps of a cursor we see again that the description and projection of what columns are returned by a query happens before any data is fetched back.
Because of this, it's not possible to have the query return back a number of columns that are based on the data itself, as no data has been fetched at the point the projection is required.
So, what is the answer to getting an unknown number of columns in the output?
1) The most obvious answer is, don't use SQL to try and pivot your data. Pivoting of data is more of a reporting requirement and most reporting tools include the ability to pivot data either as part of the initial report generation or on-the-fly at the users request. The main point about using the reporting tools is that they query the data first and then the pivoting is simply a case of manipulating the display of those results, which can be dynamically determined by the reporting tool based on what data there is.
2) The other answer is to write dynamic SQL. Because you're not going to know the number of columns, this isn't just a simple case of building up a SQL query as a string and passing it to the EXECUTE IMMEDIATE command within PL/SQL, because you won't have a suitable structure to read the results back into as those structures must have a known number of variables for each of the columns at design time, before the data is know. As such, inside PL/SQL code, you would have to use the DBMS_SQL package, just like in the code above that showed the workings of a cursor, as the columns there are referenced by position rather than name, and you have to deal with each column seperately. What you do with each column is up to you... store them in an array/collection, process them as you get them, or whatever. They key thing though with doing this is that, just like the reporting tools, you would need to process the data first to determine what your SQL projection is, before you execute the query to fetch the data in the format you want e.g.
create or replace procedure dyn_pivot is
v_sql varchar2(32767);
-- cursor to find out the maximum number of projected columns required
-- by looking at the data
cursor cur_proj_test is
    select distinct rn
    from   proj_test
    order by rn;
begin
v_sql := 'select id';
for i in cur_proj_test
loop
    -- dynamically add to the projection for the query
    v_sql := v_sql||',max(decode(rn,'||i.rn||',nm)) as nm_'||i.rn;
end loop;
v_sql := v_sql||' from proj_test group by id order by id';
dbms_output.put_line('Dynamic SQL Statement:-'||chr(10)||v_sql||chr(10)||chr(10));
-- call our DBMS_SQL procedure to process the query with it's dynamic projection
process_cursor(v_sql);
end;

Of course there are other methods, using dynamically generated scripts etc. (see Re: 4. How do I convert rows to columns?), but the above simply demonstrates that:-
a) having a dynamic projection requires two passes of the data; one to dynamically generate the query and another to actually query the data,
b) it is not a good idea in most cases as it requires code to handle the results dynamically rather than being able to simply query directly into a known structure or variables, and
c) a simple SQL statement cannot have a dynamic projection.
Most importantly, dynamic queries prevent validation of your queries at the time your code is compiled, so the compiler can't check that the column names are correct or the tables names, or that the actual syntax of the generated query is correct. This only happens at run-time, and depending upon the complexity of your dynamic query, some problems may only be experienced under certain conditions. In effect you are writing queries that are harder to validate and could potentially have bugs in them that would are not apparent until they get to a run time environment. Dynamic queries can also introduce the possibility of SQL injection (a potential security risk), especially if a user is supplying a string value into the query from an interface.
To summarise:-
The projection of an SQL statement must be known by the SQL engine before any data is fetched, so don't expect SQL to magically create columns on-the-fly based on the data it's retrieving back; and, if you find yourself thinking of using dynamic SQL to get around it, just take a step back and see if what you are trying to achieve may be better done elsewhere, such as in a reporting tool or the user interface.

excellent article. However there is one thing which is slightly erroneous. You don't need a type to be declared in the database to fetch the data, but you do need to declare a type;
here is one of my unit test scripts that does just that.

I am getting event ID 6703.
I have checked and make sure, there is no proxy setting in IE and SUP.

Hi,
I saw someone use the following steps to fix this issue.
1. Unselect all Classisfications in SUP
2. Run wsusutil reset
3. Run another sync
4. Add Classifications

XL Reporter in Sap 8.8 PL 16running On Server 2008 R2 and SQL 2008 R2

Within the above environment (XL Reporter in Sap 8.8 PL 16 running On Server 2008 R2 and SQL 2008 R2)
Xl reporter is loading and appears to work fine until you look at the spreadsheet result
It is completely blank except for the titles
Yet Excel Macros and the attachment paths are defined correctly
As can be seen when we export any report to Excel successfully
I've had another consultant look at my setup carefully just to be sure
He can't figure out why
Anyone with similar results
I would appreciate any comments
Georges Ostiguy

Even something as simple as a list of BP 's and phone number gives a blank report
When my friend who knows xl reporter much more than I do tried, he managed to get the
BP numbers but nothing further
I then brought him to another server with the same configuration , same result
He then tried it on one of his own servers with similar config = same result
Server 2008 Standard R2 64bit

LabWindows CVI and SQL Toolkit cursor/schema error

We are using CVI 8.5 and SQL Toolkit 2.0.6 to write data to a SQL Server 2008 database. We are utilizing the Microsoft ODBC SQL Server (non-native) driver. We build a transaction that calls stored procedures on the database to write the data. Occasionally we get the following error:
"Could not complete cursor operation because the table schema changed after the cursor was declared"
The error is unusual since we only use one cursor and it is in a stored procedure that gets called by other software hundreds of times a day and never fails. Our database is also designed to only append records, not change existing ones. We're trying to pinpoint the error and I'm wondering if anyone knows if the SQL Toolkit uses cursors to build transactions or if this error has been seen by others. Since upgrading the toolkit or drivers takes a lot of effort, I want to make sure that I understand the problem before I start throwing darts at it. Thanks in advance for any insight.

I've attached the function that's failing. Unfortunately, the code isn't designed with much resolution as to what SQL toolkit call failed, since these calls haven't failed once validated and put into the production environment. Can you tell if any of these functions use a cursor. I could certainly try adding more resolution to the error handling, but since we've only seen errors occasionally in the production environment, I'd need to release a temp version and monitor it. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

JPA and SQL Server 2005's Identity Don't Play Nice

I am hoping someone with a little more senior knowledge of JPASQL Server 2005 can point me in the right direction involving SQL Server 2005.
What I am discovering is JPA and SQL Server 2005 do not playing nice together when you use the IDENTITY capability for
a primary key. Let me explain. "...when using the IDENTITY as the generator type, the value for the identity field MAY NOT be
available BEFORE the entity data is saved in the database because typically it is generated when a record is committed."
My problem is this.
I have two separate entities using another entity, for example a car has a wheel and a truck has a wheel. I can go through the steps
of persisting the car and the wheel with no problem. My problem begins when I try to
find the wheel (by wheel description) for the truck. The query finds the wheel, but does not return the primary key for wheel.
Therefore, using the PK inside a query generates this error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: An instance of a null PK has been incorrectly provided for this find operation. What has been my appraoch to get the entity to commit to the database is to use the following sequence for the Entity Manager.
entityManager.persist(wheel);
entityManager.flush(); I have assumed to this point this action would persist my data because I have been able to retrieve the PK immidately after these steps.
However, multiple actions taking place within the same transaction, appears to render the persist and flush steps useless. My initial thought
is to wrap the wheel creation within a new transaction so when the method/transaction completes, the data would be in the database. This
has not worked.
I hope I have explained this clear for others to follow. I apologize in advance if I have not. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Sqlcode and sql%rowcount as test conditions

I am translating a procedure from Ingres to oracle. I use the Oracle sqlcode and sql%rowcount
variables in place of Ingres's iierrornumber and iirowcount.
I replaced the ingres names with the oracle names, and now am wondering how how oracle uses these
values.
I am using DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE to display the contents of sqlcode and sql%rowcount.
What happens when I get "no rows selected". I run the same query in standalone command line
and get no rows selected .. and it's correct because I don't have data that matches).
But when I run it in the procedure, I don't get any values in sqlcode or sql%rowcount ... the
program just exits. The author was using the ingres code to test if there was data there and then
continue to do something else.
If you get no rows returned, does that mean, the sqlcode is 0 ? and the sql%rowcount is emtpy?
which is why my DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE doesn't display anything ?
my example........
before this section in the procedure ... after running a different select that returns data ...
I am using the DBMS to debug the values I have going in ...
DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_line ('BEFORE sqlcode is' || sqlcode);
DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_line ('BEFORE sqlrowcount is' || sql%rowcount);
Select value from table
where condition ='Y'; > this select will product "no rows return" and ignore the 2 DBMS_OUTPUTS beow ---
DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_line ('AFTER sqlcode is' || sqlcode);
DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_line ('AFTER sqlrowcount is' || sql%rowcount);
When i run the procedure... I get the DBMS BEFORE statements, and nothing afterwards ...
BEFORE sqlcode is 0
BEFORE sqlrowcount is 1 >>>> that is all that displays
Since I am getting the "no rows returned" ... how does oracle handle it to anyone's experience ?
Thank you. I am learning much from your comments and information.

Thanks to your answers .... The procedure is below. I've had to hand type it in, so typos are my mistakes.
The procedure compiles . When there is data to be found, I get the DBSM_OUTPUT lines of code ....
msg_read is Y
sql_error is 0
row_count is 1
p_vol_id is 880091
When I enter in a file name that does not return ANY rows back I will get the msg_read
DBMS_OUTPUT line
msg_read is Y
Call completed.
It doesn't show any 0 for sqlcode or sql%rowcount
The original author used the Ingres return codes as input to process the rest of the code...
It seems like oracle bounces the procedure once there are no rows to be found.
I just added this part ....
having an exception in the clause shows that Oracle is bouncing it to the WHEN OTHERS
exception ...
Any ideas of how to get Oracle not to do this ?
I am trying to keep things simple, and all I am testing for is if I get records back the code does things,
if not, I do something else
create or replace procedure userfile(vms_fil_name IN varchar2, msg_read IN Varchar2)
authid current_user
is
p_vms_file_name varchar2(255);
p_vol_id varchar2(255);
p_orig_id varchar2(255);
p_incoming_message varchar2(255);
sql_error number;
n_count number;
begin
p_vms_fil_nam :=vms_fil_nam;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('msg read is '|| msg_read); >> verify incoming parameter
IF (msg_read ='Y')
then
select vol_id,
orig_id,
incoming_message
into p_vol_id,
p_orig_id,
p_incoming_message
from
table one_table a
where
a.vms_fil_nam = p.vms_fil_nam
and incoming_msg ='I';
n_count :='sql%rowcount';
sql_error :='sqlcode;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('row count is '|| n_count);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('sql_error is '|| sql_error);

OraOledb, Linked Servers and SQL Server 2005 issues

Some issues I've come across when using SQL Server 2005 (and SQL Server Express 2005), the OraOLEDB provider (10.2.0.1) and a linked Oracle database (8.1.7.4.0 64-bit)
1) You must set the OraOledb.Oracle\AllowInProcess value to 1 to allow the OraOledb provider to run in SQL Server's process. Without doing this I receive an 'unspecified error' from the OLE DB provider when attempting to run a query
2) When running a ' select * ' query across a linked server using the provider, I receive the following error: Msg 9803, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid data for type "numeric". I can, however, select all of the columns by name and the query completes (no error). Sometimes the 'select *' query returns a few rows before the error, sometimes it doesn't. The Microsoft Provider for Oracle does not have this problem

Okay... I've got a Win2K3 Std Ed server (x64) running 64-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition. I've installed the Oracle 10g 10.2.1 full client and admin tools, added two named services via the NetConfig assistant, and successfully set up (and tested) a connection via the ODBC Administrator to an Oracle database.
Now... when I try to create a new connection manager in SQL Server 2005 Integration Services, the OLEDB provider for Oracle can't be found, and when I try to manually add an underlying OLEDB connection to the database, SQL Server reports:
Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. The 'OraOLEDB.Oracle.1' provider is not registered on the local machine.
Does anyone know what I need to do to see my ODBC Server data connections in SQL Server 2005 (64 bit)? I don't have this issue on my 32-bit SQL Server 2005 servers.

Inplace upgrade SCCM 2012 R2 server OS from 2008 R2 to 2012R2 and SQL 2008R2 to 2012

Hi
Is it possible to do inplace upgrade?
I have Windows Server 2008 R2, SCCM 2012 R2 CU1, SQL 2008 R2, WSUS and MDT 2013.
Can I upgrade to Windows server 2012 R2 and SQL server 2012?
Are there any catches which I must know before upgrade?
Do I start upgrade with OS and then SQL?

The in-place upgrade of the operating system is not supported...
