Connect statement with input string in a script

I would like to enter a password for each connect statement after I start my.sql
my.sql
connect scott/&p_password@orcl;
grant SELECT to peter on table_1;
SQL>@my.sql
SQL> connect scott/&p_password@orcl;
Please enter a value for p_password: grant SELECT to peter on table_1;
invalid option.
using: CONNECT <username> [AS SYSDBA|SYSOPER]
SQL> ...
Sql accept the grant statement after the connect statement as an input value.
What must I change in my script???
Best regards,
Tom Rakete

Are you trying to start your script from within SQL*Plus?
Afraid no. Because the prompt "Please enter a value for ..." sounds suspicious.
C:\my.sql
conn max/&p_password@pdoxora
grant select on test to public;Copy-paste from SQL*Plus:
SQL> @C:\my.sql
Enter value for p_password: *******
Connected.
Grant succeeded.In other words, SQL*Plus prompts "Enter value", not "Please enter a value".
So what tool are you using?

Andrew.

Call a Graphical Calc view with input Parameters from a Script Based Calc View

Hi All.
I am trying to call a graphical calculation view with input parameters from a script based calculation view as below but getting syntax error:
SESSION_SAMPLE = SELECT SESSION_CREATE_DATE,SHA256,CA_MEASURE
                             FROM "_SYS_BIC"."WILDFIRE/CV_SESSION_SAMPLE"
                             WITH PARAMETERS ('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$IP_START_DATE$$',:START_DATE),
                                 'PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$IP_END_DATE$$',:END_DATE));
START_DATE and END_DATE are input parameters of the script based calculation view.
Can anyone please help me with the correct syntax for accomplishing this?
Thanks,
Goutham

Hi Gautham,
One more option what i would like you to try is the below option , here i have just changed the order of passing nothing else.
SESSION_SAMPLE = SELECT SESSION_CREATE_DATE,SHA256,CA_MEASURE
                             FROM "_SYS_BIC"."WILDFIRE/CV_SESSION_SAMPLE"
                               ('PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$IP_END_DATE$$','$$END_DATE$$'),
                              'PLACEHOLDER' = ('$$IP_START_DATE$$','$$START_DATE$$'))

Audio SFX not in sync with input string playback

The audio 'key clicking' sound that occurs during playback as an input string is animated on the screen is not in sync with the characters... Its about .5 seconds late.
Is there a way to adjust this?
Thanks,
Peter

While the posted solution to my sync issue could very well correct my problem, the poster presumes I am computer literate, which I am not. lol
could the solution provider please explain the solution as is it were being given to a 6 year old? Although most 6 year old's are possibly more computer literate than I. lol
Thank you for your time.
I will be checking back for any response.

If statements with a String ????

hi, im using a JSP page which takes in a username and password and that info is then sent to a servlet which connects to the database and checks to see which type of user they are. the servlet then redirects them to the page that corresponds to the typ of user they are. everything works fine except for it keeps going to the LoginError page. heres my code for the if statement:
if (acType=="TournamentOwner")
response.sendRedirect("http://localhost:8080/TournamentOwnerPage.jsp");
else if (acType=="TeamManager")
response.sendRedirect("http://localhost:8080/TeamManagerPage.jsp");
else if (acType=="Operator")
response.sendRedirect("http://localhost:8080/OperatorPage.jsp");
else
response.sendRedirect("http://localhost:8080/LoginError.jsp");
ive also tried
if (acType == ' TournamentOwner ' )
if (acType.equals( "TournamentOwner" ))
if(acType.length( ) == 15)
ive also tried it with comparing it to a variable with the same name...
String tour = "TournamentOwner";
if (acType == tour )
the whole thing works fine except it keeps going to the LoginError jsp page.
the acType variable successfully stores the value of the account type so thats working fine.
the problem must be in the if statement. can anyone help me out?

IF Statement with multiple ORs in Calc Script

Hello,
May I know what is the best way to script the following statement in a Member formula, not calc script (can't use Fix statements)
If (A->B->C == 1, 3 or 5 AND X->B->C == Value1)
returnvalue1
ELSE
#Missing.
Basically I am looking for syntax for an IF statement where IF one condition is equal to multiple values as mentioned, then the result is this...
Help is much appreciated. Thanks.
Adi

You won't be able to use a comma separated list, you'll have to repeat the combination. A->B->C == 1 or A->B->C == 3 so on and so forth
If you can give a use case scenario or the logic behind it then there are more chances that you might end up with a nicer solution.

SQL Prepared Statement with a string parameter including a colon

Hello everybody,
I'm recently experiencing a problem using Prepared SQL Statements if one of the parameter is a string containing a ":" (colon).
I'm able to insert a date (as a string) record using the format "hh:mm" into a MySQL database table but when I execute the query I cannot retrieve the record.
Does anyone know any problem with ":" character?
Replacing ":" with "." solves the problem...
Thanks a lot.
Edited by: 798883 on 29/09/2010 17:25

Huh?
One of the points in using PreparedStatements is that they handle the formatting for you. You shouldn't be setting dates with String values at all. Create a java.sql.Date (or timestamp or time as the case may be) and use the appropriate setXXX method of PreparedStatement. If you have String values then you can use SimpleDateFormat to parse them into dates.

CSM connection stats missing?

Hi
I have a policy-map to insert an Ip address into the http header. I am also binding this to a sticky group using src ip address(See policy ICHAIN1-INSERT).
When I initiate a connection within the policy, although the connection is successful, when I try to view the connection stats (show mod csm 3 conns) my client is not listed in the connection table.
When I remove the "sticky-group 10" command then show the connection table, I see my client listed.
Is this normal behaviour?
Also when I issue the show sticky command the real ip's are garbled as shown:-

Help with Oracle Connection- "Input string was not in a correct format"

Hello, can some one, anyone please help me. I have a simple VS 2005 C# application that connects to oracle. I've set it up to take the username, password and tnsname as arguments. I am using Client 9i, version 9.2.0.401 of Oracle.DataAccess.dll, and .NET Framework 2.0.
It works fine when I run it from VS 2005, I have also set up a test machine w/o VS 2005 and ran my install package and it runs fine. I sent it to one of my co-workers and when he tries it the OracleConnection obect fails with the error.
"Input string was not in a correct format"
strange in that it is not an ORA error, just the identifed text!?
Here is the code:
## begin code
OracleConnection dbc = new OracleConnection();
string sConnectString = "User Id=" + username.ToString() + ";Password=" + password.ToString() + ";Data Source=" + tnsname.ToString();
dbc.ConnectionString = sConnectString.ToString();
MessageBox.Show("Attempting to Connect to Oracle");
dbc.Open();
MessageBox.Show("Connected to Oracle: " + dbc.ServerVersion);
## end code
Pretty basic, what could be going on?
Since this only happens with an installation, I put in the message boxes to verify exactly where it chokes. I get the first message box, then an error with the identified text. I've seen a number of posts regarding input string format problems, but not a one dealing with OracleConnection.Open(). I added all the ToString() calls just to make sure everything was a string but it did not change the end result.
Anyone? Thanks In advance!
Eric S.

Hello,
well, i got a message "...string not wellformed format...", too.
If you have defined the parameters as string, you don't need the additonal "ToString()". Please ckeck your tnsnames -string. Try to debug this. I believe you have copy the format from the tnsnames.ora and there you have much brackets.
For example, two code snippets:
As datasource i use <Server>:<Port>/<Instance>
try
string FDsn ="User Id="+FDbUser+";Password="+FDbPwd;
FDsn +=";Data Source=wth5:1521/Ora9.wth5";
FConn = new OracleConnection(FDsn);
FConn.Open();
if (FConn.State == ConnectionState.Open )
FConn.Close();
catch (Exception ex)
FStateMsg = "Connection to database failed. Check Configuration in parameter: ConnectionString. " + ex.Message;
Above i connect to a Ora 9.2.0.1
by using
FDsn +=";Data Source=wth5:1522/XE";
i connect to an OraExpress database on the same machine.
My Oracle.dataAccess.dll ist the newest, 10.2.... and it runs under Framework 1.1.x and Framework 2.x
I'll hope it will help you. Best regards!

How to get input string with resolved '?' of PreparedStatement?

Is there a way to retrieve the input string of a PreparedStatement?
Example:
ps = connection.prepareStatement("update t1 set name=?");
ps.setString(1, "test");Now, can I get the input string "update t1 set name=?" back from the PreparedStatement object with the '?' resolved? In this case:
update t1 set name='test'
?

Sir,
Thank you first for responding. I appreciate your time in dicussing things here. Just saying.
I see that you suggested and that is sort of agood
tool for this but I think I would want to do more
testing with the actual driver no?
Not sure what you mean by "testing with the actual
driver". The suggestion that I made is a proxy, not
a substitute.
Right. Never mind. I got myself confused.
Actually I would like to ask a serious question
here... can you give an example of why you don'tknow
what the SQL will look like? I'm just trying to
understand why you don't know and I'm strugglingwith
that.1. Dynamic creation of SQLUgh. Okay. But still ugh.
2. Unknown input of parameters.I still don't understand why they would be unknown if it is your app inputting them.
Sincerely,
Slappy

How to connect input string value to numerical values

Hello,
I am trying to figure out how to connect a single user's input string value to numerical values. Basically I want the user to input the name of a gas that I have a list for (I believe i put the list of gasses in an array>). Then I want to match 2 numerical values "a" and "b" depending on which gas name the user has put in. These "a" and "b" values will be automatically matched with the gas name from a list I put. For example the gas hydrogen has a value of 3 for "a" and 4 for "b. so when the user puts the name "hydrogen" in a string constant, automatically "a" and "b" should be outputted. I will be connecting a and b to a formula
Thanks for any help
Solved!

This sounds a lot like an Enum to me. Make sure you type def the enum to make sure updates quickly and easily make it to all copies of the enums.

Java Switch Statement with Strings

Apparently you cant make a switch statement with strings in java. What is the most efficient way to rewrite this code to make it function similar to a swtich statement with strings?
switch (type){
               case "pounds":
                    type = "weight";
                    break;
               case "ounces":
                    type = "weight";
                    break;
               case "grams":
                    type = "weight";
                    break;
               case "fluid ounces":
                    type = "liquid";
                    break;
               case "liters":
                    type = "liquid";
                    break;
               case "gallons":
                    type = "liquid";
                    break;
               case "cups":
                    type = "liquid";
                    break;
               case "teaspoons":
                    type = "liquid";
                    break;
               case "tablespoons":
                    type = "liquid";
                    break;
          }

I'd create a Map somewhere with entries "liquid", "weight", etc.
public class Converter {
    private static Map<String, List<String>> unitMap = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();
    private static String[] LIQUID_UNITS = { "pints", "gallons", "quarts", "millilitres" };
    private static String[] WEIGHT_UNITS = { "pounds", "ounces", "grams" };
    static {
        List<String> liquidUnits = new ArrayList<String>();
        for (int i = 0; i < LIQUID_UNITS.length; i++) liquidUnits.add(LIQUID_UNITS));
unitMap.put("liquid", liquidUnits);
... // other unit types here
public String findUnitType(String unit) {
for (String unitType : unitMap.keySet()) {
List<String> unitList = unitMap.get(unitType);
if (unitList.contains(unit))
return unitType;
return null;
It might not be more "efficient", but it's certainly quite readable, and supports adding new units quite easily. And it's a lot shorter than the series of if/else-ifs that you would have to do otherwise. You'll probably want to include a distinction between imperial/metric units, but maybe you don't need it.

How to encrypt with a string as input,but not a key object

As far as I know,when encrypt or decrypt ,a key must first be got,and the key is first generate by a tool or from SecurityRandom,that means I can not generate the same key with the same input.Does there is a method which can generate a same with the same input string?
There is a need to transfer file between to site,and the customer wish to encrypt these files during transfering,and they want to store a string into each database at each site,when sending and receiving files,get the string from the database to encrypt or decrypt the file,they alse want to have a control of the string,they can change the string randomly if they wish as long as long keep each string is equal,how to realize this?

I think what you are looking for is a password based encryption (PBE). An example of using the same is mentioned in JCE reference guide. Below is the relevant code/docs from the rference guide.
Using Password-Based Encryption
In this example, we prompt the user for a password from which we derive an encryption key.
It would seem logical to collect and store the password in an object of type java.lang.String. However, here's the caveat: Objects of type String are immutable, i.e., there are no methods defined that allow you to change (overwrite) or zero out the contents of a String after usage. This feature makes String objects unsuitable for storing security sensitive information such as user passwords. You should always collect and store security sensitive information in a char array instead.
For that reason, the javax.crypto.spec.PBEKeySpec class takes (and returns) a password as a char array.
The following method is an example of how to collect a user password as a char array:
     * Reads user password from given input stream.
    public char[] readPasswd(InputStream in) throws IOException {
        char[] lineBuffer;
        char[] buf;
        int i;
        buf = lineBuffer = new char[128];
        int room = buf.length;
        int offset = 0;
        int c;
loop:   while (true) {
            switch (c = in.read()) {
              case -1:
              case '\n':
                break loop;
              case '\r':
                int c2 = in.read();
                if ((c2 != '\n') && (c2 != -1)) {
                    if (!(in instanceof PushbackInputStream)) {
                        in = new PushbackInputStream(in);
                    ((PushbackInputStream)in).unread(c2);
                } else
                    break loop;
              default:
                if (--room < 0) {
                    buf = new char[offset + 128];
                    room = buf.length - offset - 1;
                    System.arraycopy(lineBuffer, 0, buf, 0, offset);
                    Arrays.fill(lineBuffer, ' ');
                    lineBuffer = buf;
                buf[offset++] = (char) c;
                break;
        if (offset == 0) {
            return null;
        char[] ret = new char[offset];
        System.arraycopy(buf, 0, ret, 0, offset);
        Arrays.fill(buf, ' ');
        return ret;
    }In order to use Password-Based Encryption (PBE) as defined in PKCS #5, we have to specify a salt and an iteration count. The same salt and iteration count that are used for encryption must be used for decryption:
    PBEKeySpec pbeKeySpec;
    PBEParameterSpec pbeParamSpec;
    SecretKeyFactory keyFac;
    // Salt
    byte[] salt = {
        (byte)0xc7, (byte)0x73, (byte)0x21, (byte)0x8c,
        (byte)0x7e, (byte)0xc8, (byte)0xee, (byte)0x99
    // Iteration count
    int count = 20;
    // Create PBE parameter set
    pbeParamSpec = new PBEParameterSpec(salt, count);
    // Prompt user for encryption password.
    // Collect user password as char array (using the
    // "readPasswd" method from above), and convert
    // it into a SecretKey object, using a PBE key
    // factory.
    System.out.print("Enter encryption password: ");
    System.out.flush();
    pbeKeySpec = new PBEKeySpec(readPasswd(System.in));
    keyFac = SecretKeyFactory.getInstance("PBEWithMD5AndDES");
    SecretKey pbeKey = keyFac.generateSecret(pbeKeySpec);
    // Create PBE Cipher
    Cipher pbeCipher = Cipher.getInstance("PBEWithMD5AndDES");
    // Initialize PBE Cipher with key and parameters
    pbeCipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, pbeKey, pbeParamSpec);
    // Our cleartext
    byte[] cleartext = "This is another example".getBytes();
    // Encrypt the cleartext
    byte[] ciphertext = pbeCipher.doFinal(cleartext);Hope this helps

While downloading the latest IOS update to my iPhone 4, my phone went into a frozen state with the update 2/3's complete. It's remained like this for the past 12 hours. I can't turn the phone off, and I can't connect it to iTunes. Anyone know what to do?

While downloading the latest IOS update to my iPhone 4S, my phone went into a frozen state with the update 2/3's complete. It's remained like this for the past 12 hours. I can't turn the phone off, and I can't connect it to iTunes. Anyone know what to do?

If the place of purchase does not have a 'Lemon' policy (three replacements = refund or complete exchange), sadly you are out of luck.
And Apple themselves do not have any power over what policy a reseller uses. You can call Apple Care and have them replace it, but the odds are you would probably get a standard replacement again like has previously happened. I'm pretty sure Apple holds their own sort of 'Lemon' polocy where if it's been replaced three times through them they'll swap it out for a brand new phone. Not 100% sure though, best bet is too call them again.
And it ***** getting a response like that from their support personel, but hey, they can't all be that bad can they? I'm sure if you plead your case they'll try and help out. I've dealt with them in the past and had one or two people that rubbed me the wrong way, but most of them have been a great help and kept me a happy customer, haha.

Regular expression breaks with \00 in input string

I wrote the following code to illustrate the problem.
Clearly the match should occur in both cases, but it does not occur if \00 is in the input string (within the < > ).
I am not even searching for \00 or \01. This makes the regular expression match rather useless if you have text that contains data in hex form. I am using Labview 8.2. Is this a known bug? Is there a work around?

CRC-16 CCITT with Hex input string

Hiya
I am new to Labview and CRCs, I am trying to create a program that performs a CRC-16 CCITT check. I have searched the forums and found a few examples but my input string that is entered into the CRC is hex and the examples I have found the input string should be in ASCII. Apologies if the answer to this question is simple! I am very new too all this so please be nice!!
Thanks
