Creating tables with XMLType

Hi,
I'm facing a problem in creating a simple table with
a column as XMLType.
This is how it fares in SQL*plus :
DB Ver: Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.5.0 - Production
SQL> CREATE TABLE poTable (purchaseOrder XMLType) ;
CREATE TABLE poTable (purchaseOrder XMLType)
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00902: invalid datatype
Is there anything that I need to install in the database in order to create such a table?
Thanks
Satrajit

SQL> R
1 SELECT OWNER,OBJECT_NAME,OBJECT_TYPE,STATUS FROM ALL_OBJECTS
2* WHERE OBJECT_NAME = 'XMLTYPE'
OWNER      OBJECT_NAM OBJECT_TYPE        STATUS

the object?

ORA-00904 on create table with xmltype column

Hi,
I am trying to create a table with syntax
CREATE TABLE ss_test(docid integer primary key, content varchar2(4000),acl XMLType)
XMLType column acl store as object relational
XMLSchema "acl.xsd" element "acl"
varray xmldata."ace" store as table ace_tab;
and getting ORA-00904.
acl.xsd is registered as

end;
Couldnt figure out whats wrong with the syntax. Any pointers ?

Hmmmm ... I don't know if I should smile or frown with the implication that I am an OO guy :D :D
Most of my colleagues when I started working as a software engineer, treated me as too low-level because of my C background (started doing C in 1985).
In my last job, my colleagues hated my guts because I was asking them to squeeze every bit of performance out of C++ by using STL which is definitely not OO (although C++ is).
My current colleagues treat me as a DB guru (which I most definitely am not) and they overlook/forget the fact that most of them use Java libraries in their projects, that I wrote for them !
I am inclined to believe that I do not fall into any category in the end...
The only thing I am for sure - and I am proud of it - is inquisitive. I want to know everything there is about the tools I use, and so I end up spending hours and hours investigating... (Microsoft found that out the hard way when I filed 16 bug reports in 8 days when Visual C++ 6 came out ! Not that it hurt them though...)
This is where my confession ends (and my working on the XML validator starts...)

Export/import table with XMLTYPE data_type and fine_grained policy

Hi friends!
I'm trying to export a table with XMLTYPE and faine-grained policy.
Source: HP-UX - Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
Target: Linux 2.6.18-238.el5 - Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
I do it thru exp/imp old utilities as mention in metalink ID 1318012.1.
One of the things that surprised me after exp/imp is that the number of objects increased:

Why is this happening? Is it normal?
Other problem that I found is triggers are not imported, why!?!?

Find size of table with XMLTYPE column STORE AS BINARY XML

Hi,
I have a table with structure as:
CREATE TABLE XML_TABLE_1
ID NUMBER NOT NULL,
SOURCE VARCHAR2(255 CHAR) NOT NULL,
XML_TEXT SYS.XMLTYPE,
CREATION_DATE TIMESTAMP(6) NOT NULL
XMLTYPE XML_TEXT STORE AS BINARY XML (
TABLESPACE Tablespace1_LOB
DISABLE STORAGE IN ROW
CHUNK 16384
RETENTION
CACHE READS
NOLOGGING)
ALLOW NONSCHEMA
DISALLOW ANYSCHEMA
TABLESPACE Tablespace2_DATA
- So HOW do I find the total size occupied by this table. Does BINARY storage work as LOB storage. i.e. I need to consider USER_LOBS as well for this.
OR foll. will work
select segment_name as tablename, sum(bytes/ (1024 * 1024 * 1024 )) as tablesize_in_GB
From dba_segments
where segment_name = 'XML_TABLE_1'
and OWNER = 'SCHEMANAME'
group by segment_name ;
- Also if I am copying it to another table of same structure as:
Insert /*+ append */ into XML_TABLE_2 Select * from XML_TABLE_1.
Then how much space in ROllbackSegment do I need. Is it equal to the size of the table XML_TABLE_1?
Thanks..

I think foll query calculates it right while including the LOB storage as:
SELECT SUM(bytes)/1024/1024/1024 gb
FROM dba_segments
WHERE (owner = 'SCHEMA_NAME' and
segment_name = 'TABLE_NAME')
OR (owner, segment_name) IN (
SELECT owner, segment_name
FROM dba_lobs
WHERE owner = 'SCHEMA_NAME'
AND table_name = 'TABLE_NAME')
It's 80 GB for our Table with XMLType Column.
But for the second point:
Do we need 80GB of UNDO/ROLLBACK Segment for performing:
Insert /*+ append */ into TableName1 Select * from TableName;
Thanks..

OID users ( EUS) problem with grant create table with admin

Hi,
We activated enterprise users in the OID.
There is a role APP_ADMIN that has the following grants:
create user
drop user
create table with admin option
this is for an application that creates BI schemas, so it needs to be able to create other users.
I have granted these to a local role, and the user has access to the local role, thanks to the OID setup.
The create and drop user work.
however, the grant create table to another user does not work.
Is there an issue with 'with admin option' grants in Enterprise user security?
Regards,
Peter

If I grant
grant create table to test_role with admin option;
it does not work
if I grant
GRANT GRANT ANY PRIVILEGE to test_role WITH ADMIN OPTION;
it does work.
The test command as user with test_role is:
grant create table to test_usr;
very strange!
If the user is a standard user and I create role test_role
and grant create table to test_role with admin option it works.
but if I convert the user to an EUS user and the same privilege is given to the role ( role is granted to a global role to an enterprise role)
it doesnt work

Unable to create table with column default value with date interval

Please help to create table with calculated date defaullt value:
CREATE TABLE emp (
birth_date DATE DEFAULT sysdate + interval '3' day NOT NULL
or
CREATE TABLE emp (
some_date DATE,
birth_date DATE DEFAULT some_date NOT NULL
or
CREATE TABLE emp (
some_date DATE,
birth_date DATE DEFAULT some_date + interval '3' day NOT NULL

I'm afraid this is not possible; as per the SQL Reference, TimesTen only supports 'constant expressions' for the DEFAULT clause and none of these are constant expressions.

Problem CREATE TABLE with PRIMARY KEY Still in Trouble ! Please Help!

Hi there !
I use the orcle 8i, and i don't know why i can't create table with any primary key EXample:
SQL> CREATE TABLE O_caisses
2 (No_caisse NUMBER(3) constraint caisses_pk PRIMARY KEY,
3 NB_BILLETS NUMBER(5)
4 )
5 /
CREATE TABLE O_caisses
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-18008: cannot find OUTLN schema
***********some Debuger show me this way: *********************
Well there r certain point u got to notice when creating a table with constraints.
1) U can create table with COLUMN level constraint.
2) U can create table with TABLE level constraint.
3) In COLUMN level constraint u can't give a constraint a name
but only mention the type of constraint.
4) In TABLE level constraint u can give a name to constraint.
Following are the examples of both
--COLUMN LEVEL
CREATE TABLE O_caisses
(No_caisse NUMBER(3) PRIMARY KEY,
NB_BILLETS NUMBER(5));
--TABLE LEVEL
CREATE TABLE O_caisses
(No_caisse NUMBER(3),
NB_BILLETS NUMBER(5),
constraint pk_caisse primary key (No_caisse));
********************And this is another one:*****************
SQL>grant create any outline to username;
BUT the problem is still present, i don't know what to do now !
Please could some body help me !
Thanks alot!
Luong.

The clue is in the error message: the OUTLN schema is missing.
This is something Oracle 8i introduced to help manage the CBO (or soemthing equally geeky and internal). For some reason your database no longer has this user. It ought to be created automatically during installation (or upgrade) but catproct may not have completed probably or some over zealous admin type has dropped it.
Solution is to re-install (or re-upgrade) as you cannot create this user on their own. Alas.

How to create table with dynamic rows

Hi Ppl,
I have an array lets say with length of n. I want to creata table with 2 columns and no of rows = array length.
lets say array length is 3 ( array[0] = 1, array[1] = 2, array[2] = 3) so the table should have 2 columns and 3 rows.
After creation of table I want to display each array value in each row.
Can somebody help me in this asap.
Thanks \
Ashish

Hi, Thanks for reply... actually this is one part of rtf. I have put values from xml to an array and now I want to create a table with no of rows = length of array. so here xml will not be useful. could you pls think of it without xml.
result is like
lets says below is the array
array[0] = a
array[1] = b
array[2] = c
array length = 3
so there should be a table of 2 coulmns and 3 rows. Second column of first row will show 'a', Second column of second row wil show 'b' and Second column of third row will show 'c'.
Hope this is useful.

How to create table with row type in smart forms

How to create table with row type in smart forms with out line type
please explain me the procedure

HI,
A table type describes the structure and functional attributes of an internal table in ABAP. In ABAP programs you can reference a table type TTYP defined in the ABAP Dictionary with the command DATA <inttab> TYPE TTYP. An internal table <inttab> is created in the program with the attributes defined for TTYP in the ABAP Dictionary.
A table type is defined by:
its line type, that defines the structure and data type attributes of a line of the internal table
the options for managing and accessing the data ( access mode) in the internal table
the key ( key definition and key category) of the internal table
The row type is defined by directly entering the data type, length and number of decimal places or by referencing a data element, structured type ( structure, table or view) or other table type. Or the row type can be a reference type.

hi SRK
assumptions: both the table structures are the same.
                      the primary keys are the same.
data: begin of itabA.
         include structure A.
data: end of itabA.
data: begin of itabB.
         include structure B. <<<<< if needed.
data: end of itabB.
      select * from A into table itab.
      delete table B.
       modify table B by itab.
The structure of Itab will the same structure of the Ztable we are updating.
in the above case it will be of type B,

Luong,
Your syntax is fine. It looks like you don't have the correct database privileges to create the table. The error message you're getting suggests that you don't have CREATE ANY OUTLINE privileges. You should log in as a user than can grant these privileges and give yourself the correct privileges. I think the syntax is
SQL>grant create any outline to username;

ORA-00904 on CREATE TABLE with virtual column based on XMLTYPE content

Hello,
this is another one for the syntax gurus...
Trying the following, fails with ORA-00904: "MESSAGE"."GETROOTELEMENT": invalid identifier
CREATE TABLE XML_TEST_VIRT
   MSG_TYPE         GENERATED ALWAYS AS (MESSAGE.GETROOTELEMENT()) VIRTUAL,
   MESSAGE XMLTYPE             NOT     NULL,
   IE906    XMLTYPE             DEFAULT NULL
   XMLTYPE COLUMN MESSAGE STORE AS SECUREFILE BINARY XML
   XMLTYPE COLUMN IE906   STORE AS SECUREFILE BINARY XML
/while this one succeeds
CREATE TABLE XML_TEST_VIRT
   MSG_TYPE         GENERATED ALWAYS AS (EXTRACT(MESSAGE, '/*').GETROOTELEMENT()) VIRTUAL,
   MESSAGE XMLTYPE             NOT     NULL,
   IE906    XMLTYPE             DEFAULT NULL
   XMLTYPE COLUMN MESSAGE STORE AS SECUREFILE BINARY XML
   XMLTYPE COLUMN IE906   STORE AS SECUREFILE BINARY XML
/The GETROOTELEMENT member function of SYS.XMLTYPE is declared as "DETERMINISTIC PARALLEL_ENABLE" so the method getting called is not the problem as the 2nd case proves.
Using the column MESSAGE which is of type XMLTYPE directly seems to be the problem. But the question is "why". The EXTRACT function result is of type XMLTYPE and calling its member works, the column is also of type XMLTYPE yet calling its member fails...
Thanks in advance for any insights on this.
Best Regards
Philip
