Dbms_lob and line size problem

Hi,
below is a simple function which returns a CLOB.
When I call this function from sqlplus and spool the result in a
file via the SPOOL command I get a line break after 80 characters.
When I replace in the function the CLOB type with a VARCHAR2 type
the whole TESTSTRING is printed on ONE line.
I do specify 'SET LINESIZE 200' in both cases and the length of
TESTSTRING is smaller than 200 characters.
How can I increase the line size for the CLOB case ?
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION GetSimple (
RETURN CLOB
IS
RESULT CLOB;
TESTSTRING CONSTANT VARCHAR2(4000) := '123456789_123456789_123456789_123456789_123456789_123456789_123456789_123456789_AFTER_LINEBREAK' ;
BEGIN
-- create CLOB for RETURN
dbms_lob.createtemporary(RESULT, TRUE);
dbms_lob.writeappend(RESULT, length(TESTSTRING), TESTSTRING);
RETURN RESULT;
END GetSimple;
/

problem solved !
I had to add
SET LONGCHUNKSIZE 4096;
default is 80

  • Printing and scanning size problems (half size)

    Hello,
    I am having an issue with my Pixma MP170.  When printing multiple pages or scanning a paper document, the size come out really small all of a sudden and two pages will be together in one print or scan.   I looked for updated drivers but that doesn't look to be the issue and the problem pesists.
    I tried to reset the printer to default but nothing. 
    Not sure how to proceed.
    Thanks for any suggestion.

    I have had something very like your problem.
    Mine is printing quarter size in landscape and is also not scanning or doing copies at the moment..
    I can find no way of setting it and it ignores all settings sent from the computer.
    It printed one test page correctly and once I tried printing a small text file it came out small and in landscape and now even the test page is also small and also in landscape.
    I am tempted to look inside for an engineering jumper or backup battery.
    Mine is an MP270.

  • Regular expression and line break problem

    Hi friends,
    I was trying out one regular expression in java but, for some reasons its not working. The test string looks something like this in the eclipse watch window:-
    Test string:-*
    Content-Disposition: form-data; name="name"\n\nOmkar\n|
    In the above test string the last character is a pipe symbol.
    And the java code i have written is: -
    code:
        public static void getParameterValue(String paramName, String testParameter) {
                  String parameterRegex = "name=\""+paramName+"\"(.*)|";
                  Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(parameterRegex,Pattern.DOTALL);
                  Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(testParameter);
                  boolean isFound = matcher.find();
                  if (isFound) {
                       System.out.println("The parameter value is : "+matcher.group(1));
             }After, the debug line moves over the first line in this method, the value contained in the "parameterRegex" string variable is:-
    Regex:-*
    name="name"(.*)|
    However, my SOP statement, prints null....even though, "isFound" variable is true....can someone please explain me what could be the problem, where i am going wrong ?....
    I have even, set the DOTALL option for the regex.
    please some one help me!

  • N96 predictive text and line 2 PROBLEMS

    Just upgraded from N95 to N96 on Orange UK, I have always had Nokias and for years I have been holding down the # key to quickly change from Line 1 to Line 2 or visa versa, now it takes an age to go through the menus to change. Any one know where the shortcut is for Line 2 please, also I cannot find predictive text yet anyone know where that is please - or is this an unfinished phone where some of the important bits have been left off. Help Please.

    @Barney: The (#)hash shortcut can only be activated thru the firmware of the phone. I have a N80 and just changed the firmware. In my old FW the (#) shortcut changed to and from silent mode; In the new FW the shortcut changes the line.
    In order to change your firmware to on that has ALS (the feature you want) you may have to do a little research and find the correct FW and possibly change your product code. The former is supported by Nokia and the latter voids your warranty.
    Feel free to ask any questions as I have a few for you. I live in the US, and our service providers do not support two lines. For the past 10 years I have carried two phones and always wondered about 'Line 2'. I am in the process of doing some research on the subject and am curious about how it works on the your side of the pond. Just for starters here are some questions:
    Can your phone receive calls on both lines simultaneously?
    Does changing your line only change the outgoing number?
    Is the feature solely based on the SIM card or must it be network supported?
    Do you have a special SIM card for this feature? (dual IMSI)
    Thanks

  • Urgent ! Speed and image size problem.

    Dear Java Guru,
    I have the speed caused by:
    param.setCompression(TIFFEncodeParam.COMPRESSION_JPEG_TTN2);
    If use:
    param.setCompression(TIFFEncodeParam.COMPRESSION_DEFLATE);
    It will be 6 times faster, but the image size is bigger.
    But we need to keep the image size very small, say the COMPRESSION_JPEG_TTN2
    allows the size to be 2714kb for 20 pages (Grayscale at 100dpi resolution). Is there a compression method that allows the image size to be 1500kb for 20 pages, yet at the time of encode, it is as fast as _DEFLATE method ?
    Please help !!! our case is urgent
    Thanks in advance.

  • Adding extension "line-size 255" to a standard report on the first line

    Hi Experts,
    i want to modify the statment  from Report ztest1 message-id zm to Report ztest1 message-id zm and line-size 255.
    I am going to add the extension line-size 255 to the report statement in a standard report. There are no enhancement points near the first line. I have access key available, so i can make the changes to core mod.
    The problem is that if i run the report in background, out of the 8 fields, i only see the first 6 columns in the spool. remaining 2 fields are truncated.
    The reason for truncation is bcoz the line-size extension is not given to the report. What procedure do i have to follow to add the extension line-size 255?

    HI,
    You do not need any enhancement for it.
    If you have the access key then just add the additon line-size 255 to the repport statement.

  • Extraction of font-sizes and line height is completely bugged.

    Hello,
    I have been using projectparfait / (now assets) since a very long time and I must say it changed my whole workflow regarding front end development. Being able to quickly look up the font-sizes and line height is/was for me one of the most valuable features. Now since a little while, all the font-sizes/line heights have a scaling factor applied to it which is more than annoying, it basicly make this tool useless to me, there are still features like the measuring tool which are great but  ultimately i have to open the files with photoshop which I try to avoid as much as I can.
    It would be great if you guys could look into this.
    Best regards Thomas

    Hi Futureburo, sorry that you're having problems with Extract!
    Just to check, have you changed the Preferred Font Unit or Base Font Size? That would change the measurements your getting in the CSS.
    If not would you mind sending me the PSD you're having trouble with? You can get a link from the top right:
    and either message me or post a reply here.

  • ALV Report Print problem after 255 character line size

    Hi ABAP Gurus,
    I have created one alv report where i am getting output more then 255 character line size.
    so whenever i tried to print this report it print only line upto first 255 character and truncated after it in printing.
    is there any way i can print this report without truncation ....
    Thanks,
    Jack

    no there is no such way because you acan print at most 99 columns and utmost 255 characters .
    and alternative is take your filed in separate screen and make it appear through hotspot in another filedcatalog.then u will get more space .

  • InDesign Transparency Effects - Problems with Image Quality and File Size

    Hello,
    We are experiencing new problems exporting InDesign files to PDF.
    To summarize, though our largest workflow is to create files for offset printing, we also deliver our work to PDF for mounting on a website so our clients can download directly from the web. Our new problem is Transparency Effects, and creating a PDF that will both have a high quality (or resolution), and be a small file size.
    We are working with multiple page documents (24 to 48 pages), and would very much like to work with InDesign Transparency Effects. However, after spending much time testing a variety of PDF types, we are finding there is a radical difference between quality and file size. I was curious if anyone has had these problems, and if there is a simple answer. InDesign is an incredible program that allows us to design on the fly with Transparency Effects, but, if we are going to experience these problems, we will have to eliminate these wonderful tools.
    Can you help me or lead me to information online that will help.
    Thank you,
    Lain

    Please don't post in multiple forums. Your question has nothing to do with the PDF language and specifications, but rather PDF workflow or InDesign. I've responded to your other posting and am closing this thread.

  • Line size and line count

    Hi all,
    May i know about line size and line count impact on reports ?
    i mean depending on line sizes values i.e 200 etc hw it will effect report either in output display  or length ?
    and also ablout line count too.
    Thanks in advance.

    This information may help you
    *... LINE-SIZE width *
    Effect
    This addition specifies the line width of the basic list and details list of the program to width characters, and sets the system field sy-linsz to this value. The line width determines the number of characters in the line buffer as well as the number of columns in the list displayed. The value width must be a positive numeric literal. The maximum line width is 1,023 characters.
    When the LINE-SIZE is not specified, the line width of the basic list is set to a standard width based on the window width of the current Dynpro, but is at least as wide as a standard size SAP window. For the standard width, the contents of sy-linsz is 0. The LINE-SIZE overwrites the value of the like-named LINE-SIZE addition to the statement SUBMIT and can be overwritten during list creation with the like-named LINE-SIZE addition to the statement NEW-PAGE.
    Note
    The current maximum line width is stored in the constants slist_max_linesize of the type group SLIST. Also defined there is a type slist_max_listline of type c with length slist_max_linesize.
    *... LINE-COUNT page_lines[(footer_lines)] *
    Effect
    This addition specifies the page length for the basic list of the program to page_lines lines and fills the system field sy-linct with this value. If the LINE-COUNT is not specifed, and if page_lines are less than or equal to 0 or greater than 60,000, then the page length is set internally to 60,000. This setting overwrites the passed value of the like-named LINE-SIZE addition to the statement SUBMIT and can be overwritten during list creation with the like-named LINE-COUNT addition to the statement NEW-PAGE.
    If you optionally specify a number for footer_lines, a corresponding number of lines are reserved for the page footer, which can be described in the event block END-OF-PAGE.
    You must specify page_lines and footer_lines as numeric literals.
    Notes
    For screen lists, you should use the standard value since, as a rule, page breaks defaulted through LINE-COUNT are not adjusted to the window size.
    You should also use the standard value for print lists, so that you can still select the page size on a printer-specific basis. A print list should be created in such a way so that it can handle every page size.
    Specifying a fixed line count is only useful for form-type lists with a fixed page layout. Here, however, you should always check whether such forms can be created by other means, such as SAPScript forms.

  • Problem printing frames and lines

    Hi,
    I have problems when printing frames and lines. As far as I know in reports created by WRITE statement. Frame characters aren't printed at all, I mean not even spaces and so all layout of page is corrupted. It changes even with format types what I don't understand.
    Could you tell me basic concept of printing frames?
    I think some of box_drawings_* characters are used.
    I tried to change characters in character set used by device type of chosen output device. But I probably haven't done it right, because in comparing character sets it still compares values before my change.
    What is proper way of changing character set?
    Thank you for every reply.

    What format are you using for your output?
    Try using something other then HTML, Try HTMLCSS or PDF or RTF insead.
    Simply set the DESFORMAT parameter to one of these values.

  • Problem in Combo chart columns and line

    I select chart type is  combo in my vc model  and select data series is columns and line.
    I define 5 series in the chart.
    once i deployed the model the output shows the columns are overwrite in stacked position.
    eg:
    series 1: 10%
    series 2: 20%
    series 3: 45%
    series 4: 25%
    series 5 is line type
    but in the chart the only one column will display,its top value 45% and itself shows 10% and 20% in different color.Don't show the 25% value on that column.
    How to display the chart columns in clustered type in combo chart.
    thanks in advance
    Aravind.S

    Hi
    When you select 'Combo Chart' you will not get options for 'Stacked or Clustered'. By default it will be 'Stacked' chart only. Combo charts are generally used for less number of data series. Normally these charts are best suitable for 2 Data series only.
    Still in your case is there any reason to use 'Combo Chart'? Consider following points -
    1. If you want to use this type of chart then selction of 'Columns + Line' will be difficult because it will treat only 'Last Data Series' as line & all others will be columns & what you said problem will appear.
    2. Instead of that select 'Column + Lines', so that only first 'Data series' will be column & rest all will be 'Lines'. So that you will get better visibility in that graph.
    I think this will help you, If you have nay problem let me know.
    Regards
