Dynamic itab with Dynamic Where clause

Hi, Dear All,
Can someone provide a code extract for Dynamic where clause, i had already done with dynamic itab for a given set of fields, and i need to add where clause dynamically for a given field for a given range of values.
select (i_fields) into table <dyn_table>
from (p_table)
where (v_where).
In the above except the where clause, everything is done. Please help me.
with best regards
Mahesh

Row Level Security using BO SDK - Dynamic Group and Criteria (where clauses)

To the Universe Gurus out there:
I have a rather daunting task of implementing a Row Level Security on a number of tables within our project using BO XI R2 SP2 with SQLServer 2005. Given the nature of the requirements around this (listed below), I am going to go with BO SDK to accomplish the creation of Restrictions. That said, I need some insight into some of the problem areas I have listed below. Any help is much appreciated.
Background:
We have 11 tables that are to be restricted.
Each table is accessible to potentially 1..* group of users only.
For eg SALES is accessible to ALL_SALES members only.
Each row within each table is accessible to 1..* groups of users only. The restriction will occur on 2 columns Jurisdiction and LineID on SALES table.
For eg
1)Rows with NY Jurisdiction and LineID=123 are accessible to NY_SALES_ADMIN group only initially.
2)NY_ADMIN will then approve that the above rows be open to NY_SALES_INTERNAL group only. This approval in turn will call upon the BO SDK to add a new restriction for the group with appropriate where clause.
3)At a later point, the above rows will be opened to NY_SALES_EXTERNAL group also.
This same concept holds good a number of jurisdiction (more or less static) and a dynamic number of LineIDs. So, if 10000 rows of data corresponding to new LineID 999 and Jurisdiction AK are in the table now, they are initially accessible only to AK_SALES_ADMIN group only. No one else should be able to access it.
Results:
1) With the way I laid out the business rules above, I am ending up with 528 groups.
2) There is a restriction created for a unique combination of Jurisdiction and LineID for each table.
Problems/Questions:
How can I restrict access to the new rows to one group only. I know that I can let a certain group only look at certain data but how can I restrict that all others cannot look at the same.
AK_SALES_ADMIN can look at LineID=999 and Jurisdiction='AK'.
Do I use an Everyone group based restriction? If so, my Everyone group will end up with tons of restrictions. How will they be resolved in terms of priority.
Am I even thinking of this the right way or is there a more noble way to do this?
Regards

the connectinit setting should look something like this:
declare a date; begin vpd_setup('@VARIABLE('BOUSER')'); Commit; end;
The vpd_setup procedure (in Oracle) should look like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE procedure vpd_setup (p_user varchar)IS
BEGIN
DBMS_SESSION.set_vpd( 'SESSION_VALUES', 'USERID', p_user );
END vpd_setup;
Then you can retrieve the value of the context variable in your vpd functions
and set the vpd.

How to create dynamic DataTable with dynamic header/column in JSF?

Hello everyone,
I am having problem of programmatically create multiple DataTables which have different number of column? In my JSF page, I should implement a navigation table and a data table. The navigation table displays the links of all tables in the database so that the data table will load the data when the user click any link in navigation table. I have gone through [BalusC's post|http://balusc.blogspot.com/2006/06/using-datatables.html#PopulateDynamicDatatable] and I found that the section "populate dynamic datatable" does show me some hints. In his code,
// Iterate over columns.
        for (int i = 0; i < dynamicList.get(0).size(); i++) {
            // Create <h:column>.
            HtmlColumn column = new HtmlColumn();
            dynamicDataTable.getChildren().add(column);
            // Create <h:outputText value="dynamicHeaders"> for <f:facet name="header"> of column.
HtmlOutputText header = new HtmlOutputText();
header.setValue(dynamicHeaders[i]);
column.setHeader(header);
// Create <h:outputText value="#{dynamicItem[" + i + "]}"> for the body of column.
HtmlOutputText output = new HtmlOutputText();
output.setValueExpression("value",
createValueExpression("#{dynamicItem[" + i + "]}", String.class));
column.getChildren().add(output);
public HtmlPanelGroup getDynamicDataTableGroup() {
// This will be called once in the first RESTORE VIEW phase.
if (dynamicDataTableGroup == null) {
loadDynamicList(); // Preload dynamic list.
populateDynamicDataTable(); // Populate editable datatable.
return dynamicDataTableGroup;
I suppose the Getter method is only called once when the JSF page is loaded for the first time. By calling this Getter, columns are dynamically added to the table. However in my particular case, the dynamic list is not known until the user choose to view a table. That means I can not call loadDynamicList() in the Getter method. Subsequently, I can not execute the for loop in method "populateDynamicDataTable()".
So, how can I implement a real dynamic datatable with dynamic columns, or in other words, a dynamic table that can load data from different data tables (different number of columns) in the database at run-time?
Many thanks for any help in advance.

How to create a procedure to output REF CURSOR with any WHERE clause?

I have an requirement like this: I have huge query which need to reuse in my code more than 10 times. This SQL has about 50 lines. Thing is for those 10 odd times sometimes the WHERE clause changes (columns are the same). So I cannot create a view since SQL is not static.
I thought of writing a procedure with a WHERE_CLAUSE input para. I output a sys refcursor by adding the where clause. But I can't do it since you cannot add a where clause like that.
i.e.
PROCEDURE dynamyic_query (p_where_clause IN VARCHAR2, p_out_query OUT SYS_REFCURSOR ) IS
BEGIN
OPEN p_out_query FOR SELECT ......... FROM table WHERE || ' ' || p_where_clause;
END;The above gives error.
How to handle a situation like this???? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I tried this method:

PROCEDURE FORMS_TEXT_DYN_SQL_TEST(p_where_cluase IN VARCHAR2, p_out_cursor OUT SYS_REFCURSOR) IS
v_stmt VARCHAR2(1000);
BEGIN
v_stmt := 'SELECT tname FROM tab_test WHERE tname LIKE ''%ABS_V4%'' AND tabtype = :x';
OPEN p_out_cursor FOR v_stmt using p_where_cluase;
END;I create this code block and run it:
declare
v_tname varchar2(200);
out_cursor sys_refcursor;
begin
forms_text_dyn_sql_test('TABLE', out_cursor );
LOOP
    fetch out_cursor INTO v_tname;
    exit when out_cursor%NOTFOUND;
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(v_tname);
END LOOP;
end;
/I get correct output:
ABS_V4_P_ERROR_MESSAGES
ABS_V4_P_ORG_PARAM
ABS_V4_P_PARAMETER
ABS_V4_P_SYS_PARAMHowever, when I change the proc like this:
PROCEDURE FORMS_TEXT_DYN_SQL_TEST(p_where_cluase IN VARCHAR2, p_out_cursor OUT SYS_REFCURSOR) IS
v_stmt VARCHAR2(1000);
BEGIN
v_stmt := 'SELECT tname FROM tab_test WHERE tname LIKE ''%ABS_V4%'' AND :y';
OPEN p_out_cursor FOR v_stmt using p_where_cluase;
END;And run this code block:
declare
v_tname varchar2(200);
out_cursor sys_refcursor;
begin
forms_text_dyn_sql_test(' 1 = 1 ', out_cursor );
LOOP
    fetch out_cursor INTO v_tname;
    exit when out_cursor%NOTFOUND;
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(v_tname);
END LOOP;
end;
/I get error:
[1]: (Error): ORA-00920: invalid relational operator ORA-06512: at "ABS.FORMS_TEXT_DYN_SQL_TEST", line 6 ORA-06512: at line 5Looks like you can only put column_name = :z, column_name = :y type values. You cannot it seems replace it with any WHERE CLAUSE????

"create columns with a where clause" in BMM

Hi All,
I have a question about OBI EE Meta data layer.
We have OBIEE sitting on a Data Warehouse with a star schema.
Our Fact table holds the following fields...
EmployeeID
CompanyID
Measure ID
Measure Name
MEASURE
This is what we have in the physical layer, BMM layer and the presentation layer but I want to be able to "create columns with a where clause"
So my fact table in the presentation layer would look like this
Amount Sold
Unit Cost
Company Amount
I thought I could just create a logical column with
Amount Sold = Measure
where Measure Name = "Amount Sold"
But I can't seem to find any to do that.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Or you simply map your measure in the Logical Table source as something like :
CASE WHEN MEASURE_NAME = 'Amount Sold' THEN MEASURE ELSE 0 END.
You need to decide if you want the where clause adding in the Logical table source (be careful you will need a seperate LTS for each measure, this will mean more than one SQL being fired when you have more than one measure in the report).
Or you go with this case method on each measure, be able to have all the measures mapped in 1 LTS, include all those in the report and they will be retrieved by one SQL block.

Using SAMPLE with a WHERE clause

(Oracle 9iR2)
I am using the SAMPLE keyword in a SELECT statement with a WHERE clause. Is the sample extracted before or after applying the WHERE clause?
For example, if I have the statement:
SELECT emp_id FROM employees SAMPLE(10)
WHERE salary > 50000;
Does the database first extract a 10% sample of all the rows and then apply the salary filter on the sample (meaning it's possible that no rows are returned even though there are rows with salary > 50000)? Or does it return a 10% sample of the rows that meet the filter condition (meaning rows will always be returned as long as there are rows with salary > 50000)?

The sample is extracted before the where clause:
SQL> drop table sample_test;
Table dropped.
SQL> create table sample_test (id number, salary number);
Table created.
SQL>
SQL> begin
2 for i in 1..99 loop
3 insert into sample_test values (i, 100);
4 end loop;
5
6 insert into sample_test values (100, 1000);
7 end;
8 /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL>
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.

SQL> select * from sample_test sample(5)

Insert Row is visible in other VO with excluded where-clause

Hi,
i found something that makes me a little bit confusing about ADF BC...
TestCase:
Env:
JDev 10.1.2
HR Schema / Table "regions"
All Objects created ´by ADF BC Wizards
- ViewObject A and ViewObject B based on Entity "Regions"
- ViewObject A with WHERE-CLAUSE region_id=10 at DesignTime
- ViewObject B with NO WHERE-CLAUSE (select * from regions)
JUnitTest:
public void testInsertRow()
ViewObject viewA = fixture1.getApplicationModule().findViewObject("RegionsAView");
ViewObject viewB = fixture1.getApplicationModule().findViewObject("RegionsBView");
System.out.println("ViewA:"+viewA.getRowCount()); //-->0
assertTrue("Must 0 ! region_id = 10",viewA.getRowCount() == 0);
Row row = viewB.createRow();
row.setAttribute("RegionId",new Number(99));
row.setAttribute("RegionName","NRW");
viewB.insertRow(row);
System.out.println("ViewB:"+viewB.getRowCount()); // -> 5
System.out.println("ViewA:"+viewA.getRowCount()); // -> 1
//this assert failt !
assertTrue("Must 0 ! where clause is region_id = 10 and insert region_id was 99 ",viewA.getRowCount() == 0);
Is this a bug or feature ? Can anybody explain that behavior ? thx :)

Binding parameters to dynamic VO with PL/SQL API call with no where clause

Hi all,
I am required to change exisiting queries to queries with "bind" parameters. Some of our VOs are dynamic and with PL/SQL api calls like below:
String stmtStr = "selectXXX_API_UTILS.chk_urg_since_last_prg("
+ projectId + "," + PPCId + ",'XYZ_TASKS'," + taskId+ ")"
+" from dual ";
ViewObject tmpVO = transaction.createViewObjectFromQueryStmt(stmtStr);
In this regard, I am unsure how to bind the PPCId and taskId parameters to the VO. setWhereClauseParams() would not work here as there is now where clause.
Thanks in advance,
Srini

In case of preparedStatement, we mention bind parameters to be passed using "?". Then we pass paramters sequencially.
But in the your case following is enough:
int projectId = 100 ; (hardcoding values for example)
int taskId = 500 ;
String stmtStr = "selectXXX_API_UTILS.chk_urg_since_last_prg("
+ projectId + "," + PPCId + ",'XYZ_TASKS'," + taskId+ ")"
+" from dual ";

Hmmm, you may want some NVL's around those case statements such as..
       and scheduled_date <= NVL(case when :check_value = 1 then date '2009-04-16' end,scheduled_date)
       and scheduled_date >= NVL(case when :check_value = 1 then date '2009-04-06' end,scheduled_date)
       and scheduled_date = NVL(case when not :check_value = 1 then date '2009-04-16' end,,scheduled_date)or some such thing. Otherwise the comparisons with Null will just cause it all to fail.

Dynamically adding filters in where clause in sql server

Hello I have a question,
may be asked many times but could not find a thread,
I have 8 parameters,... and user can select any of these parameters they can select 3,4 or all 8.
I know we could use dynamic sql for this, because the sql is same.. just the where clause changes as how many parameters we are selecting,
i am using sql server 2012.. is there a easy way to manage this,
Please let me know.

Query SQL datastore with XML where clause source

Hope I am in the right place. New to Bus Obj Data Services Designer....I have cerated xml schemas, added it to the page as an xml source in. Mapped a test xml file and all is well there. I have added a query that grabs the xml.
I need to then query the MS SQL datastore ans use the data form the xml query as the where clause. How is this done? Or do I put a query on the datastore for all the data in a table then do anotehr query filtering one with the other? seems like that would be rather heavy and low performance. The results will then be sent back out as xml (schema and test file already set up as an xml out)
Thanks!

Thanks for the tips.
I'm trying to implement this option, using your ViewDefHelper.
I´m running into a problem though. After I create my dynamic View Object using a ViewDef, I need to create some view links.
So I get the AttributeDefs of the columns (source, and destination) from the method findAttributeDef (which is the whole purpose of performance in my post). This method is returning the correct Attribute Def, but when I create the view Link with the method createViewLinkBetweenViewObjects(java.lang.String vlName,
java.lang.String accessorName,
ViewObject master,
AttributeDef[] srcAttrs,
ViewObject detail,
AttributeDef[] destAttrs,
java.lang.String assocClause)
My destination query is generating the where clause as:
null = ?
Any Ideas what I'm doing wrong ?
Thanks again.

Dynamic table with dynamic drop-down list values

Hi,
I need to display a dynamic table with 2 columns on an interactive form.
My Context is defined as below:
Root
StudentData     0..n
StudentName
StudentCourses     0..n
Text
Value
The 1st column should display student name, 2nd column should display student courses. The courses will be different for each student. I populated the context properly. I checked it by printing them. My DDL is bound to "Student Courses".
When there is one row -> The DDL is populated with the courses of student 1 (as there is only one).
When there are more rows -> The DDLs for all the students are populated with all the courses of all the students.
I want to see the data populated like:
TEXTFIELD    DROP-DOWN LIST
Student 1------Student1-Course1
Student1-Course2
Student1-Course3
Student 2------Student2-Course1
Student2-Course2
Student2-Course3
I tried to do this in plain web dynpro using SVS.. it is also working similarly.
I have set the singleton property of nodes "StudentData" and "StudentCourses" to false.
Could any one tell me where I am going wrong?
Thanks
Ram

Ram,
I'm not sure how much this will help, but I know I had the same problem as you when I tried to get a similar thing working, but I can't remember which of the many changes I made fixed the problem, so I'll just show you my code and perhaps you can see if anything is different than yours.
Here's where I'm creating my dropdown - in my case EastNew_RegOut is the same as your StudentData, and RateTypeDropValues is the same as your StudentCourses (the comments in the code are not meant to sound bossy to you, this is actually an example piece of code that other developers in my company "steal", so I have to put very specific instructions in there!):
int nodeSize = wdContext.nodeEastNew_RegOut().size();
for (int i = 0; i < nodeSize; i++) {
     //create an element called "table", that's the element at i. So, basically it's a row. Maybe I should have
     //called it "row" instead of table.
     IPublicDeviceExchange.IEastNew_RegOutElement table = (IPublicDeviceExchange.IEastNew_RegOutElement)wdContext.nodeEastNew_RegOut().getElementAt(i);
     //this line of code just executes an rfc that finds out what rates need to be in the dropdown for this particular row
     executeRateTypeDropdown(rateCategory, table.getNum(), wdContext.currentEastNew_MeterOutElement().getReggrp());
     //clear out what's already in there before we re-populate it.
     table.nodeRateTypeDropValues().invalidate();
     //now, I'm looping through all the values in the *actual* rate type dropdown (the one that's an RFC, populated by the above "execute" method)
     for (int j = 0; j < wdContext.nodeEastRatetype_DropdownOut().size(); j++) {
          //for each element in the *actual* Rate type dropdown, I'm going to create an element in my node that I created
          //and set the values from the *actual* one as the values in my node.
                    IPublicDeviceExchange.IRateTypeDropValuesElement element = wdContext.createRateTypeDropValuesElement();
          IPublicDeviceExchange.IEastRatetype_DropdownOutElement rateTypeOut = (IPublicDeviceExchange.IEastRatetype_DropdownOutElement)wdContext.nodeEastRatetype_DropdownOut().getElementAt(j);
          element.setText(rateTypeOut.getText());
          element.setValue(rateTypeOut.getRatetype());
          //here's another key - notice how I don't say wdContext.nodeRateTypeDropValues() - it's the one that's
          //directly off that table I created earlier - the thing that's essentially a row in my newReg table.
          //So, what I'm doing here is adding that new element I created to the dropdown FOR THAT ROW!
          //(btw, if you're trying to duplicate this, and this method does not exist for your "table" object, it's
          //probably because you didn't listen to me above and you didn't create your node with the singleton property
          //set to false.)
          table.nodeRateTypeDropValues().addElement(element);
As for my layout... my table is bound to the EastNew_RegOut node, and the column with the dropdown is bound to RateTypeDropValues.Value (that's probably obvious, but there you have it anyway)
Finally, in my context, EastNew_RegOut is singleton = true (I was surprised about this, actually, I would have assumed it was false) with a selection of 0..1 and RateTypeDropValues has singleton set to false with a selection of 0..1
I hope that helps to some degree!

Outer join with a WHERE clause

hi, this is driving me round the bend. I thought i was ok with sql joins and the like, but im really struggling on this one.
I have table A (for argument sake tblRegion) and table B (tblBranch). if i want to return everything i would do something like this:-
select * from tblRegion join tblBranch on tblRegion.id=tblBranch.reg_id.
If i wanted to return all regions even if they do have a branch associated i would do something like this:-
select * from tblRegion left outer join tblBranch on tblRegion.id=tblBranch.reg_id.
My problem is, I want to return all Regions and use a WHERE clause to narrow the Branch results.
I've tried something like this but it doesnt work
select * from tblRegion left outer join tblBranch on tblRegion.id=tblBranch.reg_id WHERE branch.name like 'LONDON%'
Is there anyway i can return all branches where name is like LONDON, and STILL return all Region if there is no data for that Region?
Do i need to use a nested select statement maybe?
Many thanks in anticipation somebody will save me from my current madness. David

Check this link. It explains the most common problem/coding error while using outer join.

Effectively in your case you need the following condition in your where clause
where nvl(branch.name,'LONDON') like 'LONDON%'
Hope that helps.

Dynamic accordion with dynamic datagrid

I’m trying to create a dynamic accordion with embedded
datagrids in each accordion area. I have the base working but have
2 problems I can’t seem to figure out.
Bases; the accordion uses a repeater and vbox with a custom
component from a webservice result set to create the accordion. The
custom component has another webservice that gets a value from the
repeater to pass it to the custom component.
My 2 problems:
1. how do I prevent the custom component from running the
webservice until the accordion item is clicked or the area is
visible? Otherwise I end up will a bunch of queries hitting the DB
and if there is several items for the accordion and many items from
the datagrid its slower.
2. how can I get the datagrid query to refresh when the
accordion item is clicked? Because the data may change I am not
able to see the updated data unless I reload the entire
application.
1 thing I did try. With the tab control you can use the
show() event and the data will refresh just fine, but with the
accordion, the show() event does not seem to fire. Its as if they
are all visible.
Any help here would be much appreciated, I’ve been
racking my brain for days now and I sure it is something simple
that I am missing. Thanks in advance.
See the example code below.
the application code:

</mx:VBox>
</mx:Repeater>

Perhaps you could use the change event of the accordion, or
the show event of the child containers?

Performance with unspecific where clause

Hi gurus,
at the moment I do have a sql statement on a view with an unspecific where clause like
select from <view> where <textfield> like %whatIsearch%
The text field is not in the key fields which are used to create the view. An index on <textfield> does not help, because the where clause starts with a %.
Other databases like Oracle do finish the statement within seconds, maxdb needs minutes.
I there a possibility to speedup the statement in MaxDB? (Besides telling the user to use better qualified statments.)
Why is Oracle that fast?
Thanks for you help.
Best regards
Christian G

Hi Christian,
In that case Oracle can take advantage from beeing able to brute-force read many blocks at once (aka multiblock read).
When we assume that there is an index on the oracle database available, then Oracle will likely decide to read all blocks of that index into the cache and look for matches then. It's called Fast Full Scan.
It's not a very efficient method to address specific rows, but for this requirement it works well.
Anyhow, you should be aware that this way of evaluating rows does not scale very well - in fact it get's more expensive with every block the index grows.
MaxDB cannot easily read all blocks in a row, due to the fact that the pages are mixed over all data volumes. This way of storing data eliminates the need for reorganisations and evens out I/O traffic, but it comes for the price of beeing less performant when people use such unefficient predicates.
Because of this and the way who indexes work in MaxDB (primary keys instead of rowids), MaxDB does only consider an index access for like conditions that start with a '%' when the query can be answered by only accessing the index (index only access).
What you may try out to improve the situation is to activate the experimental read-ahead or prefetch feature, which is currently available in MaxDB 7.6. only (not in 7.5 or in 7.7).
By setting READAHEAD_TABLE_THRESHOLD to a value >0, say 128, MaxDB can choose to
perform table scans (no index scans!) in parallel with multiple server tasks for all table scans that are expected to pass the threshold (unit here is pages as visible in the execution plan of your statement).
That way the usertask running the query can work on checking the data in the pages, while the server task load the pages into the cache.
Another approach would be to have the DB Cache big enough so that most of the table would be found in the cache.

Lars
