EL function invocation

Hello,
I'm attempting to call a function in a top-level JSP file. I get the error, "Method getMsg for function func1 not found in class myELFuncClass." EL is enabled by default.
Could anyone please suggest what may be the problem?

Thanks for providing that resource URL but it's eye-blinding vague. After thorough experimentation, I realized that the class of the function must be in a named package. Is that correct?

DRG-11110: matches does not support functional invocation

Hi all,
We are working on the some prototype and we hit this road block.
When 'matches' was included with other conditions in query and used in pl/sql we are getting this error.
Oracle Text error: DRG-11110: matches does not support functional invocation
We tried including the hint /*+ index(t2 t2x) */ * (t2 table and t2x index ) in query but it didn't help.
The query works fine from SQL developer, but included in pl/sql gives the error 9 out of 10times.
Is there something that anyone can help
Regards,
Chaitanya.

The optimizer tends to choose functional invocation, which will cause the query to fail, when the structured portion of the query is most restrictive. So you will need to stop it from selecting what might otherwise be the most efficient plan at the times when you might have otherwise gained the most performance benefit from it. You want to try to force the optimizer to use the domain index to select the rows based on the matches criteria first, then evaluate the other conditions. You will need to experiment with things like your date filter to see if that causes funcitonal invocation or not. It will depend on how restricitve that is, whether there is an index on the date column and whether there is a small enough amount of data to do a full table scan benficially. You might benefit from hints but the "rownum > 0" seems to have the most consistent effect. You can use "explain plan for" on a query that fails to see what it was trying to do. Notice the difference in the execution plans below for the first failed query and the second working query that uses the domain index.

thanks in advanceWhat about it?
"WHERE ACT_STATUS='Y'" is the structured part of your query. Depending on how much that limits the rows, which is dependent upon the distribution of data, the optimizer may or may not choose functional invocation, which would cause the query to fail. The solution is to use a context index and contains. There is no reliable way to rewrite a query using a ctxcat index and catsearch to prevent it from failing at unpredictable times.
Additionally, the way that query is written, it will take the first 3 rows returned, then display them in random order. It will not order them randomly, then display the first rows from that randomly ordered set.

Function and procedure call overhead in PL/SQL

( I come from a programming background - java/c++ etc and not much PL/SQL )
Im trying to get a feel of how much extra cycles are spent if something is wrapped inside a function or procedure. I mean will it become considerably inefficient if the logic is within a function as opposed to be directly inline ?

I did some timings a few years ago and found procedure calls to be slightly more efficient than function calls, presumably due to the fact that functions must pass values back through the function invocation and procedures don't. This may have changed in more recent releases but you can check it yourself.
Set up a function and a procedure and use dbms_utility to get a starting and ending time marker (this will be the number of seconds from an arbitrary start point as microseconds; you will have to convert). Get a start time, loop through the calls a lot of times, get and end time, and subtract the end time from the start time.
The prevailing though is that use functions to return values and procedures to perform actions. You can use functions in SQL if written correctly but not procedures.

Using "v" function in row-level triggers

I have row-level triggers that do
l_user := nvl(v('APP_USER'),user);
to get the user that is running the app and record that in the table or wherever.
Since it is a row-level trigger, the "v" function will be called for each and every row even though it is going to be the same.
Is there a way to avoid this repeated execution of the v function?
Thanks

To avoid calls to the V function, put the values in hidden database text items in the HTML DB page and allow the normal insert/update HTML DB process pass it to your triggers. Then you refer to their values in table triggers with the ":new" method. Doing it this way you remove your V function invocations from your table-level triggers so the triggers do not have to determine from what environment they were being fired.
Example: In our applications we track user ID and date/time for row creates and last row modifications. The HTML DB page has a default value of :APP_USER for the row create user ID text item and default of TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DD-MON-RR') for the row create date text item. It also has conditional computations with the same values for last row modification user ID and last row modification date.

Is Using Static functions advisable from performance(speed) point of view

I was wondering if using a static function would be slower than using a normal function, especially when the function is to be accessed by multiple threads since the same memory area is used each time the static function is accessed from any of the threads. Thus is it right if I say that static functions are not suitable for multiThreaded access ?

I was wondering if using a static function would be
slower than using a normal function,Static functions are linked at compile time, while normal functions have to be linked based on the runtime type of the object they are called on. This lookup means that static function invocations are likely to be faster.
especially when
the function is to be accessed by multiple threads
since the same memory area is used each time the
static function is accessed from any of the threads.If you are talking about the code segment, where the function definition is held, there is only a single copy of each "normal" function as well. The code segment is also read-only, so there are no issues with multiple threads reading and executing the same code at the same time.
There are the normal issues with multi-threaded access to variables in static functions that exist with normal functions.
Thus is it right if I say that static functions are
not suitable for multiThreaded access ?Static functions are no safer than non-static functions in terms of thread safety. On the other hand, it is no more dangerous having multiple threads calling a static function than having multiple threads calling a non-static function on the same object. Exactly the same thread safety techniques apply whether you are working in a static or a non-static context.
With the above in mind, there is a great deal of design difference between static functions and non-static functions. They mean very different things when creating a system, and an operation that is suited for a static function is very likely not appropriate in a non-static context, and vice versa. The important thing is to make sure the design is appropriate for what the system is trying to do.
The most common use of static functions is for object creation... The Factory design pattern uses static methods to create objects of a given type, the Singleton design pattern uses static methods to allow access to itself.

There are no functions containing returntype = 'query' and access!

Hi there
I am trying to add a recordset after defining a datasource and I keep getting the error when I do a CFC query search
there are no functions containing returntype = 'query' and access!. I have attached an image to show the error messag I get.
Can someone help me fix this? my datasource shows up as correctly configured in cold fusion and the mysql database is well configured as well.

okay, adding another function to the CFC and saving it makes
it suddenly, magically visible to the function invocation window?
I don't understand.

Passing enums to functions without knowing the specific enum type

My application needs the function invocation feature by using reflection mechanism. The function parameters are restricted to string, int, float and enums. I am facing problems with enums.
Is there a way to invoke the function by passing specific enum type as parameter to the function.
For eg:
public void doProcess(int i, COLOR.RED){
I should be able to invoke the above function using reflections. How dynamic casting to COLOR can be done is the question here?

The application takes XML file as an input. This file has processing instructions. The processing instruction provides data about the class name, function name and parameters specifications like
Classname_FunctionName("String param", 123, COLOR.RED)
The application should invoke the corresponding library function by passing these parameters after assessing the correct types.

Can a mock method use it's argument in a callback function?

This question isn’t directly related to FlexUnit, but I assume someone can give me advice on this problem or an alternative. The problem is that I am trying to pass an instance of an object (AIRLoaderRequest) to a mocked object and need this mock object to invoke a method with the AIRLoaderRequest instance to the class (QueueManager) I am testing.
Hopefully the code below will highlight my attempt using Mockolate.
var request_a:AIRLoaderRequest = new AIRLoaderRequest("dummy_uri_a");
var loader:AIRLoader = nice(AIRLoader);
mock(loader).method("sendRequest").args( instanceOf(AIRLoaderRequest) )
     .calls(function(request:AIRLoaderRequest):void
          queuemanager.sendNextRequest(request);
queuemanager.airloader = loader;
queuemanager.queueRequest(request_a);//this will call loader.sendRequest()
The request parameter above is never defined. I understand that calls() takes a second parameter of an array that will be passed to the anonymous function, but I need something that will return the argument that queuemanager passed to it.
There is a 2-way composition relationship between QueueManager and AIRLoader, so they’re tightly coupled to each other. At any rate, to clarify, I need a test double to use its argument to invoke a method of the class being tested.
Thanks. If you need me to explain in more detail let me know, as l am sill learning the basics of unit testing and mocking.

myIP, there is at least two ways to do what you want at the moment.
The first is to use a CallsWithInvocation Answer which will call the given function with an Invocation object containing the name, arguments, and return value.
var request_a:AIRLoaderRequest = new AIRLoaderRequest("dummy_uri_a");
var loader:AIRLoader = nice(AIRLoader);
mock(loader).method("sendRequest").args( instanceOf(AIRLoaderRequest) )
    .answers(new CallsWithInvocationAnswer(function(invocation:Invocation):void {
        var request:AIRLoaderRequest = invocation.arguments[0] as AIRLoaderRequest;
        queuemanager.sendNextRequest(request);
queuemanager.airloader = loader;
queuemanager.queueRequest(request_a);//this will call loader.sendRequest()
The second is to use argument capturing using a Capture instance and the capture argument matcher.
var request_a:AIRLoaderRequest = new AIRLoaderRequest("dummy_uri_a");
var captured:Capture = new Capture();
var loader:AIRLoader = nice(AIRLoader);
mock(loader).method("sendRequest").args(capture(captured))
    .calls(function():void {
        var request:AIRLoaderRequest = captured.value as AIRLoaderRequest;
        queuemanager.sendNextRequest(request);
queuemanager.airloader = loader;
queuemanager.queueRequest(request_a);//this will call loader.sendRequest()
I'll add .callsWithInvocation(fn:Function) and .callsWithArguments(fn:Function) shortcuts to help with this scenario.

ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:

But it works sometimes as in STEP 5 and returns 1 row. It is never consistent. We would like to
provide access to this Table using View only. That is why we would like to get this query working consistently
using View.
Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated

This is a known issue with CTXCAT indexes. Sometimes the optimizer will "drive" the query off another index, and request results from the CTXCAT index on a row-by-row basis ("does the row with rowid NNNN satisfy this CATSEARCH condition?"). That's known as a functional lookup, and is not supported by the CTXCAT indextype.
The only solution is to try to persuade the optimizer to use a different plan which does not use a functional lookup. This can be achieved by the use of hints, or sometimes by collecting or deleting statistics on the table.

CATSEARCH only works with AND not with Or

Hello,
If I run the following query against my database it runs absolutely fine
SELECT * FROM
LOAD
WHERE ((catsearch (WILDCARD_SURNAMES, 'BRUCE', '') > 0)) AND PARSED_FORENAME1='ANTHONY'
But if I replace the "AND" with an "OR"
SELECT * FROM
LOAD
WHERE ((catsearch (WILDCARD_SURNAMES, 'BRUCE', '') > 0)) OR PARSED_FORENAME1='ANTHONY'
I get an Oracle error
ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:
DRG-10849: catsearch does not support functional invocation
DRG-10599: column is not indexed
I don't understand this, why can't I use OR?
Thanks for any help
Mark

The optimizer has chosen to drive the query from an index on parsed_forename1 or by doing a full table scan.
This causes it to try to invoke the ctxcat index in "functional lookup" mode - effectively saying "does rowid XXX match have the word "BRUCE" in WILDCARD_SURNAMES?"
However, CTXCAT indexes do not support functional lookups, so this is impossible.
The solution is to use a hint which persuades the optimizer to always drive the query from the CTXCAT index.
I know this is kind of messy, but our developers tell me there is no simple way to tell the optimizer that such as call is impossible (or infinitely expensive).

Unless, the object you are trying to create/replace is being locked by another database object, i dont see how you ll get this error... are you using read write / file access or any such code? can you share your code? it may be accessing a resource that is locked..
Do let me know if this helps
