Escape & character
I have a problem to display the & character in a webpage.
I know that it can be replaced to & to display it correctly.
Do you know if oracle database has a function to replace it and make all the posible replacements (< , > , ...) ?
Thanks

Query of Queries (QofQ) Escaped Character Problem
Hello All,
I'm trying to run a query or queires (QofQ) and I'm doing a
LIKE comparison that looks for bracket characters ([ ]) within a
string, however ColdFusion is ignoring the brackets. How can I
escape the bracket character? So far I have only been able to
escape the percent sign based on the ColdFusion Live Docs. The
error message I get when I run the query below is:
Invalid Escape Sequence. Valid sequence pairs for this escape
character are: "\%", or "\_".
Here is the query:
<cfquery dbtype="query" name="getLogs">
SELECT *
FROM GetLogs
WHERE Description LIKE '%\[User:#UserID#\]%' ESCAPE '\'
</cfquery>
Thanks for your help!You are correct. If you leave the brackets in the LIKE
statement, it will return results as if the brackets weren't there
at all.
Perhaps I need to figure out the ASCII character value of the
bracket and include it that way i.e. #Char(?)# where the question
mark would be the numerical value of that character.
My temporary solution has been to leave off the starting
bracket:
<cfquery dbtype="query" name="getLogs">
SELECT *
FROM GetLogs
WHERE Description LIKE '%user:#UserID#]%'
</cfquery>
This has (so far) returned the results i'm looking for
although its not as 100% accurate without that beginning [ in the
LIKE statement. -

as per my knowledge.....................
When you create a WSDL with the help of a wizard. In the Integration Directory, choose Tools -> Define Web Service to enter the wizard.
On Propose URL button, as this genertated URL default Point to Entegration Engine.. SO already proformance wise Good.
If You want to Point your URL to adapter engine , use below given URL this will point ur incoming soap message to SOAPadapter sender channel

Can Linux recognize the escape character?
Hi,
It's possible that this problem doesn't belong here. But please give it a try.
I am developing an project using JSP. It includes image uploading. after image uploading, I use a javascript function popUp(url, ...) to open a new window and display this image. The very strange thing is that, sometimes the link can work, open a new window and display the image while sometimes the link can't work, or it only works for one time, then it fails. I couldn't find the reason yet. it works on IE, and not on Netscape and also not work on Linux OS while do work on Window2000. Can somebody take a look at the following link and tell me how to change it to make sure it is work on Linux OS and netscape. What's the difference between OS and windows to specify a String(that is, url of a link). The linux OS seems interperte \" to ", so it cannot recognize the full url.
The link is :
imageLink[i] = "<a href='showForm' onclick=\"popUp('" + request.getContextPath() + "/displayForm.jsp?filename=" + sdb.getImageFileName(i)+"&fileDesc=" +sdb.getImageDesc(i) + "', 'showForm', '600', '450', 'yes'); return false;\">"+sdb.getImageDesc(i)+"</a>";
Thanks in advance!
jmlingLinux will recognize the escape character. It looks like you might have other difficulties with your imageLink tag. For example, I think you need to use tags when you use Java inside your html or javascript..
onclick=\"popUp(" + <%= request.getContextPath() %> + "/displayform.jsp?... -
How to use escape character in update statement.
Hi All,
I'm trying to update table using following sql update statement, but everytime it's asking me for the input due to the '&' value in below sql.
UPDATE xyz_xyz
SET NAME = 'ABC & PQR'
WHERE ID = (SELECT ID
FROM abc_abc
WHERE NAME = 'C & PQR');Please let me know how to use escape character syntax or let me know if there is any alternative solution.
Thanks,
VishwasHi,
By default, & marks a substitution variable name.
If you're not using substitution variables in that statement (or, if this is in PL/SQL, in that entire package or procedure) then the easiest thing to do is just diable substitution variables; then & will be a normal character:
SELECT DEFINE OFF
UPDATE xyz_xyz
SET NAME = 'ABC & PQR'
WHERE ID = (SELECT ID
FROM abc_abc
WHERE NAME = 'C & PQR');
SET DEFINE ONIf you can't do that, then & is always taken literally if it comes right before a single-quote, so you could say:
UPDATE xyz_xyz
SET NAME = 'ABC &' || ' PQR'
WHERE ID = (SELECT ID
FROM abc_abc
WHERE NAME = 'C &' || ' PQR');There is a SQL*Plus "SET ESCAPE" command, too, but if you use it, you have to worry about whether the escape character is to be taken literally or not.
SET ESCAPE \Yet another alternative is to make some other character, such as ~, mark the substitution variables:
SET DEFINE ~Read all about them in the SQL*Plus manual.

What is the escape character for DOT in java regex?
How to specify a dot character in a java regex?
. itself represents any character
\. is an illegal escape characterThe regex engine needs to see \. but if you're putting it into a String literal in a .java file, you need to make it \\., as Rene said. This is because the compiler also uses \ as an escape character, so it will take the first \ as escaping the second one, and remove it, and the string that gets passed onto the regex will be \.

Escape character for apostrophe ' in JDBC receiver channel
Hi all,
We have Proxy to JDBC scenario in our project. This interface is working fine with unicode data but when there is an apostrophe( ' ) coming in any of the field values ( ex: DOWTHERM 'J' MODEL19QAGB1G ) , the message is failing in receiver JDBC channel.
can anyone please tell us how to handle single quote in JDBC receiver channel.
I have read in SAP help documentation that apostrophe is a reserved character in SQL syntax and is therefore replaced by an escape character if it occurs within value strings. There is a option to JDBC receiver communication channel under "SQL SYNTAX PARAMETER" to specify the escape character for apostrophe.
Can any please tell us which value needs to be maintained in the channel to avoid this error.
Regards
JagruthiHi Prateek,
Thanks a lot for you inputs.
This issue is solved now. We have replaced single quote with two single quotes and then did the hasQuote mapping as described in the blog.
/people/prateek.srivastava3/blog/2009/04/02/unicode-handling-for-ms-sql-server
No value needs to be maintained in channel(SQL SYNTAX PARAMETER ).
But just want to understand the difference between replacing the ' with '' in mapping and using SQL SYNTAX PARAMETER option in communication channel.
Both should ideally result in same output. But it didnu2019t work when we tried with two single quotes in SQL SYNTAX PARAMETER (Escape Symbol for Apostrophe) in communication channel without doing anything in mapping.

Querying a text field with an escape character in it.
I want to retrive a the search results from the database with the search string being something like
say "{2.5}"
select cola from tableX where contains(cola, '{{2.5}}', 1)>0)
I tried to parse the string with another escape character - ie i modified the search string to like this
{\{2.5\}}. Doing so i am getting a wrong result. That is it is ignoring the two braces and giving me results that contains only 2.5.
Please give me a solution
Thanks in Advance.
VenkatYou need to define the braces as PRINTJOINS characters, otherwise they are stripped from the term during both indexing and query processing, making "{2.5}" identical to "2.5"
Try this example:
set echo on
drop table x;
create table x (x varchar2(50));
insert into x values ('2.5');
insert into x values ('{2.5}');
exec ctx_ddl.drop_preference('mylex')
exec ctx_ddl.create_preference('mylex', 'basic_lexer')
exec ctx_ddl.set_attribute('mylex', 'printjoins', '{}')
create index xi on x(x) indextype is ctxsys.context
parameters ('lexer mylex');
select x from x where contains (x, '2.5') > 0;
select x from x where contains (x, '\{2.5\}') > 0; -

Escape Character in ODBC Connections?? HELP!
Hi All,
I have a problem : we have a C++ app here that is supposed to attach to an Oracle 8i or 9i database here via a standard ODBC connection.
When this app attempts to do something like this:
INSERT INTO MyTable (MyRow) Values('[testing]')
it fails - it does not like the square brackets in the command. when I copy this into SQL Plus, of course, it runs just fine.
the ODBC link also doesn't like this:
INSERT INTO MyTable (MyRow) Values('/[testing/]') either
or this:
INSERT INTO MyTable (MyRow) Values('[[testing]]') either
or this:
INSERT INTO MyTable (MyRow) Values('`testing`') either
in fact, it appears the following are all reserved characters that oracle's ODBC driver can't handle:
` ' " \ / [ ]
My questions are :
1) Can I find a definitive list of these (Oracle documentation is good on reserved WORDS, but poor on reserved CHARACTERS)
2) what can I use to set an escape character within my ODBC SQL? Is this something I can tweak on the ODBC DSN cofiguration? I know in SQL*Plus you can just say
SET ESCAPE ON
SET ESCAPE "\"
But you can't do that on every SQL Query getting sent through ODBC can you?
Please help!
IThanks, but thats not really answering the two
questions I posed, is it? Well you are asking the wrong questions.
The quoted example was just
that, an example. The actual app is calling stored
procedures and not doing simple SQL statements. Using
bound variables is not really an option because the
number and type of parameters being sent down change
continually. This is no reason to not use bind variables. If you do not use bind variables and this is an OLTP database then scaling will not be an option for your application. It can also raise potential security holes due to SQL injection.
The site you quoted is to do with
obtaining recordsets back from stored procedures. We
do not need to obtain recordsets back from stored
procedures. Yes and it also shows how to bind input variables in ODBC calls, does the presence of record sets somehow render this invisible?
>
shall I repeat myself:-
My questions are :
1) Can I find a definitive list of these (Oracle
documentation is good on reserved WORDS, but poor on
reserved CHARACTERS)
As you can run the command in SQL*Plus it should indicate that it is not a reserved character as far as Oracle is concerned. Therefore looking in the Oracle documentation will not get you anywhere. You will need to refer to the documentation for your ODBC driver and the ODBC specification.
2) what can I use to set an escape character within
my ODBC SQL? Is this something I can tweak on the
ODBC DSN cofiguration? I know in SQL*Plus you can

Export Data Using Escape Character
Hi All
I have got a requirement where i need to export data from oracle with escape character.
eg. I am using a delimiter 237(í) and if the same character is present in data it should be escaped by escape character eg. /.
Once this file will get created i need to load this file in Netezza database which supports escape character.
Data in oracle table
FirstName Lastname Designation
abc xyz mnz
def ghío pqr
Data should be exported like below
FirstnameíLastnameíDesignation
abcíxyzímnz

Thanks for the reply. I am new to Oracle and i am not able to find any command for exporting data in Oracle. I know we can do it manually using select statement but in that case we need to replace this delimiter with escape character and delimiter for all char fields.
In netezza we can directly do that without this. Please see below example and let me know if any such thing is present in Oracle.
SQL> CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE '/temp/test.csv' USING (REMOTESOURCE 'ODBC' DELIMITER 236 DATESTYLE 'YMD' DATEDELIM '-' TIMESTYLE '24HOUR' TIMEDELIM ':' MAXERRORS 0 ESCAPECHAR '\' NULLVALUE '' ) AS SELECT * FROM temp;

Using Escape character for Multi character delimiter for flat files in IKM
Hi
I have an IKM using Jython, it is working fine for single character delimiter. But as per requirement I have to use multicharacter delimiter ;" (semi colon and double quotes).
I am taking this into variable using
filesep = "<%=snpRef.getSrcTablesList("", "[SFILE_SEP_FIELD]", "", "")%>"
but it is giving lexical error.
Can anybody help me with the use of escape character in current scenario?
Any other suggestions are also appreciated.
Thanks
AnkitHello,
A small tweak may solve your problem:
Instead of :
CONCATENATE wa_condstr ' bukrs = ' pa_bukrs INTO wa_condstr SEPARATED BY space.
Use:
CONCATENATE wa_condstr ' bukrs = ' 'PA_BUKRS' INTO wa_condstr SEPARATED BY space.
Then use this in SELECT.
Anyways for your answer the escape character for apostrophe is an apostrophe )
Try this you will understand:
DATA:
V_STR TYPE STRING VALUE ''''.
WRITE: V_STR.

How to specify SQL escape character
The percent (%) and underscore (_) character have special meaning in SQL,
and I want to escape these so users cannot type them in and effect the
queries. The database is DB2, which does not have a default escape
character, but one can be specified in an "escape" clause, like this:
select * from customer where name like 'ERIC\%' escape '\'
This query will look for a row where the name is literally equal to
'ERIC%'. This brings me to my question:
How do I specify to Kodo that it adds the "escape" clause to the end of
the SQL?
Thanks,
EricHow do I specify to Kodo that it adds the "escape" clause to the end of
the SQL?Unfortunately there is no easy way to do this. The only way I can think of off
the top of my head is to create a subclass of the appropriate DBDictionary for
your database (see src/kodo/jdbc/sql/) and override the DBDictinoary's
toSelect(SQLBuffer, SQLBuffer...) method to add the escape clause. You can then
plug your custom dictionary into kodo:
kodo.jdbc.DBDictionary: your.custom.class.Name -
