Exit immediatly from a plsql procedure

How to implement, in just one line, a command that stop the procedure execution? Oracle 9i

You're welcome. Yes, return works in procedures too. From 9i documentation :
In procedures, a RETURN statement cannot return a value, and therefore cannot contain an expression. The statement simply returns control to the caller before the normal end of the procedure is reached.
However, in functions, a RETURN statement must contain an expression, which is evaluated when the RETURN statement is executed. The resulting value is assigned to the function identifier, which acts like a variable of the type specified in the RETURN clause.

Call from Java Plsql Procedure with VArray as Out Parameter

Hi,
I have a Java web application(Tomcat server) that call a plsql procedure with Varray as OUT parameter.
The Plsql code is perfectly compiled.
When i run the application, I get the following error msg in my Tomcat window:

Doubt: Do I need to declare ArrayDescriptors to retrieve the VArray from the Plsql procedure.
I think the below statement is enough; we need ArrayDescriptors only when we we wish to send a Plsql Object or Varray from Java code to the procedure. Plz correct me if not so.
dbCallableStatement.execute();
ARRAY SimpleOUTArray = (ARRAY) ((OracleCallableStatement) dbCallableStatement).
getObject(Integer.parseInt(arlParameterOutIndex.get(i).toString()));{color}
I am unable to realize where the mistake is?

Remote SAP function call from a plsql procedure

Hi,
How i can call a remote SAP function from a plsql procedure?
Thnaks in advance:
Bianca

I don't see any relation to Oracle Forms in this question. Is there any? If so, can you specify what you want to do, and the version numbers of Forms and databases involved?
And what does a call to a remote SAP procedure look like? Is it a DB procedure in an Oracle database? Then you can simply use a database link to the SAP database.

How to call a Asynchronous bpel process from a PLSQL procedure?

How to call a Asynchronous bpel process from a PLSQL procedure?

Hi,
You could do something smart and technical very spiffy with soap-stacks in the database and/or dbms_ws/dbms_http. But I allways find AQ with AQ-adapter the simplest. Let Pl/sql enqueue a message on an aq-queue and subscribe an aq-adapter process on it. That can call your async-bpel process. If you want to get answer back in pl/sql, let the aq-adapter process enqueue a response message on another queue or on the same queue with another consumer name. Give it a correlation-id that you provided in the payload of your request message. Your pl/sql process can then do a dequeue on that correlation-id. It will sit and wait until a message with that correlation id is enqueued on the queue.

Article &DOCID. Created/Updated Successfully

Shivanand,
There's no need to post that much code when you could create a very short test case that demonstrates only the problem you are having.
You're using &NAME. notation on something that isn't a page or application item. You can't reference PL/SQL variables that way (or any other way) outside the PL/SQL scope. For your situation, you could create a page item named P55_DOCID and assign it a value in the PL/SQL process (:P55_DOCID := DOCID;), then reference &P55_DOCID. in HTML areas like the success message.

How do we exit from a sub procedure

Hi,
I am calling a sub procedure from my plsql procedure. If an error occurs in the sub-procedure, it should exit from the appilcation.
return gets the control back to the called procedure. but is there a way to stop the execution totally?
Thanks,

Raise an exception that is not handled in the sub-procedure nor in the main procedure.

Executing sql from table with in plsql procedure

I wonder if anyone can help.
I have a table that stores sql statements. They are actually a set of rules that I want to apply to my application. My intention is to execute the statement in plsql.
EG a sql statment held in the table might be:
'select count(id) from item where item_id = ' || constants_pkg.c_test_item || ' and client_id = ' || client_id_in
I am trying to call this from a plsql procedure, Ive CUT OUT some of the procedure task_rec.rule holds the statement above. The procedure is failing invalid SQL statement, I think the client_id_in may not be evaluating as the variable, passed into the procedure and constants_pkg.c_test_item not being taken from the constants pkg.
EG.
PROCEDURE create_additional_info_list(
client_id_in IN client.id%TYPE,
IS
result VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE
task_rec.rule
INTO result;
END;
If I was to do below the code would work ok. However I require the rule to come from the table.
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE
'select count(id) from item where item_id = ' || constants_pkg.c_test_item || ' and client_id = ' || client_id_in
INTO result;
Is there anyway constants_pkg.c_test_item and client_id_in can be evaluated as variables?

Not that I've tried this but, if possible, change the SQL in the table to have bind variable; e.g.,
'select count(id) from item where item_id = :1 and client_id = :2 ';
Then in the procedure
execute immediate task
INTO result
USING constants_pkg.c_test_item ,
client_id_in ;

Calling sql script in plsql procedure

Hello,

following is the contents of this script
spool d:\mytestsql.txt
select * from tab;
spool off
Actually i want my sql script to run daily to export some tables data.
I can execute this script from a sql prompt but i want to run it from enterprise manager.
I am using oracle 10gR2 on windows2000 system.
Any idea about scheduling the sql script to run automatically??
How to execute this sql script from a plsql procedure??
Thanks

Hi all,
Thanks for all the replies. I have found the solution with external procedures.
Following is the complete step by step guide.
1. Create the OSCommand Java Class using the following statement:
connect as any user:
create or replace and compile java source named oscommand as
import java.io.*;
public class OSCommand{
public static String Run(String Command){
try{
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(Command);
return("0");
catch (Exception e){
System.out.println("Error running command: " + Command +
"\n" + e.getMessage());
return(e.getMessage());
2. Create the following Wrapper Function using the following statement:
CREATE or REPLACE FUNCTION OSCommand_Run(Command IN STRING)
RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'OSCommand.Run(java.lang.String) return int';
3. connect as sys
Execute dbms_java.grant_permission( 'FKHALID','SYS:java.io.FilePermission', '<<ALL FILES>>','execute');
execute dbms_java.grant_permission( 'FKHALID','SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'writeFileDescriptor', '*' );
execute dbms_java.grant_permission( 'FKHALID','SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'readFileDescriptor', '*' );
commit;
note: here fkhalid is the oracle user.
connect as fkhalid user:
Declare
expdp_cmd Varchar2(2000);
Begin
expdp_cmd := OSCommand_Run('cmd /c sqlplus fkhalid@mtcedwt/pwd @d:\ORA_DUMPS\mydbexp.sql');
DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line(expdp_cmd);
End;
In Unix
Set Serverout On
Declare
x Varchar2(2000);
Begin
x := OSCommand_Run('/home/test/myoscommand.sh')
DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line(x);
End;
I will check the dbms_scheduler also and will let you know the results.
Thanks

Calling PLSQL Procedure with CLOB input parameter from JDBC

Hi..
I've got a PLSQL procedure with a CLOB object as input parameter:
function saveProject (xmldoc CLOB) RETURN varchar IS
I want to call that procedure from my JDBC Application as...
String data = "..."
CallableStatement proc = conn.prepareCall
("begin ? := saveProject (?); end;");
neither
proc.setCharacterStream(2, new StringReader(data, data.length());
nor
proc.setString(2, data);
will work.
The Application throws java.sql.Exception: ... PLS-00306 wrong
number or types of arguments in call 'SAVEPROJECT'
How can I use set setClob method?
The Problem is: with Oracles CLOB implementation I can't create
an Instance, and from the CallableStatement a can't get a
Locator for a CLOB-Object.
This CLOB stuff makes me really nuts!
please somebody help me.. thanks
Alex

Hi All,
You can not make it like that.
You can not make clob as input parameter.
Do you want an easy way?
This is the easy way.
sample:
function myFunction(S varchar2(40))
return integer as
begin
insert into TableAAA values(S)
--TableAAA only contains 1 column of clob type
end;
This will work the problem with this is the parameter is in
varchar2 right? so there will be limited length for it.
You can do this to call that function:
nyFunction('My String that will be input into clob field');
There's another slight difficult way, I understand that you have
installed Oracle client/server in your system, try to look at
jdbc folder and try to find demo.zip in that folder, you can
find several ways of doing thing with jdbc.
Have a nice day,
Evan

Problem while calling webservice from a plsql stored procedure

Hi everybody,
I need to call a webservice from a plsql stored procedure.
I was following documentation published in the otn at the following link.
"http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/webservices/htdocs/samples/dbwebservice/DBWebServices_PLSQL.html"
I am encountering the following error on my sql prompt-
SQL> exec dbms_output.put_line(time_service.get_local_time('94065'));
BEGIN dbms_output.put_line(time_service.get_local_time('94065')); END;
ERROR at line 1:

Kiran, were you able to solve this?
I am facing the same error.
Oracle Server is Unix and webservice is .NET.
I am able to connect to Java web service.

Passing array from java stored procedure to plsql

I have a java store procedure that is parsing an xml document and returning element values to my plsql application(8.1.7). I'm mapping a java.lang.String return type to VARCHAR2. However I'm running into the 4k limit when trying to return a string from java that is over 4k. Truncation of varchar returning over 4k is a known issue in 8i.
So my next idea was to split that value of the element into 2000char and put in an array then pass that back to the plsql procedure. I know that oracle.sql.ARRAY can be converted into a plsql TABLE. But I believe you can only use the oracle.sql.ARRAY type when you are doing jdbc programming and are working with a connection.
SO FINALLY MY QUESTION IS...
Can anyone think of a solution that will allow me to pass over 4k of character data from my java stored procedure (not jdbc), back to my plsql app?
Thanks.

My understanding is that oracle 8 has a 4k limitation on any plsql function return data. A varchar can hold 32k within a function/package, but it cannot return more than 4k outside it's scope.
Do you have an example you could share where you use the clob as a return type?
Thanks!

How to call a PLSQL procedure from MSexcel ?

Hi all.
This is a beginner question. I do not know anything about OLE DB.
I have an Excel sheet on one side.
I have a 9i DB 9.0.1.4 on Sun Sparc on the other side.
I need to call a PLSQL procedure directly from Excel.
HOW TO ?
(This is simply because I need to pass eastern europe special caracters to my PLSQL procedure. Is there another way to do so?)
Best Regards.

In MS Excel you use VBA as the Macro Language.
You will need to install the Oracle client and the OLEdb provider.
Once this is done, Run the samples in Visual basic to test connectivity to your database (if you can).
In either case, look at the VB code that connects and calls an Oracle stored procedure. THis code is almost identical in VBA.
Make sure you reference the Microsoft ADO references.

Calling java classes from plsql procedures

I'm attempting to call java classes from plsql procedures which will create cmsdk users, folders, groups etc, however when I attempt to load a java class into the oracle schema using the command:
loadjava -user user/password@database -resolve classname.class
It generates error messages to the effect that classes (cmsdk classes) required by the class cannot be found. The class is loaded and marked with the status "invalid". Is it therefore necessary for me to load the cmsdk packages into the schema?
Cheers

Using CMSDK Java API within the database has never been supported
(see Problems loading IFS's java class into database
When we needed to invoke CMSDK code from our PL/SQL code, we used one of two approaches:
(1) use advanced queues to send requests to an external Java program (the CMSDK code, running outside the database) and receive the results back (asynchronous choice); or
(2) make an HTTP request to a Java servlet (the CMSDK code, running in some Java web container like iAS) and get the response back in some custom format (XML or something) (synchronous choice).
It seems to me that the CMSDK Java API was designed to be used only in middle-tier, not in database tier.
