Exit with bind variable from sqlplus and then echo $?

Hello world.
I don't know why they are different between :v_num and the value of "echo $?"
thanks.

The $? variable in UNIX is the exit code for the program. In most *NIX versions that I am aware of, it is limited to values between 0 and 255 (i.e. one byte), so the value is truncated. The hex value of 50497 is C541, or two bytes, so the $? variable is only getting the last byte 0X41 which is decimal 65.

Combo box with bind variable from popup

Hi.
I had two comboboxes on a form, one having a bind variable. It works great, with the first one as bind field.
But i want to have the first LOV to be a POPUP. So, the second LOV (combo box) needs to be refreshed when a user has picked a value from the popup list. When i do that, the second LOV is not refresehed...
Is there a way to do this?

Sqlplus exit with bind variable gives error

Hi,
I want to return the ID-value from an insert-statement back to the OS, but I can't catch it properly in a variable to exit that variabel. here's the script:
variable logid NUMBER;
select id_seq.nextval into :logid from dual;
-- insert into Tab_A .....
---values :logid..... -> nothing to do with the problem
exit :logid;
I get this:
SP2-0670: Internal number conversion failed
To make a minimum test, I do:
variable logid NUMBER;
select 5 into :logid from dual;
exit :logid;
but I still get that error !
what am I doing worng here ?
it is a number isn't it ?
why do i get a conversion-error than ?
how do I fill and return a variable correctly ?
thanks for any help, Lao De

Your problem is with your select statement. SELECT...INTO is PL/SQL, not SQL, and can not be used to set a variable. Alternatives:

Report Performance with Bind Variable

Getting some very odd behaviour with a report in APEX v 3.2.1.00.10
I have a complex query that takes 5 seconds to return via TOAD, but takes from 5 to 10 minutes in an APEX report.
I've narrowed it down to one particular bind. If I hard code the date in it returns in 6 seconds, but if I let the date be passed in from a parameter it takes 5+ minutes again.
Relevant part of the query (an inline view) is:
,(select rglr_lect lect
,sum(tpm) mtr_tpm
,sum(enrols) mtr_enrols
from ops_dash_meetings_report
where meet_ev_date between to_date(:P35_END_DATE,'DD/MM/YYYY') - 363 and to_date(:P35_END_DATE,'DD/MM/YYYY')
group by rglr_lect) RPV
I've tried replacing the "to_date(:P35_END_DATE,'DD/MM/YYYY') - 363" with another item which is populated with the date required (and verified by checking session state). If I replace the :P35_END_DATE with an actual date the performance is fine again.
The weird thing is that a trace file shows me exactly the same Explain Plan as the TOAD Explain where it runs in 5 seconds.
Another odd thing is that another page in my application has the same inline view and doesn't hit the performance problem.
The trace file did show some control characters (circumflex M) after each line of this report's query where these weren't anywhere else on the trace queries. I wondered if there was some sort of corruption in the source?
No problems due to pagination as the result set is only 31 records and all being displayed.
Really stumped here. Any advice or pointers would be most welcome.
Jon.

Don't worry about the Time column, the cost and cardinality are more important to see whther the CBO is making different decisions for whatever reason.
Remember that the explain plan shows the expected execution plan and a trace shows the actual execution plan. So what you want to do is compare the query with bind variables from an APEX page trace to a trace from TOAD (or sqlplus or whatever). You can do this outside APEX like this...
ALTER SESSION SET EVENTS '10046 trace name context forever, level 1';Enter and run your SQL statement...;
ALTER SESSION SET sql_trace=FALSE;This will create a a trace file in the directory returned by...
SELECT value FROM v$parameter WHERE name = 'user_dump_dest' Which you can use tkprof to format.
I am assuming that your not going over DB links or anything else slightly unusual?
Cheers

Create collection from query with bind variable

Apex 4.0.2
Per Joel Re: Collection with bind variable the apex_collection.create_collection_from_query_b supports queries containing bind variable references (:P1_X) but I am not sure how to use this feature, the documentation doesn't have an example, just the API signature for the overloaded version has changed.
If the query contains 2 bind variable references to session state (:P1_X and :P1_Y), can someone please show an example of what to pass in for the p_names and p_values parameters to the API?

ADF Groovy Expression with bind variable and ResourceBundle

Now I have ViewObject which have WHERE clause with bind variable.
This bind variable is for language. Within bind variable I can change Value Type to Expression and into Value: I put +(ResourceBundle.getBundle("model.ModelBundle")).getString("language")+.
Now if I run Oracle Business Component Browser (on AppModule) this works. In my ModelBundle.properties there is language=1 name-value pair. And with different locale I have different language number.
Now if I put that ViewObject on one JSF, this bind variable expression does not work any more. Error:
*oracle.jbo.JboException: JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: java.util.MissingResourceException, msg=Can't find bundle for base name model.ModelBundle, locale my_locale*
Any ideas?

Zmeda

The most wierd thing is that, if I make ViewObjectImpl and insert this method
public String getLanguage() {
return (ResourceBundle.getBundle("model.ModelBundle")).getString("language");
and call it in Bind Variable Expression Value: viewObject.getLanguage()
IT WORKS!
But why with groovy expression it does not work?

Af:query with bind variables and Saved Search

I have a VO and view criteria(VC).
VC has a criteria item ObsoleteDate with range specified as bindVariables "dateFrm" and "dateTo" I dragged & dropped the named criteria as af:Query with table. Table toolbar has 2 buttons in which I set & clear the bind variables. Data is fetched as per as expected based on the VC & bind variables.
The problem is,
If I save my search with bind variables set and swap between the saved searches , all works fine. But the moment I clear bind variables & swap between searches.. "dateFrm" is populated and "dateTo" is null and I get an Exception oracle.jbo.AttrValException: JBO-27035: Attribute Obsolete Date: is required.
Why is this happening?? Saved search is supposed to save the VC with all the bind values set while saving and clearing bind variables shouldn't affect the saved search, right?? Or I have understood it wrong?
I am using JDeveloper 11.1.2.3.0
Thanks

RESTful service and BLOB with bind variable

Hi,
Has anyone successfully created a RESTful service with bind variable to retrieve a BLOB field and render it in an Apex app? I can create RESTful web service and render BLOB field for a record with no bind variable (single row). As soon as I add bind variable my RESTful service fails -- I get 404 Error. Without bind variable it renders both in TEST tool of Workspace and direct URL. As soon as I add a bind variable it fails either way. I have reported this in an SR to Oracle support, but thought I would post here too.
I would also like to retrieve the photo into an Apex application. Any hints would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Pat

Hi Fateh -
Good question. You would identify the source type as a Media Resource, and use an SQL statement with the primary key and the BLOB column. When you use Media Resource, you are essentially telling your Database Cloud Service not to marshall the data, just to send it - which is exactly what you are looking for.
With this implementation, you would have to have a separate SQL call for each BLOB retrieval. However, you might be able to use a PL/SQL block as the end point for the RESTful Service and take care of multiple BLOB processing in the block.
Hope this helps.

Hello carouselmusic,
It sounds like you cannot get your iCloud email to download to the Mail app on your Mac. I would use the following troubleshooting to help resolve that from the article named:
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Mail
chttp://support.apple.com/kb/ts4002
If you can't receive mail in OS X Mail
Locate the name of your iCloud account on the left side of the main Mail window. If your iCloud account name is dimmed and has a lightning-bolt symbol next to it, your account is offline. To bring your account online, make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet, then choose Mailbox > Take All Accounts Online. If that doesn't resolve the issue, follow these steps:
Choose Preferences from the Mail menu.
Click Accounts in the Preferences window.
Select your iCloud account from the list of accounts.
Click the Advanced tab and verify these settings:
Port: 993
Use SSL: (selected)
Authentication: either "Password" or "Apple Token"
If this does not resolve the issue, then use the following to remove, and then re add the account:
To remove an email account in Mail:
Open Mail (click it on the Dock or open it from the Applications folder).
From the Mail menu, choose Preferences..., or press Command-, (the Command and comma keys).
Click the "Accounts" icon.
Select the account you wish to remove.
Click the "-" (minus) icon. You will be alerted that "The account's setup information, mailboxes, messages, notes, and to do's will be deleted permanently from your computer."
If you are sure you want to remove the account and email messages from your computer, click "Remove" to complete this process.
And
Open Mail.
Choose Add Account from the File menu. If this is the first time you've opened Mail, you will be automatically prompted to add an account.
Enter your Full Name, email address, and password. See Mac 101: Mail article for more information.

Query with bind variable, how can use it in managed bean ?

Hi
I create query with bind variable (BindControlTextValue), this query return description of value that i set in BindControlTextValue variable, how can i use this query in managed bean? I need to set this value in String parameter in managed bean.
Thanks

Put the query in a VO and execute it the usual way.
If you need to, you can write a parameterized method in VOImpl that executes the VO query with the parameter and then call that method from the UI (as a methodAction binding) either through the managed bean or via a direct button click on the page.

Slow Query over Database Link with Bind Variable

I have a query over a DB link, with all tables on the remote database.
If I use a bind variable (from Toad), the query takes 4 minutes. If I replace the bind variable with a constant or substitution variable, it takes 1 second.
The query runs fine when run directly on the remote database using bind variable.
9.2.0.7

Look up "Bind variable peeking"
What's happened is you have an execution plan that differs from the one with the constant. Why? My bet is that Oracle "peeked" at the bind variable to help it decide which execution plan to build. It then cached it. It probably cached an execution with an index when it should be doing a full table scan or a hash join instead of a nested loop. It's hard to say specifically what it is.
Try this, flush your shared pool and rerun the query with the bind and let us know if it takes 1 second or 4 minutes. If it takes 1 second, then that was probably it.
Read part 2 of Tom Kyte's blog post on what it is and it's behavior.

How to use ApplicationModuleImpl.createViewObject for VO with bind variable

I need to implement a AM method to create VO instance from a generic VODef with bind variables.
The createViewObject() will trigger the executeQuery of the VO before I can set up the bind variables for the query.
What is the proper way to create view object instance with bind variables?

I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.2.
I have a ViewObjectA declared with some bind variables which determine what business data to be retrieved at runtime via a service method of the ApplicationModule.
As the ViewObjectA is only referenced internally within ApplicationModule and I need more than one instance of the ViewObjectA for different conditions at runtime,
I use ApplicationModuleImpl.createViewObject() to create an instance of ViewObjectA instead of adding ViewObjectA to the data model of the ApplicationModule.
Currently, when the ViewObjectA is instantiated, it also trigger an executeQuery() which will not retrieve correct data until I set up the bind variables.
However, the createViewObject() method doesn't let me pass in the values of the binding variables.
Currenlty, I just call the createViewObject() and then set the binding variables values and call executeQuery() again.
Just checking if there is a better way to do so...

A little bit of help with Bind variables please

Hi,
I am having a bit of trouble with bind variables I have been looking at the Dev guide and the forum to try and achieve this and it is still not happening for me, could anybody please help or point me in the right direction:
I have created a simple PersonVO with the basic query:
Select distinct full_name from xxml_people where person_id = :1
In the PersonVOImpl.java I have added the method:
public void initQuery(String personId)
Number person = null;
try
person = new Number(personId);
catch
(Exception e){}
setWhereClauseParam(1,person);
executeQuery();
Then in the PersonAM I have added the method:
public void initPersonQuery(String personId)
getPersonVO1().initQuery(personId);
I then call this method in my processRequest section of my page controller:
PersonAMImpl am = (PersonAMImpl) pageContext.getRootApplicationModule();
String personId = "581";
am.initPersonQuery(personId);
When I try and run this I get the error:
oracle.apps.fnd.framework.OAException: oracle.jbo.SQLStmtException: JBO-27122: SQL error during statement preparation. Statement: SELECT distinct full_name from xxml_absence_calendar where person_id = :1
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist
Am I binding the variables correctly? Or am I making some stupid mistake?
I am ultimately looking to create a messageChoice where the logged in user will see a list of all organisations underneath him and the one level above. I plan to do this by passing the User’s Organisation name into a VO query using the organisation as a Bind Variable. I think once I have worked out how to bind variables this should be straight forward.
Many Thanks

Even though the parameter binding values may be same, you should never use the positional param more than once. So always go for the format
select distinct full_name from xxml_people where supervisor_id = :1
UNION
select distinct full_name from xxml_people where person_id = :2
--Shiv

Problem with Bind Variable in 11.2

Hi
I have a slow statement with bind Variables. With literals it works fine. Is there a way to replace the bind by literal in advanced ? I use Release 11.2.0.2.3
Thank you

I use Release 11.2.0.2.3This specific scenario is very much an exception to the rule - and you need to back your statement up with execution plans of the SQL with bind variables and with literals, and run stats that show the difference between these two execution plans.
