Extract value from XML column .

Question

Hi,
I'm on 11.2.0.3 and got query
select other_xml from v$sql_plan where sql_id=’2y32qkr40b82a’ and other_xml is not null
<other_xml><info type="db_version">11.2.0.3</info>
<info type="parse_schema"><![CDATA["LIU"]]></info><info type="dynamic_sampling">2</info>
<info type="plan_hash">3882242470</info><info type="plan_hash_2">281948136</info>
<peeked_binds><bind nam=":N1" pos="1" dty="2" pre="0" scl="0" mxl="22">c30d51</bind>
<bind nam=":N2" pos="2" dty="2" pre="0" scl="0" mxl="22">c30d51</bind>
<bind nam=":N3" pos="3" dty="2" pre="0" scl="0" mxl="22">c30d51</bind></peeked_binds>
<outline_data><hint><![CDATA[IGNORE_OPTIM_EMBEDDED_HINTS]]></hint>
<hint><![CDATA[OPTIMIZER_FEATURES_ENABLE('11.2.0.3')]]></hint>
<hint><![CDATA[DB_VERSION('11.2.0.3')]]></hint>
<hint><![CDATA[FIRST_ROWS(100)]]></hint>
<hint><![CDATA[OUTLINE_LEAF(@"SEL$1")]]></hint>
<hint><![CDATA[FULL(@"SEL$1" "LIU"@"SEL$1")]]></hint>
</outline_data></other_xml>I want output related to <info type="dynamic_sampling">2</info> :
column name dynamic_sampling
row value 2
on the second thought using dynamic_sampling value as a predicate would be great so:
select * from v$sql_plan
where
dynamic_sampling = 2
how to transform other_xml column to have such results ?

Answer 1

And here is an xmltable version:
select p.sql_id, t.val
from   v$sql_plan p
,      xmltable('for $i in /other_xml/info
                 where $i/@type eq "dynamic_sampling"
                 return $i'
                passing xmltype(p.other_xml)
                columns attr varchar2(50) path '@type',
                        val  varchar2(50) path '/') t
where  p.other_xml is not null;This works for me in 11.2.0.3 but crashes in 11.1.0.7 with ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [qctVCO:csform], [0], [0], [0], [0], [112], [2], [224], [], [], [], []
