Flashback_Transaction_Query Problem

Hi,
When I execute sql below it runs for hours and no result.
Any idea? Thank you
SELECT xid ,operation,undo_sql
FROM flashback_transaction_query
WHERE table_owner = 'xxx'
AND table_name = 'xxx'
and start_timestamp>to_timestamp('22-09-10 14:15:30','dd-mm-yy hh24:mi:ss')

Are you sure that you have started a transaction backout operation already? What happens when in the above query , you don't use the where clause ? Does it give some results at that time or not?

Problem with Flashback transaction query in 10g

Hello,
I'm having a problem when working with FLASHBACK_TRANSACTION_QUERY.
When I make a simple update of table PARTIES with some trigger (one transaction with XID=000300310027ACAA), expected result can be found in FLASBACK_TRANSACTION_QUERY:
select xid, start_scn, commit_scn, logon_user, undo_change#, operation, table_name, table_owner, undo_sql from flashback_transaction_query f
where xid = hextoraw('000300310027ACAA');
XID               START_SCN     COMMIT_SCN     LOGON_USER     UNDO_CHANGE#     OPERATION     TABLE_NAME          TABLE_OWNER     UNDO_SQL
000300310027ACAA     170337630398     170337630411     SYSTEM     1               UPDATE     PARTY_HIST_LOGS     ODS_OWNER          update ...
000300310027ACAA     170337630398     170337630411     SYSTEM     2               UPDATE     PARTIES          ODS_OWNER          update ...
000300310027ACAA     170337630398     170337630411     SYSTEM     3               BEGIN          null               null               null
But after a while (cca 1 minute) all rows representing DML operations changes to one row with operation=UNKNOWN. And in the same time TABLE_OWNER, UNDO_SQL, ROW_ID is lost.
select xid, start_scn, commit_scn, logon_user, undo_change#, operation, table_name, table_owner, undo_sql from flashback_transaction_query f
where xid = hextoraw('000300310027ACAA');
XID     START_SCN     COMMIT_SCN     LOGON_USER     UNDO_CHANGE#     OPERATION     TABLE_NAME     TABLE_OWNER     UNDO_SQL
000300310027ACAA     170337630398     0     SYS     1     UNKNOWN     PARTIES     null          null               null
000300310027ACAA     170337630398     0     SYS     2     BEGIN          null          null          null               null
Do you have any explanations, why this happens?
Thanks a lot Filip

Columns from table FLASHBACK_TRANSACTION_QUERY

Hi, have any problem with columns START_TIMESTAMP and COMMIT_TIMESTAMP from table FLASHBACK_TRANSACTION_QUERY ?
It's declarated in type DATE.
This is correct ?

Hi
If I understand correctly then you can use
SQL> select to_char(START_TIMESTAMP, 'DD/MM/YY HH:MI:SS') FROM FLASHBACK_TRANSACTION_QUERY
Hope it helps.

Flashback_transaction_query.undo_sql 10g

I have hard time getting over the 4000 limit on UNDO_SQL column in FLASHBACK_TRANSACTION_QUERY view on 10.2.0.3/x86 linux. The problem is in sqls longer than 4000 characters, I assume they should be split as in v$sqltext but they are not. Supplemental logging doesn't do much difference except that undo sqls are truncated and not absent.
Is there a possibility to generate UNDO_SQL for statement longer than 4000 characters at all? 11g has transaction backout based on that view so it's hard to believe that this is for small sqls only. Below example is for database without supplemental logging.
SQL> drop table t purge;
Table dropped.
SQL> create table t (x varchar2(4000), y varchar2(4000));
Table created.
SQL> insert into t values (lpad('#', 4000, '#'), lpad('#',4000, '#'));
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> select max(ora_rowscn) from t;
MAX(ORA_ROWSCN)
7217362153
SQL> select undo_sql from flashback_transaction_query where commit_scn=7217362153;
UNDO_SQL
delete from "SYSTEM"."T" where ROWID = 'AAHUIxAABAAAbzLAAA';
delete from "SYSTEM"."T" where ROWID = 'AAHUIxAABAAAbzKAAA';
SQL> delete from t;
1 row deleted.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> select max(commit_scn) from flashback_transaction_query where table_name='T';
MAX(COMMIT_SCN)
7217364347
SQL> select undo_sql from flashback_transaction_query where commit_scn=7217364347;
UNDO_SQL
SQL> select length(undo_sql) from flashback_transaction_query where commit_scn=7217364347;
LENGTH(UNDO_SQL)
SQL> select dump(undo_sql) from flashback_transaction_query
where commit_scn=7217364347;
DUMP(UNDO_SQL)
NULL
NULL
NULL

Does this mean log miner (did I mention the same applies to v$logmnr_contents?), transaction backout, flashback transaction are useless for statements involving values longer than 4000 characters? Hard to believe...

Error year format in statements in FLASHBACK_TRANSACTION_QUERY.UNDO_SQL

I execute 20 delete on tab1 table and then COMMIT.
flashback is enabled: in table FLASHBACK_TRANSACTION_QUERY field UNDO_SQL I can found all statements for undo: in this case I found exactly 20 insert of 20 rows that I deleted.
the problem is in date format: all insert have this kind of timestamp field:
INSERT INTO SCHEMA.TAB1 (<fields>) VALUES (TO_TIMESTAMP ('01-FEB-90 00:00:00'),<other values>)
this insert IS NOT GOOD: I'd like 4 digits year, so I try alter sessionì:
ALTER SESSION SET nls_timestamp_format = 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS';
then I re-execute 20 delete e re-read flashback table.....now all insert have this kind of timestamp field:
INSERT INTO SCHEMA.TAB1 (<fields>) VALUES (TO_TIMESTAMP ('01-FEB-0090 00:00:00'),<other values>)
this insert IS ALSO NOT GOOD....correct year is 1990 and NOT 0090!!!! so I try another format:
ALTER SESSION SET nls_timestamp_format = 'DD-MON-RRRR HH24:MI:SS';
and then I also try:
ALTER SESSION SET nls_timestamp_format = 'DD-MON-RR HH24:MI:SS';
nothing.....I alwais have year 0090 in insert statement (instead 1990)
P.S. In practice I want something like this: http://www.oracle-developer.net/display.php?id=320
at half page, where it says XID 040028008A010000 there is the format that I need

I just performed a test:
SQL> select undo_sql from FLASHBACK_TRANSACTION_QUERY where table_owner = 'A'
2 /
UNDO_SQL
insert into "A"."T12"("C1") values (TO_TIMESTAMP('21-JUN-90 06.57.35.000000 PM'));
insert into "A"."T12"("C1") values (TO_TIMESTAMP('16-JUN-09 06.54.35.656000 PM'));
13 rows selected.
SQL> alter session set nls_timestamp_format = 'DD-MON-RRRR HH.MI.SSXFF AM'
2 /
Session altered.
SQL> select undo_sql from FLASHBACK_TRANSACTION_QUERY where table_owner = 'A'
2 /
UNDO_SQL
insert into "A"."T12"("C1") values (TO_TIMESTAMP('21-JUN-1990 06.57.35.000000 PM'));
insert into "A"."T12"("C1") values (TO_TIMESTAMP('16-JUN-2009 06.54.35.656000 PM'));Are you completly sure that your original data was from 1990 ?
With kind regards

A problem with threads

I am trying to implement some kind of a server listening for requests. The listener part of the app, is a daemon thread that listens for connections and instantiates a handling daemon thread once it gets some. However, my problem is that i must be able to kill the listening thread at the user's will (say via a sto button). I have done this via the Sun's proposed way, by testing a boolean flag in the loop, which is set to false when i wish to kill the thread. The problem with this thing is the following...
Once the thread starts excecuting, it will test the flag, find it true and enter the loop. At some point it will LOCK on the server socket waiting for connection. Unless some client actually connects, it will keep on listening indefinatelly whithought ever bothering to check for the flag again (no matter how many times you set the damn thing to false).
My question is this: Is there any real, non-theoretical, applied way to stop thread in java safely?
Thank you in advance,
Lefty

This was one solution from the socket programming forum, have you tried this??
public Thread MyThread extends Thread{
     boolean active = true;
     public void run(){
          ss.setSoTimeout(90);
          while (active){
               try{
                    serverSocket = ss.accept();
               catch (SocketTimeoutException ste){
               // do nothing
     // interrupt thread
     public void deactivate(){
          active = false;
          // you gotta sleep for a time longer than the
          // accept() timeout to make sure that timeout is finished.
          try{
               sleep(91);
          }catch (InterruptedException ie){
          interrupt();
}

You can also try to provide a greater Priority to your player thread so that it gains the CPU time when ever it needs it and don't harm the playback.
However a loop in a Thread and that to an infinite loop is one kind of very bad programming, 'cuz the loop eats up most of your CPU time which in turn adds up more delays of the execution of other tasks (just as in your case it is the playback). By witting codes bit efficiently and planning out the architectural execution flow of the app before start writing the code helps solve these kind of issues.
You can go through [this simple tutorial|http://oreilly.com/catalog/expjava/excerpt/index.html] about Basics of Java and Threads to know more about threads.

N.B. And yes there are more articles and tutorials available but much of them targets the Java SE / EE, but if you want to read them here is [another great one straight from SUN|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/concurrency/index.html] .

J2ME problem with threads

Hi all,
I would like to ask you for a help. I need to write a small program at my university. I started to write a midlet which function would be to countdown time for sports activities. I woul like to start a new thread - the one that counts down - and at the same time make the main thread sleep. After the "countdown" thread finishes, the main thread wakes up and waits for user input. The problem is that when the "countdown" thread finishes his work, I've got Uncaught exception java/lang/NullPointerException. error and the midlet halts.

}Can anybody help me with this?

Groovemaker,
Your Licznik class has a member m of type monitor, which has not been instantiated (in other words is null) hence, when calling m.put() you get NullPointerException. Please also mind, that using Thread.sleep(1000) is not an accurate way of measuring time.
If I may, please use recommended for Java class naming conventions - some of your names use lower case, while other don't which is confusing to the reader.

Problem with threads within applet

Hello,
I got an applet, inside this applet I have a singleton, inside this singleton I have a thread.
this thread is running in endless loop.
he is doing something and go to sleep on and on.
the problem is,
when I refresh my IE6 browser I see more than 1 thread.
for debug matter, I did the following things:
inside the thread, sysout every time he goes to sleep.
sysout in the singleton constructor.
sysout in the singleton destructor.
the output goes like this:
when refresh the page, the singleton constructor loading but not every refresh, sometimes I see the constructor output and sometimes I dont.
The thread inside the singleton is giving me the same output, sometime I see more than one thread at a time and sometimes I dont.
The destructor never works (no output there).
I don't understand what is going on.
someone can please shed some light?
thanks.
btw. I am working with JRE 1.1
this is very old and big applet and I can't convert it to something new.

Ooops. sorry!
I did.
     public void start() {
     public void stop() {
     public void destroy() {
          try {
               resetAll();
               Configuration.closeConnection();
               QuoteItem.closeConnection();
          } finally {
               try {
                    super.finalize();
               } catch (Throwable e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
     }

Problem with Threads and a static variable

I have a problem with the code below. I am yet to make sure that I understand the problem. Correct me if I am wrong please.
Code functionality:
A timer calls SetState every second. It sets the state and sets boolean variable "changed" to true. Then notifies a main process thread to check if the state changed to send a message.
The problem as far I understand is:
Assume the timer Thread calls SetState twice before the main process Thread runs. As a result, "changed" is set to true twice. However, since the main process is blocked twice during the two calls to SetState, when it runs it would have the two SetState timer threads blocked on its synchronized body. It will pass the first one, send the message and set "changed" to false since it was true. Now, it will pass the second thread, but here is the problem, "changed" is already set to false. As a result, it won't send the message even though it is supposed to.
Would you please let me know if my understanding is correct? If so, what would you propose to resolve the problem? Should I call wait some other or should I notify in a different way?
Thanks,
B.D.
Code:
private static volatile boolean bChanged = false;
private static Thread objMainProcess;
   protected static void Init(){
        objMainProcess = new Thread() {
            public void run() {
                while( objMainProcess == Thread.currentThread() ) {
                   GetState();
        objMainProcess.setDaemon( true );
        objMainProcess.start();
    public static void initStatusTimer(){
        if(objTimer == null)
             objTimer = new javax.swing.Timer( 1000, new java.awt.event.ActionListener(){
                public void actionPerformed( java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt){
                          SetState();
    private static void SetState(){
        if( objMainProcess == null ) return;
        synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
            bChanged = true;
            try{
                objMainProcess.notify();
            }catch( IllegalMonitorStateException e ) {}
    private static boolean GetState() {
        if( objMainProcess == null ) return false;
        synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
            if( bChanged) {
                SendMessage();
                bChanged = false;
                return true;
            try {
                objMainProcess.wait();
            }catch( InterruptedException e ) {}
            return false;
    }

Thanks DrClap for your reply. Everything you said is right. It is not easy to make them alternate since SetState() could be called from different places where the state could be anything else but a status message. Like a GREETING message for example. It is a handshaking message but not a status message.
Again as you said, There is a reason I can't call sendMessage() inside setState().
The only way I was able to do it is by having a counter of the number of notifies that have been called. Every time notify() is called a counter is incremented. Now instead of just checking if "changed" flag is true, I also check if notify counter is greater than zero. If both true, I send the message. If "changed" flag is false, I check again if the notify counter is greater than zero, I send the message. This way it works, but it is kind of a patch than a good design fix. I am yet to find a good solution.
Thanks,
B.D.

Problem with threads running javaw

Hi,
Having a problem with multi thread programming using client server sockets. The program works find when starting the the application in a console using java muti.java , but when using javaw multi.java the program doesnt die and have to kill it in the task manager. The program doesnt display any of my gui error messages either when the server disconnect the client. all works find in a console. any advice on this as I havent been able to understand why this is happening? any comment would be appreciated.
troy.

troy,
Try and post a minimum code sample of your app which
does not work.
When using javaw, make sure you redirect the standard
error and standard output streams to file.
Graeme.Hi Graeme,
I dont understand what you mean by redirection to file? some of my code below.

Problem with Threads and "plase wait..."-Window

Hi everyone,
I have a problem that I'm not able to solve in any way... I have a time-consuming task (a file decryption) which I execute in a separate thread; I've used the SwingWorker class, like suggested by sun-tutorial, and it works right. The problem is that I have to wait that the decryption have finished before continuing with program-execution. Therefore I would like to display a "please wait"-window while the task runs. I've tryed all the possible ways I know but the problem is always the same: the waitWindow is displayed empty, the bounds are painted but the contents no; it's only painted when the decrypt-task has finished. Please help me, I have no more resources....
decrypt-file code:
public class DecryptFile {
private String cryptedFileNameAndPath;
private ByteArrayInputStream resultStream = null;
// need for progress
private int lengthOfTask;
private int current = -1;
private String statMessage;
public DecryptFile(String encZipFileNameAndPath) {
    cryptedFileNameAndPath = encZipFileNameAndPath;
    //Compute length of task...
    // 0 for indeterminate
    lengthOfTask = 0;
public ByteArrayInputStream getDecryptedInputStream() {
    return this.resultStream;
   * Called from ProgressBarDemo to start the task.
public void go() {
    current = -1;
    final SwingWorker worker = new SwingWorker() {
      public Object construct() {
        return new ActualTask();
    worker.start();
   * Called from ProgressBarDemo to find out how much work needs
   * to be done.
public int getLengthOfTask() {
    return lengthOfTask;
   * Called from ProgressBarDemo to find out how much has been done.
public int getCurrent() {
    return current;
public void stop() {
    current = lengthOfTask;
   * Called from ProgressBarDemo to find out if the task has completed.
public boolean done() {
    if (current >= lengthOfTask)
      return true;
    else
      return false;
public String getMessage() {
    return statMessage;
   * The actual long running task. This runs in a SwingWorker thread.
class ActualTask {
    ActualTask () {
      current = -1;
      statMessage = "";
      resultStream = AIUtil.getInputStreamFromEncZip(cryptedFileNameAndPath); //here the decryption happens
      current = 0;
      statMessage = "";
}The code that calls decryption and displays waitWindow
      final WaitSplash wS = new WaitSplash("Please wait...");
      final DecryptFile cryptedTemplate = new DecryptFile (this.templateFile);
      cryptedTemplate.go();
      while (! cryptedTemplate.done()) {
        try {
          wait();
        } catch (Exception e) { }
      this.templateInputStream = cryptedTemplate.getDecryptedInputStream();
      wS.close();Thanks, thanks, thanks in advance!

Maybe you can try setting the priority of the long-running thread to be lower? so that the UI will be more responsive...

Problem with threads in j2me

im using jdk 1.6 with java wtk 2.1
ya i know..
2.1 is a jdk1.4 source
but im using souce as 1.4 during compiliation so thats not the prob
this is my code
package org.learn;
import javax.microedition.midlet.MIDlet;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.Alert;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.Display;
public class thtest extends MIDlet
Thread t;
public void startApp()
Alert a=new Alert("hello");
a.setString("hello");
Alert b=new Alert("world");
b.setString("world");
Display d = Display.getDisplay(this );
d.setCurrent(a);
t=Thread.currentThread();
try{
t.sleep(10000);
catch (Exception e){}
d.setCurrent(b);
public void pauseApp()
public void destroyApp(boolean unconditional)
its just supposed to pause between the alerts using threads
however when i run it using the wtk, the emulator run properly but when i launch the app, it stops executing giving me this:

please can someone help me out with this, is it an error on my part or do i have to set some option.

Hi gandalf123,
First, Thread.sleep is a static method, so you don't need to create a Thread object to use it.
I think the problem is due to the fact you don't preverify your midlet.
More over, you don't need to double post your question.

Problem with threads and camera.

Hi everybody!
I've a problem with taking snapshot.
I would like to display a loading screen after it take snapshot ( sometimes i
have to wait few seconds after i took snapshot. Propably photo is being taken in time where i have to wait).
I was trying to use threads but i didn't succeed.
I made this code:
display.setCurrent(perform);
        new Thread(new Runnable(){
            public void run() {
                while((!performing.isShown()) && (backgroundCamera.isShown())){
                    Thread.yield();
                notifyAll();
        }).start();
        new Thread(new Runnable(){
            public void run() {
                try {
                    this.wait();
                } catch(Exception e) {
                    exceptionHandler(e);
                photo = camera.snapshot();
                display.setCurrent(displayPhoto);
        }).start();This code is sometimes showing performing screen but sometimes no.
I don't know why. In my opinion performing.isShown() method isn't working correctly.
Does anyone have some idea how to use threads here?

Hi,
I've finally managed to work this fine.
The code:
       Object o = new Object();
       display.setCurrent(perform);
        new Thread(new Runnable(){
            public void run() {
                while(!performing.isShown()){
                    Thread.yield();
               synchronized(o) {
                  o.notify();
        }).start();
        new Thread(new Runnable(){
            public void run() {
                try {
                    synchronized(o) {
                       o.wait(1);
                } catch(Exception e) {
                    exceptionHandler(e);
                photo = camera.snapshot();
                display.setCurrent(displayPhoto);
        }).start();

Problem with threads and graphics

I have a thread that chooses paths for a Travelling salesman problem, it then calls a TSPdraw class and passes it the path, which the class then draws. the problem is when i have two threads it creates two windows but only draws a path in one of them. any ideas where i`m going wrong

Are you using swing components? Swing isn't threadsafe. If you have multiple threads that want to update your UI you need to use the SwingUtilities.invokeLater(...)or invokeAndWait(...). There is a page in the swing tutorial about this at: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/misc/threads.html
