Forall with nested table

i have a procedure with a paremeter which is nested table of an object type. is it possible to use forall statement to insert into the table in the below case. can someone post the syntax in this case please. thanks.
proc1( param1,
in_items_arr
is
begin
FOR i in in_items_arr.FIRST .. in_items_arr..LAST     LOOP
          INSERT INTO tbl_items (col1,
col2,
col3,
VALUES ( parm1,
     in_items_arr(i).item_id,
               in_items_arr(i).requested_qty
END LOOP;
end;

And what is that you don't understand in:

/I would like to make exchange partition using stage table, and everything is going fine on all tables, but only on a few of them (listed source is one of them, and they're only tables with nested tables wihin), where I get an error.. but sometimes ;)
on a statement like:
ALTER TABLE IS_PODACI245_ARH EXCHANGE PARTITION P_201106 WITH TABLE IS_PODACI245_STAGE EXCLUDING INDEXES WITHOUT VALIDATION;I got an error:
ORA-00001: unique constraint (TXV.SYS_C0032911) violated
it's an unique index between parent and nested table.
what could cause that problem?

Dear,
I suppose that the unique constraint
ORA-00001: unique constraint (TXV.SYS_C0032911) violatedis the one you 've created on the nested table IS_PODACI245_STORE_TABLE
If so, why not disable that constraint and try again.
I have never exchanged such a kind of partitioned table having a nested table in it. But, I could imagine that the cloned non partitioned table IS_PODACI245_STAGE should at least be the exact image of the partitioned table IS_PODACI245_ARH (of course without the partition part) but with the nested table part and including all indexes
In addition, if you have a parent/child relationship between your partitioned tables, then there is a chronological order of exchange starting by the child and then finishing by the parent
see the following link for more information about this order of exchange (and comment 2 for an example also)

Problem when expanding Tree - Tree with nested table column

Hi, i have created the tree using the Tree with nested table column.
I have created a node called TREE_ROOT in the context.
This node has few attributes which includes children_loaded, is_leaf, is_expanded.
I have created the recursive node TREE_SUB for the above node TREE_ROOT.
In the view, i have created the table with the master column. The above attributes have been mapped accordingly. I have created the action handler for load_children.
In this action handler method, i receive the context_element correctly. In this method, i determine the children of the selected element and the resulting children are attached to this context_element.
But the problem is: when i add elements to context_elements in the method load_children, these
elements get added to the node TREE_ROOT as well.
Please help.
thanks and best regards,
Pramod

ANSI Standard Join with Nested Table

Does anyone know how to (or whether you actually can) use ansi standard table joins with nested tables.
Non-ansi standard would look something like this
SELECT e.empno
FROM departments d, TABLE(d.employees) e
WHERE d.deptno = 10;
Where d.employees is a nested table.
But if I try ansi-standard I like such:
SELECT e.empno
FROM departments d
JOIN TABLE(d.employees) e
WHERE d.deptno = 10;
I get
ORA-00905: missing keyword
because I have nothing to join it on.
Your help is very much appreciated

Both replies worked fine.
I think I will go with the NATURAL JOIN as it seems the cleanest option.
Thanks Guru 2748

Fill datagridview with Nested Table Object Type ???

Hello everybody, please you help me resolve my problem?
I follow this example: *(A Sample Application using Object-Relational features)* http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/appdev.101/b10799/adobjxmp.htm
And this tutorial: *(Using Oracle User-Defined Types with .NET and Visual Studio)* http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/hol08/dotnet/udt/udt_otn.htm
Now I have 3 Object Table: Stock, Customer and Purchase Order. With the tutorial it's OK to show the data of Stock and Customer Table [there is no nested table in], but I can't do this with table Purchase Order, the tutorial don't show how to work with Nested Table type [Missing or something ?]
When I try to display the data of table Purchase Order, I get the error:
typeName='LINEITEMLIST_NTABTYP'' is not specified or is invalid*
Follow the tutorial, I generate custom class for this UDT and get another error:
this.STOCK_REF = ((object)(Oracle.DataAccess.Types.OracleUdt.GetValue(con, pUdt, "STOCK_REF")));*
Argument Exception Unhandle: Object attribute is not mapped to a custom type member.*
Can You show me how to do this ? Show the data of the Nested Table in Visual Studio, do I have something wrong ??? Thanks and Best Regards.

I think you need to go through the tutorial more carefully. I think you are missing steps.
You are using a REF. Are you creating an object table for the objects to be stored in? Are you dereferencing the REF? This is covered by the Oracle by Example tutorial.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/hol08/dotnet/udt/udt_otn.htm#t11
When you receive the nested table, it will be inside a .NET class. You can create this class by using the Create Custom Class menu item on the nested table type in server explorer.
This class will contain a ToString method and a ToXML method.
The question is, where are you attempting to display the data from this nested table? In a grid?
Does it make sense to display a nested table inside one cell of a grid? No. You would need to construct a special UI that will show the
nested table. Maybe the user clicks on the cell on the grid, which opens a new grid that displays the data. Or maybe there is a second grid on the form that always shows the nested table for the row that the first grid currently has selected.
I realize I am not providing you the code... but it sounds like you need to design a more sohisticated UI than what the tutorial is using -- one that can handle displaying one additional table per row.

Trying to UNION two views with nested tables

I am using Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Prod, and my objective is to generate some XML. What I have been doing in the past, is to create a view, and then pass that view to the DBMS_XMLQuery routine. This gives me a CLOB that I pass along to the application. A typical object would be something like:
create or replace type XML_UGroup_Member_Type as object (
     username          varchar2(128),
     group_key          varchar2(128));
create or replace type XML_UGroup_Member_List
    as table of XML_UGroup_Member_Type;
show errors
Create or replace type XML_UGroup_Type as object (
     Group_Space     varchar2(32),
     group_key     varchar2(128),
     group_name     varchar2(255),
     members          XML_UGroup_Member_List);
/This particular application will be doing stuff with group information. Pretty simply types - a group with a name and a few other keys, and a list of members. A sample view would be like:
create or replace view xml_department_ugroup_view of xml_ugroup_type
with object identifier ( group_key ) as
Select 'Department',
      'Department:' || orgn_code,
      'Department_' || orgn_name
      cast ( multiset (
           select Username, person_id,
                    'Department:' || effective_orgn
            from directory_master dm, logins l
           where effective_orgn = dd.orgn_code
             and dm.person_id = l.owner)
            as XML_UGroup_Member_List )
         as members
   from directory_departments dd
where dept_include = 'Y';
can select from this view, and I can pass it to the DBMS_XMLQUERY package and get a nice XML document. What I want to is essentially put several of these views together, like
Select * from XML_Department_Ugroup_View
Union
Select * from XML_Portfolio_Ugroup_View;But UNION does not work with nested tables:
ERROR at line 1: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got SIMON.XML_UGROUP_MEMBER_LIST
What I was hoping to do, was to develop a set of sub views for each of the group "spaces", and then generate a view/object that includes all of the sub views, and be able to operate with that single object.
Thoughts on how to make this work, or on alternate approaches? I have considered calling XMLQuery on each of the sub views and concatenating the XML documents and returning that to the application, but I was hoping to find a more "unified" approach.

I modified my approach a bit - I changed the base views to return an XMLType object, like:
create or replace view xml_portfolio_ugroup_xml
as
Select XMLElement("group",
         xml_ugroup_type(
      'Portfolio',
         'Portfolio:' || coas_code || ':' || orgn_Code,
      cast ( multiset (
           select Username,
            from directory_master dm, logins l
           where ( effective_orgn, effective_coas ) in
           where effective_orgn = dd.orgn_code
              and dm.person_id = l.owner
            as XML_UGroup_Member_List ))) as grp
   from directory_departments dd
where dept_include = 'Y';and then I combined them with something like the following (I expect to adjust this as I learn more about the XML DB support)
create or replace view xml_ugroup_xml as
select xmlconcat(
     (select xmlagg(grp) from xml_department_ugroup_xml),
     (select xmlagg(grp) from xml_portfolio_ugroup_xml)
     ) as GROUPS
     from dualand as I define more group branches, I can add them into the XMLConCat stanzas. I am still open to suggestions as to ways of doing this better or cleaner, but this at least gets the project moving forward again.

Using FOR .. LOOP counter in handling of PL/SQL procedures with nest. table

Hi all!
I'm learning PL/SQL on Steve Bobrovsky's book (specified below sample is from it) and I've a question.
In the procedure of specified below program used an integer variable currentElement to get reference to the row of nested table of %ROWTYPE datatype.
Meanwhile, the program itself uses a common FOR .. LOOP counter i.
DECLARE
TYPE partsTable IS TABLE OF parts%ROWTYPE;
tempParts partsTable := partsTable();
CURSOR selectedParts IS
SELECT * FROM parts ORDER BY id;
currentPart selectedParts%ROWTYPE;
currentElement INTEGER;
PROCEDURE printParts(p_title IN VARCHAR2, p_collection IN partsTable) IS
BEGIN
   DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(' ');
   DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(p_title || ' elements: ' || p_collection.COUNT);
   currentElement := p_collection.FIRST;
   FOR i IN 1 .. p_collection.COUNT
   LOOP
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT('Element #' || currentElement || ' is ');
     IF tempParts(currentElement).id IS NULL THEN DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('an empty element.');
     ELSE DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('ID: ' || tempParts(currentElement).id || ' DESCRIPTION: ' || tempParts(currentElement).description);
     END IF;
    currentElement := p_collection.NEXT(currentElement);
   END LOOP;
END printParts;
BEGIN
FOR currentPart IN selectedParts
LOOP
tempParts.EXTEND(2);
tempParts(tempParts.LAST) := currentPart;
END LOOP;
printParts('Densely populated', tempParts);
FOR i IN 1 .. tempParts.COUNT
LOOP
IF tempParts(i).id is NULL THEN tempParts.DELETE(i);
END IF;
END LOOP;
FOR i IN 1 .. 50
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT('-');
END LOOP;
printParts('Sparsely populated', tempParts);
END;
/When I've substituted an INTEGER global variable with such FOR .. LOOP counter, an APEX have returned an error "ORA-01403: no data found".
DECLARE
TYPE partsTable IS TABLE OF parts%ROWTYPE;
tempParts partsTable := partsTable();
CURSOR selectedParts IS
SELECT * FROM parts ORDER BY id;
currentPart selectedParts%ROWTYPE;
PROCEDURE printParts(p_title IN VARCHAR2, p_collection IN partsTable) IS
BEGIN
   DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(' ');
   DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(p_title || ' elements: ' || p_collection.COUNT);
   FOR i IN 1 .. p_collection.COUNT
   LOOP

     IF tempParts(i).id IS NULL THEN DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('an empty element.');

What's wrong in code(or what I have not understood)? Help please!First code. You have collection of 10 elements:
1 - null
2 - populated
3 - null
4 - populated
5 - null
6 - populated
7 - null
8 - populated
9 - null
10 - populated
Then you delete null elements and have 5 element collection
2 - populated
4 - populated
6 - populated
8 - populated
10 - populated
Now you execute:
printParts('Sparsely populated', tempParts);Inside procedure you execute:
currentElement := p_collection.FIRST;
This assingns currentElement value 2. Then procedure loops 5 times (collection element count is 5). Element 2 exists. Inside loop procedure executes:
currentElement := p_collection.NEXT(currentElement);
which assigns currentElement values 4,6,8,10 - all existing elements.
Now second code. Everything is OK until you delete null elements. Again we have:
2 - populated
4 - populated
6 - populated
8 - populated
10 - populated
Again you execute:
printParts('Sparsely populated', tempParts);Now procedure loops 5 times (i values are 1,2,3,4,5):
FOR i IN 1 .. p_collection.COUNT
Very first iteration assingns i value 1. And since collection has no element with substript 1 procedure raises no data found.

Data pump import error with nested tables

So the problem is somewhat long :)
Actually the problems are two - why and how oracle are treating OO concept and why data pump doesn't work?
So scenario for the 1st one:
1) there is object type h1 and table of h1
2) there is unrelated object type row_text and table of row_text
3) there is object type h2 under h1 with attribute as table of row_text
4) there is table tab1 with column b with data type as table of h1. Of course column b is stored as nested table.
So how do you think - how many nested tables Oracle will create? The correct answer is 2. One explicitly defined and one hidden with system
generated name for the type h2 which is under type h1. So the question is WHY? Why if I create an instance of supertype Oracle tries to adapt
it for the subtype as well? Even more if I create another subtype h3 under h1 another hidden nested table appears.
This was the first part.
The second part is - if I do schema export and try to import it in another schema I got error saying that oracle failed to create storage table for
nested table column b. So the second question is - if Oracle has created such a mess with hidden nested tables how to import/export to another
schema?

Tom Kyte has said it repeatedly ... I will repeat it here for you.
The fact that Oracle allows you to build object tables is not an indication that you should.
Store your data relationally and build object_views on top of them.
http://www.morganslibrary.org/reference/object_views.html
If you model properly, and store properly, you don' have any issues.

Issues with Nested Tables and Adobe Designer

Hi,
I have some strange issues when I am trying to create a nested dynamic table with SAP DATA in Adobe Designer.
My Outer Table has article items and in this table I got a nested charges. For instance the table contains this data:
DATA
|->Article1
|--->charge111
|--->charge211
|
|->Article2
|--->charge122
|--->charge222
Now I am trying to display the data in a Adobe Designer table. But if I create a table with a row article and a repeating row charge all charges will be displayed under the first Article.
This is the result:
DATA
|->Article1
|--->charge111
|--->charge211
|--->charge122
|--->charge222
|
|->Article2
How can I solve this issue? I tried to select data binding on charges like article.DATA.charges.DATA[*] but this don't work.
Anyone an idea?

Alex,
Is it print based form or interactvie form.
ABAP
If it is printbased form and if you are designing from SFP, you can use the following solution.
You have to create a nested table in the context as below.
say Table1-> Article ( fields: ARTICLENAME,....other fields) info Table2->cost info(fields:ARTICLENAME,Charge...,other fields).
The 2 tables should contains data as beow.
Table1 data.
1row->Article1 -.....other values.
2row->Article2 -.....other values.
3row->Article3 -.....other values.
Table2 data.
1row->Article1 -Charge11 .....other values.
2row->Article1 -Charge12 .....other values.
3row->Article1 -Charge13 .....other values.
4row->Article2 -Charge21 .....other values.
5row->Article2 -Charge22 .....other values.
6row->Article2 -Charge23 .....other values.
7row->Article3 -Charge31 .....other values.
8row->Article3 -Charge32 .....other values.
9row->Article3 -Charge33 .....other values.
In the context drag table2 into the table1 and define where clause on ARTICLENAME.
In the layout drag nested table in the body page and make alignments.
If your requirement is interactive, may be you can use the similar logic.

Help needed with nested tables

I have two identical relations R and S defined as:
CREATE TYPE table_typ AS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(8);
CREATE TABLE R(
a INTEGER,
b table_type)
NESTED TABLE b STORE as b_1;
CREATE TABLE S(
a INTEGER,
b table_type)
NESTED TABLE b STORE as b_2;
Both have two tuples each:
INSERT INTO r VALUES (1, table_type('a','b'));
INSERT INTO r VALUES (2, table_type('d'));
INSERT INTO s VALUES (1, table_type('b','c'));
INSERT INTO s VALUES (3, table_type('e'));
Would it be possible to write a query that "unions" R and S so that nested tables in tuples (in R and S) that agree on the A attribute are merged together, while tuples that do not agree on A still appear in the result? That is, the result I am looking for is:
A B
1 TABLE_TYPE('a','b','c')
2 TABLE_TYPE('d')
3 TABLE_TYPE('e')
I've tried a simple union, but it does not work. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Laura

I don't have 10g, but the following is a 9i solution. I know there has to be a better way. About all I can say for the code below is that it works. I am only posting it because it is better than nothing, until somebody with 10g posts something better. I have included the stragg function by Tom Kyte.

Outer join with nested tables

I am dealing with a nested table (I simplified the case
for purpose of posting):
CREATE TABLE boris_main_tab (
IND_SSN          VARCHAR2(9) PRIMARY KEY,
children          B_CHILDREN_TBL,
) nested table children stored as....
where B_CHILDREN_TBL is defined like this:
create or replace type b_children_type as object (
     child_ssn               VARCHAR2(9),
     child_first_name          VARCHAR2(20),
     child_last_name          VARCHAR2(20),
     child_dob               date
create or replace type b_children_tbl as table of b_children_type;
if I want to display person's ssn along with his/her children information I do like this:
SELECT m.ind_ssn, c.child_ssn, c.child_first_name
FROM boris_main_tab m,
TABLE(m.children) c
This is a statement I can find everywhere. But there is a caveat here, they
forgot to mention. This is really an inner join, so I don't get childless
people. Can you, guys, help me with the outer join syntax?
I mean, of course, I found the obvious solution to make this inner join
into a view and then join it with the boris_main_tab again this time using the
regular outer join syntax. But it seems to me there has to be something simplier than that.
But I can't find it. It really hurting me, since I have a few nested table
columsn and people want to see the records where I need to mention a few of
them, sort of like
from boris_main_tab m, TABLE(m.children) c, TABLE(m.spouses) s
where c.child_last_name <> m.spouse.last_name
in cases like this the fact that EACH of these joins is inner join really
hurts the logic.
Respectfully,
Boris

Hi Borris,
Found the following in the Oracle Documentation under: Oracle8i Application Developer's Guide - Object-Relational Features Release 2 (8.1.6)
2 Managing Oracle Objects / Using Collections / Collection Unnesting
URL: http://www.znow.com/sales/oracle/appdev.816/a76976/adobjmng.htm#1002885
Oracle8i also supports the following syntax to produce outer-join results:
SELECT d.*, e.* FROM depts d, TABLE(d.emps)(+) e;
The (+) indicates that the dependent join between DEPTS and D.EMPS should be NULL-augmented. That is, there > will be rows of DEPTS in the output for which D.EMPS is NULL or empty, with NULL values for columns
corresponding to D.EMPS.

Hi
i was using AWM since 9i just because it creates OLAP metadata with a new API called CWM2, and Oracle Enterprise Manager was using a propietary API .
With AWM 10.1.0.4 building your OLAP metadata is very simple, you can define your Dimensions, cubes, measures and even you can load your data from your source system.
You can refer to the Oracle® OLAP Application Developer's Guide where you can find more information on this tool.
And relative to your error i will recommend that you build on a dimension-by-dimension basis and try to validate your OLAP Metadata.
Regards

Forall with nested table
