Generate dbsequnce for a table using a bean

Is it possible to generate the next dbsequence for a table using bean?
Thanks

If you are only interested in the number in the bean, you should implement a service method in out application module, expose it to the client interface and call this via the binding layer.
public oracle.jbo.domain.Number getSequenceNumber()   {
        try    {
            String seq = "YOUR_DB_SEQUENCE_SEQ";
            oracle.jbo.server.SequenceImpl empSeq =
                new oracle.jbo.server.SequenceImpl(seq, getDBTransaction());
            oracle.jbo.domain.Number zSerienNrSeq = empSeq.getSequenceNumber();
            return zSerienNrSeq ;
        catch (Exception e)        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        return null;
}Timo

  • Generate script for filling table

    Hi all,
    I've got table at test Oracle server table1 with columns ID, BTYPE, MYDESCRIPTION. Rows of this table have been inserted manually. Now my need is to write script for creating table (structure + data). I think about writing something like
    CREATE TABLE table 1
    AS
    SELECT 1 AS ID, 'TYPE1' AS BTYPE, 'SOME TEXT' AS MYDESCRIPTION
    UNION ALL
    SELECT 2 AS ID, 'TYPE2' AS BTYPE, 'SOME TEXT 2' AS MYDESCRIPTION
    But rows are too many to type... Could you please suggest some way of generating script for creating table at working server using existing table at test server? The problem is I don't have an access to working server.
    Thanks ahead.

    Use the view user_tab_cols
    say
    declare
    cursor c1 is
    select 'e_'||column_name ||' '||data_type||' ('||data_length||') ' col
      from user_tab_cols
      where table_name = 'DEPARTMENTS'
    union
    select 'd_'||column_name ||' '||data_type||' ('||data_length||') ' col
      from user_tab_cols
      where table_name = 'EMPLOYEES';
    v1 varchar2(500);
    begin
    v1 := 'create table new_tabl (';
    for i in c1 loop
    v1 := v1||i.col||',';
    end loop;
    v1 := substr(v1,1,length(v1)-1);
    dbms_output.put_line(v1||')');
    end;
    /i am using employees and departments table of hr schema.
    now as both the tables have some column column so i have used e for employees and d for departments
    just do one thing remove the length for date data type in o/p i dont know why it is not working.
    this will give you structure for data use any sql stmt

  • Unable to generate statistics for the table

    I have got a staging table of more than 600 columns which has got range portioning. Size of the table is 4GB. The average size of the row is around 3 MB. I have created a Functional index on one of the column ABC VARCHAR2(50) and it has only number values. Now when I try generating statistics for this table through ANALYZE or DBMS_STAT, it gives Invalid Number error but when I drop this index and try analyzing, it works.
    Executed TO_NUMBER(ABC) query on the table and it works fine.
    I have got Functional Indexes on other tables also but I don't get such problem with those tables. I tried dropping the index and re-creating it but it didn't work out.
    I was suspecting DATA BLOCK CORRUPTION so checked ALERT LOG and TRACE FILES but found nothing.
    So what is this magic called?

    I am using TO_NUMBER on the column.
    I have checked the MetaLink for the same problem but could not find anything on that. I still suspect datafile error which I am unable to get in ALERT LOG or TRACE FILES. So I am going to try it this way:
    1) Create new Tablespace with New Datafile
    2) Transfer the table from existing Tablespace to new Tablespace
    3) Create the functional index in the same new Tablespace
    4) Try generating the statistics.
    5) If it works then create seprate Tablespace for data and Index.
    Hope it works !!
    Thanks for the reply guys.

  • Is table maintenance generator only for custom table?

    hi ,
    i have doubt is table maintenance generator only for custom table?

    hi swamya,
    Table Maintanance Generator is used to create/change/delete table entries in a particular table.
    In the production system, end-users will not be having access to transaction codes like SE11 and SE16. Developers will not be having access to many transaction codes including the above two.To view the contents of the database table, we will use SE16n in Production system. All these authorizations will be maintained by BASIS team, by creating access profiles.So in order to edit or create the contents of a database table, we should go for table maintenance generator. In real time, authorizations will be maintained in production system.
    The second reason is, we can edit or create multiple entries at a time, using tablemaintenance generator.
    Apart from that we have options like 'Enter conditions' in table maintenance screen SM30.
    hope this helps in clearing ur doubt.

    So, please guide me the reference books, articles. I need the basic understanding of JSF, net beans IDE.[JSF: The Complete Reference|http://www.amazon.com/JavaServer-Faces-Complete-Reference/dp/0072262400] is a good book.

  • Is there a way to create ADF Table using a bean

    Hi,
    I am using JDev 11g 11.1.1.2.0.
    I am reading an excel sheet and want to generate an ADF table using the same. I already have hold on excel data.
    But when I go through the RichTable API, I find that there is no method to add Columns and Rows. Most or all the methods work on the table UI Looks attribute.
    Any suggestion? Am I missing a method OR 2 here?
    Pls note: The excel (CSV file) using which I am populating my table, will vary for different user. i.e.
    say user 1 will upload a CSV file with 7cols and 100 rows while
    user 2 will upload the CSV file that has 2 cols and 100 rows.
    Hope this makes it clear of my requirements and why I want to populate the table from a bean.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Binding for table produces list for other tables using foreign key and crea

    Using
    software Jdev 11G, WLS 11G, Oracle DB 11G, Windows Vista platform
    technology EJB 3.0, jspx, backing beans, session bean
    I cannot create a namedquery on my secondary table. The method for the column uses the entity object rather than the name and value of the column.
    For instance,
    (Coketruck) table has inventory records(Products) table
    Coketruck has one to many to the Products table
    Products has a many to one to the Coketruck
    I need to return the products from the product table based on the CokeTruck but I cannot create a namedQuery because the method in the Product table is an entity object type instead of a long that I can use to look up all the products based off the column truck_id.
    This is what I was expecting…
    Private Long truckId;
    public Long getTruckId() {
    return truckId;
    public void setTruckId (Long truckId) {
    this. truckId = truckId;
    Instead this is what I have…
    @ManyToOne
    @JoinColumn(name = "TRUCK_ID")
    private Coketruck coketruck;
    this. coketruck = coketruck
    public Coketruck getCoketruck() {
    return coketruck;
    public void set Coketruck (Coketruck coketruck) {
    this. coketruck = coketruck;
    How do I do a query on the Product table to return all the products that are in the coketruck?
    If I do the following it expects for me to pass the Entity Object which I cannot use as search criteria for my find method.
    @NamedQuery(name = "Products.findById", query = "select o from Products o where o.truckId = :truckId")
    On a different note but the same song…
    I noticed that when I look at my Session Bean Data Contols that the coketruck already has a list of the products. I have created a jsp page with a backing bean and have been able to use the namedquery on the coketruck entity to retrieve the productList. Unfortunately I need to sort the products by type and was also not able to find where to perform the work to be able to iterate through the productList to get my desired display. Therefore I started looking at doing another namedquery that would only retrieve the product_type ordering by the truckId.
    Seems I have come full circle… I don’t care what method I have to use to get the info back.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Hi!
    I work on an application wich uses a shopping cart stored in a database. The shopping cart uses two tables:
    CART: Holds information common for one shopping cart: the user it is connected to etc.
    - Primary key: CART_ID
    CART_ROW: One row in the cart, e.g. one new product to buy.
    - Primary key: ROW_ID
    - Foreign key: CART_ROW.CART_ID references CART.CART_ID
    From the code the rows in the cart are collected per cart, as is modelled by the foreign key. There exists one more relationship, which we use in the code, but which is not modelled by a foreign key in the database. One row can be dependent on another row, which makes the other row a parent.
    CART_ROW has a column PARENT_ID which references CART_ROW.ROW_ID.
    Should we add a foreign key for PARENT_ID? Or are there any questions to consider when it is a foreign key to the same table?
    I suggest to add foreign key it wont harm the performance (except while on insert when there would be validation for the foreign key). But it would prevent users to insert wrong/corrupt data either through code or directly by loggin in the database.
    A while ago we added indexes, both on ROW_ID and on PARENT_ID. Could the index on PARENT_ID have been harmful, since there is no foreign key?
    Index on parent_id would only be harmful if you do not make use of index after creating it (i.e. there is no query which make use of this index).
    And if you decide to have a foreign key on parent_id then I suggest to have index too on parent_id as it would be helpful atleast when you delete any record in this table.
    Best regards!

  • How to generate report from two tables using DAO design pattern?

    Hi,
    Iam using struts with DAO pattern for my application. According to DAO design im creating model class for each table in my database with getter,setter methods. i have no problem when im generating report from one table. but if have i have to join two tables whatis the better way for doing that? is it good practise to create a new model contains properties from both the tables?
    Please help me
    Thanks in Advance
    Rajesh

    Dear Rajesh,
    As per the pattern you are creating equivalent java objects for every database table under consideration in which each db field will become a private attribute and public getter and setter methods.
    If you have to display data from one table the above approach is sufficient enough.
    But in case your database is normalised ..lets take an example of Bank having Branch and Accounts tables. We dont need to repeat the whole information of the branch for every account in that branch. so we prefer to have a branch id in that table....this approach lot of insertion/deletion/updatation anomlies that may exists with the database...
    now lets come back to our topic....we shall create two java objects 1) Branch 2) Account.....
    When ever u just need to display simple report u can do it staright forward,,,,,now if u want to display branch information along with the account information....the two objects just created are not sufficient
    So i suggest u the following approaches
    1) Create an attribute of type Branch in the Accounts Object......
    This shall serve the purpose of displaying the Btranch information
    2) Create a collection object of type ( Vector or ArrayList) which can have objects of Account in the Branch Object,,,
    Now its upto u how shall u fill up the objects with appropriate sql queries.
    The method that i mentioned is followed by Oracle Toplink and Hibernate ....which provide Object to relation mapping layers.
    Any queries ...revert back to me...

  • Creating reports for user tables using XL reporter

    Hi all
    i wish to create  a report based on user tables using the XL reporter.
    question is: is it possible? and if so how can it be done?
    appreciate the help
    Yoav

    Hi Yoav,
    XL Reporter cannot pull data from UDTs. However, you can use an Excel template when creating your XL Reporter report and then embed VBA code in the template to pull the UDT data in to the report after the XL Reporter has finished generating the report. It all depends on how you need to combine the UDT data with other SBO data. If you are interested in a report based entirely on UDT data then it would be simpler just to write the report using VBA in Excel (or Crystal).

    I did try a sample from stack overflow that would apply it to all string types, but I didn't see any query results differences.  Please note, I am having the problem without any order with or where statements. Of course the skip take generates them.  Please advise how I would implement the EntityFunctions.AsNonUnicode method with this Linq query.
    LINQ
    var cnt = (from errorLog in ctx.ERRORLOGANDSERVICELOG_VIEW
                        select errorLog).Count();
                    var query = (from errorLog in ctx.ERRORLOGANDSERVICELOG_VIEW
                                 orderby errorLog.ERR_LOG_ID
                                 select errorLog).Skip(cnt-10).Take(10).ToList();
    This is what I inserted into my model to hopefully fix it.  FROM:c# - EF Code First - Globally set varchar mapping over nvarchar - Stack Overflow
    /// <summary>
    /// Change the "default" of all string properties for a given entity to varchar instead of nvarchar.
    /// </summary>

    /// <param name="entityType"></param>

       DbModelBuilder modelBuilder,
       Type entityType)
       var stringProperties = entityType.GetProperties().Where(
      c => c.PropertyType == typeof(string)

  • Generating Text file from table using Shell script

    I am using KSH for generating and FTPing a text file from a table.
    While generating Text file I am not getting my Column names in orderly manner.
    q2="select COLUMN1||' '||COLUMN2||' '||COLUMN3 from table1;"
    set pagesize 0
    set head off
    set trimspool on
    set trimout on
    set colsep ' '

    select 'COLUMN1'||' '||'COLUMN2'||' '||'COLUMN3' from dual;
    $q2
    spool off;
    EOF
    I am getting the result some what like below in text file
    COLUMN1 COLUMN2 COLUMN3
    MALLIK_ACCT     17-SEP-11     908030482     
    MALLIK_ACCT     17-SEP-11     908266967     
    MALLIK_ACCT     17-SEP-11     909570766     
    I want the format like below
    COLUMN1........ COLUMN2 .... COLUMN3
    MALLIK_ACCT ...17-SEP-11 .... 908030482     
    MALLIK_ACCT ...17-SEP-11 .... 908266967     
    MALLIK_ACCT ...17-SEP-11 .... 909570766
    I put dots(.) for illustration purpose.
    column data length may icrease some times . it shoudl automatically adjust column and data so that they are in alignment. thanks in advance.

    Hi my question is to format the headers so that they will be in alignment with column data and readable.So you want to output a query as a fixed width format data file? How about this (rather than using scripts)...
