Pass a list of number values to a pl/sql function

I would like to pass a list of number values to a pl/sql function where the list will be used in an IN clause. Ideally I would like to do the following:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION ( dept_list in varchar2) is
begin
select ... where dept in (dept_list) ;
usage: process_list ( '7730,7735,7740,7745') ;
I can not find an example of doing this in pl/sql function but it seems feasible.
Is there a way to do this?

usage: process_list ( '7730,7735,7740,7745') ;The first thing is you need an appropriate data type to store a list of numbers. A single character value that looks to you like a list of numbers, is not in fact a list of numbers but a single character value.
This example uses the built in data type odcinumberlist in a procedure, you can do the same in function
Re: Passing an array to an Oracle stored procedure
If you have an old version of the database you may need to create your own type with the same definition of odcinumberlist.

How to pass multiselect list values to javascript?...

Hi, guys...
(continuation...)
Here is a Q. I have two multiselect lists item on the page. I need to use the values of these items in ODP. The button calls javascript, and javascript envoke ODP. Everything is working fine if i submit the page and then call javascript, But this is extra step and it's not kind of cool...
So i am looking for the way to pass the value of multiselect lists to javascript without submitting the page first...
Thnks...

Mike:
Try using v('page_item') instead of :page_item in the ODP code

Repopulating a multiselect list with saved values

Hi,
I am new to using HTML DB and have been searching the Internet on information I could find about it.
I found some useful information about multiselect boxes and can get the inserts to work but I am having problems with the repopulating of the multiselect from the underlying table.
I am using the following code to get the information from the table and the process point is On Load - After Header.
DECLARE
l_selected HTMLDB_APPLICATION_GLOBAL.VC_ARR2;
BEGIN
SELECT risk_owner_id BULK COLLECT
INTO l_selected
FROM rmd_risk_risk_owners
WHERE risk_id = :P34_RISK_ID;
:P34_RISK_OWNER_ID := HTMLDB_UTIL.TABLE_TO_STRING( l_selected );
END;
but the multiselect list doesn't seem to repopulate with the values.
Does anyone have an idea I what I could be doing wrong from their previous experience. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Regards,
Scott.

Lets break the problem statement in multiple steps
1. We need a way to know the selection on all rows.
2. We need the association of the checkBox with the data
The solution is to use a arrayCollection/array that holds all the instances created for checkbox.This collection should be a property of component containing the datagrid. We need to use a custom component implementation or inline ItemRenderer. The way you have used is called dropinItemRenderer. Preferaly use custom component implementation and add the instance to the arrayCollection at CreationComplete. Make sure you use addItemAt so that you add the instance in the same row as the data. To get rowIndex the custom Checkbox should implement IDropInListItemRenderer. You could iterate this collection to check all the instances that are checked.
Note: This is the approach considering your dataprovider doesnt have a selection field.

Passing dynamic list / array of values to Droplet

I want to know what's the best way to pass list of values as array or list to a droplet.
Any examples here?

u can refer to the following droplet , it uses both list and array

Multiselect List and Branches

Hi,
1. I understand that multiselect list problem has discussed here multiple times but I could not find any answer for my situation. May be someone can give me an advise.
I have a page that has 8 multiselect lists. A user makes his selection, presses button “Report” and gets redirected to the report page (say page A) that displays records according to the user selection. Report source on page A is PL/SQL function body returning SQL query.
I created the button “Report” with wizard (selected option Submit Page & Redirect to URL). Everything was working fine till report was created in the same browser window. But a customer wanted to have a report displayed as a new page. So I changed ”Optional URL Redirect” target from “No Target” as it was before to URL and inserted a call to the JavaScript as URL Target ( I use this approach on several other pages).
Now when a user presses “Report” button he is redirected to the page A but that page displays completely different set of records. It looks like multiselect lists values are not passed to the report on page A any more. What am I missing?
2. As I mentioned before a main page has 8 multiselect lists so SQL statement is very long and I will need to create a lot of different reports based on the selections in those multiselect lists .
Is it possible to create an Application Level Variable, pass “WHERE” part of the SQL statement into it when button “Report” is pressed ( button has setting Submit Page & Redirect to URL!) and then use it in the SQL report source to generate reports?
Thank you in advance.
Val

Scott,
Thank you for your reply.
At the moment I switched to the URL it stopped passing multiselect list parameters( I have javascript function in the HTML Header section and call this function from the button).
If I understand the problem correctly I do not submit page as it was before. Session window does not show any parameters.
The only reason I need this switch - create a report in a new window.

How to get the selected values from multiselected list

Hi,
I have a multiselect list displaying all the years from 2003 to 2008 (used dynamic LOV). The user can choose one or more years as per his needs, and then when user clicks on the link the selected values of the list are to be captured and a pop up page of a Discoveror report needs to be opened where these years get passed as a parameter. I tried several methods to capture the value, but either one or all are getting passed but not exactly what the user has chosen.
This is how it looks:
P2_FISCAL_YEAR is a multiselect list containing values from 2003,2004... 2008
If user chooses 2004 and 2007
then I want the url to capture these values and pass as parameters for my discoveror reports. as '&qp_fiscal_year=2004,2007'
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Sapna.

Help on Multiselect list

I created a Multiselect list for item :P5_REGIONS(USING DYNAMIC )
DYNAMIC QUERY IS
SELECT DISTINCT DEPTNO FROM DEPT;
Mutiselect list
10
20
30

50
I have another item name :P5_SELECTED_REGIONS
So what I want to do is
When user select multi values from Multiselect list
10,20,30,40
I want to display in :P5_SELECTED_REGIONS as string '10,20,30,40'
I have another Submit button which will take the :P5_SELECTED_REGIONS values and pass to database package
Any help is appreciated

Hi,
Add the following into the regions "Region Header" setting:
<script type="text/javascript">
function showSelected(item, field)
 var sel = new Array();
 var index = 0;
 for (var intLoop = 0; intLoop < item.options.length; intLoop++)
 if (item.options(intLoop).selected)
 index = sel.length;
 sel[index] = item.options(intLoop).text;
 $f_SetValue(field, sel.join());
</script>
add the following into the HTML Form Element Attributes for the select list:
onchange="showSelected(this, 'P5_SELECTED_REGIONS');"
That should do it.

ApEx How 2 turn a multiselect list value (eg. 1:2:3:4 ) into (1,2,3,4)

ApEx newbie here,
I'm trying to get the output of a multi select list into an in list of a sql query for a report. The error message I'm getting is report error:
ORA-01722: invalid number. (The inlist is a list of id numbers, and the data type for this column in the database is NUMBER)
I've got a page item called P3_x which is populated from a MultiSelect list. I learned that these come out as colon delimited strings. (found a reference to hidden items in a blog that helped me figure this out)
So I created a hidden item called P3_x_in_list which does this:
Select '('|| regexp(:p3_x,':',',')||')' from dual which turns this into a comma separated list, like so: (1,2,3,4)
I put this hidden item, P3_X_IN_LIST into the sql in my report region
So in the report my sql looks like:
select a, b, c
from t1
where id in: P3_x_in_list
and some_date between :P1_X and :P2_X
For some reason it throws an invalid number error when it runs. I haven't been able to find anything in the documentation or on the web that sheds any light on this. I'm hoping that there is a benevolent, experienced developer that can point me in the right direction. The debuging information from the page is below:
Here is the debugging information
0.24: ...Session State: Save "P3_X" - saving same value: "1:2:3:4:5"

Well, let's say you had a SQL statement like
select * from obj where object_id in 12345
where object_id is defined to be a number type.
Now, if you replace the literal '12345' with a bind variable and then bind "(1,2,3,4,5)" to this bind variable it will be clear why the SQL fails.
As for using pipeline functions it is pretty straightforwad
Here's an example
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE vc_array_1 AS TABLE OF VARCHAR2 (50);
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_list (
   p_string      IN   VARCHAR2,
   p_delimiter   IN   VARCHAR2 DEFAULT ':'
   RETURN vc_array_1 PIPELINED
IS
    l_string     varchar2(32000);
    l_array     wwv_flow_global.vc_arr2;
BEGIN
   l_array := apex_util.STRING_TO_TABLE(p_string,p_delimiter);
   for i in l_array.first..l_array.last loop
      pipe row (trim(l_array(i)));
   end loop;
   return;
end;
select column_value from table (get_list('1:2:3:4:5'));Your query can now be
select a, b, c
from t1
where id in (select column_value from table get_list(: P3_x_in_list)) )
and some_date between :P1_X and :P2_XVarad

Delete in database based on multiselect list values

Hi,
I have a selectlist in Apex and a function in the database to do some delete based on the selected value from the select list.
FUNCTION delete_batch (v_batch VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
BEGIN
IF v_batch like 'M%'
THEN
   RETURN ('A monthrun cannot be deleted');
ELSE
   DELETE FROM so_disco_pa
   WHERE batch = v_batch
   DELETE FROM so_batch_pa
   WHERE batch = v_batch
   COMMIT;
   RETURN ('Batch '||v_batch||' has been deleted');
END IF;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
    RETURN ('Batch could not be deleted');
END delete_batch;The package function is called when the delete button is clicked with following process:
BEGIN
DECLARE
x   varchar2(100);
BEGIN
x := pa_control.delete_batch (:P3_BATCH);
:F105_MESSAGE := x;
END;
END;Now I want to change the selectlist to a multiselect list so that multiple batches can be deleted.
How do I change my procedure and process to delete batches based on the selected values?
Thanks,
Diana

I got this so far, but only the first batch selected in the list is being deleted. The other selected batch values are not deleted.
Some help please.
FUNCTION delete_batch (v_batch VARCHAR2) RETURN varchar2
IS
T Apex_application_global.vc_arr2;
BEGIN
T := apex_util.string_to_table(v_batch);
For I in 1..t.count loop
IF t(i) like 'M%'
THEN
   RETURN ('A monthrun cannot be deleted');
ELSE
   DELETE FROM so_disco_pa
   WHERE batch = t(i)
   DELETE FROM so_batch_pa
   WHERE batch = t(i)
   COMMIT;
   RETURN ('Batch '||v_batch||' has been deleted');
END IF;
end loop;

Help with Multiselect List Item

Assuming one employee can work for multiple departments, I want to display the departments employee 7844 works for preselected in a multiselect list.
I am using the following query statement in a report region.
select htmldb_item.select_list_from_query_xl(1, deptno ,'select DEPTNO,DNAME from scott.dept ','MULTIPLE HEIGHT=25', 'Y',null,null,null,'Department',null) a from scott.emp where empno = 7844
The result I am seeing is a multiple multiselect lists with one department selected in each list.
How should I modify the query to get what I want?
Thanks

Hi blueforg,
It is not an SQL type...but a PL type... and karthik had put another proc in the pkg to assign the values...but i suppose it is not possible to assign values from outside the pkg....smthng like you have done...
i tried karthiks approach by defining a similar type outside
eg:
declare
    type t1_temp is record(contact_type_id number,
contact_email_id varchar2(20),
email_address varchar2(20),
email_priority varchar2(10));--same record as defined in PKG.
    t1_temp1 t1_temp:=t1_temp();
begin
t1_temp1.extend();
t1_temp1(1).id1:=1;
t1_temp1(1).id2:=1;
t1_temp1.extend();
t1_temp1(1).id1:=2;
t1_temp1(1).id2:=2;
p_test_pkg.p_test(t1_temp1);
end;--this does not seem to work...

How to get multiselect list values

I have a multiselect list set up called :P_Staff_ID which uses a LOV (select staff_name, staff_id from staff)
to display staff names to the screen.
What function can i use to get all the selected names in the list for my submit process?
Thanks
Ray

Ray,
The selected values will be returned as a colon delimited list, e.g.: 20:30:40:50
You can use the htmldb_util.string_to_table function to convert it to something a more suitable for inserting. This is the spec of the function from the documentation:
HTMLDB_UTIL.STRING_TO_TABLE (
p_string IN VARCHAR2,
p_separator IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT ':')
RETURN HTMLDB_APPLICATION_GLOBAL.VC_ARR2;
and a sample that loops over the values:
DECLARE
l_vc_arr2 HTMLDB_APPLICATION_GLOBAL.VC_ARR2;
BEGIN
l_vc_arr2 := HTMLDB_UTIL.STRING_TO_TABLE('One:Two:Three');
FOR z IN 1..l_vc_arr2.count LOOP
htp.p(l_vc_arr2(z));
END LOOP;
END;
