How do we use "streams" functionality in Oracle 8i?

Hello Gurus,
Oracle Streams is only available as of Oracle 9i. I need to replicate data from an Oracle 8i database to another database. The tables don't match exactly and i want a solution that can mimic streams. How can that be done? Is there any sample code available to do this type of streaming between Oracle 8i dbs?
Thanks.

You can use Materialized views (used to be called Snapshot) or Advanced Replication. But I think AR is an extra option not included in Enterprise Edition.
You could also develop trigger based replication using database link. But I advice you don't go that way. Don't reinvent the wheel. Think of what happens when one db goes down - you don't want the other to sink with it...
You should give Snapshot a try. Look for fast snapshot refresh. It uses incremental log, so it is a lot faster in most cases.
You need at least 9i R2 to use Streams, but you're better off with 10.2.0.3.

  • How I can use use_exit function in oracle forms

    Hi,
    I will appreacite if Somebody can help me , how I can configure the user_exit function for our Oracle Forms 10g development environment (Windows 32 ).
    With regards

    hi,
    in order to find out the user exits for any tcode,
    1. get the developement class of the tcode from SE93.
    2. Now goto transaction SMOD and press F4,
    3. give in the Deve class in the dev class and Press ENTER
    this will show u the exits for any tcode.
    or execute this report
    http://www.erpgenie.com/sap/abap/code/abap26.htm
    which gives the list of exits for a tcode

  • How to use "Rank" function  in Oracle?

    I need to display Top 15 records by using rank function.
    Here is my query...I need to pull top 15 FAQ's using the below query.. How can I use RANK function to display the Top 15 FAQ"s in the list.
    Select  distinct SUb1.FAQ,Sub1.FAQ_Hits,GU.display_Name_FMLS as displayname,ev.ParentLinkrecordid,ev.userid from User GU
    Join Event ev
    ON LOWER (ev.userid) IN (LOWER (GU.lanid), LOWER (Gu.racfid))
    Join (Select distinct sm.stem as FAQ,Sum(ev.Eventresults) as FAQ_Hits,ev.ParentLinkrecordid as Topic_ID from Event ev
    Join SubjectMatter sm
    ON (TO_CHAR (sm.smrecordid) = ev.eventdetail1) AND ev.eventdetail1 IS NOT NULL AND sm.smtype = 1
    Where (Upper(ev.eventsubtype) in (Upper('FAQ'),Upper('OPENFAQ')))
    AND TO_DATE (eventdatetime, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') >= TO_DATE ('20100601', 'yyyymmdd')
    and TO_DATE (eventdatetime, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') <= TO_DATE ('20100831', 'yyyymmdd')
    Group by sm.stem,ev.Parentlinkrecordid
    order by FAQ )sub1
    ON Sub1.Topic_ID = ev.ParentLinkrecordid)

    A few bits that I noticed in the query ...
    in (Upper('FAQ'),Upper('OPENFAQ'))1) Do you really a upper for a string which is already in upper case.
    Select distinct sm.stem as FAQ,Sum(ev.Eventresults) as FAQ_Hits,ev.ParentLinkrecordid as Topic_ID2) Do you need a distinct when you are using a GROUP function viz. SUM ?
    You rank query is as follows, I am not very good at the ANSI style JOIN so changed it slightly ... :-)
    Also notice the usage rank function in the "sub1" query.
    select distinct sub1.faq,
                    sub1.faq_hits,
                    gu.display_name_fmls as displayname,
                    ev.parentlinkrecordid,
                    ev.userid
    from user gu, event ev,
      (select rank() over (order by sum(ev.eventresults) desc) rnk,
              sum(ev.eventresults) as faq_hits,
              sm.stem as faq,         
              ev.parentlinkrecordid as topic_id
         from event ev, subjectmatter sm
        where (to_char(sm.smrecordid) = ev.eventdetail1)
          and ev.eventdetail1 is not null
          and sm.smtype = 1
          AND upper(ev.eventsubtype) in ('FAQ', 'OPENFAQ')
          and to_date(eventdatetime, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') >= to_date('20100601', 'yyyymmdd')
          and to_date(eventdatetime, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') <= to_date('20100831', 'yyyymmdd')
        group by sm.stem, ev.parentlinkrecordid
        order by faq) sub1
    where lower(ev.userid) in (lower(gu.lanid), lower(gu.racfid))
      and sub1.topic_id = ev.parentlinkrecordid)
      and sub1.rnk <= 15;Like mentioned above, some sample data would have helped.

  • How to find exception occured while using LOGON function in oracle 10g

    Hi,
    I am using LOGON function to login with a different user name in oracle 10g forms.
    LOGON ( User, Pass@tns, FALSE)
    The third parameter is passed as 'FALSE' to avoid the login screen to be opened. If any of the other parameter ( User Name, Password, TNS) is passed wrong, connection is not established but no exception is occurred. The value for 'FORM_FAILURE' is set to 'TRUE'.
    What i need is the ORA error for connection failure. The error message related to user name/password (ORA-01017) or connection identifier (ORA-12155).
    How i can get this error code if connection is failed. Is there any other way to login in oracle forms other than 'LOGON'.

    If you pass FALSE in login you can't catch anything. Want to catch the error ?
    Then change
    LOGON ( User, Pass@tns, FALSE)
    to
    LOGON ( User, Pass@tns, TRUE) Now Create On-Error trigger at form level
    and try the following code
    if error_code=01017 then
         message('invalid user name or password');
         message('invalid user name or password');
         raise form_trigger_failure;
    elsif error_code=12154 or error_code=1215 then
         message('invalid connection string');
         message('invalid connection string');
         raise form_trigger_failure;
    end if;Hopes this helps

  • Bulk Replacements using Replace function in oracle 8i

    Hi All,
    Iam using oracle 8i version and i need to use Replace function for bulf replacements i mean i need to replace around 250 rows. So please anyone suggest me how to proceed
    on this request as iam using oracle 8i version.
    Thanks!
    Srini

    Write one update statement.
    The where condition is the filter what rows need to be touched.
    The SET condition will do the data change. For example it could use the REPLACE function if that is what it is needed.
    One single update statement over 20 rows would mean the task is done in BULK. 20 single updates that each handle one row would mean it is row by row = slow by slow processing.

  • How can I use AGO function with aggregates

    I use aggregated table and a detailed table
    I have time hierarchy whose lowest level is date. For sales I
    created year-to-year (YTD) comparision with AGO function. It
    works OK.
    BUT, I want to speed it up, so I used aggregates. I created new
    time table grouped by MONTH and corresponding agg_SALES table. I
    created connections and mapped the fields. It works OK for
    normal queries, that means my queries at month level use
    aggregates. BUT when I add YTD measures or YAGO measure in query, it goes to
    then SALES table whose grain is date.
    How can I force BI Server to use AGO function with aggregates?
    I use OBIEE 10.1.3.4

    Hi,
    you can not do it in Administration tool but you can set agregation for that field in Answers (fx->Agregation rule->Sum) and effect should be the same. Note that it may not work properly on Oracle 10g as generated SQL is not 100% recognized, on 11g everything is OK (at least in my case).

    Hi ,

    what are the methods we can apply?

    Hi,
    This FM is used to get list of files from Application server (will work in Background). This cannot be used to list files from presentation server.  There is no way , by which you can process presentation server files in background mode.
