Edited by: Deekay on Aug 2, 2012 12:40 AMYou can use as
SELECT BPW
FROM BLACKLISTPASSWORD
WHERE lower(BPW) LIKE 'welcome%'This will return
Welcome
Welcome1
Welcome123
If you want Output as
>
Welcome1
Welcome123
>
i.e. Welcome followed by a/more digits; Below works on Oracle 10g or higher.
SELECT BPW
FROM BLACKLISTPASSWORD
WHERE regexp_like(BPW, 'welcome[[:digit]]+', 'i');

How tio use like operator in textitem to get the name

Oracle forms6i
Hai All
I have created an form to create an hierarchy list. I that I had an Text_item how can i use like operator to get the name to select. which trigger i need to use. when i select the name i need to get his employee code and other details
Thanks In Advance

A is the head of Dept 10 and three person are under A namelyHow will you know that B, C and D are under A is there any parent child relationship between Leader and Employee code? If yes, Then you can create the relationship between blocks no need to set where_clause programatically. So, relationship can be like...
leader_block.emp_code = emp_block.leader_code
AND leader_blokc.dep_code = emp_block.dep_codeSo, when you will query data in LEADER block it will show employees which are under LEADER which you queried in LEADER block.
Or if there is no relationship then how will you know that which employee under which leader?
b 002 10 1
c 003 10 1
d 004 10 1
When i enter the name of head corresponding other members in the department will need to display in the
Tabular format Or if you want to query the records only for department relation. Then as you said you create two blocks then create create the relationship using dep_code between those blocks.
like...
leader.dep_code = emp_block.dep_code-Ammad

How to use LIKE operator with PreparedStatement

Hi, I need to execute a query with the LIKE operator, but using a PreparedStatement. Can I do this, and if so what must my SQL look like with the wildcard characters '%' or '_'?
normal PS example: conn.prepareStatement("select * from mytable where name like ?");
If I try: conn.prepareStatement("select * from mytable where name like ?%");
I get: ORA-00911: invalid character
If I try: conn.prepareStatement("select * from mytable where name like '?%'");
I get: ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist
I must use a PreparedStatement, as my variable may contain illegal characters (like '), and using PreparedStatement.setString(1, var) will automatically escape it for me.
I could also use a normal Statement, but I need to escape my var ... is there a utility that will safely escape a String for an Oracle VARCHAR2??
Thanks in advance,
Stu Miller

Hmm, it seems you are right...
when my variable contains a '%' symbol, the PreparedStatement will NOT escape it, and thus it is treated like a wildcard. Therefore, I can just do
pstmt.setString(1, var+"%");
But, that may return more results than I'm asking for, as when 'var' contains a '%' symbol it is taken as a wildcard too.
I need each character in my variable to be taken literally, and only add a wildcard at the end. Basically, I need a STARTSWITH operator ;-)
It seems to me that escaping the sensitive characters in a String (which will differ depending on which operator is used), should be possible. I could write this, but I was hoping Oracle had already done it for me in some utility class.

How to append records in MSAccess through Java using JDBC:ODBC

Hello,
I was able to retrieve records from MSAccess database through JAVA over the JDBC-ODBC bridge.
If I want to append records to a table (for eg. photo1 table containing photono., length, breadth, area as
columns) I could not able to do so through JAVA.
I am using JTable with the above fields. The user is displayed with the JTable and he has to enter
data inside the JTable and press a button titled "Append". Then the JAVA program should append
whatever the user has entered in the JTable as a single record inside the MSAccess database.
Can anyone help me please?

How to access C/C++ functions in Java using existing .dll library

Hi JNI Guru's,
I am having well written API in C/C++.This C/C++ files are made into *.dll files.The api are working fine.
I wan't access the C/C++ api functions in Java., just using System.LoadLibrary("*.dll").Is it possible.I kindly request you to suggest some examples and how to do this.
Its Urgent !.
Thanks and Regards,
V K LAL

In general you cannot simply access dlls that have already been written. The DLLs called using JNI must conform to JNI calling standards.
This means you will probably have to write one or more "wrapper" dlls which a) provide the correct JNI interface, and b) call the existing dlls.
There are some programs around that claim to be able to generate such wrappers. Try a google search for "wrapper", "jni", "generate".
The JNI tutorial covers creating wrappers.

How to determine if string contains HashSet item using LINQ

Hi,
I know how to iterate through a HashSet to see if an item is contained in a string. But, I can't quite figure out how to do it with LINQ.
Something like if( string.Contains(???))
I would appreciate any help!
Thanks much!!

Thanks everyone. I like the examples posted above.
Actually, what I want to know is if any HashSet values can be found in a string using LINQ
HashSet<string> terminals = new HashSet<string>();
terminals.Add("FD4A");
terminals.Add("FD4B");
terminals.Add("FD4C");
//a collection of a bunch of transactions done at various terminals
List<string> transactionList = new List<string>();
foreach (string transaction in transactionList)
    foreach (string terminal in terminals)
       if (transaction.Contains(terminal) == true)
            //this is one of the transactions I want - do something
            break;
Thanks much and have a great weekend!!

Or else if you want to replace ASSOC to Assoc. Then you can use Search_Replace also
it will generate a XML script
The expected output as follows in the below screen. As per your requirement you can you any one of this.

JAXB: How to unmarshal from xml contains two schemas?

Hi, all.
My question is in subject.
Ex.)
schema1.xsd:
(snip)...
<xsd:element name="xxx">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:any namespace="##other" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" processContents="lax"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
...(snip)
schema2.xsd:
(snip)...
<xsd:element name="yyy">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element ref="zzz" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
<xsd:element name="zzz" type="xsd:string"/>
if I have a xml like the following, xml validation is correct:
sample.xml:
(snip)...
<ns1:xxx xmlns:ns1="...(schema1.xsd)...">
<ns2:yyy xmlns:ns2="...(schema2.xsd)...">
<ns2:zzz>SAMPLE</ns2:zzz>
</ns2:yyy>
</ns1:xxx>
I want to unmarshal from this xml using JAXB, but actually ths xxx didn't have any tag in List class given getAny() method, because xxx doesn't know about yyy, I think.
These schemas cannot change as requirements of customer.
How to unmarshal from xml contains two schemas using JAXB?
tx.

I solved it myself.
JAXBContext can be specified many context path at same time.
Ex.)
context = JAXBContext.newInstance("package1:package2:package3...");
So, unmarshaller can know how to choose what be instanced.
