How to bind variables to a LOV query

Hi,
I have a page with a messageLOVInput field. I have attached an external LOV with it. The query attached to the LOVregion has a bind parameter which should be replaced by the logged in Person's Business Group ID.
I have done all the required LOV Mappings etc for a normal LOV.
If I hardcode the business group ID and then run the page, its working fine. But if I want to bind the businessgroup id at runtime, I am getting an error saying "all variables not bound"
I tried the usual method of calling some initMethod in AM from the CO of the external LOV region, and then calling some initQuery in the VO to set the bind parameter, but this doesn't work.
How do I bind variables at runtime with the LOV VO ?
Thanks, in advance !!

Hi Deb,
Heres what you gotta do.
By default the query is going to be executed in the EO . In case of a query without any bind variables this works fine. This is because for LOV EO's one doenst' have to explicitly call the the executequery method. In your case, there is one bind variable that needs to be set, before any query is fired, either implicitly or explicitly else you are going to get Bind variable not set exception.
1. Define an init query method in your EOImpl.
public void initQuery(String p_param)
setWhereClause(null);
setWhereClauseParams(null);
setWhereClauseParam(0,p_param);
2. Define a method for initializing the query. In your AM IMPL for the LOV, recieve the EOIMPL and call the initquery method and pass the parameter that you would to base the query upon.
3. In the CO for the LOV, call the AMimpl Method defined in step 2.
Let me know if this works ? If you still have problems, I will post some sample code.

BUG ? : ADF creating extra VO instance using bind variables in a LOV query

ADF 11.1.1.1.0
After "playing around" with bind variables Setting bind variables in view objects for LOV I've come across something strange that I've reproduce using the HR schema and tables Employees and Departments. Its a bit long but here goes :
Using the HR schema tables departments and employeesI'm trying to create a LOV (selectOneChoice) for the
employee department, the LOV having a bind variable that limits the values returned in this case returning only DepartmentId = 50
I've create a VO lovDepartment (not based on an EO) with the following query :
SELECT Departments.DEPARTMENT_ID,
       Departments.DEPARTMENT_NAME,
       Departments.MANAGER_ID,
       Departments.LOCATION_ID
FROM DEPARTMENTS Departments
where DEPARTMENT_ID = :pDeptIdA LOV has been defined on the DepartmentId attribute of the EmployeesView.
The lovDepartmentImpl overrides the executeQueryForCollection to set the bind variable value.
    @Override
    protected void executeQueryForCollection(Object object, Object[] object2,
                                             int i) {
        setNamedWhereClauseParam("pDeptId", "50");
        super.executeQueryForCollection(object, object2, i);
    }When using an ADF form to create a new employee the DepartmentId lov is empty.
Enabling SQL tracing shows the following :
[370] _LOCAL_VIEW_USAGE_model_EmployeesView_lovDepartment1_0 ViewRowSetImpl.doSetWhereClause(-1, pDeptId, null)
[371] _LOCAL_VIEW_USAGE_model_EmployeesView_lovDepartment1_0 ViewRowSetImpl.execute caused params to be "un"changed

and one at line 374 LOCALVIEW_USAGE_model_EmployeesView_lovDepartment1
The one at line 374 LOCALVIEW_USAGE_model_EmployeesView_lovDepartment1 gets the variable bound at line 374
however LOCALVIEW_USAGE_model_EmployeesView_lovDepartment1_0 gets a null value and would explain the empty LOV
Can anybody explain what is happening here ? (and how to use bind variables in LOV queries)

I've now tried all types of LOV from ChoiceList to Radio groupe by testing the application module - none of them work.....

when you rinvoke executeQueryForCollection the bind variables are allready set and they exist in Object[] object2 method parameters.
in order to change them you need something like:
private void changeGenericBindVariable(Object[] params, String paramName, Object paramValue) {
for (int i = 0; i < params.length; i++) {
if (paramName.equals(((Object[])params)[0].toString()))
((Object[])params[i])[1] = paramValue;
* executeQueryForCollection - overridden for custom java data source support.
protected void executeQueryForCollection(Object qc, Object[] params,
int noUserParams) {
changeGenericBindVariable(params, "pDeptId", "50")
super.executeQueryForCollection(object, object2, i);
But its better to set bind variables before you executeQueryForCollection. like when you invoke LOV.

Extract the "bind" variables for a given query running in 10g.

how can we extract the "bind" variables for a given query running in 10g? The performance of a query may vary based on the parameters supplied to it. For example, a query like the following
SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER_ORDERS WHERE CUSTOMER = :CUST_ID
.might run differently when the :CUST_ID is "123" who may have very few orders versus "456" who may have tens of thousands of orders.
So, if we see a spike in the system due to a query, we need visibility into what the exact query syntax and values are for any database session. We're aware of an Oracle view called V$SQL_BIND_CAPTURE, but what we're finding with this view is that it's only a snapshot of variables that are refreshed on an interval. That view does not give us a live view into what values are being used in the various sessions in realtime.
If someone ould provide us with some SQL (or other means) to do get a realtime view into the SQL and variables currently running in the database, it would be greatly appreciated.

In addition to what's been said in the other thread, you could add a layer of logging either in the database or out.
v$sql_bind_capture and the associated ash view dba_hist_sqlbind contain sample data.
You could up the sample rate but it's not advisable - it's still just a sample.
If you're on 11g, this is where adaptive cursor sharing might help.
Not help in finding the values of your binds, but help in using different plans where there is such a skew for different bind values and the plan is perhaps wrong for customer 456.
The problem when you're got such a skew and you're using bind variables is that the two don't really go together.
When the query is next parsed and you've got bind variable peeking enabled, you might get the 123 plan is that is the bind value at parse time and then run into problems for 456 or even vice versa.
See http://jonathanlewis.wordpress.com/2009/05/06/philosophy-1/ for a discussion on binds and histograms which reflects the reasons for using either.

How to set a bind variable into a vo query from the current vo ?

I would like to exclude from my list of values defined in a view object the already referenced items in the current view object content.
Let's say i have dept and emp with a many to many relationships, I would like that the already existing dept for emp not listed (excluded) in the list of values for emp.
Do i need to define a bind parameters and set it during search or is it possible to use an expression that will refer the current row attribute representing the dept ?
I didn't find an example or explanation how to set bind parameters defined in a view object query from seach pages or list of values ui components. May be somebody know how to find the info.
Thank you

I think that bind variable accessors in the VO class is what you need. You can override the getter method of the bind variable "LocaleCode2" in order to return the first 2 chars from the bind variable "LocaleCode". Have a look at this blog post for details:

Binding a variable to an LOV query, not working... Urgent!

Hi,
Based on a column value(which gets populated at runtime), in a table, the LOV query for another column in the same table, should be restricted with this value.
1. My LOV is based on a VO.
Lov query is
SELECT ped.full_name as employee_name,
ped.employee_number as employee_number
FROM p_employee_details ped
WHERE ped.value = 'Y' and ped.work in (:1, 'Both')
2. For binding the variable, I have a method in VOImpl of the LOV.
public void initQuery(String p_param)
setWhereClauseParams(null);
setWhereClauseParam(0,p_param);
3. This method is called in the LOVAMImpl
public void initializeVO(String p_param)
LovVOImpl lovVO = (LovVOImpl)getLovVO1();
lovVO.initQuery(p_param);
4. In the CO for the LOV RN, the LOVAMimpl Method defined in step 3 is called.
public void processRequest(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean)
super.processRequest(pageContext, webBean);
OAApplicationModule lov_am = (OAApplicationModule) pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
Dictionary lov_dict = pageContext.getLovCriteriaItems();
String lov_criteria = (String) lov_dict.get("work");
Serializable lov_params[] = {lov_criteria};
lov_am.invokeMethod("initializeVO",lov_params);
Here "work" is the column in the table whose value is needed for binding the lov query
But i am still getting an error saying not all variables bound.:
Developer Mode Exception : Lov Input should by default be the queryable criteria and Result.
I don't know what else to do.
Thanks in advance

HI,
Here the code giving on starting of the thread will work,only problem is lov mapping over here which was same as mine , u have to create one more lov mapping which will have criterial item same as the field on which lov is based.
Thanks

How to put variable selection and the query result the same screen

Dear all,
how can I put the variable selection and the query result in the same screen? Please advise. Thanks.
Jin Ming

Not sure if you are saying you want the prompts on the same page as the results... however in 7.0 with BEx Analyzer, you can insert a text object from the design toolbar and assign it to the variable.... this way, lets say you run query for period 6, then the text object will display "6" on the same area where the query results are.

How to pass variable to jump to query !

hello Experts !
i have a query with variable "Month". so when i run that , user enters the Month/year and it gives the results for "Employee ID" for that month/year.
i have also creted another query on dso, in order to get detail line item information abt " Employee ID" and join this query with the main one thru RRI.
in RRI , i have selected "Employee ID" as single value field for both the query. the problem is when i do GOTO from the first query , it does work and gives me the result, but it gives records corresponds to that "Employee id"for all the months and year.
How do i also pass "Month" - variable value along with that "Employee id" so that the second query only shows line item for that employee id for that selected month.
thanx

Hi,
The use of jump query is to get the detailed level information, for the key figure values which appears in main query.
This mainly happen when in your cube design you do not details information.
For example:
In your main query output you have :
division , company code , variable amount
Rec1)10, 1012,4000
Rec2)20,1001,5000
Now you want to know what are the document numbers involved to get the variable amount:
So now , you jump query output will be for record no 1.
Document number , variable amount
100001,500
100002,1000
100003,2000
100004,500
So now you can see that jump query is giving you the documents numbers which are total of 4000.
Once you have variable in main query , the jump will give details of those keyfigur values only.
In case of jump query you need not to have any variable , it will automatically take from parant query.
Though you can define varaible for jump also.
I hope it clear your doubt
Thanks

How to transfer variable value from one query to another query?

I create two queries which contain the same variable "Year" and "Month".
In the wad,Query1 is used to be a table and Query2 is used to show the chart in the condition with the same variable value of Query1
So I want to transfer the variable value from query1 to query2.
Can anyone help me ?

Let me explain the issue in detail.
In Query Designer, both the year and month variables are defined by user exit function to read current year and month and can be modified during the query runtime.
In WAD, Query1 is used to be a table with a table interface to hyperlink a chart which is defined by Query2 with the same variable value of Query1.
During the runtime of template, if I change the variable value of Query1 , I want the variable of Query2 to be changed automatically with the same new value.
So in the table interface of Query1 , I write the ABAP code in "SE24" and related source code to the variable is following:
concatenate
'function fire_urlJGSP_Col(filter) {'
Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
'chart_url="' url '" + "&CMD=LDOC'
'&TEMPLATE_ID=GCCHART_9' "WEB ID of the work book
'&PAGEID=Graphics' "Name of the view
'&CMD=PROCESS_VARIABLES&SUBCMD=VAR_SUBMIT&VAR_NAME=Z2MYEAR&VAR_VALUE_EXT=" + filter'
Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
'openWindow(chart_url,"chart_window","dependent=yes","600",'
'"450","true")'
Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
into l_coding.
In this way , I can only transfer the year variable value from Query1 to Query2 and not two variables .
So , how shall I do to transer the two variable value in the same?

How to pass a value to a bind variable in a query report in oracle apex

Hi Guys,
I have requirement to send weekly reports via email to some users. The users should receive their own records in the report. The user details is stored in a table. What I am planning to do is to create a report query in oracle apex to generate the report and then run a function/procedure via a scheduler to email the report to respective users. Now my query is ............. is it possible to pass a value (user name) to the report query to pull records of only that user? I know we can have bind variables in the report query but I have no idea how to pass a value for bind variables from a function/procedure.
Can anyone help me on this issue or suggest a better approach?
Thanks,

Need help in Bind variable in AF Query LOV

Hi,
i have one problem with bind variable, if i use bind variable in the LOV VO Query then my result is not coming, if there is not bind variable it's working fine and if i use the bind variable in the LOV search option then it's working fine but if i hide the bind variable and set the value in AM prepareSesstion method the LOV is not returning any value. I try to return the values also all values are also coming but those values are not setting to AF Query Attribute.
Query is:
select substr(d.description,0,40) description
from cm_system_users a,
cm_user_responsibilities b,
cm_responsibility_processes c,
cm_processes d
where a.nt_login =:B_NT_LOGIN
and a.user_id = b.user_id
and trunc(sysdate) between b.eff_date and nvl(b.exp_date,sysdate + 1)
and b.RESPONSIBILITY_ID = c.RESPONSIBILITY_ID
and c.process_type = d.process_type
and d.enabled_flag = 'Y' order by d.arguments_flag
AM Method:
CmProcessViewImpl vo = getCmProcessView();
String nt_login = getUserPrincipalName();
vo.setNamedWhereClauseParam("B_NT_LOGIN", nt_login.toUpperCase());
vo.executeQuery();
Can any one help me in this. it's urgent for me.

This is a little underdescribed. IIUC, the view object in question is being used as a target for a view accessor, correct? (Otherwise you'll have to be more explicit about what you mean by "Query LOV".
If I'm right, there are two possibilities:
1) You are using a VO instance in a shared application module instance. If so, make sure your code is in the prepareSession() for that application module class if it's session dependent (as it seems to be below), you need to make sure the application module instance is shared at session scope.
2) You've based the view accessor directly on the VO definition. This basically creates an anonymous VO instance; I don't think there's any way to use prepareSession() to set a bind variable on such an instance (which won't be created until the accessor is first used). You might be able to get by with putting similar code into the view object class' create() method, but I haven't tested this.
If your code is in your primary application module class (as opposed to the class for a shared AM instance), the problem here is that getCmProcessView() returns the VO instance from that application module instance's design-time data model, which is never used by view accessors.
By the way, why do you need to do this in prepareSession() instead of at the view accessor level? I believe you can get the logged in user name (for the view accessor) in with the groovy expression
viewObject.DBTransaction.session.userPrincipalName
or possibly just
DBTransaction.session.userPrincipalName
(despite this involving DBTransaction, it returns the web app user name, not the DB username).
That's a 100% declarative solution, if you don't count the Groovy expression as non-declarative.
If you're afraid of a user executing the LOV (somehow) before the bind variable value gets set, just ensure that the bind variable is marked "required".

Query don't use the right index when using bind variables

Hi people !
I need some help because I have an issue with a query that don t use the right Indexes as it should
First of all, I have mainly three tables :
ORDER : Table that contains description for each Order (approximately 1 000 000 Records)
ORDER_MVTS : Table that contains the tasks made (called movements) to set up each Orders
with quantity of packages prepared for each product (approximately 10 000 000 Records)
PRODUCT : Tables that contains the products (approximately 50 000 Records)
When I launch the query with hard coded values, it brings back response very fast
because it uses the right index (ORDER_DHR_VALID) which represent the date and hour of the order
(with format 'DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'). The selectivity for this index is good.
NB 1: I have to use the trick " >= Trunc(date) and < trunc(date) +1 " to filter on a simple date because
the index contains hour and minutes (I know it wasn't probably a bright idea at conception time).
NB 2: The index on ORDER_MVTS.PRODUCT_CODE is'nt discriminating enough because there is'nt enough different products.
It's the same for index on CUSTOMER_CODE and on MVT_TYPE so only the index on ORDER.DHR_VALID is good.
Here is the correct explain plan when I execute the query with hard coded values :
SELECT SUM(ORDER_MVTS.NB_PACKAGE)
FROM ORDER_MVTS, PRODUCT, ORDER
WHERE ORDER.DHR_VALID >= TRUNC(to_date('14/11/2008 10:04:56','DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'))
AND ORDER.DHR_VALID < TRUNC(to_date('14/11/2008 10:04:56','DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS')) + 1
AND ORDER_MVTS.MVT_TYPE = 'DELIVERY'
AND PRODUCT.CODE = ORDER_MVTS.PRODUCT_CODE
AND ORDER_MVTS.ORDER_CODE = ORDER.CODE
AND ORDER.CUSTOMER_CODE = 'ADIDAS'
AND PRODUCT.CODE = 1234
Rows Row Source Operation
1 SORT AGGREGATE
2 NESTED LOOPS
4 NESTED LOOPS
2 INDEX UNIQUE SCAN (object id 378548) --> PRODUCT_PK
4 TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID ORDER
777 INDEX RANGE SCAN (object id 378119) --> ORDER_DHR_VALID
2 TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID ORDER_MVTS
30 INDEX RANGE SCAN (object id 377784) --> ORDER_MVTS_ORDER_FK
Now the problem is when the query is used in a Cursor with bind variables.
It seems like Oracle don't use index on ORDER.DHR_VALID because he can't figure out that he have
to actually filter on a short period of time (only one day).
So Oracle uses the index on ORDER_MVTS.PRODUCT_CODE which is'nt a bright idea (it takes 10 secondes instead of just one)
Here is the bad explain plan :
Rows Row Source Operation
1 SORT AGGREGATE
2 NESTED LOOPS
722 NESTED LOOPS
2 INDEX UNIQUE SCAN (object id 378548) --> PRODUCT_PK
722 TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID ORDER_MVTS

2 TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID ORDER
1442 INDEX UNIQUE SCAN (object id 378439) --> ORDER_PK
Now I have found two solutions to this problem :
1) using a Hint to force the use of index on ORDER.DHR_VALID (with /*+ INDEX(ORDER ORDER_DHR_VALID) */ )
2) Using Dynamic SQL and keeping the date hard coded (but not the other values except mvt_type)
For example :
QUERY :=
'SELECT SUM(ORDER_MVTS.NB_PACKAGE)
FROM ORDER_MVTS, PRODUCT, ORDER
WHERE ORDER.DHR_VALID >= TRUNC(TO_DATE('''||To_char(P_DTE_VAL,'DD/MM/YYYY')||''',''DD/MM/YYYY'')) '||
AND ORDER.DHR_VALID < TRUNC(TO_DATE('''||To_char(P_DTE_VAL,'DD/MM/YYYY')||''',''DD/MM/YYYY'')) + 1 '||
AND ORDER_MVTS.MVT_TYPE = 'DELIVERY'
AND PRODUCT.CODE = ORDER_MVTS.PRODUCT_CODE
AND ORDER_MVTS.ORDER_CODE = ORDER.CODE
AND ORDER.CUSTOMER_CODE = :CUSTOMER
AND PRODUCT.CODE = :CODE ';
These two solutions work but Number 1 is bad in theory because it uses a Hint
and Number 2 may be difficult to code.
So my question is : Does someone knows another solution to force the use of index ORDER_DHR_VALID that can be simple and reliable.
Thank you very much for support

What version of oracle you have? CBO work is different in 9i and 10g.
Usually cost based optimizer do not want to use index for >< condition with binding variables because optimizer can not use statistic to determine selectivity, and by default selectivity of <> operators is low.
(As I remember '>' selectivity by default is 5%, you have two conditions > and <, therefore resulting selectivity will be 0.05*0.05=0.0025 as two independent events, but selectivity of other conditions
ORDER_MVTS.MVT_TYPE = 'DELIVERY' or ORDER.CUSTOMER_CODE = 'ADIDAS' looks much better for CBO)
The best solution I see is do not use binding variables. Actually your query looks as searching query, which executes not so often, therefore you will not have perfomance win along of skipping execution plan creation.
