How to call a Function that will return me boolean value

Hi all ,
I am try to call a function that is included in my ApplictionModule the following is my method code
public boolean callUpdateDepartmentNameFunction(int deptNo,String newName)
boolean result=false;
System.out.println("first");
CallableStatement plsqlBlock =null;
System.out.println("sec");
String statement="BEGIN :3 = update_dname_func(:1,:2); END;";
System.out.println("third");
plsqlBlock=getDBTransaction().createCallableStatement(statement,0);
try{
System.out.println("forth");
plsqlBlock.registerOutParameter(3,OracleTypes.BOOLEAN);
plsqlBlock.setInt(1,deptNo);
plsqlBlock.setString(2,newName);
plsqlBlock.execute();
result=plsqlBlock.getBoolean(0);
catch(SQLException sqlException)
throw new SQLStmtException(CSMessageBundle.class,CSMessageBundle.EXC_SQL_EXECUTE_COMMAND,statement,sqlException);
finally
try{
plsqlBlock.close();
catch(SQLException e)
e.printStackTrace();
} return result;
while am runing my page is am getting error like
Error
1. JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.SQLStmtException, msg=JBO-27121: SQL error during statement execution. Statement: BEGIN :3 = update_dname_func(:1,:2); END;

How to create a function that will return a value of a JComboBox PLEASEHELP

this is my psuedo code,. but it's still not worked. Plase help..
String vpText;
String abc = getit();
String s_alert[] ={"WARNIGNS","CAUTIONS","NOTES"};
JComboBox CBweapon = new JComboBox();
for (int i=0;i<s_weapon.length;i++) {
CBweapon.addItem (s_weapon);
private String getit(){
CBweapon.addActionListener(new ActionListener (){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
wpText = (String)CBweapon.getSelectedItem() ;
return;
return wpText;

Maybe I'm missing some subtle point here, but why not just do this:
private String getit(){
return CBweapon.getSelectedItem() ;
It doesn't make sense to me to have a method which calls actionListener like this, as if you are going to be calling it over and over again. You want to only call actionListener(...) ONE time, and every time an event is triggered, that code will be executed automatically.

Function that will return fee description for a given folderrsn

Could someone help me make this function work. I am not sure how to add the else clause and when it is done how to call it. I know to call it I will need to input a folderrsn e.g 158744 and then that should show the fee description for that folder.
Reson for the function is to be used by other users instead of a select statement everytime. I will save it in a package.
FUNCTION F_GETFEEDESC (folderrsn_in IN NUMBER)
RETURN varchar2
IS
v_feedesc varchar2(2000);
cursor c1
is
SELECT vaf.feedesc
INTO v_feedesc
FROM folder f, accountbillfee abf, validaccountfee vaf
WHERE f.folderrsn = abf.folderrsn
AND vaf.feecode = abf.feecode
and f.folderrsn = folderrsn_in;
begin
open c1;
fetch c1 into v_feedesc;
if c1%notfound then
v_feedesc := 'Not found';
else
end if;
close c1;
return v_feedesc;
END;
this function when called using a folderrsn like 158744, it should return the fee description for that folder.

In the event that your table may have more than one record for any given value of folderrsn_in the open, fetch, close method will not suffer any difficulties, however using the select into method without adding a rownum = 1 clause to your where statement is setting the function up for sporatic failures.
Try this code instead:
FUNCTION F_GETFEEDESC (folderrsn_in IN NUMBER)
RETURN varchar2
IS
begin
    SELECT vaf.feedesc
    INTO    v_feedesc
    FROM    folder f, accountbillfee abf, validaccountfee vaf
    WHERE   f.folderrsn = abf.folderrsn
    AND     vaf.feecode = abf.feecode
    and     f.folderrsn = folderrsn_in
    and     rownum = 1;
    return v_feedesc;
EXCEPTION
    WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
        RETURN 'Not found';
END;

How to call c functions that expects c structs from java program?

i need to call from my java program to c functions that get
c structs as a parameters in their prototype.
as you probablly know java is not working with structs (classes only), so my question is how can i do it , i mean call the c functions that gets structs as parameters form java????

i believe your c function can accept a jobject and then inside your c function you have to translate that jobject into a c struct by using the jni methods.
the only reason your c function cant accept structs from java is because java does not have such structures. your c function can accept any data type that has been defined and a jobject has been defined.
if you have no control over the c functions that are being called, you need to write a wrapper function for those c function. the wrapper functions do the translation from jobject to a struct...then call the c other c functions.

JavaFX : How to call java function that returns hashtable and manipulate

I have a requirement to {color:#0000ff}create a java object in JavaFX script code{color}. Then call a java function using the created java object. The java function returns hashtable. Then traverse through each element of hashtable. Finally I need to create a similar structure in JavaFX.

If you need to use a Java class that uses generics you need to take special steps. Since JavaFX does not support generics you need to create a java wrapper to hide the calls that use generics and call the wrapper class from FX.

How to call a function in an item ?

hi,
i have an item where i want to call a function, which will return some different value in runtime in r/o of item value.
so how can i call a function?
thanks

Hi,
So you want to enter the data in to the item and display the result to that item itself?
Or the data is fetching from database, and you want to pass that value to the function, and display the result in to the item?
If your requirement is 2, then in the POST-QUERY trigger write,
:<block_name>.<item_name> := <function_name>(:<block_name>.<item_name>);And if your requirement is 1, then you can do in 2 ways,
1) If you don't want to see the entered data, and want to replace with the entered data.
write in the KEY-NEXT-ITEM trigger
:<block_name>.<item_name> := <function_name>(:<block_name>.<item_name>);2) if you want to see both values,
Then you have to add 1 more item, and in the new item's properties set as in my first post.
Regards,
Manu.

SOLVED: How can I use or call a function that returns %ROWTYPE?

Hi
edit: you can probably skip all this guff and go straight to the bottom...In the end this is probably just a question of how to use a function that returns a %rowtype. Thanks.
Currently reading Feuerstein's tome, 5th ed. I've downloaded and run the file genaa.sp, which is a code generator. Specifically, you feed it a table name and it generates code (package header and package body) that will create a cache of the specified table's contents.
So, I ran:
HR@XE> @"C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\My Documents\Work\SQL\OPP5.WEB.CODE\OPP5.WEB.CODE\genaa.sp"
749 /
Procedure created.
HR@XE> exec genaa('EMPLOYEES');which generated a nice bunch of code, viz:
create or replace package EMPLOYEES_cache is
    function onerow ( EMPLOYEE_ID_in IN HR.EMPLOYEES.EMPLOYEE_ID%TYPE) return HR.EMPLOYEES%ROWTYPE;
    function onerow_by_EMP_EMAIL_UK (EMAIL_in IN HR.EMPLOYEES.EMAIL%TYPE) return HR.EMPLOYEES%ROWTYPE;
    procedure test;
end EMPLOYEES_cache;
create or replace package body EMPLOYEES_cache is
    TYPE EMPLOYEES_aat IS TABLE OF HR.EMPLOYEES%ROWTYPE INDEX BY PLS_INTEGER;
    EMP_EMP_ID_PK_aa EMPLOYEES_aat;
    TYPE EMP_EMAIL_UK_aat IS TABLE OF HR.EMPLOYEES.EMPLOYEE_ID%TYPE INDEX BY HR.EMPLOYEES.EMAIL%TYPE;
    EMP_EMAIL_UK_aa EMP_EMAIL_UK_aat;
    function onerow ( EMPLOYEE_ID_in IN HR.EMPLOYEES.EMPLOYEE_ID%TYPE)
        return HR.EMPLOYEES%ROWTYPE is
        begin
            return EMP_EMP_ID_PK_aa (EMPLOYEE_ID_in);
        end;
    function onerow_by_EMP_EMAIL_UK (EMAIL_in IN HR.EMPLOYEES.EMAIL%TYPE)
        return HR.EMPLOYEES%ROWTYPE is
        begin
            return EMP_EMP_ID_PK_aa (EMP_EMAIL_UK_aa (EMAIL_in));
        end;
    procedure load_arrays is
        begin
            FOR rec IN (SELECT * FROM HR.EMPLOYEES)
            LOOP
                EMP_EMP_ID_PK_aa(rec.EMPLOYEE_ID) := rec;
                EMP_EMAIL_UK_aa(rec.EMAIL) := rec.EMPLOYEE_ID;
            end loop;
        END load_arrays;
    procedure test is

                pky_rec := onerow (rec.EMPLOYEE_ID);
                EMP_EMAIL_UK_aa_rec := onerow_by_EMP_EMAIL_UK (rec.EMAIL);
                if rec.EMPLOYEE_ID = EMP_EMAIL_UK_aa_rec.EMPLOYEE_ID then
                    dbms_output.put_line ('EMP_EMAIL_UK lookup OK');
                else
                    dbms_output.put_line ('EMP_EMAIL_UK lookup NOT OK');
                end if;
            end loop;
        end test;
    BEGIN
        load_arrays;
    end EMPLOYEES_cache;
/which I have run successfully:
HR@XE> @"C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\My Documents\Work\SQL\EMPLOYEES_CACHE.sql"
Package created.
Package body created.I am now trying to use the functionality within the package.
I have figured out that the section
    BEGIN
        load_arrays;
    end EMPLOYEES_cache;
/is the initialization section, and my understanding is that this is supposed to run when any of the package variables or functions are referenced. Is that correct?
With that in mind, I'm trying to call the onerow() function, but it's not working:
HR@XE> select onerow(100) from dual;
select onerow(100) from dual
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00904: "ONEROW": invalid identifier
HR@XE> select employees_cache.onerow(100) from dual;

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00936: missing expressionHe provides the code genaa.sp, and a very brief description of what it does, but doesn't tell us how to run the generated code!
Now, I have just done some googling, and it seems that what I am trying to do isn't possible. Apparently %ROWTYPE is PL/SQL, and not understood by SQL, so you can't call onerow() from sql. Correct?
So I try wrapping the call in an exec:
HR@XE> exec select employees_cache.onerow(100) from dual;
BEGIN select employees_cache.onerow(100) from dual; END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 30:

PLS-00221: 'ONEROW' is not a procedure or is undefined
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:

Of course, now that I'm looking at it again, it seems that the way to go is indicated by the first error:
PLS-00428: an INTO clause is expected in this SELECT statement
So am I supposed to create a type of EMPLOYEES%ROWTYPE in a PL/SQL procedure, and the idea of this code, is that the first call to onerow() runs the initialiation code, which populates the cache, and all subsequent calls to onerow() (whether by my session or any other) will use the cache?
I've had a stab at this, but still, no joy:
create or replace procedure testcache is
    emp employees%rowtype;
    begin
        select employees_cache.onerow(100) from dual into emp;
        dbms_output.put_line('Emp id: ' || emp.employee_id);
    end testcache;

Ha, figured it out

Hopefully you also figured out that the example is just that: a technical example of how to use certain Oracle functionality. Unfortunately it is also an example of what you should NOT do in an actual application.
That code isn't scaleable, uses expensive PGA memory, has no limit on the amount of memory that might be used and, contrary to your belief will result in EVERY SESSION HAVING ITS OWN CACHE of exactly the same data if the session even touches that package.
Mr. Feuerstein is an expert in SQL and PL/SQL and his books cover virtually all of the functionality available. He also does an excellent job of providing examples to illustrate how that functionality can be combined and used. But the bulk of those examples are intended solely to illustrate the 'technical' aspects of the technology. They do not necessarily reflect best practices and they often do not address performance or other issues that need to be considered when actually using those techniques in a particular application. The examples show WHAT can be done but not necessarily WHEN or even IF a given technique should be used.
It is up to the reader to learn the advantages and disadvantages of each technicalogical piece and determine when and how to use them.

That is correct. To be used by SQL you would need to create SQL types using the CREATE TYPE syntax. Currently that syntax does not support anything similar to %ROWTYPE.

NO! That is a common misconception. Each session has its own set of package variables. Any session that touches that package will cause the entire EMPLOYEES table to be queried and stored in a new associative array specifically for that session.
That duplicates the cache for each session using the package. So while there might be some marginal benefit for a single session to cache data like that the benefit usually disappears if multiple sessions are involved.
The main use case that I am aware of where such caching has benefit is during ETL processing of staged data when the processing of each record is too complex to be done in SQL and the records need to be BULK loaded and the data manipulated in a loop. Then using an associative array as a lookup table to quickly get a small amount of data can be effective. And if the ETL procedure is being processed in parallel (meaning different sessions) then for a small lookup array the additional memory use is tolerable.
Mitigating against that is the fact that:
1. Such frequently used data that you might store in the array is likely to be cached by Oracle in the buffer cache anyway
2. Newer versions of Oracle now have more than one cache
3. The SQL query needed to get the data from the table will use a bind variable that eliminates repeated hard parsing.
4. The cursor and the buffer caches ARE SHARED by multiple sessions globally.
So the short story is that there would rarely be a use case where ARRAYs like that would be preferred over accessing the data from the table.

How to define a function that returns a void?

Hi all,
How can I define a custom function that returns a void?
My understanding is simple UDF can only return a string.
Is there any way around this limitation?
Thanks.
Ron

Hi all,
Thank you all for your kind responses.
The scenario I have is I need to insert the value of a particular field into a database table. E.g. MessageId, to keep track of the messages going through XI.
Naturally, such operations return void. These operations are already encapsulated in a custom jar file.
My purpose of using a UDF is solely to invoke the operation.
But I realized I each UDF has to have a return type, and the output of this UDF must be mapped to a node in the outgoing message.
Currently, my UDF returns an empty string, by using the implementation as below, I manage to perform my desired operation without affecting the result:
MessageId -- UDF -- CONCAT -
InstitutionCD_Transformed
InstitutionCode_____
But as you can see, this is not an elegant way of doing things.
That's why I'm seeking alternative solutions for this problem.
Bhavesh, you mentioned something about doing the operation in the initialization/cleanup section.
Can you please explain more?
Thanks.
Ron

How to call C function in .m file from another function in a .mm file

I am making an interface class between a C library and an objetive C application.
I have not problem calling function the C library from .mm funstions,
but I am having problems calling .m functions from the .mm class.
here is an example of what I mean.
here in my .m vector file
*struct dVector*
* float m_x;*
* float m_y;*
* float m_z;*
* float m_w;*
*struct dVector InitVector (float x, float y, float z, float w);*
*struct dVector AddVector (struct dVector* A, struct dVector* B);*
*struct dVector SubVector (struct dVector* A, struct dVector* B);*
here is my .mm class
*#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>*
*@interface iNewton : NSObject*
* void* m_world;*
*-(id) init;*
*-(void) dealloc;*
-(void) CreateBox: (Entity*) ent: (int) shapeId;*
@end
here is the implemrntation of function funtion CreateBox in a .mm file
[code]-(void*) CreateBox: (Entity*) ent: (int) shapeId
struct dVector minBox;
struct dVector maxBox;
// this is fine
[ent GetBBox: &minBox: &maxBox];
//calculate the box size and dimensions of the physics collision shape
// this report a link errors, and I do no knwo why
struct dVector size = SubVector(&maxBox, &minBox);
struct dVector origin = AddVector (&maxBox, &minBox);
// thsi work without problemen
return NewtonCreateBox ((NewtonWorld*) world, size.m_x, size.m_y, size.m_z, shapeId, &offset.mfront.mx);
I get these compiler errors

Basically I can call objective C class methods from .mm files,
but I can not call functions who are not members of a class from .mm funtions.
Does any one knows how I can solve this?
I have two books on objective C and neither show how to do that.
Please I will apreciate if some one can help me with this.

why will tha be wrong?
ent is a objective C class with a method GetBBox
wich I use in hundred of places with out problem.
Beside that is not the problem that.
Well, you've got me on this one. You are correct. Apparently you don't need to specify the parameter names. Still, I strongly encourage you to use parameter names. Even though they apparently aren't required, I've never seen them not used. I would have expected to see:
[ent GetBBoxMin: & minBox max: & maxBox]
The problem is calling C function that are declared in .m files.
if you read the errors, they are linking errors not compiler errors.
this is a C function that is declared in a .m file
struct dVector size = SubVector(&maxBox, &minBox);
beside I also use those functions in many other place as well in teh project and they work.
If it helps I can post a link to the a download place to the xcode project maybe it is eassy to see what I am trying to do.
That would probably be a good idea.
Normally, all you need is
extern "C"
but there is so much missing from what you've posted that I can't tell for sure what is going on.

How to call a function every 45 minutes?

Hi..
How to call a function after 45 minutes evry day..
That function returns a value.
Which is best? Thread or using timestamp?
Regards

Hello Joe,
I heard of this website, gurgle something, that actually let's you put in words like "java" and "scheduling" and it will spit out other websites that mention these terms. Fascinating stuff, hopefully I'll find the time to test it someday soon..
Lucky for you I have an article discussing solutions to your problem in my bookmarks:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/web/library/j-schedule.html
With kind regards

How to call oracle function from ejb3

i'm trying to call an oracle query-function from ejb3.
The oracle function:
create or replace FUNCTION getSecThreadCount(secId in NUMBER,avai in NUMBER)
RETURN SYS_REFCURSOR is cur SYS_REFCURSOR;
m_sql VARCHAR2(250);
BEGIN
m_sql:='select count(thrId) from thread where secId='|| secid||'
and thrAvai='|| avai;
open cur for m_sql;
return cur;
END;
I'v tried several ways to call it,but all failed:
1. the calling code:
public Object getSectionThreadCount(int secId,int avai){
          Query query=manager.createNativeQuery("{call getSecThreadCount(?,?) }");
          query.setParameter(1, secId);
          query.setParameter(2, avai);
          return query.getSingleResult();
but i got the exception:
Exception in thread "main" javax.ejb.EJBException: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute query; nested exception is: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute query
javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute query
Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-06550: row 1, col 7:
PLS-00221: 'GETSECTHREADCOUNT' not procedure or not defined
ORA-06550: row 1, col 7:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
2. the calling code:
@SqlResultSetMapping(name = "getSecThreadCount_Mapping")
@NamedNativeQuery(name = "getSecThreadCount",
query = "{?=call getSecThreadCount(:secId,:avai)}",
resultSetMapping = "getSecThreadCount_Mapping",
hints = {@QueryHint(name = "org.hibernate.callable", value = "true"),
          @QueryHint(name = "org.hibernate.readOnly", value = "true")})
public Object getSectionThreadCount(int secId,int avai){
          Query query=manager.createNamedQuery("getSecThreadCount");
          query.setParameter("secId", secId);
          query.setParameter("avai", avai);
          return query.getSingleResult();
but i run into the exception:
Exception in thread "main" javax.ejb.EJBException: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute query; nested exception is: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute query
javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute query
Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: lost in index IN or OUT parameter:: 3
By the way, i have successfully called the function from hibernate. And i use oracle 11g, JBoss5 RC1.
Could anyone tell me how to call the function from EJB3?
Thanks.

}Basically you just ignore the refcursor outbound parameter.
This is a stored function, have yet to try outbound refcursor parameters in stored procedures...
