How to catch possible bind variable performance impact during development?

Since producing load is a problem on development environment and the technics provided with Oracle can capture a parsing problem caused by a bind variable problem only after execution we are looking for pro-active solution like 10g compile time warnings stuff.
Using binds can have impact on indexed skewed data columns and paritioned tables, so lets just think about a typical oltp environment with always same access path results for similar queries using bind variables.
Using v$ views or even better dba_hist after 10g or 10046 trace are considered as re-active approaches since they can only be examined on a pre-production loaded environment.
Is there any tool or approach you are using or may suggest?
Thank you, best regards.

Are you using PL/SQL only?
If so, I'd look at all the EXECUTE IMMEDIATE's and DBMS_SQL calls throughout the code and determine one by one if they pose a threat. They should be rare, so a simple search against the USER_SOURCE could be sufficient.
Other programming languages will have different statements to watch out for.
I am not aware of any tool that does this for you.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Rob.

How to declare a bind variable with 'date' data type in command prompt?

how to declare a bind variable with 'date' data type in command prompt?
sql>variable q date;
when i execute it show list of datatypes

Hi,
As Lokanath said, there are no DATE bind variables.
You can use a VARCHAR2 bind variable, and convert it to a DATE in your SQL statment.
If you're using SQL*Plus, consider a substitution variable. It won't be as efficient as a bind variable, but it will be as convenient.
For example:
DEFINE first_entrry_date = "DATE '2010-06-20''
SELECT   ...
WHERE   entry_date >= &first_entry_date
{code}

How can i create "bind variable"

How can i create "bind variable" in my DB to support any procedure in my DB.
Thank you very much.

In SQL*PLUS we can defined bind variable
SQL>var x varchar2(250); -- Is x bind variable or i'm misunderstand ?
and ... in my procedure i can used ' &x ' to pass valued of 'x' from sql prompt to my procedure.
but i'm not sure variable x is still remain in DB because i need to pass variable
" v_stmt := 'and employee_id between ..... ' " from FORM to PROCEDURE in DB
how can i do

How to properly set bind variables

Dear All,
I am currently confused about how to properly set my Bind Variables
I have this view using HR standard schema
Select *
from Employees
where EMPLOYEE_ID = :EMP_IDI somehow see three options on how to use this bind variable in an application module.
Option 1:
ViewObjectImpl view = this.getEmployeesView();
VariableValueManager vm = view.ensureVariableManager();
vm.setVariableValue("EMP_ID", value);
view.executeQuery();Option 2:
ViewObjectImpl view = this.getEmployeesView();
view.setNamedWhereClauseParam("EMP_ID", value);
view.executeQuery();Option 3:
EmployeeViewImpl empView =this.getEmployeesView();
RowSetIterator it = empView.createRowSetIterator(null);
empView.setEmployeeId(value);
empView.executeQuery();Question is which is which and what should I use?
JDEV 11G PS3

I use is this
DCIteratorBinding iteratorStatus = Util.getIterator("NameIterator");
operationBinding.execute();
Util is reserved in a class.
public static DCIteratorBinding getIterator(String iteratorName){
return getDCBindings().findIteratorBinding(iteratorName);
}

How to identify the bind variable peeking problem?

How to identify the bind variable peeking problem whether my db hitting or not and how to resolve it?
currently we are doing the dbms_stat of application schema's with gather auto option and i hope this option we take the histogram stats also. Is there any option to improve it and its highly transactions oltp env of 11g.

What is your exact 4 digits Oracle version ?
Bind peeking issues are supposed to be solved with adaptative cursor sharing in 11.1 and 11.2:
11.1 http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28274/optimops.htm#sthref919.
11.2 http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16638/optimops.htm#PFGRF94588
which says also:
>
Adaptive cursor sharing is enabled for the database by default and cannot be disabled. Note that adaptive cursor sharing does not apply to SQL statements containing more than 14 bind variables.

How to querie with bind variable in findMode?

Hallo,
is it possible to use a querie with bind variable in findMode? And when how is it possible to initialize the bind variable?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
bind variables can be linked from teh ADF binding to e.g. a managed bean, the sessionScope or other binding attributes via EL. So when you go into findMode and execute the query, the EL will grab the bindVariable values automatically.

How to use a bind variable in a table-validated flexfield

Hi,
I want to prepare a table-validated descriptive flexfield, which uses as source a select statement.
So, in the form "Validation table information" I use as table name the statement:
(SELECT my_procedure('test_value') FROM DUAL)
Up to here it works fine.
But instead of 'test_value' I want to use the value of a field in the form or a value of another flex (using $FLEX$ bind variables).
Please advice if it is possible to perform this in "table name" statement. I use it in "where/order by" clauses and it works fine.
Thank you.

Hi,
I have posted in the place where you did advise,
https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2560192
but they reply there that this is an EBS question, with no much relation to dev tools in general.
Please, can I continue in this place with this question?

How to pass parameter [bind variable or substitution variable] to a view?

How can I pass a parameter [bind variable or substitution variable] to a view in Oracle?
Some will tell me that this is not necessary, that I can only pass the parameter when I query the view, but I found some case where this cause performance issue. In long view where I use subquery factoring [WITH], it's necessary to pass the parameter many time through different subqueries and not only to the resulting view.
In other database (SQL Server, Access), we can pass parameters through query. I can't find how to do that in Oracle. Can some one tell me what is the approach suggest by Oracle on that subject?
Thank you in advance,

Views are a form of dynamic SQL and it is hard to predict how they will perform later.
You can't pass parameters to a view. They are not functions. The mechanism to put the values in is what you mentioned, passing the parameter when you query the view.
In other database (SQL Server, Access), we can pass parameters through query. I can't find how to do that in Oracle. Can some one tell me what is the approach suggest by Oracle on that subject? This functionality is not supported.
What I can do:
CREATE VIEW "HR"."EMP_NAME" ("FIRST_NAME", "LAST_NAME")
AS
SELECT FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME FROM EMPLOYEES;
What I want to do:
CREATE VIEW "HR"."EMP_NAME" ("FIRST_NAME", "LAST_NAME")(prmEMP_ID)
AS
SELECT FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE EMPLOYEE_ID IN (:prmEMP_ID);Include the bind value when you use the view in a SELECT. The value will be applied to the view at run-time, somthing like
CREATE VIEW "HR"."EMP_NAME_VW" ("FIRST_NAME", "LAST_NAME","EMPLOYEE_ID")(prmEMP_ID)
AS SELECT FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME FROM EMPLOYEES;
select *
from emp_name_vw
WHERE EMPLOYEE_ID IN (:prmEMP_ID);To use EMPLOYEE_ID I added it to your list of columns in the view so it can be referenced in the WHERE clause. If you don't want to see that value don't select it from the view.

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:

How to share a bind variable across multiple view objects?

Hi, Can someone tell me if it's possible to share a bind variable among multiple view objects within an application module? My web page displays data from different VOs on different regions. But all data should be controlled by the same bind variable, which appears in all queries. How can I achieve this?
Please help.

Best to state your JDev version, and technology stack (eg. ADF BC) when posting.
I can think of 2 approaches.
1) Create a parent VO based on SELECT :bindVar FROM dual, then create links between your other VOs and the parent
2) Create a AM client interface method that programatically sets the bind variable in each VO.
Can you specify your use case? This one tends to come up when discussing effective from/to dated queries.

How to substitute a bind variable for a IN condition?

Dynamically I am setting the WHERE condition for one of my blocks using SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY Built in. The condition that I am attaching has two IN conditons..
For Eg.,
contracts_tbl.status_col IN ('NEW', 'OLD', 'EXPIRED', 'OPEN')
AND contracts_tbl.id_col IN (1, 2, 3, 4)
The number of choices in the IN condition will vary depending upon the user choice in my screen. Because of this the parsed SQL state is could not be shared and multiple of these are getting created in shared pool. To avoid this I would like to use bind variables.
There are two ways I am trying to do this..
1. Generating one bind variable for each value. i.e.,
contracts_tbl.status_cod IN (:global.var1, :global.var2,
:global.var3)
Now this could result it memory error if no. of choices exceeds the avilable memory. Also its a tedious task to purge the variables after querying the block. Also because of multiple IN conditions, the chances of different set of selections are possible and then again sharing will be minimal.
2. The second method is to set the one bind variable for each IN condition. i.e.,
:GLOBAL.Var1 := '( 'NEW', 'OLD', 'EXPIRED', 'OPEN' )';
:GLOBAL.Var2 := '(1, 2, 3)';
contracts_tbl.status_col IN :GLOBAL.Var1
AND contracts_tbl.id_col IN :GLOBAL.Var2
In this case, forms is not querying as the IN condition takes the global variable value as one string and the query returns no rows though there are plenty available for each status. Also any NUMBER type condtions erroring out as the , and ( are invalid numerals.
Q: Is there anyway you can make this work? or Is there any other better method to substitute bind variables in place to avoid creating new set of statements for each query in the shared pool?
Your suggestions and pointers are higly appreciated. Please respond immediately as this is a P1.
Thanks,
-- Raam.

2. The second method is to set the one bind variable for each >>IN condition. i.e.,
:GLOBAL.Var1 := '( 'NEW', 'OLD', 'EXPIRED', 'OPEN' )';
:GLOBAL.Var2 := '(1, 2, 3)';
contracts_tbl.status_col IN :GLOBAL.Var1
AND contracts_tbl.id_col IN :GLOBAL.Var2 This method should work - not sure if you put exact syntax in or not but your first assignment would cause a problem as everywhere you want one ' mark you would have to put two so that it does not close your quoted string
Try the following syntax:
:GLOBAL.Var1 := '( ''NEW'', ''OLD'', ''EXPIRED'', ''OPEN'' )';
:GLOBAL.Var2 := '(1, 2, 3)';
SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('blk name',
default_where,
'contracts_tbl.status_col IN ' || :GLOBAL.Var1
|| ' AND contracts_tbl.id_col IN ' ||
:GLOBAL.Var2);

How to set a bind variable across the pages in a report

I want to create a portal report where data will come from a table for a date range for a week.
For e.g select event_date,last_name, event_name
from RESOURCES
where event_date between trunc(to_date(:curr_date,'DD-MON-RRRR'))
and trunc(to_date(:curr_date,'DD-MON-RRRR')+ 7)
The :curr_date is defined as a bind variable whose default value is sysdate.
Now, when we run the report for the first time, it takes the :curr_date as
sysdate and prints the report.
I have two buttons in the report output like "previous week" and "next week".
If someone presses previous week, the same report should run with curr_date
as sysdate-7 and if someone presses next week, the report should run with
curr_date as sysdate +7 and also the :curr_date sets to sysdate - 7 or sysdate + 7
depending on the button pressed.
Problem:
How do I set the value of curr_date if someone presses any of
previous week/next week.

How to set default bind variable value to task parameter value

Hi,
I 'm implementing a BPEL process with a human task, and I autogenerate the task form. I have a custom sql table that stores opinions, different processes should show different opinios, so my ADF table can only show records related to that process. A custom process number is sent to the task form as a task parameter. How do I use that value as the bind variable default and only value?
Thanks,

How to pass the bind variable value to the sql statement of the LOV

Hi,
I am using Forms 10g builder.
I have a text item which will be populated by a LOV when i press a button, but i have a bind variable in the SQL statement of the LOV. That bind variable should be replaced by a value which is derived from a radio group in the same data block.
For Ex: ( )radio1 ( )radio2
before i click on the push button, I'll select one of the radio button above,so my question is how to assign this radio group value to the bind variable in the sql statement in the LOV?
Pl any hint is appreciated!
Thanks
Reddy

The variable can be taken into account in the SELECT order contained in the Record Group used by the LOV.
e.g. Select ... From ... Where column = :block.radio_group ...Francois
