How to convert oracle BLOB to String
Hi,
I am working on an GIS project using Oracle database which stores the spatial data. When I read the polygon points data which is saved as BLOB type in database table and convert the BLOB to byte[], there is no problem. However when the data is converted to Character, those characters are not recognized something like this:
�����������?�����?���w�����������������!����?o����s��8��n�����H��?
������������������ �?&�?�����|��?��������?���������������L�?
This is the method I used to convert BLOB to String below:
-----mapb is the BLOB instance.
byte[] images = mapb.getBytes(1,(int)mapb.length());
String newstring = new String(images);
Is that decoding problem?
Can somebody help me for this problem?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Thanks for reply,
Actually the data is ESRI spatial data saved in ORACLE database.
the BLOB is not a column, it is part of column of st_geometry.
I looked at some docs in ESRI, they save points which is the last part of st_geometry field with BLOB type. I use the jdbc to get the geometry data and use STRUCT and Datum class to get all members of the st_geometry data. There are 14 members in the field, I can cast most of them into String through Datum instance, but the object #14 is BLOB, will not allow me cast it to String directly, so I use byte[] and cast it though new String().
some of the lines here:
STRUCT st = (oracle.sql.STRUCT) rs.getObject("shape");
Datum[] dtms = st.getOracleAttributes();
BLOB mapb = null;
for (int i=0;i<dtms.length;i++){
if (!(dtms[i] == null)){
if (i==13){
mapb = (BLOB)dtms;
} else {
log.info("data" + i + "=" + dtms[i].stringValue());
byte[] images = mapb.getBytes(1,(int)mapb.length());
String newstring = new String(images);
Thanks again for your reply.

How to convert oracle timestamp to java timestamp
Hi,
I need to convert oracle timestamp that i got from oracle database to java timestamp.I tried to use getTimestamp() to get timestamp value from oracle, but am getting NumberFormatException.
Could any of suggest how to convert oracle timestamp to java timestamp.Thanks jverd ,
then my code will be like:
String oracleTS="11-MAR-05 11.19.20.625 AM";
// am looking for yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss format
SimpleDateFormat sdf=new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd
HH:mm:ss");
Timestamp javaTimestamp=Timestamp.valueOf(oracleTS);
System.out.println("javaTimestamp----->>
"+javaTimestamp);
ving java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input
string: "MAR"Well, the SimpleDateFormat has to actually match the format you're trying to parse, for one thing. Then you have to actually USE the SDF, which you didn't.
You really haven't made it clear what you're trying to do, and it doesn't appear that you bothered to study the links I provided.
DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yy HH.mm.ss.SSS aa");
Date date = df.parse(oracleTS);
Timestamp ts = new Timestamp(date.getTime()); -
How to convert Oracle reports previewer output into delimited file.
How to convert Oracle reports previewer output into delimited file if the report has more than 1000 pages.
I tried with previewer option File --> Generate to file --> Delimited file, but the report engine is crashing.Not generating .TXT file.
I observed that this option is not working for more than 400 pages.
I am using Oracle reports 6i version.
Plz suggest me to generate .TXT file from Report previewer.You can specify a delimiter (a character or string of characters) to separate the data (boilerplate or field objects) in your report output in either of the following ways:
On the command line using the DELIMITER keyword.
In the Delimited Output dialog box or DelimitedData Output dialog box (displayed with File > Generate to File > Delimited or File > Generate to File > DelimitedData) in Reports Builder.

user591884There is no automatic way to do this in JDeveloper. I know there are some Oracle Partners offering forms to java conversion, I don't know how much of their tools are automated and done with JDeveloper. With JDeveloper+ADF you basically rewriting the Forms application from scratch (and using ADF is helpful during this process).

How to convert from military time (string) to regular time?
How to convert from military time (string) to regular time?
First of all I need to let you know I'm very new to Crystal Reports, so I apologize and will need detailed instructions if possible.
I have created a Crystal Report pulling information from the received time field. On the report, the time is showing in military time (ex. 16:00:00).
How can I convert this time to normal time (ex. 4:00:00)
Since the field is a 'String' field and not a 'Time' field, I do not have the option of changing it under the field properties.
I hope someone can help with this.
Thank you in advance.As my fields were date only and not datetime, I ended up using the following,
If IsDate({CallLog.EmailRecdDate}) Then
CDate({CallLog.EmailRecdDate})
Else
CDate(0,0,0)
You answer lead me in the right direction.
I'm still having an issue with the 'Else' statment returning 12:00:00 because of the CDate(0,0,0), but I'm not sure what else I can use to return a blank space on the report. Any ideas?
Thanks again! -
How to convert oracle DDL to mysql DDL
Dear friends,
I have Oracle 9.2.0 DDL, (not complexity, no BLOB or CLOB data type, but have foreign key constrains), I want to convert it to mysql DDL, so I can create mysql database using this DDL. could someone give a hint of how to convert it? thank you very much in advance!
besides, could some one tell me if I can get oracle 9.2.0 DDL through JDBC? how?
thanks again!Hi Sammy,
I'm not sure what you're looking for when you say you'd like to retrieve Oracle DDL. Would you like to know the table definitions (e.g., table names with associated column names and types)? I think java.sql.DatabaseMetaData might be able to help you out if that's what you mean.
I usually just go into SQL*Plus and ask Oracle to describe the tables I need. But perhaps I'm not understanding you.
Yes, I think it's best combine XDoclet and Hibernate. I've been adding XDoclet javadoc tags to my Java classes. There's an Ant task that generates the *.hbm.xml descriptor files for all my classes. There's another Ant task that will take those descriptors and put out the DLL for you. You can change from Oracle to MySQL just by changing the hibernate.properties file.
I agree - Hibernate is terrific stuff. I hope it can help you. Sincerely, MOD -

Any suggestion, tutorial site would be appreciated?
Thx!something like this will convert string to byte[]
e.g.
you want to convert following.
656667 => ABC
String toConvert = "656667";
byte[] returnVal = String2byteArr (toConvert );
String FinalStr = new String(returnVal);
public static byte[] String2byteArr(String Result)
byte[] byteRet = new byte[Result.length()/2];
int k=0;
for (int j=0; j<(Result.length()); j+=2)
try
Integer I = new Integer (0);
I = I.decode ("0x"+Result.substring(j, j+2));
int i = I.intValue ();
if (i > 127)
i = i - 256;
byteRet[k++] = new Integer(i).byteValue();
catch(Exception e)
System.err.println(e);
return byteRet;
}// String2byteArr
Hope this will help you, So that i can get 3$ (:-)

How to convert xslt file into string
i'm writting a java program to use xslt to transform the xml file. i'm encountering the problem when i try to convert the xslt file into string. i've defined my utility class called 'XmlUtil' to carry out the operation of transform xml file through xslt. but in my main java program i need to convert both xml and xslt file into a string in order to input them in my function argument. my function argument is as follows:
String htmlString = XmlUtil.applyXsltString(xmlContent, xsltString);

}I don't understand why you need load the XML and XLS files into a String. A Transformer can be constructed from a Source and there is a StreamSouce which can be constructed from an InputStream. The transform() method can take a Source as input and can produce a Result. There is no need to go near a String representation of either the input.

How to convert oracle 9i database to mysql using JSP?
Dear friends,
I want to convert oracle 9i database to mysql using JSP technology. Does there anyone who have a hint or some web links about this task? I searched the internet and found all of them are not free and no source code. In fact, what I want to do is really simple, I just want to first, reading the oracle database table structure information and then create the exactly same table in mysql, and then copying all the data in oracle database table to mysql table. But I don�t know how to retrieve the oracle table structure using JDBC. And also I want to retrieve all the tables in the oracle database, so I can choose from them to convert to mysql. It seems that the structure in oracle usually have the tablespace information, I don�t know if I can create database in mysql using this tablespace information. And I don�t know where I can find the information about the functions in JDBC? For example, how to retrieve the table structure? Once I retrieve the table structure and create the exactly same table structure in mysql, then I can fetch all the data in oracle table to mysql table.
Any hint will be great appreciated!
Merry Christmas and Happy new year!
SammyHi, beattris and rtg54,
thank you very much for your great help!
beattris, do you know if there is any such kind of tool free? I am a student and don't want to do commercial product, as you see, my work is very simple, in fact, just as you said, the most important of all is how to get the database structure from oracle schema? do you have any idea about this? or do you know any tool that is open source? so I can learn from it.
rtg54, I just want to convert the database from oracle to mysql, after that, I can use mysql database as storage instead of expensive oracle database. the problem is that I have some data stored in oracle database and the application is built on oracle, after the convertion, I can use mysql to provide data to jsp or servlet application. I will great appreciate if you can contact with mysql about this problem because I don't know how to contact with them.
thanks again and happy new year!
Sammy
