Hi,
You'll need to provide more detail about what the plsql type is exactly.
However, you should check the ODP docs for examples, and it installs complete examples on your hard drive as well which will probably show you what you need to know.
As of 11.1.6.20, ODP.NET supports user defined types. Prior to that, it also supports Associative Arrays (Index-by tables).
Hope it helps

  • How to define the application parameter 'sap.xss.BaseConfigurationID'

    Hello All,
    I am developing a webdynpro ESS custom self service application. I have completed the development of the DC. But at the end when I am creating the application for the DC, I am not able to figure it out how to define the application parameter 'sap.xss.BaseConfigurationID' for the application. I have defined remaining all the parameters as specified in the following link.

  • How to define a new parameter

    Hi,
    I want to improve a search by defining a new parameter. This parameter will replace (1,2,3,4) which is show below.
    .. documentid IN (1,2,3,4)
    Is it possible to define such parameters in APEX/SQL? if so, how can I do it? (I have tried some possible solutions but I did not get a result.)
    (Oracle 10.2, APEX 3.2)

    I suppose you are talking about a report, right? I see 2 potential problems to be worked around:
    1- how to pass the comma in an URL parameter, without making APEX understanding it as a separator for multiple parameters?
    if you're running the report from a branch in other page, just check the 'save before branching' property.
    Otherwise you will have to escape the commas, replacing it by some other character (like a '*', for example) right before submitting the page - of course you will need to add a computation to decode the conversion made (from '*' back to ',') in your report, in a Before Page style.
    You can find more sophisticated solution at http://rokitta.blogspot.com/2009/07/apex-fp-syntax-with-flexible-parameter.html
    2- how to utilize the parameter in the context of your query?
    I'd suggest to create a dynamic query, like in the tutorial http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/dynamic-report-092026.html
    The query could be something like:
    declare
    q varchar2(4000);
    begin
    q:=' select col1, ';
    q:=q||' col2, ';
    q:=q||' col3 ';
    q:=q||' from tabela ';
    q:=q||' where documentid IN ' ||:p_in_clause '; -- like '(1,2,3,4)'
    return q;
    end;

  • How to run a SQL statement which is stored inside an SQL Table

    Hello,
    If anyone please help me with the following problem I would be forever grateful
    I have an SQL statement which is stored inside a certain SQL table, I want to use that SQL statement inside my PL/SQL procedure.
    Was thinking of a simple solution of obtaining the SQL statement into an array and then execute it, yet how could I do so exactly with PL/SQL? I've only started playing around with PL/SQL in the last few days.
    Thanks in advance!
    This is how it looks like more or less:
    Displaying result for:
    SELECT TRIM(OBJ_VALU_TXT)
    FROM   OBJ_VALU_DOC
    WHERE  OBJECT_TYPE  = 'FLD'
      AND  OBJECT_CODE  = 15443
      AND  OBJ_VALU_CD  = 'ACR'
    ORDER BYDOC_SEQ_NO
    00001                                                            
    SELECT
    VALUE(MAX(RECEIPT_NO) + 1, :OUT-COMP-FACTOR)
    FROM RECEIPT
    WHERE (RECEIPT_NO BETWEEN
    :OUT-COMP-FACTOR AND :OUT-TO-NUMBER) OR
    (RECEIPT_NO > :OUT-COMP-FACTOR AND
    :OUT-TO-NUMBER = 0)

    Here's a demo of your requirement.
    create table t ( col1 varchar2(200));
    table created
    insert into t values('select * from dual');
    1 row inserted
    declare
    v_col varchar2(200);
    v_val varchar2(200);
    begin
    select col1 into v_col from t;
    execute immediate v_col into v_val;
    dbms_output.put_line(v_val);
    end;
    X
    Using into clause, you can use as many variables as required. But the basic approach reamins the same.
    But storing SQL in DB is not an efficient design.

  • How to define the Index on the column which is define in view (9i)

    hi all,
    I have one view which is based on to tables say 'customers' and 'vendors'
    view definition is like:
    create or replace view customer_vendor as
    select customer_name, 'Customer' type from customers
    union all
    select vendor_name, 'Vendor' type form vendors;
    my problem is that how i can define index on 'type' column if i used in where clause when i query the view.
    Regards
    s

    An index is a pointer. A pointer to a data place.
    Data result of a view aren't stored.
    So, how an index may work against a view ?
    SQL> create index idx1 on v1(type);
    create index idx1 on v1(type)
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-01702: a view is not appropriate hereThink about mview instead of view, maybe that can help. Data result of mview are stored somewhere in database, so you are allowed to create an index against mview, like for table.
    Anyway, if you want 'Customer', why not request onto customers table ?

  • How to load a comma seprated text file which contain address in to sql server table using ssis package

    Hi,
    I want to load a file which is comma separated and contain address .Problem is that address its self comma seprated so how do I differenciate whether comma used for column seprator or it used in address.
    for eg.
    One person having address like
    "c/o AB corp,156 cross lane,USA"
    Thanks.....

    Hi SR_MCTS,
    Based on your description, you want to distinguish a comma is used for column separator or used in address column in a text file, then load the data from the text file to SQL Server table.
    As per my understanding, if you can replace the comma column separator to another delimiter like semicolon (;), just do it. Then we can select Semicolon {;} as Column delimiter for the Flat File Connection Manager. Or ensure all columns are enclosed in double
    quotes ("). Then we can set the double quotes (") as Text qualifier for the Flat File Connection Manager, and the commas will be loaded as part of the string fields.
    If you can't have that done, because computers don't know the context of the data, you would have to come up with some kind of rules that decides when a comma represents a delimiter, and when it is just part of the text. I think a custom script component
    would be necessary to pre-process the data, identify where a comma is part of an address, and then treat that as one field.

  • How to use the out parameter of a transformation

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement where I need to move all the transformations from process flows to map.SO for each transformation I need to have 1 map which calls this transformation.I have 1 transformation which has both input and output parameter.If I use this transformation in mapping then how to use the out parameter of thsi transformation.This out parameter needs to beused in other mappings.Can soemone please help me.
    Thansk in advance

    Hi,
    I'm not quite sure what you are trying to do.
    What works: Connect the outgroup of a pre- or post-mapping process operator to the mapping output parameter operator..
    What does not work: Connect the outgroup of an operator that can return more than one row (e.g. table operator, filter, joiner ,...) to the mapping output parameter operator. The mapping output parameter just returns "one row", like a pl/sql function call.
    You cannot pass a "data stream" from one mapping to another. Maybe the pluggable mappings is what you are looking for.

    Hi,
    The AP invoice approval used AME rules for finding the approver. You can base you AME rules on virutally anything.
    In this particular case, you can base your AME rules on one of the followings:
    1. If any of the Distribution Accounts contain Fixed Assets natural account
    2. You can define a separate document category which should be used with invoices for FA Purchase and use the category in AME rules to find approver
    3. You can have a DFF at the Invoice Header level to indicate that this is a fixed asset purchase invoice and have this DFF to be used in AME rules.

  • How to check for null value of output parameter?

    Hi guys, I get a test procedure with 2 output parameters and do nothing:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY p_parameters_test AS
      PROCEDURE p_null_output_basetype(p1 OUT NUMBER,p2 OUT VARCHAR2)
      AS
      BEGIN
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('DO NOTHING');
      END p_null_output_basetype;
    END;And I have below C# code:
    cmd.CommandText = "p_parameters_test.p_null_output_basetype";
    OracleParameter p1 = new OracleParameter("p1", OracleDbType.Decimal, System.Data.ParameterDirection.Output);
    OracleParameter p2 = new OracleParameter("p2", OracleDbType.Varchar2, System.Data.ParameterDirection.Output);
    cmd.Parameters.Add(p1);
    cmd.Parameters.Add(p2);
    try
        conn.Open();
        cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
        if (p1.Value==null)
            Console.WriteLine("p1.Value==null");
        else if (Convert.IsDBNull(p1.Value))
            Console.WriteLine("Convert.IsDBNull(p1.Value)");
        else
            Console.WriteLine("p1 else "+p1.Value);
        if (p2.Value==null)

        else
            Console.WriteLine("p2 else "+p2.Value);
        Console.WriteLine("finished");
    catch......The output of it is:
    p1 else null
    p2 else null
    Does anyone have any idea why it always goes to the 'else' of the condition-branching, and how can I check if the output parameter is null?
    Thanks in advance.

    Morven... I ran into similar problems. Maybe you've found a solution of your own by now, but here's what I've learned...
    The Value property of output parameters, like p1 and p2 in your code, actually varies, according to (I think) the OracleDbType of the parameter. You've got OracleDbType.Decimal for p1 and OracleDbType.Varchar2 for p2. These look about right, since they match the parameter types in your actual stored procedure.
    After cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() executes, the respective Value properties of p1 and p2 are actually of different types. For p1, it's going to be "OracleDecimal" and for p2 it's "OracleString". Keep in miind that these are the types of the Value property of the OracleParameter objects, not the OracleParameter objects themselves.
    OracleDecimal and OracleString (and some other types like OracleDate, etc.) have an "IsNull" property you can use if you cast the Value property to its runtime type...
    if ((OracleDecimal)cmd.Parameters["p1"].Value).IsNull) { …do something… }
    else { …do something else… }
    Or maybe something like this...
    Decimal p1val = ((OracleDecimal)cmd.Parameters["p1"].Value).IsNull ? 0 : ((OracleDecimal)cmd.Parameters["AVG_SALARY"].Value).Value;
    I'll admit that expressions like this: ((OracleDecimal)cmd.Parameters["AVG_SALARY"].Value).Value look a little weird. But the "Value" of the "OracleDecimal" property is a regular .NET decimal type (System.Decimal). So, it's a "Value" of the "Value" property of the OracleParameter class.
    Even when the stored procedure returns a null, the Value property is still populated. In the case of p1, it's populated with an OracleDecimal object (actually a struct) where IsNull is true. That's why "p1.Value==null" tests false.
    From what I can see, OracleDecimal, OracleString, etc. will never be typed as DbNull, or DBNull.Value. So, that would be why Convert.IsDBNull(p1.Value)) always returns false. btw, it appears that these are Value types. That would suggest that coding something like like this, should be avoided…
    OracleString p2val = ((OracleString)cmd.Parameters["p2"].Value;
    if (p2val.IsNull) { …do something… }
    else { …do something else… }
    By assigning the value to another variable, you’d be actually creating an entire copy of the OracleString structure, which is pointless.
    I hope that helps

  • How to allow multiple output parameters in a user-defined service operation???

    I have creating a self-defined service operation “LDAPAddUser” to connect to LDAP server to create user accounts. I want to get 2 output parameters after executing the operation. One is the result (Boolean data type) and one is the error message (String data type). However, since Java only support one return value in a method, it seems that only one output parameter can be returned. May I have the suggestion so that multiple parameters can be supported in this case? Here is the extracted code
    In Java program,
    public Boolean addUser(String url, String aName)
    In file "component.xml",
         <operation name="addUser" method="addUser" orchestrateable="true" anonymous-access="true">
      <hint>Add a new user</hint>
         <input-parameter name="url" type="java.lang.String" required="true" title="LDAP URL">
         </input-parameter>
              <input-parameter name="aName" type="java.lang.String" required="true" title="Admin Login Name">
         </input-parameter>
              <output-parameter name="Result" title="Result" type="java.lang.Boolean">
              </output-parameter>
    Besides the boolean return value, I want to get another return value (string data type). Any suggestion ?

    I've returned multiple values to LiveCycle by using a complex object as an intermediatory.
    For example if I need to return two strings (firstName and lastName), I'll first build a single class (name) with two string attributes (private String firstName; private String LastName) and add getters and setters to my "name" class for each.  My service class method will return an object of type "name".
    for example  public name mymethod(String GUID, String username, String password).......
    Then in the component.xml you can return the two strings as long as you use the binding type "Bean":
    <output-parameter name="firstName" title="First Name" binding-type="Bean" property="firstName">
                        </output-parameter>
    <output-parameter name="lastName" title="Last Name" binding-type="Bean" property="lastName">
                         </output-parameter>

  • How to call a Stored Procedure with a REF CURSOR output parameter

    I am looking forward an example that call a stored function/procedure with a REF CURSOR output parameter and get the result.
    In other words, I have a stored function/procedure that execute a SELECT statement using the OCI library and then it could get the values of each column and each row.
    I put a code snippet, it have only the main thing to call a simple stored procedure and print the name of each column of the cursor, but I couldn´t to print out the values in the table that call the stored procedure.
    I understand that the next step, it is to call a OCIStmtFetch.
    How to associate the cursor with the OCIStmtFetch?
    If you need more information, only tell me.

    Hi Mark,
    Thanks for your recommendations.
    I change the code with OCIDefineByPos, one for each parameter from cursor and then use the OCIStmtFetch.
    I don´t receive a error when call OCIDefineByPos, but when I call OCIStmtFetch receive a -1 error number.
    What is wrong with the code?
    The script is the same.
    I need your help!
    Best Regards!
