How to get Dynamic data file in SQL*Loader?

Hi all,
I have a requirement that needs to import data everyday using background process. I have created a control file with the fixed datafile name and calling it through java. It is working fine.
The thing is data file name is not constant, it changes everyday (I mean the file name format is YearMonthDate_Clients.cvs). But the the data file location is fixed location.
How can I get the data file name dynamically?
Can someone has the answer?
Thanks in advance,
Kalyogi

I'm not a JAVA developer, but I've used this before
File folder = new File("c:/");
    File[] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles();
    for (int i = 0; i < listOfFiles.length; i++) {
      if (listOfFiles.isFile()) {
--Here the filename is printed, but I'm sure you can pass this to whatever/however you are invoking SqlLdr
System.out.println("File " + listOfFiles[i].getName());

New Line in data file for sql loader

Hi all,
I have a requirement to load a data file in which some of the rows are in new line as given in following example. If i put a '\n' character in control file, then it will load only those records which have newline in them ignoring non new line ones. please have a look at control fileand provide a solution to it :-
32 grand street ~NY~NY
42 riverdrive,
apt 1B ~PL~TX
Richardson road
apt 32~ SF ~CA
As you see there are newline characters in record 2 and 3, right now my control file looks like this -
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'example.txt' "STR '\r\n'"
INTO TABLE "temp_table"
INSERT
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '~'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(ADDRESS1,
CITY,
STATE)
If i remove "STR '\r\n'" , then the data gets loaded into different rows like the third record looks like this -
ADDRESS                         CITY                     STATE
Richardson road null null
apt 32 SF CA
Please help.

Your requirement is very unclear.
Is this your INPUT ?
--record 1
32 grand street ~NY~NY
--record 2
42 riverdrive, --"NL"
apt 1B ~PL~TX
--record 3
Richardson road --"NL"
apt 32~ SF ~CAIs this your OUTPUT?
ADDRESS      CITY STATE
32 grand street NY   NY
42 riverdrive,     null null
apt 1B          PL   TX
Richardson road null null
apt 32           SF   CAAre you using Linux or Windows platform?
You should have only one record terminator character.
*\r\n* is Windows The End of Line character (The Carriage Return + The Line Feed).
"STR '\r\n'" = "str X'0D0A'"
If there is no data after \r\n, columns will be null.

In order to use Unflatten from string you first need to Flatten it
before writing it. Also depending on the database driver, the returned
data may actually not be binary but Hexadecimal encoded ASCII which you
would first have to decode to binray.

Depend on year system date.
Thank you.

Stuart,How are you storing OnSaleDate. If you are using OnSaleDate as an attribute dimension then you can write a Custom Defined Function to either:1- query your system for the current date and return the number of seconds that have elapsed since 1/1/1970. This is by definition the begining of the Epoch and how Essbase treats Attribute Dimensions of the Date type.public static long getDateInSeconds() { Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(); return cal.getTime().getTime()/1000;}2- Write a Custom Defined Function that will accept the OnSaleDate and return the number of days sincepublic static double daysSince(double myDate) { return (getDateInSeconds()-myDate )/86400;}

How to get information from desktops into SQL?

Hello Everyone,
I could use some help with an idea that I have been working on. I basically am looking for a way to capture information from desktops and get that data into a SQL database. Could anyone give me any links, kb articles, etc on how I can go about doing this?
Any help would be very appreciated

Powershell is the tool for you. If you could please move this post to powershell; you should get better response. I almost certain that there are already some powershell scripts that does this, or at least will give you a report or a excel\csv file
with this information.
once you have that info you import that data into sql and sql server agent jobs you can automate.
Below are some of the resources :

How do I move data files from old iPhone? Specifically, the password files for the App mSecure from my old iPhone 3Gs to iPhone 4S?

How do I move data files for mSecure (a password saver app) from old iPhone 3GS to new iPhone 4S?

That article is about using your iPod as an external hard drive, to move files from one computer to another computer. It is not related to your question.
You can't use iTunes to move song files from iPod to computer, except for songs you purchased from the iTunes Store (and you can also re-download purchases). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can move song files from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
Once the song files are on your current computer, add them to that computer's iTunes library by dragging the files (or folder containing the files) to the iTunes window. After confirming everything is there (and fixing the data issue you mentioned) you can sync the iPod. You may want to do a Restore on the iPod, if it might have a data corruption issue, which will erase the iPod's hard drive, re-install the latest software, and set it to defautl settings.

Use IW format - it will make solution NLS independent. And all you need is truncate 7<sup>th</sup> day of each month using IW:
select sysdate current_date,
        trunc(trunc(sysdate,'mm') + 6,'iw') first_monday_the_month
from dual
CURRENT_D FIRST_MON
08-MAR-13 04-MAR-13

            connect by level <= 12

How to get javabean data in Servlets.( JavaBean -- Servlet(Controller)

how to get javabean data in Servlets.
1) I am using name ,password in Jsp(View )
2) when I submit this Bean will be called and Setter methods will be called .
3) In ServletController (controller) I want to get data of javabean.
In this I have to do validation of user.
I want to pass the javabean obj as like -->
request.getAttribute("beanObj");
My intention is to get all the poperties in javabean by passing bean id
or beanobj ,
Is there any way to get all the data using bean id or beanObj.
Plz Reply,

Now in the Servlet we can get the same bean by this code:
PageContext pageContext = JspFactoryImpl.getDefaultFactory().getPageContext(this, request, response, null, true, 8192, true);
UserBean userbean = (UserBean)pageContext.getAttribute("userbean", PageContext.SESSION_SCOPE);
String userid = userbean.getUsername();
For this code to work it is needed to import 2 files:
import org.apache.jasper.runtime.JspFactoryImpl;
import javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext;
The JspFactoryImpl is in jasper-runtime.jar file provided in tomcat dir.It seems to me that you are exactly knowing what you are doing :-(
You can get a Bean stored in a Session by
request.getSession().getAttribute("userbean");
In the login.jsp page for example we have the code
<jsp:useBean id="userbean" scope="session"class="com.newproj.UserBean" />
<jsp:setProperty name="userbean" property="*" />the jsp:setProperty is not called when you click on the submit button
if fills the bean with the request values from the previous request.

How to get the date of the last transaction in a mounted standby database?

Hello,
Could you tell me how to get the date of the last transaction recorded in a MOUNTED standby database?
The following query doesn't work...because the database is not open...
select scn_to_timestamp(current_scn) from v$database;
Thanks

Hi,
You should be able to run the following command in mounted mode on standby database.
select current_scn from v$database;
then run the following to convert it to timestamp.
select scn_to_timestamp(99999999) from dual; *<-- Replace here the SCN value you got above. This needs to be run on the primary database due to standby database in mount mode.*
Alternatively you can also check at the alert.log file to find the last scn which has been applied.

Data Integrator has no read permissions to get the data file using FTP

Hi,
I wonder if you could help.
We have installed the data integrator and are using FTP to get the data file from the SAP server to the DI server. The files are created by the SAP admin user with permissions 660. The FTP user is not in the sapsys group so cannot read the files.
Has anyone come accross this problem and how did you solve it?
Many thanks.

How to generate dynamic param file

Hi, Can anyone please tell me how to generate dynamic parameter file from a table.

Hi All, I have a scenario to implement.Need urgent help. I have relational source which has below fields. ID,Account,AccountType,Balance1,1001,GL,46567.901,1002,SL,56889.971,1003,Equity,45543.9081,1004,GL,89.541,1005,SL,-56889.971,1006,Equity,-45543.9081,1007,SL,-42777.45 Here my first requiremnt is to check if the balance value for entire file is 0 and if balance amount for each AccoutType is 0 , if both condtionn satifies the flow will go , else load will fail. I tried in below approach. SQ >> Expression >> Aggregator In aggregaor i have first calculated sum(balance) for entire file by group by on ID column in an aggregator , and keep actual data in expression transformation. Then i took an expression to connect actual data with the sum(balance) , since i need to perform further calculation.I tried connecting expression and aggregator , but it is not allowing me to connect the posrts. And if i am using a joiner , then wrong data is loading to target. It is joining each result of aggregator with actual ports in expression. I am not sure how to handle this scenario, so that we can just calculate sum of entire file and sum on basis of account type , is both sum are 0 then load the target , else fail.

How do I transfer data files (word, Quickbooks, pdf, etc.) to the ipad?

How do I transfer data files (word, Quickbooks, pdf, etc.) to the ipad for safe store and possible reading and manipulation of some key files (word and Pdf)?

You first need an app, or apps, that are capable of reading/storing, and possibly editting them - without the app(s) there is nowhere to copy them to. As to how you then get the files onto the iPad depends upon the app(s) that you are using : iBooks (free app which can store/read PDFs) is via iTunes and the Books section of your computer's iTunes library. Other apps can use the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab on your computer's iTunes, some apps have wifi capability so that you can copy to/from them via your wifi network, and you may also be able to transfer email attachments into the app.

How to find Installation Date for each SQL installation

I need a basic info. How to find installation date of each SQL instance (My environment running with multiple standalone/cluster instances)?
So, I need a query to find installation date easily (I don't want to check it in registry by manual). Thanks in advance...

Hi Balmukund
This is the same answer that (1) Prashanth posted
from the start, letter on (2) Stan posted
this again with the same link, and now for the third time, (3) you posted it with the same link :-)
* This answer is correct for specific instance.
The OP asked a solution for several instances. Therefore he should execute this on each instance. As I mentioned he can do it dynamically on all instances, for example using powershell (basic logic is, first find all instances and than post this query in a
loop).
