How to pass rowtype argument to a function from select statement?

Hi all!
I have function that takes mytable%rowtype as in parameter. can I pass entire row of mytable to the function from select statement? kind of
select myfunction(mytable.*) from mytable where ....
Thanks in advance

The function can be used in a SQL statement only if it accepts SQL types and returns SQL type. %ROWTYPE being PL/SQL construct and not a SQL datatype, can not be used in this context.

  • How to find the number of fetched lines from select statement

    Hi Experts,
    Can you tell me how to find the number of fetched lines from select statements..
    and one more thing is can you tell me how to check the written select statement or written statement is correct or not????
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Look for the system field SY_TABIX. That will contain the number of records which have been put into an internal table through a select statement.
    For ex:
    data: itab type mara occurs 0 with header line.
    Select * from mara into table itab.
    Write: Sy-tabix.
    This will give you the number of entries that has been selected.
    I am not sure what you mean by the second question. If you can let me know what you need then we might have a solution.
    Hope this helps,

  • How to pass an array to a function from a SELECT statement

    Hi all. I have a problem with passing an array to a function directly from a SELECT statement.
    Here is what I want. If I have a function
    function AAA(arrayVar <ArrayType>) return number;
    I want to be able to call this function this way
    select AAA((2,3,4))
    from dual
    or this way
    select AAA((10,12))
    from dual
    In other words I want to be able to pass an arbitrary number of numbers to the function. And I want this to work in a SELECT statement.
    Does anyone have any ideas how to implement this? What <ArrayType> should I use?(I've read about VARRAY, nested tables in the Oracle documentation but as far as I've understood these array types are meant to be used within PL/SQL blocks).
    I found only this http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:208012348074 through Google but it didn't help me.
    Thank you in advance.

    > What <ArrayType> should I use?
    SQL data types - as 3360 showed above. You cannot use PL/SQL structures and user types in the SQL Engine.
    You can however use all SQL structures and types in PL/SQL.
    Arrays in SQL is created as collection type - basic o-o. The collection type (or class) serve as a container for instantiated objects or scalar type.

  • How to pass an argument to a standalone java class in JDeveloper

    To the experienced:
    In JDeveloper when you write a java class with a main() method that takes no argument, you just right click the java file and select Run to run the program. But suppose the main() method takes arguments, how do you pass your arguments to the program? This is especially a problem as I use the studio version of JDeveloper (Versions 10.1.3.4 and 11.1.1.3) that each uses the version of JDK bundled with it, rather than the JDK (which is yet another different version) installed at the OS level of the PC.
    Many thanks for your help!
    Newman

    Hi, Puthanampatti,
    Suppose a java class has a main() method:
    <pre>
    public class FormatTerm {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    String year = args[0];
    String semester = args[1];
    </pre>
    What I want to know is how to pass the arguments when invoking FormatTerm within JDeveloper (i.e., without going out of JDeveloper to invoke FormatTerm on a command line in DOS). I would appreciate it very much if you know how to do that in JDeveloper 11g (I use Version 11.1.1.3) and could help me out.
    Thank you very much for your help!

  • How to pass runtime parameters to MySQL Query from xMII server

    Please can anybody help in How to pass runtime parameters to Orcle Query from xMII server

    The answer is the same as for your other thread.  The mechanism is the same regardless of the end database.  The SQL  syntax will be different for each database vendor depending upon which functions you are invoking.  The main areas of difference between SQL Server, Oracle, DB2, etc. deal with dates (times also) and strings, but there are others as well.

    my problem here is
    i have 15 columns
    i am executing a query based on the values of the column(column name)  in the target page
    1)here i am passing(all) the column values to the next page-but  i want to pass only one column values(column name)
    when i click on any cell of that  column

  • Using java function in select statement

    Hi,
    I am trying to use java function in select statement.
    public class ClassA{
         private static String MyConst = "foo";
         public static String functionA(){
              return MyConst;
    in my query I have:
    select
         ClassA.functionA() AS id,
         groupId AS newID,
    from
         myChannel[now]
    ClassA is part of the application (no need to import).
    I get and error of Invalid Expression on ClassA.functionA().
    I also tried to declare the function in the processor element:
    <wlevs:processor id="proc">
         <wlevs:function function-name="A" exec-methode="functionA">
              <bean class="mtPackage.ClassA"/>
         </wlevs:function>
    <wlevs:processor>
    but then I get a different error in the processor XML file:  "An InvocationTargetException was encoutered while attemting to register the user defind function A. The message was null"
    What am I missing here?

    Hi,
    From the above description, you have tried two manners to call method functionA() in the user defined  class ClassA. One uses java cartridge manner directly and the other try to use user defined function manner.
    For the java cartridge manner, the following CQL query should work if the ClassA is really included in the OEP app. I have done similar test before, it works.
    select
         ClassA.functionA() AS id,
         groupId AS newID,
    from
         myChannel[now]
    For user defined function manner, I think two things you need to change:
    1. Need to declare the function in the EPN assembly file(under META-INF/spring/), not component configuration file(under META-INF/wlevs/). The following is an example:
    <wlevs:processor id="proc">
         <wlevs:function function-name="A" exec-methode="functionA">
              <bean class="mtPackage.ClassA"/>
         </wlevs:function>
    </wlevs:processor>
    2. Call the user defined function in the CQL query in the component configuration file under processor. For example:
    select A() from myChannel

    Thanks
    Ram.

    Hi,
    Sorry, you can't call a locally defined function in a SQL statement, even if that SQL statement is in a PL/SQL block where the function is in scope.
    This applies to packages, also. If a function is not declared in the package spec, but only in the package body, then you can't call it from SQL statements in the package body.
    Why do you want a locally defined function? Why not a function defined outside the procedure?

  • Is it possible to pass an argument to the function triggered by an event handler?

    Hello All,
    Trying to migrate my way of thinking from AS2 to CS4/AS3.
    Ok, I have 2 buttons on the stage. Each button does almost
    the same thing, so I want to create a single function, and each
    button calls that same function (we'll name that function
    "Navigate")... however, the function will need to end up doing
    something different dependant on which button was clicked.
    So, previously, in AS2, I would've added some code onto the
    buttons themselves with on(release) methods (see CODE EXAMPLE 1)
    So, each button effectively calls the Navigate function, and
    passes a different frame label to the function.
    Now, I'm trying to recreate this functionality in AS3. As you
    all know, on(release) has been done away with (still don't know
    why), but we now have to use event handlers, so I'm trying to
    figure out a way to pass a different frame label argument to the
    Navigate function. Currently I can achieve that by using a switch
    statement to test which button was clicked, and act accordingly
    (see CODE EXAMPLE 2).
    In this over-simplified example, this works fine, but in the
    real world I'm going to have more than 2 buttons, and the Navigate
    function would probably be much more complicated...
    So, I would like to be able to pass an argument(s) (like in
    the AS2 example) to the Navigate function... perhaps in the
    addEventListener() method? I tried this, but got compiler errors
    (see CODE EXAMPLE 3):
    The Million Dollar Question:
    Is it possible to dynamically pass/change an argument(s) to a
    function which is triggered by an event listener? (Or is the event
    that triggered the function the only argument you can have?)
    If this isn't possible, I'd greatly like to hear how you
    folks would handle this (other than having a switch statement with
    12 cases in it)???

    I've found a couple solutions that I'll post below for
    prosperity...
    You could create a Dictionary keyed by the prospective event
    targets and store any information in there you want associated with
    them. Then the navigate function can check that dictionary to get
    it's parameters:
    // Code //
    Button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Navigate, false,
    0, true);
    Button2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Navigate, false,
    0, true);
    var buttonArgs:Dictionary = new Dictionary();
    buttonArgs[Button1] = "FrameLabel1";
    buttonArgs[Button2] = "FrameLabel2";
    function Navigate(e:MouseEvent):void{
    gotoAndStop(buttonArgs[e.target]);
    This in my eyes, is about the same amount of work as writing
    a long switch statement, but a little more elegant I suppose.
    I had a little trouble understanding the next solution,
    because I didn't quite understand an important piece of information
    about event listeners. The addEventListener () requires a Function
    as the 2nd argument passed to it.
    It didn't quite click until someone pointed it out to me:
    Navigate is a Function...
    Navigate("FrameLabel1") is a Function
    call...
    So by writing just
    Navigate, I'm not actually calling the function at the time
    of the addEventListener call, I'm just supplying the event listener
    with a reference to the name of the function. Then, when the
    listener is triggered, the listener will call (and pass a
    MouseEvent argument to) the Navigate function.
    Conversely, by writing
    Navigate("FrameLabel1") as the 2nd argument, the event
    listener trys to execute the Navigate function at the time the
    addEventListener is instantiated. And, since, in this example, the
    Navigate function returned as ":void" a compile error would occur
    because as I stated, an event listener requires a Function data
    type as the 2nd argument. This would basically be like writing
    addEventListener(MouseEvent.Click,
    void, false, 0, true)
    However, there is a way around this... basically, instead of
    defining the Navigate function as returning a void data type, you
    define it as returning a Function data type, and then nest another
    function (which actually contains the actions you want to perform)
    inside of it.
    Button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
    Navigate("FrameLabel1"), false, 0, true);
    Button2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
    Navigate("FrameLabel2"), false, 0, true);
    function Navigate(myLabel:String):Function{
    return function(evt:MouseEvent):void{
    gotoAndStop(myLabel);
