How to Spool the Output of a Cursor to a Flat File?

I have a SQL script that contains a cursor in it. I'm having trouble with spooling the output of the cursor. Does anyone know of a way to do this?

Please post the error or problem that you are facing. SQL Script itself would be handy.

How to spool the output of mod pl/sql ?

I am trying to generate a HTML (will be static after I generate) web page from Oracle PL/SQL package. Moment I execute the package/procedure call, it should generate a HTML file and we will be publishing the file over the web.
create or replace procedure display_hello
IS
begin
htp.htmlOpen;
htp.print('Hello World');
htp.htmlClose;
end display_hello;
If I execute the above procedure using PL/SQL Developer, I am able to see the output in the neat HTML fashion. I would like to spool the HTML file used to display that and store it in a file so that i can publish it.
Any thoughts ?

Because we dont want to spoil the performance. Assume our data is not going to change frequently. Say its going to change only once in three days. I dont want people to query the data from the database each time when they open the page. I would like them to just use the static content which i have generated. But the moment the data in my tables are going to get changed, I would run a process and regenerate the page. Not a bad idea ?You can use page caching in mod_psql - have not used it myself, but recall discussions on comp.databases.oracle.server some years ago.
APEX also sports a cache feature - this is also worthwhile investigating.
What is a horrible idea though IMO, is to try and roll your own caching - but having PL/SQL code writing physical files to disk for the web server to serve up and at other times creating and streaming content dynamically from PL/SQL code.
You also need to ask yourself about the actual benefits you will get from caching - and whether that is worthwhile the saving in resources.
PL/SQL and SQL can be very fast.. with minimal overheads. And this is typically the code that you want to deploy for a web server (as web users expect fast response - a web page should be generated in around 2 secs). In which case it does not matter whether PL/SQL dynamically creates the web page or whether it is provided from a cache - where there is also the overheads of cache logic to consider.

Here's some info on working with plists:

They can be edited with any text editor. Xcode provides a graphical editor for them - make sure to use the .plist extension so Xcode will recognize it.

How exactly are you performing 'Analog to Digital'???
Grabbing image using camera OR performing data acquisition using DAQ card OR some other way????

How to send the output to PDF format in reports 6i?

Hi,
How to send the output to PDF format in reports 6i? I given Mode = BITMAP.
DESTYPE = File, DESFORMAT = PDF, DESNAME = C:\x.pdf.
Report is running fine. But PDF file not generated. I don't know what i missed. Any one can help this?
Thanks
Kavitha

Hello,
Do you get this problem only for DESFORMAT=PDF ?
Test with :
DESFORMAT = RTF, DESNAME = C:\x.rtf
or
DESFORMAT = HTMLCSS, DESNAME = C:\x.html
does it work ?
Check if DESNAME is modified in the reports itself.

How to get the output of my batch file or script file

Hello,
I am a beginner in java and I have to run a batch file(in win) or a script(in linux). I want the output of the file in my java program. How to read the output. I used the following code and it always gave me the empty string output
Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p = null;
p = r.exec("./test.bat"); //./test.sh
int res = p.waitFor();
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String tempStr = "", str = null;
while((str=br.readLine()) != null) {
tempStr += str + "\n";
System.out.println(tempStr);
I know this is a simple one but it's taking a lot of time. Can any one there help me quickly.

hi
the below function works well for me..
just make a try with it
protected String runConsoleCommand(String command) throws IOException {
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
InputStream stdoutStream = new BufferedInputStream(p.getInputStream());
StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
for (; ; ) {
int c = stdoutStream.read();
if (c == -1)
break;
buffer.append( (char) c);
String outputText = buffer.toString();
stdoutStream.close();
System.out.println("the output to file is:"+outputText);
return outputText;
