Include Column type in XML result set

Hi
I'm trying to get result of my query as XML but how I can specify columns data type in xml attributes?
This is my query:
SELECT * FROM Acc.GL FOR XML AUTO, ELEMENTS, TYPE, BINARY BASE64;
Unfortunately in XML result, column types are not specified:
<row>
<Id>23</Id>
<GLCode>1</GLCode>
<BranchRef>1</BranchRef>
<Title>Foo Title</Title>
<Balance>1</Balance>
</row>
<row>
<Id>24</Id>
<GLCode>2</GLCode>
<BranchRef>1</BranchRef>
<Title>Bar Title</Title>
<Balance>1</Balance>
</row>
What I expect is something like this:
<row>
<Id type="int">23</Id>
<GLCode type="int">1</GLCode>
<BranchRef type="int">1</BranchRef>
<Title type="nvarchar">Foo Title</Title>
<Balance type="int">1</Balance>
</row>
<row>
<Id type="int">24</Id>
<GLCode type="int">2</GLCode>
<BranchRef type="int">1</BranchRef>
<Title type="nvarchar">Bar Title</Title>
<Balance type="int">1</Balance>
</row>
What should I change in my query?

how I can specify columns data type in xml attributes?
Hello,
XML Format don't allow to specify the data types in this way, you have to create XSD = "Schema Definition" instead, here are the data types defined.

How to return two XML result sets using the function

Hi Experts,
Thanks.

So that I want to return two XML result sets if the query returns more than 50,000 records.
One XML result set with 50,000 and another XML result set with remaining records.
How to incorporate this in my function.
Have the function return a collection of CLOB then.
DBMS_XMLGEN can handle pagination so it's easy to adapt your existing code.
Here's an example fetching data in batches of max. 3 rows each, using a pipelined function :
SQL> create or replace type clob_array is table of clob;
2 /
Type created
SQL>
SQL> create or replace function genXmlRowset (p_deptno in number) return clob_array pipelined
2 is
3    ctx    dbms_xmlgen.ctxHandle;
4    doc    clob;
5 begin
6
7    ctx := dbms_xmlgen.newContext('SELECT empno, ename FROM scott.emp WHERE deptno = :1');
8    dbms_xmlgen.setBindValue(ctx, '1', p_deptno);
9    dbms_xmlgen.setMaxRows(ctx, 3);
10
11    loop
12
13      doc := dbms_xmlgen.getXML(ctx);
14      exit when dbms_xmlgen.getNumRowsProcessed(ctx) = 0;
15      pipe row (doc);
16
17    end loop;
18
19    dbms_xmlgen.closeContext(ctx);

Hide or Remove OCI Check Box column from Standard MDM Result Set iview

Hi,
Can we hide or remove the OCI Check box column from the Standard MDM Result set ivew?
Though i have made OCI disabled, I dont want to display the check boxes along with the product list.
Can you please help?
Thanks and best regards,
Arun prabhu S

Hi Arun,
If you are talking about the very first check box, then that is not related to OCI. Use of check box is to anable multiple item selection which can be used adding the records in the workflow, for comparison etc.

Adding hard coded column values to a result set.

DB version:10gR2
Example from sample schema SCOTT
select e.ename, e.empno, d.loc
from
emp e inner join dept d on (e.deptno=d.deptno)
and e.ename like 'M%';
ENAME           EMPNO LOC
MARTIN           7654 CHICAGO
MILLER           7934 DALLAS
For every ename like 'MARTIN' the following two rows (hardcoded column values 001-985 and 003-745 ) should get created.
PAY_TYPES   PAY_CODES
   001           985
   003           745
   Everything else must remain same.
The result set should look like the following. Here two rows got created for MARTIN and MILLER.Everything else remains the same
ENAME           EMPNO PAY_TYPES   PAY_CODES               LOC
MARTIN           7654 001           985               CHICAGO
MARTIN        7654 003           745                       CHICAGO
MILLER           7934 001           985                  DALLAS
MILLER           7934 003           745                  DALLAS
How is this possible?

Hello Scott,
Try this,

XML result set storage and stored procedures

Hi,
Is there an alternative way to store and process a large data result set from an XML document without using temporary tables in an Oracle DB? If so, how can this be implemented using stored procedures?
Additional Info:
I am planning to use a directory server as my data source and returning an XML document to the store procedure that executes a query to this server. I read somewhere that table variables can be used as an alternative, however it is not the desired option when you have large result sets due to potential performance issues. Any guidance you can provide would be appreciated. Thanks

You could have a go with XML functions, but probably, because you mentioned "large data result set", you will have to deal with it programmatically. I have read once good examples in a book called "Building Oracle XML Applications" from Steve Muench (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/orxmlapp/), but it is a little bit dated. Nevertheless a book from Steve is worth while.

I want to change the type of a Result Set

Hello all,
I was using a ResultSet object to store the results of a query, and when i attempted to use the ResultSet function "last()", i had a SQL exception saying that I cannot use this function on a ResultSet of type TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY. How can I change the type of a ResultSet to be for example TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE, so that i can use the 'last()' function? I can only find a function caleed getType() but i want a function to allow me to set the type of the ResultSet.....
Thanks a lot

The type is determined when you create the Statement or PreparedStatement object. See the documention for Connection.createStatement or Connection.prepareStatement.

Row to column conversion in large result set

I need to get the differnt levels of alerts for each user, with the total alert counts and counts for each type of alert.
SELECT COUNT(*) TOTAL,
        u.name,
        d.deptname,
        COUNT(CASE WHEN al.severity = 5 THEN 1 END) INDETERMINATE,
        COUNT(CASE WHEN al.severity = 4 THEN 1 END) WARNING,
        COUNT(CASE WHEN al.severity = 3 THEN 1 END) MINOR,
        COUNT(CASE WHEN al.severity = 2 THEN 1 END) MAJOR,
        COUNT(CASE WHEN al.severity = 1 THEN 1 END) CRITICAL
FROM alerts al, user u, dept d
WHERE al.userid = u.userid
AND u.deptid = d.deptid
AND al.time = sysdate - 4/24
AND al.time <= sysdate
GROUP BY u.name, d.deptname This might be inefficient especially when the amount of data is huge and potentially you could be looking at millions of rows in a given interval. So I was thinking of grouping by severity, which would eliminate the CASE statements, but then the problem on group by is that I get it as a rows instead of columns.
Would anyone have a suggestion as to do it effeciently especially one that has millions of rows? Thanks.

I guess eventually we are probably going to move towards that, but using a staright forward query is the immediate solution and any help on that would be great. Thanks.

ADF BC : "Attributes selected in query with no column type found! ..."

hi
Using JDeveloper 10.1.3.3.0, I have this "Selected in Query" attribute, "Never" updatable, in my Entity Object.
The Entity Object is based on the SCOTT.EMP table and the attribute, called "BonusInfo", is defined using the expression " '[bonus info ' || (SAL * 2) || ']' ".
see http://verveja.footsteps.be/~verveja/files/oracle/NoColumnTypeFoundApp-v0.01.zip
While creating this Entity Object, I got a "Business Components" dialog that says:
"Column type is not specified for this attribute. Specifying column-type and precision results in better query performance at runtime. Do you wish to set column type to VARCHAR2(255)?"
I clicked "Yes".
I also created two View Objects based on this Entity Object.
In the "Create View Object" wizard "Step 4 of 7: Attribute Settings" I got a "Business Components" diaglog that says:
"Attributes selected in query with no column type found! Specifying column-type and precision results in better query performance at runtime. Do you wish to set default column type for these attributes?"
I clicked "Yes".
Testing the query in "Step 5 of 7: SQL Statement" showed "Query is valid.".
question:
Why do I keep getting the message ...
"Attributes selected in query with no column type found! Specifying column-type and precision results in better query performance at runtime. Do you wish to set default column type for these attributes?"
... in the View Object Editor if I click on different attributes?
(I don't get such a message the first time I click on an attribute after opening the View Object Editor, but after that it keeps popping up each time I click on a different attribute, no matter what I answer "Yes", "No" or "Cancel".)
many thanks
Jan Vervecken

Jan,
BC needs the column type and precision so that we can allocate the correct JDBC buffer size; otherwise we would just allocate 2k per string.

Attributes selected in query with no column type found! (solved)

Dear JHeadstart Team,
In the view object Editor I have two entity based attributes attrib1 and attrib2
both with type Number. Both have aliases with type number(9,0)
If attrib1 is null I want to have the value of attrib2.
In the expression box I put: nvl(attrib1,attrib2)
When I press the ok button I get the next error message.
"Attributes selected in query with no column type found!
Specifying column-type and precision results in better query performance at runtime.
Do you wish to set default column type for these attributes? "
When I say ok I get the next message:
"An error occurred. Unable to apply all the wizard changes.
Column type cannot be changed for Entity based attribute.
Exception: oracle.jbo.dt.objects.JboExeption."
The details button serves no extra information.
Since both the attributes have the same type I thought the nvl commando should work.
But what does the "no column type found" sentence mean?
regards,
Marcel.

Thanks Jan,
You've put me on the right track.
I found out that this is only possible in the entity object class.
So I have to check my limited java skills.

How can I use a Lookup task to lookup from my SQL Result set and have a join

So in my Control Flow, I have an Execute SQL Task which gets my Table result set. I then have a Foreach Loop Container that iterates through the result set and a Data Flow. The first task in the Data Flow is an OLE DB Source SQL Command that retrieves data
columns associated with my result set. I then do a Derived Column so I can SUBSTRING from one of my data columns and now I want to perform a Lookup to my Application Database.
How do I code my Lookup task to utilize my SQL Result set variable and match on it? I cannot use the GUI for the Lookup task as my Lookup has to have some JOINS in it.
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Can you expand on that? I'm sorry but I am new and a novice to the SSIS world and I want to do this as best I can and as efficiently as I can. Are you saying that Rajen's way suggested above is the way to go?
A little background....external data from a 3rd party client. I'v staged that external data to a SQL Server staging table. I have to try and match that data up to our database using SSN, DOB, and Gender...and if I can't match that way then I have to try
and match by Name. I need to make sure that there is only one and only one account for that match. If I cannot match and match one and only one, then I'll create rows on a DataAnomaly Table. If I do match, then I have to check and make sure that there is only
one and only one Member span for that match. Similarly handle the data anomaly and then check and make sure there is a "Diabetes" claim and similarly handle the DataAnomaly accordingly.
That's where I'm at. Sooooo are you saying to use Rajen's suggestion? I don't think I can do that because I need multiple SQL tasks and I cannot connect multiple OLE DB Source tasks.
Any help and suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Incorrect result set with using isnull() function in IQ 16

Hi team,
We have IQ 16 on HP UX.
When we use isnull() function in where clause we get incorrect result set if we do not use column name in the result set.
In first select we get result with one row but in second one we get an empty result set.
select ID, dat_start, dat_end, dat_stop
from table_test
where ID=1105935925
and isnull(dat_stop,dat_start) <> dat_end
select ID
from table_test
where ID=1105935925
and isnull(dat_stop,dat_start) <> dat_end
It depends on number of row or volume of data in table, It is possible to use option Revert_To_V15_Optimizer to get the correct result.
Do you have any different idea how to solve it?
Thanks Milos.

We have tested two versions:
Sybase IQ/16.0.0.653/131122/P/sp03/ITANIUM/HP-UXi 11.31/64bit/2013-11-22 01:49:18
SAP IQ/16.0.0.807/140507/P/sp08/ITANIUM/HP-UXi 11.31/64bit/2014-05-07 21:11:45
Both versions have given same mistake.
We have not opened any support case for this issue because it is data depended issue. It is not easy to simulate it as an example.
Do you think we should open a support case for it?

Access result set in user define type of table

here is the situation. I have a stored procedure that dequeues messages of a AQ and passes them as an OUT parameter in a collection of a user defined type. The same type used to define the queues. The java code executes properly but seems like we don't/can't access the result set. We don't receive any erros but don't know how to access the results. I've included relevant parts of the problem.
I know this should be doable but........Can someone please tell us what we are doing wrong....thanks in advance.

Hi,
Sorry but I'd refer you to the following sections (and code samples/snippets) in my book:
Mapping User-Defined Object Types (AD) to oracle.sql.STRUCT in section 3.3, shows how to pass user defined types as IN, OUT,IN/OUT
JMS over Streams/AQ in the Database: shows how to consume AQ
message paylod in section 4.2.4
CorporateOnine, in section 17.2, show how to exchanges user defined type objects b/w AQ and JMS
All these will hopefully help you achieve what you are trying to do.

Including HTML tags in Spry XML data sets

How does one add HTML tags to Spry XML data sets so that the displayed items include that markup?
For example, I might want to bold-face words within XML data items. I have tried adding the markup, but instead of seeing, for example:
This is bold face
in the Spry table, I see:
This is <b>bold</b> face
I have tried using CDATA elements in the XML to no avail.

Set the data type for the column as per
var ds1 = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("myData.xml", "rows/row");
ds1.setColumnType("myColumn", "html");
