Table(cast - invalid datatype problem

Hi All,
Basic scenario:
PACKAGE
create or replace
PACKAGE C2_PAYMENT_DOC IS
TYPE bin_array IS TABLE OF NUMBER
INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
FUNCTION test_fun(l_doc_id IN integer) RETURN bin_array;
PACKAGE_BODY
create or replace
package body C2_PAYMENT_DOC as
FUNCTION test_fun (l_doc_id IN integer) RETURN bin_array IS
l_gross bin_array;
begin
c2_purchase_invoice.get_inv_gross_amount(l_doc_id, l_gross(1));
return l_gross;
end;
END;
QUERY
select * from Table(Cast(c2_payment_doc.test_fun(1) As bin_array));
Result of the query is ORA-00902: invalid datatype
How can I make the select statement valid?
Thanks in advance,
Bartek

You can not use local collection types in SQL. You must create type bin_array as SQL nested table type. Also, depending on version you might not need to cast:
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE
2    TYPE bin_array
3      AS TABLE OF NUMBER
4 /
Type created.
SQL> create or replace
2   PACKAGE C2_PAYMENT_DOC IS
3 FUNCTION test_fun(l_doc_id IN integer) RETURN bin_array;
4 end;
5 /
Package created.
SQL> create or replace
2 package body C2_PAYMENT_DOC as
3
4 FUNCTION test_fun (l_doc_id IN integer) RETURN bin_array IS
5 l_gross bin_array := bin_array();
6 begin
7      l_gross.extend;
8      l_gross(1) := l_doc_id;
9 return l_gross;
10 end;
11 END;

ORA-00902: invalid datatype

There is a table t_emp, having column clm1, clm2, clm3, clm4, etc.
Datatype of columns:-
clm1 -- Number
clm2 -- Number(12)
clm3 -- Char(4)
Now, I am trying to create a primary key using statement:
alter table t_emp
add constraint primary key (clm1, clm2, clm3)It gives oralce error ORA-00902: invalid datatype.
what is wrong at this place?
Any thought?
Regards,
Ritesh

You need to give your primary key a name (which is good practice anyway):
SQL> r
1 create table t_emp (
2 clm1 Number,
3 clm2 Number(12),
4 clm3 Char(4)
5* )
Table created.
SQL> alter table t_emp
2 add constraint primary key (clm1, clm2, clm3)
3 /
add constraint primary key (clm1, clm2, clm3)

I am new to Oracle.... using document "40261_leveragingtools.pdf" as a guide against a cube created using "Global_AWM10g_Handson.doc".
AWM displays data from cube without a problem.
I would welcome any assistance.

Can you provide the definition of sales_type_table? Also, Are all of the dimensions you have created of type TEXT?

ORA-00902: invalid datatype comile error while using CAST function

Hi everyone,
I'm getting ORA-00902: invalid datatype compilation error while using CAST function.
open ref_cursor_list for select empName from TABLE(CAST(part_t AS partnumberlist));
The partnumberlist and ref_cursor_list is declared in the Package spec as given below.
TYPE ref_cursor_list IS REF CURSOR;
TYPE partnumberlist IS TABLE OF emp.empName%TYPE;
The error points the partnumberlist as invalid datatype in TOAD because of this i'm unable to compile the package.
Any suggestion
Thanks and regards
Sathish Gopal

Help ORA-00902: invalid datatype

I am getting the following error for a constraint I have created, cant see why it doesnt work?
(EXISTS(SELECT best_buy_gourmet_name
ERROR at line 5:
ORA-00902: invalid datatype
This constraint is just below my variable declerations in a create Endorses table:
CONSTRAINT
(EXISTS(SELECT best_buy_gourmet_name
FROM(SELECT * FROM Sells,Endorses WHERE Sells.shop_name = Endorses.shop_name)
GROUP BY best_buy_gourmet_name HAVING COUNT(*) > 0)),
Thanks for your time

You cannot do this in a CHECK constraint. What you need to do is define a foreign key between ENDORSES and SELLS tables.

Run time error INVALID DATATYPE from package

Hi,
I compiled the package spec. and body. But, when I issue select mytest_pack.get_res_set from dual, oracle return invalid data type error.
My requirement to develop packaged function need to return multiple rows by using record type. This can be achieved by using pipe lined function or
sys refcursor. But, I would like the packaged function return must return record type.
Can you pl. correct this package code.
Thanks,
Murali

     end get_res_set;
end mytest_pack;
Table mytable script script is
CREATE TABLE MYTABLE

insert into mytable values (2, '[email protected]', 'YOPT 1', 'OPT 2', 'OPT 3', sysdate);

I dont see any problem with your code.
The problem is with "select mytest_pack.get_res_set from dual"
You cannot select complex datatypes from dual.
Why dont you try an anonymous pl/sql block and try assigning the record values into another record or table.
select xxx into xxx ...

Pl sql invalid datatype error for table casting(PL/SQL: ORA-00902: invalid)

See the code snippet -
Create or Replace Package xyz.abc as
TYPE rec_local is record of (primary_key emp.p_key%type, nam emp.name%type,addres emp.address%type);
Type tab_local is Table of rec_local;
Procedure exclude_pkey (tab1 IN tab_local );
End xyz.abc
Create or Replace Package Body xyz.abc as
Procedure exclude_pkey (tab1 IN tab_local );
Cursor cur is
select primary_key
from table(*cast(tab1 as tab_local *)))
where primary_key NOT IN (select primary_key
from emp)
BEGIN
END exclude_pkey ;
End abc;
I came to know the process that for query purpose we cant use pl/sql type, it must sql type, i.e. creating object and table of that object type in sql,and use of MEMEBER OF ,but what should i do in this case where insted of IN(MEMBER OF can be used for the case of IN) ,NOT IN is used for query.
please reply,
thank you

You are only selecting a single column, primary_key, in your cursor.
You could use the built in sys.ODCINumberlist or sys.ODCIVarchar2list data types instead and pass in only the primary_key.
Re: Passing an array to an Oracle stored procedure
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e10765/ext_types_ref.htm#ADDCI5012
If you are on an old version you can create your own types with the same definition.
Using a cursor like that I can tell that you want to do whatever this does as slowly and inefficiently as possible though.

Timestamp Datatype invalid in Oracle9i

I tried to set a column to timestamp datatype in 9i but it returns invalid datatype
Can anyone tell me why is this happen?
I used the following statement
create table test (modified timestamp);

No, TIMESTAMP is not supported in Forms. However, a fix is forthcoming to address problems with the Builder's Wizards improper handling of unsupported datatypes such as this one.

Adding a FK constraint to a column in an Abstract Datatype?

Hi there
I've tried to alter a table to add a foreign key constraint to a column within an abstract data type using the usual syntax, but i keep getting the following error:
ORA-00902: invalid datatype
I'm not sure if its because i'm not using the correct syntax, or simply because it cannot be done. I have a feeling it is because of the latter! Either that or i'm not referencing the ADT correctly.
If anyone knows if this can be done or not i would be greatful of any help or advice.
Thanks
Matt

Matthew,
Make sure the syntax is correct. Check out the documentation on 'Constraints for Object Tables' at http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/appdev.817/a76976/adobjmng.htm#1002713
