Is there a SEQUENCE object, like in Oracle?

I want to create a table and I have 2 fields, user name and user e-mail. The user e-mail would be the key, but, for performance issues, I think it's advisable to create a 3rd field, simply to assign an ID to each row - a numerical field.
So as to every time a record is inserted in the table, this 3rd ID row is assigned a value automatically, with the next number in the sequence for the current record being added - if there are 11 records in the table and a 12th is being added, then the ID would be automatically set to 12 during the insertion of this 12th record.
I would do this in Oracle through a SEQUENCE object.
There's something equivalent I could use in SAP ?
Thanks,
Avraham

In SAP we have 'number ranges' which serves the same purpose.

Want to use sequence object of oracle when loading data in sql loader

Hi,
I want to use sequence when loading data in sqll loader, but the problem is i could not use sequence object of oracle to load the data by sql loader, i can use sequence of sql loader.
I want to use sequence object because in later entries this sequence object will be used.If i use sequence of sql loader how can i use oracle sequence object
Is there any other option

I have a simillar problem, I also want to use a sequence when loading data by the SQL Loader.
My control file is:
load data

into table robertl.tbltest
fields terminated by X'09'
trailing nullcols

How to dump your database including other objects like views, sequence,etc

hi.
is it possible to generate a sql file that contains your database structure including the values in it and other objects. I have tried generating just the tables and that's the only way I know to dump a database using jdeveloper. but is there a way to generate a sql file with your db structure and also other objects like views, triggers, sequences and etc.
thanks.. :D

You may need to use utility(which may come with your DB) for creating DB dump

Help|| Is there any tool available to register Oracle datasource objects into JNDI

Is there any tool available to register Oracle datasource objects into JNDI.If so please tell me where can I download.
Thanks
shiva

I'd like to know the answer to this also.
I just started reading about JNDI 2 days ago and have never used it. I'd like to use DataSource in my application with JNDI. If I can use the database as my JNDI "server", then I'd prefer to do that instead of having a seperate external server.

Sequence object in Oracle

Hello experts, I am using oracle 11g.I have a sequence to generate some ids.If I want that my sequence has been reset like i will start from starting again.It is possible to re initiate a sequence object in Oracle.If it is my client's requirement. Thank You regards aaditya

You could always use ALTER SEQUENCE
or simply re-create your sequence. However this may invalidate database objects.

Sequence diagram lifeline in Oracle BPA Suite

I try to create sequence diagram in Oracle Busines Process Architect 11g. I use type of model "UML Sequence diagram". But in palette there is no object with type "Lifeline". How can I add lifelines to my sequence diagram?

i guess you are clicking on file>new>model , or something like that.
y dont you first go to designer/explorer , make sure you see the navigator frame, and click on "local" in navigator frame to start the local database first. adn then login to any database to create a model/group.
In case it does not even happen then, and it still says unable to start the local server, check out the logs in <Oracle BPA Suite>\LocalServer\log directory and check what the error is.

Sequence object

Hi,
I can call Sequence object in application module like this way?
import oracle.jbo.server.SequenceImpl;
String SEQUENCE = "ACCOUNT_SEQ";
//Get the Sequence object
SequenceImpl accSeq = new SequenceImpl(SEQUENCE, getDBTransaction());
//Get the Sequence value
Number accValue = accSeq.getSequenceNumber();
But this didnot work in jsp page? is there a way i can get sequence value in jsp page since I do not want to use trigger by using DBSequence data type?
thanks

ok, here is another way to do it.
In the Java code for your entity look for the create method for your record and add a piece of code like this:
protected void create(AttributeList attributeList)
super.create(attributeList);
//make sure to change the name of the sequance in this line
SequenceImpl s = new SequenceImpl("JCAB_COMPANIES_S", getDBTransaction());
Long next = (Long)s.getData();
//this line will need to use the set method for your primary key column
this.setCompanyId(new Number(next.intValue()));
}

PL/SQL Object Type - Java oracle.jbo.domain

PL/SQL Object Type <-> Java oracle.jbo.domain
can anybody help me, getting my domains to work?
Following scenario:
in pl/sql we have an object type called MULTI_LANGUAGE. This type is used for storing multilingual texts as nested table in one(!) column.
So the object MULTI_LANGUAGE contains a member variable LANGUAGE_COLLECTION of type LANGUAGE_TABLE, which itself is a nested table of objects
of the type LANGUAGE_FIELD (this again is only a language id and the corresponding content)
Also the methods setContent(langID, langContent) and getContent(langId) are defined on Object MULTI_LANGUAGE.
For example: Table having primary key, 2 other columns and one column of object type MULTI_LANGAGE (=nested table of objects)
|ID|Column1|Column2| multilingual Column |
|--|---------------------------------------|
| |       |       | ------------------- |
| |       |       | | 1 | hello         | |
| |       |       | ------------------- |
|1 | foo   | bar   | | 2 | hallo         | |   <- Row Nr 1
| |       |       | ------------------- |
| |       |       | | 3 | ola           | |
| |       |       | ------------------- |
|--|-------|-------|-----------------------|
| |       |       | ------------------- |
| |       |       | | 1 | world         | |
| |       |       | ------------------- |
|2 | abc   | def   | | 2 | welt          | |   <- Row Nr 2
| |       |       | ------------------- |
| |       |       | | 3 | ??? ;-)      | |
| |       |       | ------------------- |
|--|-------|-------|-----------------------|Now i've tried to modell this structure as an oracle.jbo.domain.
class MultiLanguage extends Struct having this StructureDef:
attrs[(0)] = new DomainAttributeDef("LanguageColl", "LANGUAGE_COLL", 0, oracle.jbo.domain.Array.class, 2003, "ARRAY", -127, 0, false, "campusonlinepkg.common.LanguageField");
and
class LanguageField extends Struct having this StructureDef:
attrs[(0)] = new DomainAttributeDef("Id", "ID", 0, oracle.jbo.domain.Number.class, 2, "NUMERIC", -127, 0, false);
attrs[(1)] = new DomainAttributeDef("Content", "CONTENT", 1, java.lang.String.class, 12, "VARCHAR", -127, 4000, false);
Is there anything wrong with this StructureDef?

Please help, I'm stuck.
Thanks in advance, Christian

Thanks for your suggestion, but it seems to me as if there is one level missing.
in pl/sql I have following structure:
Struct MULTI_LANGUAGE (Object type) - outermost
Array LANGUAGE_TABLE (nested table type)
    Struct LANGUAGE_FIELD (Object type simple) - innermostthe reason why i had to wrap another struct around the array was because it is not possible to define methods on a nested table. this is only possible on objects.
on the outermost object type (which holds the array of language fields) I needed to define following 2 methods for direct access:
getContent (langId in number) returns varchar2
setContent (langId in number, langContent in varchar2)
I would like to rebuild the same structure in java, because newly written java code should live in perfect harmony with legacy pl/sql code ;-)
Both applications (Java and pl/sql) have to access the same data as long as migration to java goes on.
Is this nested structure too much for a Domain?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks again, Christian

How to Use Sequence Object Inside User-defined Function In SQL Server

I'm trying to call sequence object inside SQL Server user-defined function. I used
Next Value for dbo.mySequence to call the next value for my sequence created. But I'm getting an error like below.
"NEXT VALUE FOR function is not allowed in check constraints, default objects, computed columns, views, user-defined functions, user-defined aggregates, user-defined table types, sub-queries, common table expressions, or derived tables."
Is there any standard way to call sequence inside a function?
I would really appreciate your response.
Thanks!

The NEXT
VALUE FOR function cannot be used for User Defined function. It's one of the limitation.

MichaelFerrante,Thank you for your help.
I have already used the HS services to connecto to external databases from our main Oracle database, and the solution works fine.
But unfortunally for this particular client he cannont have installed a Oracle database due to internal policies restrictions.
I can not migrate the full application to another technology like ADF in less than 6 or 8 months.
Do you thifnk that there is any other solution?

SEQUENCE Object for Small Tables Only?

Well Erland, either you calm down your manager (with a martini?) or use NO CACHE.
QUOTE: "This could cause a sequence to run out of numbers much more quickly than an IDENTITY value. It could also cause managers to become upset that values are missing, in which case they’ll need to simply get over it and accept that
there will be numbers missing.
If you need SQL Server to use every possible value, configure a cache setting of NO CACHE. This will cause the sequence to work much like the IDENTITY property. However, it will impact the sequence performance due to the additional metadata writes."

Is there table type object in PL/SQL?

Hi.
What I'm trying to do is, according to the some conditions, aggregate data as an object type( I am not sure that there's a similar thing)
There are 5-6 conditions. then at last join those table type object.
FYI, Here is an example
Company will give bonus to a person who meet these conditions
1. Salary is less than 1000$ - salary table
2. More than 5 persons in his family - staff table
3. gross sale is over 10000$
In PL/SQL Package, I'll get those data as an object type and join those object just like in-line query.
select emp_no
from sal_tbl , staff_tbl, sale_tbl
where sal_tbl = staff_tbl
and sal_tbl = sale_tbl
In my opinion I can get employee list who get bonus. because they meet all conditions.
Reason why bonus condition will be updated continuously. I want to make them easy to maintanence. what if I need to add new conditions. Just add a new procedure that calculate new result and pass as an table type object.
select emp_no
from sal_tbl , staff_tbl, sale_tbl, new_tbl*
where sal_tbl = staff_tbl
and sal_tbl = sale_tbl
and sal_tbl = new_tbl*
Is there any thing just like what I think?
Thanks in advance

Not the best of ideas. If I'm getting what you're saying, you want to use the following approach:
SQL> create or replace type TStrings as table of varchar2(4000);
2 /
Type created.
SQL>
SQL>
SQL> create or replace procedure BadIdea( collection TStrings ) is
2 minVal string(4000);

6 select
7 MIN( column_value ) into minVal
8 from TABLE( collection );
9
10 select
11 MAX( column_value ) into maxVal
12 from TABLE( collection );
13 end;
14 /

5 object_name bulk collect into list
6 from user_objects;
7
8 BadIdea( list );
9 end;
10 /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.A collection of objects resides in (non-sharable and expensive) PL/SQL memory. Running SQL, requires the PL/SQL engine copying the data to the SQL engine into a structure and format that the SQL engine will understand.
This is slow. This is expensive. This does not scale.
It makes little sense to copy data from the very fast and hot and good and scalable db buffer cache into an expensive memory structure in the PGA and then run SQLs against that.
> Reason why bonus condition will be updated continuously. I want to make them easy
to maintanence. what if I need to add new conditions. Just add a new procedure that
calculate new result and pass as an table type object.
The way I read your SQL, your new_tbl* requires dynamic SQL. Which means you also need to dynamically cater for the correct column names to join on, to filter on, and to select from.
Also not the best of ideas. Dynamic SQL like that requires a lot of code to deal correctly with bind variables. Lot of exception handling as there can easily be run-time errors as the code itself that is executed in turn creates new dynamic code to execute.
If this is to be truly dynamic, then one approach would be that each rule needs to be executable as a SQL or PL/SQL block. Each rule needs to have an input like an employee number. Each rule needs to returns a boolean like value, saying whether the rule has passed or failed.
Only when all the rules have been passed, can the bonus be allocated.
This will deal fine with the "dynamic rule" requirement. Performance wise and scalability wise.. it may not be the best of ideas. 10 dynamic and very slow and expensive rules, could very well be rewritten as a one very fast and very cheap static SQL statement.
Anyway, the dynamic rule approach can look something like the following:
SQL> create or replace type TBonusRule is object

3 result# char(1),
4 member function Passed return boolean

PL/SQL rules can in a similar fashion be subclassed from the base/asbtract class. And rules can be persisted in a table too.
But even though I did this example to illustrate just how flexible Oracle can be, I would personally think hard before using the above approach myself.
Why?
Because rules 1 and 2 resulted in two SQLs being fired. A single SQL could have done the job.
2 SQLs were used for a single employee. I can use a single SQL to find ALL employees that matches the rule criteria.
So... not very scalable and not very fast.

Is there free jdbc type4 driver for oracle?

i neen to connect to oracle to develop my application, but there's a problem when tryin' to resolve peoblem of character set. in oracle, as i know, it uses unicode that resulting in the font code, which is not falling into the character set of unicode, whould cause failure in translating user defined font code. beside, for i do not know what kind of license that oracle jdbc type4 driver publishes, hope someone are able to tell me wheather there's any software like freetds in sql2000, because, if necessary, i may need to redistrubite the jdbc driver for my own use!
thanks in advice,

Oracle has drivers available from their site (free ones) for java and the specific version of Oracle you are running.

HT3053 I have a 13inch MacBook Pro and when I switch it on the apple logo appears then a slot and the circular symbol which is turning and then before opening the home screen it switches off again. Is there a sequence that I can use to force it to load.

I have got a 13 inch MacBook Pro and it got stuck in a loop so I switched it off by holding the power button down and now when I switch it on the apple logo appears then I get a blank slot at the bottom of the screen then the circle appears and rotates and then it switches off again, I have tried starting it again with the system disc that came with it when it was new but it makes no difference. Is there a sequence that I can use to force it to start.

Sorry. We can't help you. It's no longer an iPhone. Apple won't touch it.
Take it to whoever replaced the screen and see if they can help you.
iPhones are not user servicable and Apple does not sell iPhone parts at all. I'd be surprised if you were actually able to back it up at this point. It sounds like it's completely borked.

Is there an "Edit Object Tool" in Acrobat 11?

Is there an "Edit Object Tool" in Acrobat 11 that is comparable to the Edit Object Tool in Acrobat 10 and earlier versions? Has it been discontinued, or split into 2 loosely connected tools, the new Edit Text and Images Tool?
I love the new Edit Text Tool in Acrobat 11, but the old Edit Object Tool in Acrobat 10 and earlier versions was great when I wanted to resize a block of objects. The old Edit Object Tool would resize both text and graphic objects, but not everything like form fields, although there are limited workarounds like printing the file to pdf to flatten it and then resizing, but doing so will discard the form fields.
When using the old Edit Object Tool to resize a group of objects that contain text, it will scale the text in proportion to everything else in the selection. The new Edit Text and Images Tool in Acrobat 11 does not resize or scale the text. It does change the size of the text containers, but the text does not resize.
There are situations where it is valuable to resize a group of objects that contain both text and images, but I can't get the new tool to do it, or I'm not operating the tool correctly. Is this functionality gone in version 11, or am I doing something wrong or using the wrong tool?
I initially upgraded both of my laptop workstations from Acrobat 10 to 11, but have now gone back to running Acrobat 10 on one machine and Acrobat 11 on the other so I can realize the great new functionality of the new Acrobat 11 Text Tools without losing the valuable functionality of the Edit Object Tool in earlier versions.
I posted a 5 star positive review on Amazon at:
http://www.amazon.com/review/R3GAQNISK3WR4S/ref=cm_cr_pr_viewpnt#R3GAQNISK3WR4S
but I might have to drop it to 4 stars if the old functionality has been discarded
Clarification or guidance would be appreciated.

Dave, Thank you for the accurate and effective information. I added the icon to my toolbar.
