Hi All,
As said early creating sequence through dynamic SQL
its creating sequence fine but when i try to use sequence in same procedure then procedure getting error..
create or replace procedure proc_seq_genrate as
begin
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE SEQUENCE BU_ROLE_DSK_ITEM_SEQ START WITH 100 INCREMENT BY 1 MAXVALUE 9999999999999999999 '||
'MINVALUE 100 NOCYCLE CACHE 100 ORDER';--- hard coded value 100 will changed according to  PK max value of the table .. for getting max value i will write SQL Query
end;
Procedure created.
create or replace procedure proc_seq_genrate as
begin
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE SEQUENCE BU_ROLE_DSK_ITEM_SEQ START WITH 100 INCREMENT BY 1 MAXVALUE 9999999999999999999 '||
'MINVALUE 100 NOCYCLE CACHE 100 ORDER';--- hard coded value 100 will changed according to  PK max value of the table .. for getting max value i will write SQL Query
INSERT INTO ROLE_ACTIVITY (SELECT ROLE_ACTIVITY_SEQ.NEXTVAL, -98, ACTIVITY_CD, REC_ST, 1, ROW_TS, USER_ID, CREATE_DT, SYS_CREATE_TS, CREATED_BY FROM ROLE_ACTIVITY WHERE ROLE_ID=-99 );
end;
7     35     PL/SQL: ORA-02289: sequence does not existI have understood that its looking for Sequence but
pls any one explain me why its looking sequence in compile time itself.. any way we are going to use the sequence only at run time right.. i would like to know is there any technical reason behind this..
Thanks & regards
Sami.
