Hi all,
Does someone knows why i have an error using the java function setDouble with the NLS_TERRITORY = FRANCE and not with NLS_TERRITORY = AMERICA ?
what have i do to correct it ?
Thanks in advance

What is the output of the following, both when
NLS_TERRITORY = FRANCE and with NLS_TERRITORY = AMERICA ?

Java functions with Oracle 10g

I have browsed through other related message threads on this forum and it seems that the general recommendation is to develop stored procedures and functions using PL/SQL.
I need to implement a set of functions that perform date related processing and are self contained (no SQL code or calls). For this I could reuse some Java methods that I have successfully used in an Apache Derby database. In this situation what is your experience related to performance of Java functions compared to PL/SQL? Does the effort of rewriting this code in PL/SQL make sense?

I made some changes on the class posted by to solve the encoding problems with CLOBs.
So here is the result of my job.

Using Java Dictionary With Oracle

Can Someone tell how can i configure my java dictionary with oracle...Currently if a create a table from my IDE and then deploy it it deploys to the Default SAP DB ...how do i directrly create tables in oracle by just specifying the Deploy option ...
And further on I want my web Dynpro application to talk with oracle db..how do i acheive this..
Please Help!!

Hi,
Does this mean that the additional features of The Java Dictionary (bufferring etc ) can only be implemented if we ONLY connect to the SAP DB---- YES
If I have to utilize the services of Java Dictionary in my application i can only use The SAP DB database -- YES
You deploy a dictionary project to create a table in the DB.
When it is a DB created and used by Web AS ,it is possible to create tables in that DB with dictionary project using the standard connection parameters specified in visual admin.
Java Dictionary purpose is to create a DB abstraction by providing a standard interface to create tables whatever the DB used by WebAS maybe.

Question about function with in parameters

Hello,
I have a question about functions with in-parameters. In the HR schema, I need to get the minimum salary of the job_id that is mentioned as an in-parameter.
this is what I am thinking but I dont know if it's correct or not or what should I do next!
create or replace function get_minimum_salary (i_job_id in varchar2)
return number
as
begin
SELECT min_salary INTO min_sal
FROM jobs
where job_id = get_minimum_salary(xy);
RETURN i_job_id;
end get_minimum_salary;
thanks in advance
EDIT
Thanks for your help all.
Is it possible to add that if the i_job_id which is the in type parameter does not have a minimum salary then use the following function to register an error:
create or replace procedure insert_error (i_error_code in number,
i_error_message in varchar2)
as
begin
insert into error_table (error_user, error_date, error_code, error_message)
values (user,sysdate,i_error_code,i_error_message);
end insert_error;
This function is basically to say that an error has occured and to register that error, at the same time I need to print out the error using the dbms_out.put_line.
Any ideas of how to do that?
Thanks again

HI
I have made little bit changes in ur code. try this
create or replace function get_minimum_salary (i_job_id in varchar2)
return number
as
v_Min_sal jobs.salary%type=0;---- Variable declaration
begin
SELECT min_salary INTO v_ min_sal
FROM jobs
where job_id = i_job_id;
RETURN v_Min_sal;
end get_minimum_salary;

Function with incomplete parameters

I create a function with many parameters
and I call this function through my application
but when I call function I must declare all parameter inside this function like
ddd("a","b",0,0,0,0,0,0,0)
is there a method let function set a default value for parameter if code didn't declare it

You can send just few first parameters and the rest will be passed as false. If you need to pass, say, first and 7th parameter, then you put 6 commas between values, as there is no named parameters in VFP and all parameters are passed by position.

Xdk: calling java function with a CharSequence parameter

When using xdk version 10.1.0.2.0_production, you can not call a javamethod with a CharSequence parameter.
Sun documentation:
Interface CharSequence
All Known Implementing Classes:
CharBuffer, String, StringBuffer
This prevents us from calling a method like
java.util.regex.Pattern.matches(String, CharSequence)
Converting the parameter to a normal string would solve the problem.
Example to illustrate the issue:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xdt="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-datatypes" xmlns:Pattern="http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/java.util.regex.Pattern">
     <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:if test="Pattern:matches('...','123')">
<xsl:text>MATCH</xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
results in the following stacktrace:
oracle.xml.parser.v2.XPathException: Extension function error: Error invoking 'matches':'java.lang.NullPointerException'

using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
Console.WriteLine("\"True\" or \"False\"?");

Functions f = new Functions();
TestStruct t = new TestStruct() { Value = boolVal };
f.Flip(ref t);
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Flipped value = {0}: ", t.Value));
Console.ReadLine();
public struct TestStruct
public bool Value;
public class Functions

testStruct.Value = !testStruct.Value;
Best of luck.

Advice please: how to link java client with oracle AS

Dear Sirs...
how can i link java swing application with oracle application server? do i have to develop web service and then deploy it on the AS? or i should use another methodology? what exactly should i provide or should i use?
thanks for any help
best regards

There are a number of approaches you can take. A webservice would work well. You may also consider using EJBs and calling them via RMI or a webservice.
Either is a viable option depending on your requirements.

How to integrate Java SSO with Oracle Weblogic

Hi,
I am new to Oracle weblogic, but i want to do something like below.
I want to use Oracle weblogic as application server and want to integrate Java SSO into it. I think we can do it using Oracle access manager but since OAM itself is massive drop this plan.
I think we can use OC4j Java SSO into Oracle weblogic, but don't knw whether it is feasible.
Can somebody please guide me solve this problem.
Any suggestion or comment is most appreciated.

Java function with Dynamic config throws null pointer exception

hi Experts,
   I am using dynamic config using java function in my message mapping.
The source message has a field called "fname".
The value of "fname" is the input to my java UDF.
The java UDF code is:
   public String getDynamicFile(String fname, Container container) throws StreamTransformationException{
   String str = fname + ".xml";
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey FileName = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
conf.put(FileName, str);
return str;
   When I test this message mapping I get the following exception:
   Runtime Exception:[java.lang.NullPointerException: while trying to invoke the method com.sap.aii.mapping.api.DynamicConfiguration.put(com.sap.aii.mapping.api.DynamicConfigurationKey, java.lang.String) of an object loaded from local variable '<4>'] in class com.sap.xi.tf._<message mapping>_ method getDynamicFile[test, com.sap.aii.mappingtool.tf7.rt.Context@2e52cb31]
What am I doing wrong in this UDF?
Thanks
Gopal

Hi,
      Your UDF will run fine in an end to end execution,i.e, during runtime. However, if you want to test your message mapping test tab without the dynamic config UDF throwing an exception, encpasulate the code in a try catch block
public String getDynamicFile(String fname, Container container) throws StreamTransformationException{
String str = fname + ".xml";
try{
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey FileName = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
conf.put(FileName, str);
}catch(Exception ex){}
return str;
The above code should run fine when you test in the message mapping test tab.

Oracle Function with out parameters

Hi, I'm trying to access a stored function on an oracle server with 2 out parameters, 2 in parameters and an out ref cursor.
PL/SQL looks like this
nStatusCode OUT INTEGER,
sStatusMsg OUT VARCHAR2,
sUsrNr IN VARCHAR2,
sPassword IN VARCHAR2,
crsReturn OUT pck_cursor.retRecordSet
I drag the function onto dataset designer and it successfully maps the results to the datatable, it maps datatypes for first out parameters to decimal and string.
the method genearated for fill by looks like (out decimal?,out string,string, string, out object)
problem is, everytime i try to call this function it gives me casting exceptions for the first 2 out parameters, for the decimal it's not specified in more detail. for the other one it says there was an exception casting from OracleString to string. If I change the PL/SQL function to leave the first 2 out parameters away it works fine. Do I manually need to change the TableAdapter definitions??

Hi,
I think I found the problem but not a good solution. It seems to be a problem with auto code generation for TableAdapters in the Dataset wizard. In the Parameter Definition for the Command I set DbType.Decimal and DbType.Sting for the SqlDbtype Property of the out params. The GetData and Fill Method is generated with Fill(out decimal? out1, out string out2). When I look in the generated code ith first sets the SqlDbtype as written but after this also the OracleDbtype to OracleDbType.Decimal and OracleDbType.Varchar2. The casting these types before returning the throws the exception. Any idea how to change this behavior?
