Limit Size & Content of String

I was just wondering if there's an easy, pre-defined way of limiting the number of characters, and what characters are allowed in a string. I want to limit a string to 20 characters, and not allow apostrophe's, commas, etc. I'm sure I can program this, but thought there might already be something I could use?

Content Server: Size limit for content stored in DB

Hi,
I would like to configure Content Server to store content in a database instead of file system. Is there any file size limit when content is stored in the database?

I read some earlier article that states that there is a 32k LIMIT on the size of an parameter (OUT or IN parameter). Is that still true for Oracle 11g?
If it is, for the following procedure:
create or replace procedure test_proc(myid out number, mydoc CLOB, img BLOB)
The maximum characters I can pass in is 32K? While the number (myid) is whatever the NUMBER type allows?
Thanks

How to measure the size of a string

windows app store how to measure the size of a string?
string str = "Hello word windows app store";

if you need the actual width the string occupies in pixels than use (see
this MSDN link for more details):
Graphics.MeasureString(String, Font)
if you only need the "length" of the string i.e. no. of characters than use (see
this MSDN link for more details):
str.Length
dont forget to bing / google :)
hope this helps!
Graphics.MeasureString(String, Font) can not use in windows store app.
TextBlock has Measure()
method, as following:
Size MeasureString(string content, Size availableSize, double fontSize, string fontFamily="Segoe UI")
    TextBlock tb = new TextBlock();
    tb.TextWrapping = TextWrapping.Wrap;
    tb.Text = content;
    tb.FontFamily = new Windows.UI.Xaml.Media.FontFamily(fontFamily);
    tb.FontSize = fontSize;
    tb.Measure(availableSize);
    return tb.DesiredSize;
Test:
string str = "Hello word windows app store";
Size size = MeasureString(str, new Size(800, 600), 40);

In DeskI, what's the maximum for "Limit size of long text objects"? 2000?

In Universe Designer, we have a setting which is "Limit size of long text objects", it can control how many characters can be displayed for long text objects.
The problem is that in DeskI, we can only display 2000 characters even we set 2500 or more in Universe Designer by "Limit size of long text objects". But if we use the same Universe & same Database, WebI can show 2500 or more characters for long text objects.
So does it mean in DeskI the maximum value for "Limit size of long text objects" is 2000?

Hi Jason,
Check that the object in the universe is set to data type "long text".
Also check that the object itself is not limiting the length of the string, as well as that the entire string is actually in the database... the data type here could also be the issue.
Hope this helps

DocNote 376987.1 getContentAsString vs get-content-as-string: is this fix ?

I've hit a problem with orcl:get-content-as-string() (BPEL 10.1.2), which looks like it's already been identified. When multiple namespace are passed within a tag I get 'import not allowed on nodes of type element declaration'
metalink search finds a technote (relevent text quoted below) but I can't find an actual bug report. Is the suggested use of ora:getContentAsString instead of orcl:get-content-as-string the only permanent solution? Are there any issues to be aware of when swicthing to ora:getContentAsString ?
Regards
Rob
From Doc Note 376987.1:
"The function "get-content-as-string()" might also throw the following error when the xml tags contains namespace declarations.
"import not allowed on nodes of type element declaration"
To workaround the error us the function "ora:getContentAsString()" instead
The function "ora:getContentAsString()" has therefore always to be used in favor of the function "orcl:get-content-as-string()"

use always: ora:getContentAsString()

Limit size (in byte) of SELECT-OPTIONS in WHERE clauses

hi,
as far as I know there is a limit size (in byte) for SELECT-OPTIONS used in WHERE clauses. Is it true? What is the limit? If the SELECT-OPTIONS is based on lifnr (character type, 10 long) is the following calculation valid?
sign - 1 byte
option - 2 bytes
low - 10 bytes
high - 10 bytes
23 bytes all together for one line, is this valid?
thanks

How can I manage byte size of a string value in java?

Hi,
How can I manage byte size of a string value in java? I have NAME column in my database table, of type VARCHAR2(128). Supports multilingual, so value in Name can be English, French or Dutch.. like that. Byte size of English character is 1 and that of French is 2 and varies.. . Because of this reason I find difficulty in insert query. Please suggest solution.

But the event does not really have a size - you can export the photos and make the size pretty much what you want - while it is in iPhoto it is an event
I guess that iPhoto could report the size of the original photos as imported - or the size of the modified photos if exported as JPEGs - or the size of the modified photos if exported with a maximum dimension of 1080 - but the event simply is photos and does not have a "size" until you export it
Obviously you want to know the size but the question was
what is your puprose for knowing the size?
WIth that information maybe there is a way to get you what you want
But the basic answer is simply that an event does not have a size - an event is a collection of photos and each photo has either two or three versions in the iPhoto library and each photo can be exported for outside use in several formats and at any size

What is the size of a string data type

Hello,
What is the size of a string data type. Also what is the maximum size upto which a text file can grow?
Thanks in advance
cooldude

Hi cooldude,
the size of a string is given back by the function "String size". Strings are dynamically managed in LabView.
The max filesize is limited by the used filesystem. FAT-based systems are limited to 4GB (or was it 2GB?), other filesystems may allow more...

Second exception: ORA-21560: argument 2 is null, invalid, or out of range

Either your stacktrace is incomplete or you make something wrong by copy/paste. And please, by providing sql/plsql code, use the tags [ code ] [ / code ] or [ pre ] [ / pre ], otherwise it is very hard to read.

Limit size of item uploaded

hi!
1. how can i limit the size of the item being uploaded?
2. can i set the folder size just like content area quota?
thx in advance.

The original poster has a valid point. Facebooks terms of service changes makes it possible to upload images at resolutions (currently 2048 on longest side--if you print at 200dpi that's a 10in photo) that are well beyond "here are some cool web-sized snapshots" to share friends and family. If I take a photo of a superbowl winning touchtown catch (however unlikely that might be), that photo has commercial value. If that image ends up "in the wild" on Facebook/etc... at print resolution, there's little chance I'll get paid for it. The current Aperture interface gives you no indication of how it treats images when publishing to Facebook. And frankly, even if Facebook lets you set preferences that cap how large they display the images you upload, I'd might prefer not to send them high resolution versions by default.
A max height/width option in Apertures Facebook preferences tab (maybe with the option to override the default per Facebook album) would be a valuable addition to Aperture.

Size of connect string

Is there any limit on the length of the connect string?
Thanks
Fiaz

Hi Sarvani
Database Name: select name from v$database . Although you need select privs on the dictionary. select global_name from global_name may or may not give you what you're after. If you substring up to the first "." it should be right. Can't think of any other way.
Connect string: This is a client issue. From the database we can't know that. We can find the SID from v$instance or the registered service names using select value from v$parameter where name = 'service_names' but again you'll need select privs. You also need the listener port and there is not way of finding it from inside the DB. select local_listener from v$parameter will tell you your local listener but you'd have to query the listener (lsnrctl status) to find it's listen port. If you want to get really adventerous you could guess at it. select hostname,instance_name from v$instance and guess at 1521 or 1522 for the port. This won't work well for RAC.
Size: Schema size or application size?
