Load and view into blobs in table outside of Apex installation

Is it possible to use APEX to load and view blob types(pds, docs etc) into a table with a blob type
where the table is in a separate database and instance then where Apex is installed? So would Apex be able to access
this table thru a db link?

Hi Kenn,
You are probably better off posting this request in this forum User Interface Development in ABAP as you are more likely to get a response.

  • Urgent- How to separate bad records from load and put into a separate table

    We have an error handling requirement in ODI 11g from the client that whenever a bad record is encountered the execution flow shud not stop rather it shud separate those records into an error table so that at the end of the load we shud be left with all the records (except bad records) in the target table and those bad records shud be there in a separate error table.
    The definition of the bad records may include the size of a column or datatype mismatch between source and target table. How to implement this error handling strategy in ODI or is there any out of box solution that we can leverage Please Help.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi SBV,
    Please find my responses below,
    I have tried the steps suggested, however i have some doubts:
    1. What all data exceptions (e.g. primary key constraint violation etc.) are covered in this mechanism?Yes you can handle PK,FK, Check constraints violations etc., using CKM.
    2. If there is a column size mismatch between source and target table will this work? (I think not because i tried it and it'll give error before populating the I$ table, because I$ is created according to the source).
    You are right column size mismatches will not be captured as a part of default CKM property.
    Also i am getting an error in the creation of SNP_CHECK_TAB step. In my case ODI is by default making a query like "create table .SNP_CHECK_TAB" , now this dot (.) before SNP_CHECK_TAB is making it an invalid table name and hence this step is a warning (not an error), but in the next step (delete previous checksum) it is throwing an error as this step is also looking for .SNP_CHECK_TAB table which is not there.
    Please help me where the issue lies. I have NO idea why it is making that query by default I have freshly impoted the CKM Oracle and used it.
    This is coz there is no DEFAULT physical schema not defined at your target data server.
    Go to, Topology Manager-> Phy architecture -> <Your Technology>-> <Your target data server>-> expand, open up your physical schema and check DEAFULT.
    Thanks,

  • SQL Loader and Insert Into Performance Difference

    Hello All,
    Im in a situation to measure performance difference between SQL Loader and Insert into. Say there 10000 records in a flat file and I want to load it into a staging table.
    I know that if I use PL/SQL UTL_FILE to do this job performance will degrade(dont ask me why im going for UTL_FILE instead of SQL Loader). But I dont know how much. Can anybody tell me the performance difference in % (like 20% will decrease) in case of 10000 records.
    Thanks,
    Kannan.

    Do not confuse the topic, as I told im not going to use External tables. This post is to speak the performance difference between SQL Loader and Simple Insert Statement.I don't think people are confusing the topic.
    External tables are a superior means of reading a file as it doesn't require any command line calls or external control files to be set up. All that is needed is a single external table definition created in a similar way to creating any other table (just with the additional external table information obviously). It also eliminates the need to have a 'staging' table on the database to load the data into as the data can just be queried as needed directly from the file, and if the file changes, so does the data seen through the external table automatically without the need to re-run any SQL*Loader process again.
    Who told you not to use External Tables? Do they know what they are talking about? Can they give a valid reason why external tables are not to be used?
    IMO, if you're considering SQL*Loader, you should be considering External tables as a better alternative.

  • Merge statement and insert into a third table

    I'm wondering if the merge statement will work in my case. I'm loading a file into a temporary table. I want to compare this temporary table with an existing source table (there are multiple source tables, I've thought of breaking them up into separate statements) and write out any differences to a third table. The third table would be used for future processing on the rows that are found to be different. Do you think this is possible using the merge command?

    Why use the merge command for that purpose?
    If you want to find out the differences of two tables and put the result into a third one then you should do
    insert into table_c
    query_a
    minus
    query_b
    or
    insert into table_c
    (query_a
    minus
    query_b)
    union all
    (query_b
    minus
    query_a)

  • Data from a file need to be read and mapped  into a custom table of R/3

    Hello all,
    This is related to inbound to  SAP ECC via SAP PI.
    There is a requirement concerning PI part that data from a file need to be read and mapped  into a custom table of R/3.
    To have this scenario developed , do we have any other  option than the Proxy ?
    My understanding is as follows : File --> SAP PI --> Proxy
    You suggestions are welcome.
    Regards,
    Rachana

    Hi Ravi,
    As suggested by Inaki, you can use proxy communication in recever.
    but you can also use the below
    FILE -----> PI -------> PROXY
                                  RFC
                                  IDOC
    to communicate to ECC system.

  • Safari is having problem loading messages in gmail. When using other browsers, there is no problem loading and viewing the messages. What is going on? please help!

    safari is having problem loading messages in gmail. When using other browsers, there is no problem loading and viewing the messages. What is going on? please help!

    I should have explained further. The game opens in a new window over to the upper left of my screen, leaving the original page underneath. I tried minimizing it so that I could get to my toolbar and did the View > Zoom > Reset. This has no effect. The lower portion of the game is still not showing. Using other browsers the window or frame of the game is much larger, therefore everything shows.

  • Stage tab delimited CSV file and load the data into a different table

    Hi,
    I pretty new to writing PL/SQL packages.
    We are using Application express for our development. We get CSV files which is stored as a BLOB content in a table. I need to write a trigger that would get executed once the user the uploads the file and parse thru the Blob content and upload or stage the data in a different table.
    I would like to see if there is any tutorial or article that could explain the above process with the example or sample code to do the same. Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

    Hi,
    This is slightly unusual but at the same time easy to solve. You can read through a blob using the dbms_lob package, which is one of the Oracle supplied packages. This is presumably the bit you are missing, as once you know how you read a lob the rest is programming 101.
    Alternatively, you could write the lob out to a file on the server using another built in package called utl_file. This file can be parsed using an appropriately defined external table. External tables are the easiest way of reading data from flat files, including csv.
    I say unusual because why are you loading a csv file into a blob? A clob is almost understandable but if you can load into a column in a table why not skip this bit and just load the data as it comes in straight into the right table?
    All of what I have described is documented functionality, assuming you are on 9i or greater. But you didn't provide a version so I can't provide a link to the documentation ;)

  • Loading XML file into non-XML table(s)

    HI Gentlemen,
    I successfully registered my schema and generated an xml-based table and a TYPE. However, I do not have the table that would correspond to this TYPE. How do I get to it? How can I use FTP or HTTP protocol to load actual data from the corresponding .xml file into this table?
    Thanks in advance, kind regards from
    Miklos HERBOLY

    You need to include the XML schema location information in the XML documents to point to the registered XML schema.
    For example,
    If you register an XML schema to XML DB with "http://www.example.com/po.xsd"
    In the XML document, the xml schema location can be:
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.example.com/po.xsd http://www.example.com/po.xsd">

  • Loading multiple files into a target table parallely

    Hi
    We are building an interface to load from flat files to an Oracle table. The input can be more than one files all of th same format. I have created a variable for the flat file data store. I have created 2 packages
    In package 1
    I have put odi file wait to trigger whenever files come into the directory . The list of files is written to a metadata table table. A procedure is triggered which picks a record from the metadata table and calls the scenario for calls package 2 by passing the selected record as parameter.
    In package 2
    The variable value is set to the parameter passed from package 1 procedure
    The interface runs to load the flat file = to the variable value into the target table
    Now if the directory has more than one flat file , the procedure in package 1 calls the package 2 scenario more than one times. This causes sequential load from each flat file to the target table. Is there a way wherein the multiple flat files can be loaded in parallel to the same target table? At this point ,I am not sure if this is possible as there is only one interface and one variable for the source file

    As per your requirement , your process seems to be always continues like a loop[ reason being as you have mentiond - I dont want to wait for all files to come in. As soon as a file comes in the file has to be loaded.  ] .
    You can solve the issue of file capture using OdiFileWait to let you know when the files have arrived.
    Tell me this what do you plan to when the File loading is complete, will that be in the same folder and when new files come will that update with the same name or different name , becuase irresptive of same file or different if the files are present in the same folder after loading into target , then we might do repetitive loading of files. Please tell me how do you plan to handle this.
    When you have plan to use LKM file to sql , what is the average number of source records coming into each sample files. ?
    Just to add to above question , what is the average numner of parallel loads you are expecting and what is the time interval between each paralled loading you are expecting.

  • How to load an image into blob in a custom form

    Hi all!
    is there some docs or how to, load am image into a database blob in a custom apps form.
    The general idea is that the user has to browse the local machine find the image, and load the image in a database blob and also in the custom form and then finally saving the image as blob.
    Thanks in advance

  • I have a Panasonic FZ38 HD camera. I can load and view my hd movies onto iMovie with no problems via my camera or a card reader.  When I try to copy my hd videos from my old Windows pc to my new iMac, the picture speed has doubled but the sound is normal.

    I have a Panasonic DMC-FZ38 HD camera and have lots of hd movie clips stored on my old Windows Pc using Photofun software supplied by Panasonic, which I want to transfer to my new Imac computer.   I am able to copy my most recent movies that are still on the memory card from my camera onto Imovie and view them with no problems at all.  When it comes to copying my old existing hd movies stored on my Windows Pc (and which are no longer stored on a memory card), I discover that when I view them on the Imovie, the speed has doubled but the sound is normal.   In order to transfer my old movies I have copied them back  onto a memory card (SDHC - the same card as previously used) and then put the card back into my camera and then copied them onto my Imac via the camera USB.   I have also used a card reader but get the same result.     If I view the same movie through my camera, or look at it on my old pc, it plays at normal speed.    Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening please?

    have you read and watch the Tutorials..? :
    http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/#imovie
    iM is a bit.. iffy, when it comes to the definition, what a 'camera' is. historically, only tape based machines were a movie-camera. nowadays still-cams allow movin' images too..
    but, as mentioned above: the intended workflow is: material from photo cameras (even when they move) => import via iPhoto; material from video cameras (even when they don't move.. ) => iMovie
    when the import is done, you'll notice in all iLife apps the 'media browser' - in iM09, on the very right, the icon with a camera on.. click it, presto, all (incl. your 'videos') your iPhoto Library at hand for usage in iMovie.
