Need exaples using XMLType tables

I have been going through the XML DB documentation and I am having a problem finding exmples of queries/transformations using XMLType tables.
All of the documentation that I find talks about querying relational tables and returning XML data. Or querying actual xml files stored on the filesystem.
I am working on a system that stores xml in tables created by the schema registration process. To the best of my knowledge this information is stored directly in the database and not in files on the file system.
I need an example of two XML Type tables being combined to create one XML document. I believe I can figure out how to do this using the XMLELEMENT, and XMLFOREST functions but it would be nice to see some examples useing the .Transform(XSLT) method.
Thanks

ehhh, "xml stored on the filesystem", regarding loading xml data I presume, all the other info is about query data in the database (you are sure that you have read this in the XMLDB Developers Guide?)
Th following (great) example is not regarding regular XML (its about a XSD), BUT you don't need much imagination to see the possibilities regarding selecting data from two or more tables...
Can we create XML Schema

Insert XML file into Relational database model without using XMLTYPE tables

Dear all,
How can I store a known complex XML file into an existing relational database WITHOUT using xmltypes in the database ?
I read the article on DBMS_XMLSTORE. DBMS_XMLSTORE indeed partially bridges the gap between XML and RDBMS to a certain extent, namely for simply structured XML (canonical structure) and simple tables.
However, when the XML structure will become arbitrary and rapidly evolving, surely there must be a way to map XML to a relational model more flexibly.
We work in a java/Oracle10 environment that receives very large XML documents from an independent data management source. These files comply with an XML schema. That is all we know. Still, all these data must be inserted/updated daily in an existing relational model. Quite an assignment isn't it ?
The database does and will not contain XMLTYPES, only plain RDBMS tables.
Are you aware of a framework/product or tool to do what DBMS_XMLSTORE does but with any format of XML file ? If not, I am doomed.
Constraints : Input via XML files defined by third party
Storage : relational database model with hundreds of tables and thousands of existing queries that can not be touched. The model must not be altered.
Target : get this XML into the database on a daily basis via an automated process.
Cheers.
Luc.

Luc,
your Doomed !
If you would try something like DBMS_XMLSTORE, you probably would be into serious performance problems in your case, very fast, and it would be very difficult to manage.
If you would use a little bit of XMLType stuff, you would be able to shred the data into the relational model very fast and controlable. Take it from me, I am one of those old geezers like Mr. Tom Kyte way beyond 40 years (still joking). No seriously. I started out as a classical PL/SQL, Forms Guy that switched after two years to become a "DBA 1.0" and Mr Codd and Mr Date were for years my biggest hero's. I have the utmost respect for Mr. Tom Kyte for all his efforts for bringing the concepts manual into the development world. Just to name some off the names that influenced me. But you will have to work with UNSTRUCTURED data (as Mr Date would call it). 80% of the data out there exists off it. Stuff like XMLTABLE and XML VIEWs bridge the gap between that unstructured world and the relational world. It is very doable to drag and drop an XML file into the XMLDB database into a XMLtype table and or for instance via FTP. From that point on it is in the database. From there you could move into relational tables via XMLTABLE methods or XML Views.
You could see the described method as a filtering option so XML can be transformed into relational data. If you don't want any XML in your current database, then create an small Oracle database with XML DB installed (if doable 11.1.0.7 regarding the best performance --> all the new fast optimizer stuff etc). Use that database as a staging area that does all the XML shredding for you into relational components and ship the end result via database links and or materialized views or other probably known methodes into your relational database that isn't allowed to have XMLType.
This way you would keep your realtional Oracle database clean and have the Oracle XML DB staging database do all the filtering and shredding into relational components.
Throwing the XML DB option out off the window beforehand would be like replacing your Mercedes with a bicycle. With both you will be able to travel the distance from Paris to Rome, but it will take you a hell of lot longer.

How to use error table in mapping level?

Hi all
Any one please tell me how to use error table in mapping level or how to handle the errors in mapping.
I am creating one error table in oracle but i dont know how to use it in mapping.
Thanks in advance.
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
You need to use Error Table along with the Data Rule .
Error tables are used with Logical error handlers (Data Rules). Detailed description on using data rules is explained in the following document
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/warehouse/pdf/OWB10gR2_ETLandBusinessRules.pdf
In a nut shell usage of error tables is as follows.
1. Create a data rule associate it with a table (Target table or table in which you load data).
2. Use the table in a mapping as target table.
3. Deploy the table and mapping.
Now in the target schema one more table will be created with the name <target table name>_ERR. When a mapping is executed the data which violates the data rule gets into this error table.
The following has to be done to have error table name of customers choice.
1. Right click on the table and click configure.
2. Give the table name in "shadow table name" section.
3. Deploy the table.
4. Use this table in a mapping. Now in the mapping on this table properties in "Error Table Name" section the name of the table specified in "shadow table name" will be populated.
Thanks,

Why we use crmd_link table ........?

Hi,
I am new bee in CRM. I am doing my first program in crm . Can any one explain me why we use CRMD_LINK table.
Why we pass guid in guid_hi and get guid_set ? what is diffrent between them ?
Help will be rewarded ...
Regards
Gurprit Bhatia

A CRM transaction (e.g. contract) data info is not contained in a single table. We need to use different tables for the same.
guid_hi and guid_set are used for different categories of data like partner info, billing info, etc.
Some numeric ids are there for guid_hi and guid_set
Using help, u can find out which id stands for which category of data.

How to use nested table types with XDK

Im using Oracles XDK (xml development kit) to create xml-documents from data in database.4
Problem: I need to use nested tables but when trying to create nested table types I get error: A Table type may not contain a nested table type or VARRAY.
Hope I make myself clear! Are there any solutions or workarounds to this problem?
Help appreciated, thanks!

Jesper,
I asked similar question last year (search for Tapsell, you will see my posting). Under 8.1.7 the "nesting" seems restricted to one level down. Thus you cannot create a type using another object that itself includes a nested table. Under Oracle 9, against which most current examples seem based, this limitation is removed making things easier. Under 8.1.7 the workaround I have used is to use the CAST syntax. This is not as neat, but it works.

Tree walking using two tables

in order to create parent-child relationships, we need to use two tables because some children can have two parents and all parents have more than one children.
this makes tree walking by using the "connect by prior" difficult. has anyone run into something similar and what is the solution?
tia

If you try to run a hierarchical query, using START WITH,
CONNECTY BY, and PRIOR on a sub-query that contains a join
condition, or on a view that was created using a join condition,
you will get "ORA-01437: cannot have join with CONNECT BY". One
way to get around this problem is to create a new table from the
tables that need to be joined, then run the hierarchical query
on the new table.
For example, first create the new table:
CREATE TABLE new_table AS
SELECT old_table1.column_a, old_table2.column_b
FROM   old_table1, old_table2
WHERE old_table1.column_c = old_table2.column_d;
or if you are doing a self-join:
CREATE TABLE new_table AS
SELECT x.column_a, y.column_b
FROM   old_table1 x, old_table1 y
WHERE x.column_c = y.column_d;
Then, run the hierarchical query:
SELECT     column_a, column_b
FROM       new_table
START WITH column_a = 'whatever'
CONNECT BY PRIOR column_b = column_a;If you could post your table structure, some sample data, and a
sample of the desired result, some of us could probably provide
a more specific solution.
Having multiple parents should not create a problem unless the
relationship creates a loop, like if A is a parent of B and B is
a parent of C and C is a parent of A.

Showing total of PRICE using 3 tables PROBLEM, please help URGENT??

Hi i am trying to calculate the order total in my database for a given order number.
I need to use 3 tables for this:
customer table:
CREATE TABLE customer
     (custid NUMBER(5),
     last VARCHAR2(30) CONSTRAINT customer_last_nn NOT NULL,
     first VARCHAR2(30),
     mid_initial CHAR(1),
     cadd VARCHAR2(30),
     town VARCHAR2(30),
     city VARCHAR2(30),
     postcode VARCHAR2(10),
     dphone VARCHAR2(10),
     ephone VARCHAR2(10),
     CONSTRAINT customer_custid_pk PRIMARY KEY (custid));
orders table:
CREATE TABLE orders
     (orderid NUMBER(8),
     orderdate DATE CONSTRAINT orders_orderdate_nn NOT NULL,
     methpmt VARCHAR2(10) CONSTRAINT orders_methpmt_nn NOT NULL,
     custid NUMBER(5),
     ordersource VARCHAR2(20),
     CONSTRAINT orders_orderid_pk PRIMARY KEY (orderid),
     CONSTRAINT orders_custid_fk FOREIGN KEY (custid) REFERENCES customer(custid),
     CONSTRAINT orders_ordersource_fk FOREIGN KEY (ordersource) REFERENCES           ordersource(ordersource));
And finally orderline table:
CREATE TABLE orderline
     (orderid NUMBER(8) CONSTRAINT orderline_orderid_nn NOT NULL,
     invid NUMBER(10) CONSTRAINT orderline_invid_nn NOT NULL,
     order_price NUMBER(6,2) CONSTRAINT orderline_order_price_nn NOT NULL,
     quantity NUMBER(4) CONSTRAINT orderline_quantity_nn NOT NULL,
     CONSTRAINT orderline_pk PRIMARY KEY (orderid, invid),
     CONSTRAINT orderline_orderid_fk FOREIGN KEY (orderid) REFERENCES orders(orderid),
     CONSTRAINT orderline_invid_fk FOREIGN KEY (invid) REFERENCES inventory(invid));

INSERT INTO ORDERs VALUES (1057, TO_Date('05/29/2001 12:00:00 AM', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM'), 'CC', 107, '152');
INSERT INTO ORDERLINE VALUES (1058, 11824, 15.99, 1);
Here is my code:
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;
DECLARE
v_odNum NUMBER(8):= &sv_orderNum;
v_price NUMBER(7,2);
v_quantity NUMBER(5);
v_fname VARCHAR2(30);
v_lname VARCHAR2(30);
v_add VARCHAR2(30);
BEGIN
SELECT first, last, cadd, order_price, quantity, SUM(order_price * quantity) AS TOTAL
INTO v_fname, v_lname, v_add, v_price, v_quantity
FROM customer c, orders o, orderline ordl
WHERE c.custid = o.custid AND o.orderid = ordl.orderid
AND v_odNum = o.orderid
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('The total order for' ||v_odNum|| ' '|| 'is' || TOTAL);
END;
Is there anyway of using the SUM function so that i can store the result in a variable and display it similar to the ouput code??
P.S sorry for the length coding, but there is no code tage in the thread that i can see to make it more managable.

A procedure with an OUT parameter which returns the total order cost should work.

Update table a columns using columns from table b (values of 2 columns of table b need to taken from table c)

Guys,
I need to update table A columns col3, col4, col5 and col6 by table b columns col3, col4, col5 and col6 however table b col5 and col6 values need to come from table c col1.
Means table b col5 and col6 have values in it however i need to replace them with value from table c col1 and need to update table a col5 and col6 accordingly.
table a and table b has col1 and col2 in common.
i am trying something like this.
Update a
a.col3 = b.col3,
a.col4 = b.col4,
a.col5 = (select col1 from table_c c where c.col2=b.col5),
a.col6 = (select col1 from table_c c where c.col2=b.col6)
from table_A a inner join table_b
on a.col1=b.col1 and a.col2=b.col2
can someone help me reframe above update query?
thanks in advance for your help.

Try the below:(If you have multiple values, then you may need to use TOP 1 as commented code in the below script)
create Table tableA(Col1 int,Col2 int,Col3 int,Col4 int,Col5 int,Col6 int)
Insert into tableA values(1,2,3,4,5,6)
create Table tableB(Col1 int,Col2 int,Col3 int,Col4 int,Col5 int,Col6 int)
Insert into tableB values(1,2,30,40,50,60)
create Table tableC(Col1 int,Col2 int,Col3 int,Col4 int,Col5 int,Col6 int)
Insert into tableC values(100,50,30,40,2,2)
--Insert into tableC values(200,50,30,40,2,2)
Insert into tableC values(100,60,30,40,2,2)
Select * From tablea
Update a Set
a.col3 = b.col3,
a.col4 = b.col4,
a.col5 = (select col1 from tablec c where c.col2=b.col5 ),
a.col6 = (select col1 from tablec c where c.col2=b.col6 )
from tableA a inner join tableb b
on a.col1=b.col1 and a.col2=b.col2
--Update a Set
--a.col3 = b.col3,
--a.col4 = b.col4,
--a.col5 = (select Top 1 col1 from tablec c where c.col2=b.col5 Order by c.Col1 asc),
--a.col6 = (select Top 1 col1 from tablec c where c.col2=b.col6 Order by c.Col1 asc)
--from tableA a inner join tableb b
--on a.col1=b.col1 and a.col2=b.col2
Select * From tablea
Drop table tablea,Tableb,TableC

XMLType table Core Dump using CLOB

I've created an object based XMLType table based on a valid XML Schema. The Schema has an element which has been declared as a CLOB.
<xs:element name="complete_entry" xdb:SQLType="CLOB" xdb:SQLName="complete_entry"/>
This registers ok with Oracle and the object that this element is in shows the element as a CLOB as expected.
However when performing a insert into this table, SQLPlus gives and end-of-communication error and the server core dumps.
A PL/SQL function retreives an XML file from the file system for insert, here is the code for the function:
create or replace function getClobDocument(
filename in varchar2,
charset in varchar2 default NULL)
return CLOB deterministic
is
file bfile := bfilename('DIR',filename);
charContent CLOB := ' ';
targetFile bfile;
lang_ctx number := DBMS_LOB.default_lang_ctx;
charset_id number := 0;
src_offset number := 1 ;
dst_offset number := 1 ;
warning number;
begin
if charset is not null then
charset_id := NLS_CHARSET_ID(charset);
end if;
targetFile := file;
DBMS_LOB.fileopen(targetFile, DBMS_LOB.file_readonly);
DBMS_LOB.LOADCLOBFROMFILE(charContent, targetFile,
DBMS_LOB.getLength(targetFile), src_offset, dst_offset,
charset_id, lang_ctx,warning);
DBMS_LOB.fileclose(targetFile);
return charContent;
end;
The function is called like so:
INSERT INTO boss_contracts
VALUES(XMLTYPE(getCLOBDocument('contract_82.xml','UTF8')));
This works perfectly when the element is declared as a string and Oracle converts it to a varchar2(4000), but core dumps when it is a CLOB.
I need this element to be able to handle more than 4k of data.
please help,

Need to merge a csv file using external tables into a main table

Hi,
I have a csv file which contains the date(with time stamp), column1(number),column2(number), column3 (number). I am using external tables concept to load the data froom csv to this external table and then merging into the main table. Problem here is : the csv file is a system generated file and nothing can be edited under it. our aim is to automate this process of loading data from csv to the table. In this csv the date time stamp is not in the proper format.I mean the date is not visible and only minutes and seconds are visible.By changing the format in csv manually this can be overcome.but we donot need any manual intervention.
how can i overcome this problem ?? please help mee...

please format your sample data giving header to the column so that we can make sense out of the values, also since the minutes and seconds are only given, what is the date to be considered for records to be moved to the master table, sysdate or will the date be passed as a parameter?

Join two xmltype table using Xquery

I am wondering how to join two xmltype tables in xml db database. both tables are schema based object-relational tables.
these are the examples:
academicProgram table contain batch of academicprogram.xml entries
<academicProgram>
<listOfCourse>
<course><id>1</id></course>
<course><id>2</id></course>
</listOfCourse>
</academicProgram>
course table contain all the course entries, each of them is an xml file based on the the course schema. for example,
course1.xml
<course>
<id>1</id>
<title>xxxxxxx</title>
<description>xxxxxxxxxxxxxx</description>
</course>
I used the following xquery code to merge the detailed course information from course table to the academic program information
select *
from XMLTable(
for $program in ora:view("HTU", "ACADEMICPROGRAM")
return <academicProgram xmlns="http://www.mdanderson.org/schema/APEP/courseCatalog"
     for $node in $program/academicProgram/node()
     return if (name($node) eq "listOfCourse")
          then (
               <listOfCourse>{
               for $i in $node/course
               for $j in ora:view("HTU", "COURSE")/course
               where $i/id eq $j/id
               return $j
               }</listOfCourse>
          else $node
     </academicProgram>
it did return what I want, but the problem is it take more than 5 minutes to finish. is there someway to make it run faster? I have been struggling for a week, please help.
thanks in advance.

Need of aggregated dimension to use summary tables

Hi,
I have two fact tables workdetail and worksummary. Worksummary is aggregated to month in time dim and workdetail is at timedim day level.
Now i configured my business model with timedim and work detail table.( created a hirerchy for time dim (year-month-day)). Now i want to use worksummary tables, how do i include this in my business model. I know creating new Logical Source and mentioning levels.
My major doubt is do i need to create another physical table for Time-Month? or can i use same time dim physcial table to use with summary fact tables?

the answer to your question is YES, To use aggregated summary tables, we need to have aggregated dimensions. Other wise data will be redundant and will return incosistent values.
In your case if you use the same timedim-day level table with summary tables, data will be multiplied by 30 days beacuse of time-dim monthkey will be repeated in multiple rows.
simplest solution is create view from Time_Dim table, select distinct year,month,monthkey. this view returns only unique year-months. so each month will have only one row.
-> import view in your physical layer and create a join with summary fact table.
-> Include the month table(which is view) in logical time_dim as another source,mention the levels.
-> and include your fact table in logical fact table and mention the levels to month of time dim
this will work. Let me know if i am not clear. Also we can wait for other experts comments.

I want to update Last_paymt_dt and Last_paymt_amt of table2 using Table1, I have written following update statement but it gives error that single row subquery return multiple row.
Update Table2
set (Last_paymt_dt,Last_paymt_amt) = (select max(payment_date, payment_amt) from table1
where table1.Serial_no = table2.Serial_no group by payment_amt)
kindly suggest how should i update.

Need advice for using Tempory tables

Hi,
I am soort of expert in SQL programming using MS SQL and SYBASE. But I am new in ORACLE.
In SQL SERVER, using tempory tables are very simple. But it seems very different in ORACLE.
1. Can I use create several different temp tables in a stored procedure?
2. Dose the temp table has to be named as Temp_tablename?
3. After executing the stored procedure, will those temp tables disappear automnatically? Should I manually clean them up?
Thank you for help in advance.
Karl

1. Yes. You need to use Dynamic SQL within your PL/SQL code to issue any DDL command.
2. You can name those temp tables whatever name you want.
3. You need to issue "DROP table XXX" command to remove those temp tables. Why not use PL/SQL table within you PL/SQL code since PL/SQL is a memory construct and it will only exist during the run time of your PL/SQL code.

Hi,
Try:
select

from
ain.impl_oh_order_header ohIf that is not what you want you have to give more info about your tables, what you want etc. etc.
