ORA-06504: PL/SQL: Return types of Result Set variables or query do not mat

Hello.
I am trying to assign a weak type ref cursor to a strong type ref cursor. I call a procedure that executes a query using a SYS_REFCURSOR passed in as an IN OUT argument. After the procedure executes, I assign the passed in ref cursor to a strong type ref cursor in the calling procedure. I have found that if I use a static SQL statement in the procedure, the process works, but if I use a dynamic SQL statement in the procedure, I get the error message noted in the subject.
I am running Oracle 9i on Solaris.
Thanks for any thoughts on the matter.

Thanks Bob,
The Package spec part was created successfully.
I am still confused about fetching records though.
You said that 'Select Statement will populate the ref cursor.'
But I do not have
OPEN FOR
SELECT
INTO
FROM
I simply open o_cur_var
select from several tables where........
and then I am using FETCH statement.
What's a better approach?
How should I fetch values of o_cur_var?
If I use SELECT INTO, should I use records that I declared in the package o_cur_type (..........)?

How to return two XML result sets using the function

Hi Experts,
Thanks.

So that I want to return two XML result sets if the query returns more than 50,000 records.
One XML result set with 50,000 and another XML result set with remaining records.
How to incorporate this in my function.
Have the function return a collection of CLOB then.
DBMS_XMLGEN can handle pagination so it's easy to adapt your existing code.
Here's an example fetching data in batches of max. 3 rows each, using a pipelined function :
SQL> create or replace type clob_array is table of clob;
2 /
Type created
SQL>
SQL> create or replace function genXmlRowset (p_deptno in number) return clob_array pipelined
2 is

4    doc    clob;
5 begin
6
7    ctx := dbms_xmlgen.newContext('SELECT empno, ename FROM scott.emp WHERE deptno = :1');
8    dbms_xmlgen.setBindValue(ctx, '1', p_deptno);
9    dbms_xmlgen.setMaxRows(ctx, 3);

Conversion away from column type may result in sub-optimal query plan

Hello all,
I have the following select statement in a cursor compiled in a package.
SELECT id
FROM table
WHERE TRUNC(ts) >= TRUNC(SYSDATE - p_days)
However I get 4 warnings that read:
PLW-07204: conversion away from column type may result in sub-optimal query plan
Does anyone know of a way to rewrite the query to avoid the compilation warnings?
I'm just trying to compare the date without the time...
Thanks in advance
Dan

For what it is worth, whenever you compare a date column to either sysdate or any built-in function returning a date you will get that warning.

Stored procedure that returns a cursor (result set)

Hi,
We have a stored procedure that returns a cursor (result set) but when I compliled it and catalouged (introspected) it in the OBPM I got all the primitive type parameters (either IN or OUT) in the proc call except the cursor type (the result set) which is the out param of the stored proc.
Any pointers please?
Thanks

Result set is of RowType and is not supported as a Stored Procedure as far as I know.

Hi adil,
It seems to be not related to SharePoint issue, I find a similar error post from Operations Manager forum you can take a look
Also another below article of basic troubleshooting of discovery scripts for your reference.
And for the further better assistance regarding this issue, you may want to post Operations Manager forum here.

PLW-07204: conversion away from column type may result in sub-optimal query

I have the following query in the package that created using sql developer. I am receiving the error 'PLW-07204: conversion away from column type may result in sub-optimal query plan' when try to compile the package. The issue is happen to be in the last line where the date is. Any help? Thanks
select count(*) into n_cnt

Try doing as a procedure instead of an anonymous block. It looks like warnings do not apply to blocks.

In this case, you can ignore the warning, as it is not correct. Sysdate and a date column have different internal data types (note the type 13 for sysdate and type 12 for the date column), and whatever internally generates the warnings seems to just compare the type number.

How to export result set from mysql query browser to .sql in oracle

Hi folks:
I was trying to export result set from MySql query browser to Oracle. I could able to do
File->Export Result Set-> Excel format...
What I am trying to get is .sql file so that I can run it as a script in my oracle db. Is there any way we can get .sql file with inserts and delimeters ....?
Did you guys get my question.?
Please throw some light on this....
Could be very appreciable ....
Thanks
Sudhir Naidu

Hi
Create a sql statement which generates the insert statements.
Something like this:
select 'insert into table1 (column1, column2, column3) values (' ||
column1 || ', ' || column2 || ', ' || column3 || ');' from table 1;
The || sign is the string concatenation sign in Oracle, replace it the appropriate sign in MySql. Export the result set of this query into a file, and you can run it in a SqlPlus.

Virtual column in the result set of the query.

Hi folks,
I have table , let it be, EMP. It has columns ENAME,EMPNO,JOB etc.,
My requirement is to add an extra column, not present in the table, having NULL value at the time of diplaying the results of a query. I hope you got it. So a column that does not exists in the table should get displayed in the resultant set when we query the results from that table. so my question is, how to write the SELECT statement using that virtual column.
I'd thought of using X column in Dummy table but what if I don't have any dummy table in my particular schema.
Please do revert back with the solution.
Your effort'll be genuinely appreciated.
Cheers
PCZ

Hi,
If you just wany display null values you can write query like this :
SELECT ENAME,EMPNO,JOB , NULL DUMMY_COLUMN FROM emp;

Hi @all
i created a small table
CREATE TABLE my_sal201 (
grafikdid VARCHAR2(38) NULL,
grafik BLOB NULL,
mimetype VARCHAR2(255) NULL
then i inserted one column with a page process
BEGIN

after that i want to show the columns and the image in a report. so i created a report in a new region quite similar to the example in the obe
it works fine, the image columns is shown as "[datatype]"

Can I pass parameters to a subquery to return a narrow result set?

Hi-
HERE'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO DO:
Create a worksheet to aggregate the data that's returned from a subquery result set based on the user's specified date ranges.
HERE'S MY PROBLEM:
Discoverer is aggregating the data FOR EACH PARTICULAR DATE that shows up (ie-6/1, 6/2, 6/3) instead of across the entire specified date range (ie- 6/1-6/3) because the date parameters can only be applied to the main query instead of the subquery.
In essence, I need to:
SELECT location1, task1, sum(product1), max(product2)
FROM
(SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE date1 >= userSpecifiedDate1 and date1 <= userSpecifiedDate2)
GROUP BY location1, task1
...but using Discoverer's "Parameters" and "Totals" tool, so far I can only get Discoverer to do this :
SELECT location1, task1, sum(product1), max(product2), sum(product3)
FROM
(SELECT * FROM table1)
WHERE date >= userSpecifiedDate1 and date <= userSpecifiedDate2
GROUP BY location1, task1
Is there any way to apply date parameters to the subquery first so I'm aggregating across the range and not on each date?
Hope this makes sense. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Hi,
Yes.
You can pass parameter from search criteria to procedure.
First u need write a method in the AmImpl java class to call the procedure.
Like
public void callingProcWithinParams(String sreachCriterParam)
//pass the parameter to proc
Then shuttle this method to client interface.

Your reference to NS.REQDATE is too deep. Oracle will only allow you to reference a column from the main query one level deep.
I think you can just change that query into this:
(Select AVG(((cpath.REQUESTDATETIME)- NS.REQDATE)*1440) AvgTime
FROM usersessiondetails cpath
Where cpath.Userkey=(Select Userkey from ods_user where userid=NS.UserId and namespace=NS.Namespace)
   and cpath.acctnum=aCCTNUM
   and cpath.transactionname IN (AUTH_LOGOFF' )
   and cpath.REQUESTDATETIME = NS.REQDATE )You do not need the extra query level to do the AVG.

How to Colour the fields in the Result Set of the query

Hi all,
I am having a requirement wher the user want to view the queries results with some colour to the char in the result set.
suppose customer is the row he want to view some customers with one color and some with different color.
Is it possible in Bi.
If so Plz let me know
Regards

Hi Priya,
for the macro thing, you will have to create a workbook and store your query into it, because macros are attached to only workbooks and not queries.
in the workbook screen (i.e. excel), go to tools --> Macro --> Visual Basic Editor. or simply press Alt + F11. this will take you to macro editor screen.
you can use code that may look something like below to color the columns, you can also give constant column if they are fixed.
sub ColorColumns(rngTarget As Range, _
    intColor As Integer)
Dim c As Long
    With rngTarget
        .Interior.ColorIndex = intColour
        Next c
    End With
End Sub
You will find some easy and short snippets for this.
Regards,
Purvang
