Order of tables in the form clause influences query performance? (ora 9i)

Hi,
I have a SQL select with 5 tables in the 'from' clause. On Oracle 9i (and 8i too) if I user a certain table order (bigger tables first, smaller tables last) the query executes fast. If I change the order, then it executes in slow motion. I use cost based optimizing.
I thought it was just Oracle 8i where I had to take into account such things when writing a query. Does some one know the cause for this? I

And, even in 10GR2, if the optimizer_mode is changed to CHOOSE (the default is ALL_ROWS), the optimizer defaults to RULE based:

Is it possible to create a view where table in the From clause changes name

is it possible to create a view from a from a table like this
create view my_view as select id, col1, col2, result from <<my_latest_cacahe_table>>;
the table in the from clause changes the name .
I have another table which indicates the the latest name of my cache tables. Always there are two records there. The latest one and previous one.
select * from cache_table_def
table_name cache_table_name refresh_date
my_table cache_table245 1/23/2012
my_table cache_table235 1/22/2012
create table cache_table_def (table_name varchar2(25), cache_table_name varchar2(25), refresh_date date);
insert into cache_table_def values( 'my_table','cache_table245','23-jan-2012');
insert into cache_table_def values ( 'my_table','cache_table546','22-jan-2012');
create table cache_table245 (id number, col1 varchar2(50), col2 varchar2(20), result number);
insert into cache_table245 values(1, 'test123', 'test345',12.12);
insert into cache_table245 values (2, 'test223', 'test245',112.12);
create table cache_table235 (id number, col1 varchar2(50), col2 varchar2(20), result number);
insert into cache_table235 values (1, 'test123', 'test345',92.12);
insert into cache_table235 values (2, 'test223', 'test245',222.12);
what I need to do is find the latest cache_table name for my_table and use that in my view defintion
When user select from the the view it always reurns the data from the latest cache_table
is it possible to do something like this in oracle 11g?
I have no control on the cache tables names. that is why I need to use the latest name from the table.
Any ideas really appreciated.

I've worked up an example that does what you ask. It uses the SCOTT schema EMP table. Make two copies of the EMP table, EMP1 and EMP2. I deleted dept 20 from emp1 and deleted dept 30 from emp2 so I could see that the result set really came from a different table.
-- create a context to hold an environment variable - this will be the table name we want the view to query from
create or replace context VIEW_CTX using SET_VIEW_FLAG;
-- create the procedure specified for the context
- we will pass in the name of the table to query from
create or replace procedure SET_VIEW_FLAG ( p_table_name in varchar2 default 'EMP')
as
begin
dbms_session.set_context( 'VIEW_CTX', 'TABLE_NAME', upper(p_table_name));
end;
-- these are the three queries - one for each table - none of them will return data until you set the context variable.
select * from emp where 'EMP' = sys_context( 'VIEW_CTX', 'TABLE_NAME' );
select * from emp1 where 'EMP1' = sys_context( 'VIEW_CTX', 'TABLE_NAME' );
select * from emp2 where 'EMP2' = sys_context( 'VIEW_CTX', 'TABLE_NAME' )
-- this is how you set the context variable depending on the table you want the view to query
exec set_view_flag( p_table_name => 'EMP' );
exec set_view_flag( p_table_name => 'EMP1' );
exec set_view_flag( p_table_name => 'EMP2');
-- this will show you the current value of the context variable
SELECT sys_context( 'VIEW_CTX', 'TABLE_NAME' ) FROM DUAL
-- this is the view definition - it does a UNION ALL of the three queries but only one will actually return data
CREATE VIEW THREE_TABLE_EMP_VIEW AS
select * from emp where 'EMP' = sys_context( 'VIEW_CTX', 'TABLE_NAME' )
union all
select * from emp1 where 'EMP1' = sys_context( 'VIEW_CTX', 'TABLE_NAME' )
union all
select * from emp2 where 'EMP2' = sys_context( 'VIEW_CTX', 'TABLE_NAME' )
-- first time - no data since context variable hasn't been set yet
SELECT * FROM THREE_TABLE_EMP_VIEW
-- get data from the EMP table
exec set_view_flag( p_table_name => 'EMP' );
SELECT * FROM THREE_TABLE_EMP_VIEW
-- get data from the EMP2 table
exec set_view_flag( p_table_name => 'EMP2');
SELECT * FROM THREE_TABLE_EMP_VIEW
For your use case you just have to call the context procedure whenever you want to switch tables. You can union all as many queries as you want and can even put WHERE clause conditions based on other filtering criteria if you want. I have used this approach with report views so that one view can be used to roll up report data different ways or for different regions, report periods (weekly, quarterly, etc). I usually use this in a stored procedure that returns a REF CURSOR to the client. The client requests a weekly report and provides a date, the procedure calculates the START/END date based on the one date provided and sets context variables that the view uses in the WHERE clause for filtering.
For reporting it works great!

I want to get the data of a table inside the Form but it is not passed

I want to get the data of a table inside the Form but it is not passed to the form by tables parameters.
How can I do this.
Regards

If there is a problem with defining it globaly, you can define a field symbol globably and point to it. For example. It would probably be better to define your table globably.
report zrich_0003 .
field-symbols: <imarc> type marc_upl_tt.
start-of-selection.
perform get_data.
*       FORM get_data                                                 *
form get_data.
data: imarc type table of marc with header line.
select * from marc into table imarc up to 10 rows.
assign imarc[] to <imarc>.
perform write_data.
endform.
*       FORM write_data                                               *
form write_data.
data: xmarc type marc.
loop at <imarc> into xmarc.
    write: / xmarc-matnr, xmarc-werks.
endloop.
endform.

How to specify the type of table in the form parameters

How to specify the type of table in the form parameters. for example, how to specify the type of table "vacancies".

Hi
Are you asking about subroutine program to declare a variable for perform statement etc
if it so check this coding
DATA: NUM1 TYPE I,
NUM2 TYPE I,
SUM TYPE I.
NUM1 = 2. NUM2 = 4.
PERFORM ADDIT USING NUM1 NUM2 CHANGING SUM.
NUM1 = 7. NUM2 = 11.
PERFORM ADDIT USING NUM1 NUM2 CHANGING SUM.
FORM ADDIT
       USING ADD_NUM1
             ADD_NUM2
       CHANGING ADD_SUM.
ADD_SUM = ADD_NUM1 + ADD_NUM2.
PERFORM OUT USING ADD_NUM1 ADD_NUM2 ADD_SUM.
ENDFORM.
FORM OUT
       USING OUT_NUM1
             OUT_NUM2
             OUT_SUM.
WRITE: / 'Sum of', OUT_NUM1, 'and', OUT_NUM2, 'is', OUT_SUM.
ENDFORM.
If your issue is some other can u explain me clearly

Forms Designer - Unable to remove Child Table from the form

Hello,
While testing adding additional attributes, I have assigned an additional child table to the form. However I am not able to remove it. I get an error message: "This version has been made active. Add/Update/Delete not allowed."
I tried creating new version and making it active to remove 'active' status from the form I modified, but still getting the same error. What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance.

creating new version and making it active to remove 'active+'
Make new version then remove child form and then make version active..
You are making version active b4 removing child table.
Don't change the sequence which I have written above.

Possible to find the Table behind the form

My question is Is it possible for the DBA to find the table behind the form.
actually when i input the data from front end i want to know how can i found which table as updated.

behind the form.Form as in front-end GUI sort of thing? Most DBAs of my acquaintance wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry at such a request. Seeing as how it confirms all the prejudices at the cluelessness of developers.
The short answer is No. That's why we are supposed to document our applications. However, if you get a sympathetic DBA they might be prepared to track your session and find out what SQL you're issuing. It's then a question of co-ordinating your Form usage with what they see in the database.

UPDATE using a second table for the Where Clause

Hi There,
Hoep someone can help me!
I am attempting to update a field in Tbl.1 to a known value. However, i want to use another table to specify WHICH records to update.
in this case i want to use table early_provider to obtain the value 'HCR' then pass that to the UPDATE clause in order to SET early_provisions.type_name = 'HOMC'
I hope this makes sense.
UPDATE EARLY_PROVISIONS eps
SET TYPE_NAME = (SELECT *
FROM EARLY_PROVIDER ep
WHERE PROVIDER_TYPE = 'HCR'
WHERE EP.PROVIDER_ID = EPS.PROVIDER_ID);
I need to be able to include the field value 'HOMC in this statement but am not sure how, or if i am barking up the wrong tree.
Much appreciated in advance

Thanks. this seems to only update 15 rows of which already exist in the table early_provisions and filed type_name!
I should be selecting about 200 recordsd from early_provider that have the provider_type = 'HCR'
??I don't know your data. So i cant answer that. But for what you asked i think thats the correct UPDATE statement. So i think you have to investigate your data to find what is going on.

Purchase Order : printing table in the SAPScript.

Hi all,
        I want to print taxes in the PO . I have created SAPScript from the standard Script MEDRUCK & also attached it to the Appln - EF, in the T-Code : NACT.
        To pass the taxes i have written a code and that program i have called from the script. But, it is only the last entry in the internal table (it_out). I want to print all the taxes for the respective PO. And, the only last one tax entry in the it_out , it is showing in the print preview for 'Domestic PO', and, for 'Import PO', it is not showing any entry.
        Plz, try to solve this problem.... if anybody could give me the proper solution of this problem, i will definitely reward the points to him.

Hi,
System will not display the Purchase order item details in the first screen. First enter the data on the Item overview like Material or short text then only it will display the Item details.
I think you are checking with out entering the data on Item overview .

Updating large table using the WITH CLAUSE or PLSQL

I tried to perform an update on a table with over 15million records using the merge statement below but it's very slow.
Can someone help me re-writting this statement using the WITH CLAUSE or a PLSQL statement that will make it run faster?
my merge statemet:
MERGE INTO voter dst
USING (
SELECT voterid,
pollingstation || CASE
WHEN ROW_NUMBER () OVER ( PARTITION BY pollingstation
ORDER BY surname, firstnames
) <= 1000
THEN 'A'
WHEN ROW_NUMBER () OVER ( PARTITION BY pollingstation
ORDER BY surname, firstnames
) BETWEEN 1000 AND 2000
THEN 'B'
ELSE 'C'
END AS new_pollingstation
FROM voter
) src
ON (src.voterid = dst.voterid)
WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE
SET dst.new_pollingstation = src.new_pollingstation

thanks.

Well, here's your query formatted for people to read...

                                       THEN 'B'
                                     ELSE 'C'

JSP, DataWebBean: How to dynamically set the where clause of query and display record

Hi,
I am reposting this question as per suggestions made by Mr. Dwight.
I have used ViewCurrentRecord web bean to display records from EMP table. I have to use the Dept_Id_FK from the current
record of the EMP table to display corresponding records of Dept table. I have a view object called DeptView in my Business
Components which selects all the records from the Dept table.
How do I get the value of Dept_Id_FK and use it to display the required records of the Dept table?
I tried to declare a variable and get the value of Dept_Id_FK but it did not work. My code is as follows:
<%! String m_DeptId = null; %>
<jsp:useBean id="RowViewer" class="oracle.jbo.html.databeans.ViewCurrentRecord" scope="request">
<%
RowViewer.initialize(pageContext, "EMPApp_EMP_EMPAppModule.EMPView1");
RowViewer.setReleaseApplicationResources(false);
RowViewer.getRowSet().next();
m_DeptId = (String)RowViewer.getRowSet().getCurrentRow().getAttribute("DeptIdFk");
%>
</jsp:useBean>
Thanks.

First of all, Thank you very much for making use of the new topic format. It is very much appreciated.
As for your question, I think there are several different ways to accomplish what I think you want to do.
1. Create a view object that includes both Emp and Dept entities and join them there. In this case, your query would look something like this:
Select e.empno,e.name,...,d.dname,d.loc from emp e, dept d
where e.deptno = d.deptno
You should be able to create a JSP off of this view object that contains both the employee and department information. In this case, BC4J takes care of the foreign key to primary key coordination.
2. In order to set a dynamic where clause for a view, you need to do the following in your usebean tag:
rsn.initialize(application,session, request,response,out,"DeptView");
rsn.getRowSet().getViewObject().setWhereClause("deptno=" | | m_DeptId);
rsn.getRowSet().getViewObject().executeQuery();
rsn.getRowSet().first();
You will need to do this in a separate usebean tag from the EmpView, since the usebean can only initialize one view object.
In other words, you would have your ViewCurrentRecord bean tag for the EmpView, then a separate one for the DeptView where you use the above code to set the where clause to display just the information for the department you want.
Another option, but one I'm not sure would work as well, is to create a master-detail JSP to do this for you. Usually a master-detail is a one-to-many (one department to many employees). Your request appears to be the reverse, but might still be doable using the same mechanism.
You set up relationships between views in your BC4J project using View Links. If you used the BC4J project wizard and created default views, some of these links may have been created for you. They are created when BC4J detects a foreign key to primary key relationship in the database.
You can create your own View Links using the View Link wizard. Select your BC4J project node and choose Create View Link... from the context menu. You will be asked to select a source view (Emp), and a target view (Dept), then select the attribute in each view that related the two of them (deptno).
Next, you need to reflect this new relationship setting in your application module. Select your app module and choose Edit from the context menu. On the data model page, select the EmpView node in the Selected list. Now select the DeptView node in the available list and shuttle it over. You should see DeptView1 via yourlink appear indented under the EmpView node. Save and rebuild your BC4J project to reflect the changes.
In your JSP project, you can now have the wizard create a master-detail form for you based on DeptView1.
Let me know if the above answers your question, or if I have misunderstood what it is you wanted to do.

hi
Use the BOX command
Syntax:
/: BOX [XPOS] [YPOS] [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [FRAME] [INTENSITY]
Effect: draws a box of the specified size at the specified position.
Parameters: For each parameter (XPOS, YPOS, WIDTH, HEIGHT and FRAME), both a measurement and a unit of measure must be specified. The INTENSITY parameter should be entered as a percentage between 0 and 100.
XPOS, YPOS: Upper left corner of the box, relative to the values of the POSITION command.
Default: Values specified in the POSITION command.
The following calculation is performed internally to determine the absolute output position of a box on the page:
X(abs) = XORIGIN + XPOS
Y(abs) = YORIGIN + YPOS
WIDTH: Width of the box.
Default: WIDTH value of the SIZE command.
HEIGHT: Height of the box.
Default: HEIGHT value of the SIZE command.
FRAME: Thickness of frame.
Default: 0 (no frame).
INTENSITY: Grayscale of box contents as %.
Default: 100 (full black)
Measurements: Decimal numbers must be specified as literal values (like ABAP/4 numeric constants) by being enclosed in inverted commas. The period should be used as the decimal point character. See also the examples listed below.
this is a very time consuming task. well, hope this will help you

How do I create a dynamic table in the form for auto field detection?

I am new to Acrobat. We need to create a form template that contains dynamic table control so that it can be populated using auto field detection.
Our dynamic table contains reimbusement information, the rows vary from one claim to another.
Please help. We are having Acrobat 9 Pro.
Thanks

A lot is possible. There is a scripting language which should fill the gaps of missing features. There is data merge, there is XML, there is InCopy. Read everything about it and you will surely find what you need.

Page count in the footer of a table in the form layout

hi friends,
I just want to print the page number detaisl in the footer of the SMARTFORM .
I just dragged the values from the system folder and use it as usual.
But the values are displayed in such a manner
for sy-page of sy-printpage
gives 1 of *
2 of *
9 of *
10 of 31
11 of 31
31 of 31
But when i give the same values in a separate or in a separate text , i can get an expected result as
1 of 31
2 of 31
31 of 31
can somebody help me to solve this problem.
why it happens so , only in the footer of an table, and why the values are not printing only upto 9?
tell me some possible ways of solving this problem

Hi Kumar,
Use final window type and put your sfsy variables in that window then it will work.

Select statement having internal table in the wher clause...

Hi,
will all the entry from the internal i_crhd will be pased to the next select statement in the sample code below without looping? Thanks a lot!
REFRESH i_crhd.
   SELECT objid vgwts
     FROM crhd INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE i_crhd
     WHERE arbpl IN s_arbpl.
pulling the cost centre linked to the resource
   IF sy-subrc EQ 0 AND i_crhd[] IS NOT INITIAL.
     REFRESH i_crco.
     SELECT kostl FROM crco
       INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE i_crco
       FOR ALL ENTRIES IN i_crhd
       WHERE objid = i_crhd-objid.
     IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
      do nothing.
     ENDIF.
   ENDIF.

Hi,
The code looks fine..u can very well go ahead with the code...
Wht all other ABAPers said about FOR ALL ENTRIES is absolutely rite.
But i have a small suggestion...
Why cant u use a INNNER JOIN for those 2 queries...
like...
SELECT cr~objid
             cr~vgwts
             co~kostl
FROM crhd AS cr INNER JOIN
          crco AS co
ON crobjid = coobjid
INTO TABLE i_crco
WHERE cr~arbpl IN s_arbpl.
Now in i_crco 3 fields will be thr
objid, vgwts, kostl.....this one can change as u wish...
Why i suggest not to ue FOR ALL ENTRIES is sometimes it is a performanc killer....in this code i feel this will do fine...
Please let me know if u feel not ok with this code...
Reward if found useful...
Regards,
ABAPer 007.
