ORDImageSignature Invalid data type in Oracle 8i

hi there,
i have just started working on Intermedia, i am using Oracle 8i. i have configured the intermedia and executed the ordwebutl.sql file. all othe media data types are working perfectly like, ORDAudio, ORDImage,ORDVideo, but the ORDIMageSIgnature is not working at all. when i use it as data type in any table it says Invalid data type. which means oracle 8i is not recognizing ORDImageSIgnature at all. plz help me as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.

The ordimagesignature is not something you can see or hear. It is strictly binary metadata about the image, used only to compare images to each other.
What are you trying to do?

Invalid data type

I have the following code working perfectly fine:
CREATE TYPE mytype IS TABLE OF INT;
SELECT * FROM TABLE(mytype(1,2));
When I declare the type in a package, however, I get invalid data type. For example,
CREATE OR REPLACE mypackage AS
TYPE mytype IS TABLE OF INT;
END mypackage;
SELECT * FROM TABLE(mypackage.mytype(1,2));
I need to include the type in a package because I have a function in the same package that will take the nested table as in parameter.

When you need to select from a type, that type has to be created as a SQL type.
This is true in SQL

Pdf file stored as BLOB data type on Oracle

I store PDF file as BLOB data type on Oracle. There are cases
where I get multiple records from the database, that means I get
multiple PDF files. They have to be merged and displayed on the web
page. I tried CFContent which can display only one PDF file at a
time but not more than one, whereas cfdocument is having problem
converting binary data to string. I am kind of stuck.
Can you anybody please help me out? Please let me know if you
have any questions or this does not make sense to you.
Thank you in advance.

if by "merge" you mean 3 pdf into 1 pdf, try cfpdf (if on
cf8) or see this
thread if cf version less than 8:

Hi,
I think you need unique ID's, for this purpose you use sequences
in Oracle. Example:
create table xy (
id number,
name varchar2(100)
alter table xy
add constraint xy_pk primary key(id);
create sequence xy_seq start with 1 maxvalue 99999999999;
(there are many other options for create sequence)
create or replace trigger xy_ins_trg
before insert on xy
for each row
begin
select xy_seq.nextval
into :new.id
from dual;
end;
This produces a unique value for the column id at each insert.
Hope this will help.

Cannot get the correct data type in Oracle JDBC

Dear ALL:
I used JDBC ResultSetMetaData to get the column data type for Oracle Database. I created a table including 2 columns AAA, which is NUMBER type, BBB which is FLOAT type.
However, I found a problem that either NUMBER or FLOAT data types are reported as NUMBER type in JDBC.
IN SQL 2000, it is okay. SMALLINT, INT, TINYINT, etc..can be reported correctly.
Can anybody tell me that what's wrong here? I will be very appreciated.

hi,
i guess its a bug which is fixed with 10i.

Bea and nvarchar2 data type in oracle

Does weblogic server supports nvarchar2 data type in Oracle?..
I use CMP with java data type String mapped to nvarchar2 data type to oracle.when
i try to create a bean it throws "java.sql.SQLException: ORA-12704: character set
mismatch". Is there any configuration in the server to set the character set?..

XML Data Type in oracle

I am a developer in .NET with having experience working on SQL server.
I want to know whether there is an xml data type in oracle.
I have an xml in my front end and want to insert record in the database for the values inside that xml. What i am doing currently is that i am retreiving the value in the xml in the .NET code and passing the values a parameter to a stored procedure in oracle. what i want to do is to pass the xml directly to stored procedure in oracle and retrieve the values there (using Xquery) and insert the records.
This is possible with SQL server 2005. I want to know is this possible with Oracle.
Thanks and regards,
Sameer J Narkar

Wonderful - a documentation question!
You will find your answer by going to the general documentation portal at http://tahiti.oracle.com following the path to the database version of interest, and looking in the SQL Reference manual. Chapter 2 discusses all data types, including the several supported for XML.
In addition, under the 'Books' tab, there are several XML-developer specific reference manuals.
(Oracle's support for XML generally blows away the others. The price for the extreme flexibility is an ease-of-use hit.)

BOOLEAN data type in oracle is it there?

is there any data type in oracle which stores BOOLEAN data?

>
There are inevitably problems with three-valued logic. To be consistent with the 3VL world of SQL one would expect a 3 value logical type (not strictly a "boolean" type at all). The standard chose not to do that and opted for just TRUE and FALSE with NULL as a sort of substitute for the third value. That in itself creates some logical conundrums but it's probably impossible to come up with any system that makes sense of SQL's 3VL. Probably that's why most DBMS vendors leave it out.
>
No problem. Just define it as NOT NULL and you will have traditional 2VL Boolean algebra.

Invalid data type conversions

what are the invalid data type conversions in ABAP ???
Moderator message: please search for available information/documentation.
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Mar 10, 2012 6:01 PM

No Amanda,
The values that I see in message monitor are also those that comes to XSLT programs as input.
I investigated our problem a little further myself:
1) XI always converts messages into XML format - this everybody knows.
2) In XI documentation it is declared that XI uses ISO 8601 for DATE type formatting. That's why you see dates in format YYYY-MM-DD in XML data in message monitoring.
3) The appearance of those decimal values are not that obvious for me. If XI uses ABAP transformation for message content then applies the rules for converting ABAP data types into XML. For this there is a SAP document 'ABAP - XML mapping' from TechEd2004. This document seems to describe how ABAP data types are handled by XML transformation.
Anyway, we currently need to play with decimal values in XSLT mapping programs inside XI:
a) add leading 0 integer if source value < 1
RFC returns 0.123 -> XI converts to XML '.123' -> XSLT mapper should return '0.123' ->SOAP response returns '0.123'
b) add decimal point and trailing zeros
RFC returns 0.000 -> XI converts to XML '0' -> XSLT mapper should return '0.000' ->SOAP response return '0.000'
With dates, the problem is actually on documenting mapping rules when writing interface specifications. If you would write an EAI-solution-independent conversion rule (RFC/date->SOAP/char) for date field it could sound like: YYYYMMDD -> dd.mm.yyyy. This works semantically between these systems but would not work for XI-developer, because he get YYYY-MM-DD from the RFC.
Additionally the decimal type conversion requirements in XSLT mapping programs probably only applies XI and are therefore not reusable in other EAI environments.
I would be glad if somebody would still have further comments for this data type conversion issue.

Data error (invalid data type 17) in a Remote Function Call

Hi,
I am passing 2 select-option tables to RFC.
Tables have structures -
   Table1 SIGN(C1)
               OPTION(C2)
               HIGH(C6)
               LOW(C6)
   Table2 SIGN(C1)
               OPTION(C2)
               HIGH(C20)
               LOW(C20)
At the destination side, I have created two table types which have same structure.
But when I call the RFC , program terminates with error - "Data error (invalid data type 17) in a Remote Function Call"
Not able to understand the reason for this error. Please help.
Thanks,
Sujeet

Hi,
check out this example
[LINK|http://abap.googlar.eu/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=28]
You have several ranges that you can use like RANGE_AUF.
Function example:

*" TABLES

*"      SL_MATNR STRUCTURE RANGE_MATNR
*"      SL_HORA STRUCTURE RANGE_UZEIT
*"      T_ERROS STRUCTURE ZARSTRING
ENDFUNCTION.

Final question:
You are passing the values using TABLES and not IMPORTING right?

....Date Type in Oracle

Hi All,
Just to clear a few misconception/ambiguities regarding the DATE data type in Oracle.
We hve a table which stores the date of insertion of a record. The front end application is in PHP while backend is in oracle.
When i query the table, it shows the date as dd-mon-yy , but it does not show the time. I have tried to query it throgh sqlPLus , TOAD and the PHP Application, but it doesnt show the time.
Is it not storing the time. The data type of the column is ( Insertdate date).
If you query sysdate, it definitly stores time, ... but what is in this case. Is it just storing the date and not the time. ???
How to alter so that it stores time as well.
Regards

U have to use the conversion function to_date to
store date along with time. No, you use to_date to convert a string to a date. That's it. A date column will ALWAYS store the time (it just won't always display it)
When u need to retrieve the data use to_char function. Not necessarily:
SQL> create table x (dte date);
Table created.
SQL> insert into x values(sysdate);
1 row created.
SQL> insert into x values(sysdate+1);
1 row created.
SQL> select * from x;
DTE
11-jul-2007 09:13:11
12-jul-2007 09:13:11
if u want to store time u can use timestamp data typeNope, You use timestamp if you want to store fractions of seconds (down to nano seconds)
The key point is. The date datatype ALWAYS stores:
Century, Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minute, Second

How to migrate SQL Server image data type to Oracle 8 BLOB data type?

Hi,
I have to migrate data from sql server to Oracle 10 g.

Iam using Oracle Heterogenous Services to migrate the data,Using Merge statement and database link.
I am getting the following error-
ERROR at line 7:
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected BLOB got LONG BINARY
Can any one suggest me how to migrate Image datatype to BLOB???

Problem loading PostgreSQL Bytea data type to Oracle Raw data type

We are migrating our database from PostgreSQL to Oracle. First, we convert the BYTEA data type in PostgreSQL to Oracle RAW. The BYTEA data type is variable bytes array. How can we load the BYTEA data type to Oracle RAW data type? Or I have to convert to different data type. thanks.
Peter,

hi,
Instead of 'interval day to second' in method declaration use internal datatype 'DSINTERVAL_UNCONSTRAINED'.
There are more unconstrained types in oracle.

Domain for data type in Oracle 8i database

Hi Sir,
Does Oracle database supports domain creation for data type.
for example, can I create a domain called shorttext which is VARCHAR2(50). Then when I specify a data type for a column in table, then I just declare the column as domain.
eg. address SHORTTEXT;
--where SHORTTEXT is a domain.
How is this implemented in Oracle database and supported by front end tools like Oracle Developer 6.0.
Hope someone can provide some clear explanation on this.
Thanks.

The ordimagesignature is not something you can see or hear. It is strictly binary metadata about the image, used only to compare images to each other.
