Issue while Passing Values to Variable Dynamically in ODI

Hi All,
We are trying to pass values to ODI variable dynamically. The value passed is File path. We are successfully able to achieve this when we are passing the relative path i.e. ‘..\demo\xml’ but while we are trying to pass the absolute path i.e. ‘D:\ODI\oracledi\demo\xml\’ we are getting the below given error in the Load step of the interface..

Googling for the same has yielded the following results :-
• if the file name has : in it then ODI will consider it as a binding variable rather path. .. So try relative path. – Relative Path is working but we need to achieve this by giving absolute path.
• make sure you are using LKM File to SQL rather SQL to SQL. – We have tried by 3 different LKMS—File to SQL, SQL to SQL and SQL to Oracle but the error is same in all.
Any pointers regarding the same will be very helpful.
Thanks In Advance.
Regards,
Abhishek Sharma

Hi Cezar,
Thanks for the response. The issue here is we are picking this path from a table. We have FILE_PATH column in one database table and in ODI variable we have given SQL query as 'Select FILE_PATH from tablename'. Then we are taking the refresh value of this variable and passing it on to our interface.
If the Path in table is given as relative path it works , else for absolute path it doesnt work. How can we achieve the solution recommended by you in this case. The FILE_PATH value in table may change, so we need to pick the file from whatever path it fetches from the select statement. Hence we cannot hard code it here.
Please suggest.
Thanks Again.
Regards,
Abhishek Sharma

How to pass values to variables in WAD 7.0 using java script

Hi.,
My requirement is based on WAD 7.0.
The sales value has to displayed in WAD using graph with various chart types.
I have created variables for plant and material group in a query.
I have created drop down box for plant with all plants in it, check box for material group and a Submit button in WAD in FORM tag of HTML coding.
Once all the values are set in drop down box, checkbox and if the user clicks on submit button, the values has to captured by the variables for which I have created and the graph has to be aligned to the new values in variables.
Kindly help me how to use java script to get the values from FORM and pass it to variables.
Regards,
Selva

Hi Selva,
You do not need to use Javascript for this. Instead you can achieve this by using API Commands in WAD 7.0.
Please configure Action on the ButtonGroup webitem to use 'Commands'.
->Choose Command 'Set Variables Values / SET_VARIABLES_STATE' under Commands for Web Templates
->Set Display Variable Screen setting to OFF
->Choose Query Variable for Plant, Select Variable Type as 'Binding Type', Binding Type as 'Data Provider Selection', Data Provider as the one you have assigned to the Dropdown webitem, Characteristic as 0PLANT or as that assigned to the Dropdown webitem
->Repeat above steps for Query Variable Material Group
Now when you make a selection from the Dropdown webitems, the Chart output will change accordingly. Let me know if this helps.

Passing a Date variable to SQL

Hi,
I am trying to pass in a Date variable into SQL query, but I am getting this error:
"inconsistent datatypes: expected DATE got NUMBER"
and my code looks like this. I would appreciate any help on how I need to create the Date variable that SQL would accept it.
THANKS A LOT!
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yy");
String txt = "01/01/1990";
java.util.Date startYear2 = (java.util.Date) formatter.parse(txt, new ParsePosition(0));
java.sql.Date startYear = new java.sql.Date(startYear2.getTime());
String txt2 = "12/31/1990";
java.util.Date endYear2 = (java.util.Date) formatter.parse(txt2, new ParsePosition(0));
java.sql.Date endYear = new java.sql.Date(endYear2.getTime());
String scoredGoalsQuery = "SELECT count(name) from player_goal_rel where name = '" + pName + "' and pdate BETWEEN "+ startYear +" and "+ endYear;
ResultSet scoredGoalsResult = stmt.executeQuery(scoredGoalsQuery);

You should be using prepared statements.
String scoredGoalsQuery = "SELECT count(name) from player_goal_rel where name = ? and pdate BETWEEN ? and ?":
PreparedStatement pstmt = connection.prepareStatement(scoredGoalsQuery);
pstmt.setString(1, pName);
pstmt.setDate(2, startYear);
pstmt.setDate(3, endYear);
ResultSet scoredGoalsResult = pstmt.executeQuery();

How to swap column values using variable in sql?

Hi,
I have a table and i want to swap two column values using variable
please help me

Hi,
Let us assume that the DeptNAME and DeptNo columns are of type VARCHAR2. However, DeptNO column is VARCHAR2(10) and DeptNAMe is VARCHAR2(100).
First of all DeptNo column needs to be modified to be 100.
i) ALTER TABLE DEPT MODIFY DEPTNO VARCHAR2(100);
Secondly, you will swap DEPTNAME and DEPTNO values using the SQL as follows:
ii) update dept t1
set deptname = (select deptno from dept2 t2 where t1.deptno = t2.deptno),
deptno = (select deptname from dept2 t2 where t1.deptno = t2.deptno);
Now, finally you want the deptname columns to be VARCHAR2(10)
iii) ALTER TABLE DEPT MODIFY DEPTNAME VARCHAR2(10).
If DEPTNO is a NUMBER column, you cannot alter the datatype unless the table is empty; in that case the whole swapping requirement would be moot.

How to import values from txt and pass values to variables

I need to export some variables from Indesign and import them in Illustrator. I can export a txt file from InDesign but I don't know how to import and pass the values to variables in Illustrator.
Can someone help?

Well from you ID script Im presuming that you are simply writing a few lines of info to a plain text file like so…
writeFile('SomeData');
writeFile('AnotherData');
writeFile('LastData');
function writeFile(info) {
     try     {
          var log = File('~/Desktop/ID_Data.txt');
          log.open('a');
          log.write(info + '\r');
          log.close()
     catch (e) {
          alert(e);
So you would just read this back where or when ever you need to use it in your Illustrator script…
var log = File('~/Desktop/ID_Data.txt');
log.open('r');
var a = log.readln();
var b = log.readln();
var c = log.readln();
log.close();
alert(a);

Call function, pass value, access variable in movieclip class from main stage

i am new to flash as.
I got quite confused on some problems. as the function here
is quite different from c and asp.net.
I have a movieClip named MC, and it's enabled with action
script, with the class name MC_Rectangle
and a Stage.
I override the MC_Rectangle class file in a mc_rectangle.as
external file.
here is the code:
package{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
public class MC_Rectangle extends MovieClip {
var sequence:int = new int();
function setSequence(data:int):void{
sequence = data;
function addSequence():void{
sequence ++;
I have new a object in the main stage var
mc_rect:MC_Rectangle = new MC_Rectangle()
question:
in main stage:
1. how can i access the variable "sequence" in "mc_rect"
2. how can i pass parametre from main stage to mc_rect via
function setSequence(data:int)?
3. how can i call the function in addSequence() in mc_rect.
in asp.net, i usually use mc_rect.sequenct,
mc_rect.setSequence(data), mc_rect.addSequence() to achieve my
goals......
btw, can function in mc_rect return out result to main stage?
thanks in advance.

Your as-file must be named MC_Rectangle.as (same upper/lower
case as in the Class name)
Ad 1) You have to declare sequence as a public property
"public var sequence;" or - better - define a getter-function for
sequence.
Ad 2) mc_rect.setSequence(8); e. g. (you must write "public"
in the Class-declaration of setSequence)
Ad 3) mc_rect.addSequence(); e. g. (you must write "public"
in the Class-declaration of addSequence)
... and yes, your methods can return a value: Replace "void"
with the proper data type (int, String, ...) and place a "return
myNumber;" or the like in the method's body.

Passing values to anonymous pl/sql block error

Hi,
I have update_table.sql sql script which updates the table MST_TOT. The sql script is being called from
unix shell script in loop with 2 parameters values. 1. str# 2. rtl#.
e.g. The shell script will call 5 time sql script with different str# and rtl#.
update_table.sql
DECLARE CURSOR cur_qty IS
SELECT
COL1,
COL2
FROM MST_DTL
WHERE
     AND STR = &1
     AND RTL = &2;
l_COL1 NUMBER;
l_COL2 NUMBER;
BEGIN
OPEN cur_qty;
LOOP
FETCH cur_qty INTO l_COLtrans_dt, l_COL1, l_COL2;
EXIT WHEN cur_qty%NOTFOUND;
UPDATE MST_TOT
SET item_total = l_COL1
WHERE str_num = &1
AND rtl_co_num = l_COL2
END LOOP;
CLOSE cur_qty;
COMMIT;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
ROLLBACK;
END;
Problem: It completes first sql call and terminates with following error.
old 32:      AND STR = &1
new 32:      AND STR = 40
old 33:      AND RTL = &2
new 33:      RTL = 12
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SP2-0042: unknown command "48|12|" - rest of line ignored.
Any suggetion?
Thanks in advance!!
Dip

At first sight I miss the semicolon at the end of your update statement:
UPDATE MST_TOT
SET item_total = l_COL1
WHERE str_num = &1
AND rtl_co_num = l_COL2;Additionally there may be a problem with your &-variables.
If the columns/values are of varchar type you should put them into quotes inside your code:
e.g.
AND STR = '&1'

Passing shell script variable to sql file by reference (bind variable)

Hi All,
I need to import around 50 files every 15 minutes into my target table.
I am using shell script and call procedure to do transform.
I used crontab to do this automate task.
Here is my shell script and sql file:
shell script:
#!/bin/sh
export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.4.0
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin
find /path_rawfile/rawfile -iname raw\*.in > myfile.lst
nfile=1
while [ true ]
do
read iFile #read a line
if [ $? -ne 0 ] #Break if EOF
then
break
fi
#$PATH/sqlplus -s /NOLOG @load_raw.sql $iFile
#/bin/mv -f $iFile /path_rawfile/rawfile/done/
done < myfile.lst
sql file:
connect test/test@evn1
set serveroutput on
variable filename varchar2(50)
begin
:filename := '&1';
exec my_tranform(:filename);
dbms_output.put_line(:filename);
end;
exit;
Even I used bind variable pass to procedure my_transform...
But when i query in sys.v_$sqlarea, the :filename:='&1' still hard parse to sqlarea.
One filename one statement and keep increasing ..
Could everyone help me to change it to bind varialbe(soft parse)?
I would like to incresae my database performance.
Thanks in advance.

It is the procedure.
It's my fault.
Here is my SQL file again:
conn test/test@evn1
variable filename varchar2(500);
exec :filename:='&1';
exec my_transform(:filename);
exit;
I call this sql file from shell script and call in loop due to i need to load all file one time.
Once i use <<EOF it raise error that's why when I deleted it.
Anyway, what I need to do here is to use bind variable (soft parse).
Since I need to load around 50 files every 15 minutes.
exec :filename:='&1'; this statmet have found hard parse in v_$sqlarea.
I would like to change this to bind varialbe.
Thanks again for your help.

Passing Session State Variables to SQL query

Hi,
I am using 3 pages in my application build by APEX 3.1.2. Login Page, Report Page and Form Page.
I am using LDAP authentication for Login Page and I want the user session information to be feeded to the filter query
being used to display data on Report Page. Is there any way to do that. I know
there is one variable %LDAP_USER% which is using the userid given on login
page. But I dont know how to use APEX session variables to filter query. Need
assistance on that stuff.
Thanks,
Gaurav

Hi Gaurav,
Session "variables" (global items, application items and page items) can be accessed using v('ITEM_NAME') (for strings) or nv('ITEM_NAME') (for numbers) within sql queries/procedures/triggers etc.
If you look at the Substitution Strings section here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10513_01/doc/appdev.310/e10499/index.htm#S you'll find more information about this and a list of items that you can use that are set by Apex itself.

Passing values and calling PL/SQL process via a column link

Hello all
I have a report and a link on one of the columns which takes you to another page and passes data from the report to that page. That all works fine. In addition to picking up the details from the report I'd also like the link to call a page process before it goes to the next page using some of the values picked up from the report. This I can get to work by changing the link to a URL and putting in some javascript ie javascript:doSubmit('TEST_PROCESS'); By doing this I "lose" the ability to pass the info from the report via the link.
Can anyone give me a clue as to how I can achieve both please? I'm assuming I'll need to create my own javascript function but I don't know how to pick up information from a row in a report to pass on.
Regards
Helen

Lets say your link would pass 2 items P1_ITEM and P1_ITEM2 to your process. Just write a quick javascript function to do this and put it in the header:
<script type="text/javascript">
function doSomething(pValue1,pValue2){
$s('P1_ITEM',pValue1);
$s('P1_ITEM2',pValue2);
doSubmit('TEST_PROCESS');
</script>This will set 2 hidden items equal to whatever you pass in. Then you can use these in your after-submit process. To call this from your url, just make the url:
javascript:doSomething(#COL1#,#COL2#);#COL1# and 2 being your report columns. This should do what you need i think

Pass value text variables

Hello

Not able to pass values to variables in extended Tree class

I have a as class that extends from Tree, additionally this
custom class defines

Though my 'list' collections is not null, when i place an

it shows as null.
Please advice.

Hope this gives an idea.

Passing Global Variable in Sql Object

Hi
How can i pass my global variable into SQL object? I tried to pass it but then I tried to update the schema it giving me the error at varble
Please advise me

The Update schema is used only to get the structure for the Output.
Once you have a valid structure and the SQL Parses without any variables use the syntax for applying variables as in any Script within DI.
$GV_MyVar enclosed within square brackets will be replaced by Value of the variable.
$GV_MyVar enclosed within curly brackets will be replaced by Value of the variable enclosed in single quotes.
When the job runs, the variables will be replaced with values OR values with quotes. It is at this time, the SQL send to the database is validated for syntax.
Therefore, you will not know the validity of your SQL with Global Variables until you run the job.
Hope this helps!
Thanks & Regards
Tiji
