Patterns to execute a SQL Statement from a Droplet (select)

Hi,
I need to perform a query on a table, Example: select * from ARF_QUERY "the database used is Oracle. I would like to know if the atg has some
standard method to perform this database connection and execute the SQL statement from a Droplet (select).
Thank.

I dont think there is any generic droplet to run a select query directly against a table.
However, there are various lookup droplets available that run on the repositories.
Like /atg/targeting/RepositoryLookup droplet. you can run it for specific id or for all.
You might want to have a look at it in documentation of how exactly to use it.
Thanks

Executing multiple sql statements from a single sql file

Hi, I am Vijay Krishna.
I want to drop user, drop tablespace, create tablespace and create user from a single executable file or a single sql file. The command should be in sequence. How can we achieve it? Can I anybody help me in this regard. I want this as soon as possible. It's urgent. Kindly post a reply.
Also, how can we know the oracle home directory from a java program? The problem is we should know the Oracle home directory and use it for creating the tablespace. In the userinterface we will give just for a new database user creation. I will be really thankfull if anybody can help me in this regard.

It is showing any error messages.
I will diplay the entire batch file which we are using.
sqlplus / as sysdba
drop user examination cascade;
drop tablespace examination;
create tablespace examination
datafile 'C:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\orcl\examination.dbf'
size 500M autoextend on;
create user examination identified by examination
default tablespace examination
quota unlimited on examination;
grant connect, resource to examination;
exit;
when i run the batch file from the DOS prompt it is entering into the sql prompt and coming out in a fraction of a second. We are just seeing a screen coming and going. But no error messages are being displayed.
first we thought that as we are giving the create tablespace and create user in the same file we created another file and tried without having the create commands. Even then the user didn't get dropped.

How can I execute Dynamic SQL statement in Forms?

Hi All,
I have to execute dynamic SQL statement from Forms
Below statement I have to execute
"EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_stmt INTO v_return;".
Googled for the same got results saying, Better use Database function or procedures to execute these Dynamic Statements but We want to execute in forms only.
Can any one help me..
Thanks,
Madhu

So in short you are trading code obfuscation for maintainability and the ability to share code between tools? If from somewhere else you need a procedure already implemented in database PL/SQL (and now ported to forms) this would mean you'd need to implement it in every other tool. In times where you might want to integrate your forms with $other_technology and putting stuff on the database is the first step to share functionality you just go the opposite way? And all that because someone is afraid that somebody might steal your source code? I am sorry to be blunt, but this is just plain stupid.
Leaving aside that some things like Analytic Functions, Bulk processing or execute immediate are not even available in forms your software consists of how many LOC? How long does it take to bring a new developer up to speed with your source code? Imagine how long that would take for a developer who doesn't have coleagues who know their way around.
And just so you know: I work for a ISV selling a closed-source product as well. We have 200+ customers all over the planet. We are well aware that wrapped packages can be reverse engineered. The premise is: stored procedures can be reused in every tool we have, if it makes sense to put stuff on the database by all means do it. If someone would want to reverse engineer our software I'd wish him good luck as some parts are implemented in such a hilarious complicated way I have troubles understanding them (and quite frankly I refuse to understand certain parts, but that's another story). I do work for almost 10 years for that ISV.
In any case the possible solutions have already been mentioned: you have exec_sql, create_group_from_query and forms_ddl to execute dynamic SQL in forms whereas forms_ddl is a one way street and most certainly not the thing you need or want. Take a look at the documentation for the other 2 things.
cheers

How could I extract past executed SQL statement from dictionary ?

We use oracle11gR2 on win2008R2.
How could I extract the past executed SQL statement from dictionary ? (Is it possible from V$SQLTEXT or other dictionary table ?)

IvicaArsov wrote:
Hi,
You can find executed SQL in V$SQLAREA view (if it's still in memory). If it does'n't exist and you have AWR enabled you can query DBA_HIST_SQLTEXT table, but remember that the statistic information in AWR tables is filtered (1 out of 10).
I.Arsov
As you know when taking snapshot oracle will capture only top sql statements and stored in AWR.
But can you please link(source) dba_hist_sqltext contain only 1 out of 10 filtered data?. In dba_hist_active_sess_history yes it contain 1 out of 10 sampled data.

Exec SQL statement from BW to MS SQL

Hi Experts,
I need to execute sql statement from BW on MS SQL Server.
I want to do it in process chain. There is a so called ABAP Program Component.
How to implement such a program or function module that will execute on MS SQL Server an sql statement such as for instance:
"Create view SOME_VIEW as select * from XTABLE".
I have already configured database connection using DBCO transaction.
Waiting for response.
Krzysztof

Thanks, but that is not what I was asking for.
I just need to send some SQL statement from BW to MS SQL Server using ABAP program (exec sql or something like this).
Could you provide me a pattern of such an ABAP program?
The sql statement is not importent here, I have already extracted data from MS SQL to BW, I have configured dataflow, process chains and so on.
No I need to determine DELTA on MS SQL Server. I've got some ideas but I need to know how to send SQL statement from BW to MS SQL Server using ABAP program.
Please any help will be appreciated

How to store data into database by reading sql statements from text file

how to write java program for storing data into database by reading sql statements from text file

Step 1: Create a property file to add various queries.
Step 2: Read the properties file using ResourceBundle
Step 3: Use the jdbc to execute the query read from the property file.
So in future if you need to change query no need do any modifications in java program. But depends on how you use the property file.

SQL statement from ST05

Hi All,
Please let me know how to retrieve the SQL statement from ST05 output or how to know what is the field
browsed and what was the input in SE16 from ST05.
Thank you.
With Regards,
Gandhi Subramani

Hi,
Go to ST05.
(1)- Activate Trace.
(2)- Run the desired T-Code for which you want to do the SQl Trace.
(3)- Go to "ST05" and deactivate Trace.
(4)- Then Press Display Trace.
(5)- Then POP will come. Just press Execute.
(6)- Your SQL trace will be displayed, with the table names and the Field names and the logic which is retevering data from specific table.
Thanks

Executing multiple SQL statements fails using ODBC

Executing multiple SQL statements will fail with error 'ORA-00911 invalid character' when connecting to an Oracle database using ODBC driver version 8.01.07.00.
When I use either my application or the Oracle ODBC Test client utility connecting using ODBC driver version 8.01.07.00 I can only get a single CALL statement (as shown below) to execute:
CALL BHInsert (TO_DATE('2003.07.23 10:04:28','YYYY.MM.DD HH24:MI:SS'),'BATCH_ID','1:CLS_FRENCHVANILLA-1','
','Event File

When I try to execute the following string with multiple CALL statements (as shown below) it fails with the following error being returned - ORA-00911: invalid character

Shepard','','AREA1',' ',' ','','','','1','','','','','',' ','');
I've tried adding a line feed in addition to the space at the end of each call but that doesn't seem to help. Also have tried unsuccessfully to change the seperator used between each call using various valid continuation characters.
Executing multiple CALL statements from within Oracle's SQL Worksheet connecting as the same user and password, as my application executes successfully. However when I try this from within the Oracle ODBC test client, it fails with the same ORA-00911 error that I'm seeing in my application.
I'm currently trying the more recent ODBC drivers, however any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can you take the begin ... end block and run it using SQL*Plus?
I can't think of any documentation that would specifically answer this question. I'm sure if you read & absorbed the ODBC Programmers Reference (2000+ pages) you'd be able to find out, but I don't know of a quick way to find out.
You can enable SQL*Net tracing. There are a fair number of options for enabling this tracing-- http://tahiti.oracle.com has all the Oracle manuals online, which should give you enough info to configure exactly what you want.
I would suggest, however, that you look into more performant/ scalable alternatives rather than going too far down this path. A block with lots of SQL statements with literals isn't going to make your database happy even if you get it to work.

Execute Different SQL Statements Based On Day of Week

I need to execute different sql statements based on the day of the week in Oracle 8i. In SQL Server, it's pretty simple. SELECT
CASE DATEPART(dw,GETDATE())
WHEN 4 THEN (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ADR_VLDN )
END
In Oracle it should be something like this
IF to_char(SYSDATE, 'D') = 2 THEN
SELECT * FROM RSVP_FILE_PRCS WHERE ROWNUM = 1;
ELSEIF to_char(SYSDATE, 'D') = 3 THEN
SELECT * FROM RSVP_FILE_PRCS WHERE ROWNUM = 2;
END IF;
But this doesn't work. Does anyone have any ideas about how to do this in Oracle?

How to execute multiple SQL statements thru frontend?

With SQL Server database, you can execute multiple SQL statements.
Ex.
SQLCommand cmd = new SQLCommand();
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM EMP; SELECT * FROM DEPT";
cmd.ExecuteXXX();
Note that for SQL Server, ";" (semocolon) is used as a separator.
What separator is required for Oracle ? Or rather, can I execute multiple SQL statements against Oracle database (10g) ?
(Why I want to do it is a totally diff. subject !)
Thanks,
Ami.

Hello,
You could use an anonymous PL/SQL block to batch multiple statements.
If you want to use SELECT statements, you would open a REF CURSOR for each SELECT and return the REF CURSOR to your application. INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements can just be passed as is.
A simple REF CURSOR example might look like:
begin
open :v_refcursor1 for select * from emp;
open :v_refcursor2 for select * from dept;
end;Where v_refcursor1 and v_refcursor2 are parameters defined as a REF CURSOR type.
Hope that helps a bit...

Execute the sql statement stored in table

friends i m in complication that, how can i execute sql statement which is stored in database table.
how can i fetch that particular statement from table and make it execute!!!
Thanks in advance

I think we should stop at this point and have a little think.
My understanding is that your plan is to do the following
-Execute a Dynamic SQL statement which is constructed from values in several columns in a table (Bad idea to begin with)
-The result of the execution is then loaded into PL/SQL.....not sure how you are handling different column lists but I'll assume you are not having to convert every column value to a VARCHAR2
-The values returned are then used in an INSERT statement
So basically your goal here is to take some data from one table and insert it into another table by moving data from SQL to PL/SQL then back to SQL in an elaborate, dynamic way. This is a costly waste of resources and will not scale (this is before we get to the problem of having to read the SQL statement from a table in the first place)
I would recommend looking the INSERT SELECT statement here: http://psoug.org/reference/insert.html
This will get the job done in one go. If you really do need it to be dynamic (which you don't, trust me) then you can still store this statement in your "dynamic SQL" table and execute it using EXECUTE IMMEDIATE although I can say for sure that you're going to run into more problems down the line with this architecture, it won't scale very well, and you'll probably waste at least *1* day of your time every week trying to fix a bug caused by the removal of a table, change to a column name etc.......
However if you believe that storing SQL in a table is the best solution to your problem then go ahead.....at least when you find out that it isn't you'll have learned a valuable lesson.

Extracting SQL statement from a Webi document's data provider using SDK.

Hi all,
Is it possible to extract the SQL statement from an existing Webi document's data provider using BO SDK? I've searched through the class library but haven't found any information on this yet. If you have done it, could you provide some guidance. Many thanks.

I found the following Java code that might be of some help to you. I realize you are using .NET but this might push you down the right path.
The trick here is to use the Report Engine SDK to get the DataProvider of the DocumentInstance. Then, look at the SQLDataProvider to get your SQLContainer.
My apologies for the poor formatting. This didn't copy and paste over to the forums very well. I've cleaned up as much as I could.

How to execute a .sql file from a batch file

Hi all
I've to take backup of a database weekly twice on every wednesday & Friday @ 5pm IST. I've written a hot backup script, which works every well.
now i want to automate the script. ie i want this script to run on wednesday & friday @ 5pm without any human interfearance ie with out actually any1 executing this script.
i created a batch file prod.bak with the following lines
@echo off
set oracle_sid=testdb
set oracle_home=d:\oracle\ora92
sqlplus /nolog
connect sys as sysdba/oracletest@testdb
this batch file when eexecuted connects me to sql prompt.
Now i want to execute my backup script bkp.sql automatically when it is connected to sql prompt.
(i tried with these lines in the above batch file...
call bkp.sql---it just opens the bkp.sql file in notepad & displays the script
start bkp.sql---same as call
connect / as sysdba/pwd@[email protected] --- does not work simply remains a the sql prompt.
At 17:00 /Every:w,f "d:\bkp.sql"---does not work simply remains at the sql promt.)
Can any1 let me know what should i write in the batch file that will execute the bkp.sql file automatically after it gets connected to sql prompt. M using oracle 9i.
I'll manage he time through windows utility of scheduling task.. Let me know how to execute the .sql file from a batch file.
Thanks
Tripti

Try
sqlplus "sys/oracletest as sysdba" @bpk.sql
Working locally, and having set the ORACLE_SID, you don't need to specify the SqlNet alias (@testdb).
Remember to put an exit at the end of the bpk.sql script.

How Can I Retrieve SQL Statement From The User ?

Hi
I want to know, how can I make the user can enter the SQL statement from himself ?? in this code he can't enter it. Only he can display the SQL that i wrote it...
this is my Code:

public class db_testing {
     static final String DRIVER = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
     static final String DATABASE_URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/S204111933";

          Connection cn=null;
          Statement st= null;
          ResultSet rset=null;
          try{
               Class.forName(DRIVER);
               cn=DriverManager.getConnection(DATABASE_URL, "root", "admin");
               st=cn.createStatement();
               rset=st.executeQuery("select * from employee");
               ResultSetMetaData metadata=rset.getMetaData();
               System.out.println("The begining: ");
               for(int i=1;i<=metadata.getColumnCount();i++)
               System.out.print(metadata.getColumnName(i)+"\t");
               System.out.println();
               System.out.println();
