Pipelined function solution
Good Morning
Can anyone help me to get started writting a pipelined function to convert a table like this
Name Period start Period End
Smith 3 5
Smith 7 10
Smith 12 16
into a table tike this
Name Periods
Smith ooXXXoXXXXoXXXXXooooo
or may be there is a simpler way of doing this?
Thanks
David Hills
There's more to this problem than simple column concatenation. There is some processing reuired to fill the gaps between the start and end points of the periods.
The following code takes a blunt instrument approach: pipelined function and bit masks. Perhaps some of the brains on this forum can come up with a more elegant approach. The function does, at least, have the virtue of working:
SQL> select * from table( timelines)
2 /
NAME TIMELINE
Jones oooXXXXXooXXoooooooXXXXX
Smith ooXXXoXXXXoXXXXXoooooooo
SQL>Note that this code is very much a "coffee time" proof of concept, and contains a number of infelicitous repetitions. Improving this code is left as an exercise for the reader.
Cheers, APC

Turning sql string (with dynamic columns) into a pipelined function
Hi guys,
I was working on an apex report the other day, and wrote the sql below (for those who don't know apex well, in an apex report you can define the columns at runtime.) When I was finished, I said to myself: "It would be great to have a pipeline function with this capability." So, the idea would be to have a sql string where the columns are created dynamically, depending on input parameters - and then be able to use this sql everywhere (oracle reports, sqlplus) through a pipelined function.
Here's the sql (simplified, of course, the data itself is actually not important - the LOOP is the key)
declare
v_sql varchar2(4000);
begin
v_sql := 'select client, ';
for i in (select employee from company_employees_view where condition = pi_parameter order by 1) loop
v_sql := v_sql || sum(decode(employee,''' || i.employee || ''', total)) "' || i.employee || '"';
end loop;
v_sql := v_sql || ', sum(total) "Total"';
v_sql := v_sql || ' from company_employees_view group by client';
end;
This sql would result in a final product like:
select client
, sum(decode(employee,'John',total) "John"
, sum(decode(employee,'Paul',total) "Paul"
, sum(decode(employee,'George',total) "George"
(and so on... this sql could have more or less columns depending on the input parameters of the function)
from company_employees_view
group by client;
I have tried feeding this sql into a ref cursor and an object, but always received an "inconsistent datatypes" message.
The object would be something like:
create or replace object rt_employee as (total number);
create or replace tt_employee as table of rt_employee;
create or replace object rt_client as (
client varchar2(100),
employee tt_employee);
create or replace tt_client as table of rt_client;
(I am not paying too much attention to syntax here.)
By the way, no hurry whatsoever, this is just for fun, take your time. I am using database XE with apex 2.1 and sql developer 1.2.
Thanks, RogerThis is the only solution I've ever seen to dynamic pipelined columns...
How to pipeline a function with a dynamic number of columns? -
Tabular forms based on pipelined functions - can it be done?
Hi there,
Pipelined functions are great, specially when you want to encapsulate the access to tables instead of just SELECTing from them (what I am doing a lot in my current project.)
However Apex 4 does not like them, at least not for tabular forms...
I want to handle myself the update/insert/delete process, so I don't need the MRU default functionality (all the access to the data is via APIs). But at the same time I want to just SELECT from my pipelined function and set the item types using the builder interface as with any tabular form (without having to use the apex_item API). Also I want to be able to use tabular form validation.
To start with, you can only create a tabular form based on a table or view. To overcome this issue, I created a dummy view with the fields I wanted and created my tabular form on it. Then I changed the FROM clause to FROM TABLE(myfunction). It didn't work as it seems it tries to select the ROWID for each row... Of course my pipelined function doesn't return one but I don't need one anyway as I will be doing the data manipulation myself based on the PK.
For this to work, I had to create a collection, populate it with the result of the pipelined function in a page process every time the page is loaded, create a view on that collection and base the tabular form on the view... A lot of work and overhead for something that should be very simple in principle.
Then, I found out that if I remove the default MRU process that is automatically created, the tabular form validations stop working (as I posted in another thread). So I have to leave a "dummy" MRU process there with condition = never for it to work.
The application I am working on is all based on API calls and pipelined functions so all this work has to be repeated for each tabular form that is needed.
If it was possible to base a tabular form directly on a pipelined function it would be such an elegant solution.
Is there a better way to implement this? Shouldn't Apex be more compatible with pipelined functions? (at least in regards to tabular forms, they work well with normal forms, reports, LOVs etc)
Thanks
LuisAs I mentioned before, I don't handle inserts (well, I cheat).... On my page, there is a form to set up a request - prompts for a few things, and when submitted, calls a stored procedure:
:P2_REQUEST_RESULT := Simon.Apex_Campus_Guest.Setup_Request(:P2_GROUP_NAME,
:P2_COAS_ORGN, :P2_START_DATE, :P2_END_DATE, :P2_Quantity, :P2_Generic_Names);
Which creates an APEX collection, which in turn is made visible via a pipelined function turned into a view:
create or replace view Apex_Campus_Guest_Request_va as
select seq_no,
user_name,
group_name,
comments
from table ( Apex_Campus_Guest.Request_Result )
I have a second region which is tabular form on a query - conditional on select 1 from Simon.apex_campus_guest_request_va (the view defined above).
When this submitted, I have standard MRU and MRD processes (Seq_No is the primary key). This then runs into the appropriate trigger - the update trigger is as follows:
trigger Apex_Campus_Guest_Req_Upd
instead of update on Apex_Campus_Guest_Request_va
for each row
declare
cg_rec campus_guest_maint.rec;
begin
cg_rec := Campus_Guest_Maint.Request(
name => :new.user_name,
group_name => :new.group_name,
comments => :new.comments);
end;I don't know off hand why it isn't asking for a rowid - but may be that I specified a PKEY column. The insert case fails, as it tries to add a "Returning" statement in the original select. I actually find that annoying as a function is defined to allocate the PKEY from a sequence, so it doesn't need to ask for it that way. -
Pipelined functions with spatial data
hi,
i've been trying to use pipelined functions (using the TABLE and CAST operators to query data from them) to retrieve large amounts of spatial data.
i've followed the examples on metalink, and they work fine. my problem arises when i apply similar functions to query data using SDO_FILTER, i've been trying to pipe a mdsys.sdo_geometry datatype (ref cursor) into the function - returns null.
are spatial datatypes supported for use in pipelined functions, and using the table and cast operators?
if they are, where can i find further reading/reference on the subject?
thanks

Interactive Report using a View with a Pipelined Function
Hello fellow Apex people,
I'm Using Application Express 4.1.0.00.32
I've got an interactive report that references a view (STOCK) and a pipelined function
The basic query is listed below.
SELECT S.CHANGED_TIME "Changed Time"
, S.CHANGED_BY "Changed By"
, S.ID "Id"
, STKST_DESCRS.STOCK_STATUS_CODES "Stock Status Codes"
, STKST_DESCRS.STOCK_STATUS_DESCRS "Stock Status"
, S.ORIGINAL_CONTAINER "Original Container"
FROM STOCK S
, table(LWS_StkstStatus (S.ID)) STKST_DESCRS
ORDER BY S.CO_ID,
S.SEQUENCE_NUM;
When the page is first run all the data is displayed correctly,
If I define a filter, sort or a blank search the data from the pipelined function (STKST_DESCRS.) becomes null and isn't displayed.
Does anyone know what is happening?
Many ThanksI'm curious why you find this dangerous. I want a report that looks like this:
Opportunity X:
4 - 2-apr-2008 - Closed deal
3 - 1-mar-2008 - Called Joe again
2 - 12-feb-2008 - Called Joe
1 - 14-jan-2008 - Initial call with customer.
When you enter a new note, I want it to be numbered 5. The only problem I can imagine is someone deleting a note, which will almost never happen, and if it does, it just leaves a numbering gap. I don't see how using the function in a SELECT will accomplish this. -

Pipelined function with lagre amount of data
We would like to use pipelined functions as source of the select statements instead of tables. Thus we can easily switch from our tables to the structures with data from external module due to the need for integration with other systems.
We know these functions are used in situations such as data warehousing to apply multiple transformations to data but what will be the performance in real time access.
Does anyone have any experience using pipelined function with large amounts of data in the interface systems?It looks like you have already determined that the datatable object will be the best way to do this. When you are creating the object, you must enter the absolute path to your spreadsheet file. Then, you have to create some type of connection (i.e. a pushbutton or timer) that will send a true to the import data member of the datatable object. After these two things have been done, you will be able to access the data using the A3 - K133 data members.

How do you pass parameters to a Pipelined function?
I am using Oracle 10G and the ODP .NET 32 bit client.
I am facing an issue trying to use variable binding with a pipeline function in Oracle. I am using ODP .NET for connecting to the database.
If you want to be familiar with PIPELINED functions, you can read [this blog.|http://oradim.blogspot.com/2007/10/odpnet-tip-using-pipelined-functions.html]
I have very similar code with a difference. My function takes in two parameters that I need to pass to get the table. This is working in SQLPLUS without any issues.
In my C# code, however things change. My function no longer returns a recordset (data reader), if I use the standard method of assigning the parameters.
The code will work if I concat the variables in a string.
Here is the example that doesn't work.
static OracleDataReader fetchData(OracleConnection oc, string strPONumber)
try
OracleCommand od = oc.CreateCommand();
od.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.Text;
od.CommandText = "select * from table(pkg_fetchPOInfo.getPORowsTable(:1,:2))";
OracleParameter op1 = new OracleParameter();
op1.ParameterName = "1";
op1.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Varchar2;
op1.Direction = System.Data.ParameterDirection.Input;
op1.Size = 7;
op1.Value = strPONumber;
od.Parameters.Add(op1);
OracleParameter op2 = new OracleParameter();
op2.ParameterName = "2";
op2.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Varchar2;
op2.Direction = System.Data.ParameterDirection.Input;
op2.Size = 3;
op2.Value = "US";
od.Parameters.Add(op2);
OracleDataReader or = od.ExecuteReader();
return or;
catch (Exception e)
Console.WriteLine("Error " + e.ToString());
return null;
}Here is the example that does.
static OracleDataReader fetchData(OracleConnection oc, string strPONumber)
try
OracleCommand od = oc.CreateCommand();
string formSQL = "Select * from table(pkg_fetchPOInfo.getPORowsTable('"+strPONumber+"','US'))";
od.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.Text;
od.CommandText = formSQL;
OracleDataReader or = od.ExecuteReader();
return or;
catch (Exception e)
Console.WriteLine("Error " + e.ToString());
return null;
}throw it into an anonymous block and it should work for you.

Pass multiple values as single input parameter into pipelined function
Hi all,
My need is to pass multiple values as single input parameter into pipelined function.
For example - "2" and "3" are values of input parameter "t":
with data as (
select 1 as t from dual union all
select 2 as t from dual union all
select 3 as t from dual union all
select 4 as t from dual union all
select 5 as t from dual
select * from data where t in (2,3)Is it possible at all?Not exactly sure, but usually 'multiple values'+'pipelined function' = some IN-LIST related approach?
See:
SQL> create table data as
2 select 1 as t from dual union all
3 select 2 as t from dual union all
4 select 3 as t from dual union all
5 select 4 as t from dual union all

ORA-22905 with pipelined function
Hi,
I have a strange behaviour that I do not understand.
The code below does not work. It gives me the following errors:
ORA-22905: cannot access rows from a non-nested table item
ORA-06512: at line 10
ORA-06512: at line 19
The problem comes from the line 14 in that function
adm_usergroup.GET_GROUPIDS (userid_in)
If I replace the variable userid_in by its values then it perfectly works.
Can someone give me an explanation ?
The adm_usergroup.GET_GROUPIDS (userid_in) is a pipelined function that querry a group of tables and return IDs which are number.
A call to the function works fine as using it directly in a select statement.
Cheers,
Sebastien

Hi ,
I test the routines found in http://sheikyerbouti.developpez.com/recordset/record_set.htm
I have a problem in the sample routine in Forms10g regarding pipelined function.
Whereas , the whole routine database part and client side in SQL*PLUS works fine.... the client side on Forms10g does not.......
I used two versions in when-button-pressed trigger:
1)Declare
cur SYS_REFCURSOR ;
begin
Open cur for SELECT * FROM TABLE(Pkg_Cur_.Get_Raws2(CURSOR(SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE DEPTNO = 10)));
end;
The error message in compilation time is..
Error 606: The subquery cursor is invalid in the client side
and the second version is:
2)Declare
tab Pkg_Cur_.REC_EMP_;
begin
tab:=Pkg_Cur_.GET_RAWS2('SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE DEPTNO = 10');
end;whereas the database package is defined as:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE Pkg_Cur_
IS
TYPE REC_EMP_ IS TABLE OF EMP%ROWTYPE INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER ;
FUNCTION Get_Raws RETURN REC_EMP_ ;
FUNCTION Get_Raws2 ( cur_lig IN SYS_REFCURSOR )
RETURN TYPE_TAB_REC_EMP_ PIPELINED ;
END Pkg_Cur_ ;and the database package body is as follows:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY Pkg_Cur_
IS
FUNCTION Get_Raws RETURN REC_EMP_
IS
TAB REC_EMP_;
BEGIN
SELECT * BULK COLLECT INTO TAB FROM EMP ;
RETURN TAB ;
END ;
FUNCTION Get_Raws2 ( cur_lig IN SYS_REFCURSOR )
RETURN TYPE_TAB_REC_EMP_ PIPELINED
IS
Trec TYPE_REC_EMP_ := TYPE_REC_EMP_(NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL ) ;
Remp EMP%ROWTYPE ;
BEGIN
LOOP
FETCH cur_lig INTO Remp ;
EXIT WHEN cur_lig%NOTFOUND ;
-- Handling datas --
Trec.EMPNO := Remp.EMPNO ;
Trec.ENAME := Remp.ENAME ;
Trec.JOB := Remp.JOB ;
Trec.MGR := Remp.MGR ;
Trec.HIREDATE := Remp.HIREDATE ;
Trec.SAL := Remp.SAL * 1.1 ;
Trec.COMM := Remp.COMM ;
Trec.DEPTNO := Remp.DEPTNO ;
-- Return value --
PIPE ROW( Trec ) ;
END LOOP ;
RETURN ;
END ;
END Pkg_Cur_ ;
So , how the form trigger should be written...????
If somebody could help me i would be grateful...!!!!
Thanks a lot
SimonIn the second anonymous block you're trying to populate a record with a table. You would need to select from the function and either bulk collect into a table variable or fetch into a record variable in a loop. Bulk collect is also not supported on the client side.
I've been looking at pipelined function possibilities in another thread:
table functions
The problem you have is actually with the Cursor functions, not the Pipelined functions. -

Thank you for your time in reading this post
RThank you Billy and Saubhik,
I have followed your guidelines and was able to resolve this error. Now, after successfully compiling the code, I attempted to execute it in a following way.
SELECT * FROM TABLE (cxs_generate_plsql_profiler);It gives following error: ORA-00904: "CXS_GENERATE_PLSQL_PROFILER": invalid identifier
I also tried putting in quotes like below
SELECT * FROM TABLE ('cxs_generate_plsql_profiler');Then, it gives following error:
ORA-22905: cannot access rows from a non-nested table item
Any Idea where I am doing wrong?
Thanks,

Thanks,

Correct question - WHAT is a pipeline table function.
If you understand WHAT it is, you will be able to determine WHEN to use it.
So have you read the documentation? Tried coding your own pipeline function? Do you understand what it is and how it works?
Maybe you are looking for
