Please help me on "Bulk Collect"

Hi All,
I've a query like :
select deptno,
min(sal)
from emp;
The above query is taking some 1.2 min to return the expected result of 91k rows and taking cost of 3666.
But when i re written the query like;
select deptno,
min(sal)
from emp where deptno = :dno;
It is giving the correct result & taking very less time,but i need to get the result for all dept's without passing the deptno dynamically.
As per my knowledge i planing to create one function using "Bulk-Collect" and return the all deptno.That result i 've to use in where condition.
But when i trying to create a function i'm not able to do it.. SO can anyone help how to solve the above problem..
How to pass the entire column values in where condition using function..
Do i need to create a function or is there any other way of doing it..
Please help me...
Thanks,
gra

Hi,
I don't follow you when you say that want to get all departments and them pass them back to your query, that makes no sense to me.
If you want max salary for all departments, just:
select deptno, min(sal) min_sal
from emp
group by deptno;No function, no bulk collect no nothing, but plain SQL.

Peter

Just looking at that link and I don't think this is my problem. It says:
Bootstrapper requires certain installer components to be in place to load correctly. Otherwise, it displays the error "Installer failed to initialize. File not found. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem."
Run the Adobe CS5 Cleaner Tool and remove the product that you are going to install. See Resolve installation problems with CS5 Cleaner Tool | CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 (cpsid_82947).
But mine doesn't say "File not found" anywhere in the error message.
If it helps on my desktop when I try to install it an icon comes up for a second that looks like the dmg mounted icon with the word "core" underneath it.

Please help: How to bulk retrieve data via JDBC?

I want to retrieve great amount of data from oracle database through java/jdbc. Is that possible I can run oracle EXP.exe from java? I know I can use JNU, is it easy and reliable? Is there any other JDBC bulk fetching functions available and efficient? Thanks a lot for any help.

use TOPLINK from OracleHmmmm...
ssniazi does nothing but ask for contact information or recommend Oracle products.
Based on this I consider it likely that this person is some sort of sales representative either directly or indirectly associated with Oracle.
I personally wouldn't provide any contact information to them. Nor would I accept any advice until this person starts to actually provide some solutions or at least correctly reveals any financial interests that they might have.
In addition I believe ssniazi is in violation of the conduct code of this website because ssniazi is requesting information which will be used by a business entity without telling the users that it will be used in that way. And I expect that Oracle itself would frown on such activities.

Bulk & collection concept

Can u please explain me the bulk & collection concept ?
why we use bulk & collection ?
when to use bulk & collection ?
and performance wise which is better ?
thanks in advance

and performance wise which is better ? In PL/SQL programming the SQL part is executed by SQL Engine and PL is executed by PL/SQL Engine.
So in general any SQL statement available in PL/SQL is send to the SQL engine by the PL/SQL Engine and processed and returned back. This process of sending and getting it back is called Context Switch.
Consider the following code.
for i in (select empno from emp where deptno = 100)
loop
update emp set sal = sal*100 where empno = i.empno;
end loop; Lets consider that there are 20 employee under deptno 100. So now the UPDATE statement is executed 20 times. That is there is 20 context switch.
Introduction of bulk collect reduces this. Consider the following code.
declare
Type EmpTbl as table of number(10);
lEmpNo EmpTbl;
begin
select empno bulk collect into lEmpNo from emp where deptno = 100;
forall i in 1..lEmpNo.count
update emp set sal = sal*100 where empno = lEmpNo(i);
end; Here in the above code what i am doing is
1. Created a PL/SQL Table called EmpTbl.
2. Created a variable lEmpNo of type EmpTbl.
3. Collected all the empno for deptno = 100 into the lEmpNo.
4. Using FORALL send all the empno in the PL/SQL table to update at a single shot. By this the context switch is reduced extensively.

Thank you

It seems you are not doing a bulk insert but rather an array bind.
(Which you will also find that it is problematic to do an INSERT with a bulk collect returning clause (while this works just fine for update/deletes) :
http://www.oracle-developer.net/display.php?id=413)
But you are using array bind, so you simply just need to use a

Bulk Collect taking more time. Please suggest .

I am working on oracle 11g
I have one normal insert proc
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test2
AS
     BEGIN
     INSERT INTO first_table
     (citiversion, financialcollectionid,
     dataitemid, dataitemvalue,
     unittypeid, financialinstanceid,
     VERSION, providerid, user_comment,
     userid, insert_timestamp,
     latestflag, finalflag, filename,
     final_ytdltm_flag, nmflag , partition_key
     SELECT citiversion, financialcollectionid,
     dataitemid, dataitemvalue, unittypeid,
     new_fi, VERSION, providerid,
     user_comment, userid,
     insert_timestamp, latestflag,
     finalflag, filename, '', nmflag,1
     FROM secon_table
     WHERE financialinstanceid = 1
AND changeflag = 'A'
AND processed_flg = 'N';
     END test2;
To impove performance i have normal insert into convert it to bulk collect :
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test
AS
BEGIN
     DECLARE
     CURSOR get_cat_fin_collection_data(n_instanceid NUMBER) IS
     SELECT citiversion,
     financialcollectionid,
     dataitemid,
     dataitemvalue,
     unittypeid,
     new_fi,
     VERSION,
     providerid,
     user_comment,
     userid,
     insert_timestamp,
     latestflag,
     finalflag,
     filename,
     nmflag,
               1
     FROM secon_table
     WHERE financialinstanceid = n_instanceid
AND changeflag = 'A'
AND processed_flg = 'N';
     TYPE data_array IS TABLE OF get_cat_fin_collection_data%ROWTYPE;
     l_data data_array;
     BEGIN
     OPEN get_cat_fin_collection_data(1);
     LOOP
     FETCH get_cat_fin_collection_data BULK COLLECT
     INTO l_data limit 100;
     FORALL i IN 1 .. l_data.COUNT
     INSERT INTO first_table VALUES l_data (i);
EXIT WHEN l_data.count =0;
     END LOOP;
     CLOSE get_cat_fin_collection_data;
     END;
     END test;
But bulk collect is taking more time.

Can you please tell me the reason why bulk collect is taking more time. ? According to my knowledge it should take less time.
Please suggect do i need to check any parameter?

Please suggect do i need to check any parameter?In that case, your knowledge is flawed.
Pure SQL is almost always faster than PL/SQL.
If your Insert into Select is executing slow, then it is probably because the Select statement is taking long to execute. How many rows are being Selected and Inserted from your query?
You might also consider tuning the Select statement. For more information on Posting a Tuning request, read {message:id=3292438} and post the relevant information.

Need help with Bulk Collect ForAll Update

Hi - I'm trying to do a Bulk Collect/ForAll Update but am having issues.
My declarations look like this:
     CURSOR cur_hhlds_for_update is
        SELECT hsh.household_id, hsh.special_handling_type_id
          FROM compas.household_special_handling hsh
             , scr_id_lookup s
         WHERE hsh.household_id = s.id
           AND s.scr = v_scr
           AND s.run_date = TRUNC (SYSDATE)
           AND effective_date IS NULL
           AND special_handling_type_id = 1

     TYPE spec_handling_update_array IS TABLE OF rec_hhlds_for_update;
     l_spec_handling_update_array spec_handling_update_array;And then the Bulk Collect/ForAll looks like this:

       LOOP
        FETCH cur_hhlds_for_update BULK COLLECT INTO l_spec_handling_update_array LIMIT 1000;
        EXIT WHEN l_spec_handling_update_array.count = 0;
        FORALL i IN 1..l_spec_handling_update_array.COUNT

Can anyone please help advise me as to what I'm missing here or how I can accomplish this?
Thanks!

You cannot reference a column inside a record when doin a for all. You need to refer as a whole collection . So you will need two collections.
Try like this,
DECLARE
   CURSOR cur_hhlds_for_update
   IS
      SELECT hsh.household_id, hsh.special_handling_type_id
        FROM compas.household_special_handling hsh, scr_id_lookup s
       WHERE hsh.household_id = s.ID
         AND s.scr = v_scr
         AND s.run_date = TRUNC (SYSDATE)
         AND effective_date IS NULL
         AND special_handling_type_id = 1
         AND created_by != v_user;
   TYPE arr_household_id IS TABLE OF HOUSEHOLD_SPECIAL_HANDLING.household_id%TYPE
                               INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
   TYPE arr_spec_handl_type_id IS TABLE OF HOUSEHOLD_SPECIAL_HANDLING.SPECIAL_HANDLING_TYPE_ID%TYPE
                                     INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
   l_household_id_col         arr_household_id;
   l_spec_handl_type_id_col   arr_spec_handl_type_id;
BEGIN
   OPEN cur_hhlds_for_update;
   LOOP
      FETCH cur_hhlds_for_update
        BULK COLLECT INTO l_household_id_col, l_spec_handl_type_id_col
      LIMIT 1000;
      EXIT WHEN cur_hhlds_for_update%NOTFOUND;
      FORALL i IN l_household_id_col.FIRST .. l_household_id_col.LAST
         UPDATE compas.household_special_handling
            SET effective_date = TRUNC (SYSDATE),
                last_modified_by = v_user,
                last_modified_date = SYSDATE
          WHERE household_id = l_household_id_col(i)
            AND special_handling_type_id = l_spec_handl_type_id_col(i);
   --l_special_handling_update_cnt := l_special_handling_update_cnt + SQL%ROWCOUNT; -- Not sure what this does.
   END LOOP;

Need help in Bulk collect

Hi All,
I need a help to create a bulk statement. Please find the scenario below
I would like to copy a table A from table B using bulk collect also the table A has more records (1Million). Before doing this I need to either truncate the table B or drop the table to load the data from table A.
Please provide me the correct statement to achieve this request. Thanks in advance!!
Regards,
Boovan.

disabling any indexes on the target should be looked at first. If there are none then look at the above.
When you do a direct path load the indexes are build after loading.The point is that the direct path load does not avoid the undo due to the indexes.
In this example on a table with no indexes the undo used goes from 216kb to 16kb using append.
When an index is added the undo used goes up from 216kb to 704kb an increase of 488kb for a standard insert.
For the direct path insert the undo goes up from 16kb to 440kb so almost the full amount of undo due to the index.
So the presence of a single index can have a much greater impact on the amount of undo required than the use of a direct path load and that undo may not be avoided by the use of a direct path load unless the index is disabled beforehand.
Also note the tiny amounts of undo we are talking about for 50k rows.

Can't download my iTunes Match collection of music anymore! PLEASE HELP! (Pics to prove!)

Hi!
There is probably a pretty easy fix for this situation - it's just I can't figure out what it is. Thanks in advance for your help.
Here's my situation;
1. I have a pretty large collection of music which I paid to match a couple years ago. My computer which I originally used to subscribe to iTunes match has died. No problem right? Since I have already subscribed to iTunes Match. But wait...
2. I wanted to download my entire music collection onto another one of my computers just because I want to keep a back-up of all my music - just incase some time in the future I do NOT want to subscribe to iTunes Match anymore.
3. While I was able to download most of my collection - a ton of songs were not downloaded. But instead, I see as pictured in [1] below, an exclaimation point in a circle to the left of the song, and a cloud icon with an exclaimation point in it under the "Match" column.
4. I am still able to play these songs - and download them individually, but not without going through a 4 step process FOR EACH SONG!!!
THERE MUST BE ANOTHER WAY to download all my music without going through this ridiculous process.
[1] STEP ONE - Select the song I want to download. If I double click it - I first see this message below that says, "The song "the beatles - Beetles-Hey Jude" could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" So, since I no longer have the original file, I click "Cancel". BUT, that's exactly the moment when THE SONG STARTS PLAYING - and the the cloud icon with the exclaimation point turns to a could icon with an down-arrow letting me know that I can now download the file. (Go to step 2)
[2] BUT when I click that cloud icon with the down arrow, the cloud icon with the down arrow changes back to the cloud icon with the exclaimation point and then I get this message that says "The item was not added to iCloud because an error occurred." But the song seems to have downloaded in the right folder in my iTunes music folder. So, I hit OK, and I and I am still able to play this song. (Go to step 3)
[3] So at this stage, I am not sure why there is the CLoud icon with the Exclaimation point in it next to the song. Because it was just downloaded from the cloud, into my iTunes folder. But never the less the cloud icon with the exclaimation point is still there. The only way I can now get rid of that is to right click and select - "Add to iCloud".
[4] So now you see here below, STEP 4 - Hey Jude is downloaded, and matched to the cloud. THERE HAS GOT TO BE A BETTER WAY! Please help.

I have the same problem!!!!PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-I'm having some serious problems with installing iTunes on my laptop. I have searched and searched the internet and can not find any solution to my problem. I am receiving the error "itunes is not a valid win32 application' after the program finishes downloading. Sometimes however it will just stop in the middle of the download. I use a SONY VAIO VGN-NW25GF which was only purchased last year. It uses windows 7. I had trouble downloading itunes to begin with though eventually it worked, however since the new 10.1 update has been available ive been attempting to update it almost every time i use itunes. Each and every time it fails and i've had enough as i need to update my iphone software. I’ve since uninstalled both itunes and quicktime hoping it will reinstall properly. But nothing, the same problem is occurring and now i have no itunes program!
I've tried all the solutions online about deleting browing history/temp folder and any itunessetup.exe/quicktimesetup.exe files and nothing works. I've also tried downloading using a different browser and still nothing. I’ve done a virus scan, disk cleanup and disk defragment and NOTHIGN is working. I'm starting to get quite frustrated as i need this program for my iphone. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks 

Needed help in bulk collect using collections

Hi,
I have created a schema level collection like "CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE T_EMP_NO IS TABLE OF NUMBER ;
will i able to use this in a where clause which involves bulk collect?
Please share ur thoughts.
My oracle version is 10g

user13710379 wrote:
Will i be able to do a bulk collect into a table using this collection of my sql type?Bulk fetches collects into an array like structure - not into a SQL table like structure. So calling a collection variable in PL/SQL a "+PL/SQL table+" does not make much sense as this array structure is nothing like a table. For the same reason, one needs to question running SQL select statements against PL/SQL arrays.
As for your SQL type defined - it is a collection (array) of numbers. Thus it can be used to bulk fetch a numeric column.

ITunes Match has messed up my entire music collection - please help me

Does anyone else have a problem with iTunes Match splitting their albums? I have been happily using iTunes for my entire music collection (round 800 albums) but it became a disaster the day I turned on Match. Where an album has a guest contributor on a track, it removes that track and places it separately, same album name and cover, but with the individual track(s). Some albums have been split across more than 7 individual album entries. The changes appear to be permanent. Turning off Match does not cure the problem. Removing the album and reloading it doesn't cure the problem. I have been through and individually altered each album track to say that it it part of the same album. This results in the album tracks places together but then shows the album as 'unknown artist' so I can't view my music properly. I am at my wits end with this. Please help.

Hi,
This is not a match issue but a general iTunes problem - read this article http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp

Please help me on "Bulk Collect"
