Problem for Struts action to insert multiple records

I am writting a code for Struts action which inserting a single record to table A and multiple records to table B .The architecture that I applied is Struts+Spring+iBatis.The multiple records are come from a 10-rows table in the design.The name of each column element is same.The field name other than these are just single-row field.
<tr>
<td><input name="date" type="text" size="12" /></td>
<td><input name="billno" type="text" size="8" /></td>
<td><input name="desc" type="text" size="11" /></td>
<td><input name="purpose" type="text" size="20" /></td>
<td><input name="proName" type="text" size="6" /></td>
<td><input name="trainingCost" type="text" size="5" /></td>
<td><input name="travelCost" type="text" size="7" /></td>
<td><input name="entCost"  type="text" size="5" /></td>
<td><input name="miscCost" type="text" size="5" /></td>
</tr> I am using three DTO objects to hold the data.claimArray is the ClaimDTO array that hold the multiple record insert to table B.claimdto is the object that hold the single field record to table A.claim_dtldto is the object that hold the single field record to table B.
PK of table A and table B are claimNo and claimDtlNo respectively.claimNo is also FK of table B. HTMLUtil is just an API that I used it for type conversion.There will have two insert statements in iBatis xml, insertClaim & insertClaimDtl to insert data into table A and table B respectively.I not sure what went wrong in the code,the data is not inserted into db.Thank advanced for you guys help..
This is the codes in Action file:
public class InsertClaimAction extends SpringAction {
   public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping,
                                 ActionForm form,
                                 HttpServletRequest request,

    claim_dtldto.setTotalRM(totalRM);
    claim_dtldto.setTotalFC(totalFC);
    claim_dtldto.setFcName(fcName);
    for(int i = 0;i < claimArray.length;i++) {
        if(claimArray[i] != null) {
            claimArray.setDate(date[i]);
claimArray[i].setBillno(billno[i]);
claimArray[i].setDescription(description[i]);

claimArray[i].setProName(proName[i]);
claimArray[i].setTrainingCost(Double.parseDouble(trainingCost[i]));
claimArray[i].setTravelCost(Double.parseDouble(travelCost[i]));
claimArray[i].setEntCost(Double.parseDouble(entCost[i]));

//service
ClaimService springservice = (ClaimService)getBean("ClaimService");
springservice.insertClaim(claimdto);
springservice.insertClaimDtl(claim_dtldto,claimArray);
return mapping.findForward("success");

Two things; you need to pass #number# as a form field and you
need to pull the correct record out.
Use this:
<cfloop list="#form.fieldnames#" index="fieldName">
<CFSET record = Evaluate("form.record_#number#")>
</cfloop>
Here's some example code:

  • Inserting multiple records in JSP and setting date format

    Hi,
    I'm looking at the possibilities for using JSP's as a web application.
    I've got a few questions about it:
    1) Is it possible to insert multiple records in the detail block of my JSP. Normally when I click the 'insert button', an insert JSP comes up, which is a html form with the possiblity of inserting only one record.
    2) Is it possible to change the format of a date field. Now a date field is displayed as 'YYYY-MM-DD'. My nls_date_format is something else.
    3) I can't get the static combo box working for the class EditCurrentRecord. The normal use combo box is no problem. Probably, I don't have the syntax correct. Could anyone provide an example for this.

    2) Just use the Calendar object. You can format the date any way you want. I am assuming that you are talking about how the date appears after a .toString() call.
    Here is how I do it (this code will probably look very bad I am trying to type into a very small space so bear with me):
    public static String traceDate(java.sql.Timestamp dt)
    try
    if (dt == null)
    return " ";
    else
    Calendar clFmt = Calendar.getInstance();
    clFmt.setTime(dt);
    return
    String.valueOf(clFmt.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1) + "/" +
    String.valueOf(clFmt.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH)) + "/" +
    String.valueOf(clFmt.get(Calendar.YEAR)) + " " +
    String.valueOf( (clFmt.get(Calendar.HOUR) == 0) ? 12 : clFmt.get(Calendar.HOUR) ) + ":" +
    padLt(String.valueOf(clFmt.get(Calendar.MINUTE)),2) + ":" +
    padLt(String.valueOf(clFmt.get(Calendar.SECOND)),2) + " " +
    (clFmt.get(Calendar.AM_PM) == Calendar.AM ? "AM" : "PM");
    catch (Exception e)
    throw new RuntimeException(e.getMessage());
    (padLt is a custom function that just pads 0s to the left of the number)

  • Insert multiple records into Oracle using Java

    Hi,
    Has anyone tried to insert multiple records into an Oracle table from Java? I have my data in a Java collection.Can I send a Java Collection to an Oracle Package as a PL/SQL Table Type? My problem is I dont want to instantiate a CallableStatement object everytime I do an insert. Instead I want to do that only once and then insert multiple records in one operation.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated,
    Thanks,
    Alex

    Hi Mensa,
    I went thru the code example in your book in chapter 8 (downloaded it from OTN). It looks like the java code for "public class myPLSQLIndexTab" might be a java stored procedure stored in the oracle database?
    Pardon my ignorance because I've never worked on java code in the oracle database itself but how would I call such a program outside the oracle database? For example say I have a batch job that downloads data from a webservice and that batch job is written in java and its sitting on a batch server somewhere on the network. But the java program that inserts data into the database is sitting in the oracle database (also somewhere in the same network). How can the java code sitting on the batch server talk to the java code sitting on the oracle server? Is it the same as calling a pl/sql package using CallableStatement?
    Thanks

  • Inserting multiple records into a database from a table

    I have a dynamic table with rows upto 10. i am trying to insert all the records in these rows into a database ( msaccess)
    table name: Table1 ( in my form )
    Database table : movies_comments ( as posted in stefan's forums ).
    table columns: username, movieid, comments
    i am using the following code.

    var tlength = xfa.resolveNode("form1.#subform[0].Table1.Row1[*]").length;

    suggest me an alternate way to insert multiple records from a table into a database.
    thank Q

    figured it out. I changed the ...OR (alternative names = colname) in the recordset to ...OR (alternative names LIKE %colname%). Works like a charm now- the result of a good night's sleep.

  • Insert Multiple records using Database adapter with Stored procedure func

    Hi All,
    I want to insert multiple records on a database using a stored procedure. I wanted to insert those records using a Database Adapter and the Database adapter should be invoked by a Mediator.
    Can somebody suggest me with ideas whether it can be acheived with OOB capabtilities in SOA suite or not?
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    Thanks,
    Shiv

    The use case you want to achieve is feature supported by the DBAdapter and it is possible to invoke the same from mediator.
    Please have a look at the oracle documentation and you should be able to get the necessary information.
    The below links should help you as well:

  • ORA-01654 error message when inserting multiple records

    Hello all,
    I have a Test table with attributes TEST_ID, TEST_NAME, TEST_DATE, STATUS, and want to insert multiple records into this table based on user input form. If user select a value from the drop down list, and the number of records to insert into the Test table, the application should insert that many into the Test table with the same TEST_DATE, STATUS, but TEST_NAME should be the drop down list value + i (1....the number of inserted records). I manually created the form, and wrote a sql for the process.
    For example if the user select MUSIC, 3 then data should look like this
    TEST_ID TEST_NAME TEST_DATE STATUS
    1 MUSIC1 04/06/2010 Y
    2 MUSIC2 04/06/2010 Y
    3 MUSIC3 04/06/2010 Y
    I got the error ORA-01654: unable to extend index TEST_TOOL_ID.TEST_PK by 128 in table space FLOW_13120862905990037739.

  • Inserting Multiple Records into two table

    I want to insert records from a ADF swing form into two tables. In the first table the primary key is generated by a trigger and then I need to retrieve the primary id generated and then insert multiple records in another table using the primarykey obtained from the first table as foreign key.
    How to do this ?

    User,
    If you're using ADF Business components, have a read on the DBSequence data type. If you have two VO's linked by a view link, and the FK is a DBSequence type, all this happens for you out-of-the-box.
    Hope this helps,

  • Insert multiple records into a table(Oracle 9i) from a single PHP statement

    How can I insert multiple records into a table(Oracle 9i) from a single PHP statement?
    From what all I've found, the statement below would work if I were using MySQL:
         insert into scen
         (indx,share,expire,pitch,curve,surface,call)
         values
         (81202, 28, 171, .27, 0, 0, 'C' ),
         (81204, 28, 501, .25, 0, 0, 'C' ),
         (81203, 17, 35, .222, 0, 0, 'C' ),
         (81202, 28, 171, .27, 2, 0, 'C' ),
         (81204, 28, 501, .20, 0, 1, 'C' ),
         (81203, 28, 135, .22, 1, 0, 'C' )
    The amount of records varies into the multiple-dozens. My aim is to utilize the power of Oracle while avoiding the i/o of dozens of single-record inserts.
    Thank you,
    Will

    You could look at the INSERT ALL statement found in the documentation here:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96540/statements_913a.htm#2133161
    My personal opinion is that you probably won't see any benefit because under the hood I think Oracle will still be doing single row inserts. I could be wrong though.
    The only way to confirm was if you did a test of multiple inserts vs an INSERT ALL, that is if the INSERT ALL met your requirements.

    hi Ranjith,
    If you want to insert multiple records from the webdynpro view table to database table then try the following code.
    DATA lo_nd_tablenode TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
      DATA lo_el_tablenode TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
      DATA ls_tablenode TYPE wd_this->element_tablenode.

    MODIFY databasetablename FROM TABLE  it_tablenode.
    here it_tablenode is the internal table which holds the value from webdynpro view..

    You can create an nXSD using Native Format Builder and use lookAhead attribute to read values at specific position and use that as the choice. You can find an example here

  • Insert Multiple Records and newest record id

    The problem I have is I am using a somewhat normalized
    database and I am trying to enter multiple records from a form into
    a table called catfit. It also needs to add information to another
    table called prodmat and pull the id of the record I just added to
    the prodmat table and insert it into the catfit table in one shot.
    Promat - Holds all of the products
    columns in this table
    prodid
    mold
    desc
    features
    pic
    Catfit - Table that links Prodmat and Modcats
    columns in this table
    prodid
    catid
    modlid
    Now the form I have

    I have worked with the action.cfm page to no avail what so
    ever so I won't even post it. Now the prodmat table is the table
    where I need to get the prodid (Autonumber column) for the record
    that was just inserted so I can insert that number into the catfit
    table under the prodid column (number column). So this what I
    hoping to get in the end.
    When someone submits this form it will add the data to the
    prodmat table and grab the prodid generated from the new record.
    Then instert a new record for each of the catid select boxes into
    the catfit table. so something like this.
    If they select all three categories upon the submit it would
    add to the catfit table for each record:
    molid = 1
    catid = 2
    prodid = 16 (for instance this would be the newest record
    added to the prodmat table)
    molid = 1
    catid = 6
    prodid = 16
    molid = 1
    catid = 8
    prodid = 16
    Please help I am loosing my hair over this!

    No. Don't do that. It would produce the same results you were
    getting before ie. the values for all three records would be the
    same.
    Number the CDI fields just like you're doing with form.catID.
    So each set of values is grouped by number
    form.catId1, form.CDI1
    form.catId2, form.CDI2
    form.catId3, form.CDI3
    Then extract the values inside your loop and use them in your
    UPDATE
    <cfloop index="LoopCount" from=1
    to=#Val(form.locCount)#>
    <cfset variables.locID= form["locID"& LoopCount] >
    <cfset variables.catid = form["catid" &
    LoopCount]>
    <cfset variables.CDI = form["CDI" & LoopCount]>
    </cfloop>
    Though you may not actually need an UPDATE here. Another
    option might be to do a DELETE of all existing records for a
    product, followed by an INSERT.
