Question on using table types in methods

Hi
I have a simple question involving passing table types in method
I want to pass an internal table by reference - to a method and within the method populate the internal table (t1) using a select * into the internal table and then sort t1 by f1 and f2. t1 is an internal table based on a ABAP dictionary table ( at1 )
Question is : If I use a generic type TABLE declaration , it does not allow sort operation specifically by fields. If I use type at1 as in
the METHODS M1 exporting t1 type at1statement, syntax error is - t1 is not an internal table.
How do I achieve the above using the method implementation ?
Sample code that I try
CLASS C1 DEFINITION
PUBLIC SECTION
METHODS M1 exporting t1 type table
ENDMETHOD
ENDCLASS
CLASS C1 IMPLEMENTATION
METHOD M1
select * from at1 into t1.
sort t1 field f1 f2
ENDCLASS

You should define a TABLE TYPE based upon the data dictionary type (at1) either in the data dictionary using SE11 or in the TYPES section of the class.
Then define the parameter of this new type.

Using Table types in RFC

Hi All,
I am trying to create one RFC. But in that RFC, I wish to use Table types as import and export parameters completly avoiding Tables tab. Will that effect the performance of RFC if I use Table types. If Yes, Please give clear clarification where it effects the performance.
Also please let me know how the performance of the RFC is effected if we use Tables tab.
Thanks,
Ravee..

"I wish to use Table types as import and export parameters completly avoiding Tables tab."
I'm not sure if Tables can be avoided, if just using regular ABAP. I know that the Importing tab would not work when I tried it (under vrs 4.6b).
Because you are launching separate processes, in separate memory areas: any parameter you use in RFC has to be known by the calling and the callee functions/programs. This means that you need a common reference. If you have more than one function module in a function group, you can use the TOP file and a 'Z' data dictionary structure.
I hope that this helps,

Datasources with function module which uses table type

hi..
I am creating a datasource which extracts data using a function module from xRPM to BW. When creating the function module it gives an error " TABLES parameters are obsolete!" while trying to specify the extract structure. I searched in SDN and learnt that we need to use table types and use that in the changing tab.Not sure how that works and where we need to use the extract structure for this.
Could someone please explain this to me and let me know how i can create my datasource using this type of function module.

Hi,
in your case you need the tables parameter, as the service api expects the result of the fm in a table called e_t_data. Of course table parameters are obsolet but you can just ignore the warning and it will work.
regards
Siggi
PS: Extraction fm must follow a strict interface definition.

Page break handeling when using table type field

Hello everyone
I've created an adobe form using tcode SFP.
A table, "T1", is containing fields where one of it is a TABLE TYPE (Let give the following name "T1-FT1").
So the structure can look like:
T1-F1
T1-F2
T1-FT1-FTF1
T1-FT1-FTF2
basically the structure is like to have documents containing several items where those items have several serial number.
I need to have page break per documents, per items and serial number where those one have specific header page different than the document itself.
I need to have a page break per T1 records with specifc header.
So for each new records of T1, I have to create a new page with it's specific header.
The table T1-FT1 is starting on the current page, but if I have to many records to stay on the page I need to create another page with it's specific header that is different than the page 1.
My problem is the page break handling.
I can have the pagination tab at the Table1 and row1 level but I don't have the pagination tab at the T1-FT1 level.
Here is what my hierarchy:
_MasterPage
__Page1
__Page2
_MainSubForm
__Subform1
___Table1
____Row1
_____Subform
______Table2
________Row2
Example of Data:
T1-F1 ___ T1-F2 __ T1-FT1-FTF1 __ T1-FT1_FTF2
A _______ B _____ 1 ___________ 1
A _______ B _____ 1 ___________ 2
B _______ C _____ 1 ___________ 1
B _______ D _____ 1 ___________ 2
B _______ D _____ 1 ___________ 3
The final page break layout should look like:
Page1
Header1
A B
___ 1 1
___ 1 2
Page2
Header1
B C
___ 1 1
___ 1 2
Page 3
Header2
B C
___ 1 3
Because there is not enough room on page 2 for the last record of the table T1-FT1, a new header is used on page 3.
Actually several problems occurs. I cannot have the proper page break set to avoid empty pages as first or last page.
The pagination tab stop to be available after the Row1. So we cannot set page break at the table2 and row2.
The page break contidion doesn't work. "Well I didn't succeed to make it work".
Any idea on how to handle those page break at table2 level?
Is anyone had to create a PDF form where we have the date into several level of structure?
Regards

I have the exact same issue. Could not find a solution. In my case, there are multiple subforms printed one below the other. If an expandable subform overflows into a new page, the last line overlaps with the text of next subform. I have added blank spaces between the subforms but, that does not solve the issue.
Finally, I have managed to minimize the occurrence of the issue by doing the following. Only turn on the flag "Allow Page breaks within content" for subforms that can really spread over many pages. All other subforms, turn the flag off. This minimizes the possibility of overlapping.

Using TABLE type,display '???'

Recently,I want pass a TABLE as parameter from PLSQL to java.
the TABLE is consisted of Object;
Following is source code:
step1:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE o_obj AS OBJECT
id number,
name varchar2(50),
CONSTRUCTOR FUNCTION obj008 RETURN SELF AS RESULT
step 2:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE nt_rec_objs IS TABLE OF o_obj
step 3:
create or replace package PKG_PUB_SCD_BATCH is
procedure p_test(
o_param1 in number,
o_rs out nt_rec_objs
)as
begin
end;
step4:
In java,call the procedure by oracle.jdbc.*
If the value is number,Java will print it .
If the value is other predefined type(varchar,varchar2,char etc) .Java will print '???'.
First I think it caused by different character set.
when I change procedure P_TEST,make it pass directly a varchar2,not a TABLE,
Java can print it normally.
I do know why it is .Who can help me??

Hi,
I am using table emp having fields id,name,,,,,,,,,photo,mimetype,filename,last_update_date.
photo is of type BLOB. I updated photo (text item) on form.
I Used BLOB DOWNLOAD Format Mask with appropriate entries & selected display as Attachment.
So my problem is partially solved. Now if DOWNLOAD link on Form is clicked it displays Excel sheet
in different window. But still, DOWNLOAD link on my Interactive report not working properly.
DOWLOAD on interactive if it is clicked it has two problems
1) It opens image or notepad file in same window.
2) Not able to open Excel sheet.
thanks for reply.

Question of using table?

Hi
I have a problem for measurement and it will get some numeric data to LabVIEW. I want to put all the data into a table and the format is as below.
No. Total Time
1 4 11
12
10
11
2 3 23
14
18
3 3 12
11
15
No. is the total number of loop has been executed. Total is the number of time I get. Time is an array generated in each loop. I don't know how to program for this format. Any suggestion?
Bill.

Hello,
look attached vi.
It simulates measurement data in your format and print to table.
Good luck.

Reg : Table Type

Hi All,
can anyone tell me
What does table type mean?
Why table type is used?
What are the advantages of using Table Type?
Regards,
Chandra Prakash

Hi,
Table Types
A table type describes the structure and functional attributes of an internal table in ABAP. In ABAP programs you can reference a table type TTYP defined in the ABAP Dictionary with the command DATA <inttab> TYPE TTYP. An internal table <inttab> is created in the program with the attributes defined for TTYP in the ABAP Dictionary.
A table type is defined by:
its line type, that defines the structure and data type attributes of a line of the internal table
the options for managing and accessing the data ( access mode) in the internal table
the key ( key definition and key category) of the internal table
The row type is defined by directly entering the data type, length and number of decimal places or by referencing a data element, structured type ( structure, table or view) or other table type. Or the row type can be a reference type.
Table type TABTYPE shown in the graphic can be used with the statement DATA <name> TYPE TABTYPE in ABAP programs to define an internal table <name>.
A local type <name> that takes on the attributes of type TABTYPE can be defined in the program with TYPES <name> TYPE TABTYPE.

But it is taking default as 8168, leading to HASH join between the tables..leading to FULL TABLE access.
So my question is, is there any way by which I can change the statistics while using collections in SQL ?
I can use hints to use indexes but planning to avoid it as of now. Currently the time shown in explain plan is not accurate

Thanks Tubby,
While searching I had found out that we can use CARDINALITY hint to set statistics for TABLE funtion.
But I preferred not to say, as it is currently undocumented hint. I now think I should have mentioned it while posting for the first time
http://www.oracle-developer.net/display.php?id=427
If we go across the document, it has mentioned in total 3 hints to set statistics :
1) CARDINALITY (Undocumented)
2) OPT_ESTIMATE ( Undocumented )
3) DYNAMIC_SAMPLING ( Documented )
4) Extensible Optimiser
Tried it out with different hints and it is working as expected.
i.e. cardinality and opt_estimate are taking the default set value
But using dynamic_sampling hint provides the most correct estimate of the rows ( which is 2 in this particular case )
With CARDINALITY hint
SELECT
    /*+ cardinality( e, 5) */*
FROM
     TABLE
          SELECT
               CAST(TABLE_ESC_ATTACH(OBJ_ESC_ATTACH( 9999, 99991, 'file1.png', NULL, NULL, NULL),
               OBJ_ESC_ATTACH( 9999, 99992, 'file2.png', NULL, NULL, NULL)) AS TABLE_ESC_ATTACH)

Note
   - dynamic sampling used for this statement (level=2)I will be testing the last option "Extensible Optimizer" and put my findings here .
I hope oracle in future releases, improve the statistics gathering for collections which can be used in DML and not just use the default block size.
By the way, are you aware why it uses the default block size ? Is it because it is the smallest granular unit which oracle provides ?

are you chaning any value in the gird if so use this..
Pass the user_command form name to the Import parameter
I_CALL_BACK_USERCOMMAND .
and have the Dynamic form implementation..

How to use nested table types with XDK

Im using Oracles XDK (xml development kit) to create xml-documents from data in database.4
Problem: I need to use nested tables but when trying to create nested table types I get error: A Table type may not contain a nested table type or VARRAY.
Hope I make myself clear! Are there any solutions or workarounds to this problem?
Help appreciated, thanks!

Jesper,
I asked similar question last year (search for Tapsell, you will see my posting). Under 8.1.7 the "nesting" seems restricted to one level down. Thus you cannot create a type using another object that itself includes a nested table. Under Oracle 9, against which most current examples seem based, this limitation is removed making things easier. Under 8.1.7 the workaround I have used is to use the CAST syntax. This is not as neat, but it works.

How to use Oracle Table Type values in Select Statement.

Hi,
I am fetching initial set of values into Oracle Table of Records Type and want to use list of values in the Select statement.
For example, try something like the following:
TYPE t_record IS RECORD (
ID TABLEA.ID%type,
NO TABLEA.NO%type,
v_record t_record;
TYPE t_table IS TABLE OF v_record%TYPE;
v_table t_table;
-- Code to populate the values in v_table here.
SELEC ID,NO, BULK COLLECT INTO <some other table variabes here> FROM TABLEA
WHERE ID IN v_table(i).ID;
I want to know how to use the values from Oracle Table Type in the Select Statement.

Something like this:
create or replace type t_record as object (
id number,
no number
CREATE or replace type t_table AS TABLE OF t_record;
set serveroutput on
declare
v_table t_table := t_table();
v_t1 t_table := t_table();
begin
v_table.extend(1);
v_table(1).ID := 1;
v_table(1).No := 10;
v_table.extend(1);
v_table(2).ID := 2;
v_table(2).ID := 20;
SELEC t_record (ID,NO) BULK COLLECT INTO v_t1
from TableA
FROM TABLEA
WHERE ID IN (select t.ID from table(v_Table) t);
for i in 1..v_t1.count loop
dbms_output.put_line(v_t1(i).ID);
dbms_output.put_line(v_t1(i).No);
end loop;
end;
/Untested!

How to use record type for inserting data into a table

I've read through the web the following tip:
"When working with a large number of columns, using variables of type RECORD is a better approach. With this approach, you do not have to list anything in the INSERT statement, because you are inserting a variable into the table that is defined as a row from the same table."
I usually define a variable as
r_mytable     mytable%ROWTYPE;
and inside my procedure I'll set the fields I need as
r_mytable.field1 := 1;
r_mytable.field3 := 7;
and then I perform the insert as
insert into mytable
(field1,
field3)
values
(r_mytable.field1,
r_mytable.field3);
According to the tip I've copied above, how can I use the TYPE RECORD of pl/sql for achieving the same result but perhaps in a smarter way?
Thanks in advance!
