Reg: Limit on calling no of procedures inside a proc

Dear All,
I am sure it is bit silly question, but wanted to clarify. Do we have any limit on calling the no of procedures inside a procedure.
Thanks.

It depends on exactly what you are asking...
In general, you can call as many procedures as you'd like. There are limits on the size of objects like procedures so, in theory, there is a point where a procedure would get so large that you'd have to break it up. Of course, good programming practice would be to break the procedure up long, long before that point if only to keep it readable. There are also potentially limits on things like recursion depth which might be something you're asking about.

Calling java class/procedure inside a trigger

Hi all
I want like to call a java procedure from a trigger.
i know that i should load the class then write call specification and then call the java stored procedure.
Before that what are the prerequisites ..
Do i need to install java on my local machine?
secondly for sample testing can you provide me a sample java code that will connect to my db and inserts some sample data into sample table

JTA timeout while calling a stored procedure inside a DB Adapter

Hi All,
I am wondering if there is a way to increase the timeout interval for the DB Adapter at the BPEL process level than at a global level.
Thanks,

If you're using Oracle Provider for OLE DB (OraOLEDB) to execute this stored procedure, you need to set PLSQLRSet attribute. This attribute can be set in registry, connection string, or command object. Please refer to User Documentation for more information.

If you need to call a procedure which has yet to be defined in your package, you can use forward declaration...
That means that you declare the procedure/function before the place it's going to be called (typically people do this at the top of the package) without providing a body for the code...
PACKAGE BODY        ms_gen_process_email as
   PROCEDURE get_email_details
      p_metric_name     IN   VARCHAR2,
      p_current_stage   IN   VARCHAR2,
      P_ACTION          in   varchar2,
      p_email_type_table out email_type_table
   ); -- Forward declaration of get_email_details procedure
    procedure process_email_master(
      p_metric_name     IN   VARCHAR2,

Call a custom procedure in release 2

How do I call a custom procedure as an HTML form action. I am using release 2. I have a proceudre in my table that runs an update statement when I submit the form. I can't get the form to properly call the procedure. Anyone Know.
Thanks
Cal

why don't you create a dynamic page & just call that custom procedure inside.
as you know your dynamic page will give you url to call from HTML forms action.

Can we call a stored procedure in a select statement

Hi All
I want to call a stored procedure inside a select statement is this possible.
Regards
Sravz

You can create a pipelined function which gathers the data from your stored procedure and then use that in a select statement or directly write your script in any function or pipelined function. ;)
There is no way you can call any stored procedure in a SELECT statement directly - i guess.

Calling stored procedure inside AM. DB connection and updates on act/passiv

Hi Experts,
Currently in my application we have view objects and also we have some stored procedure calls to insert and update data (in the procedure we don't commit it. Due to the volume and complexity we couldn't migrate all the procedures). After the stored procedure call we do refresh the VO (Also in the EO we have checked necessary attributes to refresh on update and insert) to pick up the changes that happened in the stored procedure call. It is working fine and i can be able to see the updated values in the VO after the procedure call. However
Now my question is what will happen on activation and passivation? In the passivation the pinned DB connection is released and used for another AM. Will the stored changes will be rolled back. I mean the DB transaction. If rollback then the VO updates based on the procedure call will be also rolled back? I have tested this behaviour after disabled the AM pooling and set the pool size to 1. It is working but failing some times (In the procedure i have data insert for the child table, after the refresh i could be able to see the child VOs, some times empty child). Did anyone try this approach before?
Also what will happen if AM goes to passivation during the stored procedure executing ( i am getting the DB connection from getDBTransaction(() method). When i was testing i got the resultset null and i checked the stack and it was due to the connection closed). If AM behaves it like that is it reliable to use procedure call inside the AM?
Looking forward you expertise answers.
Thanks

Hi,
I agree with Frank.
In our application we always commit after calling PL/SQL procedures which performs DML-Statements (insert, update, delete).
Without commits you will - beside the passivation problem - face problems with locked records in the database.
To refresh the values from DB we use the "restore current row after rollback" approach (which is applicable for commit too).
regards
Peter

Can you call a procedure inside another procedure and how many?

Ok. I have 3 procedures. I would like to call 2 of the from inside one, but I would like them to be in order.
So,
procedure1 // this is in db1
     call procedure2
            this collects, and inserts data into table 2 from db1
            this must be run first
     call procedure3
           this update the table1, and table2 from db2, and db3
           this must be run second
     finish procedure1
           this also updates table1 and table2 from db1 and db3
           this must be run third
procedure1 end;or should I call a function
procedures 2, and 3 have there own dblinks to other dbs to gather datat, procedure1 is in the same db.
the procedures dont have to be like above. If you want to run proc3, and call proc1, and proc2 first so be it. Just an example

create or replace myPackage
is
procedure1;
procedure2;
procedure3;
end myPackage;
create or replace myPackage body
is
procedure1 is
begin
    -- call 2
    procedure2;
    -- call 3
    procedure3;
end procedure1;
procedure2 is
begin
    do_something_here;
end procedure2;
procedure3 is
begin
    do_something_here;
end procedure3;
end myPackage;
/* now run the procedure1 from sql*plus */
execute myPackage.Procedure1;Message was edited by:

   End;
End If;
End;
/No errors but the procedure doesn't executed !!!!!

1) If you are using autonomous transactions for anything other that writing log data that you want to preserve even if the triggering transaction fails, you're probably doing something wrong. There is no reason to use an autonomous transaction here.
2) You don't want to send email from a trigger. You don't want to do anything non-transactional in a trigger. Oracle will, for example, rollback and re-execute parts of a statement for write consistency. If you send email in a trigger, you may get multiple emails for a single update. You may also get emails for updates that were never committed. And if the email server happens to be down, your transactions will fail.
3) If you use an autonomous transaction, the trigger will have a completely different transaction context from the parent. So when you query the table within the trigger, you won't be able to see any of the uncommitted changes including the changes that caused the trigger to fire. My guess is that you are assuming that the row that you inserted is visible to the trigger.

To call Java Procedure inside Forms6i

How do i call a java procedure (Stored either in Oracle8i database or application server )from Oracle Forms6i trigger / procedure.If this possible please let me know.
Your help in this regard would be appreciated

For java procedures in the database (stored java procedures) you just call the pl/sql wrapper function that was created for the java function.
To call java functions on the application server you can use the java importer utility available with forms6i patch2 and above.

ORA-06502 when calling from a procedure

HI,
I have a procedure(p1) inside a package that queries a table and send out the result based on the input paramater value. OUT variable is of same type as the table column(using %type), column size is varchar2(4000). This procedure is called from another procedure(p2) and sends out the result to Java Page to display the results at front-end.
Problem is when application runs and p1 is called I get the following error message,
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
Length/size of the character string queried from table is _1747_ that is within the limit of 4000 chars. If I limit the output to just 500 using substr, I don't get any error but adding a single character startes throwing error. OUT variable in both p1 and p2 are declared as table.column%type and error comes from p1 only as confirmed by the error log.
When I call p1 or p2 from a declare block, I don't get any error.
This has really confused me and I am not able to find any reason for this difference in behaviour.
Request to help me in understanding what could be the issue here.
Oracle version used is Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit

Error while calling a stored procedure using SQLJ

I am calling a stored procedure defined inside a package through a SQLJ script. The first parameter of that procedure is a IN OUT parameter which is used as a ROWID for creating a cursor. That ROWID value is the same for every record in the table, thereby enabling us to create a cursor.
When I give a hard-coded value as a parameter, I get an error stating that the assignment is not correct as the query is expecting a variable and not a literal. Hence I removed the hard-coded value and included a dymanic value in the SQLJ call.
String strVal = "A";
#sql{CALL ASSIGNMENTS_PKG.INSERT_ROW :{strVal},'SALARY_CODE_GROUP','BU',3,105,sysdate,1,sysdate,1,1)};
Here "ASSIGNMENTS_PKG" is a package name and INSERT_ROW is the procedure.
When the SQLJ program is run, I get an error stating:
"PLS-00201: identifier 'A' must be declared"
I read the error message, but I am not able to understand where I need to give the GRANT permission to.

If you're using Oracle Provider for OLE DB (OraOLEDB) to execute this stored procedure, you need to set PLSQLRSet attribute. This attribute can be set in registry, connection string, or command object. Please refer to User Documentation for more information.

Calling a Stored Procedure with output parameters from Query Templates

This is same problem which Shalaka Khandekar logged earlier. This new thread gives the complete description about our problem. Please go through this problem and suggest us a feasible solution.
We encountered a problem while calling a stored procedure from MII Query Template as follows-
1. Stored Procedure is defined in a package. Procedure takes the below inputs and outputs.
a) Input1 - CLOB
b) Input2 - CLOB
c) Input3 - CLOB
d) Output1 - CLOB
e) Output2 - CLOB
f) Output3 - Varchar2
2. There are two ways to get the output back.
a) Using a Stored Procedure by declaring necessary OUT parameters.
b) Using a Function which returns a single value.
3. Consider we are using method 2-a. To call a Stored Procedure with OUT parameters from the Query Template we need to declare variables of
corresponding types and pass them to the Stored Procedure along with the necessary input parameters.
4. This method is not a solution to get output because we cannot declare variables of some type(CLOB, Varchar2) in Query Template.
5. Even though we are successful (step 4) in declaring the OUT variables in Query Template and passed it successfully to the procedure, but our procedure contains outputs which are of type CLOB. It means we are going to get data which is more than VARCHAR2 length which query template cannot return(Limit is 32767
characters)
6. So the method 2-a is ruled out.
7. Now consider method 2-b. Function returns only one value, but we have 3 different OUT values. Assume that we have appended them using a separator. This value is going to be more than 32767 characters which is again a problem with the query template(refer to point 5). So option 2-b is also ruled out.
Apart from above mentioned methods there is a work around. It is to create a temporary table in the database with above 3 OUT parameters along with a session specific column. We insert the output which we got from the procedure to the temporary table and use it further. As soon the usage of the data is completed we delete the current session specific data. So indirectly we call the table as a Session Table. This solution increases unnecessary load on the database.
Thanks in Advance.

Rajesh,
please check if this following proposal could serve you.
Define the Query with mode FixedQueryWithOutput. In the package define a ref cursor as IN OUT parameter. To get your 3 values back, open the cursor in your procedure like "Select val1, val2, val3 from dual". Then the values should get into your query.
Here is an example how this could be defined.
Package:
type return_cur IS ref CURSOR;
Procedure:
PROCEDURE myProc(myReturnCur IN OUT return_cur) ...
OPEN myReturnCur FOR SELECT val1, val2, val3 FROM dual;
Query:
DECLARE
MYRETURNCUR myPackage.return_cur;
BEGIN
myPackage.myProc(
MYRETURNCUR => ?
END;
Good luck.

Problem with JDBC results calling simple stored procedure in VC 7.0

Hi all,
I am building a simple VC model which calls a stored procedure on a JDBC database. I have created the system in the portal, defined the alias and user mapping, the connection test is fine and the VC "find data" lists my bespoke stored procedure.
The stored procedure is :
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.dt_getBieUsers
AS
select * from dbo.emailuserlink
GO
When I test it using query analyser, it returns 3 records each with the two fields I expect - user and email address.
I drag the model onto the workspace in VC and create an input form ( with just a submit button ). i drag the result port out to create a table. This has no fields in it.
I build and deploy as flex and the app runs, I click the submit button and SUCCESS! I get 3 records in my table each with 2 fields. The data is all correct. The problem with this is the fields are determined at runtime it seems.
I go back to the table and add 2 columns "email" and "address".
i build and deploy and run the app. Again I get 3 records, but this time the contents of all of the rows is not data, but "email" and "address". The data has been replaced by the header texts in all of the rows.
Can anyone help? Why isn't the data being put in my columns as I would expect?
I tried to build and deploy the app as Web Dynpro rather than Flex to see if it was a bug in Flex. The application starts but when I click the submit button to run the JDBC stored procedure I get a 500 Internal Server Error
com.sap.tc.wd4vc.intapi.info.exception.WD4VCRuntimeException: No configuration is defined for the entry JDBCFunction

The JDBC connection I am using has a connection URL of jdbc:sap:sqlserver://localhost;DatabaseName=BIEUSERS
and a driver class of com.sap.portals.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
Can anyone solve my wierd problems?
Cheers
Richard

Hi Richard,
After you drag and drop the data service, right click on it and choose "Test data service". Then click on "Execute" and after you see the result on the right, click on "Add fields" button (inside the same window). Now you'll see that the fields are on the tabel. This is required only for JDBC data services, since this data (how the resultset is built) is not know in DT and it needs to be run firest - then analysed and only then you have to add the fields to the table).
Regards,
Natty
