Reg Oracle 8i to Oracle 9i migration Java

Question

The following java stored program which works fine in Oracle 8i (8.1.7) throws an ArrayIndexOutOfBounds Exception in Oracle 9i (9.2.0.4).
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;
public class chk extends Object
public static String chk_args (String[] args)
return args[0];
call spec:
function CHK_ARGS( p_cmd in varchar2) return VARCHAR2
as
language java
name 'chk.chk_args(java.lang.String[]) return java.lang.String';
Can any one highlight about this?

Answer 1

Also, I advice you to take the statspack (in fact couple of report) for performancecomparsion in case there is any degradation in performance after migrating to 9i. There are may cases where this has been report, i.e. drastic degradation in the performance after migrating from 8i to 9i. I advice you to apply the latest patch i.e. 9206 without fail as it has resolved so many bugs and more importantly fixed optimizer problems.
If you have metalink support, just GOOGLE for migrating 8i to 9i and you will see N number good advice from oracle.
If you need any advice from me, you can email me directly at [email protected]
