Regarding replace function

hi all,
i am using Forms [32 Bit] Version 6.0.8.24.1 (Production)
Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
i have a cursor select statement like below
cursor c_name is
SELECT SHIPPER_NAME
FROM B_DETAILS
WHERE BDL_REFERENCE = 20;i am viewing this file through xml format. so in that format the special characters like '&' and quotes(") are not allowed(means it will through error) i have to replace these characters.
but how i will come to know that in the column what i am fetching from the table the special characters are present.
Please help me..
Thanks..

Hi,
If you would like to remove only quotes(") and ampersand(&) use this
{code}
select regexp_replace('This is a test $%&^&" ', '[\&\"]', '') from dual;
if you like to remove most of the special characters you can try thisselect regexp_replace('$"This is a test $%&^&" ', '( *[[:punct:]])', '') from dual;
In case you cannot use the regexp then try this not very elegant but will workselect replace(replace('This is a test $%&^&" ', '&', ''), '"', '') from dual;
cheers

A query regarding synchronised functions, using shared object

Hi all.
I have this little query, regarding the functions that are synchronised, based on accessing the lock to the object, which is being used for synchronizing.
Ok, I will clear myself with the following example :
class First
int a;
static int b;
public void func_one()
synchronized((Integer) a)
{ // function logic
} // End of func_one
public void func_two()
synchronized((Integer) b)
{ / function logic
} // End of func_two
public static void func_three()
synchronized((Integer) a)
{ // function logic
} // End of func_three, WHICH IS ACTUALLY NOT ALLOWED,
// just written here for completeness.
public static void func_four()
synchronized((Integer) b)
{ / function logic
} // End of func_four
First obj1 = new First();
First obj2 = new First();
Note that the four functions are different on the following criteria :
a) Whether the function is static or non-static.
b) Whether the object on which synchronization is based is a static, or a non-static member of the class.
Now, first my-thoughts; kindly correct me if I am wrong :
a) In case 1, we have a non-static function, synchronized on a non-static object. Thus, effectively, there is no-synchronisation, since in case obj1 and obj2 happen to call the func_one at the same time, obj1 will obtain lock for obj1.a; and obj2 will obtain lock to obj2.a; and both can go inside the supposed-to-be-synchronized-function-but-actually-is-not merrily.
Kindly correct me I am wrong anywhere in the above.
b) In case 2, we have a non-static function, synchronized on a static object. Here, again if obj1, and obj2 happen to call the function at the same time, obj1 will try to obtain lock for obj1.a; while obj2 will try to obtain lock for obj2.a. However, since obj1.a and obj2.a are the same, thus we will indeed obtain sychronisation.
Kindly correct me I am wrong anywhere in the above.
c) In case 3, we have a static function , synchronized on a non-static object. However, Java does not allow functions of this type, so we may safely move forward.
d) In case 4, we have a static function, synchronized on a static object.
Here, again if obj1, and obj2 happen to call the function at the same time, obj1 will try to obtain lock for obj1.a; while obj2 will try to obtain lock for obj2.a. However, since obj1.a and obj2.a are the same, thus we will indeed obtain sychronisation. But we are only partly done for this case.
First, Kindly correct me I am wrong anywhere in the above.
Now, I have a query : what happens if the call is made in a classically static manner, i.e. using the statement "First.func_four;".
Another query : so far we have been assuming that the only objects contending for the synchronized function are obj1, and obj2, in a single thread. Now, consider this, suppose we have the same reference obj1, in two threads, and the call "obj1.func_four;" happens to occur at the same time from each of these threads. Thus, we have obj1 rying to obtain lock for obj1.a; and again obj1 trying to obtain lock for obj1.a, which are the same locks. So, if obj1.a of the first thread obtains the lock, then it will enter the function no-doubt, but the call from the second thread will also succeed. Thus, effectively, our synchronisation is broken.
Or am I being dumb ?
Looking forward to replies..
Ashutosh

a) In case 1, we have a non-static function, synchronized on a non-static object. Thus, effectively, there is no-synchronisationThere is no synchronization between distinct First objects, but that's what you specified. Apart from the coding bug noted below, there would be synchronization between different threads using the same instance of First.
b) In case 2, we have a non-static function, synchronized on a static object. Here, again if obj1, and obj2 happen to call the function at the same time, obj1 will try to obtain lock for obj1.a; while obj2 will try to obtain lock for obj2.a.obj1/2 don't call methods or try to obtain locks. The two different threads do that. And you mean First.b, not obj1.b and obj2.b, but see also below.
d) In case 4, we have a static function, synchronized on a static object. Here, again if obj1, and obj2 happen to call the function at the same time, obj1 will try to obtain lock for obj1.a; while obj2 will try to obtain lock for obj2.a.Again, obj1/2 don't call methods or try to obtain locks. The two different threads do that. And again, you mean First.b. obj1.b and obj2.b are the same as First.b. Does that make it clearer?
Now, I have a query : what happens if the call is made in a classically static manner, i.e. using the statement "First.func_four;".That's what happens in any case whether you write obj1.func_four(), obj2.func)four(), or First.func_four(). All these are identical when func_four(0 is static.
Now, consider this, suppose we have the same reference obj1, in two threads, and the call "obj1.func_four;" happens to occur at the same time from each of these threads. Thus, we have obj1 rying to obtain lock for obj1.aNo we don't, we have a thread trying to obtain the lock on First.b.
and again obj1 trying to obtain lock for obj1.aYou mean obj2 and First.b, but obj2 doesn't obtain the lock, the thread does.
which are the same locks. So, if obj1.a of the first thread obtains the lock, then it will enter the function no-doubt, but the call from the second thread will also succeed.Of course it won't. Your reasoning here makes zero sense..Once First.b is locked it is locked. End of story.
Thus, effectively, our synchronisation is broken.No it isn't. The second thread will wait on the same First.b object that the first thread has locked.
However in any case you have a much bigger problem here. You're autoboxing your local 'int' variable to a possibly brand-new Integer object every call, so there may be no synchronization at all.
You need:
Object a = new Object();
static Object b = new Object();

Hi Jimmy,

Replace() function doesn't work in Application Designer?

I'm using PeopleSoft Application Designer 8.51. I'm trying to do a simple Replace function so I can escape single quotes rather than allow them to blow up the sql query.
&deptid = Replace(&deptid, "'", "''");
App Designer chokes when I hit Save: "Invalid function parameter type. (2,19)"
According to the docs I'm using this correctly: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26239_01/pt851h3/eng/psbooks/tace/book.htm?File=tace/htm/tace14.htm#H4095
Even if I try to execute the example right out of the documentation, I get the same error: REPLACE("StringFun", "Fun", "Number");
Is this a bug in app designer? REPLACE is a super common thing, it's not something obscure. How can this not work?
Thanks in advance.

I figured this out. “Replace” is a strange duck function that relies on offsets. “Substitute” is the magic I needed, works just like I was expecting Replace to work. The documentation I was reading on Replace was for “ PeopleSoft Analytic Calculation Engine” rather than peoplecode. I’ll pay closer attention to that next time. Maybe this will help someone else...

Replace function not working for XML CLOB data

Hi all,
I am generating XML using DBMS_XMLGEN in oracle 10g. After generating the XML, I am replacing the ROW tags with appropriate tag name using REPLACE function. Sometimes the tag name is not replaced correctly.
Eg.I am replacing </Cargo_ROW> with </CargoDetail>. But sometimes in one xml, this tag is coming as </CargoDetROW> or </CargoDetaiW>. The XML size is always huge and the same tag is repeated so many time in the loop and in the same XML, only one tag will be replaced incorrectly. This also not happening for all XMLs.
If any one knows the cause about this problem or solution, please share the same.
thanks,

Yes Anton, you are right..

Bulk Replacements using Replace function in oracle 8i

Hi All,
Iam using oracle 8i version and i need to use Replace function for bulf replacements i mean i need to replace around 250 rows. So please anyone suggest me how to proceed
on this request as iam using oracle 8i version.
Thanks!
Srini

Write one update statement.
The where condition is the filter what rows need to be touched.
The SET condition will do the data change. For example it could use the REPLACE function if that is what it is needed.
One single update statement over 20 rows would mean the task is done in BULK. 20 single updates that each handle one row would mean it is row by row = slow by slow processing.

SQL replace function in JDeveloper

In SQL*Plus I run the following queries...
select last_name, phone_number from employees
LAST_NAME PHONE_NUMBER
Chung 650.505.1876
Dilly 650.505.2876
Gates 916.764.6600
select last_name, replace (phone_number, '.', '-') from employees
LAST_NAME REPLACE(PHONE_NUMBER
Chung 650-505-1876
Dilly 650-505-2876
Gates 916-764-6600
If I try to use the "REPLACE" function in the JDeveloper by editing the sql statement in the view object editor and run the page the results returned for the phone number column on the page are blank.
How can I substitute a dash for the period on the page?

Try using AS:
select last_name, replace (phone_number, '.', '-') AS phone_number from employees
In this case is recommended for your VO a read only query.

Replace Function in Cold Fusion

Hello All,
The code below does the following: It finds an item in Spanish (in this case it's GetBasket.options, 2) and add `SPA` to the SKU code.
<cfif ListContains(GetBasket.options, 2)><option value="2"><cfset basketsku = GetBasket.SKU & "SPA"></option></cfif>
How do I do the following?
The SKU code is a 5 digit code for all languages. For example: the SKU code in English is 902013, but the SKU code for Spanish is 903013. As you can see the 3rd number is being replaced with 3. It will be standard for all items in Spanish. How do I modify the code above to replace the 3rd number with 3?
Thank you all very much in advance!

not sure if you found an answer to this question but if you use the Replace function you can do this.
Replace(DB.value, 2, 3 )

Replace function in TT7

Hi,
I have a database in TT Release 7.0.3.1.0 and other in Release 11.2.2.4.0. I need use replace sql function over Release 7.0.3.1.0.
I know that it not apply in this version but I've tried with ttIsqlCS in node with TT11 through connection in database TT7 but I received this error:
ttIsqlCS database_test_R7
Command> select replace('asjkhdfkhaskdh','a','1') from dual;
2818: Unknown function REPLACE
The command failed.
Command> version;
TimesTen Release 11.2.2.4.0
Any idea ??
Thanks in advance.
Babs.

Hi Babs,
I am afraid that you are out of luck. SQL is implemented in the TimesTen engine/libraries not in the ttIsql client. Since 7.0 SQL does not have th REPLACE() function there is no way to execute that in 7.0 regardless of the client you use. You'll need to find some other option to accomplish what you require (maybe upgrade the 7.0 database to 11.2.2?).

Replace function in JDeveloper 3.2

Hi JDev Team:
Are there any global replace functions in JDev 3.2, for instance I have one word, say 'aaaa', in all of my projct files, .jsp, .java, .... I like to replace with 'bbbb'.
Thanks

The JDeveloper Editor provides Search & Replace functionality for files.
What I typically do is
Select menu: Search | Search Source Path...
Enter Search String and Change Source path
and other fields and press Start
Then the Navigator displays a Search tab which lists all files with the matching string.
Double click on first file in navigator and
select menu Search | Replace
In this dialog enter your search, replace, and other options-
In the Options, If you do not want to be prompted, do not check the Prompt on replace option.
Select the Scope of Global
Selectg the Origin of Entire
When you are ready press the Multiple button to make multiple replacements.
When you are done with this file,
Press Ctrl-S to Save the file
Press Ctrl-F4 to close the window
Double click on the Next File
Press Ctrl-R to invoke the Search | Replace dialog.
You should not need to change any options.
Press Alt-M to select the Multiple Button!
While this may seem more complex then a simple Sed / Perl / Python script, it is more controllable, flexible and user friendly.
Besides, you may learn a few JDeveloper tricks.
Good Luck,
-John

REPLACE function in PSP for formatting

Hi everyone,
I am coding PL/SQL server pages at the moment and am trying to produce an onscreen report.
 I was just wondering if it is possible to use the REPLACE function to replace a part of a string with the same thing but in bold?
for example, I have tried:

htp.p('<TD WIDTH="43%" valign="top" align="left">'||REPLACE(var_comments,'''TEST''',||'TEST'||')'||'</TD>'); but it isn't working. I just wanted to check it was possible and if so, where am I going wrong??

Thanks in advance!

This will work:
htp.p('<TD WIDTH="43%" valign="top" align="left">'||REPLACE(var_comments,'''TEST''',||'TEST'||')'||'</TD>');I also suggest generating your table HTML using the htp.table... procedures.

Replace function Issue

Hi All,
I using replace in my package and facing this issue.
In my code i have temp fields 1 to 15.
so when i use replace function to replace :temp1 value it also replaces value of :temp11.
     :temp1 = some checks
     :temp2 = some checks
     :temp9 = some checks
     :temp10 = some checks
     till temp15
Any Solutions for this?
Thanks.

like for example :
i want to replace the value of temp1 field with 10 and temp10, temp11 ...with some other values.
in code it will
/*temp1*/
if ('10') = some value then
some actions;
end if;
/*temp10*/
if ('10'0) = some value then -- value of temp1 gets replaced here
end if;

Regarding Obsolete Function Modules

Hi all,
 can anybody tell me the alternative ECC6.0 function modules of the following Obsolete function modules
DOWNLOAD
UPLOAD
WS_DOWNLOAD
WS_UPLOAD
WS_FILENAME_GET
WS_QUERY
POPUP_TO_CONFIRM_STEP
POPUP_TO_CONFIRM_WITH_MESSAGE
thnks
Sandeep

here are replacement function modules for the obsolete ones.
award points in case u feel this useful
1. Obsolete Function Module: WS_UPLOAD.
 Replacement FM: GUI_UPLOAD.
Note:
1. If the FM WS_UPLOAD' has file type as ASC, then we can use same file
 type ASC for GUI_UPLOAD also.
2. But if the FM 'WS_UPLOAD' has file type as DAT, we can not use DAT for
'GUI_UPLOAD' as it will give short dump.
 In this case we need use file type as ASC
 and
 HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR = X.
3. If the file name or file type of ws_upload have variables or constants
 Instead of hard coding, then dont use hard code values for gui_upload.
3. The data type of file name always should be of character type for gui_upload
 The file type should be of Type Character and length 10.
4. Always uncomment the exceptions for gui_upload.
5. And also uncomment the code inside IF SY-SUBRC <> 0. and ENDIF after
 gui_upload if the customer has not handled any exception in 46c version.
 If there is any code inside IF SY-SUBRC <> 0 and ENDIF for ws_upload in 46c
 version, Please use the same code in ECC also after gui_upload.

 Replacement FM: GUI_DOWNLOAD.
Note:
1. If the FM WS_DOWNLOAD' has file type as ASC, then we can use same file
 Type ASC for GUI_DOWNLOAD also.
2. If the FM 'WS_DOWNLOAD' has file type as DAT, we can use DAT for
'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
3. If the file name or file type of ws_upload have variables or constants

 Declare variables and assign the ws_download variables to new variables
 and use These in the new FM.
4. The data type of file name always should be of character type for gui_upload
 The file type should be of Type Character and length 10.
