Simple Oracle Questions

Hello All
I have a simple qusetion.
I have been developing a .Net application which uses SQL Server 2005 Database.
Now I am trying to convert it to use Oracle Database.
I am trying to use the using System.Data.OracleClient namespace so that I can use the OracleConnection and such
However when I type System.Data. I only get the SQLClient by default.
Are ther any additional libraries or references that I need to insert into my project in order to access the the System.Data.OracleClient namespace?
I am using VS 2005 Academic Edition.
Thanks very mcuh in advance.

Converting a simple Oracle Report to XML Publisher report template

Hello,
I have a simple Oracle Report 9i which displays data from four tables. It uses three different queries to get the data. How can I simply generate a template file(say RTF) or atleast an XML source from that report? I tried joining the queries (like outer join) but wasn't able to get the format which report 9i was generating. Could anyone please help me out with a clear approach?

Hi,
Are you referring to how to get xml out put from seeded report i mean from EBS that already in oracle reports,
then you need to query from respective application by creating new concurrent program and then change the out put to XML, you will get xml file then save it to your system.
By using this input xml fle you can create RTF template whatever you want the foramat, after that you upload back this RTF file to EBS using XML PUBLISHER ADMINISTRATOR responsibility.
hope this might give you idea,
let us know if it is not clear or you are asking different question,

Embedded SQL against Oracle Question

Software: Forte 3.0.J.
Server Platform: HPUX 10.2
Database: Oracle
Problem Description: During the course of development, I ran into a
problem using multiple columns in an sql UPDATE/SET statement. I was trying
to update a.COLUMN_1 and a.COLUMN_2, which constitute part of the primary
key of associative TABLE_A (a). In order for me to make the update, I
needed to use the existing value of a.COLUMN_1 to lookup the new b.COLUMN_1
in TABLE_B (b). Where a.COLUMN_1 = b.RELATED_COLUMN_1, I am able to find
each b.COLUMN_2 that correspond to each a.COLUMN_2.
I was able to resolve the issue by separating the two columns so
that each had it's own select statement. Theoretically, it appears that
this shouldn't work, because the SET statement for a.COLUMN_1 would cause
the a.COLUMN_1 reference in the select statement of a.COLUMN_2 to be
overwritten.
In spite of this, I tried it, and it worked. I would like to
understand why the sql works, and how sql actually executes the statement.
Here is the sql:
UPDATE TABLE_A a
SET a.COLUMN_1 =
(SELECT DISTINCT b1.COLUMN_1
FROM TABLE_B b1
WHERE b1.RELATED_CASE_ID =
a.COLUMN_1 AND
b1.RELATED_COLUMN_TYPE_CD = 'NEPHI'),
a.COLUMN_2=
(SELECT DISTINCT b2.COLUMN_2
FROM TABLE_B b2
WHERE b2.RELATED_COLUMN_1=
a.COLUMN_1 AND
b2.RELATED_COLUMN_TYPE_CD = 'NEPHI' AND
b2.RELATED_COLUMN_2= a.COLUMN_2)
WHERE a.COLUMN_1 = 100
The table structure is as follows:
TABLE_A: (primary keys are bolded) This is an associative table.
Column_1 and Column_2 comprise the pk of one table; Column_3 and Column_4
comprise the pk of another table. Assume that the Column_1 and Column_2
values replacing the original values already exist in the parent table of
which they form the pk).
COLUMN_1
COLUMN_2
COLUMN_3
COLUMN_4
COLUMN_5
TABLE_B: (primary keys are bolded) This is a reference table.
COLUMN_1
COLUMN_2
RELATED_COLUMN_1
RELATED_COLUMN_2
RELATED_COLUMN_TYPE_CD

If you do an explain plan or set autotrace on against this update statement,
you'll find that the select operations are actually executed first by Oracle
- I believe because of the nature of the transaction. Thus, no problem.

4 Simple Flash Questions that Are Stumping Me!

What is the Frame Rate for Web Animations
Q1. I am making an animation which will be played on the web. What is the default frame rate (fps) of Flash CS5? And what is the frame rate of for web?
Q2. My animation needs to be 30 seconds long. So at 15 fps that would mean I need to use 600 frames in Flash?
How Do I Mask everything so all I see is the Content on the Stage?
I have a wide image that extends past my movies stage size so when I preview my movie the image is visible. How do I mask out anything that extends past my movies window size? I believe I can create a layer named "mask" and place it above all other layers, but I forget how to make the mask. Any help is appreciated.
How to Fade a Graphic
I have a graphic element (some type) and I want it to fade from 0% to 100%. In older versions of Flash I could just select the symbol and then set it's alpha value to 0%, move a few keyframes and then set the alpha to 100%. Voila! but now it doesn't seem to work that way. How can I do this in CS5?

Ned, it says 24 fps which means there is 24 frames per second so each 24 frames is 1 second.

1 You can create your character as a movieclip and copy/paste that movieclip from one file to another. 2. One way to create a movieclip is to copy all the frame of the animation's timeline (select them all, right click the selection, choose Copy Frames), then create a new movieclip symbol (Insert -> New Symbol...etc) right click on its only keyframe and chhose Paste Frames. THat will put all the layers and frames you copied into the movieclip The only way to come close to being certain about the timing of you animation is to use code to keep track of the time, something like getTimer().. The frame rate that a file plays at is not a reliable means of dictating the time it takes due to a variety of factors which include the amount of content you are trying to process and performance limits of the user's machine.

Simple performance question

Simple performance question. the simplest way possible, assume
I have a int[][][][][] matrix, and a boolean add. The array is several dimensions long.
When add is true, I must add a constant value to each element in the array.
When add is false, I must subtract a constant value to each element in the array.
Assume this is very hot code, i.e. it is called very often. How expensive is the condition checking? I present the two scenarios.
private void process(){
for (int i=0;i<dimension1;i++)
for (int ii=0;ii<dimension1;ii++)
for (int iii=0;iii<dimension1;iii++)
    for (int iiii=0;iiii<dimension1;iiii++)
         if (add)
         matrix[i][ii][iii][...] += constant;
         else
         matrix[i][ii][iii][...] -= constant;
private void process(){
if (add)
for (int i=0;i<dimension1;i++)
for (int ii=0;ii<dimension1;ii++)
for (int iii=0;iii<dimension1;iii++)
    for (int iiii=0;iiii<dimension1;iiii++)
         matrix[i][ii][iii][...] += constant;
else
for (int i=0;i<dimension1;i++)
for (int ii=0;ii<dimension1;ii++)
for (int iii=0;iii<dimension1;iii++)
    for (int iiii=0;iiii<dimension1;iiii++)
       matrix[i][ii][iii][...] -= constant;
}Is the second scenario worth a significant performance boost? Without understanding how the compilers generates executable code, it seems that in the first case, n^d conditions are checked, whereas in the second, only 1. It is however, less elegant, but I am willing to do it for a significant improvement.

erjoalgo wrote:
I guess my real question is, will the compiler optimize the condition check out when it realizes the boolean value will not change through these iterations, and if it does not, is it worth doing that micro optimization?Almost certainly not; the main reason being that
matrix[i][ii][iii][...] +/-= constantis liable to take many times longer than the condition check, and you can't avoid it. That said, Mel's suggestion is probably the best.
but I will follow amickr advice and not worry about it.Good idea. Saves you getting flamed with all the quotes about premature optimization.

Bunch of oracle questions

Hi Guys,
I have some oracle questions. What does generating statistics for a table or index
actually do? And what is the difference between estimate statistics and compute
statistics 10% or any other percentage?
How does creating new statistics improve performance?Also, what is brconnect
used for? i saw it being used for statistics as well as some other things.
what are the various uses for it?
And coming to a different topic, can someone tell me the difference between
the rollback segments concept of oracle 8 and the undo tablespace concepts
of oracle 9.
Thanks in advance.
Cyrus

Hi Cyrus,
Q1: What does generating statistics for a table or index ..
A1: The generated statistics are used by the cost based optimizer to compute the optimal execution plan for your Sql statements
Q2: How does creating new statistics improve performance?
A2: Data in your tables change over time. So, not up to date statistics about this data would mean sub optimal results, computing the optimal exec plan for your Sql statements. That is, why your statistics should be up to date.
Q3: And coming to a different topic, can someone tell me the ..

A few simple Logic questions...please help.

I have a few probably simple Logic questions, that are nonetheless frustrating me, wondering if someone could help me out.
1. I run Logic 8, all of the sounds that came with logic seem to work except organ sounds. I can't trigger any organ sounds (MIDI) on Logic, they won't play. I have a Yamaha Motif as my midi controller.
Any idea why?
2. I've starting running into a situation where I will record a MIDI track, the notes are recorded but they won't playback. The only track effected is the one that was just recorded. All other midi tracks playback.
I have to cut the track, usually go out of Logic and back in, re record for it to playback properly. Any idea why this may be happening?
3. How important is it to update to Logic 9. Are there any disadvantages down the road if I don't upgrade. If I purchase the $200 upgrade, do I get a package of discs and material, or it just a web download.
Any help is appreciated!

you titled "simple quick question"...
.. complicated to answer..
a) the TermsOfUse of the iTS don't allow any processing of purchased files, these are "copy protected"..
b) iM has a voice-over function..
c) iM is a video-edit app.. easy to use... just learn to handle it...
d) iM allows to "extract" audio (=muting the original audio, adding your own..)
e) to learn iM, spend some time here: http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/imovie/index.html
f) use pencil and paper first! WRITE and scribble, what shall happen when in your movie/parody... make a script, draw a storyboard .. THEN launch iM.. in other words: think first, then edit.. iM is just a tool, it does not "create"... Picasso needed a papertowel and half a stencil to create art....
g) to get comfortable with iM, start with your own, small, short (3min!) project... import some stills, edit them, add a funny voice-over, add sounds, add music... good? make a bigger one...
h) .. in our Lecture II, we teach you how to import shows from TV, youtube, wherever..

Simple query question

hi all,
I have a XMLType table with one column - I have presently one row, in my column xmlsitedata I have stored one large xml file.The schema definition is given below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <xs:schema elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
- <xs:element name="siteList">
- <xs:complexType>
- <xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="site" type="siteType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
- <xs:complexType name="siteType">
- <xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="nameEn" type="xs:string" />
<xs:element name="nameFr" type="xs:string" />
</xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name="code" type="xs:string" />
</xs:complexType>
</xs:schema>
I have executed the query below:
select x.XMLSITEDATA.extract('/siteList/site/nameEn/text()').getCLOBVal() "stName" from wsitelist x;
and I get all english names of some 200 locations, however, there is 1 row selected and all names show up on one row. How do I split them into 200 or whatever rows?
Thanks,

SOS simple BLOB question

My problem is :
I've got a simple form with the fileupload utility running in web mode. Now, I have to insert the uploaded file into a table. So, I created a table with a BLOB field, and I based my block on this table and added
the field, who is appearing as an image Item.
But : I've got no idea of what to do after that. I saw many thread talking about blob, but I don't understand
what exactely am I supposed to do.
So : It would be great if someone could send me by mail a simple form, with a blob element in the block, and
with a procedure that insert a file in the blob (with the directory and the filename in parameter), and an
other procedure that read the blob, so that the file can appear in the form after the query.
Other question : is a word or excel document can appear in the blob field, as if it was a picture ?
Thanks a lot !
My mail : [email protected]
My cfg : form6i 6.0.20.1

Thanks Kuassi,
Thats exactly what is happening. When I delete, it deletes the file that the Blob points to.
I was hoping that Oracle would be smart enough to know that if you delete a record that has a blob pointer which points to Blob data that is referenced by other records, it wouldn't delete the Blob data, but just the pointer.
Ill have a read of your blog too!

Simple Report Question

Post Author: scott123
CA Forum: General
I want to take the information in a simple excel table and recreate it 3 times, each time sorting/grouping on a different columnHere is the tableAnd here is the report that I'm trying to generate (first sorted by name, alphabetically, then grouped by rank, then grouped by size) I'm comfortable working with excel tables in Crystal, but I'm running into a problem repeating the information and then sorting each group separately. I also have no problem doing each group in a single report (without repeating any records), but I'd like to include all 3 groups in a single report. My apologies for how remedial this question is- I thought for sure that Crystal could do this easily but I've spent a couple of days on this and am running into a brick wall.

That's right Scott, and maybe make them "on demand"
sub reports so the user only has to see the data they
really want at the moment. Gives the report a nice clean look too.

A simple security question

I'm trying to write a simple self-signed applet that use a jca provider but thi exception "java.security.SecurityPermission putProviderProperty.BC" is thrown. if I use a policy file, it works fine but for a beginner user is not very useful intall a new policy file.
After this I tried to write a new self-signed applet that read a file and open a ServerSocket on port 21, and it work fine without a new policy file!
My question is this: why is needed a policy file to add a provider and not to open a ServerSoket or read/write a file???????
PS
if u have an idea to resolve my problem without a policy file, tell me pls!!! IT'S URGENT!!

An applet works out of a so-called sandbox. The security restrictions can be overcome in one of two ways that you have tried:
1) by the use of a policy file, or
2) by signing the applet
So, to answer your question:
My question is this: why is needed a policy file to add a provider and not to open a ServerSoket or read/write a file???????Since the applet is signed, there is no need for a policy file......if you tried to access the socket without signing the applet, you'll get the security exception!
;o)

A somewhat simple security question......

If a mac running macosx has two separate user accounts, lets say one admin and the other a standard user, or both admins or both standard users.....
Is it possible for a hacked/penetrated account on one of the users to affect or read any info from the other user on the same machine ?
What application is in question; Safari lets say.....

So, no functionality. What about that java applet I need to run 10 hours a day. Do you think I should go out of business over it? Or all my QT movies? Or, deprive myself of Flash, so I can't view the content of websites?
So, lets say you browse www.thissiteisinfected.com and have everything uninstalled (see above), and your smart enough to browse the web using a "STANDARD" user account and not the "ADMIN" user account.
Running from a standard user buys you nothing and adds additional steps. If you want to download an app, before you install, you will get a dialog warn you "XXXX is an application you downloaded from the internet..." So, you still have to authenticate. And what about *all the apps that need no authentication to install?*
You tell me how this website will inject crap into your MAC with the settings above???
There is no way to FORCE CODE into your browser if everything is disabled.
Tell me how it can "inject crap" into my "Mac" admin without my complicity.
I have bumped into a rouge antivirus website while on my macbook using safari.
All of a sudden a popup stated i had spyware, i could'nt close the box/window, I had to do a FORCE QUIT on SAFARI to get out of that page. It pretty much hijacked SAFARI.
This is nothing that can harm you. It is annoying having to force quit over it, but that is all.
My safari download settings place things on my desktop, sure enuff, there was a .EXE file sitting on my macbooks desktop.
Sure enough, your Mac can't do a thing with it.
NOTHING IS BULLETPROOF.
I agree but there are simpler ways to plant a rootkit you overlook, that have nothing to do admin accounts or ports. *The question is, who would want to?* Even if a black hat is randomly hunting for bank account numbers, social security numbers, credit card numbers, etc. he would pass up a UNIX based system with good protections in place for an easier target.
In short, in a home environment, I could never recommend running from a standard user. Especially if they are on a router and/or using OS X firewall. (The exception being if you have kids and want to use parental controls.) I have no idea how this mantra about using a non-admin account started, there is no place where Apple recommends this.
