Sql and Jsp

Sir
I am using MSSQL for my application
i want to know what to write in class.forNAme and Drivermanger.getconnction.
Please help me
Thanks in advance

For this, you need to check the docs related to MSSQL. That quite depends upopn the database one is using.

  • Integration of PL/SQL and JSP (Java Server Pages)

    I need to match a web application developed with PL/SQL with another developed in JSP (Java Server Pages) the problem is that the two apps interact with the same databese, an share de same users, I need to know how to get the user and password loged into pl/sql when the user want to use same of de .jsp pages running on another application server?

    Hi Michael Vstling,
    Did you try the java classes library (SDOAPI) that can be downloaded from OTN?
    It may provide you with a better alternative when manipulating geometries in the Java space. There is an adapter in SDOAPI which can convert a JDBC STRUCT object into Java Geometry object defined in SDOAPI, and vice versa.
    There are at least two ways in mixing PL/SQL and Java. The first one, as you mentioned, is to define your custom function in terms of PL/SQL and call it from within your Java program. With SDOAPI, you have the second option, which is to define your own functions in Java using SDOAPI and deploy them as Java stored procedures in db. You can then call them from within your PL/SQL code. In either way performance depends on a lot of things and generally it requires a "try and improve" approach.
    About JPublisher and sdo_ordinate_array it may not be a spatial related problem. Did you try search the Java-related forums first?

  • SQL and JSP compatablility

    This part of code is not working properly as the JSP code has not been encorporated properly in the sql statement after LIKE.
    java.sql.ResultSet RS = statement.executeQuery("SELECT BookID, Ebook.AuthorID, Surname, BookTitle, FileSize, Description, Price, Image FROM Author INNER JOIN Ebook ON Author.AuthorID = Ebook.AuthorID WHERE BookTitle LIKE '*" + bookTitle2 + "*' AND Surname LIKE '*" + surname2 + "*'");
    It doesn't display the shopping cart but if I change the sql code to:
    WHERE BookTitle LIKE '* queen *' AND Surname LIKE '**'
    It works so I know its not the SQL code. I have included the code for the entire page below in case you spot any glaring mistakes.

  • WL vs. WL-express and JSP vs. javascript/SQL

    folks-
    i am trying to convince a certain party to
    disband a web-based job tracking system being
    written in ASP, javascript, html, css and SQL.
    it will be hosted on MS webserver running NT.
    i am trying to convince them to use JSP and
    WL express. i have done two years of EJB
    component work on weblogic, however, i have not
    done work with JSP or thin-clients. i was mostly
    business-logic.
    anyway i have some questions and need some
    direction. i already know JSP is better than
    ASP/javascript etc. because:
    * ASP is proprietary. ditto for VBscript
    * with an IDE creating JSP is easy and JSP
    automatically creates servlets which is way
    faster than by hand
    * JSP is JAVA based and hence benefits from
    all the portability pluses of JAVA
    but here are the more difficult questions:
    * why is WL express better than an MS
    web server? (not including WL market share
    and size. after all MS can claim that)
    * since WL express does not have an EJB
    container, how do you access the database?
    via JDBC? does one just have JDBC code
    floating around?
    * since there is no EJB container how does
    one separate presentation from logic from
    data access? this is a major downside of
    javascript, html, css and SQL etc.
    * if a web app grows beyond JSP with WL express
    into the need for an EJB container, i would
    think that most of the app needs to re-written
    as business-logic must be refactored into EJBs
    and all JDBC code will be replaced by container
    managed beans. this sounds a like a lot of
    rework.
    * isn't JSP slower than javascript as the
    servlet and hmtl code is bounced back and
    force across the network?
    with respect to architecture, scalability,
    and robustness what are the downsides to an
    MS webserver and non-JSP coding?

    * since WL express does not have an EJB
    container, how do you access the database?

    Use JDO or an OR-mapper or embed JDBC into your own data access classes.
    * since there is no EJB container how does
    one separate presentation from logic from
    data access? this is a major downside of
    javascript, html, css and SQL etc.
    Presentation=JSP
    Logic=Servlet
    Data access=JDO or similar

    You should be able to tell up front if it a tx-intensive app that requires
    WLS.
    * isn't JSP slower than javascript as the

    force across the network?
    They aren't exclusive. For dynamic pages, use Javascript on the front end,
    JSP on the back.
    * with respect to architecture, scalability,
    and robustness what are the downsides to an
    MS webserver and non-JSP coding?
    In the real world, and for most apps, while Java has the architectural edge,
    they both have similar scalability and similar robustness. MS gives you no
    choice though, and you rewrite every time they see a new buzzword. You can't
    leave MS-land without abandoning almost everything. You can leave WLS in a
    week if you have to.
    It's an investment. Invest wisely.

  • PL/SQL and Java implementation

    Hi all,
    We need to implement a fast solution for reporting to our existing web application. Application is totally based on stored procedures written in PL/SQL.
    We have already java classes for drawing different types of charts
    named Chartdirector (http://www.advsofteng.com/)
    This library can create chart images in memory.
    I have already read about calling java classes from PL/SQL and SQLJ too.
    My questions are;
    1. Is this safe to include classes to database and create
    reports by using loadjava in real life. I mean not in theory, in real life?
    2. Is there any experiments of the audience about this method?
    3. Would it be any performance problems about this?
    4. Should i prefer to use any Java container and jsps instead of this method?
    I will continue to research for necessary steps after i could see the light :)
    Thank you to all,
    Regards,
    Gokhan

    > 1. Is this safe to include classes to database and create
    reports by using loadjava in real life. I mean not in theory, in real life?
    Yes.
    > 2. Is there any experiments of the audience about this method?
    Experiments and actual implementation - yes. It works. Granted, it does not always work as easy as running the Java code from the command line. But it does work.
    > 3. Would it be any performance problems about this?
    This is a potential problem with any software code.
    4. Should i prefer to use any Java container and jsps instead of this method?
    To be honest, I prefer not using Java for web graphics as I'm not impressed with the quality and flexibility of the graphs generated. I prefer using (and paying for commercial use) for the JPGraph classes for PHP - and using that from PL/SQL (via Zend Core for Oracle).
    Another option is to use SVG and generated SVG directly from PL/SQL. But this requires a browser plugin and SVG also does not look that great. (this is btw what Oracle's HTMLDB does and uses)

  • Javabeans and JSP

    I am new to Beans and JSP. I would like to know how I can 'get' the resultset and output to a JSP? It would have a few records and each record will have field1,field2 and field3.
    My question again: How to continue from here in Beans? How to write the code in JSP? Can anyone guide me with some simple codes as I would not be able to understand advance codes.
    Thanks.
    public String Login(String inputDep) throws SQLException
              String returnString = null;
              String dbUserid = "sa"; // Your Database user id
              String dbPassword = "" ; // Your Database password

                   String sql= "select * from Product where dept = '"+inputDep+"'";
                   ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql);

    You could also try to read the resultset in your bean.
    like:
    =========== Bean ===============
    public class myClass
    public AccountData Login(String name, String password)
    AccountData data = new AccountData ();
    data.setName (resultset.getString ("name"));
    //other setter methods
    return data;
    // use inner class to store values
    public class AccountData
        AccountData ()
        private String name = null;
        //further attributes
        pubilic String getName ()
            return name;
        void setName (String name)
            this.name = name;
        //further getter and setter
    }=========== JSP ===============
    <jsp:useBean id="myBean" scope="session" class="classes.BeanClass"/>
    <% MyClass.AccountData data = myBean.Login (name, password); %>

  • JDBC installation for servlets and jsp

    Hello All,
    I am trying to use JDBC for my web application. i have a book but not very detailed and cannot find a good search on google.
    they have said that the ODBC-JDBC bridge driver comes with jdk1.2 or forward. and ask me to set up an ODBC data source. so i went in control panel/systems tab and then try to add SQL and then when click finish it asks me how to connect to sql server, i entered my usename and password but says connection failed.
    This is my worst nightmare. please help so i can start building web application using servlets and jsp.

    Let me tell you right now, you have BORING nightmares.

  • Oracle SQL and PL/SQL interview questions.

    Can anyone forward me all Oracle SQL and PL/SQL Interview questions and answers asap.
    Many Thanks.
    Bba

    Dear Pal
    I not sure all the all answers are correct. I got one mail couple yrs back. I am just sharing mail contents. Kindly keep question and compare answers.
    1 Which is more faster - IN or EXISTS?
    EXISTS is more faster than IN because EXISTS returns a Boolean value whereas IN returns a value.
    2 Which datatype is used for storing graphics and images?
    LONG RAW data type is used for storing BLOB's (binary large objects).
    3 When do you use WHERE clause and when do you use HAVING clause?
    HAVING clause is used when you want to specify a condition for a group function and it is written after GROUP BY clause. The WHERE clause is used when you want to specify a condition for columns, single row functions except group functions and it is written before GROUP BY clause if it is used.
    4 What WHERE CURRENT OF clause does in a cursor?
    LOOPSELECT num_credits INTO v_numcredits FROM classesWHERE dept=123 and course=101;UPDATE studentsSET current_credits=current_credits+v_numcreditsWHERE CURRENT OF X;END LOOPCOMMIT;END;
    5 What should be the return type for a cursor variable.Can we use a scalar data type as return type?
    The return type for a cursor must be a record type.It can be declared explicitly as a user-defined or %ROWTYPE can be used. eg TYPE t_studentsref IS REF CURSOR RETURN students%ROWTYPE
    6 What is use of a cursor variable? How it is defined?
    A cursor variable is associated with different statements at run time, which can hold different values at run time. Static cursors can only be associated with one run time query. A cursor variable is reference type (like a pointer in C).Declaring a cursor variable:TYPE type_name IS REF CURSOR RETURN return_type type_name is the name of the reference type,return_type is a record type indicating the types of the select list that will eventually be returned by the cursor variable.
    7 What is the purpose of a cluster?
    Oracle does not allow a user to specifically locate tables, since that is a part of the function of the RDBMS. However, for the purpose of increasing performance, oracle allows a developer to create a CLUSTER. A CLUSTER provides a means for storing data from different tables together for faster retrieval than if the table placement were left to the RDBMS.
    8 What is the maximum buffer size that can be specified using the DBMS_OUTPUT.ENABLE function?
    1,000,00
    9 What is syntax for dropping a procedure and a function .Are these operations possible?
    Drop Procedure procedure_nameDrop Function function_name
    10 What is OCI. What are its uses?
    Oracle Call Interface is a method of accesing database from a 3GL program. Uses--No precompiler is required,PL/SQL blocks are executed like other DML statements. The OCI library provides· -functions to parse SQL statemets· -bind input variables· -bind output variables· -execute statements· -fetch the results
    11 What is difference between UNIQUE and PRIMARY KEY constraints?
    A table can have only one PRIMARY KEY whereas there can be any number of UNIQUE keys. The columns that compose PK are automatically define NOT NULL, whereas a column that compose a UNIQUE is not automatically defined to be mandatory must also specify the column is NOT NULL.
    12 What is difference between SUBSTR and INSTR?
    SUBSTR returns a specified portion of a string eg SUBSTR('BCDEF',4) output BCDEINSTR provides character position in which a pattern is found in a string. eg INSTR('ABC-DC-F','-',2) output 7 (2nd occurence of '-')
    13 What is difference between SQL and SQL*PLUS?
    SQL*PLUS is a command line tool where as SQL and PL/SQL language interface and reporting tool. Its a command line tool that allows user to type SQL commands to be executed directly against an Oracle database. SQL is a language used to query the relational database(DML,DCL,DDL). SQL*PLUS commands are used to format query result, Set options, Edit SQL commands and PL/SQL.
    14 What is difference between Rename and Alias?
    Rename is a permanent name given to a table or column whereas Alias is a temporary name given to a table or column which do not exist once the SQL statement is executed.
    15 What is difference between a formal and an actual parameter?
    The variables declared in the procedure and which are passed, as arguments are called actual, the parameters in the procedure declaration. Actual parameters contain the values that are passed to a procedure and receive results. Formal parameters are the placeholders for the values of actual parameters
    16 What is an UTL_FILE.What are different procedures and functions associated with it?
    UTL_FILE is a package that adds the ability to read and write to operating system files. Procedures associated with it are FCLOSE, FCLOSE_ALL and 5 procedures to output data to a file PUT, PUT_LINE, NEW_LINE, PUTF, FFLUSH.PUT, FFLUSH.PUT_LINE,FFLUSH.NEW_LINE. Functions associated with it are FOPEN, ISOPEN.
    17 What is a view ?
    A view is stored procedure based on one or more tables, it’s a virtual table.
    18 What is a pseudo column. Give some examples?
    It is a column that is not an actual column in the table.eg USER, UID, SYSDATE, ROWNUM, ROWID, NULL, AND LEVEL.
    19 What is a OUTER JOIN?
    Outer Join--Its a join condition used where you can query all the rows of one of the tables in the join condition even though they don’t satisfy the join condition.
    20 What is a cursor?
    Oracle uses work area to execute SQL statements and store processing information PL/SQL construct called a cursor lets you name a work area and access its stored information A cursor is a mechanism used to fetch more than one row in a Pl/SQl block.
    21 What is a cursor for loop?
    Cursor For Loop is a loop where oracle implicitly declares a loop variable, the loop index that of the same record type as the cursor's record.
    22 What are various privileges that a user can grant to another user?
    · SELECT· CONNECT· RESOURCES
    23 What are various constraints used in SQL?
    · NULL· NOT NULL· CHECK· DEFAULT
    24 What are ORACLE PRECOMPILERS?
    Using ORACLE PRECOMPILERS, SQL statements and PL/SQL blocks can be contained inside 3GL programs written in C,C++,COBOL,PASCAL, FORTRAN,PL/1 AND ADA.The Precompilers are known as Pro*C,Pro*Cobol,...This form of PL/SQL is known as embedded pl/sql,the language in which pl/sql is embedded is known as the host language. The prcompiler translates the embedded SQL and pl/sql ststements into calls to the precompiler runtime library.The output must be compiled and linked with this library to creater an executable.
    25 What are different Oracle database objects?
    · TABLES· VIEWS· INDEXES· SYNONYMS· SEQUENCES· TABLESPACES etc
    26 What are different modes of parameters used in functions and procedures?
    · IN· OUT· INOUT
    27 What are cursor attributes?
    · %ROWCOUNT· %NOTFOUND· %FOUND· %ISOPEN
    28 What a SELECT FOR UPDATE cursor represent. [ANSWER]SELECT......FROM......FOR......UPDATE[OF column-reference][NOWAIT] The processing done in a fetch loop modifies the rows that have been retrieved by the cursor. A convenient way of modifying the rows is done by a method with two parts: the FOR UPDATE clause in the cursor declaration, WHERE CURRENT OF CLAUSE in an UPDATE or declaration statement.
    29 There is a string 120000 12 0 .125 , how you will find the position of the decimal place?
    INSTR('120000 12 0 .125',1,'.')output 13
    30 There is a % sign in one field of a column. What will be the query to find it?
    '' Should be used before '%'.
    31 Suppose a customer table is having different columns like customer no, payments.What will be the query to select top three max payments?
    SELECT customer_no, payments from customer C1
    WHERE 3<=(SELECT COUNT(*) from customer C2
    WHERE C1.payment <= C2.payment)
    32 minvalue.sql Select the Nth lowest value from a table
    select level, min('col_name') from my_table where level = '&n' connect by prior ('col_name') <
    'col_name')
    group by level;
    Example:
    Given a table called emp with the following columns:
    -- id number
    -- name varchar2(20)
    -- sal number
    -- For the second lowest salary:
    -- select level, min(sal) from emp
    -- where level=2
    -- connect by prior sal < sal
    -- group by level
    33 maxvalue.sql Select the Nth Highest value from a table
    select level, max('col_name') from my_table where level = '&n' connect by prior ('col_name') >
    'col_name')
    group by level;
    Example:
    Given a table called emp with the following columns:
    -- id number
    -- name varchar2(20)
    -- sal number
    -- For the second highest salary:
    -- select level, max(sal) from emp
    -- where level=2
    -- connect by prior sal > sal
    -- group by level
    34 How you will avoid your query from using indexes?
    SELECT * FROM emp
    Where emp_no+' '=12345;
    i.e you have to concatenate the column name with space within codes in the where condition.
    SELECT /*+ FULL(a) */ ename, emp_no from emp
    where emp_no=1234;
    i.e using HINTS
    35 How you will avoid duplicating records in a query?
    By using DISTINCT
    36 How you were passing cursor variables in PL/SQL 2.2?
    In PL/SQL 2.2 cursor variables cannot be declared in a package.This is because the storage for a cursor variable has to be allocated using Pro*C or OCI with version 2.2, the only means of passing a cursor variable to a PL/SQL block is via bind variable or a procedure parameter.
    37 How you open and close a cursor variable.Why it is required?
    OPEN cursor variable FOR SELECT...Statement
    CLOSE cursor variable In order to associate a cursor variable with a particular SELECT statement OPEN syntax is used. In order to free the resources used for the query CLOSE statement is used.
    38 How will you delete duplicating rows from a base table?
    delete from table_name where rowid not in (select max(rowid) from table group by duplicate_values_field_name); or
    delete duplicate_values_field_name dv from table_name ta where rowid <(select min(rowid) from table_name tb where ta.dv=tb.dv);
    39 How do you find the numbert of rows in a Table ?
    A bad answer is count them (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table_name)
    A good answer is :-
    'By generating SQL to ANALYZE TABLE table_name COUNT STATISTICS by querying Oracle System Catalogues (e.g. USER_TABLES or ALL_TABLES).
    The best answer is to refer to the utility which Oracle released which makes it unnecessary to do ANALYZE TABLE for each Table individually.
    40 Find out nth highest salary from emp table
    SELECT DISTINCT (a.sal) FROM EMP A WHERE &N = (SELECT COUNT (DISTINCT (b.sal)) FROM EMP B WHERE a.sal<=b.sal);
    For Eg:-
    Enter value for n: 2
    SAL
    3700
    41 Display the records between two range?
    select rownum, empno, ename from emp where rowid in (select rowid from emp where rownum <=&upto minus select rowid from emp where rownum<&Start);
    42 Display the number value in Words?
    SQL> select sal, (to_char(to_date(sal,'j'), 'jsp'))
    from emp;
    the output like,
    SAL (TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(SAL,'J'),'JSP'))
    800 eight hundred
    1600 one thousand six hundred
    1250 one thousand two hundred fifty
    If you want to add some text like, Rs. Three Thousand only.
    SQL> select sal "Salary ",
    (' Rs. '|| (to_char(to_date(sal,'j'), 'Jsp'))|| ' only.'))
    "Sal in Words" from emp
    Salary Sal in Words
    800 Rs. Eight Hundred only.
    1600 Rs. One Thousand Six Hundred only.
    1250 Rs. One Thousand Two Hundred Fifty only.
    43 Display Odd/ Even number of records
    Odd number of records:
    select * from emp where (rowid,1) in (select rowid, mod(rownum,2) from emp);
    Output:-
    1
    3
    5
    Even number of records:
    select * from emp where (rowid,0) in (select rowid, mod(rownum,2) from emp)
    Output:-
    2
    4
    6
    44 Difference between procedure and function.
    Functions are named PL/SQL blocks that return a value and can be called with arguments procedure a named block that can be called with parameter. A procedure all is a PL/SQL statement by itself, while a Function call is called as part of an expression.
    45 Difference between NO DATA FOUND and %NOTFOUND
    NO DATA FOUND is an exception raised only for the SELECT....INTO statements when the where clause of the querydoes not match any rows. When the where clause of the explicit cursor does not match any rows the %NOTFOUND attribute is set to TRUE instead.
    46 Difference between database triggers and form triggers?
    Data base trigger(DBT) fires when a DML operation is performed on a data base table. Form trigger(FT) Fires when user presses a key or navigates between fields on the screen
    Can be row level or statement level No distinction between row level and statement level.
    Can manipulate data stored in Oracle tables via SQL Can manipulate data in Oracle tables as well as variables in forms.
    Can be fired from any session executing the triggering DML statements. Can be fired only from the form that define the trigger.
    Can cause other database triggers to fire.Can cause other database triggers to fire, but not other form triggers.
    47 Difference between an implicit & an explicit cursor.
    PL/SQL declares a cursor implicitly for all SQL data manipulation statements, including quries that return only one row. However,queries that return more than one row you must declare an explicit cursor or use a cursor FOR loop.
    Explicit cursor is a cursor in which the cursor name is explicitly assigned to a SELECT statement via the CURSOR...IS statement. An implicit cursor is used for all SQL statements Declare, Open, Fetch, Close. An explicit cursors are used to process multirow SELECT statements An implicit cursor is used to process INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE and single row SELECT. .INTO statements.
    48 Can you use a commit statement within a database trigger?
    No.
    49 Can the default values be assigned to actual parameters?
    Yes
    50 Can cursor variables be stored in PL/SQL tables.If yes how. If not why?
    No, a cursor variable points a row which cannot be stored in a two-dimensional PL/SQL table.
    51 Can a primary key contain more than one columns?
    Yes
    52 Can a function take OUT parameters. If not why?
    No. A function has to return a value,an OUT parameter cannot return a value.
    53 What are various joins used while writing SUBQUERIES?
    Self join-Its a join foreign key of a table references the same table. Outer Join--Its a join condition used where One can query all the rows of one of the tables in the join condition even though they don't satisfy the join condition.
    Equi-join--Its a join condition that retrieves rows from one or more tables in which one or more columns in one table are equal to one or more columns in the second table.
    54 Differentiate between TRUNCATE and DELETE
    TRUNCATE deletes much faster than DELETE
    TRUNCATE
    DELETE
    It is a DDL statement It is a DML statement
    It is a one way trip,cannot ROLLBACK One can Rollback
    Doesn't have selective features (where clause) Has
    Doesn't fire database triggers Does
    It requires disabling of referential constraints. Does not require

    A stored procedure is a sequence of statements that perform specific function.
    16 What is a database trigger ? Name some usages of database trigger ?
    Database trigger is stored PL/SQL program unit associated with a specific database table. Usages are Audit data modifications, Log events transparently, Enforce complex business rules Derive column values automatically, Implement complex security authorizations. Maintain replicate tables.
    17 What is a cursor for loop ?
    Cursor for loop implicitly declares %ROWTYPE as loop index,opens a cursor, fetches rows of values from active set into fields in the record and closes
    when all the records have been processed.
    eg. FOR emp_rec IN C1 LOOP
    salary_total := salary_total +emp_rec sal;
    END LOOP;
    18 What is a cursor ? Why Cursor is required ?
    Cursor is a named private SQL area from where information can be accessed. Cursors are required to process rows individually for queries returning multiple rows.
    19 What happens if a procedure that updates a column of table X is called in a database trigger of the same table ?
    Mutation of table occurs.
    20 What are two virtual tables available during database trigger execution ?
    The table columns are referred as OLD.column_name and NEW.column_name.
    For triggers related to INSERT only NEW.column_name values only available.
    For triggers related to UPDATE only OLD.column_name NEW.column_name values only available.
    For triggers related to DELETE only OLD.column_name values only available.
    21 What are two parts of package ?
    The two parts of package are PACKAGE SPECIFICATION & PACKAGE BODY.
    Package Specification contains declarations that are global to the packages and local to the schema.
    Package Body contains actual procedures and local declaration of the procedures and cursor declarations.
    22 What are the two parts of a procedure ?
    Procedure Specification and Procedure Body.
    23 What are the return values of functions SQLCODE and SQLERRM ?
    SQLCODE returns the latest code of the error that has occurred.
    SQLERRM returns the relevant error message of the SQLCODE.
    24 What are the PL/SQL Statements used in cursor processing ?
    DECLARE CURSOR cursor name, OPEN cursor name, FETCH cursor name INTO or Record types, CLOSE cursor name.
    25 What are the modes of parameters that can be passed to a procedure ?
    IN,OUT,IN-OUT parameters.
    26 What are the datatypes a available in PL/SQL ?
    Some scalar data types such as NUMBER, VARCHAR2, DATE, CHAR, LONG, BOOLEAN.
    Some composite data types such as RECORD & TABLE.
    27 What are the cursor attributes used in PL/SQL ?
    %ISOPEN - to check whether cursor is open or not
    % ROWCOUNT - number of rows fetched/updated/deleted.
    % FOUND - to check whether cursor has fetched any row. True if rows are fetched.
    % NOT FOUND - to check whether cursor has fetched any row. True if no rows are featched.
    These attributes are proceeded with SQL for Implicit Cursors and with Cursor name for Explicit Cursors.
    28 What are the components of a PL/SQL Block ?
    Declarative part, Executable part and Exception part.
    Datatypes PL/SQL
    29 What are the components of a PL/SQL block ?
    A set of related declarations and procedural statements is called block.
    30 What are advantages fo Stored Procedures /
    Extensibility,Modularity, Reusability, Maintainability and one time compilation.
    31 Name the tables where characteristics of Package, procedure and functions are stored ?
    User_objects, User_Source and User_error.
    32 Is it possible to use Transaction control Statements such a ROLLBACK or COMMIT in Database Trigger ? Why ?
    It is not possible. As triggers are defined for each table, if you use COMMIT of ROLLBACK in a trigger, it affects logical transaction processing.
    33 How packaged procedures and functions are called from the following?
    a. Stored procedure or anonymous block
    b. an application program such a PRC C, PRO COBOL
    c. SQL *PLUS
    a. PACKAGE NAME.PROCEDURE NAME (parameters);
    variable := PACKAGE NAME.FUNCTION NAME (arguments);
    EXEC SQL EXECUTE
    b.
    BEGIN
    PACKAGE NAME.PROCEDURE NAME (parameters)
    variable := PACKAGE NAME.FUNCTION NAME (arguments);
    END;
    END EXEC;
    c. EXECUTE PACKAGE NAME.PROCEDURE if the procedures does not have any
    out/in-out parameters. A function can not be called.

    Insert Update Delete
    Before Row o.k. o.k. o.k.
    After Row o.k. o.k. o.k.
    Before Statement o.k. o.k. o.k.
    After Statement o.k. o.k. o.k.
    If FOR EACH ROW clause is specified, then the trigger for each Row affected by the statement.
    If WHEN clause is specified, the trigger fires according to the returned Boolean value.

    WHERE CURRENT OF clause in an UPDATE,DELETE statement refers to the latest row fetched from a cursor.
    Database Triggers
    38 Explain the two type of Cursors ?
    There are two types of cursors, Implicit Cursor and Explicit Cursor.
    PL/SQL uses Implicit Cursors for queries.
    User defined cursors are called Explicit Cursors. They can be declared and used.
    39 Explain how procedures and functions are called in a PL/SQL block ?
    Function is called as part of an expression.
    sal := calculate_sal ('a822');

    Programmatic Constructs
    Last Update: September 06, 2004
    1 What are the different types of PL/SQL program units that can be defined and stored in ORACLE database ?
    Procedures and Functions,Packages and Database Triggers.
    2 What are the differences between Database Trigger and Integrity constraints ?
    A declarative integrity constraint is a statement about the database that is always true. A constraint applies to existing data in the table and any statement that manipulates the table.
    A trigger does not apply to data loaded before the definition of the trigger, therefore, it does not guarantee all data in a table conforms to the rules established by an associated trigger.
    A trigger can be used to enforce transitional constraints where as a declarative integrity constraint cannot be used.
    3 What is difference between Procedures and Functions ?
    A Function returns a value to the caller where as a Procedure does not.
    4 What is Database Trigger ?
    A Database Trigger is procedure (set of SQL and PL/SQL statements) that is automatically executed as a result of an insert in,update to, or delete from a table.
    5 What is a Procedure ?
    A Procedure consist of a set of SQL and PL/SQL statements that are grouped together as a unit to solve a specific problem or perform a set of related tasks.
    6 What is a Package ?
    A Package is a collection of related procedures, functions, variables and other package constructs together as a unit in the database.
    7 What are the uses of Database Trigger ?
    Database triggers can be used to automatic data generation, audit data modifications, enforce complex Integrity constraints, and customize complex security authorizations.
    8 What are the advantages of having a Package ?
    Increased functionality (for example,global package variables can be declared and used by any proecdure in the package) and performance (for example all objects of the package are parsed compiled, and loaded into memory once)
    1 With which function of summary item is the compute at options required?
    percentage of total functions.
    2 Why is it preferable to create a fewer no. of queries in the data model?
    Because for each query, report has to open a separate cursor and has to rebind, execute and fetch data.
    3 Why is a Where clause faster than a group filter or a format trigger?
    Because, in a where clause the condition is applied during data retrieval than after retrieving the data.
    4 Which parameter can be used to set read level consistency across multiple queries?
    Read only.
    5 Which of the two views should objects according to possession?
    view by structure.
    6 Which of the above methods is the faster method?
    performing the calculation in the query is faster.
    7 Where is the external query executed at the client or the server?
    At the server.
    8 Where is a procedure return in an external pl/sql library executed at the client or at the server?
    At the client.
    9 When do you use data parameter type?
    When the value of a data parameter being passed to a called product is always the name of the record group defined in the current form. Data parameters are used to pass data to produts invoked with the run_product built-in subprogram.
    10 When a form is invoked with call_form, Does oracle forms issues a save point?
    Yes
    11 What are the important difference between property clause and visual attributes?
    Named visual attributes differ only font, color & pattern attributes, property clauses can contain this and any other properties. You can change the appearance of objects at run time by changing the named visual attributes programmatically , property clause assignments cannot be changed programmatically. When an object is inheriting from both a property clause and named visual attribute, the named visual attribute settings take precedence, and any visual attribute properties in the class are ignored.
    12 What use of command line parameter cmd file?
    It is a command line argument that allows you to specify a file that contain a set of arguments for r20run.
    13 What is WHEN-Database-record trigger?
    Fires when oracle forms first marks a record as an insert or an update. The trigger fires as soon as oracle forms determines through validation that the record should be processed by the next post or commit as an insert or update. c generally occurs only when the operators modifies the first item in the record, and after the operator attempts to navigate out of the item.
    14 What is use of term?
    The term file which key is correspond to which oracle report functions.
    15 What is trigger associated with the timer?
    When-timer-expired.
    16 What is the use of transactional triggers?
    Using transactional triggers we can control or modify the default functionality of the oracle forms.
    17 What is the use of place holder column?
    A placeholder column is used to hold calculated values at a specified place rather than allowing is to appear in the actual row where it has to appear.
    18 What is the use of image_zoom built-in?
    To manipulate images in image items.
    19 What is the use of hidden column?
    A hidden column is used to when a column has to embed into boilerplate text.
    20 What is the use of break group?
    A break group is used to display one record for one group ones. While multiple related records in other group can be displayed.
    21 What is the remove on exit property?
    For a modelless window, it determines whether oracle forms hides the window automatically when the operators navigates to an item in the another window.
    22 What is the purpose of the product order option in the column property sheet?
    To specify the order of individual group evaluation in a cross products.
    23 What is the maximum no of chars the parameter can store?
    The maximum no of chars the parameter can store is only valid for char parameters, which can be upto 64K. No parameters default to 23Bytes and Date parameter default to 7Bytes.
    24 What is the main diff. bet. Reports 2.0 & Reports 2.5?
    Report 2.5 is object oriented.
    25 What is the frame & repeating frame?
    A frame is a holder for a group of fields. A repeating frame is used to display a set of records when the no. of records that are to displayed is not known before.
    26 What is the difference between OLE Server & Ole Container?
    An Ole server application creates ole Objects that are embedded or linked in ole Containers ex. Ole servers are ms_word & ms_excel. OLE containers provide a place to store, display and manipulate objects that are created by ole server applications. Ex. oracle forms is an example of an ole Container.
    27 What is the difference between object embedding & linking in Oracle forms?
    In Oracle forms, Embedded objects become part of the form module, and linked objects are references from a form module to a linked source file.
    28 What is the difference between boiler plat images and image items?
    Boiler plate Images are static images (Either vector or bit map) that you import from the file system or database to use a graphical elements in your form, such as company logos and maps. Image items are special types of interface controls that store and display either vector or bitmap images. Like other items that store values, image items can be either base table items(items that relate directly to database columns) or control items. The definition of an image item is stored as part of the form module FMB and FMX files, but no image file is actually associated with an image item until the item is populate at run time.
    29 What is the difference between $$DATE$$ & $$DBDATE$$ $$DBDATE$$ retrieves the current database date $$date$$ retrieves the current operating system date.
    30 What is the diff. when Flex mode is mode on and when it is off?
    When flex mode is on, reports automatically resizes the parent when the child is resized.
    31 What is the diff. when confine mode is on and when it is off?
    When confine mode is on, an object cannot be moved outside its parent in the layout.
    32 What is the diff. bet. setting up of parameters in reports 2.0 reports 2.5?
    LOVs can be attached to parameters in the reports 2.5 parameter form.
    33 What is the advantage of the library?
    Libraries provide a convenient means of storing client-side program units and sharing them among multiple applications. Once you create a library, you can attach it to any other form, menu, or library modules. When you can call library program units from triggers menu items commands and user named routine, you write in the modules to which you have attach the library. When a library attaches another library, program units in the first library can reference program units in the attached library. Library support dynamic loading-that is library program units are loaded into an application only when needed. This can significantly reduce the run-time memory requirements of applications.
    34 What is term?
    The term is terminal definition file that describes the terminal form which you are using r20run.
    35 What is system.coordination_operation?
    It represents the coordination causing event that occur on the master block in master-detail relation.
    36 What is synchronize?
    It is a terminal screen with the internal state of the form. It updates the screen display to reflect the information that oracle forms has in its internal representation of the screen.
    37 What is strip sources generate options?
    Removes the source code from the library file and generates a library files that contains only pcode. The resulting file can be used for final deployment, but can not be subsequently edited in the designer. ex. f45gen module=old_lib.pll userid=scott/tiger strip_source YES output_file
    38 What is relation between the window and canvas views?
    Canvas views are the back ground objects on which you place the interface items (Text items), check boxes, radio groups etc.,) and boilerplate objects (boxes, lines, images etc.,) that operators interact with us they run your form . Each canvas views displayed in a window.
    39 What is pop list?
    The pop list style list item appears initially as a single field (similar to a text item field). When the operator selects the list icon, a list of available choices appears.
    40 What is new_form built-in?
    When one form invokes another form by executing new_form oracle form exits the first form and releases its memory before loading the new form calling new form completely replace the first with the second. If there are changes pending in the first form, the operator will be prompted to save them before the new form is loaded.
    41 What is lexical reference? How can it be created?
    Lexical reference is place_holder for text that can be embedded in a sql statements. A lexical reference can be created using & before the column or parameter name.
    42 What is forms_DDL?
    Issues dynamic Sql statements at run time, including server side pl/SQl and DDL
    43 What is difference between open_form and call_form?
    when one form invokes another form by executing open_form the first form remains displayed, and operators can navigate between the forms as desired. when one form invokes another form by executing call_form, the called form is modal with respect to the calling form. That is, any windows that belong to the calling form are disabled, and operators cannot navigate to them until they first exit the called form.
    44 What is bind reference and how can it be created?
    Bind reference are used to replace the single value in sql, pl/sql statements a bind reference can be created using a (:) before a column or a parameter name.
    45 What is an user exit used for?
    A way in which to pass control (and possibly arguments ) form Oracle report to another Oracle products of 3 GL and then return control ( and ) back to Oracle reports.
    46 What is an OLE?
    Object Linking & Embedding provides you with the capability to integrate objects from many Ms-Windows applications into a single compound document creating integrated applications enables you to use the features form .
    47 What is an object group?
    An object group is a container for a group of objects; you define an object group when you want to package related objects, so that you copy or reference them in other modules.
    48 What is an anchoring object & what is its use?
    An anchoring object is a print condition object which used to explicitly or implicitly anchor other objects to itself.
    49 What is a User_exit?
    Calls the user exit named in the user_exit_string. Invokes a 3Gl program by name which has been properly linked into your current oracle forms executable.
    50 What is a timer?
    Timer is an "internal time clock" that you can programmatically create to perform an action each time the timer expires.
    51 What is a Text_io Package?
    It allows you to read and write information to a file in the file system.
    52 What is a text list?
    The text list style list item appears as a rectangular box which displays the fixed number of values. When the text list contains values that can not be displayed, a vertical scroll bar appears, allowing the operator to view and select undisplayed values.
    53 What is a property clause?
    A property clause is a named object that contains a list of properties and their settings. Once you create a property clause you can base other object on it. An object based on a property can inherit the setting of any property in the clause that makes sense for that object.
    54 What is a physical page ? & What is a logical page ?
    A physical page is a size of a page. That is output by the printer. The logical page is the size of one page of the actual report as seen in the Previewer.
    55 What is a library?
    A library is a collection of subprograms including user named procedures, functions and packages.
    56 What is a difference between pre-select and pre-query?
    Fires during the execute query and count query processing after oracle forms constructs the select statement to be issued, but before the statement is actually issued. The pre-query trigger fires just before oracle forms issues the select statement to the database after the operator as define the example records by entering the query criteria in enter query mode. Pre-query trigger fires before pre-select trigger.
    57 What is a combo box?
    A combo box style list item combines the features found in list and text item. Unlike the pop list or the text list style list items, the combo box style list item will both display fixed values and accept one operator entered value.
    58 What does the term panel refer to with regard to pages?
    A panel is the no. of physical pages needed to print one logical page.
    59 What are visual attributes?
    Visual attributes are the font, color, pattern proprieties that you set for form and menu objects that appear in your application interface.
    60 What are three panes that appear in the run time pl/sql interpreter?
    1.Source pane. 2. interpreter pane. 3. Navigator pane.

  • Server running xsql and JSP

    I made a xsql file (sql in xml file) and I want to deploy it. I have made JSP files too.
    Which server can run xsql and JSP files?
    Oracle 8.1.6 can run xsql and JSP files?
    Thank you

    Check out the [MIMES] section of webtogo.ora file which is located in %JDEVHOME%\lib. There is an entry which defines the handler for .xsql files (which in this case is the XSQL Servlet (oracle.xml.xsql.XSQLServlet). Same goes for jsps. You can run this on any Java enabled web server.
    The version of OAS which will provide this functionality is the soon expected 4.0.8.2

    it seems you have a problem here:
    String connecturl = "jdbc:mysql://mistry:3306/test,user1,test";your better off doing something like this:
              Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance();
              Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, username, password);where url is the url to the database in your case "jdbc:mysql://mistry:3306/test"
    and username and password are the username and password to the database......
    that's one thing, the other is that the username and password have to be approved of mysql, i don't think tha's your problem since the error shows that you supplied and empty username

    After examining your code, I think:
    You are not using JSP/HTML properly (using java to write out HTML). You can spend a tremendous amount of time with trial and error approaches in learning a technology and still not get much real understanding for your effort. I suggest a better use of those hours would be spent in reading a book on Java first, then a book on JSP. For a book on JSP, go to amazon.com and search for 'Javaserver pages'. Find a book that isn't too old and that has good reviews. Here is one (although its a bit dated):
    http://www.amazon.com/JavaServer-Pages-Edition-Hans-Bergsten/dp/0596005636/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1338821741&sr=1-1
    As far your database code goes, I suggest you read on-line articles on JDBC on how to get/use/close a database connection in a try/catch/finally block. The article will probably also help you write better SQL too. I don't think your question on pagination should be tackled until you learn JSP.
