SQL Developer - mapping column names for csv import

In Apex I can do a spreadsheet upload to an existing table and it asks me to map source data to existing table, and it usually has the columns correct. I don't know if it imports them in order or what(first column name in table maps to first column in csv file, etc). SQL Developer makes me choose the mappings myself - it doesn't attempt to do a mapping at all, and some of my fieldnames are exactly the same. Am I missing something? Is there a way to get SQL Developer to try to do the mapping for me?
Note: in apex and sql dev, you should use csv only... they let you choose xls, but xls fails in both products every time.

So I guess SQL developer can't do this?

Java.sql.SQLException: Invalid column name

hi,
i am using query with join and select column with different aliases,
sqlQuery
SELECT client_data.image as IMAGE, franchise.NAME, franchise.FRANCHISE_ID,
cityH.city_name as h_city,
cityO.city_name as o_city,
cityT.city_name as t_city,
countryH.country_name as h_country,
countryO.country_name as o_country,
countryT.country_name as t_country,
client.* from client_data, city cityH, city cityT, city cityO, country countryH, country countryT, country countryO, client, franchise where
cityH.id = client.home_city and
cityT.id = client.temp_city and
cityO.id = client.office_city and
countryH.id = client.HOME_COUNTRY and
countryO.id = client.office_country and
countryT.id = client.TEMP_COUNTRY and
franchise.franchise_id = client.franchise_id and client_data.client_id = client.id and client.id = ?
while executing that query through JDBC, alias column are not in map like h_city, o_city, t_city are not accessible.
System.out.println("h_city "+rowSet.getString("h_city"));
the exception is java.sql.SQLException: Invalid column name.
Kindly give you valuable comments for that..

Hi Balus,
i fixed it by editing jdbc.properties file like
jdbc.url=jdbc:mysql://192.168.100.221:3306/myDb?useOldAliasMetadataBehavior=true
they query is running and returning the whole column i use as allies like h_city (cityH.city_name as h_city).
Thank for your interest.

Finding source database table/column name for a column in a view

Hi i need to be able to identify the original database table/column name for a column in a view.
e.g. say i have a view like this
create v1 as select a.name fname, b.name bname, c.name cname,......
from u1.names a, u2.names b. u3.names c
where .....
Now I want to find out that the database table/column name for the fname, bname and cname columns in the view v1, which in this instance is u1.name.name, u2.names.name, u3.names.name.
But i need to be able to do it for any view. Short of parsing the SQL is there an easy way of doing this?
Now obviusly I can't do this for virtual columns but I will know my column is not virtual as it has an index on it.

But i need to be able to do it for any view. Short of
parsing the SQL is there an easy way of doing this?No, parsing the SQL is the only way. Good luck it is not something I would want to attempt.

Are you sure the datasources point to the right master/work configuration, and that your repository is correctly up-to-date? This looks like the agent trying to connect a repository, but the repository is not updated correctly, or misses some columns. The whole stack (and the name of the missing column) would help of course.

Getting column names for resultMap - Ibatis

Hi friends,
I need to get the column names for the properties specified in sqlMap.xml in my code .
for example: <resultMap id="resmap" class="java.util.HashMap">
<result property="custId" column="cust_id"/>
<result property="routerId" column="router_id"/>
<result property="routerName" column="router_name" jdbcType="CLOB"/>
<result property="device_type" column="device_type"/>
</resultMap>
i need to get the column values in code.........
is there anyway to access the sqlMap.xml file as an instance in Ibatis.

I always use jaxb2 to unmarshall/marshall, works like a charm

How do you get the column names for a given table from an SQL LocalDB programmatically in Visual Basic.

SQL Developer 2.1: Problem exporting and importing unit tests

Hi,
I have created several unit tests on functions that are within packages. I wanted to export these from one unit test repository into another repository on a different database. The export and import work fine, but when running the tests on the imported version, there are lots of ORA-06550 errors. When debugging this, the function name is missing in the call, i.e. it is attempting <SCHEMA>.<PACKAGE> (parameters) instead of <SCHEMA>.<PACKAGE>.<FUNCTION> (parameters).
Looking in the unit test repository itself, it appears that the OBJECT_CALL column in the UT_TEST table is null - if I populate this with the name of the function, then everything works fine. Therefore, this seems to be a bug with export and import, and it is not including this in the XML. The same problem happens whether I export a single unit test or a suite of tests. Can you please confirm whether this is a bug or whether I am doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Pierre.

Hi Pierre,
Thanks for pointing this out. Unfortunately, it is a bug on our side and you have found the (ugly) "work-around".

30EA1: Determine column lengths before csv-Import

Hello out there,
I tried to import a csv (actually semicolon separated and enclosed in double quotes) into a new table using SQL Developer.
I got error messages that some columns are to short (ORA-12899). Now the question is, is there an option having SQL Developer determine the maximum length of the data to propose a suitable column width?
Wenn I convert the csv to Excel an import that, I get similar errors but much later in the process. So Excel-import seems to look much farther ahead than csv-import.
What I need is SQL Developer scanning the whole file to determine the maximum length of data an not only the first row or the first few 1000 rows.
Can this be achieved somehow?
Regards,
dhalek

Hi Dhalek,
Not sure if your problem is that we are not calculating the size of the columns correctly, we are not generating the inserts correctly or if we are not reading the rows with the columns that are large during the preview phase which is where we profile the data and determine the size of the columns. Can you see the rows that are rejected in the preview? When the table is created, are the sizes of the columns correct? Is it possible that your csv file is having the same problem with the single quote as the excel file? Once we have read the data, the generation is handled in the same way for both so the inserts should look the same.
Sqldeveloper uses java batch insert for the Insert method which is different from standard insert and inserting via a script. The rules are slightly different so rejections may differ. Also, failures reject the entire batch not just the bad row. For now, to limit the number of rejected rows, you can set the preferences->database->advanced-Sql Array Fetch Size to 1 for the import. This will generate only bad rows in the bad file and should make it easier to pinpoint the problem. You'll want to restore that value because it also affects any fetches done by SQLDeveloper. I'll need to research our generation of the single quote in the data.
Also you may want to try setting the preferences->database->load->preview characters limit to a very high number if you think the problem is that we are not reading the rows with the large columns during the preview. This is the overalll limit of characters that will be read from the file during the preview.
You can also try the insert script method to load your data which will eliminate any java batch insert issues.
Thanks,
Joyce

Actual Column Name for Index when Function is used?

Hi,
We have some indeces where the column in oracle is actually a function in the form UPPER('column-name'). When I query user_ind_columns I get something like SYS_NC0012$ for the column name. Where would I be able to actually query the actual column it's using in the index? So that I can query the exact column name if need be. Don't ask why cause this is a developer asking me this and they are doing some sort of a comparison between indexes between two application.
Here is the SQL for the Index and the Table associated with it
create table BATCH_HEADER2
PAYMENT_TYPE VARCHAR2(17),
BATCH_TYPE VARCHAR2(40) not null,
BATCHNUM NUMBER not null,
BRANCH VARCHAR2(16),
BATCH_TIME NUMBER,
USER_LOB VARCHAR2(16),
PAYEE_TYPE VARCHAR2(40),
PROGRESS_RECID NUMBER,
CHEQUE_TYPE VARCHAR2(60),
SCANNERBATCHNO NUMBER,
RECEIPTCOUNT NUMBER
alter table BATCH_HEADER2
add constraint PK_BATCH_HEADER2 primary key (BATCH_TYPE, BATCHNUM)
using index
tablespace FT1_DATA;
--Inxes
create unique index FT1DSTINT.BATCH_HEADER2##BYNUM on FT1DSTINT.BATCH_HEADER2 (UPPER(BATCH_TYPE), BATCHNUM)
tablespace FT1_DATA
pctfree 10
initrans 2
maxtrans 255
storage (initial 64K
minextents 1
maxextents unlimited);

From Oracle's standpoint, though, it isn't indexing BATCH_TYPE. It's indexing an arbitrary function that happens to take BATCH_TYPE as an input. As far as Oracle is concerned, you might just as easily be indexing an expression that took a dozen column names as parameters, so it doesn't really make sense for Oracle to try to break down anything beyond the function.
Of course, you could always parse the expression and extract the column name, but I would be dubious that's the right answer... If a developer is comparing indexes between columns, there is a heck of a lot of difference between an index on BATCH_TYPE, and index on UPPER(BATCH_TYPE) and an index on SOME_OTHER_FUNCTION( BATCH_TYPE ).

SQL Developer 1.5.3 Can't Import Text Files

It is version build main-5783. When I try to import data in text files, I get this message "there are no readers registered for the txt type"; how can I get a reader?
While SQL Developer allows excel file import, but the imported tables have their column orders reversed and excel files can only hold very limited rows. Is there a good data pump kind of like what MS SQL has that we can use?
Thanks for your help!

The Data Import Wizard almost froze on step one reading the file, it has only 120,000 records and not very wide, after it came back I had all the column data types specified, click on verify then finish and it ran for few minutes; when I refreshed no new table was created.
I loaded the file to MS Access and tried to push the table through using ODBC with the Access Export Wizard; it ran for few minutes and when I refreshed in Oracle, the table was there and looked perfect.
Off first glance Oracle's SQL Developer does not appear to be a mature product. At least it lacks the data pump that MS SQL Enterprise Manager does which is ultra fast and easy to use.
Thanks for the help, I will use Access as a bridge then.

C# : Get Column name for an Insert Query from The Selected GridView Row.

Hi Guys, I am trying to insert data in an SQL table by executing an Insert Query.
The problem is that I need to get the column name from a cell in the selected gridview Row.
Here's the snippet:
SqlCommand cmd30 = new SqlCommand("insert into mytable ( '"+GridView7.SelectedRow.Cells[0].Text+"' , r_id) values ('"+ GridView7.SelectedRow.Cells[1].Text +"', '"+TextBox1.Text+"')",con30);
cmd30.ExecuteNonQuery();
**r_id is not a Primary Key.
The Error is get is:
Incorrect syntax near 'r_id'.
Any Help will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi TheShaleen,
Like your title mentioned.GridView control is a web class.This forum is to discuss problems of C# development. Your question is not related to the topic of this forum.
You'll need to post it in the dedicated ASP.Net Forum for more efficient responses, where you can contact ASP.NET experts. Thanks for understanding.

New SQL Developer Data Modeler : name of attributes of foreign key

Hi,
with designer the name of column of foreign key was the " short name of entity/table master" + "_" + "the name of column attribute of the master table" .
Instead in the sql developer D.M. the system uses directly the name of the column/attribute of the master table and if the name exists in the slave table it uses a number to distinguish them .
So, if i have a table with short name gp and a primmary key id and a slave table with even a column id ,
with the D.M i'll have in the slave table a column named id2; in the designer instead the new column is gp_id .
Is possible to have the same behavior of designer even in the SQL Developer Data Modeler ?
Regards
Gianpaolo Giliberto

Hi Gianpaolo,
the columns of foreign keys are generated without the short name of master tablehow do you define that short name? Table and column have property "Abbreviation" - short name should be set there. You need also to set naming templates in "General Options>Naming Standard>Templates". Templates will be used when foreign key is created or you can apply them in Table dialog or for whole relational model using pop-up menu in the browser.
no foreign key index is generated on foreign key columns I assume, you want it for DDL generation only - this is controlled in "General Options>DDL"

Philip
