SQL Queries from Java to Access

Does anyone know why it is that when i send a SQL query from a Java class to Access using the equals ( = ) function, it works fine, but when i send a query using the LIKE function, it does not work?
If i manually copy and paste the LIKE query from Java into an Access query, the query works fine yet when i send it from the Java class, it does not work.
An ideas would be most welcome

Access uses a different token for the %-sign (a * I believe). When you want to do a 'like-query' through JDBC, you have to use the %-sign:
LIKE '%text_to_search%'

Calling MS Access queries from Java

Anyone have any idea if it's possible to call MS Access queries from Java? I have a client who is insistent on keeping MS Access for their database, and it'd be nice if I didn't have to receate all their queries in Java.
I've successfully connected to and queried the Access MDB, but I need to know if it's even possible to execute the stored MS Access queries they have setup in the database.
Thanks!

How to isolate the Sql Statement from Java Code

Hi
I Need to know that can we segregate the Sql Statements and convert them to Stored Procedures so as to isolate the Sql statements from Java Code.
So i have one static web page which uses four select Statements so what i want is to create a stored procedure encapsulating these queries. So that the Java Web Developer will simply call the Stored Procedure instead of using four different SQL Statements.
Suppose the developer has these four Statements
Select ename,empno,sal,job from emp;
select empno,ename,mgr from emp;
select deptno,dname from dept;
select emp.ename,emp.empno,emp.deptno,dept,dname fromemp,dept;
So can i encapsulate these four Sql Statements in one Procedure and the Web developer can call the Store procedure and dont need to write the Sql Statements in his code.
Can Anybody guide me how to write this Stored type of Store procedure.
Thanks

Connect to MS Sql Server from Java Source

Hi,
Is there any way I could connect to ms sql server from Java source? I know I can call java source from function thats easy but what I really want is capability to connect to non-oracle(MS SQL server) from my java source and then call it from function.
I don't know if JDBC driver for SQL server is even installed/available. Is there a way I could find it out form my IDE? I know sqlJ does compile but I have never used sqlj. help!!!

You'll probably have better luck in a Java forum or a Microsoft forum.

Calling a PL/SQL function from java

I would like to call a pl/sql function from java. My pl/sql function is taking arrays of records as parameters. How do i proceed? Which specific oracle packages do I have to import?
Please send an example.
TIA,
Darko Guberina

Documentation here: http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/java.101/b10983/datamap.htm#sthref185
says JPublisher can publish records too.
But when I change the example given at http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/java.101/b10983/datamap.htm#sthref190 as following:
PACKAGE "COMPANY" AS
type emp_rec is record (empno number, ename varchar2(10));
type emp_list is varray(5) of emp_rec;
type factory is record (
name varchar(10),
emps emp_list
function get_factory(p_name varchar) return factory;
END;
then I see <unknown type or type not found> at sql or java files generated. Any ideas?

Error PLS-00306 during calling PL/SQL function from Java

Hi all,
I am facing a problem during call of oracle PL/SQL function from java using CallableStatement.
I receive following error message.
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-06550: line 1, column 13:
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'EXPORT_HIST_ALARMS_FUNC'
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
As per above error EXPORT_HIST_ALARMS_FUNC in oracle has this signature.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION EXPORT_HIST_ALARMS_FUNC(startDateTime VARCHAR2, endDateTime VARCHAR2, meType VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
END EXPORT_HIST_ALARMS_FUNC;
Above function I have called following way in java.
String sql = "begin ?:= EXPORT_HIST_ALARMS_FUNC(?, ?, ?); end;" ;
CallableStatement cStatement = null;
cStatement = connection.prepareCall(sql);
cStatement.registerOutParameter(1,Types.VARCHAR);
cStatement.setString(2,startDateTime);
cStatement.setString(3,endDateTime);
cStatement.setString(4,meType);
cStatement.execute();
msg = cStatement.getString(1);
Actually above function requires three input parameters and one return parameter.
During execution of above java code it throws SQLException and shows PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'EXPORT_HIST_ALARMS_FUNC' error.
I have run this function directly from oracle with three parameters and run successfully and finally it returns string.
But I am unable to figure out why it doesn't run from above java code.
Please help regarding this.
Thanks.
Regards,
Shardul Banker

Try this:
String sql = "begin ?:= EXPORT_HIST_ALARMS_FUNC(?, ?, ?); end;" ;
CallableStatement cStatement = null;
cStatement = connection.prepareCall(sql);
cStatement.registerOutParameter(1,Types.VARCHAR);
cStatement.setString(1,startDateTime);
cStatement.setString(2,endDateTime);
cStatement.setString(3,meType);
cStatement.execute();
msg = cStatement.getString(1);Regards,

Calling oracle SQL Loader from java program

Hi,
I want to insert data into oracle tables from a text files containing fixed length fields. I am using SQLLoader to achieve this. The requirement is to call the SQLLoader within the java program.
Does anyone know how to call SQL Loader from java program?
Thanks,
Varsha

Simply "exec" the sqlldr program with the parameters you need to pass to it.
Runtime.exec (........)
Try to pass all parameters needed including the username and password, and use the option "silent" to avoid output, and the option "log" to have a log file of the modifications that sqlldr has done to the database.

Send Datetime2 value to a SQL Procedure from Java using Hibernate

Hi All,
I Have a Procedure which takes a parameter of type datetime2.
The procedure is called from Java Hibernate.
How can I Pass datetime2 value to SQL procedure from Java?
Thanks in advance,
Shraddha Gore

You may define a global empty array in some package. Then you can do:
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE pkg
AS
   g_empty   DBMS_SQL.varchar2_table;
END pkg;
Package created.
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE p (
   p_tuids   IN   DBMS_SQL.varchar2_table "DEFAULT pkg.g_empty"
AS
BEGIN
   NULL;
END p;
Procedure created.
SQL> BEGIN
   p ();
END;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

SQL queries from a Citadel database

We are retrieving data with third-party package SQL queries from a Citadel database. Certain queries for some object members will not return data, but the SQL search application software returns an "error". An analysis of the error from the SQL end does not find problem on SQL side. I suspect corruption of Citadel database. The link to database is good, as most tags do return a value as expected.
This problem occurred at the time of re-location of the database to a replacement computer. Any ideas on how to fix such a problem?

Can you give an example of the "bad" SQL statement and a good one?

Extracting SQL Queries from Crystal Reports

I am trying to find a way or a utility to be able extract SQL queries from Crystal reports into a text file for documentation purposes. These queries are not in the repository, they were entered into each of the reports when the reports were being built and I can't find a way to extract them. Any ideas/suggestions?

Hello,
CR doesn't have the ability, and I don't recall if this has ever been asked previously. Great suggestion for the Idea Place tab in the up right corner of this page.
If you find a developer it's quite simple to get:
            // log onto the server and then get the SQL.
            rptClientDoc.DatabaseController.LogonEx("van-w-13-dwilli", "xtreme", "sa", "pw");
            GroupPath gp = new GroupPath();
            string tmp = String.Empty;
            rptClientDoc.RowsetController.GetSQLStatement(gp, out tmp);
            // show the SQL but easy enough to save the SQL text to a file.
            MessageBox.Show(tmp, "Data Source Set and SQL Statement", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
Of course you need to open the report first, lots of samples on how to...
Thank you

Invoking .SQL file from JAVA

Hi All,
Anyway of calling .SQL files from JAVA ??
thanks in advance..

What do you mean by calling?
Are you talking about a stored procedure? Then yes.typo !!
i meant invoking .SQL script only...
No not stored procedure..i mean running or invoking a sql file containing sql statements(inserts etc)

Performing sql queries in java without using java libraries

i wonder whether its possible to perform sql queries beginning from create table to updating queries without using the java sql library.
has anyone written such code.

You could use JNI to talk to a native driver like the Oracle OCI driver. Doing this is either exiting or asking for trouble depending on your attitude to lots of low level bugs.

Want to execute SQL Queries from Textfile

I have a text file full of a bunch of sql queries, of the format:
select something1, something2
from someplace
select something3, something4
from someplace2
select something5, something6
from someplace3
I want to execute these queries one at a time and then after each one executes, I will do something with the resultset. Question is, how do I pull each query from the text file one at a time and execute? I was doing this by using java.util.Scanner and java.lang.StringBuilder where I would scan one line at a time and then check to see if the line is empty, otherwise I append the line to the StringBuilder. If the line is empty, I process whatever is stored in the StringBuilder. The problem with doing this is that it does not preserve the newline from the text file, so I get queries that look like:
"select something5, something6from someplace3"
which of course are invalid. Does anyone know a better way to build SQL queries / statements from a text file? How do I get the newline or carriage return character?

Just replace newline by space?

Multiple sql statements from java

I am executing sql statements in MaxDB 7.6.04.12 from java using jdbc.
I want to execute multiple statements at a time, but it seems that however I separate the statements, I get
com.sap.dbtech.jdbc.exceptions.DatabaseException: [-3014] (at 433): Invalid end of SQL statement
I have tried separating the statements with just a semi-colon, with a semi-colon and new line, with newline-//-newline (as works with SQL Studio), but whatever I try I get this error or some other.
Is it possible to do this? and if so how?
Thanks
Chris

Hi Lars,
Here are the relevant bits of code.
However I'm not sure how helpful that will be - I'm using the SpringFramework for my jdbc calls, as it saves a lot of time and effort, and my calls are to Spring methods, which are wrappers round the base jdbc calls.
I'll post it anyway, just in case you're familiar with Spring. I haven't looked at the Spring code, but my understanding is it pretty much just passes the sql to standard jdbc calls.
I guess my next step would be to trace through the Spring code as it executes and see if anything becomes apparent. However I'm under some time pressure and was hoping to avoid that.
My other alternative is to create non-temporary tables, and drop them explicitly when I've finished with them.
    public Set<String> getPriceUpdatedProducts() {
        final Set<String> prods = new TreeSet<String>();
        String sql;
        int updates;
        // need single connection template so subsequent statements can access temp tables:
        JdbcTemplate jtSingle = getSingleConTemplate(jdbcTemplate);
        // inDCs is a list of dist channels for an sql 'in' statement:
        String inDCs = "";
        for (String siteId: siteConfig.getAllSiteIds()) {
            if (!"".equals(inDCs)) inDCs += ",";
            inDCs += "'" + siteConfig.getSiteIdProperty(siteId, "distChanId") + "'";
        // Clear all the changed flags from the last run:
        updates = jtSingle.update("update zchangedartdc set changed = '' ");
        // Get the current data into a temp table:
        sql = "create table temp.pricechanges as " +
              "select A304.matnr, A304.vtweg, konp.kbetr price " +
              " from A304 join konp " +
