SQL Query Reference?

Hi..:)
Need some advise on any Oracle Sql query reference..
I use to do mysql development with reference to mysqlhelp.chm
Is there any equivalent standalone help reference available for oracle.
Thank you

How can my SQL query reference a multiselect item

I am hoping there is a simple solution for this...but suspect (based on other postings) that I must go through several steps.
I have a simple report page. It contains two regions. An HTML region with one item, a multiselect item containing a SPECIES CODE. The second region is a report region with the query:
Select trip_id from TRIPS where species_code = :P11_SPECIES_CODE.
It works when only one species is selected....but (ahha), not when there are multiple species selected.
Thanks!

HI Denes,
I think I am close. :)
I have executed the following statements and am able to issue the query from the owner session....but not when I log into the application. I have granted execute on each of these objects. Any clue why I might be getting the following:

SQL Query Help Needed

I'm having trouble with an SQL query. I've created a simple logon page wherein a user will enter their user name and password. The program will look in an Access database for the user name, sort it by Date/Time modified, and check to see if their password matches the most recent password. Unfortunately, the query returns no results. I'm absolutely certain that I'm doing the query correctly (I've imported it directly from my old VB6 code). Something simple is eluding me. Any help would be appreciated.
private void LogOn() {
//make sure that the user name/password is valid, then load the main menu
try {
//open the database connection
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:LawOffice2000", "", "");
Statement select = con.createStatement();
String strTemp = "Select * From EMPLOYEES Where INITIALS = '" + txtUserName.getText() + "' Order By DATE Desc, TIME Desc";
ResultSet result = select.executeQuery(strTemp);
while(result.next()) {
if (txtPassword.getPassword().toString() == result.getString("Password")) {
MenuMain.main();
else {
System.out.println("Password Bad");
System.out.println(txtUserName.getText());
System.out.println(result.getString("Password"));
break; //exit loop
//close the connection
con.close(); }
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("LawOfficeSuite_LogOn: " + e);
return; }
}

The problem is here: "txtPassword.getPassword().toString() == result.getString("Password"))"
Don't confuse String's equals() method with the equality operator '=='. The == operator checks that two references refer to the same object. If you want to compare the contents of Strings (whether two strings contain the same characters), use equals(), e.g. if (str1.equals(str2))...
Example:String s1 = "foo";
String s2 = new String("foo");
System.out.println("s1 == s2: " + (s1 == s2)); // false
System.out.println("s1.equals(s2): " + (s1.equals(s2))); // trueFor more information, check out Comparison operators: equals() versus ==

Is there a simple way to refresh a SQL Query (Updatable report) region

I have a page in APex 4.1 that has many regions. I would like to be able to refresh a single region.
Currently, I have the following
Region (sql query updateable report).
STATIC ID = LANDINGS
in the region footer, I have:
<script type="text/javascript">
$s('P110_LANDINGS_REGION_ID','#REGION_STATIC_ID#');
</script>
P110_LANDINGS_REGION_ID is a hidden field.
I use javascript to refresh....but it does not seem to be working. Previously, we had hard-coded the region id ( $a_report('1363338167540162011','1','100','100');) ...but that ID was somehow corrupted, which has lead me to the 'OMG...there must be an easier way!' lament.
the javascript is:
$a_report('P110_LANDINGS_REGION_ID','1','100','100');
thanks!
Karen
ps. could I just directly reference the static id in my javascript...
$a_report('LANDINGS','1','100','100');

Karen,
First off: please post code in {code}...{code} tags!
function AddFavoriteSpecies()
get = new htmldb_Get(null,&APP_ID.,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=favorite_species_collection',0);
gReturn = get.get();
rowCount = rowCount + parseInt(gReturn);
pHMS_add = '&G_HMS_FLAG.';
$a_report('1363338167540162011','1','100','100');
//$a_report($x('P110_LANDINGS_ID').value,'1','15','15');the statement:
$a_report('1363338167540162011','1','100','100'); works, but the statement $a_report($x('P110_LANDINGS_ID').value,'1','15','15'); does not.
Can anyone help.
I am assigning the page field P110_LANDINGS_ID in the footer of a region with a static id = LANDINGS.
<script type="text/javascript">
$s('P110_LANDINGS_ID','#REGION_STATIC_ID#');
</script>
Well, let's start by dumping $a_report. This is undocumented code, and it has long been replaced by triggering a refresh.
Next, don't use $x(pNode).value to retrieve a value. Rather use $v(pNode) to do this.
function AddFavoriteSpecies()
   get = new htmldb_Get(null,&APP_ID.,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=favorite_species_collection',0);
   gReturn = get.get();
   rowCount = rowCount + parseInt(gReturn);
   pHMS_add = '&G_HMS_FLAG.';
   //get the region id from the item
   //use it in a jQuery selector to get the region
   //trigger the refresh event on this object
   $("#" + $v('P110_LANDINGS_ID')).trigger('apexrefresh');
}Now if you want to make sure that P110_LANDINGS_ID contains a value, add an alert with its value before you use it.
alert('P110_LANDINGS_ID value: '+$v('P110_LANDINGS_ID'))

SQL Query (updateable report) Region - Conditionally Hide and Set Values

SQL Query (updateable report) Region - Conditionally Hide and Set Values
Outline of requirement :-
Master / Detail page with Detail updated on same page using SQL Query (updateable report).
The detail region has the following source
SELECT item_id,
       contract_id,
       CASE WHEN hardware_id IS NOT NULL THEN
               'HA'
            WHEN backup_dev_id IS NOT NULL THEN
               'BD'
            WHEN hardware_os_id IS NOT NULL THEN
               'HS'
       END item_type,
       hardware_id,
       backup_dev_id,
       hardware_os_id
FROM   "#OWNER#".support_items
WHERE contract_id = :P26_CONTRACT_IDThe table support_items implements arced relationships and has the following columns
CREATE TABLE SUPPORT_ITEMS
ITEM_ID         NUMBER                        NOT NULL,
CONTRACT_ID     NUMBER                        NOT NULL,
HARDWARE_ID     NUMBER,
BACKUP_DEV_ID   NUMBER,
HARDWARE_OS_ID NUMBER
)A check type constaint on support_items ensures that only one of the fk's is present.
      (    hardware_id    IS NOT NULL
       AND backup_dev_id IS NULL
       AND hardware_os_id IS NULL
OR    (    hardware_id    IS NULL
       AND backup_dev_id IS NOT NULL
       AND hardware_os_id IS NULL
OR    (    hardware_id    IS NULL
       AND backup_dev_id IS NULL
       AND hardware_os_id IS NOT NULL
      )    Hardware_Id is a FK to Hardware_Assets
Backup_dev_id is a FK to Backup_Devices
Hardware_os_id is a FK to Hardware_op_systems
The Tabular Form Element based on item_type column of SQL query is Displayed As Select List (based on LOV) referencing a named list of values which have the following properties
Display Value     Return Value
Hardware Asset    HA
Backup Device     BD
Computer System   HSThe Tabular Form Elements for the report attributes for hardware_id, backup_dev_id and hardware_os_id are all Displayed As Select List (Based on LOV).
What I want to do is only display the Select List for the FK depending on the value of the Select List on Item Type, e.g.
Item_Type is 'HA' then display Select List for hardware_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists for backup_dev_id and hardware_os_id.
Item_Type is 'BB' then display Select List for backup_dev_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists for hardware_id and hardware_os_id.
Item_Type is 'HS' then display Select List for hardware_os_id, do not display and set to NULL the Select Lists backup_dev_id and hardware_id.
There are properties on elements to conditionally display it but how do we reference the values of the SQL query Updateable region? they are not given a page item name?
Also on the Tabular For Elements there is an Edit tick against a report item - however when you go to the Column Attributes there is not a property with which you can control the Edit setting.
What's the best way of implementing this requirement in APEX 3.1?
Thanks.

Welcome to the forum: please read the FAQ and forum sticky threads (if you haven't done so already), and update your profile with a real handle instead of "user13515136".
When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
<li>Theme
<li>Template(s)
<li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form)
With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.
I have a multi-row region that displays values and allows entries in a number of fields.Provide exact details of how this has been implemented. (An example on apex.oracle.com is always a good way to do this.)
I should like the fields to be conditional in that they do not permit entry, but still display, if certain conditions apply (e.g. older rows greyed out). Can this be done? Almost anything can be done, often in multiple ways. Which are appropriate may be dependent on a particular implementation, the skills available to implement it, and the effort you're willing to expend on it. Hence it's necessary to provide full details of what you've done so far...

Converting SQL Report Region to PLSQL Function Body Returning SQL Query

All:
I want to convert my SQL Report Region to a PLSQL-generated SQL Report Region so that I can eliminate where clauses dynamically and speed up my app, and also so that I can provide additional sorting options.
<br><br>
My problem is that I have lots of embedded single quotes that already are coded as 3 single quotes in the SQL Report Region. I am not sure at all how to code them within the PLSQL.
<br><br>
As example, here is one column from my query:
<br><br>
select decode(nvl(g.date_sub_1,g.date_rec_1), null, decode(g.article, 0, 'E', 1, 'U'), '< a href="javascript:unElevate( ' ' ' || g.grid || ' ' ',' ' ' || g.natca || ' ' ')">' || decode(g.article, 0, 'E', 1, 'U') || '< /a>') "Reverse" from g_table g
<br><br>
(Note that I added spaces within the code so it would display properly in the browser.)
<br><br>
To clarify, that's a double quote before javascript, and then 3 single quotes before the first concatenation group, then 3 single quotes after the second concatenation group, then 3 single quotes before the third, 3 single quotes after the fourth followed by an end-paren followed by a double quote etc.
<br><br>
My question is, what do I do with these triple-single quotes within PLSQL? Probably a no-brainer for the experienced folks, but I am thinking like a mobius strip at this point.
<br><br>

Scott,
I think that feature was made for my situation! I keep getting
Function returning SQL query: Query cannot be parsed within the Builder. If you believe your query is syntactically correct, check the generic columns checkbox below the region source to proceed without parsing.
(ORA-20001: Unable to bind :43 verify length of item is 30 bytes or less. Use v() syntax to reference items longer than 30 bytes. ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist)
I did chop the query up into little bits, i.e.
p_sql := p_sql || q'! ... !';
p_sql := p_sql || q'! ... !';
p_sql := p_sql || q'! ... !';
return p_sql;
But I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do here.
Thank you.
Bill

PL/SQL function body returning SQL query - ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error

I'm attempting to dynamically generate a rather large SQL query via the "PL/SQL function body returning SQL query" report region option. The SQL query generated will possibly be over 32K. When I execute my page, I sometimes receive the "ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error" which points to a larger than 32K query that was generated. I've seen other posts in the forum related to this dynamic SQL size limitation issue, but they are older (pre-2010) and point to the 32K limit of the DNS (EXECUTE IMMEDIATE) and DBMS_SQL. I found this post (dynamic sql enhancements in 11g) which discusses 11g no longer having the 32K size limitation for generating dynamic SQL. Our environment is on 11gR2 and using ApEx 4.2.1. I do not know which dynamic SQL method -- DNS or DBMS_SQL -- ApEx 4.2.1 is using. Can someone clarify for me which dynamic SQL method ApEx uses to implement the "PL/SQL function body returning SQL query" option?
As a test, I created a page on apex.oracle.com with a report region with the following source:
declare
l_stub varchar2(25) := 'select * from sys.dual ';
l_sql clob := l_stub || 'union all ';
br     number(3) := 33;
begin
while length ( l_sql ) < 34000 loop
    l_sql := l_sql || l_stub || 'union all ';
end loop;
l_sql := l_sql || l_stub;
for i in 1 .. ceil ( length ( l_sql ) / br ) loop
    dbms_output.put_line ( dbms_lob.substr ( l_sql, br, ( ( i - 1 ) * br ) + 1 ) );
end loop;
return l_sql;
end;
The dbms_output section is there to be able to run this code in SQL*Plus and confirm the size of the SQL is indeed larger than 32K. When running this in SQL*Plus, the procedure is successful and produces a proper SQL statement which can be executed. When I put this into the report region on apex.oracle.com, I get the ORA-06502 error.
I can certainly implement a work-around for my issue by creating a 'Before Header' process on the page which populates an ApEx collection with the data I am returning and then the report can simply select from the collection, but according to documentation, the above 32K limitation should be resolved in 11g. Thoughts?
Shane.

What setting do you use in your report properties - especially in Type and in Region Source?
If you have Type="SQL Query", then you should have a SELECT statement in the Region Source. Something like: SELECT .... FROM ... WHERE
According to the ERR-1101 error message, you have probably set Type to "SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query)". In this situation APEX expects you to write a body of a PL/SQL function, that will generate the text of a SQL query that APEX should run. So it can be something like:
declare
mycond varchar2(4000);
begin
if :P1_REPORT_SEARCH is not null THEN
mycond:='WHERE LAST_NAME like :P1_REPORT_SEARCH ||''%''';
end if;
return 'select EMPLOYEE_ID, FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME from EMPLOYEES ' ||mycond;
end;
And for escaping - are you interested in escaping the LIKE wildcards, or the quotes?
For escaping the wildcards in LIKE function so that when the user enters % you will find a record with % and not all functions, look into the SQL Reference:
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/conditions007.htm
(You would than need to change the code of your function accordingly).
If you are interested in escaping the quotes, try to avoid concatenating the values entered by the user into the SQL. If you can, use bind variables instead - as I have in my example above. If you start concatenating the values into the text of SQL, you are open to SQLInjection - user can enter anything, even things that will break your SQL. If you really need to allow users to choose the operator, I would probably give them a separate combo for operators and a textfield for values, than you could check if the operator is one of the allowed ones and create the condition accordingly - and than still use bind variable for inserting the filtering value into the query.

SQL query with "parameters"

Hi,
I want a sql query as follows (but it seems not be as simple as that...)
select A1, A2,
select sum(B3)
from B1 = A2
where
from A
where A1 = '1001'
is it possible, in some way, to have A2 from outer select statement as a parameter to inner select statement?

is it possible, in some way, to have A2 from outer select statement as a parameter to inner select statement?Yes, you can reference columns from a parent query within its child query.
For example:
select A1, A2,
         select sum (b.B3)
         from   b
         where b.B1 = a.A2
from     A
where     A1 = '1001'
;Within the sub-query, you don't have to qualify columns from b; that is, b3 is assumed to mean b.b3. If the column name is unique, you don't have to qualify columns from table a, either. That is, if b does not have a column called a2, then a2 in the sub-query could only mean a.a2, and Oracle doesn't make you spell out which table a2 comes from, but it makes the code a lot easier to understand and debug if you do qualify the columns.
By the way, a sub-query that references its parent query like this is called a Correlated Sub-Query .
"Parameter" doesn't really apply to this situation.

ORA-01006 during report from SQL Query

We are running WebDB 2.2 against a 7.3.4.4 database. I have a report created from a SQL query which references 4 bind variables. During execution I receive the following, Failed to bind - :periodyr| |' with
ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist.
Anyone have any idea what causes this error, could it be because I reference a bind variable (:periodyr) more than once in the query? Is there a work around?
I have included the where clause as reference:
WHERE gcc.code_combination_id = gb.code_combination_id
AND gb.code_combination_id = gjl.code_combination_id
AND gjl.je_header_id = gjh.je_header_id
AND gb.budget_version_id =
(select budget_version_id
from gl.gl_budget_versions
where budget_name = :periodyr| |' OPERATING')
AND gjh.actual_flag = 'B'
AND gb.actual_flag = 'B'
AND gb.period_name = gjl.period_name
AND gb.period_year = nvl(:periodyr,gb.period_year)
and gcc.segment2 = nvl(:cstctr,gcc.segment2)
and ffvobj.attribute10 = nvl(:ctrlgrp,ffvobj.attribute10)
and gcc.segment3 = nvl(:objcode,gcc.segment3)
Thanks
Mark

I think there is a bug in the procedure which picks up the bind variables from a SQL.
Workground: put a space between variable :periodyr and operator | | as:
where budget_name = :periodyr | |' OPERATING')
Hope this will work

How do you obtain SEQ_ID of a collection based on a SQL QUERY

I don't know if my brain is not working or what, but how can I access the seq_id of a collection that I display as a SQL Query? I have this SQL Query:
select
htmldb_item.checkbox(1,b.asset_id) " ",
htmldb_item.select_list_from_lov(2,
'SHARE-UNRESTRICTED','LOV_RESERVATION_MODE',null,'YES') "mode",
a.seq_id,
b.asset_no,
b.device_name,
b.device_name_attached_to
from
htmldb_collections a,
asset_report_vw b
where
a.collection_name = 'CART'
and a.c001 = b.asset_id
The user can select the reservation mode from the select list for the Mode field and hit a button to update the cart. I have reviewed documentation and the Collections Showcase demo that showed how to do this with form items, but not from a report. I can't figure out how to get the seq_id to pass to the HTMLDB_COLLECTION.UPDATE_MEMBER_ATTRIBUTE procedure. I tried to create a hidden region item called P9_SEQID but I can't figure out how to set it to the seq_id returned from a query. Using #SEQ_ID# syntax doesn't work.

I am including the seq_id in my SQL Query report. The sticky point was how to reference the seq_id in an AFTER SUBMIT process to update the collection returned by the SQL Query when the user hit the Apply Changes button (they can edit one of the fields).
So, I assume then this is how I need to do it. I thought there might be a more efficient way to do it by somehow referencing the seq_id column in the SQL Query report instead of having to requery to get the seq id for each row in the SQL Query:
-- 'update_cart' AFTER SUBMIT process
DECLARE
v_seqid number := null;
BEGIN
FOR I in 1..HTMLDB_APPLICATION.G_F02.COUNT LOOP
select x.seq_id into v_seqid from htmldb_collections x
where x.collection_name = 'CART'
and c001 = htmldb_application.g_f01(i);
HTMLDB_COLLECTION.UPDATE_MEMBER_ATTRIBUTE(
p_collection_name => 'CART',
p_seq => v_seq_id
p_attr_number => 2,
p_attr_value => htmldb_application.g_f02(i));
END LOOP;
END;

How-To populate SELECT LIST default value from SQL Query

OK, I've done my homework, and did not find my answer in the Forum, so here it is.
I have a Page that displays fields from a SQL Query. The Page also has below that radiogroups, checkboxes, and Select Lists to allow the user to change values in the fields that are displayed at the top of the Region. I am able to pre-populate the radiogroups and checkboxes by performing a SELECT in the 'Source value or expression' of the Source area of the Page Item.
However, I am unable to do the same for the Select List fields. Their default value ends up being the first value in the LOV ('-- None --' for NULL values). Source Used: Only when current value in session state is null. Source Type: SQL Query. Also, when I first go into the Page when running it, and check the Session State values, they are all null, so I don't understand why the field is not populated by the SQL Query statement as the radiogroups and checkboxes are.
Any suggestions??? I've tried all sorts of combinations.

Thank you for the suggestion.
I had considered that, but cannot do so, because we are using Oracle Application Express more for development than for data containment.
We have all our data in an Oracle 10.g DB which is separate from the OAEX server, and the OAEX app will reference that data via VIEWs and DB LINKs. We are doing so primarily as an added data security layer, where the data is housed separate from the app, in case the Web site is ever compromised. The data that can be viewed is restricted to a subset of the actual data that is available.
Since the data is on a separate server, (I assume) we will not be able to set the source type to Database column, because (I asume) that is dependent upon the data being housed by the OAEX server.
That still leaves me with having to populate the field with a SELECT statement from the Oracle DB. This unfortuneately is almost a show-stopper for me because of down-stream processing data requirements. Have not been able to come up with contingencies yet.

Can we generate the output of SQL Query in XML format ..

Hi Team,
Can we generate an XML doc for an SQL Query.
I've seen in SQL Server 2000.It is generating the output of an SQL Query in xml format.
select * from emp for xml auto
The output looks like
<emp EMPNO="7369" ENAME="SMITH" JOB="CLERK" MGR="7902" HIREDATE="1980-12-17T00:00:00" SAL="2800" DEPTNO="20"/><emp EMPNO="7370" ENAME="SMITH" JOB="CLERK" MGR="7902" HIREDATE="1980-12-17T00:00:00" SAL="2800" DEPTNO="10"/>

Just a little bit of short hand.
Get the XML out of your database, via HTTP
Of course the easiest method is just to return an XMLType from a stored procedure and let the calling routine figure out what to do with it. Instead
of that way though, I'll show you how to do it via HTTP. It's all completely built into 10g and is super easy to use.
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW emps_and_depts AS
SELECT e.employee_id AS "EmployeeId",
e.last_name AS "Name",
e.job_id AS "Job",
e.manager_id AS "Manager",
e.hire_date AS "HireDate",
e.salary AS "Salary",
e.commission_pct AS "Commission",
XMLFOREST (
d.department_id AS "DeptNo",
d.department_name AS "DeptName",
d.location_id AS "Location"
) AS "Dept"
FROM employees e, departments d
WHERE e.department_id = d.department_id
Some people hear web and immediately start salivating about security issues. Let me address that quickly. Just because you have the HTTP and/or
FTP servers running in the database, that does not mean you have a security problem. For one, I would hope your databases are behind a firewall.
Second, with the correct architecture (DMZ, app servers, etc) you can make this data available outside the firewall fairly transparently and third,
just because it's on the web does not mean the data MUST be available on the internet. This is a good way to make your data available on your
intranet. If you are worried about people INSIDE your firewall, that still doesn't preclude web based access. Follow Oracle security guidelines.
Before I show you how to get to your data, let's talk about URLs and URIs. A URL is a Uniform Resource Locater and URI is a Uniform Resource
Identifier. A URL is the way you would identify a document on the net, i.e. http://www.oracle.com is a URL. A URI is a more generic form of a URL.
Oracle supports three types of URI: HTTPURIType - basically a URL (which would be like the URL above), XDURIType - a pointer to an XDB resource
(usually an XML document but can be other objects), and DBURIType - a pointer to database objects.
It's the DBURIType that we're going to concentrate on here. The DBURIType let's us reference database objects using a file/folder paradigm. The
format for a DBURI is /oradb/<schema>/<table>. Oradb is shorthand for the database; it is not the database name or SID. My database is named XE
but I still use oradb in the DBURI. For example, the view we created above is in my XE database, is owned by HR (at least in my case) and is called
EMPS_AND_DEPTS. This can be referenced as /oradb/HR/EMPS_AND_DEPTS.
If the view had many rows and you wanted only one of them, you can restrict it by including a predicate. The documentation for XDB has a great
write up on Using DBURIs.In our case, we are going to write out the entire document. Now that you understand that the DBURI is a pointer to
objects in our instance, we can use that to access the data as a URL.
The format for the URL call is http://<machinename>:<port>/<DBURI>
In my case, my XE database is running on a machine called mach1 and is listening on port 8080. So to see the view we created above, I open my
browser and navigate to: http//mach1:8080/oradb/HR/EMPS_AND_DEPTS
The created URL will be as http//mach1:8080/oradb/PUBLIC/EMPS_AND_DEPTS
If your database is set up correctly and listening on port 8080 (the default), your browser should ask you to login. Login as the user who created the
view (in my case HR). You should now get an XML document displayed in your browser.
And that's it. It doesn't get much simpler than that. If you get rid of the descriptive text above, it basically comes down to:
Create a table or view
Open your web browser
Enter a URL
Enter a user ID and password
View your XML
If you notice, Oracle formatted the data as XML for us. Our view returns scalar columns and an XML fragment called Dept. Oracle formatted the
return results into an XML format.
And as a side note, if you look closely, you'll see that my URL has PUBLIC where I said to put HR. PUBLIC is a synonym for all objects that your
logged in user can see. That way, if your user has been granted select access on many schemas, you can use PUBLIC and see any of them.

Visual Web - How to 'setObject' for an SQL query with an IN ? clause

Hello, I am relatively new to visual web pack. I am stuck at writing the java code for passing parameters to the SQL query. In a normal scenario, where we need to check if some variable is present in a column (= ?), we would pass the parameter as :
setObject(1, whatevervalue);
How do we pass parameters if we need to check for more than one variable? The query editor in VWP has the option IN, which allows us to check for more than one match in a column. The IN clause is supposed to allow the format ('ex1', 'ex2' ...). I tried using an array as a parameter, like, setObject(1, somearray). It gives me a null exception. I even tried sending a variable in ('ex1', 'ex2' ...) format; doesn't like it either.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Can anyone help me out whether can we use the procedure in the sql query..
if yes help me out with an example
my requirement is
i have one sql query .. in which i need to use the procedure which returns multiple values... how can i overcome it,can anyone help me out for this..
for your reference i am pasting the sql query
SELECT paf.person_id
FROM per_all_assignments_f paf START WITH paf.person_id = p_person_id

and paf.person_id not in (>>>I HAVE TO USE THE PROCEDURE HERE<<<<);
Thanks in advance

We never saw your procedure, but maybe you could wrap it in a function
SQL> create or replace procedure get_members(in_something IN number, out_members OUT sys_refcursor)
is
begin
open out_members for
    'select level member_id from dual connect by level <= :num' using in_something;
end get_members;
Procedure created.
SQL> create or replace type numbers as table of number;
Type created.
SQL> create or replace function members(in_something IN number)
return numbers
as
member_cur sys_refcursor;
members numbers;
begin
get_members(in_something, member_cur);
fetch member_cur bulk collect into members;
close member_cur;
return members;
end;
Function created.
SQL> select * from table(members(4));
COLUMN_VALUE
           1
           2
           3
           4
4 rows selected.Variant on same using piplined function
SQL> create or replace function members_piped(in_something IN number)
return numbers pipelined
as
member_cur sys_refcursor;
rec number;
begin
get_members(in_something, member_cur);
loop
     fetch member_cur into rec;
     exit when member_cur%notfound;
     pipe row(rec);
end loop;
close member_cur;
return;
end;
Function created.
SQL> select * from table(members_piped(4));
COLUMN_VALUE
           1
           2
