Table Functions error in manual

In the user guide it writes:
create function f1(x number) return numset_t pipelined is
begin
for i in 1..x loop
pipe row(i);
end loop;
return;
end;
Note that the "end;" should be "end f1;". During unit test this didn't cause a problem, but once testing on a large amount of data we kept getting an ORA 600 (curse of Oracle).
Here was the exact error:
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [kohdtf048], [], [], [], [], [], [],
Hope this helps someone in the future,
Tim

A precision please :
In production,
- using the syntax without the function name after "end" produces the error.
- using the syntax with the function name doesn't produce the error
Is the above true?
As far as I know, the name of the function in the END syntax is OPTIONAL.

'setProgress is not a function' error while setting the progress of a progress bar manually

I want to set value of a progress bar in an accordian but I am encountering 'setProgress is not a function' error. Any idea what's wrong with following code.
Observation:
If I move the progress bar out of the Accordian then the error goes away and the progress bar appears fine.
I want to set the progress bar eventually to {repMonitor.currentItem.threatLevel} but for now I am just testing with hypothetical threat value i.e 60
    <mx:Accordion id="monAccordian" includeIn="Monitoring" x="10" y="10" width="554" height="242" change="monAccordianChange()" >
       <mx:Repeater id="repMonitor" dataProvider="{monitoringArray}">
          <mx:Canvas width="100%" height="100%" label="{repMonitor.currentItem.firstName+' '+ repMonitor.currentItem.lastName}" >
            <mx:Image x="10" y="10" source="{repMonitor.currentItem.imageName}" width="175" height="118"/>
              <s:Label x="200" y="14" text="Threat Level:"/>
              <mx:ProgressBar x="200" y="30" mode="manual" label="" id="bar" width="200" creationComplete="bar.setProgress(60,100);" />
          </mx:Canvas>
       </mx:Repeater>
    </mx:Accordion>

Okay.. Thanks.
On another forum I ve been told that I need to use getRepeaterItem. How can I use it to set my progress bar such the value of progress may be taken from repMonitor.currentItem.threatLevel?

How to use the Table Function defined in package in OWB?

Hi,
I defined a table function in a package. I am trying to use that in owb using Table function operator. But I came to know that, owb R1 supports only standalone table functions.
Is there any other way to use the table function defined in a package. As like we create synonyms for functions, is there any other way to do this.
I tryed to create synonyms, it is created. But it is showing compilation error. Finally I found that, we can't create synonyms for functions which are defined in packages.
Any one can explain it, how to resolve this problem.
Thank you,
Regards
Gowtham Sen.

Hi Marcos,
Thank you for reply.
OWB R1 supports stand alone table functions. Here what I mean is, the table fucntion which is not inculded in any package is a stand alone table function.
for example say sample_tbl_fn is a table function. It is defined as a function.It is a stand alone function. We call this fucntion as "samp_tbl_fn()";
For exampe say sample_pkg is a package. say a function is defined in a package.
then we call that function as sample_pkg.functionname(); This is not a stand alone function.
I hope you understand it.
owb supports stand alone functions.
Here I would like to know, is there any other way to use the functions which are defined in package. While I am trying to use those functions (which are defined in package -- giving the name as packagename.functionname) it is throwing an error "Invalid object name."
Here I would like know, is there any other way to use the table functions which are defined in a package.
Thank you,

Table function on a collection in Dynamic SQL

Hello,
I am trying to create a refcursor by selecting from a collection using table function.
If I use the Select statement the query executes, but if I put the Select statement in a string
the collection variable does not get resolved. The resaon I am putiing it in a string is because the
WHERE clause will be passed a parameter. The code below is an anonymous block but will be changed to a
procedure once I get it to work.
I have tried many different ways but was unsuccessful.
Please see if anybody cann assist or what I am trying to achive is not possible, so provide an alternative.
The error I am getting is
ORA-00904: "V_ALARM_REC_TABLE": invalid identifier

Drop default constraint on a table function

I need to drop some default constraints that appear to be tied to table functions (and not actual tables). This means when I try the ALTER TABLE DROP CONSTRAINT command it fails with the error, "unable to drop constraint because object is not
a table" or something similar.
My question is: how do I drop a constraint on a table function?

I suggest you review the documentation for TVFs and how they are (and can be) used. The table returned by a TVF (and in this case I refer specifically to multistatement TVFs) are defined using a subset of the create table syntax. They can be
created with constraints of different types - not just defaults. Why? Because it suits the logic of the developer and (perhaps) because it assists the database engine or the logic that depends on the output of the function.
Below is one example that I used (written by Steve Kass) from a LONG time ago. Notice the primary key.
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[uf_sequence] (@N int)
RETURNS @T TABLE (
seq int not null primary key clustered
AS
** 04/21/05.sbm - Bug #306. Initial version.
** Code provided by Steve Kass - MS .programming newsgroup
BEGIN
DECLARE @place int
SET @place = 1
INSERT INTO @T (seq) VALUES (0)
WHILE @place <= @N/2 BEGIN
INSERT INTO @T (seq)
SELECT @place + Seq FROM @T
SET @place = @place + @place
END
INSERT INTO @T (seq)
SELECT @place + Seq FROM @T
WHERE Seq <= @N - @place
RETURN
END
go
For your particular case, the choice of a default constraint is likely due to the implementation of the logic in the function. Perhaps there are multiple insert statements and it was simpler/easier/more robust to use a default constraint rather than
repeatedly hard-code the value in each statement. By choosing a default constraint, the developer need only alter the constraint (once) if the value needs to be changed rather than finding and changing each statement that inserts or updates the table.
As you've have already discerned, you can simply ignore any constraints that are defined on the tables returned by a TVF.

How to use database look up table function in xsl mapping

Can anybody tell me how to use database look up table function while mapping xsl between 2 nodes.
I have an XML file coming in and depending on one of XML elements we need to decide which further path to take. But, using this XML element, we need to query database table, get metadata and accordingly take appropriate path. I have written lookup function which returns metadata value.
Now, the issue is how do I pass the XML element valu as input to look up function? When I tried to drag it to the input node of lookup function, it throws an error like "Maximum number of parameters exceeded"
Thanks,

If the lookup table is always going to remain the same (e.g. a character generator or something similar) you can place the values in a 2D array constant on your diagram, with the input value as one column, the equivalent as the other. When you need to perform the lookup you use an index array to return all the values in the "input column", search it using "search 1D array" and use the resulting index number to index the other column's data. If the values may change, then it would probably be best to load an array control with your equivalent values from a file.

Invalid table name error ....

Hi,
I have written a function which takes table name dynamically and if column emp_id is null for more than 0 records then 1 is returned else 0 .
My problem is when i compile iam getting invalid table name error .
Below is my function :
create or replace
FUNCTION f_table ( tab_name in varchar2 ) return number is
l_count number;
begin
select count(*) into l_count from tab_name where emp_id is null;
if l_count >0 then
return 1;
else
return 0;
end if;
end;
Please help ...
Thanks in advance ..

Looks fine to me, you could use sign() for the last part:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_table (tab_name IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN NUMBER
IS
l_count NUMBER;
v_sql VARCHAR2 (2000);
BEGIN
v_sql := 'SELECT COUNT (*) FROM ' || tab_name || ' WHERE emp_id IS NULL';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_sql
INTO l_count;
RETURN sign(l_count);
END;And if you have large tables, you could consider not counting it all, and do something like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_table (tab_name IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN NUMBER
IS
l_count NUMBER;
v_sql VARCHAR2 (2000);
BEGIN
v_sql := 'SELECT COUNT (*) FROM ' || tab_name || ' WHERE emp_id IS NULL AND rownum = 1';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_sql
INTO l_count;
RETURN l_count;
END;Regards

How to define a view on a table function

I have a defined a pipelined table function in a package and can return data from it using:
select * from table(mtreport.FN_GET_JOBS_FOR_PROJECT(?));How can I define a view on this so that users can select from it without having to know to use the 'table' syntax?
select *
from   vw_jobs_for_project
where id = ?I've tried this, but it doesn't work
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW vw_jobs_for_project (PROJECT_ID, NAME) AS
SELECT     PROJECT_ID, NAME
FROM     table(mtreport.FN_GET_JOBS_FOR_PROJECT(PROJECT_ID));
ERROR at line 3:
ORA-00904: "PROJECT_ID": invalid identifier

views do not accept input parameters in the way that you want to use. you can define a CONTEXT parameter, but the users would need to set the context value before selecting from the view, so you'll still need to train them to do something new.
example:
create or replace context my_context using pkg_context;
<br>
create or replace package pkg_context is
procedure set_context(p_parameter in varchar2, p_value in varchar2);
function get_context(p_parameter in varchar2) return varchar2;
end;
show errors
create or replace package body pkg_context is
CONTEXT_NAME constant all_context.namespace%type := 'MY_CONTEXT';
procedure set_context(p_parameter in varchar2, p_value in varchar2) is
begin
    dbms_session.set_context(CONTEXT_NAME, p_parameter, p_value);
end;
function get_context(p_parameter in varchar2) return varchar2 is
begin
    return sys_context(CONTEXT_NAME, p_parameter);
end;
end;
show errors
create or replace view tree_view as
select level lvl, chid
from tree
connect by prior parid=chid
start with chid = sys_context('MY_CONTEXT','CHID');
-- at runtime
exec pkg_context.set_context('CHID', 14)
select * from tree_view;

Can I pass a table function parameter like this?

This works. Notice I am passing the required table function parameter using the declared variable.
DECLARE @Date DATE = '2014-02-21'
SELECT
h.*, i.SomeColumn
FROM SomeTable h
LEFT OUTER JOIN SomeTableFunction(@Date) I ON i.ID = h.ID
WHERE h.SomeDate = @Date
But I guess you can't do this?... because I'm getting an error saying h.SomeDate cannot be bound. Notice in this one, I am attempting to pass in the table function parameter from the SomeTable it is joined to by ID.
DECLARE @Date DATE = '2014-02-21'
SELECT
h.*, i.SomeColumn
FROM SomeTable h
LEFT OUTER JOIN SomeTableFunction(h.SomeDate) I ON i.ID = h.ID
WHERE h.SomeDate = @Date

Hi
NO you cant pass a table function parameter like this?
As When you declare @date assign value to it and pass as a parameter it will return table which you can use for join as you did it in first code
But when you pass date from some other table for generating table from your funtion it doesnt have date as it is not available there

Pipeline Table Function returning a fraction of data

My current project involves migrating an Oracle database to a new structure based on the new client application requirements. I would like to use pipelined table functions as it seems as though that would provide the best performance.
The first table has about 65 fields, about 75% of which require some type of recoding for the new app. I have written a function for each transformation and have all of these functions stored in a package. If I do:
create new_table as select (
pkg_name.function1(old_field1),
pkg_name.function2(old_field2),
pkg_name.function3(old_field3),
it runs with out any errors but takes about 3 1/2 hours. There are a little more than 10 million rows in the table.
I wrote a function that is passed the old table as a cursor, runs all the functions for the transformations and then pipes the new row back to the insert statement that called the function. It is incredibly fast but only returns .025% of the data (about 50 rows out of my sample table of 200,000). It does not throw any errors.
So I am trying to determine what is going on. Perhaps one of my functions has a bug. If there was would cause the row to be kicked out? There are 40 or so functions so tracking this down has been a bit of a bear.
Any advice as to how I might resolve this would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Dan

. I would like to use pipelined table functions as it seems as though that would provide the best performanceUh huh...
it runs with out any errors but takes about 3 1/2 hours. There are a little more than 10 million rows in the table.Not the first time a lovely theory has been killed by an ugly fact. Did you do any bench marks to see whether the pipelined functions did offer performance benefits over doing it some other way?
From the context of your comments I think you are trying to a populate a new table from a single old table. Is this the case? If so I would have thought a straightforward CTAS with normal functions would be more appropriate: pipelined functions are really meant for situations in which one input produced more than one output. Anyway, ifr we are to help you I think you need to give us more details about how this process works and post a sample transformation function.
There are 40 or so functions so tracking this down has been a bit of a bear.The teaching is: we should code one function and get that working before moving on to the next one. Which might not seem like a helpful thing to say, but the best lesson is often "I'll do it differently next time".

Using table function in JDBC

Hi All,
im Oracle 9i R2 :
there are package with table function and JDBC client .
In client code :
Statement st = con.createStatement() ;
ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery("select * from table(pkg.func)") ;
while (rs.next())
System.out.println(rs.getString(1)) ;
- and that not work ...
What is wrong ? :)
With best regards, Slava

Can you define "not work" here... Do you get an error? If so, what is the error number you are getting (ORA-xxxxx)?

Using table function with merge

I wanna use table function on a table type in a merger statement inside a procedure .
1 create or replace procedure fnd_proc as

3          type test_t is table of fnd_columns%rowtype;
4          fnd_t test_t;
5 begin
6          merge into sample s using (select * from table (fnd_pkg1.get_records(cursor(select * from fnd_columns)))) f
7          on (s.application_id = f.application_id)
8          when matched then
9                  update set last_update_date=sysdate
10          when not matched then
11                 insert(APPLICATION_ID,TABLE_ID,COLUMN_ID) values(f.APPLICATION_ID,f.TABLE_ID,f.COLUMN_ID);
12 end;
create or replace package fnd_pkg1 as
     type fnd_type is table of fnd_columns%rowtype;
     function get_records(p_cursor IN SYS_REFCURSOR) return fnd_type;
end;

10g: delay for collecting results from parallel pipelined table functions

When parallel pipelined table functions are properly started and generate output record, there is a delay for the consuming main thread to gather these records.
This delay is huge compared with the run-time of the worker threads.
For my application it goes like this:
main thread timing efforts to start worker and collect their results:
[10:50:33-*10:50:49*]:JOMA: create (master): 015.93 sec (#66356 records, #4165/sec)
worker threads:
[10:50:34-*10:50:39*]:JOMA: create (slave) : 005.24 sec (#2449 EDRs, #467/sec, #0 errored / #6430 EBTMs, #1227/sec, #0 errored) - bulk #1 / sid #816
[10:50:34-*10:50:39*]:JOMA: create (slave) : 005.56 sec (#2543 EDRs, #457/sec, #0 errored / #6792 EBTMs, #1221/sec, #0 errored) - bulk #1 / sid #718
[10:50:34-*10:50:39*]:JOMA: create (slave) : 005.69 sec (#2610 EDRs, #459/sec, #0 errored / #6950 EBTMs, #1221/sec, #0 errored) - bulk #1 / sid #614
[10:50:34-*10:50:39*]:JOMA: create (slave) : 005.55 sec (#2548 EDRs, #459/sec, #0 errored / #6744 EBTMs, #1216/sec, #0 errored) - bulk #1 / sid #590
[10:50:34-*10:50:39*]:JOMA: create (slave) : 005.33 sec (#2461 EDRs, #462/sec, #0 errored / #6504 EBTMs, #1220/sec, #0 errored) - bulk #1 / sid #508
You can see, the worker threads are all started at the same time and terminating at the same time: 10:50:34-10:50:*39*.
But the main thread just invoking them and saving their results into a collection has finished at 10:50:*49*.
Why does it need #10 sec more just to save the data?

Note
   - dynamic sampling used for this statementI posted about it here a few years ago and I more recently posted a question on Asktom. Unfortunately Tom was not able to find a technical reason for it to be there so I'm still a little in the dark as to why it is needed. The original question I posted is here:
Pipelined function partition by hash has extra sort#
I ran your tests with HASH vs ANY and the results are in line with the observations above....
