Triggers inside a package

How do I use triggers within a package?

You don't. Triggers are pieces of code that we attach to database objects that contain events (tables, views) or events (logon, execute ddl). Of course, a trigger can execute stored procedures.
As I type this answer it occurs to me that you might be wanting to attach a trigger in order to do something every time a pacakage is excuted. If that is the case, then tell us what that something is and we may be able to ssuggest a workaround.

Triggers in a package

I need to create a lot of audit triggers.
Is it possible to put them all inside a package or a procedure so that they are all together instead of seeing 200 triggers under triggers in TOAD.

No. Triggers are database objects, like tables or views, and no more capabale of being packaged.
If organisation bothers you, you could create an auditor account to manage you audit system and have it own the audit triggers, rather than the table owner. In general we just have to live with cluttered schemas for big apps.

Multiple SQL task objects inside a package object is not generating proper DTSX

I am programmatically adding multiple ExecuteSQLtask objects inside a package. I am specifying all the required properties to the ExecuteSQLtask objects. However, when I save the package object to dtsx, the package looses the properties of some
of the ExecuteSQLtask object.
In the below example, I have created 3 ExecuteSQL task objects using the function AddSqlTask. However, once you run it, one of the objects will loose its properties. What makes it more weird is the fact that sometimes, object 1 looses the properties,
some times, its object number 2. Its random. I know that these objects are COM objects. Is there something I need to careful of when setting the properties ? Why are the values lost when I save them to DTSX ?

Declare object type inside the package

Hi,
How can I declare an object type inside the package?
CREATE TYPE TempObj AS OBJECT (
user_id number,
text varchar2(4000),
date_created DATE
This will not work if placed inside this:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE SAMPLE_PKG IS
---declaration goes here.
END SAMPLE_PKG;
I tried using the type RECORD and it worked. But I am just curious how to declare an Object. Or maybe RECORD is the replacement of Object? is this correct?
thanks,
Baldwin

The inside of a PL/SQL package should contain PL/SQL statements.
CREATE TYPE is not a PL/SQL statement. You can't create a table in package either.
If data protection is the reason that you would rather create the type inside the package, then consider using a record type as you suggested, or hiding the SQL type in a more protected schema.

No CDs inside the package.

I have just bought my mac recently. Why does not it contain CDs inside the package? My old mac comes with two CDs. This new mac has no CDs. I have problem with installing software. After I install the sofware, the OS X disappears. I need the CDs to recover my OS.

Are you running OSX Lion? Most likely you are if you have just purchased a Mac and no install media was included.
Macs with OSX Lion installed do not ship with media.
There is a hidden recovery partition on your drive. Startup holding command-R and boot into Recovery Mode.
You can re-install OSX Lion from the menu selection. You will need a network connection to download the OSX components.

Bind variable inside a package

Can we declare a bind variable inside a package specification?

VARIABLE O VARCHAR2(20);

Output:

or is there any alternative for bind variables inside an package
Thanks in advance

The "VARIABLE O VARCHAR2(20);" syntax is the way SQLPlus declared bind variables - it is specific to the client. Because PL/SQL packages and procedures are server code that continue past sessions, its only access to the client environment is what the client gives it - it can't go and create a bind variable in the client.
PL/SQL procedures, functions and packages run from lots of environments, so they cannot access bind variables inside their body - you have to pass any external variables as parameters.
Anonymous PL/SQL blocks can access bind variables.
You can declare package public global variables - just leave out that "VARIABLE". E.g.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE GET_EMPLOYEEDETAILS
IS
PROCEDURE GET_FIRSTNAME(E_ID IN EMP.EMPNO%TYPE, F_NAME OUT EMP.ENAME%TYPE);
O VARCHAR2(20);
END GET_EMPLOYEEDETAILS ;
For local variables in your procedure, just put them between the IS and BEGIN. Using them in SQL inside the PL/SQL automatically uses them as a bind variable.
create or replace PROCEDURE GET_FIRSTNAME(E_ID IN EMP.EMPNO%TYPE, F_NAME OUT EMP.ENAME%TYPE)
IS
O VARCHAR2(20);
O2 VARCHAR2(21);
BEGIN
O := 'FR%';
SELECT ENAME INTO F_NAME FROM EMP WHERE EMPNO = E_ID and ENAME like O;
O2 := F_NAME || '2';
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(F_NAME);
END;
O is bound in the query.
To access bind variables from anonymous PL/SQL, first declare them in the calling environment. In SQL Plus that's
VARIABLE O VARCHAR2(20);
In Pro*C it's
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
char[21] O
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;
Then reference it in anonymous PL/SQL with a colon as prefix:
BEGIN
SELECT FIRST_NAME INTO :O FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE EMPLOYEE_ID = E_ID;
END;
This only works for anonymous blocks (starting with BEGIN or DECLARE). As I said, PL/SQL procedures, functions and packages cannot see bind variables from the calling environment

Call a function inside a package from a stored procedure

Hello:
I am kind of new to the stored procedure. Does anyone know how to call a function inside a package from another stored procedure?
I have a existing function (func_b) inside a package (pack_a) and it returns a cursor. I want to call this function from a stored procedure (proc_c) so that I use the data inside the cursor.
can I do the following in proc_c:
my_cursor1 SYS_REFCURSOR;
begin
my_cursor1 := exec pack_a.func_b
end
It will be very helpful if anyone can point me to any reading or example. Thank you very much for your information.

guys:
Thank you for your information so far. I need some more help here. I was able to run the function in my stored procedure. However, I was not able to print the result on the screen to view the cursor result, although I am using dbms_output.put_line statement inside my stored procedure.
I use the following statement to execute my stored procedure on sql*plus. I can tell the stored procedure is executed successfully, but I did see anything printed:
DECLARE TEMP VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN PROC_LAWS_CAD_NAME_SEARCH('LPD', 'TEST DEVICE ID', 'TEST LAST NAME', 'TEST FIRST NAME', 'F', '11112009', TEMP); END;
I tried to use 'set serveroutput on' and got the following error:

Custom aggregate function inside a package.

Hi there,
I'm trying to write a custom aggregate function and group that function inside a package together with some other functions that I have. As an example (to simulate the problem I have) suppose my custom aggregation to do a summation of numbers looks like:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE AS OBJECT (
summation NUMBER,
STATIC FUNCTION ODCIAggregateInitialize(agg_context IN OUT
SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE) RETURN NUMBER,
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateIterate(self IN OUT SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
next_number IN NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER,
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateMerge(self IN OUT SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
para_context IN SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE) RETURN NUMBER,
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateTerminate(self IN SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
return_value OUT NUMBER, flags IN NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE BODY SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE IS
STATIC FUNCTION ODCIAggregateInitialize(agg_context IN OUT
SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE)
RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
agg_context := SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE(NULL);
RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END;
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateIterate(self IN OUT SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
next_number IN NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
IF self.summation IS NULL THEN
self.summation := next_number;
ELSIF summation IS NOT NULL THEN
self.summation := self.summation + next_number;
END IF;
RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END;
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateMerge(self IN OUT SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
para_context IN SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE)
RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
self.summation := self.summation + para_context.summation;
RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END;
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateTerminate(self IN SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
return_value OUT NUMBER, flags IN NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
return_value := self.summation;
return ODCIConst.Success;
END;
END;
If I write the following function definition:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION MY_SUM(input NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER PARALLEL_ENABLE AGGREGATE USING SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE;
and corresponding type declaration to test:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE VECTOR
IS
TABLE OF NUMBER;
this statement:
select my_sum(column_value) from table(vector(1, 2, 1, 45, 22, -1));
gives the correct result of 70. However, creating a package with the function definition:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE MY_FUNCTIONS AS
FUNCTION MY_SUM(input NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER PARALLEL_ENABLE AGGREGATE USING SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE;
END;
and calling it via:
select MY_FUNCTIONS.my_sum(column_value) from table(vector(1, 2, 1, 45, 22, -1));
explodes with:
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [17090], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], []
Is it possible to have custom aggregate functions nested inside package declarations?
I'm using Oracle 11g, Release 2 (11.2.0.1.0).

HiddenName wrote:
Is it possible to have custom aggregate functions nested inside package declarations?Yes, it is possible, you have succesfuly created your function. Your problem is that the database throws ORA-600 on execute. And with ORA-600 you can do 2 things: 1) google ORA-600 17090 or 2) contact your Oracle Support.
You could also try to declare the function without PARALLEL_ENABLE - just to try to see if it changes anything. You can also try to call your function against a regular table with rows and columns - not against an collection type with table() operator.
Anyway - these 2 tests should be usefull for Oracle Support.
I never tried to put a custom aggregate function into a package. First - the cases when you need a custom aggregate function to be written for your system are very rare. Second - even if I needed 1 then I never needed 2 or more custom aggregate functions on my system. And as I do not like to make my life more complex than necessary, I have created it as a stand-alone function. And it is works (slowly).I tried using a standard table as you suggested:
CREATE TABLE TEST_DATA
test_value NUMBER
INSERT INTO TEST_DATA
(SELECT column_value test_value from TABLE(vector(1, 2, 1, 45, 22, -1)));
COMMIT;
select my_sum(test_value) from test_data;
select my_functions.my_sum(test_value) from test_data;
I also tried removing the PARALLEL_ENABLE clause to create the package as follows:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE MY_FUNCTIONS AS
FUNCTION MY_SUM(input NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER AGGREGATE USING SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE;
END;
And unfortunately it still breaks with the following error: SQL Error: ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [17090]. This looks like an Oracle bug to me as the PL/SQL parsing engine should have disallowed me to even create this if it is not supported in Oracle. Instead, it allows me to create the package, and breaks when I call the function with this weird error (additionally cutting my connection from the database) instead of disallowing me to do this altogether and printing a nice error message telling me that Oracle doesn't support this. How would I go about logging a ticket for this?

Query for getting all function and procedure inside the packages

hi All
Please provide me Query for getting all function and procedure inside the packages
thanks

As Todd said, you can use user_arguments data dictionary or you can join user_objects and user_procedures like below to get the name of the packaged function and procedure names.
If you are looking for the packaged procedures and functions source then use user_source data dictionary
select a.object_name,a.procedure_name from user_procedures a,
user_objects b
where a.object_name is not null
and a.procedure_name is not null

IViews order inside a package

Hi
How do I specified the iView order inside my package, e.g., I have six different iViews, how do I make sure that they are displayed in the order that I want when I deploy to the portal? I noticed that it's based on the creation time, if I created iView 1 after the iView2, the number 2 will be displayed first.
Is there anyway to change this order?
Thank you,

Hi
I am not 100% sure why this is relevant, because once the package has been deployed to the portal, you can arrange it from within the portal any way you want.
