Using a param in a IN clause

I would like to pass a parameter to a stored proc and then use that in a select that defines a cursor. Something like this:
create or replace
PROCEDURE ImportStuff (p_criteria IN VARCHAR2) AS
cursor c_SelectedItems IS
Select *
FROM stg_Items
Where colCriteria in (p_criteria );
BEGIN
for v_cr in c_SelectedItems
-- do something interesting
end loop;
Its not perfect, but I hope you get the gist. The thing is that it works fine when I pass a single value, but fails (or at least behaves very oddly) when I pass in a comma delimited list of criteria. I echoed out the p_criteria and it appears to be valid, ie no escape character issues, etc. so I would think that it would just pop in and complete the cursor query and be fine.
Its just not working the way I would think.
Any ideas?

Check this link. I think this is what you are after.

XSQL Using bind params with sql LIKE clause

I am unable to use a bind-param with the LIKE clause in a SELECT statement.
eg call .../temp.xsql?name=N
XSQL query is this:
<xsql:query max-rows="-1" bind-params="name">
SELECT last_name
FROM emp
WHERE last_name LIKE '?%'
</xsql:query>
I have tried a few combinations so far with no success eg:
WHERE last_name LIKE '{@name}%'
WHERE last_name LIKE ?||%
Any ideas?

I highly recommend using XSQL's real bind variable feature wherever you can. You can read about it in the XSQL Online Documentation (Search for the "Using Bind Variables" section).
Using this feature is more performant and more secure than using textual substitution variables.
Here's what your page looks like using textual substitution:
<page connection="UTD4" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
<xsql:query null-indicator="yes" >
SELECT * FROM TC_HL7_SEG WHERE SEGMENT_CODE LIKE '{@code}%'
</xsql:query>
</page> .
And here's what it would look like using real bind variables:
<page connection="UTD4" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
<xsql:query null-indicator="yes" bind-params="code">
SELECT * FROM TC_HL7_SEG WHERE SEGMENT_CODE LIKE ?||'%'
</xsql:query>
</page> .
Using real bind variables allows the database to avoid reparsing the SQL statement everytime, which improves performance.

Dynamic SELECT clause using lexical param

Aloha all.
I've been working with Report 6i for a while now, but was
wondering if anyone had success using lexical parameters in the
SELECT clause. I've done it in the WHERE clause many times.
Here's what I want to do:
select &column_list from &table_list where &cond_list
where &column_list will be a dynamic number of columns. I know
you can do this, but how do you display the dynamic columns back
to the report?
Thanks in advance.
Floyd Casem

You can pass each column as a parameter:
select
&p_column1 column1,
&p_column2 column2,
from &p_table table
&p_where
You will of course have to find a way of hiding the not needed
columns, but I think it can work with a little bit of work.

Using jsp:param

hi,
i am new to java and jsp programming and i am trying to use jsp:param nested in my
jsp:forward statement.
if i specify a value in jsp:param my page would display properly. however when i passed a variable in my jsp:param i get the error:
Generated servlet error:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\work\Standalone\localhost\star\jsp\Meeting_CreateMinutes_jsp.java:135: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : method encode (long)
location: class java.net.URLEncoder
pageContext.forward("Meeting_ActionItems.jsp" + "?" + "docno=" + java.net.URLEncoder.encode( carno ) + "&" + "formmode=" + "Add");
^
1 error
this is the snippet in my jsp page that (i suspect) caused the error:
<% long carno = newcar.getDocno(); %>
<jsp:forward page="Meeting_ActionItems.jsp">
<jsp:param name="docno" value="<%= carno %>"/>
<jsp:param name="formmode" value="Add"/>
</jsp:forward>
my question is : does jsp:param do not accept variables as values?
thanks in advance.
best regards,
noynoy

<% long carno = newcar.getDocno(); %>Change this part as
<% String carno = ""+newcar.getDocno(); %>

SCJPhi Hafizur,
Thanks a lot. It solved my problem on the jsp:param error
More power!!!

Not sure about the GROUPBY function referencing the "crd." .

Hi,
The best thing for you to do is start over. Start as small as possible, then take baby steps.
Pick one of the tables; fcr perhaps, and write a query that just uses that table, like this:
SELECT    *
FROM       apps.fnd_concurrent_requests     fcr
WHERE       fcr.actual_start_date          >= TRUNC (SYSDATE)
AND       fcr.actual_start_dt          < TRUNC (SYSDATE) + 1
;(I think this is what you meant to do when you said "... LIKE SYSDATE".)
Make sure this little query gets credible results. When that tiny query is working perfectly, add another line or two. You can cut and paste code from what you posted, if that helps you.
If you get stuck, post the last version of your code that worked perfectly, and the latest version (only a line or two bigger) that has the problem. Describe what the problem is. If you get an error, post the complete error message. In any event, post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for all the tables and columns needed to run the query, and the results you want to get from that query.
When you post any code, format it, so that how the code looks on the screen gives some clues about how it is working.
When you post any formatted text on this site, type these 6 characters:
\(small letters only, inside curly brackets) before and after each section of formatted text, to preserve spacing.
If you going to use the AVG function in the sub-query, then you probably need to do a GROUP BY in the sub-query.
If you're not using any aggregate functions (like AVG) in the main query, then you probably don't want to do a GROUP BY in the main query.
I know this is a lot of work. I'm sorry. If there was an easier way, I wouldn't ask you to do all this.

How to use application params in .EAR files

When we build an ear file , Weblogic-application.xml provides application-param
tag?
are they similar to env-entry in ejb-jar.xml.
Can I use application-param tag to define a configurable params
say myName and value as "Harshad"
How do i read it in the application say a simple java class that is included in
a jar inside the ear file.

application-param tag in weblogic-application.xml may be used to define parameters:
webapp.encoding.default
webapp.encoding.usevmdefault
webapp.getrealpath.accept_context_path

Using ROWID in the ORDER BY clause

Hi,
I can consider myself as a PL/SQL beginner. I need to query some existing tables created for audit scope.
These tables have more duplicate rows respect to the same audit date: the precision is at "hour and minute and second" level.
But I need to understand which is the more recent row for the same audit date. So I think to use in the SELECT statement
the clause ORDER BY in this manner:
SELECT ... FROM Audit_Table ORDER BY Audit_Date desc, ROWID desc.
I'd like to use this ORDER BY also for the ROW_NUMBER function.
Any suggests to me about this topic? Many thanks

I don't need to provide an example, I can do better by pointing you to the documentation:
http://docs.oracle.com/database/121/SQLRF/pseudocolumns008.htm#SQLRF00254
"If you delete a row, then Oracle may reassign its rowid to a new row inserted later" - for example
I can point you to asktom: https://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:912210644860
"ROWIDs are NOT sortable" - for example
Your example just happened to work, but you are using the rowid semantically incorrect.

Use of group by and having clause

hi frnds
can anybody explain me the use of group by an having clause in select state ment

Hi Rohit,
1. GROUP BY f1 ... fn
2. GROUP BY (itab)
1. GROUP BY f1 ... fn
Effect
Groups database table data in a SELECT command on one line in the result set. A group is a set of lines which all have the same values in each column determined by the field descriptors f1 ... fn.
... GROUP BY f1 ... fn always requires a list in the SELECT clause. If you use field descriptors without an aggregate funciton in the SELECT clause, you must list them in the GROUP BY f1 ... fn clause.
Example
Output the number of passengers, the total weight and the average weight of luggage for all Lufthansa flights on 28.02.1995:
TABLES SBOOK.
DATA: COUNT TYPE I, SUM TYPE P DECIMALS 2, AVG TYPE F.
DATA: CONNID LIKE SBOOK-CONNID.
SELECT CONNID COUNT( * ) SUM( LUGGWEIGHT ) AVG( LUGGWEIGHT )
       INTO (CONNID, COUNT, SUM, AVG)
       FROM SBOOK
       WHERE
         CARRID   = 'LH'       AND
         FLDATE   = '19950228'
       GROUP BY CONNID.
WRITE: / CONNID, COUNT, SUM, AVG.
ENDSELECT.
Note
... GROUP BY f1 ... fn is not supported for pooled and cluster tables.
2. GROUP BY (itab)
Effect
Works like GROUP BY f1 ... fn if the internal table itab contains the list f1 ... fn as ABAP source code. The internal table itab can only have one field. This field must be of the type C and should not be more than 72 characters long. itab must be enclosed in parentheses and there should be no blanks between the parentheses and the table name.
Note
The same restrictions apply to this variant as to GROUP BY f1 ... fn.
Example
Output all Lufthansa departure points with the number of destinations:
TABLES: SPFLI.
DATA:   BEGIN OF WA.
          INCLUDE STRUCTURE SPFLI.
DATA:     COUNT TYPE I.
DATA:   END OF WA.
DATA:   WA_TAB(72) TYPE C,
        GTAB LIKE TABLE OF WA_TAB,
        FTAB LIKE TABLE OF WA_TAB,
        COUNT TYPE I.
CLEAR: GTAB, FTAB.
WA_TAB = 'COTYFROM COUNT( * ) AS COUNT'. APPEND FTAB.
APPEND WA_TAB TO FTAB.
WA_TAB = 'CITYFROM'.
APPEND WA_TAB TO GTAB.
SELECT DISTINCT (FTAB)
       INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF WA
       FROM SPFLI
       WHERE
         CARRID   = 'LH'
       GROUP BY (GTAB).
WRITE: / WA-CITYFROM, WA-COUNT.
ENDSELECT.

Help: on using xsl:param

I am working on some xsl codes to do transformation,
I have some codes like this:
<xsl:template match="mytemplate">
<xsl:param name="myparam"><xsl:number value="count()"/></xsl:param>
function myfunction_{$cid} ()

</xsl:template>
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Why would you use <xsl:param> to do that? Try this instead:
function myfunction_<xsl:number value="count()"/> ()
Or if you saw an example of an attribute value template somewhere else and tried to use it without understanding it, how about this:
<xsl:variable name="cid"><xsl:number value="count()"/></xsl:variable>
function myfunction_{$cid} ()
Finally, what does this have to do with Java? There are plenty of active XSL mail lists where you would be much more likely to get a useful answer.

How to use Special value set with Column clause to display addtional column

hi
can anyone tell me
How to use Special value set with Column clause to display addtional column
how can i use FND POPID and with COLUMN clause ?

Dear Yaseen,
To get the value in formula cumulative,after you have created the formula for that particular key figure,go to edit and click on tab "calculations".
In that select overall result as 'count all values not equal to zero' and single result as 'count all values not equal to zero' .
And mark the cumulative check box underneath.
I hope you get the desired result and please do me favour .

Using xsql params w/in oracle text "contains" clause

Hello,
Regarding the xsql code below:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="hrefs.xsl"?>
<page connection="rxschema" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
<xsql:query file="%winping-utility%" version="1.0"
null-indicator="yes" link="">
select distinct c.contentpathname
from rx_schema.ct_shared s, rx_schema.contentstatus c
where s.contentid = c.contentid
and contains (s.ul_file, '{@link} within href') > 0
and s.revisionid = (select max(revisionid)
from rx_schema.ct_shared
where contentid = s.contentid)
order by contentpathname
</xsql:query>
</page>
specifically this line:
and contains (s.ul_file, '{@link} within href') > 0
This query doesn't work, I think the "{@link}" xsql param (passed in) is being interpreted as an xml attribute (since it's within the "contains" clause), is there a way to force it to read this as a param? I also tried it w/o the braces (and I also verified that it works when I hardcode a value in place of "@link").
Thanks,
JSK

The syntax of a 'Contains' query should contain only the 'Contains' query operators.

Using bind variable in dynamic where clause and concatenate with query

How to use order by within Group by clause

Hi All,
I need a help as to how should i use the Order by clause so that the data should be in order with respect to one column, and at the same time whole data is grouped by some other column...like
Select RaceNo,Venue,FP,BP from Race group by RaceNo
Here I want to order by FP in ascending order for each group. When i am using it , whole order is changing.
Can anybody suggest me how to use order by clause that would apply to each group of data.
Thanks .

order by clause should be used at the last in any query.......but in group by clause u can't use use that becoz u group according to column then no ordering is needed there......if u want to filter something then u can use having clause and later if u need to arrange then u can use order by clause.........
i hope this eg.l gives u some clarification....
e.g
select deptno,count(empno)
from dept
group by deptno
having count(empno) > 10
order by deptno
