Using Oracle package variables in JDBC.

Can anybody know how we can use Oracle Package variable in Java/JDBC?
I am using a insert trigger on a table which will initialize the login user
from a package variable.In my log4j configuration file, while inserting data into this table, I am updating the user with my current user. But the insert statement is not identifying the user and it is inserting null.
PLease let me know.

Siva,
You said:
It is not inserting the user in the tableI see no table, here. Only a variable in a PL/SQL package.
You also said:
But the same is working in Oracle.Do you mean in SQL*Plus?
Siva, try to forget how you are doing it, and tell me what you are trying to do.
Do you have some UPDATE_USER column in your database tables where you record the username of the person who did the operation?
Are you trying to write a trigger that populates this column?
If so, then all you need is something like:
create or replace trigger MY_TRIG
after insert or update
on MY_TABLE
for each row
begin
:new.UPDATE_USER := user;
end;Good Luck,
Avi.
P.S. By the way, what has this to do with OC4J?

Using Oracle Packages in Oracle BI EE

I am trying to replicate old Discoverer reports in Oracle BI EE. In the old Discoverer reports, they would include the package and function information in the SELECT statement of the SQL. When I try to import the database information in BI EE, I can only get table and view information, not the packages. How do you access and use Oracle packages in BI EE? Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

If you have OBIEE 10.1.3.3 OBIEE you can use BI built-in EVALUATE function to call user-defined functions in database.
This function is intended for scalar and analytic calculations.
Syntax: EVALUATE('DB_Function(%1)', <Comma separated Expression>)
Example: SELECT e.lastname,sales.revenue,EVALUATE('dense_rank() over(order by %1 )',sales.revenue) FROM sales s, employee e;

XML Publisher/Bi Publisher Using Oracle Package and MS Word Template builde

My Question is I want to know more about grouping of elements while creating reports in E business suite.
my approach should be 1. pl sql package with embedded XML data to create xml output. 2. Formatting the xml output using ms word template builder plugin.
My question is if grouping is required, then where should it be? While creating package to generate xml output or while formatting xml o/p in ms word?
I wanted to create a check cancellation report where the report should look like below.
Bank Name American express
Bank address 1 Cape town city Road
bank address 2 Lane 2
Bank City Cape town
Branch Docara v'dola
Check number Amount Vendor Status
1023423 225 huawei Voided
1023430 500 Ericson Voided
Signature
Now for above grouping I Written some thing like below package:
But I want to know Had I not done the grouping in Package, would it have still be possible to do the grouping in MS Word template builder?
To simply fy question: If I had not written 2 cursors and written 1 simple cursor and had got simple 1 after 1 fields without any specific grouping in ora package, would it have been possible to do the same grouping while formatting the xml output in MS word template builder?
the part of code enclosed.

Hi,
You can do grouping in either place. But ideally to avoid re-grouping in the BI Publisher Template your XML would be generated such that it is appropriate for your template.
This is really important when it comes to very large datasets as you should avoid regrouping in the template in this case.

Cannot connect using oracle jdbc oci8 driver

I am using Oracle 8.1.5 JDBC oci8 driver, but when try to connect, always got ERROR: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:make_c_state
With the same code, but change to connect with thin driver, it works fine. Pls tell me the problem. Thank you.

Hi,
Here is the snippet code from oracle,
// You need to import the java.sql package to use JDBC
import java.sql.*;
// We import java.io to be able to read from the command line
import java.io.*;
class JdbcCheckup
public static void main (String args [])
throws SQLException, IOException
// Load the Oracle JDBC driver
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
// Prompt the user for connect information
System.out.println ("Please enter information to test connection to the database");
String user;
String password;
String database;
user = readEntry ("user: ");
int slash_index = user.indexOf ('/');
if (slash_index != -1)
password = user.substring (slash_index + 1);
user = user.substring (0, slash_index);
else
password = readEntry ("password: ");
database = readEntry ("database (a TNSNAME entry): ");
System.out.print ("Connecting to the database...");
System.out.flush ();
System.out.println ("Connecting...");
Connection conn =
DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:oracle:oci8:@" + database,
user, password);
System.out.println ("connected.");
// Create a statement
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement ();
// Do the SQL "Hello World" thing
ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery ("select 'Hello World' from dual");
while (rset.next ())
System.out.println (rset.getString (1));
System.out.println ("Your JDBC installation is correct.");
// close the resultSet
rset.close();
// Close the statement
stmt.close();
// Close the connection
conn.close();
// Utility function to read a line from standard input
static String readEntry (String prompt)
try
StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer ();
System.out.print (prompt);
System.out.flush ();
int c = System.in.read ();
while (c != '\n' && c != -1)
buffer.append ((char)c);
c = System.in.read ();
return buffer.toString ().trim ();
catch (IOException e)
return "";
This code can be run without specifying a TNSNAME connection string, as the oci8 jdbc driver will take localhost as default.
OR
Only specifying the TNSNAME is enough, i.e. edit %ORACLE_HOME%\network\ADMIN\TNSNAMES.ORA file and locate the XXXXX.WORLD entry in the file. This is the TNSNAME entry referred to.
Without TNSNAME entry you can re-run,
%ORACLE_HOME%\jdbc\demo\samples\oci8\basic-samples> java JdbcCheckup
Please enter information to test connection to the database
user: system
password: manager
database (a TNSNAME entry):
Connecting to the database...Connecting...
connected.
Hello World
Your JDBC installation is correct.
Hope that helps.
Best Luck!

Error trying to run SSIS Package via SQL Server Agent: DTExec: Could not set \Package.Variables[User::VarObjectDataSet].Properties[Value] value to System.Object

Situation:
SSIS Package designed in SQL Server 2012 - SQL Server Data Tools
Windows 7 - 64 bit.
The package (32 bit) extracts data from a SQL Server db to an Excel Output file, via an OLE DB connection.
It uses 3 package variables:
*) SQLCommand (String) to specify the SQL Statement to be executed by the package
Property path: \Package.Variables[User::ExcelOutputFile].Properties[Value]
Value: f:\Output Data.xls
*) EXCELOutputFIle (String) to specify path and filename of the Excel output file
Property path: \Package.Variables[User::SQLCommand].Properties[Value]
Value: select * from CartOrder
*) VarObjectDataSet (Object) to hold the data returned by SQL Server)
Property path: \Package.Variables[User::VarObjectDataSet].Properties[Value]
Value: System.Object
It consists out of 2 components:
*) Execute SQL Task: executes the SQL Statement passed on via a package variable. The resultng rows are stored in the package variable VarObjectDataSet
*) Script Task: creates the physical output file and iterates VarObjectDataSet to populate the Excel file.
Outcome and issue:The package runs perfectly fine both in SQL Server Data Tools itself and in DTEXECUI.
However, whenever I run it via SQL Server Agent (with 32 bit runtime option set), it returns the errror message below.
This package contains 3 package variables but the error stating that a package variable can not be set, pops up for the VarObjectDataSet only. This makes me wonder if it is uberhaupt possible to set the value of a package variable
of type Object.
Can anybody help me on this please ?

Thank you very much in advance

Hi Visakh,
thank you for your reply.
So, judging by your reply, not all package variables used inside a package need to be set a value for when run in DTEXEC ?
I already tried that but my package ended up in error (something to do with "... invocation ...." and that error is anything but clearly documented. Judging by the error message itself, it looks like it could be just about anything. that is why I asked my
first question about the object type package variable.
Now, I will remove it from the 'set values' list and try another go cracking the unclear error-message " ... invocation ...". Does an error message about " ... invocation ..." ring any bells, now that we are talking about it here ?
Thx in advance
Jurgen
Yes exactly
You need to set values only forthem which needs to be controlled from outside the package
Any variable which gets its value through expression set inside package or through a query inside execute sql task/script task can be ignored from DTExec
Ok I've seen the invocation error mostly inside script task. This may be because some error inside script written in script task. If it appeared after you removed the variable then it may because some reference of variable existing within script task.
Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs

Package variable

Can anyone tell me how to access package variables from forms6. When I tried to access, it says 'Implementation Restriction : '|variable name|' : Cannot directly access remote package variable '. Is there any other way to access these variables.
Thanks in advance,
Partha

Anton,
Thanks for your reply. And this is a very good idea. since I have so many variables to store in the package, I think I need to pass variable name also to the function. I am exploring this feature mainly to replace global variables in forms. could you tell me how best is this idea of replacing global variables in forms with package variables ? and also if you have any sample code using these package variables in forms, could you please send me that.
Thanks

Workaround for using Oracle JDBC extension with WLS pooling

Reading the newsgroup I saw that many of us encountered the problems
with ClassCastException when tried to use Oracle JDBC extension
with WLS pooling. I also had.
In this case BEA recommends to use dangerous
method getVendorConnection() which exposes
the physical connection object to your code.
Yes it's really dangerous because of unsafe usage may breaks
WLS pooled connection(s).
Moreover, this practice will make your JDBC code
unportable (your JDBC code in addition to Oracle dependence
became Weblogic dependent):
void doSmth() {
Connection con = ...;
Connection vCon = ((WLConnection)con).getVendorConnection();
// + mess of usage con in one places and vCon in others
// (where Oracle extensions are needed)
// !Don't forget to don't close vCon!
Sux.
I found the workaround.
Introduction
============
Yes the real cause of ClassCastException is that
in depth of Oracle driver the casting
to class oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection
(not to interface oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection)
is performed.
Someone can say that this is bug or pure desing.
Weblogic pooled connection provide dynamic
implementation for all public interfaces
which real physical (wrapped) connection object implements.
Great feature!
But I guess that all interface methods implemented
by simple call-delegation to physical (wrapped) connection object.
In case of oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection interface
this approach doesn't work for at least one its method:
public OracleConnection unwrap()
WLS pooled connection shoudn't implement this method by
delegation to physical connection object BUT should
return physical connection object itself!
// Wrong implementation of unwrap()
// delegation is used
public OracleConnection unwrap() {
return physicalConnection.unwrap();
// Right implementation of unwrap()
// physical connection returned
public OracleConnection unwrap() {
return physicalConnection;
Workaround
==========
1. Develop your own OracleConnection wrapper class:
import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection;
import weblogic.jdbc.extensions.WLConnection;
public class MyOracleConnectionImpl implements OracleConnection {
private OracleConnection con;
public MyOracleConnectionImpl(OracleConnection connection)
throws SQLException
this.con = connection;
public OracleConnection unwrap() {
return (OracleConnection)
((WLConnection)con).getVendorConnection();
/* Implement all other methods by delegation to con object */
2. Don't get Connections directly from DataSource --
develop your own simple (may be static) utility
class which retrives Connections from dataSource
and returns them wrapped into your MyOracleConnectionImpl
to your code from some method:
puclic abstract class MyConnectionSource {
public static Connection getConnection() {
Connection con = // get it from DataSource
return new MyOracleConnectionImpl((OracleConnection)con);
3. Add attribute RemoveInfectedConnectionsEnabled="false"
to definition of your JDBCConnectionPool within config.xml
You may do it because of you `safely` use vendorConnection --
you don't expose it to application code.
4. Enjoy the Oracle JDBC extensions in your code!
Example:
Connection con = MyConnectionSource.getConnection;
ArrayDescriptor add =
ArrayDescriptor.createDescriptor("your_type", con);
Hope it helps to someone.

Hello Eugene Voytitsky,
Thanks Eugene Voytitsky for your idea
I have tried the solution suggested by You, but it did not work.
It still throws ClassCastException.
I am sorry for posting the whole code of two classes below.
I did this to give you more clarity.
I am also indicating the place where the exception was thrown..
Please let me know if I am doing something wrong.

How to call a stored procedure using its package name in Oracle

hi
we're doing a JDBC scenario where we call a stored procedure(a.prc) using its package name(b)The stored procedure has In /Out/IN-OUT parameter.
i have got 2 queries:
1- How to call the stored procedure using it's package.
2- How to capture the In/Out parameter in the response.

hi Prateek
thanks for the reply.
However when i tried mapping it to Package.procedure, communication channel throws the error saying that Package.proceudre needs to be declared.
As i said , the procedure has IN-OUT parameter too.In oracle we need to write a block if we want to read the IN-OUT parameter.
How to get the IN-OUT parameter in XI?

Sql_trace does not work for Java app using Oracle JDBC thin driver

Hi,
I'm using Oracle 8.1.7. I enabled sql trace at instance level by setting sql_trace and timed_statistics to true in init.ora. I restarted the db instance. I wrote a stand-alone java application which used Oracle JDBC thin driver(classes12.zip) to make a connection to my db instance, do some select statements, and close the connection. There were no trace files generated in the folder specified by udump_dest variable. However, if I used sqlplus or dba studio, I saw trace files generated. Has anyone got Oracle sql trace work for JDBC calls from java apps.
Thanks in advance!

Error oracle.sql.* and oracle.jdbc.driver.* not found when using oracle as a database

I am using oracle as database and weblogic 4.5. I have copied the classes12.zip file in lib directory of weblogic. I am getting the error that oracle.sql.* and oracle.jdbc.driver.* not found when i am importing these packages in a jsp file. what i need to do to import oracle driver packages?I put it in the classpath also.
Please Advice!
Thanks in advance
AnuPama

Hi Anupama,
First of all I would be surprised if you would not like to use the connection pooling feature of weblogic (in which case you might not be needing the import the classes directly), and would like to open direct connections to your database. Anyways for doing that I would recommend you to check out the readme doc that ships
along with the jdbc oracle (classes12.zip etc). I am giving an excerpt over here:
These are a few simple things that you should do in your JDBC program:
1. Import the necessary JDBC classes in your programs that use JDBC.
For example:
import java.sql.*;
import java.math.*;
2. Register the Oracle driver before before calling other JDBC APIs.
(This is not needed if you are using the JDBC Server-side Internal
Driver because registration is done automatically in the server.)
To register the Oracle driver, make sure the following statement
is executed at least once in your Java session:
DriverManager.registerDriver(
new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
3. Open a connection to the database with the getConnection call.
Different connection URLs should be used for different JDBC
drivers. The following examples demonstrate the different URLs.
For the JDBC OCI8 Driver:
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:oracle:oci8:@<database>",
"scott", "tiger");
where <database> is either an entry in tnsnames.ora or a SQL*net
name-value pair.
For the JDBC Thin Driver, or Server-side Thin Driver:
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:oracle:thin:@<database>",
"scott", "tiger");
where <database> is either a string of the form
<host>:<port>:<sid> or a SQL*net name-value pair.
For the JDBC Server-side Internal Driver:
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:oracle:kprb:");
Note that the trailing ':' character is necessary. When you use
the Server-side Internal Driver, you always connect to the
database you are executing in. You can also do this:
Connection conn
= new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver().defaultConnection();
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

Integrating Oracle APPS with APEX using popay_apex package...

Hi,
I am a newbie in APEX and tried to explore it only a few months back...
I must admit that this tool is Awesome..!!!
Also, I tried to integrate Oracle EBS 11i with APEX using [popay package |https://sites.google.com/a/popay.be/apex-on-apps/integration] and the integration was absolutely fantastic...!!!
h6. (Thanks Thierry for your impecabble work on developing and releasing this excellent package under BSD License !!!)
My question is,
I have created an Online Leave Application (OLA) in APEX which should retrieve the username from EBS Login and display the leave information of that particular user.
I have created the OLA in APEX and registered it in EBS as a form function and also attached it to a user responsibility.
When I run the form thru the EBS Responsibility logged in as a EBS user, the OLA Application opens in a new window...
But,
The username is retrieved as APPS instead of the user's login info.
because of this retrieval the global variable :APP_USER is storing the username as APPS and all my internal references with :APP_USER has been erroring with "NO DATA FOUND", since there is no user login as APPS.
Is there any way to overcome this bottleneck...?
Or Do I need to add any code in the APEX >Application >Security > VPD
Thanks in Advance...
Ben

Hi,
I have solved the issue, Thanks to Rod & Thierry !
I have created a cookie to send the apps username to my APEX application.
(Added this code snippet in the popay_apex.start_application procedure)
--------<CODE>------------------------------------------
l_user := fnd_global.USER_NAME;
OWA_COOKIE.send
+(NAME=>'APEX',+
VALUE=>l_user,
path=>'/');
---------<ENDS>----------------------------------------
(Created an on-load before header process at page 1 and fetched the cookie value to an application item.)
-----------<CODE>-------------------------------------
DECLARE
c OWA_COOKIE.cookie;
a wwv_flow_global.vc_arr2;
BEGIN
c := OWA_COOKIE.get('APEX');
a := htmldb_util.string_to_table(c.vals(1));
+:F101_USER := a(1);+
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
NULL;
END;
-------------<ENDS>---------------------------------------
It's a mashup of Rod & Thierry's work....!
Hat's off to Rod & Thierry !
