What is maximum  length of oracle database objects name

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me what is maximum length of oracle database objects name .
I guess it is 30 ,correct me if i am wrong thank you.
regards,
P Prakash

Some objects (like synonyms or java classes) can have longer names than 30 chars:
SQL> create or replace synonym empempempempempempempempempempempempemp for emp
Synonym created.though internally oracle will generate short names for such objects:
SQL> select synonym_name from user_synonyms where synonym_name like '%EMPEMPEM%'
SYNONYM_NAME                 
/969ea190_EMPEMPEMPEMPEMPEMPEM
1 row selected.and not always will the long name be actually usable:
SQL> select * from empempempempempempempempempempempempemp
Error at line 1
ORA-00972: identifier is too long

  • Oracle database object name 30 characters  limit

    Hi,
    I'm working with Oracle since version 8 and I know about this restriction. I was hopping that this will be eliminated in the future, but I saw that in Oracle 11i the same restriction exists.
    Does anyone know if it will be eliminated in a future release?
    I would like to know if there is a reason why this limitation exists. We are currently developing an JPA application and we have tables that have name with more than 30 characters.
    Thanks!

    because all table/index names must be stored in the data dictionary and that storage is only allocated for 30 characters

  • Whats the maximum length array and why?

    Whats the maximum length array and why?
    I tryed to search the forum but most people was wondering about the maximun length of a String..

    for(int i =20;i<=32;i++) {
         try {
              int[] p = new int[(int)Math.pow(2,i)];
              pause(2000); // So that gc doesn't clean away the array before
                              // The OS memory manager gets to update.
              System.out.println("Paused! i: " + i);
         } catch(OutOfMemoryError e) {
              System.out.println("Ex!!");
              pause(10000); // Same sa before.
    void pause(int p) {
         try {
              Thread.sleep(p);
         } catch (Exception e) {}
    }I worte this little code to test this.

  • Validation of database object names

    Hello. I need a function that can check whether a given string is a valid database object name. For example:
    IsValid('col1') -> Yes
    IsValid('col 1') -> No
    IsValid('1col') -> No
    Is there any build in the Oracle or does anyone have such an UDF?
    Thank is advance.

    You can use the wildly inappropriately named comma_to_table procedure. It checks the name and generates an exception if it is not valid.
    SQL> var s varchar2(30)
    SQL> exec :s := 'col1'
    PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
    SQL> declare

      6    dbms_output.put_line ('Valid:   ' || :s);

  • What's wrong with my Oracle Database Installation?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install Oracle Database 11gR2 on a newly-created Oracle Linux 5.7 64-bit system. There's 25GB of available harddrive space and about 1700MB free RAM.
    I followed everything in this guide:
    http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g/OracleDB11gR2InstallationOnEnterpriseLinux5.php
    To begin my installation, I log into user "oracle" and do the following:
         1) Unzip linux.x64_11gR2_database_1of2.zip and linux.x64_11gR2_database_2of2.zip to create the directory /home/oracle/database
         2) Set up my response file (a copy can be found at http://x.petio.org/2011/11/30/db.rsp)
         3) Run the installer:
              /home/oracle/database/runInstaller –silent –responseFile /path/to/db.rsp
    The result is:
    [FATAL] [INS-32038] The operating system group specified for central inventory (oraInventory) ownership is invalid.
    CAUSE: User performing installation is not a member of the operating system group specified for central inventory(oraInventory) ownership.
    ACTION: Specify an operating system group that the installing user is a member of. All the members of this operating system group will have write permission to the central inventory directory (oraInventory).
    Could someone please tell me what this error means, and what I'm doing wrong? The group for oraInventory is "oinstall" and user "oracle" (the user doing the installation) is certainly a member of that group. When I run "id" I get the following: "uid=502(oracle) gid=505(oinstall) groups=503(dba),504(asmadmin),505(oinstall),506(oper)"
    Here's the log files:
         http://x.petio.org/2011/11/30/installActions2011-11-30_09-19-27AM.log

    Hi;
    Nevermind I figured it out. My UNIX_GROUP_NAME was set to "oracle" and should have been "oinstall".Nice to hear ;) Thanks for sharing soluiton,if it possible when u belive your thread has been answered, it pretend to lose time of other forums user while they are searching open question which is not answered,thanks for understanding

  • What is maximum length .mov file that can be used in iDVD?

    Hello Appleheads
    I created an HD .mov file in iMovie which I had added as a movie in iDVD - I find this works best for me, as exporting directly to iDVD from iMovie always results in stuttering when played back on a regular DVD player.
    The .mov file is 2 hours and 14 minutes long, and 10.5GB
    Am I right in thinking that the maximum length is 1 hour and 39 minutes? And does the size (GBs) have any bearing.
    Many thanks - Brion

    Hi Brion
    Gbs or Mbs - doesn't play any role what so ever.
    Time does - Time is = Movie duration + MENU DURATION
    (a complex menu can easily take 15 minutes or even more)
    iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (vers 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1)
       iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST
    • Best Performances (movies + menus  less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6) (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    About double on DL DVDs.

  • Maximum length that a database table field can hold

    Hello All,
    I am creating a database table to store different values corresponding to a particular feature coming under different countries. Some of the values have to hold more than 700characters, which is basically like a paragraph. I have found that the maximum length a table field can hold is 255characters.
    Is there any way by which i can enter more than 500 characters.
    Thanks In Advance,
    Shino

    Hi,
    If the Max length that is required is 700 characters then:
    1) Isn't it possible in your case to divide the same into mutiple Fields of having 255 length each.
    2) In sap there are some tables which store whole Code like table for storing Code for reports in SAP is
        REPOSRC  But the whole code is first stored in Hexadecimal format and not in terms of direct characters.
    May be on same lines you can change the CHARACTER format and then store it and again convertt he same for further use.
    You can have look into the Table REPOSRC . May be it helps.

  • What is so good about Oracle Database?

    Dear Sir,
    The project that I'm working on is using Oracle database. Therefore, I don't have not much experience in other rdbms.
    Sometime my customer ask, what is so good about oracle compare to others like ms sql server, sybase, informix, mysql and so on.
    So, hope someone can give some distinctive strength about Oracle database. This is important for me as well as customer so that we can understand that why using Oracle database is the right choice.
    Please advise.
    Thanks.

    i use napster to discover new music. if i really like it, i track down the CD. 28k wma's or mp3s or whatever sound pretty bad. you're not right about them sounding like cassettes. i think you are forgetting just how bad cassettes sound. most 28k's i've heard sound better then cassettes, but paying $9.99 for 28k tracks....NO WAY. $3 for 28ks? sure the upside of 28ks over cassettes tho is the fact that you can transfer the files around from player to player and mp3s dont get stretched out in the sun :smileyvery-happy:

  • What is the use of Offline Database Object in SOA

    Hi All,
    Can anyone let me know the purpose of Offline Database Object in SOA.
    1) When we will create the Offline Database Object in soa ?
    2) How do we connect this object to any data base schema ?
    Note:- Please provide me the example on this
    Thanks,

    Hi Dominik,
            Thanks for the repy !!!!
    Now, as you said we can access a (deep) node of the whole model using an access object.
    Let us consider the component set ONEORDER. As seen we can use the following path to reach BTDocFlowAll using search object :-
    BTQuery1O -> BTOrder  -> BTOrderHeader  -> BTHeaderDocFlowSet -> BTDocFlowSet -> BTDocFlowAll ....
    Also, to reach BTDocFlowAll we can even use the access object as follows :-
    BTAdminI -> BTItemDocFlowSet  -> BTDocFlowAll....
    Now my question is :-
    Normally we use the class cl_crm_bol_query_service to fire a search based on a search object. Can we use the same class to fire a search based on access object ?
    (actually I currently dont have a CRM system so I could not try it out myself).
    If not, then how do we fire a query using an access object ?
    Regards,

  • What is maximum length of CAT5e cable that HH3 can...

    The wireless signal is weak in our home office in the garden so I installed a CAT5e cable to give me a LAN connection to the computer.  The cable is 30 m long and I have checked the connections (from the LAN connection lead into the router to the connection lead into the computer) with a suitable meter which gave me green lights throughout.  However there is no signal at the computer.  I have tried all 4 connections at the HH3. I have connected my laptop into the HH3 using the same lead that connects from the hub to the socket in the wall that connects to the CAT5e cable to the office and it works fine.  I take the laptop to the office and but there it says there is no signal.  According to BT website a CAT5e cable can be up to 100m and phone up to 150m.  I cannot find any way of contacting BT that gets me to someone who might know (I did try their "typing conversation", with someone telling me it was 10 m and then eventually admitting they did not know anything about networks!).
    Is the HH3 not man enough for the job or is there something wrong with it and I need to use snail mail to write to Mr Warren Buckley to complain?

    Maximum cable segment length:
    According to the ANSI/TIA/EIA standard for category 5e copper cable (TIA/EIA 568-5-A), the maximum length for a cable segment is 100 meters (328 feet). If longer runs are required, the use of active hardware such as a repeater or switch is necessary.
    I have a cable run of 50mtrs and it works no problem from a Homehub 2.
    Are you using a patch cable or a crossover cable.Cables come in two flavors, straight through, also called a patch cable and a crossover cable. Normally when you connect Ethernet stuff like connecting a PC to a hub you would use a patch cable.
    If you connect two like things together, PC to PC or Hub to Hub you need a crossover cable.

  • Retrieve all source database object names from an application in APEX 4.0

    Hello
    I have completed an application developed in APEX 4.0 ( @Oracle 10g database ).
    Now we need to migrate the scripts including all database objects that support the application from Schema A to Schema B.
    Is there a report I can run to provide me the information like this :
    Page number, Name of the database object used ( including table, view and sequence )
    This would allow me to examine each database object used in Schema A and make sure the same object and data have been copied to Schema B without missing anything.
    Thanks
    Susanna

    Hi,
    On APEX 4.1 there is Database Object Dependencies Report
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21674/bldr_app_rpt.htm#CEGGAICH
    I'm not sure is this feature in APEX 4.0
