What is meant by T-SQL error handling

 Designing T-SQL Error Handling ,Implementing T-SQL Error Handling
Could please any one explain with simple example  
Thanks 

In T-SQL before TRY-CATCH:
http://www.sqlusa.com/bestpractices2005/duplicateinsert/
there was RAISERROR:
http://www.sqlusa.com/bestpractices2005/updatetrigger/
The bottom line though, you need to code preventively so the error handlers are not hit because that is a headache for the application.
Example for preventive coding: use a
CASE expression to prevent divide by zero.

  • What is Considered Best Practice for Error Handling in Components?

    What would be the best approach to handling errors in custom (possibly composite) components?
    I see three different possibilities:
    Having the error handling funciton within the component. The problem is that this is not adaptable to the consumers error handling setup (i.e. logging to database, redirecting to a pretty error screen, etc.).
    Passing in an error function as a parameter. The problem here is how to have the externally defined error function interact with external elements that are not defined within the component, i.e. passing the error or fault object to a logging class, or something similar, of which the component knows nothing about.
    Referencing the external error handling methods directly from within the component. (Of course that's shabby programming, just listing as a technical option.)
    How do you solve this?
    My goal is to have a versatile custom component that can utilize any given consumer's error handler.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    or define a customized event and dispatch it when error occur, then you can just listen to it outside

  • Nees for better SQL error handling???

    Hello everybody!
    I am having problems with identifying the reason why SQLExceptions are thrown. What I mean is that the reason is stored in the sql state and the sql code variables. As far as I know, this sql code may be platform dependent which makes the whole mechanism somehow hard to use.
    I simply miss sublasses of the SQLException like - DuplicateEntrySQLException, ForeignKeyConstraintFailureSQLException, ...
    - I think this approach would be far too way natural and obvious.
    My question is: does anybody know about a package or something like that which would implement a kind of "re-thrower" class which would consume the SQLException, inspect it and based on the exception's state it would throw a nice exception in the sense described above?
    Thank you!
    Cheers,
    Miro

    Why not check the data beforehand only?
    Normally I have a validate method in which I run a check on the data submitted by the user. there I see if the Data is violating any of the foriegn key, unique constraints or length of the field.
    I don't insert the data first into the DB without any validation.
    If you don't do this, then there is no way for you to know whether the problem occurred because of the data provided by the user or because the DB is having system level or n/w level problem.
    On the fly analysis is not possible because a DB (ex. oracle, sql server) each is capable of throwing ten thousand kind of errors. you really can't translate it by a package.
    So the best way to handle your situation is that validate the data first. If there is a problem report it to the user. If validation suceeds then go ahead with the insert, update command.
    If the user still gets an SQLException then it assume a system level error and display message like "Foo Portal is temporarily unavailable. Kindly call 4343343 in case of emergency"
    Test your system pretty well specially the validation logic so that you don't display the sys unavailable message when the DB is available but the data has errors.
    hope this helps.

    Abhishek.

  • WHAT IS ERROR HANDLING OPTIONS IN dtp? FOR DSO

    hi friends,
    what is use for every option error handling in dtp .
    1) deactivated
    2)no update , not reporting
    3)valid records update, no reporting(request red)
    4)valid records update,  reporting (request green).
    what is individual effect for my DSO, ple explain me acenerio,
    for my DSO what can i select, why?
    regards
    suneel.

    Check this help - self explanatory - trying checking F1 thats very informative and self explantory most of the times
    Switched off
    If an error occurs, the error is reported as a package error in the DTP monitor. The error is not assigned to the data record. The cross-reference tables for determining the data record numbers are not built; this results in faster processing.
    The incorrect records are not written to the error stack since the request is terminated and has to be updated again in its entirety.
    No update, no reporting (default)
    If errors occur, the system terminates the update of the entire data package. The request is not released for reporting. The incorrect record is highlighted so that the error can be assigned to the data record.
    The incorrect records are not written to the error stack since the request is terminated and has to be updated again in its entirety.
    Update valid records, no reporting (request red)
    This option allows you to update valid data. This data is only released for reporting after the administrator checks the incorrect records that are not updated and manually releases the request (by a QM action, that is, setting the overall status on the Status tab page in the monitor).
    The incorrect records are written to a separate error stack in which the records are edited and can be updated manually using an error DTP.
    Update valid records, reporting possible
    Valid records can be reported immediately. Automatic follow-up actions, such as adjusting the aggregates, are also carried out.
    The incorrect records are written to a separate error stack in which the records are edited and can be updated manually using an error DTP.

  • Error Handling in table control for line item.

    Hi,
    Please how to do error handling in table control for line item in bdc,i have used format_message for header but i don't no fill decamps internal tabled and  how to do background processing in call transaction.
    Thanks

    Background processing is not possible using call transaction method.
    You can create an executable program which can have CALL TRANSACTION BDC code. And this can be run in background.
    What do you exactly mean by Error handling for Items in table control. Can you give some more details.

  • OSB 10gR3 Error handling and reporting action approach

    My use case:
    Simple Proxy service routes to an external web service created as Business service in OSB
    Whenever there is transport error/soap fault from the external web service, that error needs to be reported along with the original request received by the proxy service.
    What I have tried so far?
    Created a error handler/stage in the route node of my proxy service. Within that stage, added a report action to report $body which contains the error received from the external service. I created a report index key/value to report for this request, I used a specific element in the body of the original request sent to the proxy service.
    Within the route error handling stage, I realized that $body which had my original request to the proxy service lost its content and replaced by the fault from external WS. So I made a copy of $body in my request pipeline and tried to use an element from that copy to index my failed request. But the copied variable always seem to be empty within the error handling stage.
    So, my questions to the experts,
    1)What variables are visible within the error handling stage/scope?
    2)What is the best way(less overhead) to preserve my original request as $body context variable is already changed with fault by the time error handler is invoked? Remember I wanted to report the original request only incase of error, for success cases I don't care/I don't want to un-necessarily add an overhead of copying to a vairbale.
    3)Is there another proper way to simply report the original request received by proxy and fault received from external service for a given key in the request, say orderId
    Sample proxy request:
    <MyData>
    <OrderId>123</OrderId>
    </MyData>

    1)What variables are visible within the error handling stage/scope? $fault - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13159_01/osb/docs10gr3/userguide/context.html#wp1051816
    $body - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13159_01/osb/docs10gr3/userguide/context.html#wp1103311
    2)What is the best way(less overhead) to preserve my original request as $body context variable is already changed with fault by the time error handler is invoked? Remember I wanted to report the original request only incase of error, for success cases I don't care/I don't want to un-necessarily add an overhead of copying to a variable.Can you print $body and $fault variables in your error handler?. Are they different ? What I'm suspecting is the back-end webservice is faulting (returning soap-fault and http response =5xx). There is no other way I can think of than copying the contents of $body to a separate variable.
    Thanks

  • 'Structured' error handling and reentrancy

    The parentheses in the subject are due to the fact that I'm not using the Structured Error Handler reference library, but have rolled my own to do something similar but in the manner I want it to. I don't actually use the SEH (haven't even got it installed at the moment on this PC) so am not sure exactly how it works under the hood.
    I have a reasonably large application with a number of distinct parallel modules (GUI, state module, communication, motion control). The final parallel module is an error handling module. This consists of two queues - one for incoming errors, and one for outgoing actions. Errors are dequeued and their codes checked for their category (critical, warning, ignore or unclassified, for instance) and the appropriate category is returned to a local error handler via the action queue. When an error is passed to a local error handler VI, it enqueues the error to the main handler and waits for a response to that particular error.
    This all works nicely, in much the same way the SEH would do. However, with either the SEH or my local error handler method, I find myself wondering how often to place these down and the consequences of doing so. If they're non-reentrant, I imagine I may end up with lots of parallel processes sitting patiently to access the VI as it's blocked by another, causing jitter. If I go pre-allocated clone, I could potentially have many many callers using this function, which strikes me as a bit of a waste of resources. My gut feel is to go with shared-allocation clones, as the vast majority of the time it'll be no error passed through an empty case, and not to place them in absolutely every subVI - just perhaps after a state executes in the state handler, in all the parallel loops of the submodules etc.
    Just wondering what anyone else does with their error handling solution, and whether my thoughts make sense.
    CLD

    Having chatted to my friendly neighbourhood Spiderman Architect, he suggested I should probably just stop being a wimp and just use pre-allocated clones to avoid the jitter and to stop worrying about the resource hit, as you suggest
    I'll use the same code on both PC host and RT host, hence the jitter concerns on the RT.
    Thanks for the thoughts!

  • Asynchronous Error Handling in Flex

    Hi,
    When going through the Error Handling in Flex from Adobe site, i got confusion in understanding Asynchronous Way of
    Error Handling Mechanish in FLEX .
    Here the authro Mentiones an example related to File Uploading that is for FileReference class .
    I am not quite familiar with File Uploading , so i could not able to gran this concept .
    Please let me know what is this Asynchrnous Way of Error Handling in FLEX , because as far is synchronous is concerned it is straight Forward Mechanism .
    Please help me in understanding this Concept.

    Hi,
    This type of error handling means that you will listen for events on the calling instance such as a file reference object. You will use the method addEventListener() and listen for events such as IO_ERROR or whatever event the instance will dispatch on error.
    See the documentation for specific error events of each class that acts as a service.
    The async part means that the error if thrown will happen after the line and method executes where you called your service.

  • About Error Handling.

    Hi,
            Can any body give the brief idea of error handling.And what the option containing in the error handling tabs like
    1. NO Update , No Reporting.
    2. Update Valid Records only ,Reporting not possible(Request red).
    3. Update Valid Records only ,Reporting  possible(Request green).
              Is these options works above the error tolerance limit or below the error tolerance limit.
          like        Error Tolerance Limit   =   1000.
    How can i Test it  practically in Navigation.Plz send the detailed information about this.
    Thanks in Advance,
    D.Malla Reddy.

    Hi,
         1 Valid Records Update, No Reporting (Request Red): When you select this option, you tell the system to isolate erroneous records in a data packet from the data load and to load the valid records into the data target. The data upload request remains in red status in the data target and is unavailable for reporting. With this option, the data administrator can check the error records and then manually turn the uploaded request to green, making the data available for reporting.
    u2022     2 Valid Records Update, Reporting Possible (Request Green): When you select this option, you tell ETL to make the valid data available immediately for reporting in the data target.
    u2022     No Update, No Reporting: When you select this option, you tell the system to suspend data processing to the data targets if it encounters an erroneous record, preventing further data from loading into the data target. The system keeps scanning the remaining data packages for erroneous records.
    Another important aspect of error handling is the process to deal with the erroneous records. In SAP NetWeaver BI 7.0, the error handling process identifies the erroneous record from the original data upload request and isolates it by storing the records in a separate container called the error stack. After you correct or modify the erroneous records, you can then load them to the original intended data target by using a special DTP called the error DTP. This helps to ensure data consistency.
    you can check the data packets data at monitor

  • What is meant by estimated costs and estimated rows in SQL explain (ST05)?

    Hi
    I was just wondering if someone could explain/clarify exactly what is meant by estimated costs and estimated rows in the 'explain' / execution path functionality of ST05.
    For example, we could see a SQL statement was very inefficient accessing a table:
    Estimated Costs = 6.006.615 , Estimated #Rows = 0
    Does this literally mean that for 6 million costs / reads / effort, 0 results were returned??
    Is this a ratio of efficiency?
    We built an appropriate index and now we have:
    Estimated Costs = 2 , Estimated #Rows = 1
    A lot better! The job was taking 40+ hours and being cancelled; now it takes 5 minutes. So a 3 million times improvement sounds realistic...
    However, we had another instance where the explain showed:
    ( Estim. Costs = 195.077 , Estim. #Rows = 538.660 )
    and we built an index, and now the explain is:
    ( Estimated Costs = 41.867 , Estimated #Rows = 538.660 )
    What exactly does this mean - as the costs has been reduced, but the rows is the same?
    Thanks
    Ross

    Hi Ross,
    >I was just wondering if someone could explain/clarify exactly what is meant by estimated costs and estimated rows in the >'explain' / execution path functionality of ST05
    Take a look at note 766349, point 20.
    >An EXPLAIN displays "Estimated Costs" and "Estimated Rows", which
    >are simply the CBO's calculation results (refer to Note 7550631).
    >Since these results are based upon a number of assumptions (column

    >useful only within a margin for error. High "Estimated Costs" and

    >GETs, DISK READs, or processed rows.
    So the costs and rows are values conjured up by the cost optimizer when calculating the access path that is most likely to be efficient. THEY ARE ESTIMATES!!!
    >Does this literally mean that for 6 million costs / reads / effort, 0 results were returned??
    As per the above, no. The costs and rows are estimated before the rows are fetched so there are no actual results yet.
    >What exactly does this mean - as the costs has been reduced, but the rows is the same?
    An efficient database access is exactly that; reads only the blocks that contain the rows it needs and nothing else. If the access is inefficient it will spend time accessing blocks that contain no data that is eventually contained in the result set.
    This question would be better placed in the Oracle forum...

  • Err 62007: SQL Error: 99999 ORA-24338: Statement Handle not Executed

    Hi,
    I am facing a problem while adding a new parameter n my JSP Report JDBC query based on a ref-cursor from a stored procedure define in a package in database.
    No problem at database level, I have added the new parameter in package specification and Package body for that procedure and compile my package, it complies without any error and warning.
    but when I open the report and add parameter in the report JDBC query window, then it is generating a error message,
    "Err 62007: SQL Error: 99999 ORA-24338: Statement Handle not Executed "
    and I am unable to add the new parameter in report.
    e.g.
    Actual which was working is:
    My-package.My-procedure(:P1,:P2,:P3 ,:P4,:P5,:P6,:P7)
    I want to do this:
    My-package.My-procedure(:P1,:P2,:P3 ,:P4,:P5,:P6,:P7,:P8)
    but unable to do due to this error message:

    and compile my package, it complies without any error and warning.That doesn't mean anything in this case. You are getting a runtime error, not a compilation error. The error is coming when you execute your procedure.
    Did you test your modified procedure in sqlplus or SQL Developer?

  • Error Handling in the SQL Trigger 2008 R2

    Hi ,
    I need some guidance in setting up error handling process in the table  trigger. I have created a trigger on source database table and it load data to target table whenever there are any changes in last update date of source database ( given code below).

  • . What is the error handling mechanism available in ODI ?

    What is the error handling mechanism available in ODI ?

    We have something called CKM in ODI. It provides option of Static control and Flow control.
    What you need to do is provide the proper constrains / validation rules on the source and target models. When you execute the interface , if any of the rule is violated , those rows goes to E$_ tables also called Error tables.
    Static control example :
    Before executing the interface , you can check the data health of your source model.
    Flow Control example :
    Thus for example you have 100 rows , out of which 10 rows violates the rule , then 90 rows will go to target table and 10 will go to error table. If you correct the values or modify the constraint and re execute the interface , those 10 rows will also go to target.
    Other than that if you mean Error handling in the package or load plan , you can use OK and KO appropriately and route the flow as per your requirement. This is all custom approach , which will vary from design to design.
