What is ORACLE Procedure Builder

Hi,
What is "Oracle Procudeure Builder" and where can I download it?
Thanks,
Alan

That should be What was "Oracle Procudeure Builder". It was an IDE that was part of the Developer2000 toolset, alongside Forms 4.5 and Reports 2.5, for devloping PL/SQL program units. At some point (Forms 6i ????) it got subsumed into the Oracle Forms IDE. I don't know how much of its functionality still exists. It's certainly not available as a standalone product.
If you don't have a 9iDS Licence you won;'t be able to Forms. People have posted alternative tools in SQL*PLUS Alternative.
Cheers, APC

Oracle Pocedure Builder

I have been trying to find a download for Oracle Procedure builder. I could'nt find it??
Suggest please...

You can use the "database objects" node in either forms or reports builders. This gives the same functionality as procedure builder, and you do not need to be actually building any forms or reports.

What would you recommend me to do in Oracle Form Builder as a beginnner?

I am a beginner in Oracle Form Builder and can anyone recommend a list of tasks/assignments I could try as I barely any projects at work currently ?
I have been able to query items in a database(table) by creating a control/dummy block. What list of tasks would you suggest me to do next ? Any complex type of forms I could try ?
Thanks.

If you have created a dummy/control block, I would recommend that you create a new block based on a database table. Use the block wizard.
Then a further block based on a table that is a "child" or "detail" table for the one you just created. use the block wizard.
Then create a list of values (using the LOV Wizard) to populate one or more of the fields in your block - preferably using a SQL statement to get the contents of the LOV.
You could then try creating a calculated item to add up values in one of your blocks.
Then try creating a "when validate item" trigger on one of your items to try to enforce some validation rules. Display any error messages using an Alerti (don't bother with the "message" function in Forms - it's rubbish).
That should be enough to be going on with.
Good luck.

Query builder, procedural builder - Oracle 8.17

I'm running Oracle 8.17 and I can't find query builder, procedural builder, report builder form builder and other builders. Where can I get these? I tried the universal installer and there are no options to install them.

Hi Fraser,
Thank you for responding.
I think I fixed that problem,actually there was a spelling
mistake in one of the parameter files.
But now I get another error message, says:
"ORA: 02068: following severe error from MSOLEDB
ORA: 28511: lost RPC connection to heterogenous
remote agent using
SID = (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)
(HOST=LOCAL_HOST)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=
(SERVICE_NAME=<SERVICE_NAME>)))
Do I have to configure the SQL Server network utilities?
I pinged both the servers ,they talk to each other.
But when I use tnsping ,the client machine (i.e.,the SQL Server
machine)talks to server(Oracle machine) but the server doesn't
talk to the client.
I am definitely not doing something right.

Is it allowed to use parts of an existing record for building a new song in Garageband, e.g. the rhythm part of that record? Is this what people call ripping or trimming? And if it is allowed, what is the procedure then?

Is it allowed to use parts of an existing record for building a new song in Garageband - e.g. the rhythm part of that record? Is this what people call ripping or trimming? And if it is allowed, what is the procedure then? Are there special programs for it?

unless you pay royalties to the copyright owner of that song, it's illegal to use someone else's recordings to build your own (which software you use doesn't enter the equation):

Procedure Builder does not come with Oracle 9iDS r2 (Complete)?

Hi All
I have enjoyed using Procedure Builder - but did not see opportunity to install with the Developer Suite.
Does anyone know where I could get PB? I am not interested in using the version that comes with Forms 6i...
Thank you!

Procedure Builder is no longer a stand alone product.
You can still edit and debug PL/SQL procedures from inside Oracle9i Forms.
You might also want to take a look at the PL/SQL development capabilities of Oracle9i JDeveloper.
It gives you the ability to debug PL/SQL stored procedures and it also has a helpful code insight when you write PL/SQL code in it.
Check out the Database Development viewlets at http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev/viewlets/viewlet.html

Procedure Builder 9i developer suite

I have done a full install on my Windows 2000 machine, but can't find Procedure builder installed (or an option to install it). Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
thanks, robin

Nothing is wrong, it is simply not there. Check out the obsolesence paper on OTN.
You can still debug and create stored procedure from within Oracle Forms.

Procedure builder for 8i Personal

Hi
Had my 1070 training (PL/SQL) and want to prepare for exam.
I downloaded (and installed) the 8i personal edition. Now there's no procedure builder included in this package, only SQL*Plus.
Found out that ProcBuilder is included in the Developer package, so I downloaded this also.
8i Personals Universal Installer is V 1.6.0.9.0. When You try to install additional Products with it, it wants You to search for "products.jar", which is nowhere to find in the developer temporary installation directory (created from the zip).
So I ran setup from there (developer), and installed Procedure Builder only. I had to make another Oracle home, as he didn't let me install into d:\ora\ora81, so I made a d:\ora\orant. (A bunch of other stuff was installed also). Now I can start Procedure builder, but he doesn't connect (even when I type in exactly the same as in the SQL*Plus in my ora81 startgroup).
Error: PDE-POC011 ORA -12154 Servicename could not be resolved (Additional error depoc4).
What did I do wrong? (I had no dba training, so actually I'm in a blind flight, not knowing what actually I'm doing!)
All I want is the environment as in the training room, where I can run SQL*Plus and procedure builder to train and learn what they told me there. I spent several days now, don't ask me for my phonecosts for downloading several houndred megs, as the CD I got in the training didn't work at all, and I had to remove everything several times manually (including registry) No idea what all I missed to remove.
Any help possible with this sparse description?
Thank's in advance
Martin

I already have Oracle 8.0 Personal Edition, and I can start that database without any
password. But If I want to run SQL*Plus, then
I use SCOTT/TIGER as username/password and that works fine. But with this newer version
(Oracle 8i Personal Edition), I am having problem just starting the database.

Procedure Builder in 9iDS

Hi, I am looking for procedure builder in the Oracle 9i DS. Is there such a product? Has it been discontinued?
Thank you, -Cecil

Procedure Builder is no longer shipped as a stand alone product in Oracle9i Developer Suite.
What do you want to do with it? If you are looking for a PL/SQL development/debugging environment you can use Forms or even JDeveloper -
See : http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev/htdocs/database/db_overview.html

Procedure Builder - where to find

I can not find Procedure Builder. I have installed Oracle 9i (9.0.1.1.1) and Oracle 9iDS. Earlier on, proc builder used to be a part of application development where forms builder, schema builder, procedure builder, reports builder, etc., all were clubbed together in one location. I have looked at the bin subfolder of the client machine. I just can not find it.... Will somebody please help.
Thanks

Can't help you there, I never used Procedure Builder to debug. I've always done it the old fashioned way, with dbms_output and sqlplus. I only use PB to fix syntax errors and find line numbers...
I noticed that Forms 9i has a "Debug" menu containing several tools and a console. Maybe that's what you're looking for....

FORMS_DDL('SQL_STAT');
but i wanna to use the procedure builder

Hi,
You can very well use DBMS_SQL Package supplied by Oracle for doing this.
Search for DBMS_SQL in OTN. You will get all info regarding this.

New to oracle report builder

Dear all;
Please pardon me. I am new to oracle report builder and I am trying to accomplish the following. First and foremost please find my pl/sql queries below. Kindly note, all the queries have been tested and I just need to be able to input those queries into the report builder. Thank you.
create or replace package test1 is
type r_cursor is ref cursor;
function report(company_name in varchar2) return r_cursor;
end test1;
create or replace package body test1 is
function report(company_name in varchar2) return r_cursor as
my_r_cursor r_cursor;
begin
if(company_name = 'ALL COMPANIES') THEN
open my_r_cursor for
select t.t_id, t.t_description from t1 t;
return my_r_cursor;
elsif(company_name != 'ALL COMPANIES') THEN
open my_r_cursor for
select t.t_id, t.t_description from t1 t
where t.t_id = company_name;
return my_r_cursor;
end if;
end;
end test1;
create table t1
t_id varchar2(200) not null,
t_description varchar2(250),
primary key(t_id)
insert into t1
(t_id, t_description)
values
('CITI', 'PROFIT: 2.2Billion');
insert into t1
(t_id, t_description)
values
('GE', 'PROFIT: 1Billion');
insert into t1
(t_id, t_description)
values
('JPMORGAN','PROFIT: 0');Now, I am trying to create a simple report in oracle report builder. The interface for generating for this report is basically, there is a dropdownlist where by the user picks a company name from the dropdownlist and clicks on the go button, this should then generate a report with the above query shown in the package. How can this be achieved? All help will greatly be appreciated.

Hi,
first of all you need strong typed ref cursor, oracle reports need to detect witch are the columns returned by your cursor.
so first you create your package
create or replace package test1
as
TYPE t_record IS RECORD ( company_number PLS_INTEGER--TABLE_NAME.COLUMN_NAME%TYPE
, company_desc VARCHAR2(150)--TABLE_NAME.COLUMN_NAME%TYPE
TYPE T_REF_CURSOR IS REF CURSOR RETURN t_record;
procedure report(company_name in varchar2 ,cur_out OUT t_ref_cursor) ;
end test1;
show errors
create or replace package body test1
is
procedure report(company_name in varchar2 ,cur_out OUT t_ref_cursor)
is
my_r_cursor T_REF_CURSOR;
begin
if(company_name = '1')
THEN
open my_r_cursor for
select 1 as t_id, 'description' ast_description from dual
else
open my_r_cursor for
select 2 as t_id, 'description2' as t_description from dual
end if;
end;
end test1;
show errors
then, in your report you create a ref cursor query :
function QR_1RefCurDS
return test1.t_ref_cursor
is
C_return test1.t_ref_cursor;
begin
test1.report(1,C_return);
RETURN(C_return) ;
end;
hope this helps you !

Interfacing of oracle report builder and java

hi all,
I have build a report using Oracle Report Builder 10g.Now i want to make use of this report in displaying the data in IE using core java.
This is the first time i am using the Oracle Report Builder .
Can anyone tell me how to proceed in right direction?Do i need to have some specific Jar,Environment to accomplish this task?
Thanks in advance

I'm not sure what version of the product you're using, but since you're just installing it may well be the base version (6.0.8.8.3).
Similar issues were addressed in a patch release (6.0.8.12), which was related to issues with some types of keyboard. You may want to upgrade to the latest patch release and retry.

Using CLOBs in oracle Report Builder

I want to select all the data in a CLOB column using SQL Navigator by just doing
select entry_note
from chartentries;
just as you say in your example by it just gives me back a result of (ORACLOB).
If I do
select to_char(entry_note)
from chartentries;
I get this error.
If I do
select dbms_lob.substr(entry_note,4000,1)
from chartentries
I get this (there’s more up to 32000 characters in a clob) and these weird squares which I think are CR (carriage returns) or LF (line feeds). I don’t want to see those characters and I would like to retrieve the entire CLOB in one swoop without doing data manipulations of substringing.
Using the same data in Oracle Report Builder, I want to select all the data in a CLOB column into a field in a Paper report layout but I keep getting errors, ora-6502, and I've found out that I am restricted to 4000 characters and in Report 9i it looks like the largest field you can have is 4000 characters. My CLOB information can be up to 32000 characters long or longer and I do not want to substring out 4000 characters at a time into separate fields. In Crystal reports there is no problem just selecting the clob in a simple query and it is there in one shot. I would have thought by now that Oracle would have changed its development tools to be able to handle Clobs simply without any manipulation. Does anyone know how to do this in Report builder? I just have a simple query:
select entry_datetime,
to_char(replace((entry_note),chr(13))) as entry_note
from chartentries
where patient_id = 49741
Another thing I want to do, is call this Oracle report from a PL/SQL block passing several parameters to the report and also call a Crystal report from a PL/SQL block passing several parameters to the report. Does anyone know what the commands are?

What I had to do is create a query using query builder. This works fine; it's when trying to add the column to an existing query is where the data inconstancy error occurs. One thing you have to keep in mind is it will only work using the query builder in conjunction with the report wizard; I am not sure why. To incorporate the comments into an existing frame you will have to cut the frame created by the wizards and copy it into the existing frame. Otherwise the column name will not show in the source list of the property Inspector.
Good Luck
