Writing CLOB data using UTL_FILE to several files by settingmaxrows in loop

Hey Gurus,
I have a procedure that creates a CLOB document (in the form of a table in oracle 9i). I need to now write this large CLOB data (with some 270,000 rows) into several files, setting the row max at 1000. So essentially ther would be some sort of loop construct and substr process that creates a file after looping through 1000 rows and then continues the count and creates a another file until all 270 xml files are created. Simple enough right...lol? Well I've tried doing this and haven't gotten anywhere. My pl/sql coding skills are too elementary I am guessing. I've only been doing this for about three months and could use the assistance of a more experienced person here.
Here are the particulars...
CLOB doc is a table in my Oracle 9i application named "XML_CLOB"
Directory name to write output to "DIR_PATH"
DIRECTORY PATH is "\app\cdg\cov"
Regards,
Chris

the xmldata itself in the CLOB would look like this for one row.

Thank you very much.
Thing is previously we are using sqlloader and shell script for loading the data.

A couple of things.
This is wrong:
l_dir VARCHAR2 (10) := 'c:/orders';It must be the name of a directory object, created via the "+CREATE DIRECTORY+" command. Dir objects are (database) aliases for physical paths. Like any other db object, it provides a security layer that allows one to control access to it. You do not want any and all db sessions to access the root drive on that server.
Not necessary:
v_array t_array := t_array ();You are calling the constructor to create an empty array. Not needed as the bulk collect does that for you. Simply define the variable - the bulk collect takes the responsibility for initialising and populating it.
Review:
parallel ( qdm 8) Personally I dislike such hints, hints forcing indexes and so on. Reason is that the developer is second guessing the CBO. Yes, you may have the right values for the development db and its data set. It may even work for production for a while. But production is very seldom static. Process loads varies. Data volumes increases. Even the database model changes (e.g. new columns, new indexes, etc). H/w changes (e.g. more CPUs, more memory, etc).
By second guessing the CBO, the developer makes it very hard for the DBA and CBO properly manage performance and scalability on the server.
Also, keep in mind that UTL_FILE (and PL/SQL code) is a serialised process (only exception is specially crafted pipeline table functions). So despite using/requesting 8 parallel query processes (PQ) in the hint, a single PL process has to write that data to file. Be sure that you identify the appropriate bottleneck when dealing with I/O and wanting to use PQ to address it.

after running the procedure, did you verify that the file 'transformation_data.dat' has data? open it, make sure it's correct. maybe it has no data, and that's why the external table doesn't show anything.
also, check the LOG and BAD files after selecting from the external table. maybe they have ERRORS in them (or all the data is going to BAD because you defined something wrong).

How can you SELECT via Database Link CLOB data using Application Express?

Customer Issue:
Developer using Oracle's Application Express 3.1. The Developer is trying to SELECT a CLOB datatype column from a remote (10.2.0.3) database, via a database link on her 10.2.0.4 based client Application. The Developer wants to be able to select CLOB data from the remote database which has limitation that she can't make any changes to the remote database.
Developer's Comments:
I do a select and get the error. Getting error ORA-22992: cannot use LOB locators selected from remote tables. So she feels she can't use dbms_lob.substr in this configuration I can do a "select into" but that is for one value. I am trying to run a select statement for a report that brings back more than one row. I do not have permission to change anything on the remote database. I want to access the remote database and multiple tables.
This is not something I work with, would greatly appreciate help or ideas. Is this a limitation of the 3.1; or does she just not have this set up correctly; or should she be using a Collection (if yes, please share example)
Thanks very much,
Pam

Hello???
Would really appreciate an answer.
Thanks,
Pam

This may not be a perfect solution for you but it worked for my situation.
I wanted to grab some data from Grid Control's MGMT$JOB_STEP_HISTORY table but I couldnt' create an Interactive Report due to the existance of a CLOB column. I cheated this by creating a view on the GC DB, grabbing the first 4000 characters and turning it into a varchar2 column:
create view test_job_step_history as
select job_Name, target_name, status, start_time, end_time, to_char(substr(output,1,4000)) output
from MGMT$JOB_STEP_HISTORY where trunc(end_time) > trunc(sysdate)-90
In an APEX Interactive Report:
select * from test_job_step_history@GCDB
Granted, the output looks aweful right now but I am only looking for a very particular output (failed, denied, ORA-, RMAN-, etc) so the formatting isn't the most important thing to me right now.
If anyone can improve -- and I'm sure you can -- on this I'd love to hear about it.
Thanks,
Rich

Reading CLOB data using jdbc thin driver

Hi,
When I try reading data for a CLOB column using thin jdbc driver, I get the following error message
"Exception: ORA-06550: line 1, column 22:
PLS-00302: component 'GETCHUNKSIZE' must be declared
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored".
This error message is displayed when the call is made to get the character stream from the Clob object.
Do I need to any server side setup before I can access CLOB data from the database?
thanks.
Puru Balakrishnan

I updated to the latest jdbc drivers, 816classes12b.zip, and the problem went away.

Create your JFrames, then use
myFirstFrame.setVisible( true );
// time to launch second
mySecondFrame.setVisible( true );
// time to hide second
mySecondFrame.setVisible( false );The simplest file I/O will work for you. Use a FileOutputStream to write the file. I think three lines of code should do the trick. See the API docs for java.io.

Getting ORA-24801: error when reading a CLOB data using BufferReader

I am getting the "ORA-24801: illegal parameter value in OCI lob function", when reading a CLOB using a BufferedReader, i am using "oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver" for creating a connection pool and using Oracle 9.2.0.7 with Weblogic 8.1 SP 5. My code looks like this,
oracle.sql.CLOB c_lob = null;
c_lob = ( oracle.sql.CLOB)stmt.getClob(7);
BufferedReader in1 = new BufferedReader(c_lob.getCharacterStream());
char buffer[] = new char[1];
int i;
while((i = in1.read(buffer)) != -1)
The error is coming at "in1.read(buffer)".

Hi,
Your buffer size should be the clob size.
char[] buffer = new char[c_lob.getBufferSize()];
Also, set the value for i as -1.
You could see the sample on OTN for help:

Initialize a date using eCATT and a file

We are trying to clear the values in a date field (MBEW-ZKDAT), i.e. we're trying to update the field from some date to the initial value.
We have an eCATT that has been working fine when there is some value in the date field. But when we try to put any other value (00/00/0000, 00000000 or just leave it blank) in the file, we're getting 'Invalid date' error.
I've looked in FAQ, SAP Help, but can't find any useful information on this. Does anyone know what we need to enter in the date field to make it blank (=initialize)?
Thank you.

Unload dynamic data using JDBC into a file

Hi,
I have to download the result of a dynamic SELECT query into a file.
The query will be provided at runtime. So I am unsure of the number of columns and the data types of the columns.
Also I am unable to use io on the returned resultset object.
So basically i have to persist the data from the resultset object into a file.
Any hints
Thanks in advance

Also I am unable to use io on the returned resultset object.What do you mean by this?
See the JDBC tutorial: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jdbc/index.html
and the file I/O tutorial: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/io/index.html

Writing transient data into a spreadsheet file in Windows XP

Hi,
I need to be able to save the data of 13 seperate properties in a spread sheet. I need to capture transient data and store it in a spreadsheet or something for analysis. I want to be able to create a new file everytime I capture the data, name the file, and I want to specify how long it should be capturing the data (maybe a time limit or start and stop buttons).
By the way, I have been trying to learn through examples in my LabVIEW 2009 Student Edition manual and the one example I tried was having problems working with my current laptop, which is running Windows XP. The error message told me that I couldn't write "?" and things like that. I think it is a Windows XP thing. I'm not sure. I can post the message if I need to.
Can someone please help me out? If someone could create an example I could work off of, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!!

Thanks for pointing out those examples. I have looked through someof them, but I am totally lost. For one example, I don't now what do do with my loops. I want the continuous loop to display data but I don't know if I need another loop to stop and start the file writing. I included my VI so you guys can take a look.
If someone could help me a bit more, like modifying my VI and sending it back to me so I can see what I am doing wrong, you guys would be a big help! Thanks again!
