Hi all,
My Database Version: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.1.0.2.0.
CREATE table test (Name varchar2(3), Id number);
insert into test values ('abc', 61);
insert into test values ('def', 46);
select table_name,
column_name,
'abc' search_string,
result
from cols,xmltable(('ora:view("'||table_name||'")/ROW/'||column_name||'[ora:contains(text(),"%'|| 'abc' || '%") > 0]')
columns result varchar2(10) path '.'
where table_name in ('TEST');
and i get: ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended it points over '*xmltable*'

Answer 1

ok, its possible to get output from a xml like this.
i need output like this,
customerid CustomerName Country
1 xxxx 4
2 yyyy 5
xml:
<Customer>
<CustomerInformation>
          <Customerid>1</Customerid>
          <CustomerName>xxxx</CustomerName>
          <Country>4</Country>
     </CustomerInformation>
<CustomerInformation>
          <Customerid>2</Customerid>
          <CustomerName>yyyy</CustomerName>
          <Country>5</Country>
     </CustomerInformation>
</Customer>
This xml is input to my stored procedure, i need to insert the xml tag values into customner_table.
For this i insert the xml inro a xml_document_table having a xmltype column.
after , by using the below mentioned query to select xml_tag values from that column.
when i execute this query
INSERT into customer_table(customer_id)
SELECT X.XML_DOCUMENT.extract('/Customer/commodityInfo/CustomerInformation/Customerid/text()').getStringVal() "Customerid" from XML_DOCUMENT_TABLE X;
i got output in a single row.
customerid_
1 <next line> 2
But i need output like this,
Customerid_
1
2
