Zipping a file from Oracle Procedure.

Hi EveryBody,
I need to write a Oracle Procdure to zip a file present in UNIX. I am not allowed to use any shell script to do this. Can anyone help me out in this.
Thanks in Advance,
Chandra

Justin, Did you mean UTL_COMPRESS?
For OP,
The following thread has an example on creating a compressed file, but it won't be a valid zip file. Check out solution of michaels.

And metalink note 1100253.1 states that this issue (java.lang.StackOverflowError) might be caused by a too large set of data to be sorted in the layout file. Recommendation is to removed the sort from the layout file and instead sort the data already in the data definition.

How to open .cmdrw file from Oracle Forms 10g

Hi,
We need to call *.cmdrw* file from Oracle forms 10g. Is there any way to call *.cmdrw* file from Oracle forms 10g?
Thanks for the help.
Viishnu Nekkanti

In case you want to open a .cmdrw with its associated application you can use the following procedure:
webutil_host.NonBlocking( 'rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler ' || client_filename );This works for every file where a program has been associated to its file extension. (Adobe Reader for *.pdf, Microsoft Word for *.doc, Microsoft Excel for *.xls and so on)

BPM design for trigger based file from Oracle

Hi
We have one requirement as follows:
1. We need to receive trigger file from Oracle.
2. As soon as we recieved trigger file, it needs to activate all other 10 JDBC adapter channels.
3. once reciever all 10 RFC channels completed, it needs to pass that trigger file.
Please suggest design.
Thanks
Siva

Hi Siva,
1. We need to receive trigger file from Oracle.
define a sender CC (FILE) which polls a directory every N seconds.
The receiver of this message should be your BPM.
2. As soon as we recieved trigger file, it needs to activate all other 10 JDBC adapter channels.
in your BPM, trigger your 10 sender CC (JDBC). See sap help and blog to know how to trigger externally a CC. Easy to do.
3. once reciever all 10 RFC channels completed, it needs to pass that trigger file.
Then always in your BPM, you have to do a correlation on the 10 SQL responses (that's crazy!). Several blogs and threads on this subject.
And after that, in BPM what do you do of these 10 SQL responses (thats' crazy!) ? do you have to merge data ?
Welcome to the birthday of a future monster... for dev and maintenance... Sincerely simplify your flow!
Question: do you really need to have 10 SQL? for your needs, is it not possible to create a stored procedure in database which will do the 10 SQL (with Join tables)... if yes do it, by tis way you will have only one Sender CC (JDBC) to trigger, and no correlation in a BPM. That will greatly simplify your flow.

Mickael

Unzipping downloaded files from Oracle

Which program must be used to unzip the downloaded files from Oracle??
I've run the batch file which creates the zip files, but Winzip doesn't recognize them.
Help Please!!
Thanks,
Rick

Just as a note, (I don't know if it will help you) After executing the batch file (especially for disks 1 & 2) it takes several minutes to complete the creation of the "single disk" zip file. And if you don't let it complete, winzip will not recognize it. The batch file will echo each steps completion, however the first echo takes a while to display, so it's easy to think that nothing is happening. I know I fell for it. So, try executing and then going for some coffee or something.

Reading file from oracle directory at client side

Hi,
I have a SWING app. which connects to an Oracle db.
My goal is to read files from oracle directory with java through JDBC. I export some dumps with datapump and they need to be transferred to a client machine. There is no access to oracle directory at network filesystem level.
Please advice!
TIA, Sandor

An Oracle Directory has an underlying OS directory associated with it, Oracle just overlays it's control structure onto an existing folder in the OS. You can manipulate the files with stored procedures in Oracle or at the OS level from outside of Oracle.
If you manipulate the files from the OS level, outside of Oracle, you may need a refresh of the Oracle Directory structure.

How to download a file from Oracle UCM using OSB

Hi,
How can I download a file from Oracle UCM and save it on a filesystem using OSB 11.1.1.5.
Thanks

UCM supplies webservice interfaces which let you retrieve the filecontent by soap calls from UCM (http://ucmhost/_dav/cs/idcplg for example). (maybe you should enable some settings on ucm to have this webservice interface getting published).
This services for example has 2 operations getFileByID and getFileByName.
So you can just call these services from within OSB.
After that you need to do some tests if you eitherway need to create a file-transport business-service and call this one from your proxy service or create a messageType proxyservice (binary) which calls this file-transport business service to be able to write fo filesystem.
I think for the OSB book i used a jca file adapter generated in Jdeveloper and used that one to write to filesystem.

Extracting a flat file from oracle table

I have moved the knowledge module KIM ISO SQL to FileAppend from the Metadata to my project folder.
But when I create an interface mapping the oracle table and a flat file on a different unix server, in the drop down menu , it shows only KIM SQL TO SQL and KIM Control Append.It does not show up the SQL to FileAppend knowledge module option.
What should I do to extract a flat file from oracle table?
Thanks

Overstock.com

All IKM in the Drop Down Menu are dependent of the target technology.
A question, at this interface, is your target table a file ?

Create XML file from Oracle DB

Hi,
I'm working in a task to create electronic billing for Mexico Rules, to do this; I need to create a XML source that will contain all the information requested from Oracle DB.
For this reason, I'm looking how to create this XML file from Oracle DB.
All this is for the new legislations rules in Mexico to use electronic billing.
Please, if you have any reference about this, let me know.
Thanks and regards.

you may want to check out commands like xmlforest and xmlelement
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/functions221.htm
copied from documentation
Purpose
XMLForest converts each of its argument parameters to XML, and then returns an XML fragment that is the concatenation of these converted arguments.
•If value_expr is a scalar expression, then you can omit the AS clause, and Oracle Database uses the column name as the element name.
•If value_expr is an object type or collection, then the AS clause is mandatory, and Oracle uses the specified c_alias as the enclosing tag. The c_alias can be up to 4000 characters.
•If value_expr is null, then no element is created for that value_expr.
Examples
The following example creates an Emp element for a subset of employees, with nested employee_id, last_name, and salary elements as the contents of Emp:
SELECT XMLELEMENT("Emp",
XMLFOREST(e.employee_id, e.last_name, e.salary))
"Emp Element"
FROM employees e WHERE employee_id = 204;
Emp Element
<Emp>
<EMPLOYEE_ID>204</EMPLOYEE_ID>
<LAST_NAME>Baer</LAST_NAME>
<SALARY>10000</SALARY>
</Emp>

How to get resultset from oracle procedure use ejb3

how to get resultset from oracle procedure use ejb3
i know oracle procedure should like this
Create or replace PROCEDURE resultset_test(
aaa IN NUMBER,
bbb OUT sys_refcursor) ....
but what s the ejb3 scripts looks like? please give me an example or link~
ths

- there are no EJB3 scripts, only compiled application code
- the part of the EJB spec that deals with databases is called the Java Persistence API, but likely you are just looking for the JDBC API.
Now you should know what to Google to get your "example script": "java jdbc oracle procedure"
