I am trying to insert into an xmltype something, I read the oracle docs and it says I should use updateXML or insertChildXML, but the compler says, updateXML must be declared
searched everywhere but i cant find any reference to missing functions
I am using the 11g, as a must, this is the start of a very long assignment and i can't do much without the functions to modify xmltype
Help, how do I solve that compiler error?

I wrote this code and it works ok:
declare
cursor c_emp is
select last_name, first_name from employees;
type c_list is table of employees.last_name%type index by binary_integer;
type c_list2 is table of employees.first_name%type index by binary_integer;
last_list c_list;
first_list c_list2;
counter integer := 0;
begin
for i in c_emp loop
counter := counter + 1;
last_list(counter) := i.last_name;
first_list(counter) := i.first_name;
dbms_output.put_line('Employee(' || counter || '): ' || last_list(counter) || ' ' || first_list(counter));
end loop;
end;
/
This time I am trying to make procedure with parameters that I can insert the table name and column into the cursor. And I have tried with this :
create or replace procedure show_data(tab_name in varchar2, data_list in varchar2)
is
str varchar2(100);
str2 varchar2(100);
column_name varchar2(100);
begin
str := 'select ' || data_list || ' from ' || tab_name;
for vRec in str loop
dbms_output.put_line(str);
end loop;
end;
/
It gave a error which the str is not a cursor. I am not sure that if cursor can be done in this way, but from the error it seems it can't.
Which part of my code is wrong, or because I didn't declare my cursor? But if i declare my cursor, I can't get the parameter by using dynamic sql way.
The below should produce the same result as your original PL/SQL block. Note that the table_name can be dynamic and so can the data_list but you need to know the column names in the data_list to be able to fetch from the cursor and then print them.
create or replace procedure show_data(tab_name in varchar2
, data_list in varchar2)
is
str varchar2(100);
str2 varchar2(100);
column_name varchar2(100);
TYPE cursor_ref IS REF CURSOR;
vRec_cursor cursor_ref;
counter integer = 0;
last_name employee.last_name%TYPE;
first_name employee.first_name%TYPE;
begin
str := 'select ' || data_list || ' from ' || tab_name;
open vRec_cursor for str;
loop
FETCH vRec_cursor INTO last_name, first_name;
EXIT WHEN vRec_cursor%NOTFOUND;
dbms_output.put_line('Employee(' || counter || '): ' || last_name || ' ' || first_name;
counter = counter + 1;
end loop;
end;

NOTE: Haven't run the above code yet
I tried the below code and wanted to see output of the assigned record
but it gives nothing.
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE t_obj as object(
book_name varchar2(20),
ISBN number,
author varchar2(20)
);
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE t_table as table of t_obj;
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION fun_ret_tab
RETURN t_table
IS
vl_table t_table := t_table ();
BEGIN
FOR j IN 1 .. vl_table.COUNT
LOOP
vl_table.EXTEND;
vl_table (vl_table.LAST) :=
t_obj ('oracle programming', 2132, 'steven feurestein');
END LOOP;
return vl_table;
END;
As vl_table.COUNT is 0, try the following:
create or replace FUNCTION fun_ret_tab
RETURN t_table
IS
vl_table t_table := t_table ();
BEGIN
-- Start Loop at 0
FOR j IN 0 .. vl_table.COUNT
LOOP
vl_table.EXTEND;
vl_table (vl_table.LAST) :=
t_obj ('oracle programming', 2132, 'steven feurestein');
END LOOP;
return vl_table;
END;
I have a function which concatinates the value for a cursor. Its now only concatinates 4 columns and that column name should be hardcoded. Is there a way to have a generic solution for this, such that if i pass a cursor it will automatically concatinate data regardless of column name and number of columns in 11g.
FUNCTION generateData(p_dataCursor IN SYS_REFCURSOR)
RETURN VARCHAR2 AS
-- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
crlf VARCHAR2(2) := chr(13)||chr(10);
lv_message VARCHAR2(32000);
BEGIN
FOR rec IN p_dataCursor
LOOP
lv_message := lv_message || rec.a||','||rec.b||','||rec.c||','||rec.d || crlf;
END LOOP;
RETURN lv_message;
END;
Since 11g Oracle built-in package DBMS_SQL provides function TO_CURSOR_NUMBER - "This function takes an OPENed strongly or weakly-typed ref cursor and transforms it into a DBMS_SQL cursor number."
Example code:
DECLARE
l_cursor SYS_REFCURSOR;
FUNCTION generateData(p_dataCursor IN SYS_REFCURSOR)
RETURN VARCHAR2 AS
curs SYS_REFCURSOR := p_dataCursor;
l_cursorid NUMBER;
l_column_count INTEGER;
l_describe_table DBMS_SQL.DESC_TAB;
l_numvar NUMBER;
l_ignore INTEGER;
l_value VARCHAR2(2000);
l_coma VARCHAR2(10);
crlf VARCHAR2(2) := chr(13)||chr(10);
lv_message VARCHAR2(32000);
BEGIN
l_cursorid := dbms_sql.to_cursor_number( curs );
dbms_sql.describe_columns( l_cursorid, l_column_count, l_describe_table );
FOR i IN 1..l_column_count LOOP
dbms_sql.define_column(l_cursorid, i, l_value, 2000);
END LOOP;
LOOP
IF DBMS_SQL.FETCH_ROWS(l_cursorid)>0 THEN
l_coma := '';
FOR i IN 1..l_column_count LOOP
dbms_sql.column_value(l_cursorid, i, l_value);
lv_message := lv_message || l_coma || l_value;
l_coma := ',';
END LOOP;
lv_message := lv_message || crlf;
ELSE
EXIT;
END IF;
END LOOP;
dbms_sql.close_cursor( l_cursorid );
RETURN lv_message;
END;
BEGIN
open l_cursor FOR 'SELECT 1 as A, 2 AS B, 3 AS C, 4 AS D FROM DUAL UNION ALL SELECT 1 as A, 2 AS B, 3 AS C, 4 AS D FROM DUAL';
dbms_Output.put_Line(generateData(l_cursor));
END;

Ok, I have a complex recursion problem. I want to get a dependecy installation sequence of all of my objcts (all_objects table) in my Oracle 11g database.
First I have created a view holding all dependencies
create or replace
view REALLY_ALL_DEPENDENCIES as
select *
from ALL_DEPENDENCIES
union
select owner, index_name, 'INDEX', table_owner, table_name, table_type, null, null
from all_indexes
union
select p.owner, p.table_name, 'TABLE', f.owner, f.table_name, 'TABLE', null, null
from all_constraints p
join all_constraints f
on F.R_CONSTRAINT_NAME = P.CONSTRAINT_NAME
and F.CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'R'
and p.constraint_type='P'
;
/
EDIT
I have tried do concate all dependencies by using this function:
create
or replace
function dependency(
i_name varchar2
,i_type varchar2
,i_owner varchar2
,i_level number := 0
,i_token clob := ' ') return clob
is
l_token clob := i_token;
l_exist number := 0;
begin
select count(*) into l_exist
from all_objects
where object_name = i_name
and object_type = i_type
and owner = i_owner;
if l_exist > 0 then
l_token := l_token || ';' || i_level || ';' ||
i_name || ':' || i_type || ':' || i_owner;
else
-- if not exist function recursion is finished
return l_token;
end if;
for tupl in (
select distinct
referenced_name
,referenced_type
,referenced_owner
from REALLY_ALL_DEPENDENCIES
where name = i_name
and type = i_type
and owner = i_owner
)
loop
-- if cyclic dependency stop and shout!
if i_token like '%' || tupl.referenced_name || ':' || tupl.referenced_type || ':' || tupl.referenced_owner || '%' then
select count(*) into l_exist
from REALLY_ALL_DEPENDENCIES
where name = tupl.referenced_name
and type = tupl.referenced_type
and owner = tupl.referenced_owner;
if l_exist > 0 then
return '!!!CYCLIC!!! (' || i_level || ';' || tupl.referenced_name || ':' || tupl.referenced_type || ':' || tupl.referenced_owner || '):' || l_token;
end if;
end if;
-- go into recursion
l_token := dependency(
tupl.referenced_name
,tupl.referenced_type
,i_owner /* I just want my own sources */
,i_level +1
,l_token);
end loop;
-- no cyclic condition and loop is finished
return l_token;
end;
/
And I can query through
select
object_name
,object_type
,owner
,to_char(dependency(object_name, object_type, owner)) as dependecy
from all_objects
where owner = 'SYSTEM'
;
Ok, maybe it is something like "cheating" but you can not do cyclic dependencies at creation time. So at least as a human beeing I am only able to create one object after another :-) And this sequence should be "reverse engineer able".
Now I am more interested in a solution than before ;-) And it is still about the tricky part ... "How can I select all soures from a schema orderd by its installation sequence (dependent objects list prior the using object)"?
It is just some kind of sorting problem, insn't it?
Usually you "cheat" by creating the objects in a particular order. For example, you might make sequences first (they have zero dependencies). Then you might do tables. After that, package specs, then package bodies, and so on.
Keep in mind that it is possible to have cyclic dependencies between packages, so there are cases where it will be impossible to satisfy all dependencies at creation anyway.
What's the business case here? Is there a real "problem" or just an exercise?
EDIT
The export tool we use exports objects in the following order:
Database Links
Sequences
Types
Tables
Views
Primary Keys
Indexes
Foreign Keys
Constraints
Triggers
Materialized Views
Materialized View Logs
Package Specs
Package Bodies
Procedures
Functions
At the end, we run the dbms_utility.compile_schema procedure to make sure everything is valid and no dependencies are missed. If you use other object types than these, I'm not sure where they'd go in this sequence.
Ok, I had some time to look at the job again and I want to share the results. Maybe anotherone comes across this thread searching for a solution. First of all I did the SQLs as SYS but I think you can do it in every schema using public synonyms.
The Procedure "exec obj_install_seq.make_install('SCOTT');" makes a clob containing a sql+ compatible sql file, assuming your sources are called "object_name.object_type.sql". Just spool it out.
