Hello all,

I have a procedure which dynamically fetches data and update them in the table using WHERE CURRENT OF clause.

My Code goes here.

First Procedure:
----------------

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE DUMMY(O_ERRMSG OUT VARCHAR2) IS
--DECLARE VARIABLES
BEGIN
      DELETE FROM AA;
      INSERT INTO AA (
                              SELECT
                                      TABLE_NAME,
                                      COLUMN_NAME,
                                      DATA_TYPE,
                                      DATA_LENGTH
                              FROM USER_TAB_COLS
      WHERE COLUMN_NAME IN ('AGE')
      AND DATA_LENGTH IN(10,6)
      COMMIT;
EXCEPTION
      WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
           AOS_ERRMSG := SQLCODE ||' : ' ||SUBSTR(SQLERRM,1,200);
           PLOG.ERROR(DBMS_UTILITY.FORMAT_ERROR_BACKTRACE);
           PLOG.ERROR('AA - RECORDS NOT AVAILABLE' || ' ' ||O_ERRMSG);           
      RETURN;
      WHEN OTHERS THEN
           AOS_ERRMSG := SQLCODE ||' : ' ||SUBSTR(SQLERRM,1,200);
           PLOG.ERROR(DBMS_UTILITY.FORMAT_ERROR_BACKTRACE);
           PLOG.ERROR('AA - UNEXPECTED ERROR' || ' ' ||O_ERRMSG);
      RETURN;    
END;   

II Procedure:
-------------

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST(O_ERRMSG OUT VARCHAR2) IS
  CURSOR PF_CUR IS
  SELECT TABLE_NAME,COLUMN_NAME FROM AA;

      BULK COLLECT INTO V_SQLC;
                  
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(V_SQLC.COUNT);

           PLOG.ERROR('UNEXPECTED ERROR' || ' ' ||O_ERRMSG);
      RETURN;     


------------------
Requirement is: I am fetching the table names those have the column names say, 'SALARY' from the system tables and popluating in to the table created by me as records. Then i try to open the table in a cursor, make a dynamic select and fetch the records of those columns in the tables.

Then, i try to iterate through the records return by the dynamic select and i encrypt those data. On the flow, once encrypted, i dynamically update that corresponding table with this new string using 'WHERE CURRENT OF CURSOR'.

The Problem here is, I am unable to update the current record in the cursor with the encrypted new string. It fails in the update statement and the error ORA-3001 - Unimplemented feature is been thrown.

Brainies.....pls help me out in solving this issue.

1) The "execute immediate" has no idea what is current in the calling procedure.

2) And when you want to use "current of", even without dynamic SQL, you would have to specify an "for update of ..." in the cursor first.

3) But you can't do that with a cursor that is based on dynamic SQL, as far as I know.


For those three reasons you can't use the "where current of" in the where clause of the update.

Is this a one-time thing during a application upgrade or something? When nobody else is doing anything on the database?

In that case you might get away with using the ROWID both in the select and the update. But I wouldn't recommend that if it's going into a procedure that is going to be used in the day-to-day operation of the application/database.

Hi

I have changed you code little bit to use ROWID. You can change according to your code.

DECLARE
  CURSOR pf_cur
  IS
    SELECT table_name, column_name
      FROM aa;

  TYPE v_pf IS TABLE OF VARCHAR2 (32767)
    INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;

  e_key              RAW (128)        := UTL_RAW.cast_to_raw ('33669911');
  tab_name           VARCHAR2 (4000);
  col_name           VARCHAR2 (4000);
  encrypted_value    VARCHAR2 (100);
  encrypted_string   RAW (64);

  TYPE cursor_type IS REF CURSOR;

  v_cursor           cursor_type;
  l_string           VARCHAR2 (32700);

  TYPE r IS RECORD (
    column_data   VARCHAR2 (32000),
    rid           ROWID
  );

  TYPE t IS TABLE OF r;

  p                  t                := t ();
  l_counter          PLS_INTEGER      := 2;
BEGIN
  --DUMMY(O_ERRMSG);
  FOR t_cur IN pf_cur
  LOOP
    l_string := 'SELECT ' || t_cur.column_name || ',rowid FROM ' || t_cur.table_name || ' WHERE ROWNUM<10';

    OPEN v_cursor FOR l_string;

    LOOP
      p.EXTEND (l_counter);

      FETCH v_cursor
       INTO p (l_counter).column_data, p (l_counter).rid;

      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line ('TKSKLDK ' || p (l_counter).column_data);
      l_counter := l_counter + 1;
      EXIT WHEN v_cursor%NOTFOUND;
    END LOOP;

    FOR i IN p.FIRST .. p.LAST
    LOOP
      encrypted_value := DBMS_RANDOM.STRING (1, 10);

      EXECUTE IMMEDIATE    'UPDATE '
                        || t_cur.table_name
                        || ' SET '
                        || t_cur.column_name
                        || ' = '
                        || ''''
                        || TO_CHAR (encrypted_value)
                        || ''''
                        || ' WHERE rowid  = : rid'
                  USING p (i).rid;                                                     -- PROBLEM GOES HERE…..

      COMMIT;
    END LOOP;
  END LOOP;
END;


I have excluded you encryption package, I have given you example for UPDATE the data in the given table AA.

Thanks

Guys,

Thanks for all your effort. Encryption works fine.

Now, i have ended up problem with this query.

V_SQLS := 'SELECT 1 INTO ' || PR_DATA ||' FROM MIOS'
||' WHERE TABLE_NAME NOT LIKE' ||' :1'
||' AND COLUMN_NAME NOT LIKE'||' :2'
||' AND ORIGINAL_VAL <>'||' :3'
||' AND ENCRY <> "Y" '
||' AND DLU <> SYSDATE';

EXECUTE IMMEDIATE V_SQLS USING TAB_NAME,COL_NAME,V_SQLC(I);

I am getting this error while executing the above said dynamic update statement "ORA-00936: missing expression".

Help me out pls.

What's the deal with concatenating two strings?


If you ever get an error, using dynamic sql on a generated string, the VERY first thing to do is to print the generated query and execute that manually in sqlplus.
Do that, and copy-paste that here.

I am not able to find any update statement in the dynamic sql. However there is an issue with the dynamic sql. You cannot have any "into" clause in your dynamic. You will be getting an error.

If You use dynamic SQL
V_SQLS := 'SELECT 1 INTO ' || PR_DATA ||' 


Why not:
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE V_SQLS INTO PR_DATA USING TAB_NAME,COL_NAME,V_SQLC(I);
