I don't think execute immediate will run sqlplus command (spool command)

SQL> Begin

FOR I in 1 .. 3 LOOP

DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Value of I :'||I);

Execute immediate 'spool test1.log';

END LOOP; End;

2 3 4 5 6 7 Value of I :1

Begin

ERROR at line 1:

ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement

ORA-06512: at line 4

regards,

Ajay

Well, spool off will terminate spooling w/i oracle, but I think you may need a stored procedure or anonymous block with an execute immediate command to do what you are talking about, something like this. Note, I don't use execute immediate much so I don't promise anything::

Begin

Execute immediate('spool filename');

Execute immediate('select event,count(*) from v$session group by event');

Execute immediate('spool off')

Dbms_lock.sleep(2)

End

I want to run a command on sqlplus without making re-connection. At the same time I also want to see the output.

I can do this using UNIX but only problem is I have to make reconnection after every interval(which I don't want)

For e.g I run following script on unix prompt

#########################################################

while true

sqlplus -S "/as sysdba" <<EOF

select event,count(*) from v$session group by event;

exit;

EOF sleep 2

done

#########################################################

I want to achive same functionality without making reconnection after every 2 secs.

I tried to use loop,spool file and dbms_lock.sleep() but spool file does not display output till the procedure is completed

Can anybody help to achive this functionality ?

regards,

Ajay
