Oracle for loop query - oracle

How to perform the following in Oracle PL/SQL:
BEGIN
FOR id IN ( 10,200,30,43,5444,6 )
LOOP
process_the_record ( id );
END LOOP;
END;
As this does not seem to work for me.
I basically need to iterate through each of these numbers and pass each number into the procedure, process_the_record (id).

You can use a collection-- you'd just need to call process_the_record rather than dbms_output.put_line
SQL> declare
2 type num_arr is table of number;
3 l_ids num_arr := num_arr( 10, 200, 30, 32, 5444, 6 );
4 begin
5 for i in 1 .. l_ids.count
6 loop
7 dbms_output.put_line( l_ids(i) );
8 end loop;
9 end;
10 /
10
200
30
32
5444
6

See the varrays entry here. Will these numbers ever change? Seems like its an awkward way to do things.

i am using this loop in my procedure and taking the email ids in i but when i am trying to run i am getting no data found error, so i want to check the values storing in i
code used:
for i in ( select EMAIL
into l_user_mail
from employee A CONNECT BY PRIOR lower(EMAIL) = lower(MANAGER_EMAIL)
START WITH lower(GUID) in (select replace(lower(group_name),'_org_slack')
from dynamic_group where id = '81')
) loop
l_user_mail:=l_user_mail || i.EMAIL;
end loop;
how to check the return value of i in sql command prompt.
i want to see the values getting in i
i want to see the values getting in i
Your FOR LOOP syntax is not correct. INTO clause should not be used in For Loop. See below how you can do that.
FOR I IN
(SELECT EMAIL
FROM EMPLOYEE A
CONNECT BY PRIOR LOWER (EMAIL) = LOWER (MANAGER_EMAIL)
START WITH LOWER (GUID) IN (
SELECT REPLACE (LOWER (GROUP_NAME), '_org_slack')
FROM DYNAMIC_GROUP
WHERE ID = '81') )
LOOP
-- l_user_mail:=:P60_IDP_GROUPS;
L_USER_MAIL := L_USER_MAIL || I.EMAIL;
-- To display value of I
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (I.EMAIL);
END LOOP;
Demo:
SQL> DECLARE
2 L_USER_MAIL VARCHAR2 (10);
3 BEGIN
4 FOR I IN (SELECT LEVEL
5 FROM DUAL
6 CONNECT BY LEVEL < 10)
7 LOOP
8 -- l_user_mail:=:P60_IDP_GROUPS;
9 L_USER_MAIL := L_USER_MAIL || I.level;
10 DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (I.level);
11 END LOOP;

Convert Varchar2 to Char array in Oracle

I have a varchar2 field and want to split it to array of chars
Like 'ABCDEF' --> 'A' 'B' 'C' 'D' 'E'
How can i convert my Field Values to chars array?
If you actually mean a PL/SQL collection of characters, you could do something like
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 declare
2 type char_arr is table of char(1) index by pls_integer;
3 l_str varchar2(100) := 'ABCDEF';
4 l_arr char_arr;
5 begin
6 for i in 1 .. length(l_str)
7 loop
8 l_arr(i) := substr( l_str, i, 1 );
9 end loop;
10 dbms_output.put_line( l_arr.count );
11* end;
SQL> /

Without understanding the business requirements, though, I would tend to be very suspicious. When you find yourself breaking apart strings in PL/SQL, that almost always implies that you have stored data in a non-atomic form and need to address the data model issue.

DELETE Collection Method in oracle work wrong

I want to use DELETE Collection Method to delete some elements in collection
such as:
create or replace procedure testloop3 (clearaaa out nestedtable) as
type nestedtable is table of varchar2(255);
reply_ref_messageIds nestedtable;
getDelete_messageIds nestedtable;
begin
select distinct r.messagebox_id bulk collect into reply_ref_messageIds from reply r;
select m.id bulk collect into getDelete_messageIds from messagebox m;
getDelete_messageIds.delete(2);
getDelete_messageIds.delete(4);
getDelete_messageIds.delete(7);
getDelete_messageIds.delete(11);
getDelete_messageIds.delete(13);
for i in getDelete_messageIds.FIRST .. getDelete_messageIds.LAST loop
dbms_output.put_line(i);
end loop;
for i in 5 .. 12 loop
dbms_output.put_line(i);
end loop;
end;
and then I debug this procedure with plsql dev
-- Created on 2013/4/4 by THINKPAD
declare
-- Local variables here
aa nestedtable;
begin
-- Test statements here
testloop3(aa);
end;
and I get the indexes of getDelete_messageIds before remove which are 1 to 15.
However: when I debug to getDelete_messageIds.delete(2); it removes index 1 and 2...I can't explain why.
And then when I debug next statement getDelete_messageIds.delete(4); it removes index 3 and 4. And then getDelete_messageIds.delete(7); only removes index 7...
I can't understand...
your procedure, as posted, is showing nothing of the sort. you are simply looping around like
for idx in 1..15 loop
(.FIRST will resolve to 1 and .LAST will resolve to 15). it does not mean there are still 15 elements in the NT.
you are not checking to see if the indexes are deleted. I think you're confused about the proper way to loop through a nested table where there are gaps.
i.e. you can see the elements are deleted:
SQL> create table messagebox(id ) as select to_char(rownum) from dual connect by level <= 15;
Table created.
SQL> create or replace procedure testloop3
2 as
3 type nestedtable is table of varchar2(255);
4 getDelete_messageIds nestedtable;
5 v_idx number;
6 begin
7 select m.id bulk collect into getDelete_messageIds from messagebox m;
8 getDelete_messageIds.delete(2);
9 getDelete_messageIds.delete(4);
10 getDelete_messageIds.delete(7);
11 getDelete_messageIds.delete(11);
12 getDelete_messageIds.delete(13);
13 v_idx := getDelete_messageIds.first;
14 while v_idx is not null
15 loop
16 dbms_output.put_line(v_idx);
17 v_idx := getDelete_messageIds.next(v_idx);
18 end loop;
19 end;
20 /

so 2, 4, 7, 11, 13 are deleted. exactly as expected.
you can see
DECLARE
TYPE NumList IS TABLE OF NUMBER;
n NumList := NumList(1,3,5,7);
counter INTEGER;
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('N''s first subscript is ' || n.FIRST);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('N''s last subscript is ' || n.LAST);
-- When the subscripts are consecutive starting at 1,
-- it's simple to loop through them.
FOR i IN n.FIRST .. n.LAST
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Element #' || i || ' = ' || n(i));
END LOOP;
n.DELETE(2); -- Delete second element.
-- When the subscripts have gaps
-- or the collection might be uninitialized,
-- the loop logic is more extensive.
-- Start at the first element
-- and look for the next element until there are no more.
IF n IS NOT NULL THEN
counter := n.FIRST;
WHILE counter IS NOT NULL
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE
('Element #' || counter || ' = ' || n(counter));
counter := n.NEXT(counter);
END LOOP;
ELSE
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('N is null, nothing to do.');
END IF;
END;

How to return a set of NUMBERS from a Function in PLSQL and then use it in a FOR LOOP?

I wanted to have a function in PLSQL that would return an set of numbers, and then have a for loop that would iterate over that dataset and do something with it.
Any suggestions ? Does the function need to be a pipeline function for it to be used in the for loop? Do I need to create a new type even though Im just returning numbers?
Thanks!
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY someBody AS
FUNCTION getListOfNumbers RETURN someList IS -- what type do I return ??
BEGIN
RETURN SELECT SID FROM V$SESSION; -- Not sure what do here ??
END;
PROCEDURE soSomeStuff IS
BEGIN
FOR rec IN(getListOfNumbers) -- how do I select from the function?
LOOP
dbms_output.put_line(rec);
END LOOP;
END;
END;
You would need to declare a collection type:
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE my_package AS
2
3 TYPE someList IS TABLE OF NUMBER INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
4
5 FUNCTION getListOfNumbers RETURN someList;
6 PROCEDURE soSomeStuff;
7
8 END my_package;
9 /
Package created
You would then use the defined type like this:
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY my_package AS
2
3 FUNCTION getListOfNumbers RETURN someList IS
4 l_list someList;
5 BEGIN
6 SELECT SID BULK COLLECT INTO l_list FROM V$SESSION;
7 RETURN l_list;
8 END;
9
10 PROCEDURE soSomeStuff IS
11 l_list someList;
12 BEGIN
13 l_list := getListOfNumbers;
14 FOR i IN 1..l_list.count LOOP
15 dbms_output.put_line(l_list(i));
16 END LOOP;
17 END;
18
19 END my_package;
20 /
Package body created
SQL> exec my_package.soSomeStuff;

Oracle stored procedure OUT parameters

I have a stored procedure with an IN OUT parameter declared like follows:
create or replace PROCEDURE RIFATT_SEGN0_INS(pIdRifattSegn0 in OUT NUMBER,
pNumDossier IN VARCHAR2 ,
pNumConsegna IN NUMBER,
pDtConsegna IN DATE,
[..]
) AS
[..]
Whenever i call it from another procedure, how do i get the pIdRifattSegn0 parameter that is also out?
Your question isn't entirely clear. An IN OUT parameter is passed both ways, as its name implies. This means it has to be passed a variable, not a literal and you need a declare block to do that. For example:
declare
l_segn number;
begin
l_segn := 1;
-- procedure will have received value = 1
rifatt_segn0_ins(l_segn, 'x', 2, sysdate);
-- procedure may have changed value of l_segn from 1 to something else
dbms_output.put_line(l_segn);
end;
Here is an example:
SQL> create or replace PROCEDURE RIFATT_SEGN0_INS
2 ( pIdRifattSegn0 IN OUT NUMBER
3 , pNumDossier IN VARCHAR2
4 , pNumConsegna IN NUMBER
5 , pDtConsegna IN DATE
6 )
7 as
8 begin
9 dbms_output.put_line(pNumDossier);
10 dbms_output.put_line(to_char(pNumConsegna));
11 dbms_output.put_line(to_char(pDtConsegna,'yyyy-mm-dd'));
12 pIdRifattSegn0 := sqrt(pIdRifattSegn0);
13 end;
14 /

8 , pNumConsegna => 42
