My goal is to keep a table which contains bind values and arguments, which will later be used by dbms_sql. The below pl/sql example is basic, it's purpose is to illustrate the issue I am having with recalling values from prior loop objects.
The table account_table holds acccount information
CREATE TABLE account_table (account number, name varchar2(100)));
INSERT INTO mytest
(account, name)
VALUES
(1 ,'Test');
COMMIT;
The table MYTEST holds bind information
CREATE TABLE mytest (bind_value varchar2(100));
INSERT INTO mytest (bind_value) VALUES ('i.account');
COMMIT;
DECLARE
v_sql VARCHAR2(4000) := NULL;
v_ret VARCHAR2(4000) := NULL;
BEGIN
FOR I IN (
SELECT account
FROM account_table
WHERE ROWNUM = 1
) LOOP
FOR REC IN (
SELECT *
FROM mytest
) LOOP
v_sql := 'SELECT ' || rec.bind_value || ' FROM dual';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_sql INTO v_ret;
dbms_output.put_line ('Account: ' || v_ret);
END LOOP;
END LOOP;
END;
/
I cannot store the name i.account and later use the value that object. My idea was to use NDS; but, while the value of v_sql looks ok (it will read "Select i.account from dual"), an exception of invalid identifier would be raised on i.account . Is there a way to get the value of the object? We are using Oracle 11g2. Thanks!
Dynamic SQL will not have the context of your PL/SQL block. You cannot use identifiers that are defined in the PL/SQL block in your dynamic SQL statement. So you cannot reference i.account
and reference the loop that you have defined outside of the dynamic SQL statement. You could, of course, dynamically generate the entire PL/SQL block but dynamic PL/SQL is generally a pretty terrible approach-- it is very hard to get that sort of thing right.
If you are trying to use the value of i.account
, however, you can do something like
v_sql := 'SELECT :1 FROM dual';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_sql
INTO v_ret
USING i.account;
That doesn't appear to help you, though, if you want to get the string i.account
from a table.
Are you always trying to access the same table with the same where clause, but just looking for a different column each time? If so, you could do this:
p_what_I_want := 'ACCOUNT';
--
SELECT decode(p_what_I_want
,'ACCOUNT', i.account
, 'OTHER_THING_1', i.other_thing_1
, 'OTHER_THING_2', i.other_thing_2
, 'OTHER_THING_1', i.default_thing) out_thing
INTO l_thing
FROM table;
The above statement is not dynamic but returns a different column on demand...
