Hello,

I have a proc created which dynamically creates scripts to be executed, e.g. using DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE it creates the following scripts to be executed:

EXEC D_Q_TST1('PARAM1','PARAM2','PARAM3');
EXEC D_Q_TST2('PARAM1','PARAM2','PARAM3');
EXEC D_Q_TST3('PARAM1','PARAM2','PARAM3');
EXEC D_Q_TST4('PARAM1','PARAM2','PARAM3');
EXEC D_Q_TST5('PARAM1','PARAM2','PARAM3','PARAM4','PARAM5');


Now, what I am really looking for is to explore options where we can spool the results into a file and run another proc to execute all of these proc through it.

Any help on it will be highly appreciated, and let me know if my request is not clear.


Thanks,
S

EXEC is a SQL*plus command & is at best an inelegant "solution" for any Production environment.
Why don't you just directly invoke the procedures?

Hello,

The procedures are there but the parameters are dynamic, so how you think is best to handle then, as a single proc is run say 5 times with diff parameters every time.

Thanks,
S

And the parameters come from?

How many different combination of parameters exist?

There is a script which picks them from the tables created for them. there was a need to choose EXEC only because the source tables to be referenced were also dynamic.

       SELECT A.SEQ_ID,
              A.UNIQUE_ID,
              a.SOURCE_SYSTEM,
              a.FIELD,
              a.RULE,
              a.PARAMETER1,
              a.PARAMETER2,
              a.PARAMETER3,
              a.PARAMETER4,
              a.PARAMETER5,
              a.PARAMETER6,
              a.PARAMETER7,
              b.rule_name
       FROM   MAPPED_RULES a 
       inner join 
         RULE_DESC_TABLE b 
           on a.rule = b.rule
       where a.rule > 100    
       order by source_system  


and here a.SOURCE_SYSTEM is the Table Name which is populated using the following script

DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('EXEC ' || REC01.rule_name  || '( '''|| REC01.unique_id||''' ,'||
REC01.seq_id||' ,'''|| REC01.source_system||''', '''||rec01.field||''', '''|| 
REC01.parameter1||''', '''|| REC01.parameter2||''', '''|| REC01.parameter3||''', '''|| 
REC01.parameter4||''', '''|| REC01.parameter5||''', '''|| REC01.parameter6||''');');


All the diff combinations are mapped into the table and based on the qry above, the script creates all the proc to be executed.

Thanks,
S

Above is a "elegant" & flexible "design that results in non-scalable performance and a challenging Quality Assurance nightmare.

It can be made to "work", for some loose definition of "work", by (ab)using EXECUTE IMMEDIATE.

I see the EXECUTE IMMEDIATE thing, need to polish it a bit now, as you said it will definitely be a QA nightmare. But this spool thing, can we add all this into the proc script ? So that a well formatted script is written into a file, ready to be executed through a UNIX job or something.

Thanks,
S

The SQL script I provided is a stand-alone one and can be executed From a Unix shell script that you can put in crontab.
