sqlplus

I am new to using SqlPlus but not new to using SQL, and I get the following error after writing this in my editor and attempting to run the script that I wrote. All of this appears to be valid and works on sql fiddle... I am not sure what the issue is. Any ideas?? None of the files I create seem to work....

I created a function in oracle that inserts records in specific tables and return an output according to what occurs within the function. e.g (ins_rec return number) How do I call this function and see its output in sql plus declare x number; begin x := myfunc(myargs); end; Alternatively: select myfunc(myargs) from dual; One option would be: SET SERVEROUTPUT ON EXEC DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(your_fn_name(your_fn_arguments)); As another answer already said, call select myfunc(:y) from dual; , but you might find declaring and setting a variable in sqlplus a little tricky: sql> var y number sql> begin

I find that the arrow keys don't work on the sqlplus console. For example if I press left arrow key, it shows like SQL>^[[B Does any solutions exist to solve this problem? You can use a third party utility called rlwrap . rlwrap is a readline wrapper, a small utility that uses the GNU readline library to allow the editing of keyboard input for any other command.

I have very recently started to work on oracle databases. Generally I have many sqlplus windows open to different oracle databases. When switching from one sqlplus session to another, how can i view the current session details for each sqlplus session ? Any help is greatly appreciated! Take a look at this one (c) Tanel Poder . You may either run it from your glogin.sql (so these settings will update each time you connect, or just run it manually. Notice host title command - it changes your sql*plus console window title with session information - extremely useful with many windows open

I am not a fan of using SQL*PLUS as an interface to Oracle. I usually use yasql , but it hasn't been updated since 2005 and can do with some improvements. A quick Google search shows yasql and SQLPal . I am using linux, so SQLPal is not an option. Are there any alternatives out there, or am I stuck with an interface that I do not like or one that is no longer maintained? ropable I presume that you want a low-overhead method of knocking out queries, but want more functions than SQL*Plus provides?

每次登陆sqlplus，都会有提示信息，如下： SQL*Plus: Release 11.1.0.6.0 - Production on Mon Dec 26 14:21:01 2016 Copyright (c) 1982, 2007, Oracle. All rights reserved. Connected to: Oracle Database 11g Release 11.1.0.6.0 - Production 在shell中与sqlplus交互时，这些提示信息往往会破坏数据格式。 比如用spool导出数据的时候，不希望显示这些提示信息。 好在sqlplus提供了一个静默选项，关闭所有提示信息。 SILENT Option -S[ILENT] Suppresses all SQL*Plus information and prompt messages, including the command prompt, the echoing of commands, and the banner normally displayed when you start SQL*Plus. If you omit username or password, SQL*Plus prompts for them, but the prompts are not visible!
