Failure to execute a fully parsed multile lines SQL request

eraso — Fri, 27 Nov 2020 15:00:21 -0000

Hello,

With Tora 3.2.186/windows/x64, while executing a multiple lines SQL request, sometimes (often the first run), it fails to execute the full SQL request.

Even if the multiple lines SQL request is fully parsed, and so, all the request is recognized, the execution of the request takes only a part of it.

For instance :
1/ for the following request :
select "Price", "Quantity"
from "Fee"
where "Price" =0
;

If the cursor is on the first line, (often on the first run), the error "From clause is missing" is raised
if the cursor is on the second line, the error "from without select" is raised.

2/ for the following request :
select "Price","Quantity" from "Fee"
where "Price"=0
;
If the cursor is on the first line, (often on the first run), the request is executed without the where part.

This can be annoying if you're executing an update request in autocommit mode.

Failure to update values with mixed cases field name through HMI

eraso — Fri, 27 Nov 2020 14:43:29 -0000

Hello,

With Tora 3.2.186/windows/x64, while trying to update values of fields directly / interactively through HMI, it failed.

The problem is with mixed cases (lower and upper case) field names.
If such field names are'nt protected with double quotes, the field name is considered in upper case.
The field name with mixed cases is totally different with the "almost same" field name in uppercase.
For instance, the table Fee declares a field name called "Price".
If you try to update the value of "Price" field of the "Fee" table through HMI, the request sended to Oracle Server is :
update "Fee" set Price=0.01 where ...
But the request should be like :
update "Fee" set "Price"=0.01 where ...

High cpu time when showing columns list of a table with oracle 12c

DESNOS Sylvain — Thu, 23 Aug 2018 15:48:43 -0000

Hello,

We used Tora for many years to manage our Oracle databases. We are currently migrating them from 11g to 12c. With Oracle 12 databases, we noticed now very bad response time when we want to display the column characteristics of a table.

We have this issue with any Tora release (included the last 3.2-133); but only with Oracle release 12. Maybe due to its new multi-tenant architecture?

I traced your SQL request when calling this command (show columns list of a table of a schema). It is something like :

SELECT DISTINCT cl.column_name as nom,
cl.data_type as type,
cl.data_length as longueur,
cl.data_precision as precision,
cl.data_scale as echelle,
(SELECT comments FROM all_col_comments cm WHERE cm.owner = cl.owner AND cm.table_name = cl.table_name AND cm.column_name = cl.column_name ) AS "Comment",
cl.column_id
FROM all_tab_columns cl
WHERE cl.owner = &1 AND cl.table_name = &2
ORDER BY cl.column_id;

Best cost and response time would be get with this :

SELECT cl.column_name as nom,
cl.data_type as type,
cl.data_length as longueur,
cl.data_precision as precision,
cl.data_scale as echelle,
cm.comments,
cl.column_id
FROM user_tab_cols cl
left join user_col_comments cm
on (cl.table_name = cm.table_name and cl.column_name = cm.column_name)
WHERE cl.table_name = &1
ORDER BY cl.column_id;

What do you think about this alternative?

Thanks in advance for your response

#904 Disconnecting from database closes whole app

Ivan Brezina — Fri, 10 Aug 2018 14:29:22 -0000

probably fixed by last commit. long story short - tora cached names of all db objects for every connection. When you closed the app, before this bg task was done, the app crashed.

PS: use github for reporting bugs.

Disconnecting from database closes whole app

Peter Sivy — Fri, 03 Aug 2018 12:07:26 -0000

Disconnecting from database closes whole app. Empty Tora window used to display after disconnecting, so user can connect to different database once again.

Unable to show data when using Oracle Data Type BINARY_DOUBLE

dirsve — Wed, 25 Jul 2018 10:53:29 -0000

Version: v3.2-98-ga8380ed7
OS: Windows 8.1
Oracle: 11.2.0.4

It's not possible to show data of a table, if there is a column defined as BINARY_DOUBLE.

I'm getting the following error message:
DefinePar: Data type not registered: (101:0:0::%s)

Cannot set date format for databases other than Oracle.

Hans Deragon — Tue, 06 Mar 2018 12:19:10 -0000

As a new commer, I found that in the preferences, one cannot set the date format for databases other than Oracle (from what I have read on the web). I tried with Mysql and the option is simply not there. I want to YYYY-MM-DD format, while currently the default is YY-MM-DD. I have not tried for other databases.

Granted, in my case it is not a big deal, but others would probably prefer a more unconventional (non ISO-8601) date format.

This option should be made available for all database types. This bug is not meant for Mysql only.
