Calling main function from java stored procedure - java

I have loaded the class file of a java program (that fetches data from an excel file and pushes it to a database and making connection to database using values from properties file) into the SQL developer.
Now I am trying to invoke the main method of the class file as below:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE dataset
AS LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'data_design_1.main()';
It gives the following error:
Error: PL/SQL: Compilation unit analysis terminated
Error(3,1): PLS-00311: the declaration of "data_design_1.main()" is incomplete or malformed
Could anyone tell me why is this error occurring??
Thank you.

I think that the declaration of your main is this
public static void main(String[] args)
so the declaration of your PL/SQL wrapper is wrong.
You haven't posted the Java code
Maybe I'm wrong.

No main class found

Language: Java
Program: Connecting to a database
Question: I'm trying to connect the sqlite database by following TutorialsPoint tutorial but I keep getting the main class not found error.
Implementation: My code is below followed by my terminal commands and folder structure screenshot. But basically all my files are located in one folder including the sqlite jar file.
import java.sql.*;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Connection c = null;
try{
Class.forName("com.sqlite.JDBC");
c = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlite:test.db");
} catch(Exception e) {
System.err.println(e.getClass().getName() + ": " + e.getMessage());
System.exit(0);
}
System.out.println("Opened database successfully!");
}
}
Terminal Commands
javac Test.java
java -classpath ".;sqlite-jdbc-3.23.1.jar" Test
Your problem was that you're explicitly trying to load the class com.sqlite.JDBC, whereas the driver class name must've changed somewhere along the way.
JDBC Type 4 drivers have added cleverness which allows you to specify only the connection URL, and the driver loads itself based on the beginning (i.e. jdbc:sqlite). No need to wonder what was the driver class's name.
Rant unrelated to the issue at hand:
Unfortunately people read old tutorials written by less than experts, so we constantly see Class.forName() being used, as well as the more serious issue, which is using Statement instead of PreparedStatement.
My classpath option was incorrect. I was on linux and was trying to do:
java -classpath ".;sqlite-jdbc-3.23.1.jar" Test
the correct way was
java -classpath ".:sqlite-jdbc-3.23.1.jar" Test
colon not semicolon. Unfortunately now it's giving me and error" ClassNotFoundException: com.sqlite.JDBC;
I will look into this.
Thanks for the comments which helped me find the error

Unsure about reason behind NoClassDefFoundError

I have built a DLL which I am attempting to wrap Java code with, however I am having some troubles with running my Java program. I wrote a simple test DLL and Java program and am producing the same error, and although there are plenty of resources regarding NoClassDefFoundError online I can't seem to solve mine with any troubleshooting methods.
Here is my D:\Test1.Java file
public class Test1 {
static {
//System.loadLibrary("HeyLand");
System.load("D://HeyLand.dll");
}
public native void displayHeyLand();
public static void main (String[] args) {
Test1 t = new Test1();
t.displayHeyLand();
}
}
After compiling, attempting to run D:\Test1.classresults in the following:
D:\>java Test1.class
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Test1.class
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Test1.class
at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:434)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:660)
at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:358)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:626)
Could not find the main class: Test1.class. Program will exit.
Why I am stumped :
1. I have set my classpath to be D:\, so I believe my class definition would be in the classpath, and I do not see how my compile-time and run-time classpaths could be any different.
2. I don't see how this could have anything to do with static initialization, and I believe the exception would look different.
Perhaps I'm just missing something incredibly simple, I am very newbie with Java.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
The classpath environmental variable is taking precedence over that in the java run command. You need to specify the class location (as well as removing the .class file extension)
java -cp . Test1
Java normal syntax for executing class file is
Java [<options>....} <class-name> [<arguments>....]
For example
java com.package.name.Test1
here how compiler works
1. Compiler search for complete class name
2. Load that class
3. check for main method - in the same class
4. Call main method with passed arguments in command line string.
Now following are the possibilities why your class may not found main method.
1 - forgot to include package name
I am new developer in java but I found when I run application using eclips or intellJ editor it gives different path and package name and execute code as I noticed it on command line edior. So make sure you are including package name
For example:
java com.package.name.Test1 instead of
java Test1
2. File name or pathname rather then class name
As I noticed output file is in different location. That why class file path was different.
java Test1.class
java com/package/name/Test1.class
3. Typo
also I noticed you are using
static {
//System.loadLibrary("HeyLand");
System.load("D://HeyLand.dll");
}
Is this function ? or constructor? If it is function then where is name of the function? You cant write code without any reference in classs

Issues of using "SequenceFilesFromDirectory" in my code

I am trying to write a sample program that can call use the main method of "SequenceFilesFromDirectory", which aims to convert a set of files into sequence file format.
public class TestSequenceFileConverter {
public static void main(String args[]){
String inputDir = "inputDir";
String outputDir = "outoutDir";
SequenceFilesFromDirectory.main(new String[] {"--input",
inputDir.toString(), "--output", outputDir.toString(), "--chunkSize",
"64", "--charset",Charsets.UTF_8.name()});
}
}
But the Eclipse tells me that what I did was wrong with the following error message
Multiple markers at this line
- Syntax error on token "main", = expected after this
token
- Syntax error on token(s), misplaced construct(s)
- SequenceFilesFromDirectory cannot be resolved
I think I did not use this method correctly, but I don't know how to fix it? Thanks a lot.
The following is how the SequenceFilesFromDirectory defines. The API link for SequenceFilesFromDirectory is http://search-lucene.com/jd/mahout/utils/org/apache/mahout/text/SequenceFilesFromDirectory.html
My guess is that you're missing an import line from the first section of your file:
import org.apache.mahout.text.SequenceFilesFromDirectory;
I think your purpose for using SequenceFilesFromDirectory is to convert doc files to sequence files. If so, better to call the run()/runSequential()/runMapReduce() methods ater creating an object of SequenceFilesFromDirectory, because SequenceFilesFromDirectory.main() internally calls haddop ToolRunner.run() method for processing.
Whereas the run methods of SequenceFilesFromDirectory do the actual processings.

Where does the system.out.println output go in Oracle Java class?

I have loaded a Java class into Oracle using the loadjava utility.
This class has some system.out.println messages.
When I execute a method from this class I want to see the the sysout messages.
Where can I find these messages?
System.out and System.err writes to the current trace files.
You can enable output to SQL*Plus or similar with
set serveroutput on size 10000
exec dbms_java.set_output(10000)
See the Java Developer's Guide here.
That said, you should ask yourself, what do I want to log, that my client would not like to see returned in the interface to my procedure?. The answer to that is usually nothing.
I have been able to set up http://www.slf4j.org/ with a JDBC database appender (I am unsure of the specifics).
An Oracle article provides some useful information.
Quote:
Your class:
public class SimpleJava {
public void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Here we are");
}
}
Now, compile and load your class:
C:\oracle9i\bin>javac SimpleJava.java
C:\oracle9i\bin>loadjava -user scott/tiger SimpleJava.class
From SQL*Plus, create the PL/SQL wrapper to invoke the newly loaded Java class:
SQL> create or replace procedure call_simplejava
2 as language java
3 name 'SimpleJava.showMessage()';
4 /
Execute the code from SQL*Plus:
SQL> set serveroutput on;
SQL> call dbms_java.set_output(50);
Call completed.
SQL> execute call_simplejava;
Here we are

How to load Java Stored Procedure through JDBC into Oracle 10g?

I'm trying to load some java stored procedures into an Oracle 10g database through JDBC. The statement I'm executing is -
CREATE OR REPLACE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "test.Test" AS
package test;
public class Test {
public static String myMethod(String a) {
return a;
}
};
Running this through TOAD works just fine, but when running through my JDBC client gives the following error -
Exception in thread "Thread-3" java.lang.NullPointerException
at oracle.jdbc.driver.T4C8Oall.getNumRows(T4C8Oall.java:728)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.T4CStatement.execute_for_rows(T4CStatement.java:478)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleStatement.doExecuteWithTimeout(OracleStatement.java:1028)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleStatement.executeUpdate(OracleStatement.java:1451)
at ejsdal.CreateDBJavaSQL.executeScript(CreateDBJavaSQL.java:23)
at ejsdal.OperationController.run(OperationController.java:182)
I'm using the java.sql.Statement's "executeUpdate" passing the string in the first code block.
It is possible to load java source through JDBC?
Figured it out - need to set the
statement.setEscapeProcessing(false);
before executing the update. This is because the Java source file's { and } characters are misinterpreted as procedure call syntax by the JDBC driver.
