Hi Robert,
The function is something we got from Tom Kyte:

I am working on a similar situation with dynamic in clauses
and I am trying to implement what you are already doing. Can
you give me some more information on
"sf_sdba_csvstr2tbl". This looks more elegant than
what I have come up with so far.
Thanks

Hi,
Here's the situation:
We have a database with information from log files. The log
files are generally FTP logs - which files got downloaded,
where they went, how big they are, etc - and SQL*Loader logs
- rows read, rows rejected, start time, etc.
We are building a web page front end for the database that
allows users to query the logs.
So, for instance, we have a query page for the SQL*Loader
logs which allows the user to choose a database and/or
choose a schema and/or choose a table and/or choose a log
file and/or choose a date, then query the database for those
parameters.
The web developer has drop-downs for each of the possible
parameters. He initializes each drop-down when loading the
page, so that the database drop-down contains all the
possible databases, for example. Each drop-down has a
default value of "all".
Here's the question:
If the user selects "all" on a given drop down,
the web developer takes all the values in the array he uses
to populate the drop down, parses them into a
comma-delimited string, passes that into stored procedure
via a VARCHAR2 variable, then uses a function to put the
delimited string into an array which is cast to an object
and used in an IN clause in the query. An example follows at
the end of the message.
This screams "scalability problems" at me every
time I look at it. We're running the query against the
development database which returns small result sets for the
databases, schemas, tables, and logs. If we go into
production and a lot of people start putting log files into
the database, we're looking at possibly hundreds of
databases, thousands of schemas, tens of thousands of
tables, and millions of log files.
Do you agree with me? Or is the developer taking the correct
approach?
If you agree with me, what would be your approach?
Here's the procedure, with query:
PROCEDURE reporting_sqlldrlog (
p_rc_metrics OUT rc_generic,
p_str_database IN VARCHAR,
p_str_schema IN VARCHAR,
p_str_instance_id IN VARCHAR
)
IS
BEGIN
DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO.set_action
('reporting_sqlldrlog');
