Java Environment Setup


Before we proceed further it is important that we set up the java environment correctly. This section guides you on how to download and set up Java on your machine. Please follow the following steps to set up the environment.
Java SE is freely available from the link Download Java. So you download a version based on your operating system.
Follow the instructions to download java and run the .exe to install Java on your machine. Once you installed Java on your machine, you would need to set environment variables to point to correct installation directories:

Setting up the path for windows 2000/XP:

Assuming you have installed Java in c:\Program Files\java\jdk directory:
  • Right-click on 'My Computer' and select 'Properties'.
  • Click on the 'Environment variables' button under the 'Advanced' tab.
  • Now alter the 'Path' variable so that it also contains the path to the Java executable. Example, if the path is currently set to 'C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32', then change your path to read 'C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32;c:\Program Files\java\jdk\bin'.

Setting up the path for windows 95/98/ME:

Assuming you have installed Java in c:\Program Files\java\jdk directory:
  • Edit the 'C:\autoexec.bat' file and add the following line at the end: 
    'SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\java\jdk\bin'

Setting up the path for Linux, UNIX, Solaris, FreeBSD:

Environment variable PATH should be set to point to where the java binaries have been installed. Refer to your shell documentation if you have trouble doing this.
Example, if you use bash as your shell, then you would add the following line to the end of your '.bashrc: export PATH=/path/to/java:$PATH'

Popular Java Editors:

To write your java programs you will need a text editor. There are even more sophisticated IDE available in the market. But for now, you can consider one of the following:
  • Notepad : On Windows machine you can use any simple text editor like Notepad (Recommended for this tutorial), TextPad.
  • Netbeans :is a Java IDE that is open source and free which can be downloaded fromhttp://www.netbeans.org/index.html.
  • Eclipse : is also a java IDE developed by the eclipse open source community and can be downloaded from http://www.eclipse.org/.

DBA_SCHEDULER_JOB_RUN_DETAILS and PURGE_LOG

How to purge DBA_SCHEDULER_JOB_RUN_DETAILS? Manually deleting from DBA_SCHEDULER_JOB_RUN_DETAILS is not recommended by oracle.DBA_SCHEDULER_JOB_RUN_DETAILS is a view that is using two master tables (scheduler$_job_run_details and scheduler$_event_log) and display the information about jobs history. As there is one procedure named PURGE_LOG and Oracle have Scheduler for this procedure. It will purges all rows in the job log that are older than 30 days.This is the default behavior of this procedure. You can change this to any number of days you want by setting the attribute "SET_SCHEDULER_ATTRIBUTE". e.g. exec DBMS_SCHEDULER.SET_SCHEDULER_ATTRIBUTE('log_history','15'); It will purge all logs older than 15days and it will maintain the history of 15days. But If you want manually purge these logs, you can use below solution:- exec DBMS_SCHEDULER.PURGE_LOG(log_history => 15, which_log => 'JOB_LOG'); It will purge all entries from the jog log that are o...

Oracle character AL32UTF8

The character set determines what languages can be represented in the database. Oracle recommends using Unicode (AL32UTF8) as the database character set. AL32UTF8 is Oracle's name for the UTF-8 encoding of the Unicode standard. The Unicode standard is the universal character set that supports most of the currently spoken languages of the world. The use of the Unicode standard is indispensable for any multilingual technology, including database processing. Changing the database character set is a time consuming and complex project. Therefore, it is very important to select the right character set at installation time. If the language is American English or a Western European language, then the default character set is WE8MSWIN1252. Each Microsoft Windows ANSI Code Page can store data from only one language or a limited group of languages, such as only Western European, or only Eastern European, or only Japanese. AL32UTF8 is a multibyte character set, database operations on character...
