The TCL time or clock commands are useful for timing statements. More information is available in the documentation.

Generally speaking, such a program should be run in such a way as to minimize its impact on other users. This means initially choosing a machine with a small load as described above. Additionally, it is mandatory social etiquette that such jobs be run using a priority of 19. To reset your process priority do renice +19 pid where pid is the intensive process ID. For further information, consult the renice(1) and nice(1) man pages.

The complete SQL 92 standard is available at http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/~shadow/sql/sql1992.txt The DB2 SQL reference can be found at http://www.undergrad.math.uwaterloo.ca/~cs448/db2_doc/html/db2s0/index.htm

One can call DDL statements like CREATE, DROP, TRUNCATE, etc. from PL/SQL by using the "EXECUTE IMMEDIATE" statement (native SQL). Examples: begin EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE X(A DATE)'; end; begin execute Immediate 'TRUNCATE TABLE emp'; end; DECLARE var VARCHAR2(100); BEGIN var := 'CREATE TABLE temp1(col1 NUMBER(2))'; EXECUTE IMMEDIATE var; END; Users running Oracle versions below Oracle 8i can look at the DBMS_SQL package (see FAQ about Dynamic SQL).

Yes, run the "Queries with Table Hints", "Queries with Query Hints", and "Queries with Join Hints" to find this information. Please, keep in mind that the filtering option: "Show Top (in %): N" will filter the top queries with most executions and then it will check them for Hints usage; this lowers quite a bit the impact on the server when running this report. reports.

It is dependent on the license of PTReportGen you have purchased. For detailed information, see Licenses.

Best thing to do is get Ben Forta's book - Sam's Teach Yourself SQL in 10 minutes. This book is a very valuable resource you will use a lot. No matter how long you've been at it you can't remember every SQL command. This book will put them at your fingertips.

Starting from Oracle8i one can use the "EXECUTE IMMEDIATE" statement to execute dynamic SQL and PL/SQL statements (statements created at run-time). Look at these examples. Note that the statements within quotes are NOT semicolon terminated: EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE x (a NUMBER)'; -- Using bind variables... sql_stmt := 'INSERT INTO dept VALUES (:1, :2, :3)'; EXECUTE IMMEDIATE sql_stmt USING dept_id, dept_name, location; -- Returning a cursor..

Yes, run the "Query Optimizer" report. It will provide you with different statistics including the use of hints (i.e. table, join, plan, etc.)

You need to be able to hold a melody to successfully use these CDs. If you can't do that you'd be better off first working your ear with the The No Scales, Just Songs Vocal Workout

In Web terminology, a resource is "anything addressable via a URL." However, Dublin Core implementations are not necessarily Web-based. Dublin Core metadata can be used to describe any kind of resource - including various collections of documents and non-electronic forms of media such as a museum or library archive.

Enlightenment Intensive is a three (or more) day fully residential retreat designed to maximize the probability that participants will have an enlightenment experience while contemplating one of the following questions: Who Am I? What Am I? What Is Life? What Is Another? What is Love? Again, the goal of participating in an Enlightenment Intensive is not just to answer these questions intellectually, but to experience them directly.

SQL*Plus has a nice help system. Just type "help" or "help <command>" for help on a specific command.

Take a look at your monthly credit card statement, and you will see that it contains a great deal of important information. If you compare statements from several different companies, you will notice that although they may look different, there are many common elements.

Direct SQL mode of the Database Retrieval component allows freely-formatted SQL SELECT statements of any degree of complexity to be added to the procedures. The SQLCommand system function can be used to run SQL statements that add, update and delete rows in the database tables.

P6Spy is a transparent JDBC proxy-driver specialized to log the statements performed against the actual driver you normally would use. Using p6spy would allow to log the SQL statements issued by DbUnit. Move spy.properties into a directory listed in your classpath. Unlike JAR files, you do not directly reference your property file in the classpath (e.g.: if you have the file c:\r\proj\conf\spy.properties make sure you put c:\r\proj\conf in the classpath). Modify the realdriver line in the spy.

OJB ships with out of the box support for P6Spy. P6Spy is a JDBC proxy which delegates all JDBC calls to the real JDBC driver and traces all calls to a log file. P6Spy is contained in the p6spy.jar, which you'll find in the lib folder of your OJB distribution. Add this to the classpath of your app (if you're using the ojb-blank project, then simply copy the jar into the lib folder of the project and if you're using Eclipse then also add it to the project build path).

ColdFusion will automatically escape an apostrophe if it's in a variable value that you're inserting into a database. It escapes it by doubling it up from ' to ''. For exmple, if Var1 and Var2 contain apostrophies, you don't need to worry about escaping the following code.
