ORDDoc Constructors

This section describes the ORDDoc constructor functions, which are the following:

• init( ) for ORDDoc

• init(srcType,srcLocation,srcName) for ORDDoc

---

init( ) for ORDDoc

Format

init( ) RETURN ORDDoc;

Description

Initializes instances of the ORDDoc object type.

Parameters

None.

Pragmas

None.

Exceptions

None.

Usage Notes

This constructor is a static method that initializes all the ORDDoc attributes to NULL with the following exceptions:

• source.updateTime is set to SYSDATE

• source.local is set to 1 (local)

• source.localData is set to empty_blob

You should begin using the init( ) method as soon as possible so you can more easily initialize the ORDDoc object type, especially if the ORDDoc type evolves and attributes are added in a future release. INSERT statements left unchanged using the default constructor (which initializes each object attribute), will fail under these circumstances.

Examples

Initialize the ORDDoc object attributes:

BEGIN
  INSERT INTO pm.online_media (product_id, product_testimonials)
     VALUES (2808,ORDSYS.ORDDoc.init());
  COMMIT;
END;

init(srcType,srcLocation,srcName) for ORDDoc

Format

init(srcType IN VARCHAR2,

srcLocation IN VARCHAR2,

srcName IN VARCHAR2)

RETURN ORDDoc;

Description

Initializes instances of the ORDDoc object type.

Parameters

srcType

The source type of the media data.

srcLocation

The source location of the media data.

srcName

The source name of the media data.

Pragmas

None.

Exceptions

None.

Usage Notes

This constructor is a static method that initializes all the ORDDoc attributes to NULL with the following exceptions:

• source.updateTime is set to SYSDATE

• source.local is set to 0

• source.localData is set to empty_blob

• source.srcType is set to the input value

• source.srcLocation is set to the input value

• source.srcName is set to the input value

You should begin using the init( ) method as soon as possible to allow you to more easily initialize the ORDDoc object type, especially if the ORDDoc type evolves and attributes are added in a future release. INSERT statements left unchanged using the default constructor (which initializes each object attribute), will fail under these circumstances.

Examples

Initialize the ORDDoc object attributes:

BEGIN
INSERT INTO pm.online_media (product_id, product_testimonials)
   VALUES (2999, ORDSYS.ORDDoc.init('file', 'FILE_DIR', 'modem.jpg'));
END;
