TRIGGER_AFTER_UPDATE

A TRIGGER_AFTER_UPDATE program is a program that you create and that Oracle OLAP checks for by name when an UPDATE statement executes. When the program exists in the same analytic workspace that you are updating, Oracle OLAP executes the program after executing the UPDATE.

Note: The USETRIGGERS option must be set to its default value of TRUE for a TRIGGER_AFTER_UPDATE program to execute

See also: A TRIGGER_AFTER_UPDATE program is only one of a number of trigger programs that you can write. You can write other trigger programs as described in TRIGGER command, TRIGGER_BEFORE_UPDATE, TRIGGER_DEFINE, and "Trigger Programs".

Notes

No Support for Recursive Triggers

Oracle OLAP does not support recursive triggers. You must set the USETRIGGERS option to NO before you issue an UPDATE statement within a TRIGGER_AFTER_UPDATE program.

Syntax

To create a program with the name TRIGGER_AFTER_UPDATE, follow the guidelines presented in "Trigger Programs".

Examples

Example 24-11 TRIGGER_AFTER_UPDATE Program

Assume you have defined the following program in your analytic workspace.

DEFINE TRIGGER_AFTER_UPDATE PROGRAM
PROGRAM
SHOW JOINCHARS ('calltype = ' CALLTYPE)
SHOW JOINCHARS ('triggering event = ' TRIGGER(EVENT))
SHOW JOINCHARS ('triggering subevent = ' TRIGGER(SUBEVENT))
 
END
 

When you issue an UPDATE statement the program executes and displays the following output.

calltype = TRIGGER
triggering event = AFTER_UPDATE
triggering subevent = AW
