6.54 UPDATE_MEMBER_ATTRIBUTE Procedure Signature 3

Update the specified BLOB member attribute in the given named collection. If a collection does not exist with the specified name for the current user in the same session for the current Application ID, an application error is raised. If the member specified by sequence ID p_seq does not exist, an application error is raised. If the attribute number specified is invalid or outside the valid range (currently only 1 for BLOB), an error is raised.

Syntax

APEX_COLLECTION.UPDATE_MEMBER_ATTRIBUTE (
    p_collection_name IN VARCHAR2,
    p_seq IN NUMBER,
    p_blob_number IN NUMBER,
    p_blob_value  IN BLOB);

Parameters

Note:

Any character attribute exceeding 4,000 characters is truncated to 4,000 characters. Also, the number of members added is based on the number of elements in the first array.

Table 6-30 UPDATE_MEMBER_ATTRIBUTE Signature 3 Parameters

Parameter Description

p_collection_name

The name of the collection. Maximum length can be 255 bytes. Collection_names are case-insensitive, as the collection name is converted to upper case. An error is returned if this collection does not exist with the specified name of the current user and in the same session.

p_seq

Sequence ID of the collection member to be updated.

p_blob_number

Attribute number of the BLOB member attribute to be updated. Valid value is 1. Any number outside of this range is ignored.

p_blob_value

Attribute value of the BLOB member attribute to be updated.

Example

The following example sets the first and only BLOB attribute of collection sequence number 2 in the collection named 'Departments' to a value of the BLOB variable l_blob_content.

BEGIN
    APEX_COLLECTION.UPDATE_MEMBER_ATTRIBUTE (
        p_collection_name => 'Departments',
        p_seq => 2,
        p_blob_number => 1,
        p_blob_value => l_blob_content);
END;
