Hi List,
We have a requirement in generating triggers for a set of configured tables in our database ( Oracle 10g) . I am thinking to write a procedure which reads the table names configured and create trigger for each table with a defined business ( Its just for audit , so the trigger code is same for table A and B but the name and columns might differ , the basic logic is same.)
The problem I am facing is that , in my generic procedure I am not able to generate the trigger string and execute it using 'EXECUTE IMMEDIATE' as for some of our tables when all columns and trigger code is appended the string goes beyond 4000( defined as VARCHAR2) .
The same will happen even if I use COLLECTIONS,TYPES or any object ?
Is there any other tricks to accomplish this, other than
- Writing/ Spooling the results to a file and executing this file to create a trigger ( I don't want to create the trigger source codes and maintain the file) 2.Writing individual trigger codes.
Any tweaks and tricks is appreciated.
The basic template would be
CREATE TRIGGER BEFORE EACH ROW
BEGIN
IF INSERTING INSERT TO SOME TABLE IF UPDATING INSERT TO SOME TABLE IF DELETING INSERT TO SOME TABLE
END;
/
Thank You,
Kind Regards,
