What is the alternative for 'for loop' ?

kalyan vedagiriJul 7 2021 — edited Jul 7 2021

i want to update the table by using a decrementor and row id as below.
my_line_count := 0;
select count(*) into my_line_count from emp where empno = in_empno
For line_rec in ( select rowid from emp where empno = in_empno order by countline desc)
loop
update emp set countline = my_line_count where ROWID = line_rec.ROWID;
my_line_count = my_line_count -1;
end loop;
This procedure will be called for suppose 314 times, by another procedure( based on count in emp table i:e for each row);

Before data is like
select countline from emp where empno = in_empno ;
countline
1
1
1
1
1
-- so on

Expected result
select countline from emp where empno = in_empno ; (For exapmle there are 314 rows)
countline
314
313
312
311
.
.
.
3
2
1

Is there any way to perform above logic without loop?

What browser(version) and OS (version) are you working with?

I can not reproduce what you are describing using Win10 and the latest Chrome. Right-Clicking on that table demo shows me a context menu for sorting.  It does not select a row, or do any other selections.

Hello,

I thinks you need a uniqe Key for the rows.

self.dataprovider = new oj.ArrayDataProvider(deptArray, {idAttribute: 'DepartmentId'});

Thanks

Hi John,

I am using the lastest version of Google Chrome on Ubuntu 16.04.

I do get the context menu, but if I start hovering over other rows it starts to select -mark on yellow- these rows.

Hi Hamed,

I have a unique key for the rows, I get the same right click selection behavior on the cookbook link posted before, I thought this was an expected behavior from Ojet tables.

I tried it with Firefox 53 on Ubuntu 16.04 with no luck either. It worked as expected on W10 using the latest version of Chrome.

Hi,

Can you please share your code?

Thanks

Sorry for the late response,

I could share it, but what is weird is that the cookbook example doesn't work as expected either, I am not sure if my OS is the reason for this discrepancy. As I said before, the cookbook example works fine on Windows 10 but not in Ubuntu 16.04, at least in my computer.

Thanks,
