to a complex view

A database view is
a logical (virtual)
table based on a
query.
Table-1
With the database view,
you can view database
records, but you can’t
insert new records or
modify or delete exiting
records.
Database Views
Table-2
Table-N
database
Single view table
Database view
Query
It does not
store data, but
presents it in a
format
different from
the one in
which it is
stored in the
underlying
tables.
Output:
Report, Graphs

Views
• Permanent objects (logical or virtual table)
no data
that store queries but ____
• Based on a source query that:
– can specify a subset of a single table’s fields or records
– can join multiple tables
• Two purposes
– Reduce complex query requirements
– Restrict users’ access to sensitive data (enforce
security; user has access to view but not
underlying table)
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle)
5
Creating and Using Database Views
• Views can be updateable if:
– SELECT clause contains only fieldnames, no functions
or calculations
– Can ____
not contain the ORDER BY, DISTINCT, or
GROUP BY clauses, group functions, or set operators
– search condition cannot contain a nested query
• Views are used like tables for selecting, inserting,
updating and deleting data (only updatable views can
be modified)

Database View (cont.)
SELECT view_name FROM user_views;

Overview of View Concepts

I. Creating a View
• You use the CREATE VIEW keywords to create a view
• Use OR REPLACE if the view already exists
• Use FORCE if the underlying table does not exist at the time
of creation
• Provide new column names if necessary
• WITH CHECK OPTION constraint – if used, prevents data
changes that will make the data subsequently inaccessible to
the view
• WITH READ ONLY – prevents DML operations

SELECT isbn, title, category
FROM books
WHERE category=‘COOKING’;
2
Processing steps:
1. A query references a view rather than a table in the FROM clause.
2. The query stored in the view is executed.
3. The results from the view query are stored in temporary storage.
4. The original query uses the temporary query results of the view as a table and
completes execution.

DML Operations on a Simple View
• Any DML operations are allowed through simple
views unless created with WITH READ ONLY
option
• DML operations that violate constraints on the
underlying table are not allowed

Combining Topics –
VIEW and NON-Equality Join
• Combing both VIEW (chapter 13) and NONEQUALITY JOINS (chapter 9; p.316)
• A non-equality join enables you to store a range's
minimum value in one column of a record and the
maximum value in another column. So instead of finding
a column-to-column match, you can use a non-equality
join to determine whether the item being shipped falls
between minimum and maximum ranges in the columns.
• If the join does find a matching range for the item, the
corresponding shipping fee (and others) can be returned
in the results
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle)
14
Business Scenario
• Once a year, JustLee Books offers weeklong promotion in
which customers receive a gift based on the value of each
book purchase. If a customer purchases a book with a retail
price of $12 or less, the customer receives a bookmark. If the
retail price is more than $12 but less than or equal to $25, the
customer receives a box of book-owner labels.
• For books retailing for more than $25 and less than or equal
to $56, the customer is entitled to a free book cover. For
books retailing for more than $56, the customer receives free
shipping.

Task …
• Your job is to produce a report listing book title, publisher
name, profit and its gift (note individual gift that is based on
the retail price falls between minimal and maximal retail
prices)
• Hint:
• Because the rows in the BOOKS and PROMOTION tables
don't contain equivalent values (pk and fk), you must use a
non-equality join to determine which gift a customer
receives during the promotion.

21
Rule for DML operations
• As long as the view isn’t created with the WITH
READ ONLY option and any DML operation is
allowed if it doesn’t violate an existing constraint
on the underlying table.
• You can add, modify, and even delete data in an
underlying table as long as one of the following
constraints doesn’t prevent the operation:
– PRIMARY KEY - FOREIGN KEY
– UNIQUE
- NOT NULL
– WITH CHECK OPTION

Exercises
• Practice all the examples in the text.
• A Script file is available on the Bb (file
name: ch13Queries.sql)
• After completing all examples, do the HW.

Homework - Hands-On Assignments
Upload the source (*.sql) and spooled file (*.txt) to the Bb
(under “Assignments & Projects”) by the deadline.
Read and Practice all examples on Chapters 13
• 1. Read Oracle assignment and create a script
file Oracle_ch13_Lname_Fname.sql for
questions (#1-5 and 9,10; p.537) on “Handson Assignments”.
• 2. Execute and test one problem at a time and
make sure they are all running successfully.
• 3. When you done, spool the script files (see
next slide for spooling instructions) and
UPLOAD the file
(Oracle_ch13_Spool_Lname_Fname.txt) to
me by the midnight Sunday.
• 4. Turn in a hardcopy next class.
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle)
24
How to Spool your Script and Output Files
After you tested the script file of Oracle_ch13_Lname_Fname.sql
successfully, follow the instructions below to spool both script and output
files:
Step 0. Run the following script file from SQL*Plus (since you have created
JLDB tables)
• 1. type the following on SQL>
– Spool c:\oradata\Oracle_ch13B_Spool_Lname_Fname.txt (make sure your name is
entered)
• 2. open Oracle_ch13_Lname_Fname.sql that you already tested
• 3. copy and paste all the SQL commands (including all comments) to the
SQL*PLUS
• 4. type Spool Off on the SQL>
The output should contain your personal information, all SQL commands and
their solution on the .txt file and saved in C: drive (oradata\ folder)
UPLOAD script and spooled files (*.sql and *.txt)
