Using the PL/SQL Function body returning SQL query
-1
I am working with Oracle APEX and I'm trying to store a dynamic sql query in the PL/SQL Function body. Here is my current SQL query for a classic report:
SELECT
RELEASE,
COUNT(*) as "Total Tests", --total
SUM(CASE WHEN TYPE = 'P1' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as "P1",
SUM(CASE WHEN TYPE = 'P2' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as "P2",
SUM(CASE WHEN TYPE = 'P3' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as "P3",
SUM(CASE WHEN TYPE = 'P4' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as "P4"
FROM TABLENAME
group by RELEASE
ORDER BY case
when RELEASE = '19.3' then 1
when RELEASE = '18.11' then 2
when RELEASE = '18.9' then 3
when RELEASE = '18.7' then 4
when RELEASE = '17.3' then 5
else 6
end asc
I am trying to store the 'tablename' in a page item so that whenever a user changes the page item, this query will automatically pull from the given table. I've attempted to build a pl/sql function around this but continue to run into errors with the 'strings'.
Does anyone know how to convert this in to a dynamic pl/sql function?
Thanks in advance.

You should
- create a classic report whose source is a function that returns a query
that query should look like this:
return '
SELECT
RELEASE,
COUNT(*) as "Total Tests", --total
SUM(CASE WHEN TYPE = ''P1'' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as "P1",
SUM(CASE WHEN TYPE = ''P2'' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as "P2",
SUM(CASE WHEN TYPE = ''P3'' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as "P3",
SUM(CASE WHEN TYPE = ''P4'' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as "P4"
FROM ' ||
SYS.DBMS_ASSERT.sql_object_name(:P1_TABLE_NAME) ||
' group by RELEASE
ORDER BY case
when RELEASE = ''19.3'' then 1
when RELEASE = ''18.11'' then 2
when RELEASE = ''18.9'' then 3
when RELEASE = ''18.7'' then 4
when RELEASE = ''17.3'' then 5
else 6
end asc';
DBMS_ASSERTis here to prevent SQL Injection- set "use generic column names" to "Yes"
- page item's name is
:P1_TABLE_NAME(in my example); it should be a text field, submit when press Enter
That's all, I presume.
