global temporary table in db2 stored procedure - sql

Question

Just getting into DB2, and have decided to use global temporary table in my stored proc for my task.
The task would be the next:
just populate some data for each day (during for example 5 days), selecting random rows from the other table
I'm getting my date like:
select id from (
select id, rand() rnd from source_table)
where rnd>0
order by rnd
fetch first 1000 rows only
I wanted to store somewhere that list of int to reuse them. The idea was the next -
create table test (id int, dt date);
create or replace procedure proc1 ()
begin
declare v_start date default '2018-05-25';
declare v_end date default '2018-05-30';
declare v_dml varchar(8000);
/* this part so far doesn't work
declare global temporary table
session.temp_tab(id int)
not logged on commit preserve;
insert into session.temp_tab(id)
select id from my_table;*/
while v_start <= v_end DO
set v_dml = 'insert into test (id, dt)
with t as (
select 1 id, '''||v_start||''' dt from sysibm.dual
union
select 2 id, '''||v_start||''' dt from sysibm.dual
union
select 3 id, '''||v_start||''' dt from sysibm.dual)
select *
from t
where id in (1,3)';
/*instead of 1,3 I would like to have list of values in some temp
table/array..., which I'll get
from the other table and can just use duriing this proc
I don't want to use sub select, because I'll get every time some random
data. But also I need that list for filter in several insert/update
statements*/
set v_start = v_start +1 day;
execute immediate v_dml;
commit;
end while;
end
P.S. I use DB2 LUW v10.5.0.7
UPD_1:
I would like to do DDL and DML operation in one loop. For example I want to add partititon and then insert the data to the same table. like this:
create or replace procedure proc1 (
in in_rep int)
begin
declare v_dt date;
declare v_end_dt date;
declare v_add_part varchar(1024);
declare v_id int;
declare v_next_id int;
select max(id), max(dt)
into v_id, v_dt
from test;
set v_end_dt = v_dt + in_rep day;
while v_dt < v_end_dt DO
set v_dt = v_dt +1 day;
set v_next_id = v_id+1;
set v_add_part = 'alter table TEST
add PARTITION part_'||v_next_id||'
starting from '||v_next_id||' ending at '||v_next_id;
execute immediate v_add_part;
insert into test (id, dt)
select v_next_id, v_dt
from sysibm.dual;
end while;
end
In this case I would get an error, SQLCODE=-327, SQLSTATE=22525
THE ROW CANNOT BE INSERTED BECAUSE IT IS OUTSIDE THE BOUND OF THE PARTITION RANGE FOR THE LAST PARTITION.
Cause of I'm trying to alter table and insert in the same time, not step by step. But can't really get how to do it step by step excep of replace insert with dynamic sql, like:
set v_add_part = 'alter table TEST
add PARTITION part_'||v_next_id||'
starting from '||v_next_id||' ending at '||v_next_id;
set v_ins = 'insert into test (id, dt)
select '||v_next_id||','''||v_dt||'''
from sysibm.dual';
execute immediate v_add_part;
execute immediate v_ins;

Here is an example of using the RAND() function to populate the session table.
Notice that the insert statement gets compiled only one time, but executed as many times as the date-range.
For production use you should add relevant error-handling.
create or replace procedure proc1 ()
language sql
specific proc1
begin
declare v_start date default '2018-05-25';
declare v_end date default '2018-05-30';
declare v_dml varchar(8000);
declare global temporary table
session.temp_tab(id int not null)
with replace not logged on commit preserve rows;
insert into session.temp_tab(id)
select int(rand()*1000) as random
from my_table order by random fetch first 1000 rows only;
set v_dml = 'insert into test (id, dt)
select t.id ,cast(? as date) from session.temp_tab as t ' ;
prepare s1 from v_dml;
while v_start <= v_end do
execute s1 using v_start;
set v_start = v_start + 1 day;
end while;
commit;
end

Answer 2

If you use Data Studio, that will parse your code locally and hi-light any syntax errors. The procedure creates for me (on Db2 11.1 anyway) once I added the work ROWS after PRESERVE
create or replace procedure proc1 ()
begin
declare v_start date default '2018-05-25';
declare v_end date default '2018-05-30';
declare v_dml varchar(8000);
-- this part so far doesn't work
declare global temporary table
session.temp_tab(id int)
not logged on commit preserve rows;
insert into session.temp_tab(id)
select id from my_table;
while v_start <= v_end DO
set v_dml = 'insert into test (id, dt)
with t as (
select 1 id, '''||v_start||''' dt from sysibm.dual
union
select 2 id, '''||v_start||''' dt from sysibm.dual
union
select 3 id, '''||v_start||''' dt from sysibm.dual)
select *
from t
where id in (1,3)';
/*instead of 1,3 I would like to have list of values in some temp
table/array..., which I'll get
from the other table and can just use duriing this proc
I don't want to use sub select, because I'll get every time some random
data. But also I need that list for filter in several insert/update
statements*/
set v_start = v_start +1 day;
execute immediate v_dml;
commit;
end while;
end
BTW your code would be better (IMHO) using a variable and static SQL rather than dynamically building a SQL statement. Also you can use VALUES with multiple rows, no need to select from a dummy DUAL tables.
I'm not sure what your task is, but I'm not sure you are close to the best solution here... ;-)
