DBMS_PIPE通过创建管道,可以让至少两个进程进行通信.Oracle的管道与操作系统的管道在概念上有相同的地方,但是在实现机制不同.
下面介绍实现具体步骤:
1、创建一个程序包,姑且起名叫DAEMON,SQL语句如下:
/*创建daemon程序包*/
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY daemon AS
/*execute_system是实现运行os命令的函数*/
FUNCTION execute_system(command VARCHAR2,
timeout NUMBER DEFAULT 10)
RETURN NUMBER IS
status NUMBER;
result VARCHAR2(20);
command_code NUMBER;
pipe_name VARCHAR2(30);
BEGIN
pipe_name := DBMS_PIPE.UNIQUE_SESSION_NAME;
DBMS_PIPE.PACK_MESSAGE(''SYSTEM'');
DBMS_PIPE.PACK_MESSAGE(pipe_name);
DBMS_PIPE.PACK_MESSAGE(command);
/*向daemon管道发送表示命令的字符*/
status := DBMS_PIPE.SEND_MESSAGE(''daemon'', timeout);
IF status <> 0 THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20010,
''Execute_system: Error while sending. Status = '' || status);
END IF;
status := DBMS_PIPE.RECEIVE_MESSAGE(pipe_name, timeout);
IF status <> 0 THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20011,
''Execute_system: Error while receiving.
Status = '' || status);
END IF;
/*获取返回结果*/
DBMS_PIPE.UNPACK_MESSAGE(result);
IF result <> ''done'' THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20012,
''Execute_system: Done not received.'');
END IF;
DBMS_PIPE.UNPACK_MESSAGE(command_code);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(''System command executed. result = '' ||
command_code);
RETURN command_code;
END execute_system;
/*stop是让daemon停止*/
PROCEDURE stop(timeout NUMBER DEFAULT 10) IS
status NUMBER;
BEGIN
DBMS_PIPE.PACK_MESSAGE(''STOP'');
status := DBMS_PIPE.SEND_MESSAGE(''daemon'', timeout);
IF status <> 0 THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20030,
''stop: error while sending. status = '' || status);
END IF;
END stop;
END daemon;
