thanks. Im running the following test code from two different sessions. Odd thing is
when I run the signal routine once nothing happens. However, when i run it the second
time, my waiting routine executes on it?
I run this first:
declare
vname varchar2(10) := 'myalert';
vmessage varchar2(50) := 'NOTHING';
vstatus number;
begin
dbms_alert.register('myalert');
for i in 1.. 10 loop
dbms_alert.waitany(vname,vmessage,vstatus);
dbms_output.put_line('messag '||vname||' '||vmessage||' '||vstatus||' '||i);
end loop;
end;
/
I run this with a '/', nothing happens in the other session the first time. When I do
another '/' my other session gets woken up Any ideas?
declare
vname varchar2(10) := 'myalert';
vmessage varchar2(20) := 'SUCCEED';
begin
for i in 1.. 10 loop
dbms_alert.signal(vname,vmessage);
commit;
end loop;
end;

Title: RE: using dbms_alert to manage multiple processes
Will all processes signal one named alert or a process specific alert? If it is one alert then keep counting as you receive, if they are individually named alerts, keep a local pl/sql table and mark as you receive them. When you have alerts, dbms_lock for the same purpose is like riding a bike while it is being towed.
