Assigning Index using bulk collect

When populating pl/sql table using bulk collect, assign index value using a column from the sql statement. For example:

select itemID, desc bulk collect into l_itemID, l_plsql_table[itemID].desc from items;

Right now to do this we've to loop thru the data and set the index.

Incremental bulk processing

There should be a provision to incrementally bulk collect the query columns in a select statement into a plsql collection.

for e.g.
select from emp increment 100; emp_tab should be populated with emp in increments of 100. *

Currently there is a limit clause. But you have to keep two plsql tables, one to bulk collect and another in which the results a
Consider A Declare tbl_emp emp_tbl Begin Select < End; Now, Declare tbl_emp emp_tbl1 emp_tbl2 cursor Begin open loop fetch /** for loop emp_tbl2.count end exit +1 append c the i bulk c is is table it is not advisable to bulk collect nearly 50000 rows at one * Do bulk the is table a table with nearly 5 common million rows. In case

stretc

end < End; in order to populate the plsql table, we need to temporarily have one plsql table , which will Do the

If we have a syntax to incrementally bulk collect as per the limit (say 200), then all these things will be done und --> Emp_tbl will Select be populated * in batches bulk of 200.

Returning * from DELETE

You can now write:

SELECT * BULK COLLECT INTO vLst FROM MyTable;

It is strange that you cannot write:

DELETE FROM MyTable RETURNING * BULK COLLECT INTO vLst;

It seems that RETURNING * is not supported. Instead, I have to write RETURNING col1, col2...
