out.

Drop and create table: The table is
removed and created again.

Create table: The table does not
exist and gets created.

Action on data

On the data of the table defined, you can perform:

Insert: Insert data to an empty table.
If the table already contains data, the Job stops and the existing data
remains in the table.

Update: Update the existing data. You
have to set the key on the schema if this option is selected.

Append: Append data to the table, whether
the table is empty or not.

Replace: if the table already contains
data, delete all the existing data and insert the new data. If the table is empty,
insert the new data.

Truncate: If the table already contains
data, truncate all the existing data and insert the new data. If the
table is empty, insert the new data.

Schema and Edit
Schema

A schema is a row description, it defines the number of fields to
be processed and passed on to the next component. The schema is
either Built-in or stored remotely
in the Repository.

Click Edit
schema to make changes to the schema. If the current schema is of the Repository type, three options are available:

• View schema: choose this
  option to view the schema only.

• Change to built-in property:
  choose this option to change the schema to Built-in for local changes.

• Update repository connection:
  choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether
  to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion. If you just want to
  propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select No upon completion and choose this schema metadata
  again in the Repository Content
  window.

Built-In: You create and store the schema locally for this component
only.

Repository: You have already created the schema and stored it in the
Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs.

When the schema to be reused has default values that are
integers or functions, ensure that these default values are not enclosed within
quotation marks. If they are, you must remove the quotation marks manually.

You can find more details about how to
verify default values in retrieved schema in Talend Help Center (https://help.talend.com).

Advanced separator (for number)

Select this check box to change the separator used for the
numbers.

Use existing control file

Select this check box if you use a control file (.ctl) and specify
its path in the .ctl file name
field.

Record format

Define the record format:

Default: format parameters are set
by default.

Stream: set Record terminator.

Fixed: set the Record length.

Variable: set the Field size of the record length.

Specify .ctl file’s INTO TABLE clause manually

Select this check box to manually fill in the INTO TABLE clause of the control file.

Fields terminated by

Character, string or regular expression to separate fields:

None: no separator is used.

Whitespace: the separator used is a
space.

EOF (used for loading LOBs from
lobfile): the separator used is an EOF character (End
Of File).

Other terminator: Set another
terminator in the Field terminator
field.

Use fields enclosure

Select this check box if you want to use enclosing characters for
the text:

Fields enclosure (left part):
character delimiting the left of the field.

Field enclosure (right part):
character delimiting the right of the field.

Use schema’s Date Pattern to load Date field

Select this check box to use the date pattern of the schema in the
date field.

Encoding

Select the encoding from the list, or enter the encoding between double quotes
if it does not exist in the list. This field is compulsory for database data
handling.

Output

Select the type of output for the standard output of the Oracle
database:

to global variable.

Convert columns and table names to uppercase

Select this check box to uppercase the names of the columns and
the name of the table.

tStatCatcher Statistics

Select this check box to collect log data at the component
level.

Global Variables

NB_LINE_DATA: the number of rows read. This is an After
variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_BAD: the number of rows rejected. This is an
After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_INSERTED: the number of rows inserted. This is an
After variable and it returns an integer.

RETURN_CODE: the return code indicating the result of
processing. This is an After variable and it returns an integer.

ERROR_MESSAGE: the error message generated by the
component when an error occurs. This is an After variable and it returns a string. This
variable functions only if the Die on error check box is
cleared, if the component has this check box.

A Flow variable functions during the execution of a component while an After variable
functions after the execution of the component.

To fill up a field or expression with a variable, press Ctrl +
Space to access the variable list and choose the variable to use from it.

For further information about variables, see
Talend Studio

User Guide.

Usage rule

This dedicated component offers performance and flexibility of
Oracle DB query handling.

Dynamic settings

Click the [+] button to add a row in the table
and fill the Code field with a context
variable to choose your database connection dynamically from multiple
connections planned in your Job. This feature is useful when you need to
access database tables having the same data structure but in different
databases, especially when you are working in an environment where you
cannot change your Job settings, for example, when your Job has to be
deployed and executed independent of Talend Studio.

The Dynamic settings table is
available only when the Use an existing
connection check box is selected in the Basic settings view. Once a dynamic parameter is
defined, the Component List box in the
Basic settings view becomes unusable.

For examples on using dynamic parameters, see Reading data from databases through context-based dynamic connections and Reading data from different MySQL databases using dynamically loaded connection parameters. For more information on Dynamic
settings and context variables, see Talend Studio
User Guide.

Limitation

The database server/client must be installed on the same machine
where the Studio is installed or where the Job using tOracleBulkExec is deployed, so that the
component functions properly.
