Q:

26-12.

These steps for accessing a Java class from PL/SQL are now in order:

Use javac (or an IDE such as JDeveloper) to compile the Java code.
Use loadjava to load the class into the database.
Write PL/SQL wrappers to publish the class’ methods.
Grant the necessary privileges on the PL/SQL wrappers.
Call the PL/SQL wrapper programs.

Q:

26-13.

The operating system commands that compile and load the helloWorld class are:

javac helloWorld.java
loadjava "u scott/tiger "force helloWorld.class

Q:

26-14.

The Oracle8i DDL command that loads the helloWorld class directly into the database is:

CREATE OR REPLACE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "helloWorld" AS
   public class helloWorld {
      public static void doit () {
          System.out.println("Hello World!!!");
      }
   };

Q:

26-15.

(b). You include the LANGUAGE JAVA clause in a function or procedure header to create a call spec for a Java method.

Q:

26-16.

Executing DBMS_JAVA.SET_OUTPUT (buffer size) is the equivalent of the command SET SERVEROUTPUT ON. You will not see any output from the Java’s System.out or System.err until you execute this command.

Q:

26-17.

(c). You should use a procedure to publish a void Java method.

Q:

26-18.
