procedure set_value_as_date_by_id

(

p_path in varchar2,

p_name in varchar2,

p_level_type in varchar2,

p_level_id in integer,

p_value in date,

p_commit in boolean default FALSE

);

Version: Oracle Portal 3.0.6.6.5 or later

Parameters

p_path

The path for the preference name.

Datatype: in varchar2

p_name

The preference name.

Datatype: in varchar2

p_level_type

A constant value for the type of level at which the value is stored.

Datatype: in varchar2

p_level_id

The ID of the user or group for whom the preference is being stored.

Note: If level type is SYSTEM_LEVEL_TYPE, then the level ID must be wwpre_api_value.SYSTEM_LEVEL_ID.

Datatype: in integer

p_value

The date value to be stored.

Datatype: in varchar2

p_commit

This parameter is now obsolete. It is left here only to ensure that when older code is used, it still compiles.

Exceptions:

If the value is not a date, VALUE_ERROR_EXCEPTION is raised.

If the path is not found, PATH_NOT_FOUND_EXCEPTION is raised.

If a duplicate path is found, DUPLICATE_PATH_EXCEPTION is raised.

If the name is not found, NAME_NOT_FOUND_EXCEPTION is raised.

If a duplicate preference name exists for the specified path, DUPLICATE_NAME_EXCEPTION is raised.

If the value has not been stored, a GENERAL_PREFERENCE_EXCEPTION is raised.

Example:

This example sets the default expiry date to 12/01/2001 at the user level.

declare

l_varchar2_value varchar2(4000) := null;

l_number_value number := null;

begin

wwpre_api_value.set_value_as_date_by_id

(

p_path => 'ORACLE.PORTAL.TEST.STYLE.DEFAULT',

p_name => 'EXPIRE_DATE',

p_level_type => wwpre_api_value.USER_LEVEL_TYPE,

p_level_id => wwctx_api.get_user_id,

p_value => 12012001

);

exception

when VALUE_ERROR then

dbms_output.put_line

(

'Invalid value for font_name at user level'

);

end;
