Introducing the PSBTREE Example

The example in this chapter illustrates how to implement the extensible indexing interface routines in C. The example's focus is on topics that are common to all implementations; it does not expose domain-specific details.

The code for the example is in the demo directory, in the file extdemo6.sql. It extends an earlier example (extdemo2.sql, also in demo directory) by adding to the indextype support for local domain indexes on range partitioned tables.

Designing of the Indextype

The indextype implemented here, called PSBtree, operates like a b-tree index. It supports three user-defined operators: eq (equals), lt (less than), and gt (greater than). These operators operate on operands of VARCHAR2 data type.

The index data consists of records of the form <key, rid> where key is the value of the indexed column and rid is the row identifier of the corresponding row. To simplify the implementation of the indextype, the index data is stored in an system-partitioned table.

When an index is a system-managed local domain index, one partition in a system-partitioned table is created for each partition to store the index data for that partition. Thus, the index manipulation routines merely translate operations on the PSBtree into operations on the table partition that stores the index data.

When a user creates a PSBtree index (a local index), n table partitions are created consisting of the indexed column and a rowid column, where n is the number of partitions in the base table. Inserts into the base table cause appropriate insertions into the affected index table partition. Deletes and updates are handled similarly. When the PSBtree is queried based on a user-defined operator (one of gt, lt and eq), an appropriate query is issued against the index table partitions to retrieve all the satisfying rows. Appropriate partition pruning occurs, and only the index table partitions that correspond to the relevant, or "interesting", partitions are accessed.

Implementing Operators

The PSBtree indextype supports three operators. Each operator has a corresponding functional implementation. The functional implementations of the eq, gt and lt operators are presented in the following section.

Create Functional Implementations

This section describes the functional implementation of comparison operators. Example 16-1 shows how to implement eq (equals), Example 16-2 shows how to implement lt (less than), and Example 16-3 shows how to implement gt (greater than) operators.

Example 16-1 How to Implement the EQUALS Operator

The functional implementation for eq is provided by a function (bt_eq) that takes in two VARCHAR2 parameters and returns 1 if they are equal and 0 otherwise.

CREATE FUNCTION bt_eq(a VARCHAR2, b VARCHAR2) RETURN NUMBER AS
BEGIN 
  IF a = b then
    RETURN 1;
  ELSE
    RETURN 0;
  END IF;
END;

Example 16-2 How to Implement the LESS THAN Operator

The functional implementation for lt is provided by a function (bt_lt) that takes in two VARCHAR2 parameters and returns 1 if the first parameter is less than the second, 0 otherwise.

CREATE FUNCTION bt_lt(a VARCHAR2, b VARCHAR2) RETURN NUMBER AS
BEGIN 
  IF a < b then
    RETURN 1;
  ELSE
    RETURN 0;
  END IF;
END;

Example 16-3 How to Implement the GREATER THAN Operator

The functional implementation for gt is provided by a function (bt_gt) that takes in two VARCHAR2 parameters and returns 1 if the first parameter is greater than the second, 0 otherwise.

CREATE FUNCTION bt_gt(a VARCHAR2, b VARCHAR2) RETURN NUMBER AS
BEGIN 
  IF a > b then
    RETURN 1;
  ELSE
    RETURN 0;
  END IF;
END;

Create Operators

To create the operator, you must specify the signature of the operator along with its return type and its functional implementation. Example 16-4 shows how to create eq (equals), Example 16-5 shows how to create lt (less than), and Example 16-6 shows how to create gt (greater than) operators.

Example 16-4 How to Create the EQUALS Operator

CREATE OPERATOR eq 
BINDING (VARCHAR2, VARCHAR2) RETURN NUMBER 
USING bt_eq;

Example 16-5 How to Create the LESS THAN Operator

CREATE OPERATOR lt 
BINDING (VARCHAR2, VARCHAR2) RETURN NUMBER 
USING bt_lt;

Example 16-6 How to Create the GREATER THAN Operator

CREATE OPERATOR gt 
BINDING (VARCHAR2, VARCHAR2) RETURN NUMBER 
USING bt_gt;

Implementing the ODCIIndex Interfaces

To implement the PSBTREE, you must implement the ODCIIndexXXX() routines, as outlined in the following sections. You can implement the index routines in any language supported by Oracle. This section implements the ODCIGetInterfaces() routine in the C programming language. Note that these require advance setup, such as creating a library object, extdemo6l, for your compiled C code.

Defining an Implementation Type for PSBTREE

Define an implementation type that implements the ODCIIndex interface routines, as demonstrated in Example 16-7.

Example 16-7 How to Create a PSBTREE Index Type

CREATE TYPE psbtree_im AS OBJECT
(
  scanctx RAW(4),
  STATIC FUNCTION ODCIGetInterfaces(ifclist OUT SYS.ODCIObjectList)
    RETURN NUMBER,
  STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexCreate (ia SYS.ODCIIndexInfo, parms VARCHAR2,
    env SYS.ODCIEnv) RETURN NUMBER,
  STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexAlter (ia sys.ODCIIndexInfo, 
    parms IN OUT VARCHAR2, altopt number, env sys.ODCIEnv) RETURN NUMBER, 
  STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexDrop(ia SYS.ODCIIndexInfo, env SYS.ODCIEnv)

Example 16-9 shows how to implement ODCIGetInterfaces(), Example 16-10 shows how to implement ODCIIndexCreate(), Example 16-11 shows how to implement ODCIIndexDrop(), Example 16-12 shows how to implement ODCIIndexAlter(), Example 16-13 shows how to implement ODCIIndexUpdPartMetadata(), and Example 16-14 shows how to implement ODCIIndexExchangePartition().

Example 16-9 How to Implement ODCIGetInterfaces() for PBSTREE in PL/SQL

The ODCIGetInterfaces() routine, demonstrated in Example 16-9, returns the expected interface name through its OUT parameter.

STATIC FUNCTION ODCIGetInterfaces(
  ifclist OUT sys.ODCIObjectList) 
RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
  ifclist := sys.ODCIObjectList(sys.ODCIObject('SYS','ODCIINDEX2'));
  RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END ODCIGetInterfaces;

Example 16-10 How to Implement ODCIIndexCreate() for PBSTREE in PL/SQL

The ODCIIndexCreate() routine creates a system-partitioned index storage table with two columns. The first column stores the VARCHAR2 indexed column value. The routine makes use of the information passed in to determine the context in which it is invoked. Dynamic SQL is used to execute the dynamically constructed SQL statement.

STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexCreate (
  ia sys.ODCIIndexInfo, 
  parms VARCHAR2, 
  env sys.ODCIEnv) 
RETURN NUMBER IS
  i INTEGER;
  stmt VARCHAR2(2000);
  cursor cur1(ianame VARCHAR2) IS
    SELECT partition_name, parameters 
    FROM user_ind_partitions 
    WHERE index_name = ianame order by partition_name;
BEGIN
  stmt := '';
 
  IF (env.CallProperty is null)  THEN
    stmt := 'create table ' ||ia.IndexSchema || '.' || ia.IndexName ||
      '_sbtree(f1 VARCHAR2(1000), f2 rowid)';

  ELSEIF (env.callproperty = sys.ODCIConst.FirstCall) THEN
  stmt := '';
  i := 1;
  FOR c1 in cur1(ia.indexname) LOOP
    IF (i >1) THEN
      stmt := stmt || ',';
    END IF;
    stmt := stmt || 'partition ' || c1.partition_name;
    i := i+1;
  END LOOP;
  stmt := 'create table ' || ia.indexschema || '.' || ia.indexname ||
    '_sbtree (f1 VARCHAR2(1000), f2 rowid) partition by system ' ||
     '( ' || stmt || ')';

  ELSEIF (env.callproperty = sys.ODCIConst.FinalCall) THEN
    stmt := 'create index ' || ia.indexschema || '.' || ia.indexname ||
      '_sbti on ' || ia.indexschema || '.' || ia.indexname ||
      '_sbtree (f1) local';
  END IF;
 
  dbms_output.put_line('Create');
  dbms_output.put_line(stmt);
 
  -- execute the statement
  IF ((env.CallProperty is null) OR
      (env.CallProperty = sys.ODCIConst.FirstCall) OR
      (env.CallProperty = sys.ODCIConst.FinalCall) ) THEN
    execute immediate stmt;

  IF (env.CallProperty is null) THEN
    execute immediate 'insert into ' ||ia.IndexSchema || '.' || ia.IndexName 
      || '_sbtree select '  || ia.IndexCols(1).Colname || ', ROWID from ' ||
      ia.IndexCols(1).TableSchema || '.' || ia.IndexCols(1).TableName;
    execute immediate 'create index ' || ia.indexschema || '.' || 
      ia.indexname || '_sbti on ' || ia.indexschema || '.' || 
      ia.indexname || '_sbtree (f1)';
    END IF;
  END IF;
 
  RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END ODCIIndexCreate;

Example 16-11 How to Implement ODCIIndexDrop() for PBSTREE in PL/SQL

The ODCIIndexDrop() routine drops the index storage tables.

STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexDrop(
  ia sys.ODCIIndexInfo,
  env sys.ODCIEnv) 
RETURN NUMBER IS
  stmt VARCHAR2(1000);
  cnum INTEGER;
  junk INTEGER;
BEGIN
  -- construct the sql statement
  stmt := '';

  IF (env.CallProperty is null) THEN
    stmt := 'drop table ' || ia.IndexSchema || '.' || ia.IndexName || '_sbtree';
    dbms_output.put_line('Drop');
    dbms_output.put_line(stmt);
    execute immediate stmt;
  END IF;
  RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END ODCIIndexDrop;

Example 16-12 How to Implement ODCIIndexAlter() for PSBTREE in PL/SQL

The ODCIIndexAlter() routine can perform many index alteration tasks, such as rebuilding and renaming an index.

STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexAlter (
  ia sys.ODCIIndexInfo, 
  parms IN OUT VARCHAR2, 
  altopt NUMBER,
  env sys.ODCIEnv) 
RETURN NUMBER IS
  stmt    VARCHAR2(2000);
BEGIN
  stmt := '';
  IF (altopt = ODCIConst.AlterIndexRebuild) THEN
    IF (ia.IndexPartition is null) THEN
      stmt := 'insert into ' || ia.indexschema || '.' || ia.indexname ||
          '_sbtree select ' || ia.indexcols(1).colname || ', rowid from ' ||
          ia.indexcols(1).tableschema || '.' || ia.indexcols(1).tablename;
    ELSE
      stmt := 'insert into ' || ia.indexschema || '.' || ia.indexname ||
          '_sbtree partition (' || ia.indexpartition || ') select ' || 
          ia.indexcols(1).colname || ', rowid from ' ||
          ia.indexcols(1).tableschema || '.' || ia.indexcols(1).tablename ||
          ' partition (' || ia.indexcols(1).tablepartition || ')';
    END IF;
  ELSEIF (altopt = ODCIConst.AlterIndexRename) THEN
    IF (ia.IndexPartition is not null) THEN
      stmt := 'alter table ' || ia.indexschema || '.' || ia.indexname ||
          '_sbtree rename partition ' || ia.indexpartition || ' to ' || parms;
    ELSE
      stmt := 'alter table ' || ia.indexschema || '.' || ia.indexname ||
          '_sbtree rename to ' || parms || '_sbtree';
    END IF;
  END IF;

  dbms_output.put_line('Alter');
  IF ((altopt=ODCIConst.AlterIndexRebuild) or (altopt=ODCIConst.AlterIndexRename))
  THEN
    dbms_output.put_line(stmt);
    execute immediate stmt;
  END IF;
  RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END ODCIIndexAlter;

Example 16-13 How to Implement ODCIIndexUpdPartMetadata() for PSBTREE in PL/SQL

To handle partition maintenance operations, the kernel performs the maintenance tasks on behalf of the user. The indextype, to maintain its metadata, should have the ODCIIndexUpdPartMetadata() routine.

STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexUpdPartMetadata(
  ia sys.ODCIIndexInfo, 
  palist sys.ODCIPartInfoList, 
  env sys.ODCIEnv) 
RETURN NUMBER IS
  col  number;
BEGIN
  dbms_output.put_line('ODCIUpdPartMetadata');
  sys.ODCIIndexInfoDump(ia);
  sys.ODCIPartInfoListDump(palist);
  sys.ODCIEnvDump(env);
  RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END ODCIIndexUpdPartMetadata;

Example 16-14 How to Implement ODCIIndexExchangePartition() for PSBTREE in PL/SQL

The ODCIIndexExchangePartition() exchanges the index storage tables for the index partition being exchanged, with the index storage table for the global domain index.

STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexExchangePartition(
  ia sys.ODCIIndexInfo,
  ia1 sys.ODCIIndexInfo,
  env sys.ODCIEnv)
RETURN NUMBER IS
  stmt VARCHAR2(2000);
  cnum INTEGER;
  junk INTEGER;
BEGIN
  stmt := '';
  dbms_output.put_line('Exchange Partitions');

  -- construct the sql statement
  stmt := 'alter table ' || ia.IndexSchema || '.' || ia.IndexName ||
    '_sbtree exchange partition ' ||   ia.IndexPartition || ' with table ' ||
    ia1.IndexSchema || '.' || ia1.IndexName || '_sbtree';
 
  dbms_output.put_line(stmt);
  execute immediate stmt;
 
  RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END ODCIIndexExchangePartition;

Registering the C Implementation of the ODCIIndexXXX() Methods

After creating the extdemo6l library object for the compiled C methods, you must register the implementations of each of the routines. Example 16-15 demonstrates how to register the ODCIIndexInsert() implementation, Example 16-16 registers the ODCIIndexDelete() implementation, Example 16-17 registers the ODCIIndexUpdate() implementation, Example 16-18 registers the ODCIIndexStart() implementation, Example 16-19 registers the ODCIIndexFetch() implementation, and Example 16-20 registers the ODCIIndexClose() implementation.

  env indicator struct,
  return OCINumber

Defining Additional Structures in C Implementation

The stucts qxiqtim and qciqtin, and the struct qxiqtcx are used for mapping the object type and its null value (demonstrated in Example 16-21) and for keeping state during fetching calls (demonstrated in Example 16-22). These structures are used by the methods described in section "Defining C Methods in the Implementation Body".

The C structs for mapping the ODCI types are defined in the file odci.h. For example, the C struct ODCIIndexInfo is the mapping for the corresponding ODCI object type. The C struct ODCIIndexInfo_ind is the mapping for the null object.

Example 16-21 How to Define Mappings for the Object Type and Its Null Value

We have defined a C struct, qxiqtim, as a mapping for the object type. There is an additional C struct, qxiqtin, for the corresponding null object. The C structs for the object type and its null object can be generated from the Object Type Translator (OTT).

/* The index implementation type is an object type with a single RAW attribute
 * used to store the context key value. 
 * C mapping of the implementation type : */

struct qxiqtim{
  OCIRaw *sctx_qxiqtim;
}; 
typedef struct qxiqtim qxiqtim;

struct qxiqtin{
  short atomic_qxiqtin;
  short scind_qxiqtin;
}; 
typedef struct qxiqtin qxiqtin;

Example 16-22 How to Keep the Scan State During Fetching Calls.

There are a set of OCI handles that must be cached away and retrieved during fetch calls. A C struct, qxiqtcx, is defined to hold all the necessary scan state. This structure is allocated out of OCI_DURATION_STATEMENT memory to ensure that it persists till the end of fetch. After populating the structure with the required info, a pointer to the structure is saved in OCI context. The context is identified by a 4-byte key that is generated by calling an OCI routine. The 4-byte key is stashed away in the scan context - exiting. This object is returned back to the Oracle server and is passed in as a parameter to the next fetch call.

/* The index scan context - should be stored in "statement" duration memory
 * and used by start, fetch and close routines.
 */
struct qxiqtcx
{
  OCIStmt *stmthp;
  OCIDefine *defnp;
  OCIBind *bndp;
  char ridp[19];
}; 
typedef struct qxiqtcx qxiqtcx;

Defining C Methods in the Implementation Body

The following methods have been implemented in the C language. Example 16-23 demonstrates how to implement an error processing routine, Example 16-24 implements ODCIIndexInsert(), Example 16-25 implements ODCIIndexDelete(), Example 16-26 implements ODCIIndexUpdate(), Example 16-27 implements ODCIIndexStart(), Example 16-28 implements ODCIIndexFetch(), and Example 16-29 implements ODCIIndexClose().

Example 16-23 How to Implement a Common Error Processing Routine in C

This function is used to check and process the return code from all OCI routines. It checks the status code and raises an exception in case of errors.

static int qxiqtce(
  OCIExtProcContext *ctx,
  OCIError *errhp,
  sword status)
{
  text errbuf[512];
  sb4 errcode = 0;
  int errnum = 29400;  /* choose some oracle error number */
  int rc = 0;

  switch (status)
  {
    case OCI_SUCCESS: 
      rc = 0;
      break;
    case OCI_ERROR:
      (void) OCIErrorGet((dvoid *)errhp, (ub4)1, (text *)NULL, &errcode,
      errbuf, (ub4)sizeof(errbuf), OCI_HTYPE_ERROR);
      /* Raise exception */
      OCIExtProcRaiseExcpWithMsg(ctx, errnum, errbuf, strlen((char *)errbuf));
      rc = 1;
      break;
    default:
      (void) sprintf((char *)errbuf, "Warning - some error\n");
      /* Raise exception */
      OCIExtProcRaiseExcpWithMsg(ctx, errnum, errbuf, strlen((char *)errbuf));
      rc = 1;
      break;
  }
  return (rc);
}

Example 16-24 How to Implement ODCIIndexInsert() for PSBTREE in C

The insert routine, ODCIIndexInsert(), parses and executes a statement that inserts a new row into the index table. The new row consists of the new value of the indexed column and the rowid that have been passed in as parameters.

Example 16-27 How to Implement ODCIIndexStart() for PSBTREE in C

The start routine performs the setup for an psbtree index scan. The query information in terms of the operator predicate, its arguments, and the bounds on return values are passed in as parameters to this function. The scan context that is shared among the index scan routines is an instance of the type psbtree_im.

This function sets up a cursor that scans the index table. The scan retrieves the stored rowids for the rows in the index table that satisfy the specified predicate. The predicate for the index table is generated based on the operator predicate information that is passed in as parameters. For example, if the operator predicate is of the form eq(col, 'joe') = 1, then the predicate on the index table is set up to be f1 = 'joe'.

This function uses the structs qxiqtim, qxiqtin, and qxiqtcx, which were demonstrated in Example 16-21 and Example 16-22.

Example 16-28 How to Implement ODCIIndexFetch() for PSBTREE in C

The scan context set up by the start routine is passed in as a parameter to the fetch routine. This function first retrieves the 4-byte key from the scan context. The C mapping for the scan context is qxiqtim (see Example 16-21). Next, key is used to look up the OCI context. This gives the memory address of the qxiqtcx structure (see Example 16-22) that holds the OCI handles.

This function returns the next batch of rowids that satisfy the operator predicate. It uses the value of the nrows parameter as the size of the batch. It repeatedly fetches rowids from the open cursor and populates the rowid list. When the batch is full or when there are no more rowids left, the function returns them back to the Oracle server.

Example 16-29 How to Implement ODCIIndexClose() for PSBTREE in C

The scan context set up by the start routine is passed in as a parameter to the close routine. This function first retrieves the 4-byte key from the scan context. The C mapping for the scan context is qxiqtim (see Example 16-21). Next, the OCI context is looked up based on the key. This gives the memory address of the structure that holds the OCI handles, the qxiqtcx structure (see Example 16-22).

This function closes and frees all the OCI handles. It also frees the memory that was allocated in the start routine.

Implementing the Indextype

You should next create the indextype object and specify the list of operators that it supports. In addition, specify the name of the implementation type that implements the ODCIIndexXXX() interface routines. This step is demonstrated in Example 16-30.

Example 16-30 How to Implement the Indextype for PSBTREE

CREATE INDEXTYPE psbtree
FOR
eq(VARCHAR2, VARCHAR2),
lt(VARCHAR2, VARCHAR2),
gt(VARCHAR2, VARCHAR2)
USING psbtree_im
WITH LOCAL RANGE PARTITION
WITH SYSTEM MANAGED STORAGE TABLES

Using PSBTREE

One typical usage scenario is to create a range partitioned table and populate it, as demonstrated in Example 16-31.

Example 16-31 How to Create and Populate a Partitioned Table for PSBTREE

CREATE TABLE t1 (f1 NUMBER, f2 VARCHAR2(200))
PARTITION BY RANGE(f1)
(
  PARTITION p1 VALUES LESS THAN (101),
  PARTITION p2 VALUES LESS THAN (201),
  PARTITION p3 VALUES LESS THAN (301),
  PARTITION p4 VALUES LESS THAN (401)
 );
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (10, 'aaaa');
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (200, 'bbbb');
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (100, 'cccc');
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (300, 'dddd');
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (400, 'eeee');
COMMIT;

You can then create a psbtree index on column f2. The CREATE INDEX statement specifies the indextype that should be used, as demonstrated in Example 16-32.

Example 16-32 How to Create a PSBTREE Index on a Column

CREATE INDEX it1 ON t1(f2) iINDEXTYPE IS psbtree LOCAL 
(PARTITION pe1 PARAMETERS('test1'), PARTITION pe2,
 PARTITION pe3, PARTITION pe4 PARAMETERS('test4')) 
PARAMETERS('test');

To execute a query that uses one of the psbtree operators, use the code in Example 16-33

Example 16-33 How to Use PSBTREE Operators in a Query

SELECT * FROMM t1 WHERE eq(f2, 'dddd') = 1 AND f1>101 ;

The explain plan output for this query should look like this:

OPERATION            OPTIONS                PARTITION_START       PARTITION_STOP
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SELECT STATEMENT
PARTITION RANGE      ITERATOR               2                     4
TABLE ACCESS         BY LOCAL INDEX ROWID   2                     4
DOMAIN INDEX
