Is such an option / similar one available in MS SQL Server ? -----Original Message----- From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2004 7:37 PM To: oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: process row after periodic wait Sounds like a good job for advanced queueing to me. Instead of inserting the row to a table, add it to a queue. The unrelated service pulls rows from the queue where they are now unavailable to other processes. I think you can put a 30 second delay in the queue, so that you can read rows that are still in the queue after 30 seconds, and insert into the other table. -----Original Message----- From: VIVEK_SHARMA [mailto:VIVEK_SHARMA@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2004 12:24 AM To: oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: process row after periodic wait Folks, How may the following (in CAPITALS) be implemented? STEPS:- 1) a row inserts into a particular Table 2) WAIT 30 seconds for the row to be processed by some unrelated service 3) After 30 seconds CHECK if the row has been processed 4) If not processed , MOVE the row into another Table NOTE - Multiple row Inserts occur at differing points of time, some may even occur concurrently Thanks ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html ----------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html ----------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
