Re: Getting the name of currently executing sql script in sql*plus

Actually, using dbms_application_info is exactly what SQL*Plus already
does for you (which just shows that it was indeed a good idea!) -
 all you have to do is read the information.

I've created driver_script.sql as follows:

--------------------------
set serveroutput on
@one
@two
@three
--------------------------

three.sql as follows:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
declare
  module_name varchar2(100);
  action_name varchar2(100);
BEGIN
  dbms_application_info.read_module(module_name, action_name);
  dbms_output.put_line('module name: ' || module_name);
  dbms_output.put_line('script: ' || substr(module_name, 1 +
instr(module_name, ' ')));
END;
/
@four
@five
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and all the others on this pattern (here, one.sql):

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
declare
  module_name varchar2(100);
  action_name varchar2(100);
BEGIN
  dbms_application_info.read_module(module_name, action_name);
  dbms_output.put_line('module name: ' || module_name);
  dbms_output.put_line('script: ' || substr(module_name, 1 +
instr(module_name, ' ')));
END;
/
select 'one' from dual;
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here it goes:

SQL> @driver_script
module name: 02@ one.sql
script: one.sql

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.


'ON
---
one

module name: 02@ two.sql
script: two.sql

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.


'TW
---
two

module name: 02@ three.sql
script: three.sql

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

module name: 03@ four.sql
script: four.sql

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.


'FOU
----
four

module name: 03@ five.sql
script: five.sql

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.


'FIV
----
five


You'll notice that you have the nesting depth before the script name -
something that can also be useful.
