Problem description: | |
CLPPlus may behave erratically when the substitution character "&" immediately follows a capital "O". Depending upon the usage it may report a syntax error, or generate incorrect output. For example: SQL> DEFINE SYS_DATE=20121012 SQL> show escape escape OFF SQL> spool SERVICEINFO&&SYS_DATE..txt SQL> select 1 from dual; 1 ----------- 1 SQL> spool off; SQL> host dir SERVICE* Volume in drive D is Data Volume Serial Number is 18D0-8D0B Directory of D:\ 10/30/2012 01:09 PM 51 SERVICEINF&20121012.txt Note the above filename. The commands should create 'SERVICEINFO20121012.txt' | |
