Oracle SQL Procedure - Bad Bind Variable in REGEX












0















I have an Oracle SQL procedure which is giving Bad bind variable 'VNAME1' error on compilation. The idea is to pass the value of item.tempid2 in the REGEX query.



The procedure below:



   DECLARE
anyexists varchar2(10);
CURSOR c_length IS SELECT SUBSTR(first_name,1,1)||substr(last_name) as
tempid2, user_id, Custom_Unique_Name FROM PV_USERS;
vname1 varchar(20);
exec vname1:= NULL;
BEGIN
FOR item in c_length
LOOP
EXIT WHEN c_length%notfound;
vname1:= item.tempid2;
SELECT COUNT(*) INTO anyexists from (SELECT
Custom_Unique_Name from PV_USERS
WHERE REGEXP_LIKE (Custom_Unique_Name, '^'|| :vname1 ||
'[^A-Za-z][0-9]*')
AND user_id <> item.user_id);
END LOOP;
END;

    the vname variable is already a bind variable, so there is no need for the : in front of it in the regexp_like.

You should add a USING vname1 clause at the end of your SELECT statement.

    That would only be true if the select statement was dynamic sql being run via execute immediate. It's not, it's being run as a static statement.
