• Oracle - Return shortest string value in a set of rows

  - by Sridhar

  Hi, I'm trying to write a query that returns the shortest string value in the column. For ex: if ColumnA has values ABCDE, ZXDR, ERC, the query should return "ERC". I've written the following query, but I'm wondering if there is any better way to do this? BTW, the query should return a single value. select distinct ColumnA from ( select ColumnA, rank() over (order by length(ColumnA), ColumnA) len_rank from TableA where ColumnB = 'XXX' ) where len_rank <= 1 Thank you.

• Does -localizedDescription of NSError return the actual localized string, or does it return a key fo

  - by mystify

  Must I do something like this? NSString *errorDescription = [error localizedDescription]; NSString *errorInfoStr = NSLocalizedString(errorDescription, nil); Or do I use NSLocalizedString already when populating the userInfo dictionary with the NSLocalizedDescriptionKey key and value? So the value for that is not actually a key for NSLocalizedString, but it is the actual localized string ready to show up on screen?

• load balance timeout SQL connection string

  - by george9170

  It seems that if there is a sql memory leak somewhere and you dont have time to find it you can use the load balance timeout option in a sql connection string to destory the connection after x seconds. Am i right in assuming I can set the load balance time out to 30-40 seconds and then hunt for the leak latter, while in the mean time the leak will not affect my application too much.
