今天遇到一个错误提示:ORA-06502:PL/SQL :numberic or value error: character string buffer
too small,一般对应的中文信息为:ORA-06502: PL/SQL: 数字或值错误 :字符串缓冲区太小。仔细检查调试过程中才发现是开发人员定义了一个变量,但是在脚本里面赋予了该变量超过其长度的值。结果就报这个错误。我习惯总结每一个遇到的错误信息,既有利于学习、总结知识,也方便以后遇到此类问题能够及时给出解决方法。
如果执行oerr ora 06502命令,没有提及详细原因(Cause)以及解决方法(Action)。这个估计是出现这类错误的场景太多了的缘故。
$ oerr ora 06502
06502, 00000, "PL/SQL: numeric or value
error%s"
// *Cause:
// *Action:
在官方文档http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e25519/datatypes.htm,我看到了关于ORA-06502的错误的一些出现场景。非常有意思。有兴趣的最好直接阅读源文档。
1: 赋值或插入超过长度的值。
Assigning or Inserting Too-Long Values
If the value that you assign to a character
variable is longer than the maximum size of the variable, an error occurs. For
example:
1: DECLARE
2:
3: c VARCHAR2(3 CHAR);
4:
5: BEGIN
6:
7: c := 'abc ';
8:
9: END;
10:
11: /
12:
13: Result:
14:
15: DECLARE
16:
17: *

2: 违反了SIMPLE_INTEGER Subtype约束
PLS_INTEGER and its subtypes can be
implicitly converted to these data types:
·
· CHAR
·
· VARCHAR2
·
· NUMBER
·
· LONG
All of the preceding data types except LONG,
and all PLS_INTEGER subtypes, can be implicitly converted to PLS_INTEGER.
A PLS_INTEGER value can be implicitly
converted to a PLS_INTEGER subtype only if the value does not violate a
constraint of the subtype. For example, casting the PLS_INTEGER value NULL to
the SIMPLE_INTEGER subtype raises an exception, as Example 3-5 shows.
Example 3-5 Violating Constraint of
SIMPLE_INTEGER Subtype
1: DECLARE
2:
3: a SIMPLE_INTEGER := 1;
4:
5: b PLS_INTEGER := NULL;
6:
7: BEGIN
8:
9: a := b;
10:
11: END;
12:
13: /
14:
15: Result:

17: DECLARE

3: User-Defined Constrained Subtype Detects Out-of-Range
Values
Example 3-7 User-Defined Constrained
Subtype Detects Out-of-Range Values
1: DECLARE
2:
3: SUBTYPE Balance IS NUMBER(8,2);
4:
5: checking_account Balance;
6:
7: savings_account Balance;
8:
9: BEGIN
10:
11: checking_account := 2000.00;
12:
13: savings_account := 1000000.00;
14:
15: END;

4: Implicit Conversion Between Constrained Subtypes with
Same Base Type
A constrained
subtype can be implicitly converted to its base type, but the base type can be
implicitly converted to the constrained subtype only if the value does not
violate a constraint of the subtype (see Example 3-5).
A constrained subtype can be implicitly
converted to another constrained subtype with the same base type only if the
source value does not violate a constraint of the target subtype.
Example 3-8 Implicit Conversion Between
Constrained Subtypes with Same Base Type
1: DECLARE
2:
3: SUBTYPE Digit IS PLS_INTEGER RANGE 0..9;
4:
5: SUBTYPE Double_digit IS PLS_INTEGER RANGE 10..99;
6:
7: SUBTYPE Under_100 IS PLS_INTEGER RANGE 0..99;
8:
9: d Digit := 4;
10:
11: dd Double_digit := 35;
12:
13: u Under_100;
14:
15: BEGIN
16:
17: u := d; -- Succeeds; Under_100 range includes Digit range
18:
19: u := dd; -- Succeeds; Under_100 range includes Double_digit range
20:
21: dd := d; -- Raises error; Double_digit range does not include Digit range
22:
23: END;
24:
25: /
26:
27: Result:
28:
29: DECLARE
30:
31: *
32:
33: ERROR at line 1:

5: Implicit Conversion Between Subtypes with Base Types
in Same Family
Example 3-9 Implicit Conversion Between
Subtypes with Base Types in Same Family

4:
5: SUBTYPE Text IS VARCHAR2(15);
6:
7: verb Word := 'run';
8:
9: sentence1 Text;
10:
11: sentence2 Text := 'Hurry!';
12:
13: sentence3 Text := 'See Tom run.';
14:
15: BEGIN
16:
17: sentence1 := verb; -- 3-character value, 15-character limit
18:
19: verb := sentence2; -- 5-character value, 6-character limit
20:
21: verb := sentence3; -- 12-character value, 6-character limit
