Question

I'm trying to do a notification message when doing a process on submit but is not working
DECLARE
l_sendto NUMBER := :P22_SEND_TO;
l_user_groups NUMBER := :P22_USER_GROUP;
l_media NUMBER := :P22_MEDIA;
l_usersessionid NUMBER := :APP_SESSION;
SINGLE_USER CONSTANT number :=0;
l_aux NUMBER;
e EXCEPTION;
BEGIN
--verify if user
select userid into l_aux FROM SURV_TEMP_SENDTO WHERE userid = l_user_groups and usersessionid= l_usersessionid and rownum =1;
IF l_aux > 0 THEN
RAISE e;
ELSE
IF l_sendto = SINGLE_USER THEN
--if selected all types of medias of one user
INSERT INTO SURV_TEMP_SENDTO (userid, mediatypeid, usersessionid)
(SELECT zm.userid, zm.mediatypeid, l_usersessionid
FROM z.media zm, Z.media_type zmt
WHERE zmt.mediatypeid = zm.mediatypeid
AND zm.userid = l_user_groups);
apex_application.g_print_success_message := 'Inserting OK';
END IF;
EXCEPTION
WHEN e THEN
apex_application.g_global_notification:= 'Error inserting values';
--apex_application.g_print_success_message := 'Error inserting values';
END;
In the raise EXCEPTION it doesn't show any msg but if he enters the ELSE it writes the success msg.
Anyone know why it doesn't work in EXCEPTION?

Answer 1

In the ELSE you are using g_print_success_message. That will work in the EXCEPTION section too. When I tried it, g_global_notification didn't work in either main body or exception section, but only appeared if an exception was raised and not handled - I don't know why though.
