Hexadecimal sequence in Oracle
Question
I would like to generate 16 char length hex decimal value as sequence. My database is Oracle and would like to know is it possible to do so? I checked the SEQUENCE in Oracle but I think its only for numericals.
Any idea would be great help.
Thanks in advance,
Abdel Olakara
Solution
Yes, Oracle sequences are integers.
In order to use a sequence to generate a 16 character length hexadecimal value, you need to use TO_CHAR:
TO_CHAR(your_sequence.NEXTVAL,'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX')
