Lesson: Introducing Stored Procedures

What Are Stored Procedures?

Named Collections of Transact-SQL Statements

Encapsulate Repetitive Tasks

Accept Input Parameters and Return OutputParameter Values

Return Status Value to Indicate Success or Failure

Five Types (System, Local, Temporary, Remote,and Extended)

Advantages of Stored Procedures

Share Application Logic

Shield Database Schema Details

Provide Security Mechanisms

Improve Performance

Reduce Network Traffic

Reduce Vulnerability to SQL Injection Attacks

Guidelines for Creating Stored Procedures

The ALTER PROCEDURE Statement

Altering Stored Procedures

Include any options in ALTER PROCEDURE Does not affect nested stored procedures

USE NorthwindGOALTER PROC dbo.OverdueOrdersASSELECT CONVERT(char(8), RequiredDate, 1) RequiredDate, CONVERT(char(8), OrderDate, 1) OrderDate, OrderID, CustomerID, EmployeeID FROM OrdersWHERE RequiredDate < GETDATE() AND ShippedDate IS NullORDER BY RequiredDateGO

USE NorthwindGOALTER PROC dbo.OverdueOrdersASSELECT CONVERT(char(8), RequiredDate, 1) RequiredDate, CONVERT(char(8), OrderDate, 1) OrderDate, OrderID, CustomerID, EmployeeID FROM OrdersWHERE RequiredDate < GETDATE() AND ShippedDate IS NullORDER BY RequiredDateGO

The DROP PROCEDURE Statement

Dropping Stored Procedures

Execute the sp_depends stored procedure to determine whether objects depend on the stored procedure

Procedure information is removed from the sysobjects and syscomments system tables

Required Permission

Procedure owner Members of db_owner, db_ddladmin, and sysadmin roles

USE NorthwindGODROP PROC dbo.OverdueOrdersGO

USE NorthwindGODROP PROC dbo.OverdueOrdersGO

Stored Procedure Execution

Executing a Stored Procedure by Itself

Executing a Stored Procedure Within anINSERT Statement

EXEC OverdueOrdersEXEC OverdueOrders

INSERT INTO CustomersEXEC EmployeeCustomerINSERT INTO CustomersEXEC EmployeeCustomer

Input Parameters

Validate All Incoming ParameterValues First

Provide Appropriate Default Values and IncludeNull Checks

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.[Year to Year Sales] @BeginDate DateTime = Null, @EndDate DateTime = Null ASIF @BeginDate IS Null SET @BeginDate = dateadd(yy,-1,GetDate())

IF @EndDate IS Null SET @EndDate = GetDate()

IF Datediff(dd,@BeginDate,@EndDate) > 365 BEGIN RAISERROR('The maximum timespan allowed for this report is one year.', 14, 1) RETURN END

SELECT O.ShippedDate,O.OrderID,OS.Subtotal, DATENAME(yy,ShippedDate) AS YearFROM ORDERS O INNER JOIN [Order Subtotals] OS ON O.OrderID = OS.OrderIDWHERE O.ShippedDate BETWEEN @BeginDate AND @EndDate

Methods of Setting Parameter Values

Passing Values by Parameter Name

Passing Values by Position

EXEC AddCustomer 'ALFKI2', 'Alfreds Futterkiste', 'Maria Anders', 'Sales Representative', 'Obere Str. 57', 'Berlin', NULL, '12209', 'Germany', '030-0074321'

Stored Procedure Recompile

Recompile When

Stored procedure returns widely varying result sets A new index is added to an underlying table The parameter value is atypical

Recompile by Using

CREATE PROCEDURE [WITH RECOMPILE] EXECUTE [WITH RECOMPILE] sp_recompile

Best Practices

Dynamic SQL in Stored Procedures

Dynamic Search Conditions

The IN Clause

Administrative Functions

SELECT @str = 'SELECT * FROM CUSTOMERS WHERE 1=1' IF LEN(@WhereCondition) > 0 SELECT @str = @str + @WhereCondition

EXEC sp_executesql @str

SELECT @str = 'SELECT * FROM CUSTOMERS WHERE 1=1' IF LEN(@WhereCondition) > 0 SELECT @str = @str + @WhereCondition

EXEC sp_executesql @str

SELECT @SQL = 'SELECT ProductID, ProductName, UnitPrice FROM Products WHERE ProductID IN (' + (@ProductIDs) + ')'

SELECT @SQL = 'SELECT ProductID, ProductName, UnitPrice FROM Products WHERE ProductID IN (' + (@ProductIDs) + ')'

SQL Injection

A Technique to Inject SQL Command as an Input

Caused by Passing User Input Directly to SQL Code

How to Avoid SQL Injection

Never trust user input Avoid dynamic SQL Execute with least privilege Store secrets securely Exceptions should divulge minimal information

Extended Stored Procedures

Characteristics of Extended Stored Procedures:

Programmed using open data services API Can include C and Microsoft Visual C++ features Can contain multiple functions Can be called from a client or SQL server Can be added to the master database only

EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'dir c:\'EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'dir c:\'

Performance Diagnosis Tools

Windows 2000 System Monitor

Object: SQL Server: Cache Manager Object: SQL Statistics

SQL Profiler

Can monitor events Can test each statement in a stored procedure
