Hi Group,
I have a database which has around 2000 SPs. I dont have relationships
defind in the database as its a maintainence project so now I want to
recomiple each SP so to know that the SPs are in correct state. One
way is to use sp_recomiple system stored procedure but it will only
recomiple the SP when the SP is called. I want the SPs to get
recompiled and report me errors in the SPs.
I dont want to change the SP by WITH RECOMPILE option since that will
also mean changing all SPs. and every other option i found only works
when the SP is called. I cannot write EXEC <SP NAME> since it means
providing parameters for the SPs and its a very tidious task.
Can anyone suggest me some easier way to do it ??
Thanks in advance
Sunil
Your desciption is a little unclear, but I suspect that maybe you want to
recreate the procedures to check that the syntax is valid, not recompile or
execute them - those are three different things. If so, one option is to
script all the procedures to a file using Enterprise Manager, then run the
file (preferably in a test database), and review the output. You could use
osql.exe to do this, and send the output to a file for easier viewing.
If I've misunderstood you, could you explain exactly what you mean by "in a
correct state"? Also, it would be useful to know which version of SQL Server
you have, as deferred name resolution means that your stored procedures may
be (re)created successfully, but will not execute due to missing objects.
