Function call in procedure within Package Body

I am a novice in PL/SQL so that I can't find out where the problem is. I am testing a function call in procedure within a Package Body.
But the PL/SQL Complier doesn't compile the package body but I don't know what I do wrong. Plz let me know how to call a function in procedure within a Package Body?
Here are the Packaget test programs..
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE manage_students
IS
PROCEDURE find_sname;
PROCEDURE find_test;
PROCEDURE find_test_called;
FUNCTION GET_LASTMT
RETURN SEQUENCE_TEST.SEQ_NO%TYPE;
END manage_students;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY manage_students AS
v_max_nbr SEQUENCE_TEST.SEQ_NO%TYPE;
PROCEDURE find_sname
IS
BEGIN
BEGIN
SELECT MAX(SEQ_NO)
INTO v_max_nbr
from SEQUENCE_TEST;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('MAX NUMBER is : '||v_max_nbr);
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS
THEN DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Error in finding student_id: ');
RETURN;
END;
COMMIT;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS
THEN DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Error in finding student_id: ');
END find_sname;

IS
BEGIN
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('MAX NUMBER Called from another procedure : '||v_max_nbr);
EXCEPTION

RETURN;
END;
COMMIT;

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
You'll find that there are a lot of people willing to help you.
Are you willing to help them? Whenever you have a problem, post enough for people to re-create the problem themselves. That includes CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for all the tables you use.
Error messages are very helpful. Post the complete error message you're getting, including line number. (It looks like your EXCEPTION sections aren't doing much, except hiding the real errors. That's a bad programming practice, but probably not causing your present problem - just a future one.)
Never post unformatted code. Indent the code to show the extent of each procedure, and the blocks within each one.
When posting formatted text on this site, type these 6 characters:
\(all small letters, inside curly brackets) before and after each section of formatted test, to preserve the spacing.
For example, the procedure find_test_called would be a lot easier to read like this:PROCEDURE find_test_called
IS
BEGIN
     BEGIN
          V_max := Manage_students.GET_LASTMT;
          DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('MAX_NUMBER :' || V_max);
     EXCEPTION
          WHEN OTHERS
          THEN
               DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('Error in finding student_id: ');
               RETURN      NULL;
     END;
     COMMIT;
EXCEPTION
     WHEN OTHERS
     THEN
          DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('Error in finding student_id: ');
END find_test_called;
It's much easier to tell from the code above that you're trying to return NULL from a procedure. Only functions can return anything (counting NULL); procedures can have RETURN statements, but that single word"RETURN;" is the entire statement.

Can we call a procedure in select statement?

Can we call a procedure in select statement?

Hi,
Raghu_appsdba wrote:
Can we call a procedure in select statement?No. You can call functions, but not procedures.
If the procedure does not change the database state (for example, it doesn't update any tables), then you can wrap it in a function, or re-write it as a function.
Here's an example of wrapping.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION fun_x (in_txt IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
BEGIN
        proc_y (in_txt);
        RETURN in_txt
END     fun_x;

How can I use the procedures and functions in my library

hello, all
I have a pl/sql library MYLIB.pld, MYLIB.pll and MYLIB.plx.
How can I invoke procedures and functions there in JDeveloper?
Thanks.
Damon

I am indeed using ADF BC to re-develop the oracle application.
Here is my situation:
We have an oracle form application.
Our objective is to try to re-use the existing sources in the form application as much as possible:
1. tons of procedures and functions in a pl/sql library(a file with extension name portfolioLib.pll or portfolioLib.plx);
2. tons of form-level triggers, data-block triggers and item-triggers;
3. tons of database stored procedures and triggers;
After doing a research on JDeveloper, we decide to use ADF Swing+ADF BC to re-develop the application.
My opinion for the above three kinds of sources in our form application is:
for 1: we try to move most of procedures and functions into database(except Form build-in);
for 2: we try to wrap those triggers in a SQLJ class;
for 3: we try to call database procedures and functions with PreparedStatment or CallableStatement;
I just do a test on a post-query trigger on a data-block:
I created a sqlj file, named testSQLJ.sqlj in the test.view package;
I tried to call it in createInstanceFromResultSet of testDeptVOImpl.java which is test.model package,
I was told that testSQLJ cannot be found there. why?
How can I call some classes from test.view package in some classes of test.model?
I read some documents about how to deal with post-query trigger in JDeveloper: create a view with SQL statement, but it seems that it does not support pl/sql statement there.
Can you give me some opinion about the above stuff?
I really appreciate your help.

Can i create any procedure or function inside a oracle reserve package?

Hi!
Can i create any procedure or function inside a oracle reserve package. Suppose, I want to create a function called x in the dbms_output package. Can i do that? Or can i extend the features of this package and create/derived a function from it like we extend any class in JAVA. I'm not sure - whether this is at all possible. I'll be waiting for your reply.
Thanks in advance.
Satyaki De.

No, but you can write a wrapper package and use that instead of using the Built-In package directly. So, instead of calling DBMS_OUTPUT, you call your own Package.

Error while using DB Adapter in BPEL[Calling a procedure or function]

Hi
I am getting Error while executing the BPEL Process.
1) I created a BPEL Process which uses a DB Adapter. I am using call a procedure or function. My Procedure is shown below. It takes a string a s input parameter and executes that string. I have used an assign activity to assign the input string.
Procedure
create or replace
PROCEDURE SP_QUERY(s_string in varchar2)
AS
l_sql_stmt varchar2(1000);
BEGIN
l_sql_stmt := s_string;
-- dbms_output.put_line( l_sql_stmt );
EXECute immediate l_sql_stmt;
commit;
dbms_output.put_line('Executed' );
-- if SQLCODE = 0 then
--retCodeString := 'OK';
--end if;
END;
I gave input string as "select * from tab", I have also tried a insert statement to a table in which its present in this database. But i am getting the following error.
<3 Jun, 2013 9:42:25 AM IST> <Error> <oracle.webservices.service> <OWS-04115>
Whats the Issue? Is the issue with the procedure or the BPEL process? Please help me out. I am stuck in this

Hi,
According to your message you have selected your procedure, but looks like the procedure is not having any reply or response parameter with it.
Have you executed the procedure separately from SQL editor and see whether you are able to get the response or not ?
If you get response, then how many columns are you getting ?
Check the column names are matching with the schema file generated by adapter and see whether those column names are available as elements in .xsd file.
Example provided below..
In the below link, check the section "9.7 Stored Procedure and Function Support"
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/integration.1111/e10231/adptr_db.htm#CHDFBBCD

Without calling stored procedure or functions from database

Hi,
I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.5.0.
=>How to do PL/SQL procedures and functions in ADF without calling stored procedure or function from DB?

S, PL/SQL procedures and functions are done in Application Module class or in managed bean..By calling the stored procedures or functions from DB.
But I am asking how to do if DB doesn't have any procedures,triggers and functions.

How to call plsql procedure or function and getting back the string?

Hi Everyone,
i am using Jdev 11.1.1.5.0.
i have a requirement to call plsql procedure or function from my backing bean java file and get back the returned value from the procedure or function.
what piece of simple code i need to write in my backing bean?
please suggest.
Thanks.

As always you write the method to call he pl/sql in the application module, expose this method to the client (so you see it in the datacontroll) then create a operation binding to the method and call this operation from the bean. The result you get by operation.getResult();
You should never call pl/sql from the bean directly!
The doc shows how to call the procedure from an application module: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/web.1111/b31974/bcadvgen.htm#sm0297

OracleCallableStatement - can I access the procedure or function name?

I have an observer that, after preparing a statement, before execution, I need to know the stored procedure name of the prepareStatement (and go do an action, if necessary). I couldn't find a var in either OracleCallableStatement or OraclePreparedStatement that has this information, only the 'call' string, ie: { call myproc(?,?)}. For example (and I'm simply stating fact, not displaying preference :-) , SQLServerCallableStatement has a procedureName var (completely undocumented in their API) that I can access once the call has been prepared.
Any ideas?
THANKS!

You can still use PL/SQL anonymous blocks to execute stored procedures and functions. In fact, it has its advantages, like being able to use named parameter association. However, your syntax is incorrect. It should be
... prepareCall("BEGIN <procedure name>(x=>?, y=>?, ...); END;") for a stored procedure
... prepareCall("BEGIN ? := <function_name>(x=>, y=>?, ...); END;") for a stored functionYou still do a java.sql.Connection.prepareCall(...) using this syntax. However, this returns a java.sql.CallableStatement. A call to prepareStatement(...) returns a java.sql.PreparedStatement which may not work. I know no way of getting the actual procedure or function name.

How can I call a custom javascript function when clicking on cfgrid cell.

I would like to call a custom javascript function when
clicking on a cell in an cfgrid (of html format). The closest thing
I can find is to use the HREF="" attribute, but it doesn't seem to
work with javascript inside it.
Simple example:
<cfgridcolumn name="Foo" header="Foo"
href="javascript:customFunction(#ID#);">
Do I need to tap into the underlying Ext JS funtionality? If
so, where can I start?
Thanks!

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to hide/show list columns based on specify the permission for Users, SharePoint Groups or Active Directory Groups.

Can we call a procedure defined in AM from a procedure in AM itself?

Dear Members,
I just want to know is it a oracle standard way to call a procedure defined in AM from another procedure defined in the same AM. For example
AM Code:_
public void proc1()
System.out.println("IAM IN PROCEDURE-1");
public void proc2()
proc1;
Kindly please let me know whether the above coding style is as per the standards or not.
Many thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Arun Reddy D.

Arun,
As Ravi mentioned this way of calling the method is correct.
proc1() could be reusable thats why you are calling again.
Some times few methods(procedure) is common use across the module.
In that case you can have the method in a commonAM and you extend the commonAM in all your AMs
that will help you to call in all the AM having a central place to call.
Thanks,
With regards,
Kali.
