Error: Executing OWB Scripts Outside the OWB Tool

Question

We aim to extract OWB scripts (ddls, pl/sql, etc) and run them outside of the OWB tool in Beta and Production.
Thus far, we’re able to execute ddls and compile OWB generated pl/sql procedures. We’re encountering errors on all attempts to execute the pl/sql code outside of OWB.
Package created.
Package body created.
SQL> execute RECORDED_MEDIA_MAP;
BEGIN RECORDED_MEDIA_MAP; END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
PLS-00221: 'RECORDED_MEDIA_MAP' is not a procedure or is undefined
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
Based on previous discussions with Oracle Sales Rep., we were under the impression that this could be done.
Can OWB generated pl/sql execute outside of the tool? If so, what are the steps?
Thanks,

Answer 1

OWB generates mapping as package of procedures. This package has the only external procedure/function (depend on OWB version: 9.2.0.4 - function, prev. releases - procedure).
So, mapping that you have deployed could be executed by the following code (as for 9.2.0.4 version of OWB):
DECLARE
l_res NUMBER;
l_env WB_RT_MAPAUDIT.WB_RT_NAME_VALUES;
BEGIN
l_res := MAP_PACKAGE.MAIN(l_env);
END;
