Example of IN OUT parameter in a procedure

Hi All,
Can anyone please send me a procedure using inout parameter, I know about IN Parameter and OUT Parameter, but I don't know about INOUT parameter in pl/sql.
please send some example.
thanks

Cannot get OUT parameter from stored procedure

Hi,
I am new to stored procedure programming. I wrote a simple java stored procedure as follows:
package fvt;
import java.sql.*;
import java.io.*;
public class FVTProcedures
extends COM.ibm.db2.app.StoredProc {
public void addRecord(int id, String name, int status)
throws SQLException {
java.sql.Statement stmt = null;
java.sql.Connection con = null;
PrintWriter pw = null;
try {
status =3;
pw = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter("c:/temp/fvtproc.txt"));
pw.println("starting...");
// get connection
con =getConnection();
pw.println("Got connection");
stmt = con.createStatement();
stmt.execute("INSERT INTO cmtest (id, name) values (" + id + ",'"+name+"')");
pw.println("Inserted the record");
if (!con.getAutoCommit()) {
con.commit();
pw.println("Committed the connection");
catch (SQLException sqle) {
pw.println(sqle.getMessage());
catch (Exception e) {
pw.println(e.getMessage());
finally {
status =2;
pw.close();
try {
if (stmt != null) {
stmt.close();
catch (SQLException sqle) {}
try {
if (con != null) {
con.close();
catch (SQLException sqle) {}
Then I use the following sql command to create this stored procedure, especially register status as OUT parameter.
CREATE PROCEDURE addRecord (IN id INT, IN name VARCHAR(20), OUT status INTEGER)
FENCED LANGUAGE JAVA EXTERNAL NAME 'fvt.FVTProcedures!addRecord' PARAMETER
STYLE DB2GENERAL
My java program calling this stored proc is as follows:
import java.sql.*;
import javax.sql.*;
public class CallableStmtTest {
     COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2ConnectionPoolDataSource ds = null;
     public static void main(String args[]) {
          CallableStmtTest dt = new CallableStmtTest();
          try {
               dt.test();
          } catch (Exception e) {
               e.printStackTrace(System.out);
     public CallableStmtTest() {
          ds = new COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2ConnectionPoolDataSource();
          ds.setUser("username");
          ds.setPassword("password");
          ds.setDatabaseName("database");
public void test() {
java.sql.Connection conn = null;
CallableStatement cs = null;
String sql = "CALL ADDRECORD(?, ?, ?)" ;
try {
conn = ds.getPooledConnection().getConnection();
conn.setAutoCommit(false);
System.out.println("Got the connection");
cs = conn.prepareCall( sql ) ; /* con is the connection */
System.out.println("Callable statement is prepared");
cs.registerOutParameter(3, java.sql.Types.INTEGER);
cs.setInt(1, 1001 );
cs.setString(2, "1001");
cs.execute() ;
System.out.println("Callable statement is executed, return status: "+cs.getInt(3));
conn.commit();
catch(SQLException sqle) {
sqle.printStackTrace();
finally {
try {
if (cs!=null) {cs.close();}
catch (SQLException sqle1) {
try {
if (conn!=null) {conn.close();}
catch (SQLException sqle1) {
However, the out put is always
Callable statement is executed, return status: 0
while i expect to be
Callable statement is executed, return status: 2
Can anyone tell me what's wrong with that?
thansk,
JST

public void addRecord(int id, String name, int status)
throws SQLException {
status =3;In regular java you are never going to see this value (3) outside of that method. Java doesn't work that way.
So unless java inside the DB works really differently from regular java, you are going to have to pass something else.

Out parameter in Procedure

Hello,
I have a doubt. Can anyone plz tell me.
How can I catch the out parameter from a procedure in my JDBC code.
Thanks
RD

By "procedure", I assume you mean a stored procedure. This is done by using a CallableStatement, and appropriately setting the input and output parameters. This should be relatively straightforward if you alreadt know PreparedStatement; if you don't, you should learn because it's more efficient, easier and more secure.
there is a good example of using a CallableStatement with output parameters in reply 9 of this forum thread:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=48&threadID=641810
Note that there's a major bug in that example, which is corrected a few postings down in the thread.

Call PL/SQL Procedure in/out parameter

Hi !!
I need some help please.
This example illustrates an IN parameter:
OADBTransaction txn = getDBTransaction();
CallableStatement cs =
txn.createCallableStatement("begin dbms_application_info.set_module(:1, :2);
end;");
try{
cs.setString(1, module);
cs.setString(2, action);
cs.execute();
cs.close();
catch (SQLException sqle){
try { cs.close } catch (Exception(e) {}
throw OAException.wrapperException(sqle);
This example illustrates an OUT parameter:
DBTransaction txn = getDBTransaction();
String sql = "BEGIN :1 := FND_MESSAGE.GET; END;";
CallableStatement cs = txn.createCallableStatement(sql, 1);
String messageBuffer = "";
try {
((OracleCallableStatement)cs.registerOutParameter(1, Types.VARCHAR, 0, 2000);
cs.execute();
messageBuffer = cs.getString(1);
cs.close();
catch (SQLException sqle) {
try { cs.close } catch (Exception(e) {}
throw OAException.wrapperException(sqle);
but, How to call a procedure with an IN/OUT parameter ?
Thanks in advance....
Jairo

Thank u for the reply.
I thought that, thanks for confirm it; I also found on metalink some examples:
https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:709875901216485933::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,118821.1,1,1,1,helvetica
Doc ID: Note:118821.1
// Call a procedure with an IN/OUT prameter
CallableStatement procinout = conn.prepareCall ("begin procinout (?); end;");
procinout.registerOutParameter (1, Types.VARCHAR);
procinout.setString (1, "testing");
procinout.execute ();
dumpTestTable (conn);
System.out.println
("Out argument is: " + procinout.getString (1));
I've been making some test following that example, I created a procedure that accepts an in-out parameter:
OADBTransactionImpl dbTx = (OADBTransactionImpl)getTransaction();
String sql = "xgpv_utl_cot.test(:1); end;";
cs = dbTx.createCallableStatement(sql, OADBTransactionImpl.DEFAULT);
try{ // call statement
cs.setString(1, "dummyString");
cs.registerOutParameter(1, OracleTypes.VARCHAR);
cs.execute();
     String status = ocs.getString(11);
if ( !("1".equals(status)) ){
     ... do someting
but when I call it I get this error:

Call stored procedure with OUT parameter

Hello,
I have created a short-lived process. Within this process I am using the "FOUNDATION > JDBC > Call Stored Procedure" operation to call an Oracle procedure. This procedure has 3 parameters, 2 IN and 1 OUT parameter.
The procedure is being executed correctly. Both IN parameters receive the correct values but I am unable to get the OUT parameter's value in my process.
Rewriting the procedure as a function gives me an ORA-01460 since one of the parameters contains XML (>32K) so this is not option...
Has someone been able to call a stored procedure with an OUT parameter?
Regards,
Nico

Object is Foundation, Execute Script
This is for a query, you can change to a stored procedure call. Pull the value back in the Java code then put into the process variable.
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
import javax.sql.DataSource;
import java.sql.*;
PreparedStatement stmt = null;
Connection conn = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
try {
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource) ctx.lookup("java:IDP_DS");
conn = ds.getConnection();
stmt = conn.prepareStatement("select FUBAR from TB_PT_FUBAR where PROCESS_INSTANCE_ID=?");
stmt.setLong(1, patExecContext.getProcessDataLongValue("/process_data/@inputID"));
rs = stmt.executeQuery();
rs.next();
patExecContext.setProcessDataStringValue("/process_data/outData", rs.getString(1));

Hi i want to use boolean type in a procedure as out parameter !!

Hi
I need to use Boolean type as out parameter in my procedure which return true if the SELECT query in procedure returns any row otherwise it should return false
please HELP !!

I need to use Boolean type as out parameter in my procedure which return true if the SELECT query in procedure returns any row otherwise it should return false
Sounds like basic PL/SQL stuff.
What problem are you experiencing?
Are you looking for something like this?
create or replace procedure check_emp (p_empno in number, p_result out boolean) is
dummy pls_integer;
begin
select 1
into dummy
from scott.emp
where empno = p_empno;
p_result := true;
exception
when no_data_found then
    p_result := false;
end;
SQL> declare
2    emp_exists boolean;
3 begin
4    check_emp(7839, emp_exists);
5    if emp_exists then
6      dbms_output.put_line('Employee exists');
7    else
8      dbms_output.put_line('Employee does not exist');
9    end if;

Procedure with out parameter in if-then-else condition

Hi,
I want to fetch the out parameter of a procedure inside another procedure that has if-then-else condition.
<<Proc1_start>>
if ..
then <<proc2_>> --- with out parameter
end if;
<<proc1_end>>
How to do this...
Thanks.

Ummm, the same way you would do it anywhere else?
Declare variable in proc1 to hold the output of proc2 and then call proc2.

Need an Example for How to call a Stored Procedure using DBAdapter

Hi
I am trying to invoke a stored procedure in Oracle Database using DB Adapter. I have successfully invoked and when i try to run it i got the following error.
oracle.sysman.emSDK.webservices.wsdlapi.SoapTestException: Client received SOAP Fault from server : Exception occured when binding was invoked.
Exception occured during invocation of JCA binding: "JCA Binding execute of Reference operation 'ExecuteScript' failed due to:

Check to ensure that the API is defined in the database and that the parameters match the signature of the API.
This exception is considered not retriable, likely due to a modelling mistake.
To classify it as retriable instead add property nonRetriableErrorCodes with value "-917" to your deployment descriptor (i.e. weblogic-ra.xml).
To auto retry a retriable fault set these composite.xml properties for this invoke: jca.retry.interval, jca.retry.count, and jca.retry.backoff.
All properties are integers.
I am trying to have a Out Parameter in my Procedure. Please provide me an example on how to invoke a Stored Procedure using Out Paramter using DB Adapter.

Hi,
It looks more like an Oracle error and not within the DbAdapter.
Try to test first your procedure from PL/SQL or other developer you are using.

where I call the ExecuteSql
method of the OO4O Database object:
Error Type:
Oracle Automation (0x800A01B8)
OIP-04796: Error in creating object instance
If anyone can give me a a solution to this or a better way to
do it I would much appreciate it. I've tried using a function
as well.
It does work if the CLOB is pulled from a database field, so I
think
the problem lies in the CLOB coming from the getXML method.
Since I'm
creating and XML datagram from relational tables, it doesn't
make much
sense to save the generated XML to a CLOB field and then load it
right
back to pass to the web page.
Thanks in advance...
Here's my code for the stored procedure:
Procedure SP_INI_XML
(result OUT CLOB)
IS
queryCtx SYS.DBMS_XMLQuery.ctxType;
begin
queryCtx := SYS.DBMS_XMLQuery.newContext(... SQL
statement ...);
SYS.DBMS_XMLQuery.setRowTag(queryCtx,'INI');
SYS.DBMS_XMLQuery.setRowsetTag(queryCtx,'ROOT');
SYS.DBMS_XMLQuery.setXSLT(queryCtx, 'http://site/file.xsl');
result := SYS.DBMS_XMLQuery.getXML(queryCtx);
SYS.DBMS_XMLQuery.closeContext(queryCtx);
end;
Here's my code from the ASP page:
Set ses = Server.CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession")
Set con = ses.OpenDatabase(DBServer,ConStr,0)
Const ORATYPE_CLOB = 112
con.Parameters.Add "str",Null,2,ORATYPE_CLOB
con.ExecuteSql("begin SP_INI_XML(:str);end;")

Ah yes I see. Sorry I misunderstood what you were suggesting. I'm currently working on a test script that uses an approach similar to the one you mentioned, but I'm having trouble resolving foreign key relationships with test data.
I've no access to the tables or anything so it's proving to be a time consuming task!!
Is it required that all fields are given a value, even if they have a "DEFAULT" defined for them within the procedure. At the moment I'm using a rather cumbersome approach to this:
i.e.
With cmmAddRequest
    .ActiveConnection = strConnect
    .CommandType = adCmdText
    .CommandText = strSQL
    .Parameters(0).Direction = adParamInput
    .Parameters(1).Direction = adParamInput
    .Parameters(2).Direction = adParamInput
    .Parameters(3).Direction = adParamOutput
    .Parameters(4).Direction = adParamOutput
    .Parameters(5).Direction = adParamOutput
    .Parameters(0).Value = "COMP"
    .Parameters(1).Value = "FRML"
    .Parameters(2).Value = "1"
    .Execute
    WScript.Echo(.Parameters(5).Value)
End With

Using the result of an OUT Parameter

Hi,
A little help?, I want to use the OUT parameter in another procedure, I can do it with a function but its bugging me what I'm doing wrong in the procedure.
I code compiles i.e.
PROCEDURE LOG_OUT(calc_id OUT NOCOPY VARCHAR2) AS
BEGIN
SELECT MAX(calculation_ID)
INTO calc_id
FROM AXMW_FA_TRX_DETAIL_BASE;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('LOG Value Returned IS : '||calc_id ) ;
END;
But when I call this from another procedure as
v_log_name VARCHAR2(400);
v_log_name := Fnd_File.LOG_OUT;
The error is
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'LOG_OUT'
Is it something with bind variables
Thanks
Querty

Try
v_log_name := 'Fnd_File.LOG_OUT';Hey, what r u doing with above code?
You are assigning string value to a variable?
The compilation won't give any error.
And OP thinks it's solution!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL

Large Out parameter

Hi all,
I have a problem in returning a very big character string variable (more than 32767) from PL/SQL on 8.1.7 to ASP.
If i try to return a VARRAY of varchar2 whith my string splitted in many string as out parameter, my stored procedure works good, but if ASP lunch my stored procedure, oracle returm me an ORA-02005 error.
Can someone please help me ?
thanks all
Best Regards
Luigi
P.S.
sorry for my english...

Hi SS, thanks
no, i'm not using ref cursors,
i simply return a table of varchar2(32767)...
WHY NOT A BIGGER CHARACTER STRING !!!!!
i think ASP has the problem...
by and thanks again.

Invoking Stored Procedure with OUT Parameter

I am calling a stored procedure that has a "out" parameter of PL/SQL type (table of varchar2) through toplink API. My procedure executes, performs the updates successfully, but I can not obtain the value of the out parameter. Is the approach followed below incorrect? I could not figure out by looking into examples provided in the documentation:

What happens if you run the stored procedure through pure jdbc (without TopLink)?
I tried a simple example that worked for me:
//defined type in the db
CREATE TYPE "TEST"."VAR_LIST" AS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(150)
//defined stored procedure in the db
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE "TEST"."VAR_LIST_IN_OUT" (
VARS_IN VAR_LIST,
VARS_OUT OUT NOCOPY VAR_LIST
as
begin
VARS_OUT := VAR_LIST();
FOR i IN VARS_IN.FIRST..VARS_IN.LAST LOOP
    VARS_OUT.EXTEND;
    VARS_OUT(i) := CONCAT(VARS_IN(i), '_BLAH');
END LOOP;
end;
// Java code
StoredProcedureCall call = new StoredProcedureCall();
call.setProcedureName("VAR_LIST_IN_OUT");
Connection conn = (Connection) ((oracle.toplink.internal.sessions.AbstractSession)getSession()).getAccessor().getConnection();
oracle.sql.ArrayDescriptor arrDesc = new oracle.sql.ArrayDescriptor("VAR_LIST", conn);
oracle.sql.ARRAY srARR = new oracle.sql.ARRAY(arrDesc, conn, new String[]{"A1", "A2", "A3"});
call.addNamedArgumentValue("VARS_IN", srARR);
call.addNamedOutputArgument("VARS_OUT", "VARS_OUT", Types.ARRAY, "VAR_LIST");
ValueReadQuery query = new ValueReadQuery();
query.setCall(call);
Object result = getSession().executeQuery(query);
Object[] array = (Object[])((java.sql.Array)result).getArray();
for(int i=0; i<array.length; i++) {
    System.out.println(array);
// System.out:
[TopLink Finest]: 2008.04.25 15:37:16.687--DatabaseSessionImpl(3491657)--Thread(Thread[main,5,main])--Execute query ValueReadQuery()

     bind => [oracle.sql.ARRAY@323274, => VARS_OUT] (There is no English translation for this message.)

My stored procedure didn't work (on Oracle 9 db) without output collection initialization: VARS_OUT := VAR_LIST(); and extending: VARS_OUT.EXTEND.

Oracle Instant Client and OUT Parameter of custom type in Stored Procedures

Hi @ all!
I try to set up a simple client application, that calls a stored procedure via Instant Client from C#.
The stored procedure and assiciated types looks like this:
TYPE MYVALUE AS OBJECT
      Id      INTEGER,
      value     FLOAT
TYPE MYVALUELIST AS TABLE OF MYVALUE;
PROCEDURE ReadValues( ID IN INTEGER,
                                    RESULTSET OUT MYVALUELIST)
                                       IS
...I created an Oracle Command executing this SP and added OracleParameters for ID and (where I got stuck) the RESULTSET.
Is it possible to pass a parameter with a custom type from C# in some way?
I already tried it as a function with SELECT * FROM TABLE(ReadValues(1));
With my parameter RESULTSET as the RETURN type. But since I use DML within the procedure, this does not work inside of a query...
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Greg!
Sorry, I misunderstood the forum topic then. =(
Anyway, in the example you provided in the link, this is nearly exactly my situation. But there the Oracle.DataAccess.Client is used, where the OracleDBType can be called to initialize an object of type person. I use the instant client libraries called by using System.Data.OracleClient. There is only the OracleType enum, that does not contain an object or something similar.
So I do it right now after trying a bit with a ref cursor parameter and an OracleDataAdapter - the ref cursor is passed back from Oracle as a DataReader, so die DataAdapter is able to use it for a .Fill():
OracleCommand cmd = new OracleCommand();
cmd.Parameters.Add("RESULTSET", OracleType.Cursor).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
OracleDataAdapter odr = new OracleDataAdapter(cmd);
DataTable result = new DataTable();
odr.Fill(result);Within my stored procedure I just added the following OUT parameter:
PROCEDURE ReadValues( ID IN INTEGER,
                                    RESULTSET OUT sys_refcursor)
                                       IS
currentlist MYVALUELIST;
... [Adding elements to that list] ...
OPEN resultset for select * from TABLE(currentlist);It works now, but I don't like that solution that much since I'm always afraid that there are lots of opened cursors idyling around. Do I have to close this one explicitly after filling my table by the DataAdapter?
Regards

Procedure with table type out parameter

Hi,
I need to create a procedure which gives back a content of a table as an out parameter.
i have tried something like below code
it might not be correct since i am writing from home and cannot access any oracle db right now
create or replace procedure test (
table_out test_table%rowtype
) as
type table_out test_table%rowtype
begin
select * into table_out
from test_table
where country = 'HUN';
end;
compile doesnt gives error, but when running it i get error
declare
table_out test_table%rowtype
begin
test( table_out );
dbms_output.put_line( table_out );
end;
but it fails, could you help how to solve the above problem and call the proc correctly?
thanks in advance

Well you said you want the content of a table but your example says you just want a record. So for a record:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE sp_test (EMP_REC OUT EMP%ROWTYPE) IS
BEGIN
select * into emp_rec from emp where empno = 7369;
END;The anonymous block to run it might be:
declare
tab_out emp%rowtype;
begin
sp_test(tab_out);
dbms_output.put_line(tab_out.ename);
end;As damorgan said the dbms_output can't be used with the record type. Notice I used it for the ENAME value of the record.
If you really want the entire table then do it the way damorgan suggests. A pipeline function can give you the table but not as an OUT parameter.
