Getting error while calling AME api from the page

Question

Hi,
I am calling ame api ame_api2.getallapprovers7 from our custom page.I have written following code-
public void getapprovers(String transactionid)
String OutError = "";
ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
OADBTransaction trans = getOADBTransaction();
String insStmnt = "BEGIN " +
"ame_api2.getAllApprovers7(applicationIdIn => :1,transactionTypeIn =>:2,transactionIdIn =>:3,"+
"l_processYN =>:4,approversOut =>:5); " +
"END;";
OracleCallableStatement stmt = (OracleCallableStatement)trans.createCallableStatement(insStmnt, 1);
try
stmt.setString(1, "800");
stmt.setString(2, "XXXXCWKAPP");
stmt.setString(3, transactionid);
stmt.registerOutParameter(4, OracleTypes.VARCHAR);
stmt.registerOutParameter(5, OracleTypes.ARRAY,"XXXX_APPROVER_TABLE");
stmt.execute();
// OAExceptionUtils.checkErrors as per PLSQL API standards
OAExceptionUtils.checkErrors(trans);
ARRAY arrayError = stmt.getARRAY(5);
Datum[] arr = arrayError.getOracleArray();
for (int i = 0; i < arr.length; i++)
oracle.sql.STRUCT os = (oracle.sql.STRUCT)arr;
Object[] a = os.getAttributes();
System.out.println("Column:" + a[0] + " Value:" + a[1]);
//OutError = (String)a[1];
//al.add(new OAException(OutError, OAException.ERROR));
stmt.close();
catch(SQLException sqle){
try { stmt.close(); }
catch (Exception e) {;}
throw OAException.wrapperException(sqle);
if (OutError != null)
// OAException.raiseBundledOAException(al);
4 and 5th parameters are out parameters and 5th parameter provides the approver records and it should have the same data type as ame_util.approversTable2. I have created this table type explicitly in oracle by the name XXXX_APPROVER_TABLE but i am getting the error while running the page "java.sql.SQLException: Fail to construct descriptor: Unable to resolve type: "APPS.ETHR_APPROVER_TABLE"". I requirement is to take the 5th parameter in ame_util.approversTable2 data type.
Please help me urgently.
Thanks
Ashish

Hi Kumar,
The ETHR_APPROVER_TABLE is custom pl sql indexed table that I have created.following are the parameters of api-
procedure getAllApprovers7(
applicationIdIn in number,
transactionTypeIn in varchar2,
transactionIdIn in varchar2,
approvalProcessCompleteYNOut out varchar2,
approversOut out nocopy ame_util.approversTable2);
i need a out variable of type ame_util.approversTable2 so get the values.
I have changed the code and now getting the following error-
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-03115: unsupported network datatype or representation
I have only changed this statement.
stmt.registerOutParameter(5,OracleTypes.PLSQL_INDEX_TABLE);//,"XXXX_APPROVAL_TBL");
