Help needed in sequence

Question

Hi,
/* Formatted on 2011/09/28 17:32 (Formatter Plus v4.8.8) */
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST (p_out OUT CLOB)
IS
TYPE g_cur IS REF CURSOR;
v_ctx DBMS_XMLGEN.ctxhandle;
v_rcur_qry g_cur;
l_val NUMBER;
BEGIN
OPEN v_rcur_qry FOR
SELECT 'test' AS valuess, l_val AS name_ref, '_L' || l_val AS valuesss
FROM DUAL;
END TEST;
In the above procedure, I need the l_val value (same value for a single row)from a sequence in two places. How can i achieve it? Your suggestions are highly appreciated
Regards,
Simma...

Answer 1

Using normal SEQUENCE should work
set serveroutput on
DECLARE
    w_text        VARCHAR2(10);
    w_name_ref    NUMBER(10);
    w_values      VARCHAR2(10);
    w_sequence_no NUMBER(10);
BEGIN
    SELECT
        'test'          AS valuess,
        DEP_SEQ.NEXTVAL AS name_ref,
        '_L'
        || DEP_SEQ.NEXTVAL AS valuesss,
        DEP_SEQ.NEXTVAL    AS sequence_no
    INTO
        w_text,
        w_name_ref,
        w_values,
        w_sequence_no
    FROM
        DUAL;
    dbms_output.put_line('Value of name_ref : '||w_name_ref);
    dbms_output.put_line('Value of valuesss : '||w_values);
    dbms_output.put_line('Value of sequence_no : '||w_sequence_no);
END;
anonymous block completed
Value of name_ref : 25
Value of valuesss : _L25
Value of sequence_no : 25
