How can i get select result in varray

Question

Hi,
I am new in oracle. I have the following sproc it return around 500 records but OCCI takes long time to get all records due to one-by-one records fetch.
TYPE rec_type is record ( f1 integer, f2 integer, f3 integer,f4 integer );
TYPE id_rec_type IS REF CURSOR RETURN rec_type;
PROCEDURE get_s_data (
v_s IN VARCHAR2,
v_p IN INTEGER ,
v_d IN INTEGER ,
o_cd OUT NUMBER ,
o_id OUT id_rec_type ) IS
BEGIN
DECLARE
v_start_date DATE;
BEGIN
select get_start_date(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DD-MON-YYYY') ,-1* v_d ) into v_start_date from dual;
OPEN o_id FOR
SELECT f1 , f2 , f3, f4
FROM T1
WHERE s1 = v_s
AND timestamp >= v_start_date;
END;
I want to convert above sproc in VARRAY/Table to utilize bulk fetch
I am not sure how to convert multicolumns select result in varray.
example in document use only one column in varray from select statement.
some exmple use cursor with bulk fetch but problem is cursor need to define in declare section.
I have one condition in where clause and get calculate in sproc.
any suggestion?

thanks for reply.
It doesn't work with ref cursor as output parameter in sproc.
Please see my post in OCCI forums.
Performance problem with sproc and out parameter ref cursor
after spending some time found one way.
prcedure p1 ( i1 IN integer , i2 IN integer, v1 OUT varray_type )
declare
cursor c1 is
select c1 , c2 , c3 , c4
from t1
where c1 > i1 and c2 > i2;
begin
open c1;
fetch c1 bulk collect into v1;
close c1;
end;
procedure p2 ( v1 OUT varry_type )
declare
i1 integer
i2 integer
begin
i1 := new_calculate_value(i2);
i3 := calculate_s(i2);
p1(i1,i3,v1);
end;
above method allow us to calculate where clause value before cursor define and get filter data.
I am working OCCI to get varray from above method.
