How to execute STP with Named type table as parameter through ODBC calls.

Question

Hi All,
I am using Oracle 10g release 2. I am having a Stored function which takes Named Type Table as its parameter.
For example
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE tblName is table of someUDT.
CREATE OR REPLACE function nestfunction(t tblName)
return NUMBER
as
//function body here.
end;
Now, I want to call this Stored function nestfunction through ODBC calls. Also want to add multiple rows in tblName parameter.
But am unable to perform the above mentioned task. If you have answers please, reply.
Thanks and regards

Hi Arik,
Thanks for the reply. I got the solution by configuring a NonXA data source. The problem was with internal commits of the fnd_global.initialize api.
If the DB adapter is calling aPL/SQL procedure (written inside a pakcage) using the data source configured to support XA, will expect not to have any commits in side the procedure or anywhere, the XA driver will take of the commits and whole transactions. By default the FND_GLOBAL.INITIALIZE(...) procedure will have the internal commits, so it was throwing the errors.
The solution was configuring the a NonXA Data source in the databae adapter configuration will allow the commits inside the callings procedures. So we created Two data sources one for XA and another for NonXA and we are using the NonXA datasource whereever we are calling the EBS APIs which have the internal commits.
