How to get values from a ref cursor in a procedure

Question

I have a procedure that returns a cursor type of values, but I cannot get the values.
I got error when on how to define the output cursor. Could someone please look at the code and tell me how to correct it?
Thanks in advance.

     from preorder.PREO_Role, preorder.PREO_User_Role
     where PREO_Role.Role_id = PREO_User_Role.Role_id
     and PREO_User_Role.user_id = userid;

Answer 1

declare
  type T_RoleTest is ref cursor;
  v_UserRole T_RoleTest;or just:
declare
  v_UserRole  Test_Security2.T_RoleTest;And, if you are on 9i or later, you can just use the built-in sys_refcursor type.
