Ideas for a PLSQL problem

Question

Hi all,
for my project I'm looking for the best solution to interconnect a plsql package to the ADF Middle Tier.
My package in general has to return a collection of varchar2s and numbers.
What is the best way for the ADF to read these data? Limits?
There are other ways to link packages to ADF?
Thanks to all,
Riccardo

Using JDev11g you can generate pl/sql packaged based web services.
Goto database navigator, connect to a database, explore your pl/sql package and right click and press "Publish as Web Service".
This generates all the requried java classes.
Goto your model project, right click on the new web service and click Test Webservice.
It generates WSDL file for you.
Using this wsdl, you can create web services data control.
Using this data control you can easily generate adf table in your jsf page.
If you want to edit table row, set the input binding and execute the web service.
        BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
        OperationBinding operationBinding = bindings.getOperationBinding("saveData");
        Object result = operationBinding.execute();
