Multiple return vals from PL/SQL

Hello:
I am calling a PL/SQL proc from Java, though the procedure has 2 output values it returns. Has anyone done something similar? I've tried an array with now success. Can you return a row with PL/SQL? Thus maybe use a RowIterator?

You should look into a function/procedure that modifies its input arguments. Your java program can read those as well as the basic return value. That way you can have as many 'return values' as you need.

How do I get multiple return results from a function

IDBASKET IDSTAGE DTSTAGE

3 5 25-JAN-03
4 1 13-FEB-03
4 5 13-FEB-03
5 3 21-FEB-03
I input is a single IDBASKET number from this table and this function works fine only if it has one IDSTAGE per idbasket. (idbasket#5)
But how do I get it to return a result for an IDBASKET when it has multiple IDSTAGE? (idbasket#3 & 4)

Problem returning variables from dynamic SQL/PLSQL

Hi, I have a problem I am trying to solve using a very short piece of dynamic SQL or PLSQL but I am having problems getting the variable values out of the dynamic block.
I have 16 counters whose names are made up of three variable parts - 'scheme', 'contributory category' and 'employment category'
The 'scheme' can be either 'no1', 'no2', 'off', 'cg' or 'amc'
The 'contributory category' can be either 'cont' or 'noncont'
The 'employment category' can be either 'ft' or 'pt'
(There are only 16 because only 16 combinations are possible)
For example the total counter name could be 'v_cg_noncont_ft_count'
I have created a variable by concatenating the various elements called v_incr_count_name which holds the name of the counter I want to increment.
I am running this whole thing within an anonymous PLSQL block so I cannot use global variables meaning that my variables are not visible within a dynamic PLSQL block.
I believe this means that either I need to bind the variables within a PLSQL block or use a SELECT FROM INTO SQL block.
I have tried a few solutions with no luck such as the following PLSQL:
v_incr_count := 'v_'||v_scheme||'_'||v_cont_cat||'_'||v_emp_cat||'_count';
sql_stmt := 'BEGIN :a := :a + 1; END;';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE sql_stmt USING v_incr_count_name;
Unfortunately I am getting the 'IN bind variable bound to an OUT position' error which I believe is because it is trying to return a value into v_incr_count_name which has been defined by default as an IN variable. The problem is that I need to store the returned value into the variable whose name is stored in v_incr_count_name.
Another solution I tried is:
v_incr_count_name := 'v_'||v_scheme||'_'||v_cont_cat||'_'||v_emp_cat||'_count';
sql_stmt := 'SELECT '||v_incr_count_name||' + 1 FROM DUAL';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE sql_stmt INTO v_return;
This solution gives me an 'Invalid colum error'
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Cheers, Dan

Multiple records from PL/SQL

Hi,
Can anybody give me an example of returning multiple records selected from PL/SQL procedure to a Java program .
It will be very good if i can get PL/SQL procedure code and Java program code.
Thanx.

Use the SampleCode link at the top of the page. Look under JDBC samples for REF CURSOR.

Returing array from PL/SQL procedure

Hi,
I am trying to return array from PL/SQL procedure. Heres is the code. I am getting an error "OracleParameter.ArrayBindSize is invalid ".
Will anybody let me know what is wrong in following code. or does anybody have code to return PL/SQL array using VB.NET.
oCommand.CommandText = "MyPack.TestVarchar2"
oCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
Dim id As Integer = 10
Dim deptname As String()
Dim oParam1 As Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleParameter = New Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleParameter("id", Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleDbType.Int32)
Dim oParam2 As Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleParameter = New Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleParameter("deptname", Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleDbType.Varchar2)

Thanks

Thanks Arnold for the reply..
Yes, I am trying to get result set in array which is unknow to me (No of rows return by the query). For the test I will pre-define the result set so that I will able to set ArrayBindSize.
I have read C# example but when I try to write it in VB.NET it gives me syntax error when I try to set the ArrayBindSize.
oParam.ArrayBindSize = new int[3]{15,23,13} // individual max size of 3 outputsWill you please let me know how to set ArrayBindSize (VB.NET) because I am new to this..
There is an example at otn "How to: Bind an Array to an ODP.NET Database Command" which does multiple INSERTs in one trip to database. This works fine. I need to do same for the SELECT statement which will return me multiple rows. I do not mean refCursor. If I use refCursor, it will make soft parse which I am trying to avoid using this Array techniq.
Thanks

You need to have either OUTPUT parameters or use RETURN statement to return a value in stored procedures. RETURN can only return integer values whereas OUTPUT parameters can be of any type
First modify your procedure to define return value or OUTPUT parameter based on requirement
for details see
http://www.sqlteam.com/article/stored-procedures-returning-data
Once that is done in SSIS call sp from Execute SQL Task and in parameter mapping tabe shown above add required parameters and map them to variables created in SSIS and select Direction as Output or Return Value based on what option you used in your
procedure.

How to get multiple out parameters from a pl/sql stored procedure in ADF Jdeveloper 11g release2

I´m trying to call from AppModuleImpl a stored procedure from my oracle DB which receives one input parameter and returns 5 out parameters.
I´m using jdeveloper 11g release2 ADF and I have created a java bean "ProRecallPlatesBean " with the atributes and accesors and I serialize it. just like in this article http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24382_01/web.1112/e16182/bcadvgen.htm#sm0297
This is my code so far:
public ProRecallPlatesBean getCallProRecallPlates(String numPlates) {
CallableStatement st = null;
try {
          // 1. Define the PL/SQL block for the statement to invoke
          String stmt = "begin CTS.Pk_PreIn.proRecallPlates(?,?,?,?,?,?); end;";
          // 2. Create the CallableStatement for the PL/SQL block
          st = getDBTransaction().createCallableStatement(stmt,0);
          // 3. Register the positions and types of the OUT parameters
          st.registerOutParameter(2,Types.VARCHAR);
st.registerOutParameter(3,Types.VARCHAR);
st.registerOutParameter(4,Types.VARCHAR);
st.registerOutParameter(5,Types.VARCHAR);
st.registerOutParameter(6,Types.VARCHAR);
// 4. Set the bind values of the IN parameters
st.setString(1,numPlates);
// 5. Execute the statement
st.executeUpdate();
// 6. Create a bean to hold the multiple return values
ProRecallPlatesBean result = new ProRecallPlatesBean();
// 7. Set values of properties using OUT params
result.setSpfVal(st.getString(2));
result.setTransportTypeVal(st.getString(3));
result.setTransportCompanyVal(st.getString(4));
result.setCompanyDescrVal(st.getString(5));
result.setDGAPrint(st.getString(6));
// 8. Return the result
return result;
} catch (SQLException e) {
throw new JboException(e);
} finally {
if (st != null) {
try {
// 9. Close the JDBC CallableStatement
st.close();
catch (SQLException e) {}
In Jdeveloper I went into AppModule.xml JAVA>Client Interface section and expose "getCallProRecallPlates" Then I can see "getCallProRecallPlates" in Data Controls, I drag and drop it to a JSF page, an input text component and a button are generated in order to put in there the procedure input parameter (numPlates).
I don't know if I'm on the right track.
When I click the button, the "result" variable is supposed to be filled with data from the stored procedure. I want each of those values to be displayed in Output text or input text adf components but I dont know how. Thank you very much in advance I´m a newbie and i'll appreciate your help!

How to reference multiple instances of the same Java object from PL/SQL?

Dear all,
I'm experimenting with calling Java from PL/SQL.
My simple attempts work, which is calling public static [java] methods through PL/SQL wrappers from SQL (and PL/SQL). (See my example code below).
However it is the limitation of the public static methods that puzzels me.
I would like to do the following:
- from PL/SQL (in essence it needs to become a forms app) create one or more objects in the java realm
- from PL/SQL alter properties of a java object
- from PL/SQL call methods on a java object
However I fail to see how I can create multiple instances of an object and reference one particular object in the java realm through public static methods.
My current solution is the singleton pattern: of said java object I have only 1 copy, so I do not need to know a reference to it.
I can just assume that there will only ever be 1 of said object.
But I should be able to make more then 1 instance of an object.
To make it more specific:
- suppose I have the object car in the java realm
- from PL/SQL I want to create a car in the java realm
- from PL/SQL I need to give it license plates
- I need to start the engine of a scpecific car
However if I want more then 1 car then I need to be able to refrence them. How is this done?
Somehow I need to be able to execute the following in PL/SQL:
DECLARE
vMyCar_Porsche CAR;
vMyCar_Fiat CAR;
BEGIN
vMyCar_Porsche = new CAR();
vMyCar_Fiat = new CAR();
vMyCar_Porsche.setLicensePlates('FAST');
vMyCar_Porsche.startEngine();
vMyCar_Fiat.killEngine();
END;
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Ruben

You can do this by manually creating a new iterator binding in your binding tab.
So instead of dragging the VO directly to the page, go to the binding tab, add a new executable iterator binding, and point to that one from your ELs in the page itself.

Periodic Alert-How to send all the records returned from the SQL in a mail?

Hello all,
I have defined a Periodic Alert, my SQL query returns more than one record whenever I run it. I also defined an action to send an email with the message consisting of the output variables from the SQL. Whenever i run this alert, a mail is being sent for every single record returned from the query. But i want to send a single mail containing all the records information that my SQL query returns.
For Example: My SQL query lists all the users created on current date.
Select User_Id, User_Name into &OUTPUT1, &OUTPUT2
from fnd_users where trunc(creation_date) = trunc(sysdate)
Now i want to send a mail with all the users information from the above query, to SYSADMIN. How can this be achieved?
Thanks & Regards
chakoo

Hi Chakoo,
If the Periodic Alert is not working as requried. You can write a simple package with 3 procedures to implement the writing output to a out file and simultaneuosly send email to multiple receiptents.
Example:
Create Package xx_pac
Create public Procedure P1
begin
Select User_Id, User_Name into &OUTPUT1, &OUTPUT2
from fnd_users where trunc(creation_date) = trunc(sysdate)
fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.output, &OUTPUT1, &OUTPUT2);
end;
(Create private Procedure P2
begin
---Write the email package using the UTL_SMTP approch. Using this approch you can send the procedure P1 output file as an attachment to the desiginated receiptents.
end;
(Create public Procedure P3
begin
---call the procedure P1 using the "g_request_id = fnd_request.submit_request"
---Wait for the above procedure to complete using "l_conc_status := fnd_concurrent.wait_for_request" procedure.
---call the procedure P2. (When called you must provide the correct to, from address)
end;
end;
Register the Package xx_pac as a concurrent program and schedule when submit it from the request.

Passing multiple character values from parameter form to PL/SQL

Hi,
I am passing multiple character values from parametr form into
the report query and a PL/SQL procedure. It works fine with the
query, when I use &variable. But, it doesn't compile in PL/SQL,
so I just used the :variable, but not getting any records in the
PL/SQL procedure. Any suggestions?
sincerely,
gj

gj / Fedro,
Only using the &referecne, you can pas a string / multiple character values and this would work for query only.
The bind parameter in PL/SQL wouls support only single value
Thanks

How to test a procedure which returns a recordset from pl/sql

hello,
Is it possible to test a procedure which returns a recordset from pl/sql?
Everything I try results in errors like PLS-00382: expression is of wrong type, when I try to open the result cursor
or PLS-00221: tc is not a procedure or is undefined.
I created the following procedure:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE test AS
TYPE cursorType is REF CURSOR;
PROCEDURE test_cursor( tc IN OUT cursorType,
v_err OUT varchar2,
v_msg OUT varchar2);
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE
PACKAGE BODY test AS
PROCEDURE test_cursor
(tc IN OUT cursorType,
v_err OUT varchar2,
v_msg OUT varchar2)
AS
BEGIN
open tc for
SELECT '1' "number" FROM dual
union
select '2' "number" from dual;
v_msg := 'no errors';
v_err := 0;
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND
THEN
v_msg := 'no data found';
v_err := SQLCODE;
WHEN OTHERS
THEN
v_msg := SQLERRM;
v_err := SQLCODE;
END;
END;
I try to get the output from pl/sql with something like this:
DECLARE
TC PROVGRON.TEST.cursorType;
V_ERR VARCHAR2(200);
V_MSG VARCHAR2(200);
BEGIN
V_ERR := NULL;
V_MSG := NULL;
PROVGRON.TEST.TEST_CURSOR ( TC, V_ERR, V_MSG );
DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line('V_ERR = ' || V_ERR);
DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line('V_MSG = ' || V_MSG);
-- in tc I was hoping to hava a cursor??
FOR i IN tc
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (i.number);
END LOOP;
END;
Without the for loop (or open tc) the pl/sql will output:
V_ERR = 0
V_MSG = no errors
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
With anything I try with the cursor I get errors?
What am I doing wrong?

How to exit from SQL*Plus based on the return value of a SQL select stment?

Hi
I have a SQL script executed from SQL*Plus. I would like to know if SQL*Plus
supports any kind of branching or exiting from script execution based on a
returned value of a SQL select statement. I am on 9i.
Regards,
Tamas Szecsy

in sqlplus, you have whenever
ex:
whenever sqlerror exit failure
insert into ...
-- if this fails, then you will be out
insert into ...
-- if this fails, then you will be out
whenever sqlerror continue
insert into ...
-- if this fails, this continues
insert into ...and you have PL/SQL
declare x number;
begin
select count(*) into x from emp;
if (x=14) then null; end if;
end;
/note that you can mix those in some case
-- exit if there is no row in emp
whenever sqlerror exit 1
var dummy number
exec select count(*) into :dummy from emp having count(*)!=0
