Oracle VarChar for ADO Output Parameter

I have a VB6 app on XP that uses OLE DB and ADO to access data from Oracle. I am trying to create and append and output parameter to my SQL command. The output parameter is of type VarChar in Oracle. I tried to choose adChar, adVarChar, adLongVarChar for this Output parameter type, but I keep getting "3708 Parameter object is imoproperly defined." error.
What should be right mapping from ADO's DataTypeEnum to Oracle's VarChar???

I'm not up on the latest, but, the last time I looked at it, we were supposed to use VARCHAR2, not VARCHAR.
Anyhow, I use VB6 and ADO all the time ... usually with MSDAORA or ODBC, but, regardless, I use adVarChar and have never had a problem with it. You might check to make sure your Size is big enough. I usually just use 255 for Size. I haven't used an OUT parameter in a while, but you might try initialized your parameter value to String(" ", 255) or the like.
Good luck.

  • Calling an oracle stored procedure with output parameter

    Hi,
    I am trying to execute a procedure with 2 input and 1 output parameters by using SQLQuery. I tried each mode (Command, FixedQuery & FixedQueryWithOutput) with following statements.
    call cm_test_prod([Param.1],[Param.2],[Param.3])

    or
    Error: "not all variables bound"
    If I use without output parameter, in Command mode, It works fine.
    call cm_test_prod([Param.1],[Param.2])
    or
    call cm_test_prod('[Param.1]','[Param.2]')
    works without error.

    Hi,
    @Marcelo,
    I  used your package just by replacing 'varchar2' instead of 'varchar(100)''. I got the error message 'ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement'. I didn't understand how we handle output parameter with this:
    Query = Call MYPKG.MyProcedure(1,'Test FixedQueryWithOutput',?)
    What is Query in here? If we have two output parameters, how would we get the outputs?
    My procedure is:
    CREATE OR REPLACE
    PROCEDURE XXXXX.CM_TEST_PROD_OUTPUT(v1 in number,v2  in number, v3 out number) IS
    BEGIN
      update test_table set no2 = (v1+v2);
      commit;
      v3 := v1+v2;
    END;
    declare
    a number;
    BEGIN
      cm_test_prod_output(1,6,a);
    END;
    if I use this
    call cm_test_prod_output([Param.1],[Param.2],?)
    with FixedQueryWithOutput mode,
    I get the following error:
    ORA-06553: PLS-306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'CM_TEST_PROD_OUTPUT'
    @Mike,
    I already tried both with quotes and without quotes, also I tried both with number output and with string output.
    As I mentioned before, if I use number inputs without output in Command mode,
    call cm_test_prod(http://Param.1,http://Param.2)
    or
    call cm_test_prod('http://Param.1','http://Param.2')
    works succesfully.

  • How to check for null value of output parameter?

    Hi guys, I get a test procedure with 2 output parameters and do nothing:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY p_parameters_test AS
      PROCEDURE p_null_output_basetype(p1 OUT NUMBER,p2 OUT VARCHAR2)
      AS
      BEGIN
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('DO NOTHING');
      END p_null_output_basetype;
    END;And I have below C# code:
    cmd.CommandText = "p_parameters_test.p_null_output_basetype";
    OracleParameter p1 = new OracleParameter("p1", OracleDbType.Decimal, System.Data.ParameterDirection.Output);
    OracleParameter p2 = new OracleParameter("p2", OracleDbType.Varchar2, System.Data.ParameterDirection.Output);
    cmd.Parameters.Add(p1);
    cmd.Parameters.Add(p2);
    try
        conn.Open();
        cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
        if (p1.Value==null)
            Console.WriteLine("p1.Value==null");
        else if (Convert.IsDBNull(p1.Value))
            Console.WriteLine("Convert.IsDBNull(p1.Value)");
        else
            Console.WriteLine("p1 else "+p1.Value);
        if (p2.Value==null)
            Console.WriteLine("p2.Value==null");
        else if (Convert.IsDBNull(p2.Value))
            Console.WriteLine("Convert.IsDBNull(p2.Value)");
        else
            Console.WriteLine("p2 else "+p2.Value);
        Console.WriteLine("finished");
    catch......The output of it is:
    p1 else null
    p2 else null
    Does anyone have any idea why it always goes to the 'else' of the condition-branching, and how can I check if the output parameter is null?
    Thanks in advance.

    Morven... I ran into similar problems. Maybe you've found a solution of your own by now, but here's what I've learned...
    The Value property of output parameters, like p1 and p2 in your code, actually varies, according to (I think) the OracleDbType of the parameter. You've got OracleDbType.Decimal for p1 and OracleDbType.Varchar2 for p2. These look about right, since they match the parameter types in your actual stored procedure.
    After cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() executes, the respective Value properties of p1 and p2 are actually of different types. For p1, it's going to be "OracleDecimal" and for p2 it's "OracleString". Keep in miind that these are the types of the Value property of the OracleParameter objects, not the OracleParameter objects themselves.
    OracleDecimal and OracleString (and some other types like OracleDate, etc.) have an "IsNull" property you can use if you cast the Value property to its runtime type...
    if ((OracleDecimal)cmd.Parameters["p1"].Value).IsNull) { …do something… }
    else { …do something else… }
    Or maybe something like this...
    Decimal p1val = ((OracleDecimal)cmd.Parameters["p1"].Value).IsNull ? 0 : ((OracleDecimal)cmd.Parameters["AVG_SALARY"].Value).Value;
    I'll admit that expressions like this: ((OracleDecimal)cmd.Parameters["AVG_SALARY"].Value).Value look a little weird. But the "Value" of the "OracleDecimal" property is a regular .NET decimal type (System.Decimal). So, it's a "Value" of the "Value" property of the OracleParameter class.
    Even when the stored procedure returns a null, the Value property is still populated. In the case of p1, it's populated with an OracleDecimal object (actually a struct) where IsNull is true. That's why "p1.Value==null" tests false.
    From what I can see, OracleDecimal, OracleString, etc. will never be typed as DbNull, or DBNull.Value. So, that would be why Convert.IsDBNull(p1.Value)) always returns false. btw, it appears that these are Value types. That would suggest that coding something like like this, should be avoided…
    OracleString p2val = ((OracleString)cmd.Parameters["p2"].Value;
    if (p2val.IsNull) { …do something… }
    else { …do something else… }
    By assigning the value to another variable, you’d be actually creating an entire copy of the OracleString structure, which is pointless.
    I hope that helps

  • How to call a Stored Procedure with a REF CURSOR output parameter

    I am looking forward an example that call a stored function/procedure with a REF CURSOR output parameter and get the result.
    In other words, I have a stored function/procedure that execute a SELECT statement using the OCI library and then it could get the values of each column and each row.
    I put a code snippet, it have only the main thing to call a simple stored procedure and print the name of each column of the cursor, but I couldn´t to print out the values in the table that call the stored procedure.
    I understand that the next step, it is to call a OCIStmtFetch.
    How to associate the cursor with the OCIStmtFetch?
    If you need more information, only tell me.
    I am using ANSI C with HP-UX Operative System (C for HP-UX) and Oracle 10g.

  • Error fetching data from a foxpro db using Oracle Gateway for ODBC

    Hi.
    I have an 10.2.0.1 database an a 11.2.0 Oracle Gateway for ODBC installed and configured.
    The dblink test works fine, I can connect with the foxpro database because if I execute desc centros I can see the
    columns of table centros.
    The problem comes when I try to execute Select * from centros@fox1;
    A syntax error is returned ([Microsoft][ODBC Visual FoxPro Driver]Syntax error. {42000,NativeErr = 200})
    I paste down the output of the trace file with HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL=255
    If I run select codcen from centros@fox1; another error is shown. Tell me if you want the other trace file.
    select codcen from centros@fox1

    The first issue I see is that Oracle 10.2.0.1 was never certified with DG4ODBC 11. Only 10.2.0.4 or 10.2.0.5 can be used as the Oracle database HS kernel requires a gateway compatibility patch and this patch is included in 10.2.0.4 or 10.2.0.5 Oracle database patch set.
    Then another error in the trace is that for each column description you have an error:
    hgopoer, line 233: got native error 0 and sqlstate HY091; message follows...
    [Microsoft][ODBC Visual FoxPro Driver]*Descriptor type out of range* {HY091}

    hgodscr, line 615: calling SQLColAttribute got sqlstate HY091
    It seems it is not critical as DG4ODBC continues, but a more detailed analysis would require an ODBC trace.
    When looking at the table description it seems the column names are all in lower letters, for example: solar. So commonly Dg4ODBC needs to quote the names

    and according to the trace the FoxPro ODBC driver doesn't like these quotes and reports a syntax error.
    So this explains at least why select codcen from centros@fox1 will fail. In general the Oracle database is case insensitive and translates all object names to upper case and the select it will pass to the foreign database would be similar to:
    select CODCEN from CENTROS => which will fail as FoxPro is case sensitive. So the error message ORA-00904 (missing column name) is correct and the statement you need to use is:
    select "codcen" from centros@fox1;
    But this might lead again to the Syntax error you got earlier => You need to check which sign (single quote, back tick, double quote) Foxpro uses to quote object names and then set the gateway parameter HS_FDS_QUOTE_IDENTIFIER accordingly.
    To check which character can be used to quote column/table names you might use the Microsoft ODBc test utility which was distributed in the old MDAC 2.8:

  • Value has to be entered for an optional parameter for WS

    Hi,
    I have created a webservice from a PL/SQL package using the below tutorial.
    http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/obe/jdev/obe1013jdev/10131/wsfromplsqlpackage/devwsfrom%20plsql.htm
    I wrote my package to get the user status from fnd_user table. The package/procedure cannot get simpler than this. There are 2 input parameters (optional) and 1 output parameter. I am able to call this pkg-proc from SQL Plus and everything works fine. I can pass either of the 2 input parameters and the procedure returns the correct information depending upon what is passed. However when I exposed this as a web service, and if I do not pass the user id parameter, I get "Caught exception while handling request: deserialization error: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: """ error. I tried nillable="true" and minOccurs="0" for user id but still it seems the web service is forcing me to enter the value for user id parameter. The other way works i.e. if user name is left blank.
    If I change the data type for the 1st parameter (p_user_id) to varchar2, then the WS returns proper info. Seems like nillable="true" works for string (varchar2) datatype but not for integer or number.
    Any help will be truly appreciated. Thanks.

      procedure Get_User_Status (
         p_user_id                      IN  INTEGER  DEFAULT 0

    Hi
    I have tried pl/sql package via SOA gateway and it worked.

  • Associative Array with more than one field - retrieving as output parameter

    Hello,
    I'm developing an C# Application that is showing a datagrid with results from a PL/SQL procedure inside a Package.
    The .net project is in .net 4 and the DB is an oracle 10g.
    I have read the odp.net sample about the associative array. I could successfully pass as an input parameter a string[] and dealing with it inside my PL/SQL procedure.
    Now it become more complex to me because I would like to return an associative array defined like this :
    TYPE r_FinalExtract IS RECORD
    RecordmyTable myTable%ROWTYPE,
    Tel1 varchar2(25),
    Tel1Libelle varchar2(50),
    Tel2 varchar2(25),
    Tel2Libelle varchar2(50),
    Tel3 varchar2(25),
    Tel3Libelle varchar2(50),
    Tel4 varchar2(25),
    Tel4Libelle varchar2(50),
    Tel5 varchar2(25),
    Tel5Libelle varchar2(50),
    Email1 varchar2(50),
    Email1Libelle varchar2(50),
    Email2 varchar2(50),
    Email2Libelle varchar2(50)
    TYPE t_FinalExtract IS TABLE OF r_FinalExtract INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
    You can guess my PL/SQL stored procedure is filling this collection.
    The spec of my procedure :
    PROCEDURE P_SELECTDATA( ptab_ListRef IN t_AssocArrayVarchar2, ptab_Result OUT t_FinalExtract );
    Unfortunately, in my .net project, I don't know how to deal with that.
    I tryed to add p_Result as an output parameter but you have to define the OracleCollectionType for that parameter and the array type is not the good one because my t_FinalExtract is not a simple array...
    I searched over the internet and the only one thread I could find is someone who was doing like me... and finally reply to his own thread 3 months later and said that he had to create CSV lines and return a table of varchar2...
    This is what I will do because I'm loosing time for finding the way to do it with my associative array, but if someone has the solution I would be glad to read it.
    Thanks in advance.

    For PL/SQL records, I would recommend using User-Defined Types (UDTs), rather than associative arrays.
    You can read more on how to use ODP.NET UDTs here:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E20434_01/doc/win.112/e23174/featUDTs.htm#CJAGCAID
    Strictly speaking, ODP.NET doesn't support PL/SQL Records per se. Instead, ODP.NET supports building any generic UDT in the Oracle DB, which covers the effective functionality of a Record.
    If you want to walk through the process of taking a sample DB UDT, generating a .NET custom class, then passing an instance between DB and application, here's a tutorial that shows you how to do that:

  • Oracle Reports 9I generate output in excel

    Report Builder 9.0.4.0.33
    I tried generating output to Excel using 10GR2 Report builder using SPREADSHEET for destype on the web and it works.
    The requirement is for this one customer who is on 9I and they are asking for excel output functiuonality on thier existing reports.
    Does oracle has a patch or any other way to generate the exisitng reports on 91 where we can give them a selection like SPREADSHEET in the parameter screen and it would generate the report in excel.
    Thanks
    I tried by appending below to the url in the before report trigger.
    &mimetype=application/vnd.ms-excel
    which works but, we give other selections to the user too where they can change the desformat to PDF or HTMLCSS...and they all try to open the report output in excel.
    Edited by: Forms_Reports_Beginner on Oct 6, 2009 3:17 PM

    Thank you Lalitk and Dennis,
    My team mate wrote a javascript function on before report trigger that checks the paramter selection for desformat and append the mimetype accordingly.Hence, able to achieve the functionality.
    Thanks.

  • Calling Stored Procedure with Boolean Output Parameter

    Hi all,
    I'm running into an issue (or is it a BUG) when calling a Database Stored Procedure that has an output parameter of the boolean type.
    procedure proc(p_text in varchar2, p_result out boolean)
    is
    .....I use the following 'standard' code (developer guide 36-19 36-20) to invoke this procedure from my application module.
            try {
                // 1. Define the PL/SQL block for the statement to invoke
                String stmt = "begin proc(?,?); 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.BOOLEAN);
                // 4. Set the bind values of the IN parameters
                st.setObject(1, "Some text");
                // 5. Execute the statement
                st.executeUpdate();
                ..............................As soon as 'st.registerOutParameter(2, Types.BOOLEAN);' is invoked I run into a SQLexception. "Invalid ColumnType: 16". Obviously 16 refers to Types.BOOLEAN.
    [edit by Luc]
    SOLUTION / WORKAROUND
    To answer my own question.
    It looks like BOOLEAN output parameters are not supported. I just Read "Appendix D Troubleshooting" of the Oracle® Database JDBC Developer's Guide and Reference 10g Release 2 (10.2).
    I found that JDBC drivers do not support the passing of BOOLEAN parameters to PL/SQL stored procedures. If a PL/SQL procedure contains BOOLEAN values, you can work around the restriction by wrapping the PL/SQL procedure with a second PL/SQL procedure that accepts the argument as an INT and passes it to the first stored procedure. When the second procedure is called, the server performs the conversion from INT to BOOLEAN.
    I'm not very happy with this but I guess I've no choice.

  • REST Web Service Output Parameter not working in POST Handler

    I see APEX is calling wwv_flow_api.create_restful_param to generate the parameters (for importing), is there any documentation on this procedure?
    How can I get this output parameter to return something in the response?
    The request accepts a Json payload.
