Printing OUT variables from a Stored Procedure

Hi all,
I'm running an SQL command that calls a Stored Procedure and passes in some value. I've pasted in the important parts of it below. What I am trying to do is access the OUT variables that have been assigned to the DECLARED variables. I come from a SQL Server background and there we can do "SELECT @variable" which will print it to screen. I'm trying to do something similar here.
I need to access the contents of the three variables declared at the top of the script.
Thanks in advance.
DECLARE
l_error_value NUMBER;
l_error_product VARCHAR2 (10);
l_CE_DOC_ID number;
BEGIN
PEM.create_enquiry   
     (      ce_cat => 'COMP'
               , ce_class => 'FRML'
               , error_value => l_ERROR_VALUE
               ,error_product => l_ERROR_PRODUCT
               , ce_doc_id => l_ce_doc_id
END;

Ah yes I see. Sorry I misunderstood what you were suggesting. I'm currently working on a test script that uses an approach similar to the one you mentioned, but I'm having trouble resolving foreign key relationships with test data.
I've no access to the tables or anything so it's proving to be a time consuming task!!
Is it required that all fields are given a value, even if they have a "DEFAULT" defined for them within the procedure. At the moment I'm using a rather cumbersome approach to this:
i.e.
With cmmAddRequest
    .ActiveConnection = strConnect
    .CommandType = adCmdText
    .CommandText = strSQL
    .Parameters(0).Direction = adParamInput
    .Parameters(1).Direction = adParamInput
    .Parameters(2).Direction = adParamInput
    .Parameters(3).Direction = adParamOutput
    .Parameters(4).Direction = adParamOutput
    .Parameters(5).Direction = adParamOutput
    .Parameters(0).Value = "COMP"
    .Parameters(1).Value = "FRML"
    .Parameters(2).Value = "1"
    .Execute
    WScript.Echo(.Parameters(5).Value)
End With

  • How to use OUT variables in my stored procedure

    I'm wondering if I can get some help using OUT variables in my stored procedure. Here's my code...

  • How do i handle out parameter from a stored procedure in a vb form?

    hi all,
    I want to return a varchar2(500) type of out parameter from a pl/sql stored procedure to a vb form?? how do i do this??
    regards
    akshay

    Well, when you create the parameter collection for your command object, just set the correct value for the direction component.
    You would set it to one of the below, depending on if the parameter is IN OUT or only OUT:
            <parameter_obj>.Direction = ParameterDirectionEnum.adParamInputOutput
            <parameter_obj>.Direction = ParameterDirectionEnum.adParamOutput

  • How do I retrieve a variable from a stored procedure in Access?

    Given a stored procedure like the one below,
    PROCEDURE getSomething(
                   pVar1           in float,
                   pVar2               in float,
                   pVar3               in float,
                   pVar4               in float,
                   pResults          out varchar2
    How would I retrieve the value in pResults using VBA on Access? Thanks.

    Using this, you can set the value to the session bean
    <c:set property="docID" target="${SessionBean1}" value="${pg_view_doc.hiddenField3.value}"/>
    But before that you have to create a property called docid in the sessionbean1.
    So once the property is set, through getDocID() method u can retrieve the value
    ex: String value=getSessionBean1().getDocID();
    will return the value in the required JSF Page bean

  • Get variable values from a stored procedure

    I am using SQL 2008R2 and I want to replace a view inside a stored procedure with a new stored procedure to return multiple variable values. Currently I am using the code below to get values for 4 different variables.  I would rather get the 4 variables
    from a stored procedure (which returns all of these 4 values and more) but not sure how to do so.  Below is the code for getting the 4 variable values in my current sp.
    DECLARE @TotalCarb real;
    DECLARE @TotalPro real;
    DECLARE @TotalFat real;
    DECLARE @TotalLiquid real;
    SELECT @TotalCarb = ISNULL(TotCarb,0),
    @TotalPro = ISNULL(TotPro,0),
    @TotalFat = ISNULL(TotFat,0),
    @TotalLiquid = ISNULL(TotLiq,0)
    FROM dbo.vw_ActualFoodTotals
    WHERE (MealID = @MealID);

    You can replace the view with inline table valued user-defined function:

  • Executing a Variable in a Stored Procedure containing an Update Statement

    Hi,
    I have created a Stored Procedure, it has one input parameter. Inside the Stored Procedure there are 5 other variables are declared, based on the input parameter 4 of these variables are populated.
    Fifth variable is a a concatenation of text and some of these variables and creates a dynamic Update Statement. Once it is created I want to execute this variable but it is not executing.
    Could someone please help me in knowing how to execute a variable within a stored procedure that contains an update statement.
    Thanks for your help.
    Thanks
    Vineesh
    vineesh1701

    If you have set up the variable so that it contains a valid sql update, it should work.  For example, see below, which does do an update
    use tempdb
    go
    Create Table #Test(i int);
    Insert #Test(i) Values(1);
    go
    Create Procedure TestProc As
    Begin
    Declare @SQL nvarchar(250);
    Set @SQL = 'Update #Test Set i = 2';
    --Print @SQL;
    Exec sp_executesql @SQL;
    End
    go
    Exec TestProc
    -- Test Result
    Select * From #Test;
    go
    Drop Procedure TestProc;
    go
    Drop Table #Test;
    One thing I would recommend while testing is that you print out or select the variable that contains the dynamic sql.  (Like the above code where I have a print statement.  That lets you see exactly what you are executing and if there is any problem
    with the update command. 
    As Naomi said, to get anything more than general help, you will probably have to show us your code and the parameter values you are passing when you execute the stored proc.

  • How to get an updatable ADODB Recordset from a Stored Procedure?

    In VB6 I have this code to get a disconnected ADODB Recordset from a Oracle 9i database (the Oracle Client is 10g):
    Dim conSQL As ADODB.Connection
    Dim comSQL As ADODB.Command
    Dim recSQL As ADODB.Recordset
    Set conSQL = New ADODB.Connection
    With conSQL
    .ConnectionString = "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Password=<pwd>;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=<uid>;Data Source=<dsn>"
    .CursorLocation = adUseClientBatch
    .Open
    End With
    Set comSQL = New ADODB.Command
    With comSQL
    .ActiveConnection = conSQL
    .CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
    .CommandText = "P_PARAM.GETALLPARAM"
    .Properties("PLSQLRSet").Value = True
    End With
    Set recSQL = New ADODB.Recordset
    With recSQL
    Set .Source = comSQL
    .CursorLocation = adUseClient
    .CursorType = adOpenStatic
    .LockType = adLockBatchOptimistic
    .Open
    .ActiveConnection = Nothing
    End With
    The PL/SQL Procedure is returning a REF CURSOR like this:
    PROCEDURE GetAllParam(op_PARAMRecCur IN OUT P_PARAM.PARAMRecCur)
    IS
    BEGIN
    OPEN op_PARAMRecCur FOR
    SELECT *
    FROM PARAM
    ORDER BY ANNPARAM DESC;
    END GetAllParam;
    When I try to update some values in the ADODB Recordset (still disconnected), I get the following error:
    Err.Description: Multiple-step operation generated errors. Check each status value.
    Err.Number: -2147217887 (80040E21)
    Err.Source: Microsoft Cursor Engine
    The following properties on the Command object doesn't change anything:
    .Properties("IRowsetChange") = True
    .Properties("Updatability") = 7
    How can I get an updatable ADODB Recordset from a Stored Procedure?

    4 years later...
    I was having then same problem.
    Finally, I've found how to "touch" the requierd bits.
    Obviously, it's hardcore, but since some stupid at microsoft cannot understand the use of a disconnected recordset in the real world, there is no other choice.

  • Retruring Multiple rows from a Stored Procedure

    The Oracle JDBC documentation shows how to return a cursor pointer through the parameter list of a stored procedure allowing a Java program to use the cursor like a normal result set. I've tried it (using the thin driver) and it works fine - however, I'm having trouble getting this to work running the program under a Weblogic server (using their own JDBC implementation). So, I have two questions:
    1) Has anyone had this problem before and solved it ??
    2) Are there any other techniques for getting multiple rows back from the database without having to fire "raw" sql at it ?

    Hi
    You could return not resultset but array, for example:
    PACKAGE TEST:
    type string_table is table of varchar2(80)
    index by binary_integer;
    function get_something (
    something1 out string_table,
    arraylength in number
    ) return number;
    PACKAGE'S BODY:
    function get_something (
    something1 out string_table,
    arraylength in number /** length of the array **/
    ) return number as
    cursor C is
    select something1, ...
    from test_table;
    pos number := 1;
    begin
    for position in C loop
    exit when (pos > arraylength);
    something1(pos) := position.something1;
    pos := pos + 1;
    end loop;
    return (pos - 1);
    end;
    Of course in this example you need to know length of your array
    (arraylength parameter), but you can avoid such problem, for
    example, by using DBMS_SQL package (or dynamic SQL feature in
    the Oracle8i).

  • Calling stored procedure from a stored procedure

    I have a stored procedure that accepts a customer prefix like "abc" and returns a customer document number like "abc-0021". (Thanks V Garcia)
    This sp works when I call it from SQL Plus Worksheet.
    But I need to call it from another stored procedure and store it in a local variable so that I can insert it into a table with the rest of the information.
    This is what I have tried so far:
    CREATE OR REPLACE  PROCEDURE "SCHEMANAME"."SP_XXTESTXX" ( seq_name in
        varchar2)
    AS
          id_out varchar(10);
    BEGIN
       execute SP_GET_NEXT_DOC_NUMBER(seq_name,:id_out);
       print id_out;
    END;but this will not compile. I get this error:
    Line # = 8 Column # = 12 Error Text = PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "SP_GET_NEXT_DOC_NUMBER" when expecting one of the following:     := . ( @ % ; immediate The symbol ":=" was substituted for "SP_GET_NEXT_DOC_NUMBER" to continue.
    Line # = 8 Column # = 41 Error Text = PLS-00049: bad bind variable 'ID_OUT'
    Line # = 10 Column # = 10 Error Text = PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "ID_OUT" when expecting one of the following:     := . ( @ % ; The symbol ":=" was substituted for "ID_OUT" to continue.

    I think I got it.
    CREATE OR REPLACE  PROCEDURE "SCHEMANAME"."SP_XXTESTXX" ( seq_name in
        varchar2)
    AS
      id_out varchar(10);
    BEGIN
      SP_GET_NEXT_DOC_NUMBER(seq_name,id_out);
      dbms_output.put_line(id_out);
    END;This works like I wanted it to do.

  • Get a return value from a stored procedure.

    hi all ,
    i need to know where i am going wrong with the below code. I am trying to get a value from a stored procedure. the return type is int. The stored procedure works fine as i've debugged it. The variable have been declared correctly.
    int n = 0;
    proc = conn.prepareCall("{ ? = call SP_GETITEMCURRENTSOH(?,?) }");
                proc.registerOutParameter(1, java.sql.Types.INTEGER);
                proc.setString(1, locationCode);
                proc.setString(2, itemCode);
                proc.execute();           
                n = proc.getInt(1);thanks

    Hi ayub_a,
    According the [ *setString*|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/sql/CallableStatement.html#setString(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String)] method of the [*CallableStatement*|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/sql/CallableStatement.html] interface, the first parameter must be a parameter name and not an ordinal position index !!!
    Edit : I've just found out the solution, it must be :
    int n = 0;
    proc = conn.prepareCall("{ ? = call SP_GETITEMCURRENTSOH(?,?) }");
                 proc.registerOutParameter(1, java.sql.Types.INTEGER);
                 proc.setString(2, locationCode);
                 proc.setString(3, itemCode);
                 proc.execute();           
                 n = proc.getInt(1);Edited by: Chicon on Jul 5, 2009 7:48 PM

  • Call a function inside a package from a stored procedure

    Hello:
    I am kind of new to the stored procedure. Does anyone know how to call a function inside a package from another stored procedure?
    I have a existing function (func_b) inside a package (pack_a) and it returns a cursor. I want to call this function from a stored procedure (proc_c) so that I use the data inside the cursor.
    can I do the following in proc_c:
    my_cursor1 SYS_REFCURSOR;
    begin
    my_cursor1 := exec pack_a.func_b
    end
    It will be very helpful if anyone can point me to any reading or example. Thank you very much for your information.

    guys:
    Thank you for your information so far. I need some more help here. I was able to run the function in my stored procedure. However, I was not able to print the result on the screen to view the cursor result, although I am using dbms_output.put_line statement inside my stored procedure.
    I use the following statement to execute my stored procedure on sql*plus. I can tell the stored procedure is executed successfully, but I did see anything printed:
    DECLARE TEMP VARCHAR2(100);
    BEGIN PROC_LAWS_CAD_NAME_SEARCH('LPD', 'TEST DEVICE ID', 'TEST LAST NAME', 'TEST FIRST NAME', 'F', '11112009', TEMP); END;
    I tried to use 'set serveroutput on' and got the following error:
    ERROR:
    ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: host bind array too small
    ORA-06512: at line 1
    I am kind of confused now. thank you for your help.

  • Problem in OUT Parameter in the stored procedure

    Hi,
    I have a problem in the OUT parameter of the stored procedure under the package. I encountered the error PLS-00306. Below are the codes.
    Package
    CREATE OR REPLACE package body test as
         procedure sp_countries(rst OUT country_typ) as
         sql_stmt VARCHAR2(300);
         begin
         sql_stmt := 'SELECT * FROM countries WHERE region_id = 1';
         OPEN rst FOR sql_stmt;     
         end;
    end test;
    by the way. i declared the country_typ as this:
    TYPE country_typ IS REF CURSOR;
    Here is the code that will call this package:
    declare
    tst countries%ROWTYPE;
    begin
    test.sp_countries(tst);
    dbms_output.put_line(tst.country_name);
    end;

    Works for me. Although I had to use emp instead of your table:
    SQL> create or replace
      2  package test as
      3     TYPE country_typ IS REF CURSOR;
      4     procedure sp_countries(rst OUT country_typ);

  • Invoking a UNIX shell command from Java stored procedure

    The program below is suppose do send an email using UNIX mailx program. It works correctly when I compile it in UNIX and invoke it from the command line by sending an email to the given address.
    I need this program to run as a stored procedure, however. I deploy it as such and try to invoke it. It prints the results correctly to the standard output. It does not send any emails, however. One other difference in execution is that when invoked from the command line, the program takes about a minute to return. When invoked as a stored procedure in PL/SQL program or SQL*Plus anonymous block, it returns immediately.
    Why would mailx invocation not work from a stored procedure? Are there other ways to invoke mailx from PL/SQL?
    Thank you.
    Michael
    import java.io.BufferedWriter;

    * Sends a message using UNIX mailx command.

    * @param subject message subject
    * @param addressee message addressee

    try
    String command =
    "echo \"" + message + "\" | mailx -r [email protected]" + " -s \"" + subject + "\" " + addressee;
    if (display > 0)
    System.out.println(command);
    try
    Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/bin/bash");
    BufferedWriter outCommand =
    new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(process.getOutputStream()));
    outCommand.write(command, 0, command.length());
    outCommand.newLine();
    outCommand.write("exit", 0, 4);
    outCommand.newLine();
    outCommand.flush();
    process.waitFor();
    outCommand.close();
    return process.exitValue();
    catch (IOException e)
    e.printStackTrace();
    return -1;
    catch (Exception e)
    e.printStackTrace();
    return -1;

    try adding the full explicit path to "mailx" in the command string that gets sent to Runtime. i would guess that the shell that gets spawned might not have a proper environment and thus mailx might not be found.

  • Returning a table from a stored procedure

    hi, i need to return a table from a stored procedure and show it, and come to this, but a don't know hoy to run it, so i don't know if it is right, can anyone help me?
    uTable out objects_uptime%rowtype
    as
    begin
    select * into uTable from objects_uptime;
    end;

    well, i finally discovered how to do the trick
    this is the code for the function:
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION FN_GET_RECORDS RETURN UPTIME PIPELINED IS
    CURSOR cUptime is select * from objects_uptime;
    p refcur.refcur_t;
    temp p%ROWTYPE;
    temp2 OUPTIME := OUPTIME(null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null);
    BEGIN
    OPEN cUptime;
    LOOP
    FETCH cUptime into temp;
    temp2.OBJ_NAME := temp.OBJ_NAME;
    temp2.IP := temp.IP;
    temp2.STATUS := temp.STATUS;
    temp2.DOE := temp.DOE;
    temp2.ENABLED := temp.ENABLED;
    temp2.COMMENT00000 := temp.COMMENT00000;
    temp2.USERID := temp.USERID;
    temp2.OBJECTID := temp.OBJECTID;
    temp2.MNTID := temp.MNTID;
    pipe row(temp2);
    EXIT WHEN cUptime%NOTFOUND;
    END LOOP;
    RETURN;
    END FN_GET_RECORDS;
    and this for the auxiliar package, object and table:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE REFCUR
    as
    TYPE refcur_t IS REF CURSOR RETURN objects_uptime%ROWTYPE;
    end REFCUR;
    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE OUPTIME AS OBJECT ( "OBJ_NAME"
    VARCHAR2(255), "IP" VARCHAR2(20), "STATUS" VARCHAR2(10),
    "DOE" DATE, "ENABLED" NUMBER(10, 1), "COMMENT00000"
    VARCHAR2(1000), "USERID" VARCHAR2(50), "OBJECTID" NUMBER(10,
    1), "MNTID" NUMBER(10, 1) )
    CREATE TYPE TUPTIME AS
    TABLE OF OUPTIME
    i call it this way:
    select * from table(FN_GET_RECORDS ())
    if anyone knows how to do the same in a shorter manner, tell me please.
    thanks to everybody for the help.

  • How do I return two values from a stored procedure into an "Execute SQL Task" within SQL Server 2008 R2

    Hi,
    How do I return two values from a
    stored procedure into an "Execute SQL Task" please? Each of these two values need to be populated into an SSIS variable for later processing, e.g. StartDate and EndDate.
    Thinking about stored procedure output parameters for example. Is there anything special I need to bear in mind to ensure that the SSIS variables are populated with the updated stored procedure output parameter values?
    Something like ?
    CREATE PROCEDURE [etl].[ConvertPeriodToStartAndEndDate]
    @intPeriod INT,
    @strPeriod_Length NVARCHAR(1),
    @dtStart NVARCHAR(8) OUTPUT,
    @dtEnd NVARCHAR(8) OUTPUT
    AS
    then within the SSIS component; -
    Kind Regards,
    Kieran. 
    Kieran Patrick Wood http://www.innovativebusinessintelligence.com http://uk.linkedin.com/in/kieranpatrickwood http://kieranwood.wordpress.com/

    Below execute statement should work along the parameter mapping which you have provided. Also try specifying the parameter size property as default.
    Exec [etl].[ConvertPeriodToStartAndEndDate] ?,?,? output, ? output
    Add a script task to check ssis variables values using,
    Msgbox(Dts.Variables("User::strExtractStartDate").Value)
    Do not forget to add the property "readOnlyVariables" as strExtractStartDate variable to check for only one variable.
