Problem in using ref cursor

I have a procedure which is using one ref cursor as OUT paramater. Now when I call this procedure, it gives me the following error:
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected CURSER got NUMBER
ORA-06512: at "APPS.ORDER_RETURN1", line 8
ORA-06512: at "APPS.ORDER_RETURN2", line 4
ORA-06512: at line 1
Below is my code
PROCEDURE ORDER_RETURN1(p_order OUT sys_refcursor) IS
TYPE OE_ORDER_rcur IS REF CURSOR;
rcur OE_ORDER_rcur;
BEGIN
OPEN rcur FOR
SELECT ORDER_NUMBER FROM OE_ORDER_HEADERS_ALL WHERE ROWNUM < 4;
FETCH rcur INTO p_order;
CLOSE rcur;
END ORDER_RETURN1;
PROCEDURE ORDER_RETURN2 IS
OE_ORDER_rcur11 sys_refcursor;
BEGIN
ORDER_RETURN1(OE_ORDER_rcur11);
end;
I tried to call proc ORDER_RETURN1 with the help of proc ORDER_RETURN2, but no change, it gives me same error if i call the first proc ORDER_RETURN1 or i call ORDER_RETURN2.
I am stuck with this problem, I had used ref cursor in procedure but not able to call the procedure which uses ref cursor as OUT parameter.
Please help me to resolve this.
Thanks
Nidhi..

Cursors are not closed when using Ref Cursor Query in a report ORA-01000

Dear Experts
Oracel database 11g,
developer suite 10.1.2.0.2,
application server 10.1.2.0.2,
Windows xp platform
For a long time, I'm hitting ORA-01000
I have a 2 group report (master and detail) using Ref Cusor query, when this report is run, I found that it opens several cursors (should be only one cursor) for the detail query although it should not, I found that the number of these cursors is equal to the number of master records.
Moreover, after the report is finished, these cursors are not closed, and they are increasing cumulatively each time I run the report, and finally the maximum number of open cursors is exceeded, and thus I get ORA-01000.
I increased the open cursors parameter for the database to an unbeleivable value 30000, but of course it will be exceeded during the session because the cursors are increasing cumulatively.
I Found that this problem is solved when using only one master Ref Cursor Query and create a breake group, the problem is solved also if we use SQL Query instead of Ref Query for the master and detail queries, but for some considerations, I should not use neither breake group nor SQL Query, I have to use REF Cursor queries.
Is this an oracle bug , and how can I overcome ?
Thanks

Thank you Inol for your answer, However
Ref Cursor give me felxibility to control the query, for example see the following query :
function QR_1RefCurDS return DEF_CURSORS.JOURHEAD_REFCUR is
temp_JOURHEAD DEF_CURSORS.JOURHEAD_refcur;

Using ref cursor in after parameter form in reports

hi everyone,
I have problem in usage of ref cursor in after parameter form. My actual requirement is I have user parameter :p_minval, :p_maxval. The values into these user parameters will be coming dynamically using sql_statement as shown below
select min(empid),max(empid) into :p_minval, :p_maxval from emp where empid in (:p_emp);
I will be writing this query in the after parameter form
:p_emp is a lexical parameter as per me but the after parameter form is taking it as a bind variable. so I decided to define a ref cursor and then use it for retrieve. But when I use ref cursor it is returning pl/sql error 591 saying that this is not supported by client side can anyone help me plz..
The following is the code i tried to use in after parameter form
function afterPform return boolean is
type rc is ref cursor;
l_rc rc;
sqlstmt varchar2(512);
begin
sqlstmt:='select min(empid),max(empid) from emp where empid in ('||:p_emp||')';
open l_rc for
select max(empid) from emp where empid in ('||:p_emp||')';
fetch l_rc into :p_maxval;
close l_rc;
return(true);
end;
thanks & regards

Report using ref cursor or dynamic Sql

Hi,
I never create a report using a ref cursor or a dynamic sql. Could any one help me to solve the below issue.
I have 2 tables.
1. Student_Record
2. Student_csv_help
Student_Record the main table where the data is stored.
Student_csv_help will contain the all the column names of the Student_record.
CREATE TABLE Student_CSV_HELP
ENTRY_ID NUMBER,
RAW_NAME VARCHAR2(40 BYTE),
DESC_NAME VARCHAR2(1000 BYTE),
IN_OUTPUT_LIST VARCHAR2(1 BYTE)
SET DEFINE OFF;
Insert into TOA_CSV_HELP
(ENTRY_ID, RAW_NAME, DESC_NAME, IN_OUTPUT_LIST)
Values
(1, 'S_ID', 'Student ID', 'Y');
Insert into TOA_CSV_HELP
(ENTRY_ID, RAW_NAME, DESC_NAME, IN_OUTPUT_LIST)
Values
(2, 'S_Name', 'Student Name', 'Y');
Insert into TOA_CSV_HELP
(ENTRY_ID, RAW_NAME, DESC_NAME, IN_OUTPUT_LIST)
Values
(3, 'S_Join_date', 'Joining Date', 'Y');
Insert into TOA_CSV_HELP
(ENTRY_ID, RAW_NAME, DESC_NAME, IN_OUTPUT_LIST)
Values
(4, 'S_Address', 'Address', 'Y');
Insert into TOA_CSV_HELP
(ENTRY_ID, RAW_NAME, DESC_NAME, IN_OUTPUT_LIST)
Values
(5, 'S_Fee', 'Tution Fee', 'N');
commit;
CREATE TABLE Student_record
S_ID NUMBER,
S_Name VARCHAR2(100 BYTE),
S_Join_date date,
S_Address VARCHAR2(360 BYTE),
S_Fee Number
Insert into Student_record
(S_ID, S_Name, S_Join_date, S_Address,S_Fee)
Values
(101, 'john', TO_DATE('12/17/2009 08:00:00', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'), 'CA-94777', 2000);
Insert into Student_record
(S_ID, S_Name, S_Join_date, S_Address,S_Fee)
Values
(102, 'arif', TO_DATE('12/18/2009 08:00:00', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'), 'CA-94444', 3000);
Insert into Student_record
(S_ID, S_Name, S_Join_date, S_Address,S_Fee)
Values
(103, 'raj', TO_DATE('12/19/2009 08:00:00', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'), 'CA-94555', 2500);
Insert into Student_record

(104, 'singh', TO_DATE('12/20/2009 08:00:00', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'), 'CA-94666', 2000);
Commit;
Now my requirement is:
I have a form with Student_record data block. When i Click on print Button on this form. It will open another window which has Student_CSV_HELP.DESC_NAME and a check box before this.
The window look like as below:
check_box       DESC_NAME+
X                   S_ID+
--                   S_Name+
X                   S_Join_date+
X                   S_Address+
--                  S_Fee+
X means check box checked.+
-- means check box Unchecked.+
After i selected these check boxes i will send 2 parameters to the report server
1. a string parameter to the report server which has the value 'S_ID,S_Join_date,S_Address' (p_column_name := 'S_ID,S_Join_date,S_Address');
2. the s_id value from the student_record block (p_S_id := '101');
Now my requirement is when i click on run. I need a report like as below:
Student ID : 101+
Joining Date : 12/17/2009 08:00:00+
Address : CA-94777+
This is nothing but the ref cursor should run like as below:
Select S_id from student_record block S_id = :p_S_id;
Select S_Join_date from student_record block S_id = :p_S_id;
Select S_Address from student_record block S_id = :p_S_id;
So, according to my understanding i have to select the columns at the run time. I dont have much knowledge in creating reports using ref cursor or dynamic sql.
So please help me to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Plain sql should satisfy your need. Try ....
Select S_id, S_Join_date, S_Address
from student_record
where S_id = :p_S_id

How to update data returned using REF CURSOR

Hi all,
I am trying to update updated data in a gridview but the update button seem to do nothing as i retrieve data using REF CURSOR.
Let me describe the architecture of my application first. I'm trying to implement best practice whenever possible. I am following the data access tutorial published in www.asp.net , the only difference is that i have an Oracle (10g) database. So I split my application into three layers, data access, business logic, and presentation layer. I'm also writing all queries in an Oracle package.
So I have my Oracle packages that perform CRUD operations. Then I have an xsd file that define dataTable based on the package procedure. My business logic layer then calls functions defined in the xsd file. And finally a detailsView control that uses an ObjectDataSource to call business logic functions.
In a nutshell, I am just trying to update records retrieved using REF CURSOR. Your help is very much appreciated. Please let me know if further details are required. Cheers,

In the DataSet (xsd) where your DataTable is defined, you just need to add additional methods to the TableAdapter to handle insert, update and delete, either with SQL or by mapping to stored procedures.
Alternatively in code, create an OracleDataAdapter and supply its InsertCommand, UpdateCommand and DeleteCommand.

Using Ref cursor in Bpel

Hi,
I need to use ref cursors in bpel.
Basically calling a stored proc using DB Adapter , which returns a Ref cursor.
Not able to get it work, any suggestion help is greatly appreciated.
Also followed: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/integrate.1013/b28994/adptr_db.htm#CHDDDDJI
But its quite abstract.
Thanks !!

Hi Raj,
I am able to use the REF cursor with BPEL.
I am able to pass the resultset from Database using a REF cursor to a BPEL variable .
When you create a BPEL variable , create it with message type as the output message type of the REF Cursor.

/* i want something like this to work, this is not working, giving missing variable name error */
mySzSql := 'select col1, col2, col3
from
Table1
Where
rowid = ''AAEWNEABXAAAAkxAAA''';
open current_cur for mySzSql;
fetch current_cur into tbl_rec;
close current_cur;
End;
I do have the list of desired columns which I am looking to fetch, so after taking that in the record type, how should i get their values. Is it possible to traverse tbl_rec declared above and if column name matches then I will store the value in the array and finally return this array.
Can somebody please tell me how to do this.
Thanks

It appears that this is a followup to How to loop through columns selected by select clause which is itself a followup to [url="
How to execute dynamic sql"]this earlier thread.
Assuming these are intended to be followup questions, can we please stick to a single thread? That makes it a lot easier to understand the situation and follow the conversation. Starting multiple threads makes it harder to follow the conversation.

Problem using REF CURSOR in JDBC

i have several stored procedures and functions that return REF CURSOR object as output. however, i'm noticing that if
no rows are returned within the cursor, the JDBC driver is throwing a "No more data to read from socket" exception.
i'm using the Oracle Thin JDBC driver v8.1.6 for JDK 1.2.
any help is appreciated.
thanks,

I am not able to reproduce the problem. Could you post a testcase so that we can follow it up?
Thanks.

Problem in passing ref cursor values as parameter in where clau.Most Urgent

Problem:
1) I have used normal cursor (C_hubmsgid_set) with some select statement such as grouping and all.
After executing the query it will return some resultset to the specified cursor.
2) I am trying to use another cursor which is ref cursor but the problem is
I want to give all the resultset based on all the conditions to the ref cursor.
But the cursor will get only the last record due to overwriting .how to get all
the result set in a ref cursor like
cursor c1 is select .....
loop
open refcursor for
Select * from ....where condition
end loop
After this the refcursor( p_sysaudithistory_cur) which should have all the resultset matched by the where condition.
3. It should be java compatible one.
4. I am not able to match cursor row = IN Pameter value
Below is the query:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE SP_TEST_audit_history2 (
p_start IN date,
p_end IN date,
p_msgcode IN varchar2,
p_partnername IN varchar2,
p_status IN varchar2,
p_locationname IN varchar2,
p_custbusunit IN varchar2,
p_sysaudithistory_cur OUT plutotypes.ref_cursor,
p_status1 OUT NUMBER) AS
l_status NUMBER := 0;
CURSOR C_hubmsgid_set IS
SELECT DISTINCT MAX(tfm.datetime) datetime, tfm.hubmsgid
FROM tfm_status tfm, vw_msgcode_part_locn vw
WHERE
tfm.datetime >= NVL(p_start, TO_DATE('01/01/1981','DD/MM/YYYY')) AND
tfm.datetime <= NVL(p_end, TO_DATE('31/12/9999','DD/MM/YYYY')) AND
tfm.msgcode LIKE NVL(p_msgcode,'%') AND
vw.msgcode = tfm.msgcode
AND vw.partnername LIKE NVL(p_partnername,'%')
AND tfm.status LIKE NVL(p_status,'%')
AND vw.locationname LIKE NVL(p_locationname,'%')
AND vw.custbusunit LIKE NVL(p_custbusunit,'%')
AND rownum < 250
GROUP BY tfm.hubmsgid
ORDER BY datetime DESC;
/* Loop through the Cursor */
BEGIN
BEGIN
OPEN p_sysaudithistory_cur
FOR
SELECT
tfm.hubmsgid ,
tfm.status || '-'|| nvl2(tfm.exception_id,'FAILED','OK') ,
tfm.datetime,
tfm.exception_id
FROM tfm_status tfm
WHERE tfm.hubmsgid = c_hubmsgids.hubmsgid /* here only i am getting error*/
AND tfm.datetime = c_hubmsgids.datetime
AND tfm.status like NVL(p_status,'%')
and rownum =1;
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND
THEN
l_status := 1;
END;
p_status1 := l_status;
END;

Calling stored proc from java using ref cursor

Hi All,
We have a requirement to display all the records from a table on a JAVA screen. Due to some constraints, we have to write the query in the stored proc. We are trying to return a result set from the stored proc to the java code by using a ref cursor. Please refer to the code below.
Following is the PL/SQL proc �
procedure sp_user_course2(v1 OUT ref_cursor, persid in varchar2) as
begin
open v1 for
SELECT lrn_exp_id, crs_name FROM emp_crs
WHERE personid = persid;
end;
Here ref_cursor is of TYPE REF CURSOR declared in the package specification.
The java code is �
Callable stmt = conn.prepareCall("call sp_user_course2(?,?)");
stmt.registerOutParameter(1,OracleTypes.CURSOR);
stmt.setString(2,emplId);
stmt.execute();
OracleCallableStatement tstmt = (OracleCallableStatement) stmt;
ResultSet rs = tstmt.getCursor (1);
When I run the program, I get the following error (at stmt.execute()):
[Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-06553: PLS-306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'SP_USER_COURSE2' 6553
Can anyone tell me what could be the problem with this code? I have read somewhere that REF CURSOR feature is available from Oracle 9i onwards. If so, then, is there any workaround for mapping REF CURSOR to Resultsets in Oracle 8i?

These may help

Need Help: Using Ref Cursor in ProC to call a function within a Package

I'm calling a function within a package that is returning a REF CURSOR.
As per the Oracle Pro*C Programmer's Guide, I did the following:
1) declared my cursor with a: EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION and declared the cursor as: SQL_CURSOR my_cursor;
2) I allocated the cursor as: EXEC SQL ALLOCATE :my_cursor;
3) Via a EXEC SQL.....END-EXEC begin block
I called the package function and assign the return value to my cursor
e.g. my_cursor := package.function(:host1, :host2);
Now, the only difference between my code and the example given in the Pro*C Programmer's Guide is that the example calls a PROCEDURE within a package that passes back the REF CURSOR as an OUT host variable.
Whereas, since I am calling a function, the function ASSIGNS the return REF CURSOR in the return value.
If I say my_cursor := package.function(:host1, :host2); I get a message stating, "PLS-00201: identifier MY_CURSOR" must be declared"
If I say :my_cursor := package.function(:host1, :host2); I get a message stating, "ORA-01480: trailing null missing from STR bind value"
I just want to call a package function and assign the return value to a REF CURSOR variable. There must be a way of doing this. I can do this easily in standard PL/SQL. How can this be done in Pro*C ???
Thanks for any help.

Folks, I figured it out. For those who may face this problem in the future you may want to take note for future reference.
Oracle does not allow you to assign the return value of a REF CURSOR from a FUNCTION ( not Procedure - - there is a difference) directly to a host variable. This is the case even if that host variable is declared a CURSOR variable.
The trick is as follows: Declare the REF CURSOR within the PL/SQL BEGIN Block, using the TYPE statement, that will contain the call to the package function. On the call, you then assign the return REF CURSOR value that the function is returning to your REF CURSOR variable declared in the DECLARE section of the EXEC SQL .... END-EXEC PL/SQL Block.
THEN, assign the REF CURSOR variable that was populated from the function call to your HOST cursor varaible. Then fetch this HOST Cursor variable into your Host record structure variable. Then you can deference individual fields as need be within your C or C++ code.
I hope this will help someone facing a deadline crunch. Happy computing !

Using ref cursor in where clause

I have a stored procedure (package procedure) that returns a ref cursor as a parameter. This procedure performs a query and returns the cursor. The procedure calls another stored procedure within the package. This second procedure also returns a ref cursor. I want to do my query on the results of the cursor returned by the second procedure. Hopefully the example below is okay.. "I had to change names to protect the blah blah...."
For example:
TYPE out_cursor IS REF CURSOR;
TYPE IDTable IS TABLE OF table1.ID%TYPE;
PROCEDURE A
v_ID IN NUMBER,
v_Param2 IN NUMBER,
v_FromClause IN VARCHAR2, -- ignore for now
v_WhereClause IN VARCHAR2, -- ignore for now
v_retval OUT NUMBER,
the_cursor OUT out_cursor
IS
v_SQLString VARCHAR2(2048);
v_cursor1 out_cursor;
v_tabIDs IDTable;
BEGIN
v_SQLString := '';
packageA.procedureA(v_ID, v_retval, v_cursor1);
-- this does not work
-- I get ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
v_SQLString := 'select distinct * from v_cursor1';
-- I found this on the message board but
-- it did not compile.
-- local collection types not allowed in SQL statements
FETCH v_cTSFiles BULK COLLECT INTO v_tabIDs;
v_SQLString := 'select distinct * from table1 WHERE table1.ID in (select * from table(v_tabIDs))';
OPEN the_cursor FOR v_SQLString;
END;

You can use that second technique but as the error message says, "local collection types not allowed in SQL statements". You need to create a schema type instead.
[sql]
create or replace type ttab_number is table of number
create or replace procedure p is
tab_id ttab_number;
refcur sys_refcursor;
begin
open refcur for
select user_id
from all_users;
fetch refcur bulk collect into tab_id;
close refcur;
for rec in (
select *
from all_users
where user_id in (
select *
from table(cast(tab_id as ttab_number)))
) loop
dbms_output.put_line(rec.username);
end loop;
end;
