Procedure and package

What is the basic difference between procedure and package,as I know the usual aal differeneces but I want to know that whether it is having some another hidden difference? Please guide me.

Why are you not understand the problem my dear,The problem is not of concept.
The problem is that what is the differenece between procedure and package?
If you have any problem regarding concepts in Oracle by the way plz let me know,I can solve ur issues without getting angry. I have worth of two years experince,it doesnt mean I learnt everything.This is a way how we are helping to each other,we are not here to pull legs of each other,if you know the difference telme,leave it otherwise.

How to copy procedures and packages from one server to another?

Hi,
I have 439 packages and 178 procedures located in one server called MAXWELL.
I need to copy these objects to another server called TITAN.
The schema names is SPCBR in both servers.
So both servers have an instance running with this schema SPCBR.
SPCBR in TITAN server has their tables with table data which was generated by an export/import process from MAXWELL server.
However, procedures and packages were not copied by the export/import because I used the clause 'tables'.
Now, what can I do in order to equalize procedures and packages in both databases? I can't risk in damaging or duplicating data in my database located in TITAN server, ok?
Thanks,

Another simple alternative, according to AskTom (http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/ask/f?p=4950:8:::::F4950_P8_DISPLAYID:454220160386)

it extracts one procedure, function or package to a file. Thats it. If you
wanted to get all of the procedures in a schema extracted to the current working
directory, you would run a script:
--------------- getallcode ---------------------------
set termout off
set heading off
set feedback off
set linesize 50
spool xtmpx.sql
select '@getcode ' || object_name
from user_objects
where object_type in ( 'PROCEDURE', 'FUNCTION', 'PACKAGE' )
spool off
spool getallcode_INSTALL.sql
select '@' || object_name
from user_objects
where object_type in ( 'PROCEDURE', 'FUNCTION', 'PACKAGE' )
spool off
set heading on
set feedback on
set linesize 130
set termout on
@xtmpx.sql
---------------- eof ---------------------------------
You can see how to filter on that one by adding to the where clause if you want.
Just run @getallcode_INSTALL to run all of the scripts...

How can I compile all functions, procedures and packages with a script?

I need to compile all functions, procedures and packages of 5 schemas (users) with a script.
How can I do it?
Thanks!

you can create a script to select all invalid objects in those schemas Since Oracle 8 introduced NDS this approach has struck me as a trifle old fashioned. It's much simpler to loop round the query in PL/SQL and use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE to fire off the DDL statements. No scripts, no muss, no fuss.
Having said that, the problem with this approach and also with using DBMS_UTILITY.COMPILE_SCHEMA is that they do not compile all the invalid objects in dependency order. This may result in programs being invalidated by the subsequent compilation of dependencies. This is due to the introduction of Java into the database.
The UTLRP script is much better, because it (usually) avoids cyclic references. But you still may need to run it more than once.
In general it is better to avoid sledgehammer recompilations (like DBMS_UTILITY.COMPILE_SCHEMA, which starts by invalidating all the objects). If we have twenty invalid objects, nineteen of which are dependencies of the twentieth, we actually only need to recompile the master object, as recompiling it will trigger the recompilation of all the others.

Oracle stored Procedure and Packages in CR4E

Hi,
I want to use Stored Procedure in CR4E. I don't know how to use Stored Procedures and packages in Crystal Reports for Eclipse. In the data source explorer I can only see the Tables, Views and Stored Procedures but not packages from my Schema and when I can only drag & drop the Tables and Views into the Field Explorer, I can't drag & Drop the Stored Procedures.
I managed to attached the stored procedure from CR studio. I opened the report in CR4E and I can see the stored procedure and can preview the data. When I try to run the report and override the datasource, it throws oracle error saying "ORA-01008: Not all variables bound". When I tried to use the option
DBOptions._doNotVerifyDB
while replacing connection I get the this error

Please advice if Stored procedures and packages are supported in CR4E ?

Hi, Jack76,
According to the [CR4E Release Notes|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/cr4E/en/cr4e_relnotes_en.pdf] (available from the [CR4E Download page|http://www.businessobjects.com/campaigns/forms/downloads/crystal/eclipse/datasave.asp]), stored procedures are supported, as long as they don't use parameters that need null values.
I don't see any references to packages.

Administering Stored Procedures and Packages

I've read about WRAP utility but I don't know exactly what's it about. Here you are what ýI've read:ý
The code used to create the procedure ,package ,or function is available in the dictionary ýviews DBA_Source ,All_Source,and user_source except when you create them with the ýWRAP utility .the WRAP utility generates encrypted code, which only the Oracle server ýcan interpret .ý
does any one have any idea .
Thanks in advance

Generally, one uses the WRAP utility when
- You are delivering code to a third party
- You want to ensure that the third party isn't able to decompile your code.
If you built a CRM application with stored procedures and packages and you started selling that commercially, for example, you would use the WRAP utility to ensure that competitors couldn't reverse engineer your code and see how you did things.

"Run Script" (F5) Flacky Behavior with CREATE PROCEDURE and PACKAGE

When I have the following create statement in a SQL Worksheet and run the script using "Run Script" (F5), I get the "PROCEDURE bogus Compiled." message. Why does it not tell me that there was a compile error? The procedure is marked with a little red "X" in the connections pane.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE bogus IS
BEGIN
x := 1;
END;
/Also, when I have the following command in a SQL Worksheet and run the script using "Run Script" (F5), I get the "PROCEDURE bogus Compiled." message. The difference is that I removed the slash after the CREATE PROCEDURE command. I can go into that procedure in the database via the Connections pane, click on the compile button, and the procedure compiles with no errors. Why does it not compile in a script when missing the slash?
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE bogus IS
BEGIN
NULL;
END;I noticed the same flaky behavior with CREATE PACKAGE BODY as well. This is in version 1.0.0.14.67 on Windows XP. Has this been fixed in the latest version?
Mike

I found a number of earlier posts on this (going back to at least v804), but I cannot find a thread with a response from the SQL Developer team - see:
Package compilation error
Succesful compilation message and Compiling Invalid Objects
Creating a stored procedure from a file does not show compilation errors
Re: Syntax Error Feedback
I assume that it is just a bug with SQL Developer that it does not check for compilation errors when determining the status message to display (ie "PROCEDURE bogus Compiled"). At least now we get the little red cross on the navigator to tell us it is invalid :)

How to call procedure and package in BI

IN OBIEE how to call procedure- function and pass parameter in it.??
Thanks
Jatin.

Do you mean DB function. Check this link:
http://oracle-bi.siebelunleashed.com/articles/callingdb-function-in-obiee/
For OBIEE 11g, you have additional options to make calls with Action Framework. For now, I think the above link will help.

Error while creating procedure and package

Hi,
I am getting an error while creating an procedure
create or replace procedure mke_test (mke_gender varchar2) is
begin
declare global temporary table mag_hotline_glob
INDIVIDUAL_ID NUMBER,
ONE_MONTH NUMBER,
THREE_MONTH NUMBER,
SIX_MONTH NUMBER,
TWELVE_MONTH NUMBER,
CHILDREN_PRES VARCHAR2(1 BYTE)
) with replace on commit preserve rows not logged;
begin
insert into mag_hotline_glob
select * from magazine_gender;
end;
end;
can anybody plz suggest

It's a total mess. You need to read the documentation first.
Create your table separately
CREATE global temporary table mag_hotline_glob(INDIVIDUAL_ID NUMBER,
                                            ONE_MONTH NUMBER,
                                            THREE_MONTH NUMBER,
                                            SIX_MONTH NUMBER,
                                            TWELVE_MONTH NUMBER,
                                            CHILDREN_PRES VARCHAR2(1 BYTE)) with replace on commit preserve rows not logged;Then use the procedure (I don't know why, this INSERT statement you can fire yourself)
create or replace procedure mke_test(mke_gender varchar2) is
begin
    insert into mag_hotline_glob
      select * from magazine_gender;
end;If you want to create the GTT inside the procedure(should be avoided) then Use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE.
By the way, where are you using the IN parameter ? It' unnecessary.

Searching strings in procedures, function and packages (OWB)

Hi all,
I'm working on an OMB script to look for a string in procedures, function and packages in OWB. So far, I found how to do it for functions and procedures:
string match -nocase \*text_to_find* [OMBRETRIEVE FUNCTION 'my_function' GET PROPERTIES(IMPLEMENTATION)]
string match -nocase \*text_to_find* [OMBRETRIEVE PROCEDURE 'my_procedure' GET PROPERTIES(IMPLEMENTATION)]
I have tried something similar for packages but it didn't work. Does someone know how to do this search in packages? Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
Mauricio

Of course, if you are looking for a match in any source - including procedures and packages not imported into OWB, then OMB+ isn't going to be a ton of help as it won't be aware of those other packages.
In that case, you can always find those dependencies by doing a standard select owner, name, type, text from all_source where text like '%YOUR_SEARCH_CRITERIA%' query.
and you can embed that in your OMB+ using the Java/SQL library: How to run SQL from OMB+

Insert existing procedures into packages

hi all,
i have
begin
pg_reins_flat_file.pr_load_temp('1','sr_pre_inforce.txt');
pg_reins_flat_file.pr_load_temp('2','sr_pre_spinforce.txt');
end;
i need create a new procedures to insert into my exisiting packages.
wat i shud do ? tks.

I'm not sure that I really understand what you're asking here.
If you want to create a new procedure oin the PG_REINS_FLAT_FILE package, you'd just have to edit that package spec (assuming you want to create a public procedure) and package body to add the new procedure. You don't insert procedures into a package.

Copy all fucntions, proecdures and packages to another DB

Hi
I hope someone can help me. I don't normally have to do this so I am at a bit of a loss as to the best way to do this.
I need to copy all functions, procedures and packages with a specific prefix (long story - nothing to do with me) along with their grants and synonyms to another database (dev to many other dbs, not just schemas ). How is best to do this? I work directly in development so this is usually taken care of and if i'm aksed its a quick execute of the package etc from souce control but obviously I don't want to be doing that.
Any pointers would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Vicky

This is great but I have just realised I face another probelm currently.
I do not have direct access to the directory on the server where datapump files are located (and I assumed saved during an export. I don't have DBA rights either. Is there any ohter way of me generating scripts etc or should I just use a bat file and execute each source file one after another? and generate synonyms and grants using a sql command?
just for info, basically I am responsible for all custom code so need to be able to move it around as requested.
Again, sorry for asking, this is trivial but I would rather make sure I am doing this the right way.
Thanks
Vicky
