Return records from Stored Procedure to Callable Statement

Hi All,
I am createing a web application to display a students score card.
I have written a stored procedure in oracle that accepts the student roll number as input and returns a set of records as output containing the students scoring back to the JSP page where it has to be put into a table format.
how do i register the output type of "records" from the stored function in oracle in the "registerOutParameter" method of the "callable" statement in the JSP page.
if not by this way is there any method using which a "stored function/procedure" returning "record(s)" to the jsp page called using "callable" statement be retrieved to be used in the page. let me know any method other that writing a query for the database in the JSP page itself.

I have a question for you:
If the stored procedure is doing nothing more than generating a set of results why are you even using one?
You could create a view or write a simple query like you mentioned.
If you're intent on going the stored procedure route, then I have a suggestion. Part of the JDBC 2.0 spec allows you to basically return an object from a CallableStatement. Its a little involved but can be done. An article that I ran across a while back really helped me to figure out how to do this. There URL to it is as follows:
http://www.fawcette.com/archives/premier/mgznarch/javapro/2000/03mar00/bs0003/bs0003.asp
Pay close attention to the last section of the article: Persistence of Structured Types.
Here's some important snippets of code:
String UDT_NAME = "SCHEMA_NAME.PRODUCT_TYPE_OBJ";
cstmt.setLong(1, value1);
cstmt.setLong(2, value2);
cstmt.setLong(3, value3);
// By updating the type map in the connection object
// the Driver will be able to convert the array being returned
// into an array of LikeProductsInfo[] objects.
java.util.Map map = cstmt.getConnection().getTypeMap();
map.put(UDT_NAME, ProductTypeObject.class);
super.cstmt.registerOutParameter(4, java.sql.Types.STRUCT, UDT_NAME);
* This is the class that is being mapped to the oracle object.
* There are two methods in the SQLData interface.
public class ProductTypeObject implements java.sql.SQLData, java.io.Serializable
    * Implementation of method declared in the SQLData interface. This method
    * is called by the JDBC driver when mapping the UDT, SCHEMA_NAME.Product_Type_Obj,
    * to this class.
    * The object being returned contains a slew of objects defined as tables,
    * these are retrieved as java.sql.Array objects.
     public void readSQL(SQLInput stream, String typeName) throws SQLException
        String[] value1 = (String[])stream.readArray().getArray();
        String[] value2 = (String[])stream.readArray().getArray();
     public void writeSQL(SQLOutput stream) throws SQLException
}You'll also need to create Oracles Object. The specification for mine follows:
TYPE Detail_Type IS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(1024);
TYPE Product_Type_Obj AS OBJECT (
value1 Detail_Type,
value2 Detail_Type,
value3 Detail_Type,
value4 Detail_Type,
value5 Detail_Type,
value6 Detail_Type,
value7 Detail_Type,
value8 Detail_Type);Hope this helps,
Zac

Ora-06550 returning data from Stored Procedure and Entity Data Model

Hi.
I'm creating an application that uses a WCF Service to return data. I also created a proyect with the EDMX design and mapped most of my DBModel to a classes context. I have added some of the procedures as well. One of them receive some parameters and return a Sys_RefCursor, that is populated according to the parameters.
I have declared the "<add >" tags in the Web.Config and imported the function of the Procedure. When I call the Asyncronous function I get different exceptions:
1. If I call the function, with all of the parameters i get:
Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException: ORA-06550: línea 1, columna 8:
PLS-00306: número o tipos de argumentos erróneos al llamar a
'SP_HECHOSJURITER'
ORA-06550: línea 1, columna 8:
(wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'SP_HECHOSJURITER')
2. If i just set 1 parameter in the SP, returning the same type of data, I get:
Error al recibir la respuesta HTTP a
http://localhost/Procalculo.CGFM.SIGOC.DatosServices/ServiceDatos.svc.
(failed to receive http response. error 12152)
3. If I don't set any parameters in the procedure, it works fine, and return correct data.
It exclusively happen with one entity.
Any clue?
I appreciate any help.

When you return result sets from stored procedures to Entity Framework, you are very likely using implicit result sets. Implicit result sets don't need to be declared as a parameter in code, only in the <add> tags to define the metadata in the .NET config file.
For example, in the EF Oracle By Example, you'll see that the stored procedure in the function import has three parameters, but only two are declared in the code. The third one was defined in the config file.

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.

OCI8: returning cursors from stored procedures

The short version of my question is:
In OCI8, how do open a cursor from the database stored procedure, return it to my C++ program and fetch from it, given that in OCI8 cursors and cursor functions are becoming obsoleted?
The long version of the same question is:
I am converting my C++ code from the Oracle 7.3 OCI driver to the Oracle8 OCI driver. One thing I did very frequently in Oracle 7.3 OCI code is open a multi-row select cursor within a stored procedure and return that cursor to my program. In the program, I would then do the fetching with the returned cursor. This was very useful, as it allows me to change the queries in the stored procedure (for example, to append information to certain columns or make some data in all uppercase) without recompiling the application due to a changed SQL string.
My 7.3 psuedocode is as follows:
stored procedure def:
TYPE refCurTyp IS REF CURSOR;
FUNCTION LoadEmployeeData RETURN refCurTyp;
stored procedure body:
FUNCTION LoadEmployeeData RETURN refCurTyp IS
aCur refCurTyp;
BEGIN
OPEN aCur FOR
SELECT emp_id, emp_name
FROM employee_table
ORDER BY emp_name;
return aCur;
END;
OCI code: // all functions are simplified, not actual parameter listing
// declare main cursor variable #1 and return cursor variable #2
Cda_Def m_CDAstmt, m_CDAfunction;
// open both cursors
oopen(m_CDAstmt, ...);
oopen(m_CDAfunction, ...);
// bind cursor variable to cursor #2
oparse(&m_CDAstmt, "BEGIN :CUR := MYPACKAGE.LoadEmployeeData; END;");
obindps(&m_CDAstmt, SQLT_CUR, ":CUR", &m_CDAfunction);
// run cursor #1
oexn(&m_CDAstmt);
// bind variables from cursor #2, and fetch
odefineps(&m_CDAfunction, 1, SQLT_INT, &m_iEmpId);
odefineps(&m_CDAfunction, 2, SQLT_CHAR, &m_pEmpName);
while (!ofen(&m_CDAfunction))
// loop: do something with fetch
// values placed in m_iEmpID and m_pEmpName
This works perfectly, and has really helped to make my code more maintainable. Problem is, in Oracle 8 OCI both cursors and the cursor functions (such as oopen()) are becoming obsoleted. Now it uses statement and environment handles. I know I can still use Cda_Def and cursors--for a while--within OCI8, but I need to know the official up-to-date method of returning a cursor from the database and fetching within my C++ code. Any code fragment, or explanation of what I need to do in OCI8 would be appreciated (perhaps I need to bind to a statement handle instead? But the stored procedure still returns a cursor.)
The Oracle8 OCI has a new SQLT_ type, SQLT_RSET, which the header file defines as "result set type". Unfortunately, it's almost completely undocumented in the official documentation. Am I supposed to use this instead of the obsolete SQLT_CUR?
Thanks,
Glen Mazza

Email me diorectly and I will get you some code that might help. I fail to see the relevance of posting this type of information in the JDeveloper forum.

Returning object from stored procedures

I am having a lot of trouble finding an example to demonstate how I return a Java/DB Object from a Java Stored Procedure. All the examples I have been able to find return one of the native types (VARCHAR, NUMBER, etc). As an example...
public static DataPoint getPoint() {
  return new DataPoint(
      new Timestamp(System.currentTimeMillis()),
      new BigDecimal(50.0));
Assuming DataPoint is a Java class mapped to an Oracle Data Type created via the following statement.
create or replace type data_point as object (
  p_date date,
  p_data number
After loading and publishing the procedure I get no (zero, 0) rows returned when calling. I should be getting one row returned.
Thanks,
Mike

Mike,
You said:
Assuming DataPoint is a Java class mapped to an Oracle
Data TypeI think your assumption is incorrect.
In any case, isn't this what "TopLink" is used for?
(I don't know, since I don't use "TopLink".)
Have you tried the TopLink/JPA forum?
Good Luck,
Avi.

Returning recordset from stored procedures

Hi
I am trying to get a stored procedure to return multiple values (i.e. a recordset) and want to access them from JDBC. Is that possible?
Frankie =:>

You can return nested tables and varrays using JDBC. See chapter 10 of the Oracle JDBC Developer's Guide.

How to capture return value from stored procedure?

Hi All,
I want to capture the retun values from this procedure to a table - CALL SYS.GET_OBJECT_DEFINITION('SCHEMA_NAME', 'TABLE_NAME').
The below approach is not working -
Insert into STG.STG_DDL
Call SYS.GET_OBJECT_DEFINITION('DWG', 'DWG_SITE')
Could you please have a look on the same?
Thank you,

Returning rowcount and resultset from stored procedure

Hello,
In SQL Server you can return multiple resultsets from stored procedure by simple SELECT statement. But in Oracle, you have to use SYS_REFCURSOR.
Sample code:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE sp_resultset_test IS
t_recordset OUT SYS_REFCURSOR
BEGIN
OPEN t_recordset FOR
SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEE;
END sp_resultset_test;
Is there any other way in Oracle 10 or 11 ?
Thank You.

What is the requirement? Oracle is far more flexible than SQL-Server... with numerous features that do not exist in SQL-Server. (Fact)
One of the biggest mistakes you can make is to treat Oracle like SQL-Server... trying to match feature A1 in SQL-Server to feature B3 in Oracle.
Does not work that way.. rather then stick to SQL-Server as SQL-Server does SQL-Server specific features far better than Oracle.
So instead of trying to map what a T-SQL stored proc to do to an Oracle ref cursor (even to the extent of using that very silly sp_ prefix to name the proc), tell us the problem and requirements... That way we can tell you what Oracle features and options are best used to solve that problem - instead of competing in some unknown feature comparison event with SQL-Server.

Returning SQL cursor from Stored Procedure

Hi,
I have a query regarding returning sql cursor from stored procedure to java in oracle 11g.
I want to query some data ex: my query returns A, B, C. Also, now I want to query some other data ex: D, E, F. Now I want to return this data as an sql cursor as a single row . Example: A,B,C,D,E,F. Is it possible to return/create a cursor in stored procedure?
assume both query returns equal number of rows.. however both are not related to each other..

assume both query returns equal number of rows.. however both are not related to each other..It sounds like what you need is a ref cursor.
First thing to remember though is that cursors do not hold any data (see: {thread:id=886365})
In it's simplest form you would be creating a procedure along these lines...

URGENT : Return Bulk data from Stored Procedure

Hi,
Tell me, how do I return a bulk of data which
does not exist in the data base
but is concluded while the Stored Procedure is executed
from the Stored procedure
to the C++ program.
For Example:
Table ABC
Field1 Field2 Field3
A 1 3
B 1 5
C 2 10
Table DEF
Field1 Field2 Field3
D 10 24
E 3 16
F 8 19
SP_TESTING
Depending on the values in both the tables
for some range of conditions,
a conclusion X is derived for each range value of the
condition range.
Now I need to return this bulk of data X with the
condition they belong to
back to the C++ code calling it....
NOTE : A stored procedure is requited as there is a lot
of processing
required before we conclude the result X for each value
in the condition range.
If I execute this code from C++ instead of Stored
procedure
it is very slow and speed is a prime requirement of my
system.
Also i'm not using any MFC class to access database.
I'm using ConnectionPtr, RecordsetPtr and _CommandPtr
from msado15.dll for database access...
One solution to this could be use of Temp tables.
As this process is used by a lot of different stored
procedures having a common
temp table to all will need something like 50 NUMERIC
fields, 50 VARCHAR fields
and so on, which doesn't seem like a very good solution
to this problem.
Sounds like something I would have done while in school,
implement a dumb solution.
So, please suggest me a solution as to how do I return
bulk data in the form
of recordsets from stored procedure.
Regards
Shruti

How to generate a report from stored procedure

I would like to generate a report from stored procedure.
I used to work on sql server. this can be done as easy as put a select statement at the end of stored procedure.
The resule can be displayed on the development IDE, like sql developer or consume by Java JDBC client.
is there equivalent way to do this in Oracle stored procedure?

Hi,
What type of report you are looking..for.. ??
As you said that "I used to work on sql server. this can be done as easy as put a select statement at the end of stored procedure. "
When you execute it will return the result set and you will display directly on the FrontEnd.. Is my Understanding is correct Up to here.
See, In oracle you have call some custom stored procedures as you did in SQL Sever, but you have return the Results Sets, with help of Out put paramter, Either Cursors or Varrays..
or Else you can generate the Html reports based on your requirement, HTML can be used in the stored procedures of Oracle which will generate for your, you need to code it.
I could not able get the relevant link for your reference.
I will get back to you on this.

Unable to create object from stored procedure universe

Dear All Experts,
I am facing a problem on unable to create object dimensions on a Stored procedure universe. Fyi, I have successfully insert a stored procedure ('SP_Sales') with input parameter (@date) into universe (Universe_1). But I unable create any object based on the the stored procedured ('SP_Sales') due to it show nothing from the Edit Select Statement of 'Object1', empty for Tables nd columns windows.
Thefore, i unable to drag data in WEBI when i select univese as "Universe_1", it will not sure any object. Please advise.
I am using XI4.0, MSSQL2008.

Hi ,
You wont be able to edit the object definitions.
u2022 Designer generates one table per selected stored procedure (or many
tables if multiple result sets) and one object per column returned by a
stored procedure.
u2022 The result set structure is determined when you describe the function.
Please refer chapter 7(Page 451) of below document for more details.

Hope this helps.

Updatable ADO recordset returned by a stored procedure

I am trying to have an updatable ADO recordset returned by a stored procedure.
However, LockType for this recordset is always adLockReadOnly.
What needs to be done to have LockType changed?
I am using the following simplified example from Oracle doc. According to Oracle® Provider for OLE DB Developer's Guide 10g Release 2,
the following ADO code sample sets the Updatability property on a command object to allow insert, delete, and update operations on the rowset object.
Dim Cmd As New ADODB.Command
Dim Rst As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim Con As New ADODB.Connection
Cmd.ActiveConnection = Con
Cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM emp"
Cmd.CommandType = adCmdText
cmd.Properties("IRowsetChange") = TRUE
Cmd.Properties("Updatability") = 7
' creates an updatable rowset
Set Rst = cmd.ExecuteHowever, the result is not updatable. Can you please advise.

Returning a REF CURSOR is certainly the easiest of the options, particularly if you're trying to use ADO. Without doing something really klunky, all your options are going to result in read-only result sets.
Assuming you have a procedure-based interface to your data, the easiest option is generally to do your own updates by explicitly calling the appropriate stored procedures.
As a bit of an aside, in order to offer updatable result sets, the ODBC/ OLE DB/ etc provider generally has to do something along the lines of
1) Take the SQL statement you pass in
2) Modify it to select the ROWID in addition to the other columns you're selecting
3) Store the ROWID internally and use that as a key to figure out which row to update
Once you eliminate the ability of the client to manipulate the query, you've pretty well eliminated the ability of the driver to implement generic APIs for updates. The client at that point has no idea which row(s) in which table(s) a particular value is coming from, so it has no idea how to do an update. You generally have to provide that knowledge by coding explicit updates.

Insert record using stored procedure

Dear all,
I want to insert record using stored procedure in form6i,
any help or suggestion will be appreciated.
regards
Kashif Ali

Kashif,
Could you please explain what you are trying to accomplish? Inserting records into a table from Forms is as simple as executing an INSERT statement in a Forms trigger or as complicated as overriding the Forms default INSERT functionality by defining your own On-Insert trigger. Your requirements will dictate where and how you do your INSERT.
