EclipseLink: call oracle StoredFunc with IN table type - oracle

Question

I'm trying to call an oracle stored function using eclipselink 2.6.5, the storedfunction has an oracle type input.
This is te stored func:
create or replace function TEST_FUNC(PAR1 IN VARCHAR2, PAR2 IN MY_TYPE_T)
return varchar2 is
begin
if PAR2 is null then
return (PAR1 || ' 0');
else
return(PAR1 || ' ' || PAR2.count);
end if;
end TEST_FUNC;
This is type declaration:
CREATE OR REPLACE MY_TYPE_T as table of MY_TYPE_R
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE MY_TYPE_R as object
(
COD_P VARCHAR2(3),
COD_S VARCHAR2(10)
)
This is the type mapping:
#Embeddable
#Struct(name="MY_TYPE_R", fields= {"COD_P", "COD_S"})
#PLSQLTable(
name="MY_TYPE_R",
compatibleType="MY_TYPE_T",
nestedType="MY_TYPE_R"
)
public class MyRecordType {
#Column(name="COD_P")
private String codP;
#Column(name="COD_S")
private String codS;
//costructors, getter and setter...
}
This is the stored mapping:
#NamedPLSQLStoredFunctionQuery(
name="testFunc",
functionName="TEST_FUNC",
returnParameter=#PLSQLParameter(
name="RESULT",
databaseType = "VARCHAR_TYPE"),
parameters = {
#PLSQLParameter(name = "firstParam", queryParameter="PAR1", databaseType = "VARCHAR_TYPE"),
#PLSQLParameter(name = "secondParam", queryParameter="PAR2", databaseType = "MY_TYPE_T"),
}
)
This is the call:
#Test
public void testFuncTest() {
List<MyRecordType> recTypeList = new ArrayList<MyRecordType>();
MyRecordType rec = new MyRecordType();
rec.setCodP("PValue");
rec.setCodS("SValue");
recTypeList.add(rec);
Query query = getEM().createNamedQuery("testFunc");
query.setParameter("firstParam", "FOO");
query.setParameter("secondParam", recTypeList);
Assert.assertEquals("FOO 1", query.getSingleResult());
}
When I execute the test I get:
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'TEST_FUNC'
Actually reading the documentation on #PLSQTable I'm a bit confused on the tree parameters:
name
compatibleType
nestedType
Anyone has some suggestion?

Answer 1

First you'll want to use the OracleObject annotation to define your fields into an Oracle object. It's somewhat duplicate to Struct but required anyways.
#OracleObject(
name = "MY_TYPE_R"
, javaType = MyRecordType.class
, fields = {
#PLSQLParameter(name = "COD_P")
,#PLSQLParameter(name = "COD_S")
}
)
For the PLSQLTable you want
#NamedPLSQLStoredFunctionQuery(
name="testFunc",
functionName="TEST_FUNC",
returnParameter=#PLSQLParameter(
name="RESULT",
databaseType = "VARCHAR_TYPE"),
parameters = {
#PLSQLParameter(name = "PAR1", queryParameter="PAR1", databaseType = "VARCHAR_TYPE"),
#PLSQLParameter(name = "PAR2", queryParameter="PAR2", databaseType = "MY_TYPE_T"),
}
)
so the name needs to match what's in your function. The PLSQL table piece looks right, I believe the OracleObject part was your missing component and causing your error.
