pass pl/sql record as arguement to procedure - oracle

Question

How to pass pl/sql record type to a procedure :
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY PKGDeleteNumber
AS
PROCEDURE deleteNumber (
list_of_numbers IN List_Numbers
)
IS
i_write VARCHAR2(5);
BEGIN
--do something
END deleteNumber;
END PKGDeleteNumber;
/
In this procedure deleteNumber I have used List_Numbers, which is a record type. The package declaration for the same is :
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE PKGDeleteNumber
AS
TYPE List_Numbers IS RECORD (
IID NUMBER
);
TYPE list_of_numbers IS TABLE OF List_Numbers;
PROCEDURE deleteNumber (
list_of_numbers IN List_Numbers
);
END PKGDeleteNumber;
I have to execute the procedure deleteNumber passing a list of values. I inserted numbers in temp_test table, then using a cursor U fetched the data from it :
SELECT *
BULK COLLECT INTO test1
FROM temp_test;
Now, to call the procedure I am using
execute immediate 'begin PKGDELETENUMBER.DELETENUMBER(:1); end;'
using test1;
I have tried many other things as well(for loop, dbms_binding, etc). How do I pass a pl/sql record type as argument to the procedure?
EDIT:
Basically, I want to pass a list of numbers, using native dynamic sql only...
adding the table temp_test defn (no index or constraint):
create table test_temp (
IID number
);
and then inserted 1,2,3,4,5 using normal insert statements.
For this solution,
In a package testproc
CREATE TYPE num_tab_t IS TABLE OF NUMBER;
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE my_dyn_proc_test (p_num_array IN num_tab_t) AS
BEGIN
dbms_output.put_line(p_num_array.COUNT);
END;
/
this is called from sql prompt/toad
DECLARE
v_tab testproc.num_tab_t := testproc.num_tab_t(1, 10);
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN testproc.my_dyn_proc_test(:1); END;' USING v_tab;
END;
this will not work.This shows error.I am not at my workstation so am not able to reproduce the issue now.

Answer 1

You can't use RECORD types in USING clause of EXECUTE IMMEDIATE statement. If you just want to pass a list of numbers, why don't you just use a variable of TABLE OF NUMBER type? Check below example:
CREATE TYPE num_tab_t IS TABLE OF NUMBER;
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE my_dyn_proc_test (p_num_array IN num_tab_t) AS
BEGIN
dbms_output.put_line(p_num_array.COUNT);
END;
/
DECLARE
v_tab num_tab_t := num_tab_t(1, 10);
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN my_dyn_proc_test(:1); END;' USING v_tab;
END;
Output:
2
Edit
Try this:
CREATE TYPE num_tab_t IS TABLE OF NUMBER;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE testproc AS
PROCEDURE my_dyn_proc_test (p_num_array IN num_tab_t);
END;
/
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY testproc AS
PROCEDURE my_dyn_proc_test (p_num_array IN num_tab_t) AS
BEGIN
dbms_output.put_line(p_num_array.COUNT);
END;
END;
/
DECLARE
v_tab num_tab_t := num_tab_t(1, 10);
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN testproc.my_dyn_proc_test(:1); END;' USING v_tab;
END;

Answer 2

Use an object type. object types are visible to all packages
