I have a defined a new stored procedure but get a error while calling it,
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE SCOTT.getempsal(
p_emp_id IN NUMBER,
p_emp_month IN CHAR,
p_emp_sal OUT INTEGER)
AS
BEGIN
SELECT EMP_SAL
INTO p_emp_sal
FROM EMPLOYEE_SAL
WHERE EMP_ID = p_emp_id
AND EMP_MONTH = p_emp_month;
END getempsal;
And trying to call it:
getempsal(1,'JAN',OUT) --Invalid sql statement.
Your procedure contains an out parameter, so you need to call it in block like:
declare
a number;
begin
getempsal(1,'JAN',a);
dbms_output.put_line(a);
end;
A simple procedure (let's say with a number parameter) can be called with
exec proc(1);
or
begin
proc(1);
end;
Just write EXECUTE procedure_name('provide_the_valueof_IN parameter','value of in parameter', :k) ;
Run this statement a popup will come set the parameters as in out and the datatype too. U will see the output in another popup window.

I want to create a simple Oracle Stored procedure on SQL Developer that will return some records on a simple select query. I do not want to pass in any parameter, but I just want the Records to be returned back from the procedure into a result set -> a suitable variable.
I have been trying to use the following syntax :
create or replace PROCEDURE Getmarketdetails2(data OUT varchar2)
IS
BEGIN
SELECT *
into data
from dual;
END Getmarketdetails2;
But it gives me an error while I try to execute with the following exec statement -->
Declare a Varchar2;
exec Getmarketdetails2(a);
Error: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "end-of-file" when expecting "something else".
Cause: Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
Appreciate if anyone can help me out of this long pending situation! I have tried enough to find a basic guide to create a simple Oracle stored procedure and execute it in SQL Developer, but none of them answer to the point!!
You want:
DECLARE
a VARCHAR2(4000); -- Give it a size
BEGIN -- Begin the anonymous PL/SQL block
Getmarketdetails2(a); -- Call the procedure
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE( a ); -- Output the value
END; -- End the anonymous PL/SQL block
/ -- End the PL/SQL statement
or:
VARIABLE a VARCHAR2(4000); -- Create a bind variable
EXEC Getmarketdetails2(:a); -- Execute the procedure using the bind variable
PRINT a -- Print the bind variable
Assuming an up-to-date Oracle version, you can use dbms_sql.return_result()
create or replace PROCEDURE Getmarketdetails2
IS
c1 SYS_REFCURSOR;
BEGIN
OPEN c1 FOR
SELECT *
from dual;
DBMS_SQL.RETURN_RESULT(c1);
END Getmarketdetails2;
/
Then simply run
exec Getmarketdetails2
The only drawback is that SQL Developer only displays the result as text, not as a proper result grid.
This is how I return a cursor in Oracle
PROCEDURE GetAllData (P_CURSOR OUT SYS_REFCURSOR)
IS
BEGIN
OPEN P_CURSOR FOR
SELECT *
FROM TABLE ;
END GetAllData ;
Declare a Varchar2;
exec Getmarketdetails2(a);
Your procedure is ok;
Instead of above query, use below query to run sp:
Declare
a Varchar2(10);
Begin
Getmarketdetails2(a);
End;
The code below is saved in a file named proc1.sql
DECLARE
B VARCHAR2(25);
C NUMBER;
PROCEDURE Get_manager_detailS(NO IN NUMBER,NAME OUT VARCHAR2,SAL1 OUT NUMBER)
IS
BEGIN
SELECT ENAME, SAL
INTO NAME, SAL1
FROM EMP
WHERE EMPNO = NO;
END;
BEGIN
Get_manager_detailS(7900,B,C);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(B);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(C);
END;
/
This procedure is stored in another file proc3.sql
PROCEDURE Test_Procedure()
IS
BEGIN
b varchar2(25);
c number;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('CALLING');
Get_manager_details(7900,b,c);
END;
When I am running it in sqlplus, it is showing an error
SP2-0734 UNKNOWN COMMAND BEGINING PROCEDURE.. REST OF THE LINES IGNORED.
SP2-0042 UNKNOWN COMMAND" IS "..REST OF THE LINE IGNORED.
Creating a PROCEDURE/FUNCTION vs. ANONYMOUS BLOCK
Stored PROCEDURES/FUNCTIONS always starts with CREATE OR REPLACE ... and ends with END;
CREATE OR REPLACE serves as the implicit declare for stored functions and procedures, thus you dont have to write DECLARE anymore inside the block
An anonymous block starts with DECLARE and ends with END;
As for the code/block of codes saved in proc1.sql.
Your declaration is misplaced.You should place it after the end of
the procedure
Start the procedure with CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE
Try This Block:
-- DECLARE
-- B VARCHAR2(25);
-- C NUMBER;
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE Get_manager_detailS(NO IN NUMBER,
NAME OUT VARCHAR2,
SAL1 OUT NUMBER)
IS
BEGIN
SELECT ENAME, SAL
INTO NAME, SAL1
FROM EMP
WHERE EMPNO = NO;
END; -- end of procedure
/
DECLARE -- start of anonymous block
B VARCHAR2(25);
C NUMBER;
BEGIN
Get_manager_detailS(7900,B,C);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(B);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(C);
END;
As for the procedure that will call the get_manager_details procedure.Its will be just the same as the anonymous block, the only difference will be is that it is stored
Base from what have you done already
If you will not declare parameters in your procedure, parenthesis are not necessary so remove it.
If you dont have output parameters that will catch the result of your procedure, you can use dbms_output.put_line as you have used in
the anonymous block above
variable declarations should be done after the IS keyword and before BEGIN statements, because as I have noted above CREATE OR
REPLACE ... IS is the implicit declare for the stored functions and
procedures
TRY THIS:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE Test_Procedure
IS -- always start with CREATE OR REPLACE
b varchar2(25);
c number;
BEGIN
-- b varchar2(25); misplaced declarations
-- c number;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('CALLING');
Get_manager_details(7900,b,c);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(B); -- displays the results b
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(C); -- and c
END;
Sorry for the long post.
HOPE THIS HELPS.
CHEERS
Your first block is anonymous block in which you declare procedure - you can call procedure Get_manager_details within anonymous block only. You can't call Get_manager_details from Test_Procedure because there is no such procedure. You need to create your procedure Get_manager_details first
Create or replace procedure Get_manager_details ....
Then you can run
Create or replace procedure Test_Procedure ....
Or it will not compile.
If you are trying to call the procedure get_manager_details inside test_procedure then you first need to create the test procedure.
Add create or replace procedure test_procedure .
Then after creating the test_procedure you can execute it in an anonymous block which will call the get_manager_details procedure.
I have one requirement in which I have to design two procedure.First procedure will generate one output variable value and then second procedure will use to do its task. I am giving same kind of scenario in below code
create procedure existingProc(
begin
insert statementprogramming statement
);
create procedure MyProc(
begin
call existingProc();
-- Exsisting procedure return some value
-- and this value is used in MyProc
commit;
);
In the above code existingProc is already there in the system and I can not change it. IN the procedure transaction is begin but not committed. This procedure generate one value as Output param and MyProc will used this value.
I want that after executing the existingProc, MyProc procedure should get the value, but it is not happening and it is giving null.
what should i do here, Please help me. I can not share the code that why giving scenario.
Does this help clarify how to use the output parameters from one procedure in another procedure?
create procedure ExistingProc(output1 out number) is
begin
insert into someTable values ('some values')
RETURNING someCol INTO output1;
end;
create procedure MyProc(args ....) is
Result1 number; --output from existingProc
begin
ExistingProc(result1);
-- Use Result1 as needed
Update stuff ...
where id = Resutl1;
commit;
end;
I created a procedure with dynamic sql,but cannot run it successfully.
create or replace procedure getdata(string par1, results out cursor)
as
declare sqlBase varchar2(100);
begin
sqlBase := 'open '||results|| ' for select * from studetns';
end;
After running, the following error message pops up:
PLS-00306, wrong number or types of arguments in call to '||'
I just need to filter data by some parameters ,but some parameters may be null or empty,
so I need to filter dynamic. like if(par1 is not null) then ........
so here I need to use dynamic sql. in C# programe, use cursor to return result.
like here ,I use cursor type to open select statements.
but in sql editor, I get right sql statement.
Can Somebody help me with this?
Your syntax is a little bit wrong. Try with this:
create or replace procedure getdata(par1 varchar2, par2 varchar2, results out sys_refcursor)
as
begin
open results for
select *
from students
where name = nvl(par1, name)
and surname = nvl(par2, surname);
end;
Why do you need parameter par1? Better to use PL/SQL type varchar2, not string. They work the same, but varchar2 is a base data type, while string is a subtype of it.
Depending on what you want to achieve, I would try something like that:
create or replace procedure getdata(par1 varchar2, results out sys_refcursor)
as
sqlBase varchar2(100);
begin
sqlBase := 'begin open :X for select * from students;end;';
execute immediate sqlbase USING IN OUT results;
end;
You can't concatenate a cursor into a string as you tried it, that's where your error came from.
But if you could clearify your question we could help you better.
Here I have a stored procedure in Oracle:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE StP_COMPS
IS
CV_1 SYS_REFCURSOR;
BEGIN
OPEN CV_1 FOR SELECT * FROM COMPUTERS;
END;
When I execute the procedure like EXEC SP_COMPS I get no error, the SQL Developer just shows "ananymous block completed". Then I change the procedure to a
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE SP_COMPS
(cv_1 OUT SYS_REFCURSOR)
IS
BEGIN
OPEN CV_1 FOR SELECT * FROM COMPUTERS;
END;
and when I execute I get error stating that the number of type of the arguments are wrong. I'm very curious what I could send as an argument to the procedure if it's just an output parameter. I want to get the result set of the query run inside the procedure. What am I doing wrong here?
P.S. When I try to run the procedure by right clicking the procedure and selecting Run I get:
DECLARE
CV_2 sys_refcursor;
BEGIN
SP_COMPS(
CV_2 => CV_2
);
:CV_2 := CV_2; -- <--Can't understand this part
END;
You have a variable, you should execute the procedure like:
DECLARE
CV_1 SYS_REFCURSOR;
BEGIN
SP_COMPS(CV_1);
--use cv_1
END;
UPDATE(after OP update): That's a simple template for testing. As explained here: Easiest method to test an Oracle Stored Procedure, just run that code, and select ref_cursor as type of cv2 variable.
