Re: Getting Out Parameter in the application using libpq

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
   I still don't get. How can I get the varchar OUT parameter in the application? For Example

CREATE OR REPLACE
Function getOutVarchar(outvarchar OUT varchar2) RETURN NUMBER
IS
BEGIN
   outvarchar:='This is Out String';
   RETURN 1;
END getOutVarchar;

iris=> SELECT getOutVarchar('outVar');
 getoutvarchar
---------------
             1
(1 row)

My question is how can I Select "outVar" so that it is available in my application as a resultset.

Thanks
Ehsan

I can get the result set of an OUT parameter having REFCURSOR data type through an explicit FETCH ALL from "YYYY" but for OUT parameter of type integer/varchar I dont have a clue. Can anyone tell me how it is done or suggest any work around for this?

name your cursor:  also, remember that your cursor is only good for
duration of transaction.

outCursor := 'outcur';

[...]

FETCH all FROM outcur;
