I am trying to call procedure from PRO C Procedure has many parameters and I do not need to put all of them when I call procedure. Is there way to make the same way as in PL/SQL
like this
my_procedure( q=>a1 , b=>'abc )
I need to call a PL/SQL stored procedure from a C program. Something like this sample program provided by Oracle -
main()
{
int i;
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
/* Define type for null-terminated strings. */
EXEC SQL TYPE asciz IS STRING(20);
asciz username[20];
asciz password[20];
[code].......
The question is - how is the Stored procedure get_employees declared ? Or more specifically, how is the salary parameter declared in get_employees ?
I have an array of C structs say
struct S
{
int a, long b, double c;
};
S s[100];
Further suppose I have an Oracle table T like this:
create table T
(
a number(10),
b number(10),
c float
);
I want to bulk insert all 100 instances of S from a client application into T. I've seen code that does this for *one* field or column. The code defines a stored procedure which accepts a single argument which is a TABLE and then does a FORALL ... insert. The client application passes in the array of data.
What I need is N columns. In my example above struct S has N=3 fields which conform to the N=3 columns in T. In reality my N will be 50+. I am trying to avoid creating stored procedures which will take the 50 or so arguments it will eventually need.
So does my stored procedure need to accept N TABLE arguments? Or can I cajole OCI/OTL/ODBC and PL/SQL so that the stored procedure can take an array of rows which the type of row conforms to T by defining a record or something? That is, do I need:
Option 1: // declares one type and one argument each for N cols
create or replace procedure insert_S(
a_array IN A_TABLE, -- type A_TABLE is TABLE of number;
b_array IN B_TABLE, -- type B_TABLE is TABLE of number;
c_array IN C_TABLE) -- type C_TABLE is ...
begin ... end
Option 2: // this somehow accepts an array compatible with T
// if I could get a OCI/OCCI/OTL/ODBC application
// to send this data, this procedure would have
// only one argument
create or replace procedure insert_S(
row_array IN ?????????? type -- some sort of array of rows
)
begin ... end
Or should I pass the whole memory chunk of data in as an image or varchar array -- basically an opaque block of data -- and then internally decypher/decode the memory block inside the stored procedure as discussed on [URL].
best way to pass an array of N C-structs of M fields to a stored procedure for insertion into a table with M compatible columns? One TABLE per column? with an array of a custom type compatible with a row in T? As glob of data? Another option is to populate some host variables ... but, again, I'd need N host variables.
I created a table and some type definitions in oracle 10.2.0.3 DB as follows. There is also a procedure that I defined and is shown below.
SQL> create table test_proc
(
test_name varchar2(10),
test_ver number (3,3),
active_flag number(2)
);
Table created.
SQL> select * from test_proc;
TEST_NAME TEST_VER ACTIVE_FLAG
---------- ---------- -----------

PSA 11.89 0
EHIV 99.5 3
aHAVM 1.45 9

Now from Pro*C function I want to pass a similar array of structure to this procedure and return it via the out parameter of the procedure back to Pro*C. How do I do it?
I am using the attached program but its giving me compiler error as follows..

I'm using an existing stored procedure in my C code. The stored procedure in question has been compiled and is proven to work without any errors. However, when I use the same in my C code, its failing with the above error.
The Store procedure definition looks like :
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION SP(
srq_id integer ,
unid IN SPkg.arr_parmid,
parm_typ IN SPkg.arr_parm_typ,
[code].....
Type definitions
TYPE arr_parm_typ IS TABLE OF char INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
TYPE arr_parmid IS TABLE OF tbl_parm.UNID%TYPE INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
TYPE arr_parm_lbl IS TABLE OF tbl_parm.PARM_LBL%TYPE INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
TYPE arr_parm_vlu IS TABLE OF tbl_parm.PARM_VLU%TYPE INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
TYPE arr_vlu_hint IS TABLE OF tbl_parm.VLU_HINT%TYPE INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
My C code looks like :
typedef struct param
{
char lbl[30][81];
char vlu[30][256];
char typ[30];
ub8 seq_no[30];
[code].....
The way I invoke the stored procedure:
char command[250] = "begin
:retval := SSP_srq_parm_all(:srq_id,:unid,:parm_typ,:parm_lbl,:parm_vlu,:commit_flag,:vlu_hint,:create_flag);
end;";
OCIStmtPrepare2((OCISvcCtx *)svchp, (OCIStmt **)&(stmthp),
(OCIError *)errhp, (OraText *)command,
[code].....
OCIStmtExecute() fails with the above error.
Is it possible to connect with Oracle using C?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to give back data from a stored procedure written in C. I registered the functions as follows:create or replace procedure version(versioninfo OUT clob) as external name "version" library myLib language c with context parameters (context, versioninfo, versioninfo INDICATOR SB4); It compiles fine. The function being called look like this:
extern "C" DLLEXPORT
void version(OCIExtProcContext* context, OCILobLocator **out, sb4 *ind_out){
OCIEnv* envh;
OCISvcCtx* svch;
OCIError* errh;
OCIExtProcGetEnv (context, &envh, &svch, &errh);
std::string versioninfo = "104";
oraub8 maxChar = 10;
[code]...
If I execute the procedure with SQLDeveloper by pressing "play" it is getting executed but there is no result. If I try to execute it from an anonymous block it results in ORA-22275 instead of doing anything.
declare
res clob;
begin
-- the following doesn't work much
--dbms_lob.createtemporary(res,true);
version(res);
dbms_output.put_line(res);
end;
Actually I have to questions:
1.) Why does Oracle give me the error? In my opinion all requirements mentioned by the error description are met.
2.) Why is there no output when executing the function via SQL Developer? Is the usage of OCILobWrite wrong?

I declare a cursor for a table with 8000 records, when I fetch the cursor this message appear ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channels when the fetch reach the 6500 element, What is the problem here?. All data are ok, not null fields.

I am using dynamic Pl/SQL with ProC and having problems with cursor. I've to execute stored procedure dynamically and get the result of select list into the cursor. The EXECUTE command is working fine but the FETCH gets failed with error "ORA-01002: fetch out of sequence". I've read that cursor variable can not be used with dynamic SQL.
Stored Procedure:

ROCEDURE open_mod_cur (
curs IN OUT cur_type,

int iResult = 0;

The otc_multiplier field is NULL. As is the to_date sometimes. However, when I output the records later, the entries where the to_date is NULL come out fine (no value). But the otc_multiplier is getting output as 0.0 using...

sprintf(newRecord, "%.1f",daServiceRecs->itemMultiplier);

I have Multi-threaded application using pro*c to connect to oracle.
I am using the following piece of code to create a connection to oracle database and preserver the context of created connection.
struct sqlca * tempSqlca = new sqlca;
struct sqlca & sqlca = * tempSqlca;
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
SQL_CONTEXT localContext;
[code].....
I am using the following piece of code to close the connection to the oracle database, I am using the context created in the previous step and passing it to the below code(connection.context)to release the connection.
if (connection.context == 0 || connection.ca == 0)
return true;
// Multithreading: get the communication area of the context
struct sqlca & sqlca = *(connection.ca);
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
[code].....
When the above code is executed there is no exception thrown but the connection is not getting close. I am using the V$SESSION system views to monitor the connection created.
I there anything I am missing in my code for the connection closing to fail.
I am receiving the following error while inserting records.
