Re: Parameters Question

2002-04-11 Thread Jared Still



create or replace procedure my_proc (
emp_id number,
plan_id number,
grp_id number
) is
begin
blah, blah, blah;
end;

===

v_emp_id number := 1;
v_plan_id number := 2;
v_grp_id number := 3;


Positional parameters:

my_proc( v_emp_id, v_plan_id, v_grp_id );

Named parameters:

my_proc(
plan_id => v_plan_id,
emp_id => v_emp_id,
grp_id => v_grp_id
);


Ordering is unimportant (usually ) for named parameters.

Combinations are possible.  See PL/SQL app dev manual for details.

RE: Parameters Question

2002-04-10 Thread Jamadagni, Rajendra

create or replace my_demo_proc (param_1 in varchar2,  param_2 in number) is
begin
null;
end;

Now param_1 and param_2 are named parameters but 

begin
  my_demo_proc('ABC', 20);
end;
/

The "ABC" and 20 are actual parameters. Named parameters are also known as
formal parameters.

Re: Parameters Question

2002-04-10 Thread JoJo Zawawi

Jared,

I'm trying to read the Oracle documentation on Forms.  (It's a 1,300-page
PDF file... I'm on page 20, which, after the table of contents, is really
about page 1 or 2.)  So PL/SQL, I guess.

Thanks,
JoJo

Context Jojo, context!

Are you talking about PL/SQL, Oracle RDBMS init files,
something else?

Sounds like PL/SQL to me, but that would be Named
parameter and Positional Parameter.

Sounds like PL/SQL to me, but that would be Named
