Hi Isomorphic,
what is the best practice to have Oracle do some task and return a number as result?
Oracle Stored Procedure or Function?
Could you give an example? Here you seem to suggest function but with no example.
In the Quick Start Guide and the CustomQuerying-docs you suggest procedure.
I'd think that function is correct, but can't get it to work (from the logs I can see that the velocity expression is working).
.ds.xml:
I'm using v10.0p_2015-08-16/PowerEdition Deployment.
I tried "deleteABC($values.ABC_ID)", "CALL deleteABC($values.ABC_ID)" and "EXEC deleteABC($values.ABC_ID)",
leading to different error messages, including:
My function is:
Do you describe calling functions (returning different types) and stored procedures (with one or more OUT parameters) somewhere in detail?
This usecase should be very common, so most likely I just didn't find the docs for it, yet. On the other hand, there are not too many threads in the forums search.
Best regards
Blama
