I have a procedure named student_id
procedure student_id ( v_surname in varchar2,
v_name in varchar2,
v_date_birth in varchar2,
v_gender in varchar2,
v_state in varchar2) is l_student_id varchar2;
begin
l_student_id := par_surname(v_surname) ||'-'||
par_name(v_name) ||'-'||
par_date_birht(v_date_birth) ||'-'||
par_gender(v_gender) ||'-'||
par_state(v_state);
dbms_output.put_line('Student ID : ' || l_student_id);
end student_id;
What my expected output should be after I will write the values :
(Student ID : JOHN-SMITH-170692-M-CALIFORNIA)

ORA-06550: line 9, column 25:
PLS-00103: Found symbol ""
06550. 00000 - "line %s, column %s:\n%s"
*Cause: Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
*Action:
I roughly translated the error I got because it was in another language.
*Note: This isn't a standalone procedure, this code is related to my previous question.
Found at :How to write a PL/SQL procedure with x input parameters and input/ouput of x parameters combined*
What is my error here? What is the cause of the error?
Without seeing the rest of your package, I can spot one issue:
procedure student_id ( v_surname in varchar2,
v_name in varchar2,
v_date_birth in varchar2,
v_gender in varchar2,
v_state in varchar2) is
l_student_id varchar2; -- you need to declare the length of your variable
begin
...
You've declared the type of your variable, but you haven't said how long it needs to be. It should be something like:
l_student_id varchar2(400);
although you should change the 400 to the right value for the expected maximum length of the values that will be stored in that variable.

This is a subtype of "base_t". When I add the "set_name" or "set_genus" I get some errors.
Here is my code:
CREATE OR REPLACE
TYPE dwarf_t UNDER base_t
( name VARCHAR2(30)
, genus VARCHAR2(30)
, CONSTRUCTOR FUNCTION dwarf_t
( name VARCHAR2
, genus VARCHAR2) RETURN SELF AS RESULT
, OVERRIDING MEMBER FUNCTION get_name RETURN VARCHAR2
-- , OVERRIDING MEMBER FUNCTION set_name (name VARCHAR2)
, MEMBER FUNCTION get_genus RETURN VARCHAR2
, MEMBER FUNCTION set_genus (genus VARCHAR2)
, OVERRIDING MEMBER FUNCTION to_string RETURN VARCHAR2)
INSTANTIABLE NOT FINAL;
/
For reference, I have created get_name in the main type, but not set_name, or get/set_genus.
My errors are as follows:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06545: PL/SQL: compilation error - compilation aborted
ORA-06550: line 11, column 3:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "," when expecting one of the following:
return
ORA-06550: line 0, column 0:
PLS-00565: DWARF_T must be completed as a potential REF target (object type)
The (not-so-helpful) error message is because you have a function without a return type. Since this is a SET, I assume you want a procedure instead of a function.
Change this line:
MEMBER FUNCTION set_genus (genus VARCHAR2)
To this:
MEMBER PROCEDURE set_genus (genus VARCHAR2)
I am trying to use the CLOB datatype as the output parameter in my stored procedure because its resultset exceeds the storage capacity of a var datatype.
How do I execute the procedure? Below are the commands I had run to execute.
I tried assigning the resultset to the the CLOB variable using the INTO query as shown in the query.
var cl CLOB;
EXECUTE procedure_name(:cl);
print cl;
How do i declare the binding variable because if you look at the first command, I am first initializing cl as var I am not able to initialize it as CLOB as it is giving out an error.
This is a sample of my procedure. The actual query in the procedure is 700 lines long.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE procedure_name (cl OUT CLOB)

[TL;DR] VAR is a keyword for declaring a variable and is not a data type; your actual error is due to using invalid syntax when you tried to define your procedure and it has not compiled.
VAR is short for VARIABLE and defines a PL/SQL bind variable.
This declaration has the syntax:
VAR[IABLE] [variable [type] ]
where type represents one of the following:
NUMBER
CHAR
CHAR (n [CHAR | BYTE])
NCHAR
NCHAR (n)
VARCHAR2 (n [CHAR | BYTE])
NVARCHAR2 (n)
BLOB
BFILE
CLOB
NCLOB
REFCURSOR
BINARY_FLOAT
BINARY_DOUBLE
So with:
var cl CLOB;
you are declaring a variable using the VAR keyword and the variable is named cl and has the type CLOB.
Also, your CREATE PROCEDURE statement has a syntax error as you cannot have the single quotes around the procedure name. For example:
CREATE PROCEDURE procedure_name (clb OUT CLOB)
IS
BEGIN
clb := 'test';
END;
/
Then:
VAR cl CLOB;
EXECUTE procedure_name( :cl );
PRINT cl;
Outputs:
test

Is it possible to pass a XML?
Yes, you can pass an XMLType variable as a bind parameter:
declare

varout varchar2(4);
pxml xmltype := xmltype('<OBJECT><HsCodes><HsCode>Test</HsCode></HsCodes></OBJECT>');

EXECUTE IMMEDIATE varSQL USING PXML,OUT varOut;

The error you are getting is because you have declared PXML as a string; either a varchar2 or CLOB variable:

I'm experienced with T-SQL from SQL Server, but have recently begun working on a project utilizing an Oracle database (11g) and am having some issues writing what seems to be basic code.
I need to test whether a set of values are numeric, and only insert them into a table if they are. PL/SQL doesn't seem to have an is_number function, so I wrote my own based on an AskTom question.
create or replace
function IS_NUMBER(str in varchar2) return boolean
IS
n number;
BEGIN
select to_number(str) into n from dual;
return (true);
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
return (false);
END;
Eventually, I'd like to use this function in a WHERE clause, but for now I'm just trying to get it to run at all:
declare
str varchar2(1);
n boolean;
begin
str := '0';
select ca_stage.is_number(str) into n from dual;
end;
In SQL Developer, trying to run this gives me the following error report:
Error report:
ORA-06550: line 6, column 39:
PLS-00382: expression is of wrong type
ORA-06550: line 6, column 19:
PLS-00382: expression is of wrong type
06550. 00000 - "line %s, column %s:\n%s"
*Cause: Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
*Action:
The error report is straight-forward, but doesn't make sense. The function accepts a varchar2, and that's what I'm using as an input variable. It returns a boolean and again, that's what I'm using.
As I said, this is basic code, so I assume that I'm missing something fundamental.
Return a SQL datatype, e.g. VARCHAR2. Also, I'd recommend against using WHEN OTHERS. Also, you don't need a query on dual:
create or replace
function IS_NUMBER(str in varchar2) return varchar2
IS
n number;
BEGIN
n := to_number(str);
return 'Y';
EXCEPTION WHEN VALUE_ERROR THEN
return 'N';
END;
