Oracle/ODBC/Procedure/Cursor -- how ?

Hi all,

[Quoted] I want to execute a stored procedure in Oracle7.

Details follow ..

I have a package like this :

CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE MyPackage AS
  TYPE MyRec IS RECORD
  (
    City VARCHAR2(20);
    Sales NUMBER(8,2);
  );

  TYPE MyCurTyp IS REF CURSOR RETURN MyRec; END; I have a stand-alone procedure like this :

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE MyProcedure
( state IN VARCHAR2, MyCur IN OUT MyPackage.MyCurTyp ) AS BEGIN
  OPEN MyCur FOR
    SELECT City_Name, SUM(SALES) FROM City, Sales       WHERE City.State_id=state
END;

[Quoted] How do I execute this procedure using ODBC/JDBC ??

JDBC DatabaseMetaData/ ODBC SQLProcedureColumns() on this stored procedure gives the following result :

Column #1

Schema         : MYSCHEMA
Procedure Name : MYPROCEDURE
Column Name    : STATE
Column Type    : SQL_PARAM_INPUT
Data Type      : 12
Data Type Name : VARCHAR2
Precision      : 2000
Nullable       : 1


----------------------------------------------

Column #2

Schema         : MYSCHEMA
Procedure Name : MYPROCEDURE
Column Name    : MYCUR
Column Type    : SQL_PARAM_INPUT_OUTPUT
Data Type      : -3
Data Type Name : RAW
Precision      : 255
Nullable       : 1


----------------------------------------------

Column #3

Schema         : MYSCHEMA
Procedure Name : MYPROCEDURE
Column Name    : RETURN_VALUE
Column Type    : SQL_RETURN_VALUE
Data Type      : -3
Data Type Name : RAW
Precision      : 255
Nullable       : 1


----------------------------------------------

Column #4

Schema         : MYSCHEMA
Procedure Name : MYPROCEDURE
Column Name    : CITY
Column Type    : SQL_PARAM_INPUT_OUTPUT
Data Type      : 12
Data Type Name : VARCHAR2
Precision      : 20
Nullable       : 1


----------------------------------------------

Column #5

Schema         : MYSCHEMA
Procedure Name : MYPROCEDURE
Column Name    : SALES
Column Type    : SQL_PARAM_INPUT_OUTPUT
Data Type      : 2
Data Type Name : NUMBER
Precision      : 8
Scale          : 2
Nullable       : 1


----------------------------------------------

Good that it returns the MyRec definition also.

[Quoted] • But how do I get the value from this record ? • What type of variable should I bind for parameter#2 in MYPROCEDURE ?

• If somebody knows how to do this in ODBC, I can figure out with JDBC or vice-versa.

Please help.

Thanx in advance.
