Hello

Please can any one point me to an explanation on how I can return multiple rows in a table as an out parameter

This is what I have done so far

Check the docs for "pipe row"

Thanks for your response. I have changed the code to the one below, but I am now getting the error ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows


  FUNCTION  XX_BK_SP_CALENDAR_RECORD RETURN  CALENDARTYPE PIPELINED
    IS
    -- declare variable
    x_Calendar_row  XX_BK_CALENDAR%ROWTYPE;
    x_value         VARCHAR2(50);
    x_slot          VARCHAR2(10);
    -- declare cursor
    CURSOR  c_CalendarList_Cursor--(x_slot)
    IS
       SELECT *  
       FROM XX_BK_CALENDAR;
   --    WHERE CalendarCode = p_CalendarCode;  

     
    
    
    BEGIN
    
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Before opening the cursor');
    OPEN c_CalendarList_Cursor;
     
    LOOP
        FETCH c_CalendarList_Cursor INTO x_Calendar_row;
  --      DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(x_Calendar_row.calendarcode|| 'before exiting '||x_Calendar_row.calendarid);
     
        EXIT WHEN c_CalendarList_Cursor%notfound;  
  --       DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(x_Calendar_row.calendarcode|| 'after exit '||x_Calendar_row.calendarid);
    END LOOP;
    CLOSE c_CalendarList_Cursor;
   DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Closing the cursor');
    SELECT fnd_profile.value('XX_BK_DOG')
    INTO x_Value
    FROM dual;
    
    
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Slot Value is '||x_Value);
    
    IF (x_Value = 'FULL') THEN
       SELECT *   
       INTO x_calendar_row 
       FROM xx_bk_calendar ;    
    END IF;
    RETURN ;
    END XX_BK_SP_CALENDAR_RECORD;



I encounter this problem when I try to query the function. below is my query

declare
v_result cursor;

					    

begin

 --  v_result := XX_LGS_BK_CALENDAR_ADMIN_PKG.XX_BK_SP_CALENDAR_RECORD ;
 --   SELECT XX_LGS_BK_CALENDAR_ADMIN_PKG.XX_BK_SP_CALENDAR_RECORD('Pests') INTO v_result
 --   FROM DUAL;
 

SELECT * FROM TABLE(XX_LGS_BK_CALENDAR_ADMIN_PKG.XX_BK_SP_CALENDAR_RECORD) ;




end;

ora-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows
 *Cause: The number specified in exact fetch is less than the rows returned.
 *Action: Rewrite the query or change number of rows requested


In addition, why your last select is in a PL/SQL block?

And please don't erase what you posted, we can't follow the topic.

Thanks.

What I want to do is to return multiple records using the out parameter. Is there something I am doing wrong, in the datatype that I have used.

Maybe in your query.
Does "SELECT * INTO x_calendar_row FROM xx_bk_calendar ;" always return one row?

No, the number of rows that it returns, depends on the value passed in. Sometimes it returns more than one row.

I see you followed my advise and read about pipe row...
and decided you would have no need for it in your pipelined function

Use REF CURSOR instead of table type.

Thanks Michael. I am now using a ref cursor, but the performance is too slow. Is there a better way of me doing it. Here is the code




ref cursor type created within a package called XX_LGS_BK_CALENDAR_ADMIN_PKG
