RE: FW: pl/sql array processing?

Sorry I did not make it clear that the number I used here (1, 9, 15,99) are just examples, the actual element index is a varible and they are not continuous. Yes, refTbl can be defined into a package. I guess what I am asking is if there is a way in pl/sql to do something like

• FORALL array element indexes (they are non-continuous) call a package function (parameter: element index)
• end for

without looping the array.

• orginal code: declare type numTbl is table of number index by binary_integer; refTbl numTbl; i number; str varchar2(30); begin refTbl (1) := 1; refTbl (9) := 1; refTbl(15) := 1; refTbl(99) := 1;

  i := refTbl.first;
  while i is not null loop
    dbms_output.put_line ('i=' || i);
    str:= my_package.function(i);
    i := refTbl.next(i);
  end loop;
end;
/

Yes, they could, I didn't see it in this example.
