Hi all

I'm working on converting a stored procedure from SQL server to Oracle. This stored procedure provides a direct resultset. I mean that if you call the stored procedure in eg Management Studio you directly obtain the resultset.

By converting to Oracle I walk against the problem that I in Oracle will not display the resultset

I searched on the Internet and have seen that the stored procedure should yield a REF CURSOR, but I still walk with the problem to write a little piece of code to obtain the resultset en process that.

Pseudo Code:

Call stored procedure and obtain cursor Do something with that cursor so that my resultset appears

Someone an idea?

Check out this page, it has examples on how to process a REF CURSOR for several different programming languages:

In SQL Plus:

SQL> var r refcursor
SQL> set autoprint on
SQL> exec :r := function_returning_refcursor();

Replace the last line with a call to your procedure / function and the contents of the refcursor will be displayed

In SQL Plus:

SQL> create procedure myproc (prc out sys_refcursor)
  2  is
  3  begin
  4     open prc for select * from emp;
  5  end;
  6  /

Procedure created.

SQL> var rc refcursor
SQL> execute myproc(:rc)

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

SQL> print rc

A: 

Oracle is not sql server. Try the following in SQL Developer

variable rc refcursor; exec testproc(:rc2); print rc2
