in reply to
executing a OSP with CGI
Greetings, chuleto1!
When executing an existing stored procedure via DBI, I have often used a structure like the following:
sub call_assign_value_func {
my $some_num = shift;
my $func_value = -1;
my $pkgh = $dbh->prepare("BEGIN :result :=
PKG_SIMULATOR.F_ASSIGN_VALUE(:some_num); END;");
$pkgh->bind_param(":some_num", $some_num);
$pkgh->bind_param_inout(":result", \$func_value, 15);
$pkgh->execute();
return $func_value;
}
I am basically creating an anonymous PL/SQL block to execute the desired stored procedure, (or function in this case.) Using the
$pkgh->bind_param and
$pkgh->bind_param_inout calls allows for much greater flexibility when working with some of the stored procedures I have.
Hope this helps!
