hi all.
im kinda new to oracle pl/sql
i'v been trying to do this simple thing for a while now, with no luck (and searched all over the net...)

to keep things simple:
lets say that this is my procedure:

create or replace procedure testSp(x out sys_refcursor )
is
begin
open x for
select 1 from dual;
end;


how would i be able to execute this from with in sqlTools to see the result ??? i have tried everything...


my goal is in the end to execute this from Magic 8 (to those who herd of it)
p.s this needs to work in oracle 8
thanks for any help

Do you have to use sqltools or can you use sqlplus?

Your question has no actual relation with PL/SQL, it is rather a question about your tool, whatever RDBMS you use the answer will be the same one: how to get the result from a cursor; I think your product documentation will tell it.

hi Michel,
i have looked all over including sqltool docs....
tho even when using SQLPLUS i still in the same problem.
to clarify, lets say that you have wrote :
create or replace procedure testSp(x out sys_refcursor )
is
begin
open x for
select 1 from dual;
end;

how would you execute it and view it from the same tool that you wrote it in?

Please read OraFAQ Forum Guide, especially "How to format your post?" section.
Make sure that lines of code do not exceed 80 characters when you format.
Indent the code, use code tags and align the columns in result.
Use the "Preview Message" button to verify.
Also always post your Oracle version, with 4 decimals.

SQL> create or replace procedure testSp(x out sys_refcursor )
  2  is
  3  begin
  4  open x for
  5  select 1 from dual;
  6  end;
  7  
  8  /

Procedure created.

SQL> var x refcursor
SQL> exec testSp (:x)

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

SQL> print x
         1
----------
         1

1 row selected.
