I am trying to run a stored procedure that has multiple in and out paramaters. The procedure can only be viewed in my Connections panel by navigating Other Users | | Packages | |
If I right click , the menu items are "Order Members By..." and "Create Unit Test" (greyed out). The ability to "Run" the procedure does not seem possible when it's accessed by user.
I have been trying to find an example of how to create an anonymous block so that I can run the procedure as a SQL file, but haven't found anything that works.
Does anyone know how I can execute this procedure from SQL Developer? I am using Version 2.1.1.64.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT 1:
The procedure I want to call has this signature:
user.package.procedure(
p_1 IN NUMBER,
p_2 IN NUMBER,
p_3 OUT VARCHAR2,
p_4 OUT VARCHAR2,
p_5 OUT VARCHAR2,
p_6 OUT NUMBER)
If I write my anonymous block like this:
DECLARE
out1 VARCHAR2(100);
out2 VARCHAR2(100);
out3 VARCHAR2(100);
out4 NUMBER(100);
BEGIN
EXECUTE user.package.procedure (33,89, :out1, :out2, :out3, :out4);
END;
I get the error:
Bind Varialbe "out1" is NOT DECLCARED
anonymous block completed
I've tried initializing the out* variables:
out1 VARCHAR2(100) := '';
but get the same error:
EDIT 2:
Based on Alex's answer, I tried removing the colons from in front of the params and get this:
Error starting at line 1 in command:
DECLARE
out1 VARCHAR2(100);
out2 VARCHAR2(100);
out3 VARCHAR2(100);
out4 NUMBER(100);
BEGIN
EXECUTE user.package.procedure (33,89, out1, out2, out3, out4);
END;
Error report:
ORA-06550: line 13, column 17:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "USER" when expecting one of the following:

*Cause: Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
*Action:
With simple parameter types (i.e. not refcursors etc.) you can do something like this:
SET serveroutput on;
DECLARE
InParam1 number;
InParam2 number;
OutParam1 varchar2(100);
OutParam2 varchar2(100);
OutParam3 varchar2(100);
OutParam4 number;
BEGIN
/* Assign values to IN parameters */
InParam1 := 33;
InParam2 := 89;
/* Call procedure within package, identifying schema if necessary */
schema.package.procedure(InParam1, InParam2,
OutParam1, OutParam2, OutParam3, OutParam4);
/* Display OUT parameters */
dbms_output.put_line('OutParam1: ' || OutParam1);
dbms_output.put_line('OutParam2: ' || OutParam2);
dbms_output.put_line('OutParam3: ' || OutParam3);
dbms_output.put_line('OutParam4: ' || OutParam4);
END;

bind variables:
var InParam1 number;
var InParam2 number;
var OutParam1 varchar2(100);
var OutParam2 varchar2(100);
var OutParam3 varchar2(100);
var OutParam4 number;
BEGIN

END;

print :OutParam1;

print :OutParam3;
print :OutParam4;
