    This document provides instructions for a lab exercise on creating and using PL/SQL procedures. It demonstrates how to use different parameter modes - IN, OUT, and IN OUT - when creating procedures. The lab asks students to write a procedure using each parameter mode: 1) a procedure called query_emp with IN and OUT parameters, and 2) a procedure using an IN OUT parameter to format a phone number.

    ITE 407 ADVANCED DATABASES - Lab 5 PROCEDURES

    Creating and Using PL/SQL Procedures

    Objective

    1. To demonstrate the creation of Procedures in PL/SQL


    2. To demonstrate the use of Parameter Modes in PL/SQL Procedures

    Background/Theory

    Please take special note that this lab exercise has been recast from the Challenge questions in Lab
    exercise 4.

    Parameters are used to transfer data values to and from the calling environment and the procedure (or
    subprogram). Parameters are declared in the subprogram header, after the name and before the
    declaration section for local variables.
    Parameters are subject to one of the three parameter-passing modes: IN, OUT, or IN OUT.

    An IN parameter passes a constant value from the calling environment into the procedure.

    An OUT parameter passes a value from the procedure to the calling environment.

    An IN OUT parameter passes a value from the calling environment to the procedure and a
    possibly different value from the procedure back to the calling environment using the
    same parameter.

    Parameters can be thought of as a special form of local variable, whose input values are initialized by
    the calling environment when the subprogram is called, and whose output values are returned to the
    calling environment when the subprogram returns control to the caller.

    Tools/Equipment

    The following resources will be required to successfully complete the tasks in this lab:

    - Workstations running the Oracle client connected to an Oracle Server machine, or

    - Workstations running the Oracle Express software.


    Lab Activity

    Using IN, OUT and IN OUT Parameters

    1. Write out the following PL/SQL Procedure and observe the IN and OUT
    parameters:

    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE query_emp


    (id IN employees.employee_id%TYPE,
    name OUT employees.last_name%TYPE,
    salary OUT employees.salary%TYPE) IS
    BEGIN
    SELECT last_name, salary INTO name, salary
    FROM employees
    WHERE employee_id = id;
    END query_emp;

    (a) Write an anonymous block that runs this procedure with variables to
    take the parameters from the procedure created. [4]

    (b) What is the significance of the supplied value in the anonymous


    block? [2]

    (c) What values will the emp_name and emp_sal parameters hold? [2]

    (d) Use bind variables to write the execution of query_emp. [2]

    2. Write a procedure using the IN OUT mode parameter, phone_no that


    formats a 10-digit telephone number with the format (999)999-9999 (e.g. a
    number 8006440555 would appear as (800)644-0555. [4]
