odp.net可以将参数传递给布尔值pl / sql参数吗？

Question

是否可以正确地将OracleParameter传递给pl / sql存储过程中的布尔参数？

Answer 1

I used the following workaround to bypass this limitation:

1. Wrap the function call using an anonymous block.
2. Return an output variable containing 1 or 0.
3. Read the output variable and cast it to boolean.

Here is some sample code:

using (var connection = new OracleConnection("<connection string>"))
{
    var command = new OracleCommand();
    command.Connection = connection;
    command.CommandText = 
        "declare v_bool boolean;" + 
        "begin " +
        "v_bool := auth_com.is_valid_username (:username); "+
        "if (v_bool = TRUE) then select 1 into :v_result from dual; end if; " +
        "if (v_bool = FALSE) then select 0 into :v_result from dual; end if; " +
        "end;";

    command.Parameters.Add(new OracleParameter { ParameterName = "username", OracleDbType = OracleDbType.NVarchar2, Size=512, Direction = ParameterDirection.Input });
    command.Parameters.Add(new OracleParameter { ParameterName = "v_result", OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Decimal, Direction = ParameterDirection.Output });     

    try
    {
        connection.Open();
        command.ExecuteNonQuery();
    }
    finally
    {
        connection.Close();
    }

    bool success = Convert.ToBoolean(((OracleDecimal)command.Parameters["v_result"].Value).ToInt32());
}

You can not use boolean parameters in SQL. So calling an stored procedure that takes or returns a boolean value won't work in SQL. There is no problem using such a procedure from within a pl/sql block.
