Call PostgreSQL stored procedure using SimpleJdbcCall and REF_CURSOR

Question

I want to call a PostgreSQL stored procedure with REF_CURSOR using SimpleJDBCCall. My stored procedure looks like:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.procName()
RETURNS refcursor AS
$BODY$
  DECLARE
  ref1 refcursor := 'cursor';
BEGIN
   open ref1  for SELECT *   FROM public."tableName";
   RETURN ref1;
END;
$BODY$
LANGUAGE plpgsql VOLATILE
COST 100;
ALTER FUNCTION public.procName()
OWNER TO postgres;

I tried to call the procedure using the following JAVA code:

    JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate = new JdbcTemplate(getDataSource());
    jdbcTemplate.setResultsMapCaseInsensitive(true);


    SimpleJdbcCall jdbcCall = new SimpleJdbcCall(jdbcTemplate);
    jdbcCall.withFunctionName("procName").returningResultSet("cursor",
            BeanPropertyRowMapper.newInstance(CustomEntity.class));

     Map m = jdbcCall.execute();

Running the code I received an error message:

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: cursor "cursor" does not exist

I tested this code using an Oracele stored procedure, also with REF_CURSOR. I used instead of withFunctionName() the withProcedureName() method. The stored procedure is correctly called, and the result is returned.

Is there a way to call the PostreSQL stored procedue which is returning a REF_CURSOR using SimpleJDBCCall?

Answer 1

SimpleJdbcCall call = new SimpleJdbcCall(jdbcTemplate).withProcedureName("genidproc");
HashMap<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
params.put("keystr", "uno");
Map<String, Object> result = call.execute(params);
for (String s : result.keySet()) {
     pw.println("6.0  " + result.get(s));
}
