printf('local_time_greeting');
Having some trouble getting a stored procedure to run with SQL Developer. Below is an example patterned exactly like the first few lines, with variable names changed for security reasons.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE redacted ( an_in_variable IN VARCHAR ) AS
these VARCHAR;
variables VARCHAR;
don_apostrophe_t INT;
matter INT;
BEGIN
DECLARE cursor_giving_me_trouble CURSOR FOR
SELECT something FROM db.table WHERE condition_1 = condition_2;
...
In the editor the SELECT word is red-wavy-lined, and when I try to run the code the output returns
PLS-00103: Encountered symbol "FOR" when expecting one of the following := . ( @ % ; not null range default character
Any ideas?
You need to use IS
rather than FOR
, but you have the terms of the definition in the wrong order as well:
DECLARE
CURSOR cursor_giving_me_trouble IS
SELECT something FROM db.table WHERE condition_1 = condition_2;
db<>fiddle which still errors because of the illegal object names in your obfuscated code, but not from the syntax; and a more complete example .
It's also possible you're trying to use the construct:
FOR cursor_giving_me_trouble IN (
SELECT something FROM db.table WHERE condition_1 = condition_2
) LOOP
...
rather than a sub-block (a new declare, followed by begin/end) with references only to cursor within that. db<>fiddle .
To get you started:
create or replace procedure redacted
( an_in_variable in varchar2 )
as
these varchar2(123);
variables varchar2(456);
don_apostrophe_t integer;
matter integer;
cursor cursor_giving_me_trouble is
select 'Welcome to PL/SQL' as whatever from dual where 1=1;
begin
for r in cursor_giving_me_trouble loop
dbms_output.put_line(r.whatever);
end loop;
end;
However, you often don't need a separate cursor definition as there is this compact syntax:
create or replace procedure redacted
( an_in_variable in varchar2 )
as
these varchar2(123);
variables varchar2(456);
don_apostrophe_t integer;
matter integer;
begin
for r in (
select 'Welcome to PL/SQL' as whatever from dual where 1=1
)
loop
dbms_output.put_line(r.whatever);
end loop;
end;
