Oracle Error PLS-00323: subprogram or cursor is declared in a package specification and must be defined in the package body

Question

Can someone help me put my pl/sql procedure in a package? I\'ve tried and I\'m struggling with it:

This is what I have, for my package specification:

CRE         


        

Answer 1

Your header and body procedure definitions don't match

In the header, you have:

PROCEDURE get_films(fname VARCHAR2);

Whereas in the body:

PROCEDURE get_films(fname IN film.title%type, 
   r_date OUT film.release_date%type, dur OUT film.duration%type)

You probably just need to update the header definition with the two additional OUT params?

To Summarize

• Ensure the header definition matches all parameters of the body implementation (number of parameters, names of parameters, order of parameters, and the parameter types)
• As per Alex's comment, do not mix and match the custom type (film.title%type) with the base type (VARCHAR2). Choose one or the other.
