I have a stored procedure in oracle and want to test it from SQLPlus.

If I use

execute  my_stored_proc (-1,2,0.01) 

I get this erro

Answer 1

You forgot to put z as an bind variable.

The following EXECUTE command runs a PL/SQL statement that references a stored procedure:

SQL> EXECUTE -
> :Z := EMP_SALE.HIRE('JACK','MANAGER','JONES',2990,'SALES')

Note that the value returned by the stored procedure is being return into :Z

Answer 2

You have two options, a PL/SQL block or SQL*Plus bind variables:

var z number

execute  my_stored_proc (-1,2,0.01,:z)

print z
