PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'OUTPUT_ARRAY'

Question

I\'m stuck with this error and really don\'t know how to fix it. Maybe i\'m passing array in improper way?

This is main sql file.

DECLARE
  v_array_lengt         


        

Answer 1

The type definition in main sql file is not the type that is expected by the package subroutine. IOPACKAGE.OUTPUT_ARRAY-subroutine expects type IOPACKAGE.NUMBER_ARRAY_TYPE. You don't have to re-define the type. The following should work:

declare
  v_array IOPACKAGE.NUMBER_ARRAY_TYPE;
begin
  IOPACKAGE.OUTPUT_ARRAY(v_array);
end;

See the difference between IOPACKAGE.NUMBER_ARRAY_TYPE and NUMBER_ARRAY_TYPE. They are similar but not the same.
