How to call a function with Rowtype parameter from a select statement in Oracle

问题

I have an oracle function which has an in parameter which is of rowtype of a table, from a select statement i need to pass the current row to this function so that it does some processing and returns a value. Is there a pseudo variable that can be used within the context of a select statement something equivalent to a old and new in trigger.

I would like to do something like

select *,function1(rowtype) from table1

I want to avoid passing multiple parameters, so the question should be seen in that context.

回答1:

You can't do this with %ROWTYPE. %ROWTYPE is actually a PL/SQL record type, which is not a legal type in SQL, so you can't use it in a SELECT. You should create an object type which has the same columns as the table, change to function to expect that object type instead of %ROWTYPE, and then you can write something like this:

SELECT function(table1_typ(column1, column2, column3))
  FROM table1 t1

Drawbacks: You still have to type all the columns in the SELECT, and if you change the table, you will need to change the object type and the SELECT too.

回答2:

Why not just pass the id of the row in and make the function work on that?

EDIT: You might be able to construct an OBJECT / TYPE on the fly and pass that to a function. Then you'll only need to query for the data once. Let me know if you need an example.

回答3:

You can do this:

DECLARE
    foo table1%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
     function1(foo);
END;

EDIT: You can check out this blog post for a more detailed description of how to use this technique.
