Java stored procedures and collections(ORCL)

[Ricardo Riveros]

Hi all, i'm new to this forum and had a question.
I'm writing Java stored procedures for Oracle 10g and had a question.
Is there anyway a java stored procedure/function can return a collection that contains value objects that I created ?

Basically in the java stored procedure I want to execute the same query(with different parameters) inside a loop and create a collection of Value objects created from each ResultSet. How would I go about passing this back to the calling client ?

I think you can pass collection as an object to calling client from Stored procedure. Its possible with Oracle data type CURSOR. example:

.
.
callStmt.registerOutParameter(index number, OracleTypes.CURSOR);
.
.
ResultSet rs = callstmt.getObject(index number);
while(rs.hasnext()){
// construct VO here
}
.
.
.
Hope it helps,
