Argument definitions
Use dbProcedureOpen to open a connection to a stored procedure in the database.
You must include the following line at the beginning of your OmniMark program:
include "omdb.xin"
procedure must:
With some ODBC drivers, you must supply all three procedure parameter description arguments (else external exception OMDB409) if your procedure uses parameters. The procedure parameter description shelves (parameters, datatypes and datasizes) must
The parameter types must be valid (else external exception OMDB403). The following macro-defined parameter types are allowed:
Values supplied for datasizes cannot be negative numbers (else external exception OMDB412).
The key names of output parameters are used to key the "out" dbField parameter in dbProcedureExecute.
The following SQL datatypes are supported by this function:
In this example, a stored procedure that processes a customer purchase transaction is executed in the OmniMark program. The stored procedure, "PurchaseItem", takes four parameters:
The first two parameters are only read by the procedure. The ItemCount parameter is read in the procedure and the total number of items sold to the customer is written into the variable at the end of the procedure. If there are fewer than the requested number of items in inventory, the written value will be less than the initial value. The inventory count is only written to by the procedure and it contains the total number of items remaining in inventory after the sale. The procedure also returns a value. (This type of stored procedure is called a stored function on some databases.) The value returned is the total cost to the customer for the purchase.
