Study Notes
Oracle PL/SQL Programming
- A declaration section is used to declare a cursor,
emp_cursor, which retrieves all records from theemptable. - The
v_emp_namevariable is declared to store the employee name, and its data type is set to match theenamecolumn in theemptable. - A
FORloop is used to iterate through the records in theemp_cursorcursor. - Within the loop, the
v_emp_namevariable is assigned the value of the current employee's name (emp_rec.ename). - After the loop, the
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINEfunction is used to display the name of the last employee processed. - An
EXCEPTIONblock is used to handle theINVALID_CURSORerror, which is raised if the cursor is not valid. - If the
INVALID_CURSORerror occurs, theDBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINEfunction is used to display an error message, 'CURSOR NO VALIDO'.
