NAME

DBIx::PLSQLHandler - PL/SQL procedural language handler.

SYNOPSIS

use DBIx::PLSQLHandler;
my $plsql = new DBIx::PLSQLHandler(
    connection => $connection,
    plsql      => "
DECLARE
debit_amt    CONSTANT NUMBER(5,2) := 500.00;
BEGIN
SELECT a.bal INTO :acct_balance FROM accounts a
WHERE a.account_id = :acct AND a.debit > debit_amt;
:extra_info := 'debit_amt: ' || debit_amt;
END;"
);

my $result_set = $plsql->execute(acct => 000212);
# $result_set->{acct_balance}; $result_set->{extra_info}
... do some stuff

or

use DBIx::Connection;

...

 my $plsql = $connection->plsql_handler(
        plsql      => "
DECLARE
    debit_amt    CONSTANT NUMBER(5,2) := 500.00;
BEGIN
    SELECT a.bal INTO :acct_balance FROM accounts a
    WHERE a.account_id = :acct AND a.debit > debit_amt;
    :extra_info := 'debit_amt: ' || debit_amt;
END;"
);

DESCRIPTION

Base class for PLSQL blocks hyandler(SQL Procedural Language). It allows use independetly specyfig Procedural Language SQL dialect like PL/SQL (Oracle, mySQL), PL/pgSQL (PostgreSQL) It uses ":" placeholers to bind variables in or out or inout.

By default it bind variable is defined as varchar, however you can change it by specyfing your types in bind_variables parameter.

        my $plsql_handler = new DBIx::PLSQLHandler(
            name        => 'int_test',
            connection  => $connection,
            plsql       => "BEGIN
            :var1 := :var2 + :var3;
            :var4 := 'long text';
            END;",
	    bind_variables => {
		var1 => {type => 'SQL_INTEGER'},
                var4 => {type => 'SQL_VARCHAR', width => 30}
	    }
	);

In Oracle database it uses an anonymous PLSQL block, In mysql procedure wraps the plsql block. In postgresql function wraps the plsql block. Name for the procedure/function wrapper is created as 'anonymous_' + $self->name
