Editor's Column - Traditional DBMS

Editor's column There were days when Rooms-sized processors used for processing data. IT boomed up at the start of 21st Century and so many innumerable inventions made Computer world and few among them are still up in the markets for thier better implemented programming Alogrithms which couples with computer hardware and software ( OS ). Textpads or notepads were the repository of data and programmers had to be Experts to do data manipulation. In other words, Programmers had to use thier own logic to do insert , delete, update in data source. For instance, Consider the following: file1.txt: 1 I am line number 1 2 I am line number 2 3 I am line number 3 4 I am line number 4 5 I am line number 5 6 I am line number 6 7 I am line number 7 8 I am line number 8 9 I am line number 9 10 I am line number 10 To programmatically delete 8 th record , developer had to use the following logic with OLD file handling methods in 3rd generation language. 1. Open file1.txt, an...

Only native data types are supported in PLSQL programming

create or replace package check1 is procedure p1(a1 integer); procedure p1(a1 number); end check1; / create or replace package body check1 is procedure p1(a1 integer) as begin dbms_output.put_line('Using Integer'); end p1; procedure p1(a1 number) as begin dbms_output.put_line('Using Number'); end p1; end; / --The above code gets compiled successfully. --But when you try to execute it .. begin check1.p1(8779); end; --See what happens.............. This concludes ONLY different native datatypes can be used in PLSQL OO implementation. Happy learning!!!!!
