QUESTION POSED ON: 20 May 2003
Can you call a PL/SQL procedure or function from a Java program, returning error code, messages and answer?

EXPERT RESPONSE

Yes, you can make any database call from a Java program. You'll need to use JDBC to connect your Java program to the database. The Oracle 9i JDBC Developer's Guide and Reference gives you tons of information on using Java and JDBC. In particular, the section titled Stored Procedure Calls in JDBC Programs answers your question exactly.
