Assume, in Oracle 11.2g
the following type:
create type a_type is table of varchar2(30);
the following record type:
type a_record is record(id number(18)
,a_collection a_type
);
the following cursor type:
type a_cursor is ref cursor return a_record;
the following stored proc definition
function a_function return a_cursor;
When executing the function from PHP 5.4 to retrieve the cursor, I get:
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected CHAR got ADT
While I know that collections can be returned individually using:
oci_new_collection
oci_bind_by_name
...it appears that the problem is caused by the inclusion of a_collection in the cursor.
My question is: Does anyone know whether a way exists to return a_collection in a PHP 5.4 cursor from Oracle 11.2g?
