Fill cursor with data using IDs returned by another cursor












0















I'm trying to fill a cursor in a stored procedure with records from a table using ids return by a different stored procedure in a separate cursor.



My code looks something like this (I simplified it a lot for the sake of clarity):



PROCEDURE GetAll(DataCur OUT RefCur)
AS
IDsCursor RefCur;
ids refs;
BEGIN

GetAllRefs(IDsCursor);

loop
fetch IDsCursor
bulk collect into ids limit 999999999;

exit when IDsCursor%NOTFOUND;
end loop;
close IDsCursor;

open DataCur for
select
tbl.*
from
table(ids) ids
inner join myobjects tbl on
tbl.itemid = ids.itemid;

END;


where refs is a custom table type.



The weird thing is that this works when I have a small number of ids but when the number increases (70k+ in my case, so not a lot) I get the following error:



enter image description here



My questions are:




  1. Is this really a communication issue or I am doing something wrong? I never had this problem before.

  2. Is there another way of achieving what I need? I need to be able to reuse the GetAllRefs stored procedure in multiple places, but how can I do that without using an actual table?

  • The error usually means a back-end process died, so you can check the alert log on the database server for more information. It might be useful to include the type definistions, but what you're doing doesn't seem unreasonable. (Although your bulk collect limit inside the loop is a bit odd as - if you had more than 999999999 results and went round the loop a second time, you'd lose the first set of results; the ids would be replaced, not added to. And if you'll never reach that why have the loop at all? Probably not relevant to the error though.)
