6.1 PLSQL PPT CH6 PDF

This document provides an overview of PL/SQL packages. It defines what a package is, why they are needed, and package components. A package is an Oracle object that holds other objects like procedures, functions, variables and constants. Packages promote code reuse, improve performance, and enable privilege management. The package specification declares public objects while the package body defines private objects and code. A demonstration shows how a package specification interfaces with a package body to implement stored procedures that interact with a database table.

HOMEWORK
What is
Package?
A package is an Oracle object, which holds other
• Generic
• Encapsulated
objects within it. Object commonly help within a
• Re-usable code package are procedure, functions, variables,
• Standalone sub
program
constants, cursors and exceptions.
Why do we need
Package?

1. Granting privileges efficiently


2. Enable overloading procedure and functions
3. Enables organization of commercial applications into efficient
modules. Improve performance by loading multiple objects into
memory at once. Therefore, subsequent calls to related
subprograms in package require no Input/Output
4. Promote code reuse through the use of libraries that contain
stored procedures and function, thereby reducing redundant
coding

IMPORTANT FACTS
PL/SQL code outside the package reference objects from within the
package using dot notation , declared in package specification called
PUBLIC

Objects that are declared inside the package body, their use is
restricted to within that package only called PRIVATE

Multiple procedures that are declared with the same name are called
Overloaded Procedures.

Multiple functions that are declared with the same name are called
Overloaded Functions
