● CALL: Calls a procedure. For example:
CALL getOutput (1000, 'EUR', NULL, NULL);
Tools for Writing Procedures
Use the SQLScript editor, which includes debugging capabilities, to build SQLScript procedures.
You can also use the Navigator in the Modeler perspective to build procedures, but there are no debugging
capabilities. You should only use this method:
● If you need to develop a procedure using a local table type as an input or output parameter. A local table type
is created within the Navigator procedure tool and for only the current procedure. If you can use a global table
type, then use the SQLScript Editor.
● If you need to edit a procedure previously created in the Navigator that contains table type parameters.
