Hi All
I have stored a user defined function as Varchar field in a table.
How do I execute this function.
Here is the table where the function is stored.
SQL> select * from func;
FUNCTION_NAME
-----------------------------------------
Calc_radius(5)
This procedure contains the following Code :
create function calc_radius(r in number) return number is
begin
return 3.14*r*r;
end;
Executing this funtion at SQL Prompt give the output as
SQL> SELECT CALC_RADIUS(5) FROM DUAL;
CALC_RADIUS(5)
--------------
78.5
I want to execute this function from a PL/SQL Block.
I tried to store this function into a variable and then execute it.
But it returns only the content of the field FUNCTION_NAME
and not the value.
Can anyone suggest a solution for this problem ?
Regards
Dpb
