|I hope Oracle developers know what they are talking about!
|
|How does this work:
|
|create or replace procedure blah_blah
| ( p_in_one in out test.col_2%type ) as
| begin
| null;
| p_in_one := rpad('0',5000,'0');
|
| end;
|
|
| declare
| rr varchar2(5000);
| begin
| blah_blah(rr);
| dbms_output.put_line(length(rr));
|
| end;
|
|Regards,
|
|Waleed
