cant you do a SELECT from cc_util.func ?
you can almost use the "func" keyword for this but it currently does
not supported dotted names like that, also does it need a "named"
argument like that ? so for that function as is, the most succinct is:
result = engine.text("select cc_util.func(i_name=>:name) from
dual").scalar(name=name)
if you really wanted OUT params that would be a new feature, either
an OutputBindParameter or a flag on BindParameter for that, then
supporting engines would have to check for those and call the
appropriate method off the DBAPI. this wouldnt be a huge change.
also, a cursor is most easily accessible via:
cursor = engine.connection().cursor()
and if you want to use it in an execute:
engine.execute(sql, params, cursor=cursor)
or an execute of a compiled:
engine.execute_compiled (mytable.select().compile(), params,
cursor=cursor)
