    The document contains questions about Oracle packages. Key points include: 1) Triggers cannot be part of a package. 2) To view the parameters of procedures in a package, use DESCRIBE package_name. 3) The keyword PACKAGE is missing from the CREATE statement in one question. 4) Packages allow related objects to be grouped and recompiled without affecting calling code.

    Packages allow grouping of related objects like procedures, functions and variables. They also provide data hiding and encapsulation.

    A package can contain procedures, functions, variables, constants, exceptions, cursors and other nested packages.

    The specification declares the interface and the body contains the implementation. The specification is visible to the calling programs while the body is not.

    1.

     Which one of the following can NOT be part of a Package ?


    Mark for Review

    (1) Points
    Global variables
    Explicit cursors
    Triggers (*)
    Procedures
    Functions
    Correct

    2. Package EMP_PACK contains two procedures, DEL_EMP and SHOW_EMP.


    You want to write an anonymous block which invokes these procedures but
    you have forgotten which parameters they use. Which of the following will
    give you this information?
    Mark for Review

    (1) Points
    DESCRIBE del_emp
    DESCRIBE show_emp
    DESCRIBE emp_pack(del_emp, show_emp)
    None of these.
    DESCRIBE emp_pack.del_emp
    DESCRIBE emp_pack.show_emp
    DESCRIBE emp_pack (*)
    Correct

    3. What is wrong with the following syntax for creating a package


    specification?
    CREATE OR REPLACE mypack IS
        g_constant1 NUMBER(6) := 100;
        PROCEDURE proc1 (p_param1 IN VARCHAR2);
        PROCEDURE proc2;
    END mypack;

    Mark for Review

    (1) Points
    The keyword PACKAGE is missing. (*)
    Nothing is wrong, this code contains no errors.
    The first line should be:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE SPECIFICATION mypack IS
    You cannot declare constants in the specification.
    A package must contain at least one function.
    Correct

    4. The following package specification has been created:


    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE mypack IS
        FUNCTION myfunc(p_funcparam DATE) RETURN BOOLEAN;
        PROCEDURE myproc(p_procparam IN NUMBER);
    END mypack;

    Which of the following will correctly invoke the package subprograms?


    (Choose two.)

    Mark for Review

    (1) Points
    mypack.myproc(35); (*)
    IF NOT mypack.myfunc(SYSDATE) THEN
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Message');
    END IF; (*)
    mypack.myfunc('22-Jan-2007');
    v_num := mypack.myproc(22);
    myproc(40);
    Correct

    5. Which of the following are good reasons for creating and using Packages?

    A. Related procedures, functions, and variables can be grouped together


    as a single unit
    B. We can recompile the package body without having to recompile the
    specification
    C. We can create packages without needing any system privileges
    D. The detailed package body code is invisible to the calling environment.
