⟩ How To Retrieve Data from an Cursor to a RECORD?
If you have a cursor opened ready to use, you can also use the FETCH statement to retrieve data from the cursor into a RECORD variable as shown in the tutorial exercise below:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE ggl_CENTER AS
CURSOR t_list IS SELECT first_name, last_name
FROM employees;
TYPE name_rec IS RECORD (
f_name VARCHAR2(10),
l_name VARCHAR2(10)
);
n name_rec;
BEGIN
OPEN t_list;
FETCH t_list INTO n;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Name = ' || n.f_name || ' '
|| n.l_name);
FETCH t_list INTO n;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Name = ' || n.f_name || ' '
|| n.l_name);
CLOSE t_list;
END;
