Subject: [GENERAL] stored procedure variable names
In all other DBMS, the variable names have a distinctive character to differentiate between variables and column names:
Example:
SQL Server uses @
MySql uses ?
Oracle uses :
Firebirdsql uses :
It makes it easier to write and manage queries especially in stored procedures.
Just compare the below:
create stored procedure get_user_for_editing(user_id int, out username varchar)
begin
select username into @username from users where user_id = @user_id;
end;
to this mess:
create stored procedure get_user_for_editing(user_id int, out username varchar)
begin
select u.username into get_user_for_editing.username from users u where get_user_for_editing.user_id = get_user_for_editing.user_id;
end;
Prefixing the variables (ex: p_user_id) makes the application code harder to write as we have a lot of dynamic code that is expecting "user_id" instead of "p_user_id".
Is there any plan to add a character to differentiate between variables?
That: “Oracle uses :” is simply not true.
There is no such requirement (mandatory prefix) in Oracale’s PlSQL.
In Oracle, only when you use dynamic SQL (EXECUTE ‘…’) with “USING” (to specify variable values) – then variable inside EXECUTE ‘…’ should have ‘:’ prefix.
The only difference in Postgres when using dynamic SQL variables inside EXECUTE ‘…’ are “positional” prefixed with ‘$’, eg.: $1, $2,…
