I have some PL/SQL code that needs to run from a pro*c app.
I need to do something like this:
EXEC SQL EXECUTE
declare
foo number;
begin
for record in ( < some query > )
loop
// Do a bnuch of other queries that generate scalar values.
// I know I cannot do this:
printf("%d", foo);
end loop;
EXE-END;
I don't know how many iterations the PL/SQL loop will generate, but with each loop iteration, I want to take the calculated results and in C, print them to a file. Can I create a PL/SQL table and somehow populate that and access it OUTSIDE of the PL/SQL block? The other option, is to write the values to some temp table, and then query the table. This seems wasteful.
Is there some way to use a host array for this?
Thanks.

"Declare a bind variable and put the result in this bind variable, then you can print after the return of PL/SQL.
You cannot print DURING PL/SQL block execution."
That won't work. I need to print the values from INSIDE the loop.
Where can I store them temporarily, and then access after the loop completes?
