Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Different behavior of Too_many_rows exception in pl/sql between v7&v8i
We noticed a different behavior with too_many_rows exception in v7 and v8i. Is this a bug or that's the way it should work in 8i?
I really appreciate your feedback on this.
Thanks & Regards,
Prasad

v_table_name user_tables.table_name%TYPE;

v_table_name := null;
select table_name
into v_table_name
from user_tables;
dbms_output.put_line('v_table_name : '||nvl(v_table_name,'null'));
exception
when too_many_rows then
dbms_output.put_line('too_many_rows exception, v_table_name : '
||nvl(v_table_name,'null'));
when others then
dbms_output.put_line(sqlerrm);
end;

In v7.3, It keeps value remains null in v_table_name column and v8i it is
assigning the first received value.
In both cases, It is raising too_many_rows exception.
Output in v7.3:
too_many_rows exception, v_table_name : null
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
Output in v8.1.7, v8.1.6, v8.1.5
too_many_rows exception, v_table_name : CHAMPION_LIFE_DGNSS_CATEGORY
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
