Examples Of

Examples of `CREATE PACKAGE`

Create a package header

CREATE PACKAGE APP_VAR
AS
BEGIN
  FUNCTION GET_DATEBEGIN() RETURNS DATE DETERMINISTIC;
  FUNCTION GET_DATEEND() RETURNS DATE DETERMINISTIC;
  PROCEDURE SET_DATERANGE(ADATEBEGIN DATE,
      ADATEEND DATE DEFAULT CURRENT_DATE);
END

With DEFINER set for package pk, user US needs only the EXECUTE privilege on pk.If it were set for INVOKER, either the user or the package would also need the INSERT privilege on table t.

create table t (i integer);
set term ^;
create package pk SQL SECURITY DEFINER
as
begin
    function f(i integer) returns int;
end^

create package body pk
as
begin
    function f(i integer) returns int
    as
    begin
      insert into t values (:i);
      return i + 1;
    end
end^
set term ;^
grant execute on package pk to user us;

commit;

connect 'localhost:/tmp/69.fdb' user us password 'pas';
select pk.f(3) from rdb$database;

`ALTER PACKAGE`

Alters a package header

Available in

DSQL

Syntax

ALTER PACKAGE package_name
[SQL SECURITY {INVOKER | DEFINER}]
AS
BEGIN
  [ <package_item> ... ]
END

!! See syntax of CREATE PACKAGE for further rules!!

The ALTER PACKAGE statement modifies the package header.It can be used to change the number and definition of procedures and functions, including their input and output parameters.However, the source and compiled form of the package body is retained, though the body might be incompatible after the change to the package header.The validity of a package body for the defined header is stored in the column RDB$PACKAGES.RDB$VALID_BODY_FLAG.

Altering a package without specifying the SQL SECURITY clause will remove the SQL Security property if currently set for this package.This means the behaviour will revert to the database default.
