AALi writes "Hi,

I came form oracle background.In oracle we define global variable package which we can set.As we move our application to SQL server I was wondering if we can do the same.

our application in java call oracle database

set global package variables by call <packagename>.function
this function set global variable by 'execute <packagename>.function' then in our java program we call this for each variable to get the value set
'declare x varchar2(1000);
begin
x := <packagename>.variablename;
end;'

So as I see no package concept in SQL server . I am thinking for using stored procedure by how can I get variable set. If I can have snipped code for that it will be great.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks,
AAli

What sort of variables are you setting ??
I suspect that you would be wanting to pass your variables into the parameters of the stored procedures that you call.

Otherwise you could store the variables in rows of a configuration table.
If they are more of a constant in nature, you could create user-defined functions to return the values to wish.
