create type. pls 00363 expression cannot be used as an assignment


help me please to understand this error.. May be i must do ud_mosh_dvig(x number, y number) and create type body after.

create or replace type CAR as object
(
 mosh_dvig number,
 obiem_dvig number,
 color varchar2(20),
 type_form varchar2(20),
 massa number,
 num_peredach number,
 ud_mosh number,
 member function ud_mosh_dvig return number
);

create or replace type body CAR
is
member function ud_mosh_dvig return number
as
begin 
 self.ud_mosh:=self.mosh_dvig/self.massa;
 return self.ud_mosh;
end ud_mosh_dvig;
end;

Solution

  • By default, for every non-static function, implicitly declared self parameter is in IN parameter mode. It means, that it simply cannot be modified. But, it should be noted that for non-static procedures self parameter is in IN OUT default parameter mode.

    Although it is not a good practice to allow a function to return multiple values, change value ud_mosh property of an object and return the same value to the invoker, in this case, you can explicitly declare self parameter of the function in IN OUT parameter mode:

    create or replace type CAR as object (
      mosh_dvig    number,
      obiem_dvig   number,
      color        varchar2(20),
      type_form    varchar2(20),
      massa        number,
      num_peredach number,
      ud_mosh      number,
      member function ud_mosh_dvig(self in out car) return number
    );
    
    TYPE CAR compiled
    
    create or replace type body CAR
    is
      member function ud_mosh_dvig(self in out car) 
      return number as
      begin 
        self.ud_mosh := self.mosh_dvig/self.massa;
        return self.ud_mosh;
      end ud_mosh_dvig;
    end;
    
    TYPE BODY CAR compiled
    

    But you wont be able to use that function in SQL, because of declared formal parameter of the function in IN OUT parameter mode - only PL/SQL

    set serveroutput on;
    clear screen;
    declare
      l_obj  car;
      l_obj1 car;
      l_res number;
    begin
      l_obj := new car(1,1,'1','1',4,1,1);
      l_res := l_obj.ud_mosh_dvig();
      dbms_output.put_line('ud_mosh prop value: ' || l_obj.ud_mosh || chr(13) 
                           || 'Function returns: ' || to_char(l_res));
    end; 
    /
    
    anonymous block completed
    
    ud_mosh prop value: 0.25
    Function returns:   0.25
