Oracle PLSQL中的反射？

我正在编写一个过程来处理存储在ANYDATA中的用户定义对象。对象类型和属性名只能在运行时知道，因此我无法在declare部分为其定义变量。在Java中，我可以使用反射来处理它，我可以知道类名和字段名。然后我可以通过反射来访问字段。在PLSQL中有这样做的方法吗？我现在脑子里想的是在过程中动态地创建一个sql字符串并执行它。但这并不是我想要的

比方说，用户A将ADT类型定义为

创建或替换类型Person\u type作为对象（fname varchar2（10），lname varchar2（10））

并创建一个对象实例，并将其插入到ANYDATA中

在我的过程中，不知何故我知道我需要处理这个对象的第一个属性，即fname。因此，如果首先知道adt类型，我的代码如下：

declare
  adobject A.Person_type; -- HERE! I don't know the type yet, so I can't define adobject!
  tempAnydata anydata;
  rt number;
  vbuffer varchar2(10);
  ...
begin
   select somecolumn 
   into tempAnydata 
   from sometable 
   where something='something' for update;

   rt := tempAnydata.GetObject(adobject);

   vbuffer := adobject.fname; -- HERE! I don't know the attribute name is fname!
   -- deal with vbuffer here
end;

---

那么，我应该做些什么来动态地创建它呢？提前感谢。

您需要使用

ANYTYPE

来描述

ANYDATA

并确保类型正确。然后可以使用

分段

和

getVarchar2

访问该属性

下面的大部分代码用于检查类型，如果您不关心类型安全，则不需要检查类型

如果您知道

tempAnydata

确实是一个

A.person\u类型

，就像您肯定知道的那样（否则，您无法使用正是这种类型的adobject执行

GetObject（adobject）

），那么您也知道该类型的第一个属性是什么。或者我遗漏了什么？A.person\u类型只是一个例子，它可以是任何用户定义的类型。可能是B.anymal_类型或其他类型。静态强类型很糟糕。（脾气暴躁的小人走掉了，自言自语道：——）+1-我要删除我的答案。我仍然认为OP的架构很奇特，但如果他们真的笨重，这是正确的solution@APC我认为你应该保留你的答案，它可能会有帮助。我见过的对象关系解决方案比任何数据都多。（虽然总的来说，我尽量避免使用这两种方法；我对过于通用的解决方案总是有点怀疑。）太棒了！非常感谢你，jonearles。这才是我真正想要的！ANYTYPE，很高兴认识你。它的核心部分（这是我来这里寻找的东西）原来是

anydata.convertobject（self.gettypename（）

（或者如果你在外面查看，用类型实例的名称替换

self

，例如OP示例中的

adobject

）。
