[section:multi_resultset Multi-resultset: stored procedures and multi-queries]
[heading Using stored procedures]
[mysqllink create-procedure.html Stored procedures] can be called using the `CALL` SQL statement.
You can use `CALL` statements from both text queries and prepared statements, in a similar way
to other SQL statements. Contrary to other statements, `CALL` may generate more than one resultset.
For example, given a stored procedure like this:
__sp_get_employees__
A statement like `CALL get_employees('my_company')` will generate three resultsets:
* A first resultset containing the company matched by the first `SELECT`.
* A second resultset containing the employees matched by the second `SELECT`.
* A third, empty resultset containing information about the `CALL` statement.
Every resultset contains its own rows, metadata, last insert ID, affected rows and so on.
[heading Calling procedures using the dynamic interface]
The same [reflink results] class we've been using supports storing more than one resultset.
You can execute a `CALL` statement as any other SQL statement:
[multi_resultset_call_dynamic]
In this context, `results` can be seen as a random-access collection of resultsets. You can access
resultsets by index using [refmem results at] and [reflink2 results.operator__lb__rb_ results::operator[]].
These operations yield a [reflink resultset_view], which is a lightweight object pointing into memory owned by the `results`
object. You can take ownserhip of a `resultset_view` using the [reflink resultset] class. For example:
[multi_resultset_results_as_collection]
[heading Calling procedures using the static interface]
The [reflink static_results] class supports operations that return multiple
resultsets, too. As with other SQL statements, we need to define the row types
in our resultsets in advance:
[describe_stored_procedures]
We can now use `static_results`, passing it as many template arguments as
resultsets we expect. The library will check that the correct number of
resultsets are actually returned by the server, and will parse them into
the row types that we provided:
[multi_resultset_call_static]
Use [refmem static_results rows] with an explicit index to access each resultset's data.
You can also use explicit indices with the other accessor functions,
like [refmem static_results meta] and [refmem static_results last_insert_id].
For more information about the static interface, please refer to [link mysql.static_interface this section].
[heading Determining the number of resultsets]
To know the number of resultsets to expect from a `CALL` statement, use these rules:
* For every statement that retrieves data (e.g. a `SELECT` statement), a resultset is sent.
`SELECT ... INTO <variables>` statements don't cause a resultset to be sent.
* Statements that don't retrieve columns (e.g. `UPDATE`, `DELETE`) don't cause a resultset to be sent.
* An empty resultset containing information about the `CALL` statement execution is always sent last.
Some examples:
[!teletype]
```
-- Calling proc1 produces only 1 resultset because it only contains statements that
-- don't retrieve data
CREATE PROCEDURE proc1(IN pin_order_id INT, IN pin_quantity INT)
BEGIN
START TRANSACTION;
UPDATE orders SET quantity = pin_quantity WHERE id = pin_order_id;
INSERT INTO audit_log (msg) VALUES ("Updated order...");
COMMIT;
END
```
[!teletype]
```
-- Calling proc2 produces 3 resultsets: one for the orders SELECT, one for the
-- line_items SELECT, and one for the CALL statement
CREATE PROCEDURE proc2(IN pin_order_id INT)
BEGIN
START TRANSACTION READ ONLY;
SELECT * FROM orders WHERE id = pin_order_id;
SELECT * FROM line_items WHERE order_id = pin_order_id;
COMMIT;
END
```
[heading Output parameters]
You can get the value of `OUT` and `INOUT` parameters in stored procedures by using
prepared statement placeholders for them. When doing this, you will receive another resultset
with a single row containing all output parameter values. This resultset is located after
all resultsets generated by `SELECT`s, and before the final, empty resultset.
For example, given this procedure:
__sp_create_employee__
You can use:
[multi_resultset_out_params]
[refmem results out_params] simplifies the process.
[warning
Due to a bug in MySQL, some `OUT` parameters are sent with wrong types.
Concretely, string parameters are always sent as blobs, so you will have to
use [refmem field_view as_blob] instead of [refmem field_view as_string].
]
[heading:multi_queries Semicolon-separated queries]
It is possible to run several semicolon-separated text queries in a single [refmem connection execute] call.
For security, this capability is disabled by default. Enabling it requires setting [refmem handshake_params multi_queries]
before connecting:
[multi_resultset_multi_queries]
Note that statements like `DELIMITER` [*do not work] using this feature. This is because
`DELIMITER` is a pseudo-command for the `mysql` command line tool, not actual SQL.
You can also use the static interface with multi-queries. It works the same as with stored procedures.
