  • 0

I’m working on a package with some procedures in them and I’m running into a bit of trouble. When I try to test the procedure to convert gallons to liters or the other procedures, it just prints out what was declared in the unnamed block instead of converting the numbers. Any ideas?

CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE eng_metric  IS    PROCEDURE convert(degree_fahrenheit  IN OUT NUMBER,degree_celsius  IN OUT NUMBER,measure  IN VARCHAR2);     PROCEDURE convert(liters  IN OUT NUMBER,gallons  IN OUT NUMBER);  END eng_metric;  /   CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY eng_metric  AS    PROCEDURE Convert         (degree_fahrenheit  IN OUT NUMBER,          degree_celsius     IN OUT NUMBER,          measure            IN VARCHAR2)    IS      df         NUMBER;      dc         NUMBER;      convertf   NUMBER;      measurecf  VARCHAR2(4);    BEGIN      measurecf := measure;       df := degree_fahrenheit;       dc := degree_celsius;       IF measure = 'TEMP' THEN        IF dc = NULL THEN          convertf := ((df - 32) * .56);           degree_fahrenheit := convertf;           dbms_output.Put_line('The temperature in fahrenheit is '                               ||To_char(degree_fahrenheit));        ELSIF df = NULL THEN          convertf := (dc + 17.98) * 1.8;           degree_celsius := convertf;        END IF;      ELSE        dbms_output.Put_line('Invalid measure');      END IF;    END convert;     PROCEDURE Convert         (liters   IN OUT NUMBER,          gallons  IN OUT NUMBER)    IS      lit        NUMBER;      gal        NUMBER;      convertlg  NUMBER;    BEGIN      lit := liters;       gal := gallons;       IF gal = NULL THEN        convertlg := (lit / 3.785);         liters := convertlg;      ELSIF lit = NULL THEN        convertlg := (gal * 3.785);         gallons := convertlg;      END IF;    END convert;  END eng_metric;  /   DECLARE    liters   NUMBER := 25;     gallons  NUMBER := 41;     nully    NUMBER := NULL;  BEGIN    eng_metric.Convert(nully,gallons);     dbms_output.Put_line(To_char(gallons));  END;  /

    Instead of

    IF gal = NULL THEN 

    you need

    IF gal IS NULL
