Could some one help me with creating a example, to implement a dynamic query that uses IN clause and populate the results to cursor. The input parameter could be array or string concatenated.
I have been trying a lot but no successful.
Thanks..

Clasic situation everyone has. You can form a Query string dynamically based on your array or sometthing. And use as OPEN CURSOR. .
DECLARE
v_mystring VARCHAR(50);
v_my_ref_cursor sys_refcursor;
in_string varchar2='''abc'',''bcd''';
id2 varchar2(10):='123';
myrecord tablename%rowtype;
BEGIN
v_mystring := 'SELECT a.*... from tablename a where name= :id2 and
id in('||in_string||')';
OPEN v_my_ref_cursor FOR v_mystring USING id2;
LOOP
FETCH v_my_ref_cursor INTO myrecord;
EXIT WHEN v_my_ref_cursor%NOTFOUND;
..
-- your processing
END LOOP;
CLOSE v_my_ref_cursor;
END;
IN clause supports maximum of 1000 items. You can always use a table to join instead.
That table might be a Global Temporary Table(GTT)
whose data is visible to thats particular session.
Still you can use a nested table
also for it(like PL/SQL table)
TABLE()
will convert a PL/Sql table as a SQL understandable table object(an object actually)
A simple example of it below.
CREATE TYPE pr AS OBJECT
(pr NUMBER);
/
CREATE TYPE prList AS TABLE OF pr;
/
declare
myPrList prList := prList ();
cursor lc is
select *
from (select a.*
from yourtable a
TABLE(CAST(myPrList as prList)) my_list
where
a.pr = my_list.pr
order by a.pr desc) ;
rec lc%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
/*Populate the Nested Table, with whatever collection you have */
myPrList := prList ( pr(91),
pr(80));
/*
Sample code: for populating from your TABLE OF NUMBER type
FOR I IN 1..your_input_array.COUNT
LOOP
myPrList.EXTEND;
myPrList(I) := pr(your_input_array(I));
END LOOP;
*/
open lc;
loop
FETCH lc into rec;
exit when lc%NOTFOUND; -- Your Exit WHEN condition should be checked afte FETCH iyself!
dbms_output.put_line(rec.pr);
end loop;
close lc;
END;
