Re: OpenLDAP+Oracle10g



Hello

A question about the procedure "set_person_name" of the testdata_metadata.sql 
for Oracle.

Default, it was written as:
---------
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE set_person_name(keyval IN NUMBER, new_name IN varchar2) AS
BEGIN
UPDATE persons SET name=new_name WHERE id=keyval;
END;
/
---------

* What does this "new_name" mean? 
It seemed like "new_name" does not exist in the tables which has been 
created by the backsql_create.sql and testdb_create.sql or any back-sql 
source.

Is it a internal identifier of Oracle itself? 

Almost I don't know Oracle internal tables (for example, dual) clearly. 

Best regards
Pu
