How to return and test a ref cursor

Need a short example:

I have a package with declaration of cursor, cursor type, and stored procedure. I have the package body with the stored procedure which returns a ref cursor (output)

My question:

How do I code a sample call and test the results of the stored procedure (ref cursor) from SQLPLUS?

egavish@snet.net

Code:

---

scott@oracle> create or replace package test as
  2  type testcursor is ref cursor;
  3  procedure testcur(output out testcursor);
  4  end;
  5  /

Package created.

scott@oracle> create or replace package body test as
  2  procedure testcur(output out testcursor) is
  3    begin
  4      open output for select empno, ename from emp;
  5    end;
  6  end;
  7  /

Package body created.

scott@oracle> var c refcursor
scott@oracle> exec test.testcur(:c)

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

scott@oracle> print c
