Re: EXEC Vs EXECUTE IMMEDIATE IN HANA?

Thanks again Vaibhav !

Yes. I think I got your point while using Dynamic column names and here is the code below, i tried and executed and observed the difference between EXEC and EXECUTE IMMEDIATE.

--Creating a table

CREATETABLE tab (id int,name nvarchar(20),age integer);

--inserting data into table

insertinto tab values(30,'abc',15);

insertinto tab values(20,'xyz',17);

insertinto tab values(15,'pqr',16);

--creating procedure to perform dynamic sql

CREATEPROCEDURE proc_dynamic_result2(in col1 varchar(20),in col2 varchar(20)) AS

BEGIN

EXECUTEIMMEDIATE'SELECT ' || :col1 || ','||  :col2 ||' FROM tab ';

END;

--calling procedure

call proc_dynamic_result2('name','id');

callproc_dynamic_result2('id','age');

callproc_dynamic_result2('name','age');

Note: Result is displayed in procedures result iterator, but when I ran with just EXEC result was not displayed in the procedures result iterator .

Thanks,
