Oracle Deref 函数：参数数量或类型错误

Question

我正在尝试在 Oracle 中创建一个对象方法，如下所示：

CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE BODY TheType AS
    MEMBER FUNCTION getAtt RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
    BEGIN
        RETURN DEREF(SELF.Att).Att2;
    END;
END;
/

但我收到以下错误：

PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'DEREF'

TheType 类型也声明如下：

PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'DEREF'

以及超类型的定义：

CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE TheType UNDER SuperType ();
/

...

ALTER TYPE TheType ADD ATTRIBUTE ( Att REF TheType ) CASCADE;

...

ALTER TYPE TheType 
    ADD MEMBER FUNCTION getAtt RETURN VARCHAR2
CASCADE;

我给 DEREF 函数一个类型正确的 var，为什么会出现此错误？

如果我信任Oracle 文档，它应该可以工作

谢谢。

将 DEREF 转换为 SQL。例如

SQL> create or replace type supertype as object ( att2 varchar2(50) )
  2  not final not instantiable;
  3  /

Type created.

SQL> create or replace type thetype under supertype (
  2  att ref thetype,
  3  member function getatt return varchar2);
  4  /

Type created.

SQL> show errors type thetype
No errors.
SQL> create or replace type body thetype as
  2    member function getatt return varchar2 is
  3      v_t thetype;
  4    begin
  5             select deref(self.att) into v_t from dual;
  6             return v_t.att2;
  7    end;
  8  end;
  9  /

Type body created.

SQL> show errors type body thetype
No errors.
SQL> create table thetypes of thetype;

Table created.

SQL> insert into thetypes values ('hi there', null);

1 row created.

SQL> set serverout on
SQL> declare
  2    v_t thetype;
  3  begin
  4    select thetype(null, ref(a)) into v_t from thetypes a;
  5    dbms_output.put_line(v_t.getatt);
  6  end;
  7  /
hi there
