How to Display Number of Rows Deleted/Inserted etc... in PL/SQL

AAlsofyaniSep 9 2011 — edited Sep 9 2011
In Oracle 10g PL/SQL, I have a delete statement in a stored procedure. It is not in a cursor. I want to see the number of rows I've deleted. I can use the dbms_output.put_line package. I should know this, but I don't have time to perfect the syntax. How would I get the number of rows that get deleted and display it via dbms_output.put_lline?

For example:
set serveroutput on

begin

   delete  dept;
   
   dbms_output.put_line(sql%rowcount);
   
end;

SQL> create table dt_del_ex(id number);

Table created.

SQL> set serveroutput on
SQL> BEGIN
  2
  3      INSERT INTO dt_del_ex VALUES(1);
  4
  5      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line(TO_CHAR(SQL%ROWCOUNT)||' rows inserted');
  6
  7      INSERT INTO dt_del_ex select rownum from dual connect by level <=10;
  8
  9      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line(TO_CHAR(SQL%ROWCOUNT)||' rows inserted');
 10
 11      UPDATE dt_del_ex SET id = id + 3 WHERE id >= 9;
 12
 13      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line(TO_CHAR(SQL%ROWCOUNT)||' rows updated');
 14
 15      DELETE FROM dt_del_ex WHERE id <= 10;
 16
 17      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line(TO_CHAR(SQL%ROWCOUNT)||' rows deleted');
 18
 19  END;
 20  /
1 rows inserted
10 rows inserted
2 rows updated
9 rows deleted

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
