Problems with DEFAULT-Values in Packages

[hcdb]

PLDoc-parser has problems, if input-parameter(s) of functions or procedures in packages do have a DEFAULT-value defined.

example:
FUNCTION Test
( I_ID IN NUMBER
, I_Name IN VARCHAR2
, I_CDate IN DATE DEFAULT SYSDATE
)
  RETURN  VARCHAR2;

I do not have any problems with that example (pldoc  0.8.2):

create or replace package xxx as

FUNCTION Test
( I_ID IN NUMBER
, I_Name IN VARCHAR2
, I_CDate IN DATE DEFAULT SYSDATE
)
  RETURN  VARCHAR2;

end;

[hcdb]

Sorry for that massage, we had a typo.
...DEFAULT(2)

By writing '...DEFAULT 2' or '...DEFAULT '2' ' everything is ok.

The only amazing thing is, that our package was valid. In Oracle-docu I haven't found any entry for that syntax.

Sorry again, and thanks a lot for your answer

Since the DEFAULT can be an expression, parentheses are legitimately possible.  But for the writer of PLDoc, trying to recreate a 100% compliant SQL *and* PL/SQL parser is expecting a lot.

There was a little nasty error that caused this problem.
Registered bug 1028068.

Fixed in CVS.
When the next nightly release will be created, the fix will be there.
