Can I execute Oracle procedures through satement

[Ann Sebastian]

I need to execute Oracle procedure through statement rather than using CallableStatement..Is there some way to do this

[David O'Meara]

Which Oracle procedures are you referring to?
While I do not recommend this, it is often possible to cast to the specific Oracle type and use the 'Oracle extensions' to perform some Oracle specific behaviour. These are just extra methods hidden by the JDBC interface.

The procedures are database stored procedures which I have to access through jdbc statement .I want to use Statement instead of CallableStatement

[David O'Meara]

Then you should use CallableStatement. 'Not wanting to' is not a good reason not to use it
