Overloading: Multiple subprograms of the same name

• Enables you to use the same name for different
subprograms inside a PL/SQL block, a subprogram, or a
package

• Requires the formal parameters of the subprograms to
differ in number, order, or data type family

• Enables you to build more flexibility because a user or
application is not restricted by the specific data type or
number of formal parameters

Note: Only local or packaged subprograms can be overloaded.
You cannot overload stand-alone subprograms.

Answer / monika

No, Only packaged procedures and procedures exists in
pl/sql blocks can be overloaded.Stored procedures can't.

Answer / vipin kumar

This is how its works

create or replace package vips_test as
function addition(a1 in number, b in number, c1 in number default 0) return number;
function addition(a1 in number, b in number ,d1 in number default 0) return number;
end;
/
show errors;


create or replace package body vips_test as

function addition(a1 in number, b in number, c1 in number default 0)
return number is
begin
dbms_output.put_line('---------------1----------------------');

return a1+b+c1;
end;


function addition(a1 in number, b in number ,d1 in number default 0)
return number is
begin
dbms_output.put_line('---------------2----------------------');

return a1+b+d1;
end;


end;
/
show errors;


select vips_test.addition(a1 => 1 ,b =>2, c1 => 2) from dual;

but if you will try calling as above

select vips_test.addition(a1 => 1 ,b =>2) from dual;

SQL Error: ORA-06553: PLS-307: too many declarations of 'ADDITION' match this call
06553. 00000 - "PLS-%s: %s"
