title: Calling PL/SQL package code in a Java Program
body: <p><strong>I am trying to call a procedure defined with a <code>PL/SQL</code> package in a <code>Java</code> program.</strong></p>
  
  <p>I am aware one can call stored procedures using <code>connection.prepareCall</code> in Jdbc. But there is very little information out there on how to call a procedure within a package.</p>
  
  <p>I am at a stage in development where i am still considering what db framework to use. <strong>Just wondering what are the pros and cons of using JDBC for PLSQL ?  For this usecase are there better alternatives to JDBC ?</strong></p>
