Stored procedures within a package  RPCs processed by DirectConnect for Oracle

Chapter 4: Executing Remote Procedure Calls

RPC restrictions

When handling RPC parameters of datatype tinyint, only valid values (between 0 and 255) can be passed back. If the backend database returns a negative value, it is passed to the user as a NULL value. Sybase recommends the smallint datatype because it can handle negative numbers correctly.

Oracle stored procedures with long and long raw datatypes are not supported with output parameters. long raw input parameters are not supported.
