Hi !
 
I work in a company using Firebird 2.1.
 
I built a procedure having an single output parameter. If I use it inside a single Select command or inside a View, it works fine.
 
The question is: if I want to see the structure of a view that calls that procedure, I can´t see it. Instead, I receive an error message that says "Precompiler Error: 'B341VALIDARCB'." (in a generic manner, "Precompiler Error: '[procedure name]'.".
 
I'd like to see the structure of the vision that I need. If I get this message, I think something must be wrong with either the procedure or the view.
 
I send the image of the structure attached.
 
The basic procedure code is bellow.:
CREATE PROCEDURE B341VALIDARCB(
  COD_BANCO VARCHAR(3) CHARACTER SET WIN1252 DEFAULT NULL,
  COD_AGENCIA VARCHAR(4) CHARACTER SET WIN1252 DEFAULT NULL,
  CARTEIRA VARCHAR(3) CHARACTER SET WIN1252 DEFAULT NULL,
  CONTA VARCHAR(6) CHARACTER SET WIN1252 DEFAULT NULL,
  VALOR DECIMAL(18, 2) DEFAULT 0,
  NOSSO_DOCUMENTO VARCHAR(8) CHARACTER SET WIN1252 DEFAULT NULL,
  CODIGODEBARRAS VARCHAR(50) CHARACTER SET WIN1252 DEFAULT NULL)
RETURNS(
  AVALIACAO VARCHAR(50) CHARACTER SET WIN1252)
AS
BEGIN
  AVALIACAO = '';

 
  IF (some condition) THEN
    AVALIACAO = AVALIACAO || 'Cód.do banco errado - ';
 
  IF (another condition) THEN
    AVALIACAO = AVALIACAO || 'Cód.da agência errado - ';
 
   /* other conditions */
  
  IF (AVALIACAO = '') THEN
    AVALIACAO = 'Código de barras ok';
  SUSPEND;
END;
 
No special condition, and the output field is handled only to receive the value according to the logical results inside the procedure.
 
And if you look at the picture I send, you will see that the procedure is called by a sub Select inside the view.
  
Does someone can give me some light about the possible problem in the code or in the solution itself ? Or is this a bug ?
 
Thanks a lot, best regards,
Roberto Camargo.
