How to handle nonJDBC arguments for Oracle Stored Procedures

The standard way of handling a Stored Procedure is to build an instance of oracle.toplink.queryframework.StoredProcedureCall. However, the arguments must be compatible with the JDBC specification.

To handle nonJDBC arguments (e.g. BOOLEAN, PLS_INTEGER, PL/SQL record, etc.) a new sub-class has been created: oracle.toplink.platform.database.oracle.PLSQLStoredProcedureCall:

For the target procedure:

procedure bool_test(x IN BOOLEAN)

the TopLink code would be:
