I'm trying to convert the SQL Query to Oracle PL/SQL stored procedure.
Here is the query:
select * from table1 where DATE = " + s1 + " and TYPE='" + ty + "' and NAME='"+nm+"' Order by TYPE DEsc;
Here is the Stored Procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE procedure1
(
s1 IN DATE,
ty IN CHAR DEFAULT 2,
nm IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 64
)
IS
d table1.DATE%TYPE;
C table1.TYPE%TYPE;
S table1.NAME%TYPE;
CURSOR tb IS select DATE,TYPE,NAME INTO d,c,s from table1;
BEGIN
FOR i IN tb
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('DATE' ||i.DATE);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('TYPE' ||i.TYPE);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('NAME' ||i.NAME);
END LOOP;
END procedure1;
I do not see any output after Executing Stored procedure. I'm not sure if I have created the stored procedure correctly.

"I do not see any output after Executing Stored procedure"
Your "output" is DBMS_OUTPUT which is for displaying text to a screen. However, by default it writes the text to a buffer, and we need to enable the output to see the contents of the buffer.
How to do this varies depending on which client you're using. In SQL*Plus it's
SQL> set serveroutput on
In an IDE like TOAD, PLSQL Developer or Oracle SQL Developer there's a separate DBMS_OUTPUT tab: click on the tab and enable output (there's a button) - or set Preferences to always have it on.
DBMS_OUTPUT is rarely a useful means for returning data in an actual application. The normal approach is to use a Ref Cursor, which maps to JDBC and ODBC ResultSet classes. Something like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE procedure1
(
s1 IN DATE,
ty IN CHAR DEFAULT 2,
nm IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 64,
rc out sys_refcursor
)
IS
BEGIN
open rc for
select * from table1
where d = s1
and c = ty
and s = nm;
END procedure1;
/
Incidentally, your parameters are defined with string datatypes but the defaults are numeric values. Please don't get into bad habits. Strong datatyping is a key defence against data corruption and broken code, so always use the correct data type.

try this;
CREATE PROCEDURE PROCEDURE1 (
S1 IN DATE,
TY IN CHAR DEFAULT 2,
NM IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 64
)
IS
BEGIN
FOR I IN (SELECT DATE, TYPE, NAME FROM TABLE1)--Easier way to use cursor
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('DATE' || I.DATE);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('TYPE' || I.TYPE);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('NAME' || I.NAME);
END LOOP;
END PROCEDURE1;
by executing this you only created the procedure and stored it in db, you need to call it and turn on system output to see the output. like this:
set serveroutput on;
begin
PROCEDURE1(null, null, null);
end;

What environment are using to compile your code? You should certainly be seeing some immediate feedback.
Note that in most environments, though, you need to do a little more than you did before.
The final ";" in your code is part of PL/SQL. It does not trigger execution of your DDL. Generally you should do this:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE myproc
IS
BEGIN
...
END myproc;
/
And that "/" will submit your statement for execution.
