Yes, we can have procedure in the specification but not in the package body. The use of this is that we can write any code in that procedure later on.

Thanks Nidhi for your reply...
But i think it is not possible,if you try to do this you will get error.....
and logically its fine,its Compilation error.....Its not in Specification but in body then its ok but vice-versa is not true.....

well if u write procedure only in body then its a private subprogram which can be accesed only by subprograms inside the package not from outside.

Hi,
Its Not possible..... all the sub programs declared in spec must be implemented in the body. In this case these sub programs will be private for this package only.

No, You can add the proc in body and not declare it in the spec.. this is ok as it would mean that that proc is a private procedure but visa versa is not possible. It would give compilation error.
