I saw a similar question for SqlDB but after

Answer 1

Yes, it is possible to have more than one out parameter. Here's an example that I use to call an Oracle stored procedure in c#:

OracleParameter op = null;
OracleDataReader dr = null;

/* custom code here. Yours would look a little different */
OracleCommand cmd = (OracleCommand) this.FactoryCache.Connection.CreateCommand();

cmd.CommandText = "pkg_prov_index.getNextPanel";
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

op = new OracleParameter("pCurrentPanelId", OracleType.VarChar);
op.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input;
op.Value = masterProviderIndex.CurrentPanelId;
cmd.Parameters.Add(op);

op = new OracleParameter("pRefCursor", OracleType.Cursor);
op.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
cmd.Parameters.Add(op);

op = new OracleParameter("pReturnCode", OracleType.Number);
op.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
op.Size = 5;
cmd.Parameters.Add(op);

op = new OracleParameter("pReturnMessage", OracleType.VarChar);
op.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
op.Size = 4000;
cmd.Parameters.Add(op);

cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

returnCode = Convert.ToInt16(cmd.Parameters[2].Value);
returnMessage = cmd.Parameters[3].Value.ToString();

dr = (OracleDataReader) cmd.Parameters[1].Value;

while (dr.Read()) {
}
