Symptoms

Using JDBC 11.2.0.2 (ojdbc6.jar) and JDK 1.6, a java program using the statements below works as expected:

java TestJDBCcall
JDBC driver version is 11.2.0.2.0
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-06550: line 1, column 14:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "BEGIN" when expecting one of the following:

<a string literal with character set specification>

<an alternatively-quoted string literal with character set specification>

All the above statements work with no issues when using JDBC 11.1.0.7.
