OUT and INOUT parameters are only supported for local variables, and OUT and INOUT parameters are also works for user variables ("global"
therefore only useful when calling such procedures from within another variables) - i.e., if a procedure is defined as:
procedure. CREATE PROCEDURE foo(OUT p INT) ...;
