Parameters:
p_id | A unique identifier for the registered remote node. Datatype: in integer
Returns: This function returns a node record, or null if not found. Exceptions: If the node with the specified node ID is not found, a NODE_NOT_FOUND_EXCEPTION is raised. If an error occurs when retrieving the node with the specified node ID, a NODE_RETRIEVAL_EXCEPTION is raised. If an error occurs when retrieving the database connection information, a NODE_DB_LINK_EXCEPTION is raised. Note: This and other provider node APIs add error messages to the error stack before they raise exceptions. This allows users to interrogate the error stack if a problem occurs. Example: l_node_info := wwpro_api_node_registry.find_node ( p_id => l_node_record );

Note
A database link is an object stored in the local database that identifies a remote database, a communication path to the remote database, and, optionally, a username and password for it. Once defined, the database link is used to perform queries on tables in the remote database.
