PLS-00222: There is no function named "INFO_TYPE" in this area

I am trying to return a table of entries in 2 situations:

  • using function
  • using an anonymous block

When I use the function, everything works fine, but when I try to convert it to an anonymous block, I get the above error. Here are the codes:

For function:

create or replace 
function get_info(p_city varchar2) return info_type_table
as
l_info info_type_table := info_type_table();
begin
    for i in (select  e.employeeid, 
                      e.lastname, 
                      c.customerid,
                      c.companyname,
                      o.orderid,
                      o.orderdate
              from  ntw_employees e
                inner join 
                    ntw_orders    o
                    on e.employeeid = o.employeeid
                inner join 
                    ntw_customers c
                    on o.customerid = c.customerid
              where e.city  = p_city)
    loop
        l_info.extend;
        l_info(l_info.count)  :=  (info_type(i.employeeid, i.lastname, i.customerid, i.companyname, i.orderid, i.orderdate));
    end loop;
    return l_info;
end;

And for an anonymous block:

declare
type info_type is record 
(
    emp_no    number(3),
    lastname  varchar2(26),
    cust_no   varchar2(5),
    CO_name   varchar2(50),
    orderid   number(5),
    orderdate date
);

type info_type_table is table of info_type;

l_info info_type_table := info_type_table();
begin
    for i in (select  e.employeeid, 
                      e.lastname, 
                      c.customerid,
                      c.companyname,
                      o.orderid,
                      o.orderdate
              from  ntw_employees e
                inner join 
                    ntw_orders    o
                    on e.employeeid = o.employeeid
                inner join 
                    ntw_customers c
                    on o.customerid = c.customerid
              where e.city  = 'London')
    loop
        l_info.extend;
        l_info(l_info.count)  :=  (info_type(i.employeeid, i.lastname, i.customerid, i.companyname, i.orderid, i.orderdate));
        dbms_output.put_line('angajat = ' || i.employeeid);
    end loop;
end;

Can someone explain to me what is wrong in my anonymous block, please?

Thank.
