Name

DBMS_REPCAT.CREATE_SNAPSHOT_REPOBJECT

Synopsis

The CREATE_SNAPSHOT_REPOBJECT procedure adds an object to a specified snapshot replication group at a snapshot site. For new snapshot objects, this procedure generates row-level replication triggers for snapshots if the master table uses row-level replication. The specifications differ for Oracle7 and Oracle8 as follows. (Note the addition of the min_communication parameter in Oracle8.)

Oracle7 specification:

PROCEDURE DBMS_REPCAT. CREATE_SNAPSHOT_REPOBJECT
   (sname IN VARCHAR2,
    oname IN VARCHAR2,
    type IN VARCHAR2,
    ddl_text IN VARCHAR2 := '',
    comment IN VARCHAR2 := '',
    gname IN VARCHAR2 := '',
    gen_objs_owner IN VARCHAR2 := '');

Oracle8 specification:

PROCEDURE DBMS_REPCAT.CREATE_SNAPSHOT_REPOBJECT
   (sname IN VARCHAR2,
    oname IN VARCHAR2,
    type IN VARCHAR2,
    ddl_text IN VARCHAR2 := '',
    comment IN VARCHAR2 := '',
    gname IN VARCHAR2 := '',
    gen_objs_owner IN VARCHAR2 := '',
    min_communication IN BOOLEAN := TRUE);
