Part VI. Advanced PL/SQL Topics

A language as mature and rich as PL/SQL is packed full of features that you may not use on a day-to-day basis, but that may make the crucial difference between success and failure. This part of the book contains an exploration into the PL/SQL runtime architecture (Chapter 20), including PL/SQL’s use of memory and differences between server-side and client-side PL/SQL. Chapter 21 offers an in-depth guide to using the object-oriented features of Oracle (object types and object views). Chapter 22 and Chapter 23 show you how to invoke Java and C code from your PL/SQL applications.
