Using Object IDs (OIDs)
in Oracle 8
Oracle Tips by Mike Ault |
Introduction
In releases of Oracle previous to ORACLE8 the
most complex identifier we had to deal with was the ROWID pseudo
column. While the ROWID is still present in ORACLE8 (indeed, it has
been expanded) it is no longer the ultimate identifier for rows in
and ORACLE8 object, the new king of the hill is the Object
Identifier or OID. In this paper I will present what an OID is and
how they will be used in ORACLE8 for reference of rows in ORACLE8
objects.
