Retrieve repository def from the data dictionary of oracle

[manuk]

Hello,

Maybe you can help me...
I'm using Uniface 9.3 and oracle 10.

How can I create a uniface form that can retrieve repository definitions (like tables, fields...) from the data dictionary of oracle?

Hi,

load the definitions of the Uniface metadictionary (= repository) with:

.....idf.exe /ins meta

If you want to have a look at the ORACLE internal tables,

just define them as a uniface view.
With Oracle, you may use the Load Definitions Utility,
but I heard that there are somw workarounds needed
because the last database driver does not support LDU any more

SUccess, Uli

Thanks.
