can we retrieve data from oracle in-built tables using oracle forms?

10 New Member
hi,
My question is can we retrieve data from oracle in built tables like dba_users, dba_roles, dba_role_privs on to a text field using oracle forms. If yes then what're the privileges that needs to be assigned? How can this be done. What other criteria needs to be satisfied?
If the answer is no, then what could be the other probable solution to this. Can any one help on this as this is quite urgent and important for me.

Thanks,
maanasa

Yes you should be able to becuase from Oracle FORMS u connect to one of the DB instances.
But the user should have SELECT privileges on these tables to query from them.

since those are system tables ,better ask your DBA to grant select previliges to you on those .

I've got an STL class (see below) with two functions to store and retrieve data - msg structs. The "Store" function when called will copy the received message (depending on which message) into the appropriate array. For instance if I receive a RCVD_MSG1, I'll copy into msg1 . Upon receipt of the next RCVD_MSG1. I'll copy into msg1 . The Retrieve function when called should retrieve the latest copy. ie. msg1 or msg1 .

/* It seems that when an int with width of four bytes is assigned to a one byte width char, the first three bytes from left to right are discarded and the rightest byte is assigned to that char. So, I can just assign an int to a char to retrieve the rightest byte of that int, and I also use this method plus right-shift operation to get the leftest byte of an int.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
