Hello Listers,
I have what I hope is challenging problem.
I am trying to create a procedure that execs from a trigger on a table.
Simple enough.
But I want to capture the OSUSER value from v$session so that the there is a
history of changes to the table and by whom.
Problem with using USER function is that all the users access the server via
a third party app and therefore have one username.
Pretty pointless for this effort then, as I could update the column in the
history table with that user and be done with it.
But the use of UID also does not work because that brings back a whole list
of all the OSUSER value.
ie
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST(TST_HIST IN TEST_TBL%ROWTYPE)
IS
V_UID NUMBER;
V_OSUSER
BEGIN
BEGIN
SELECT UID
INTO V_UID
FROM DUAL;
END;
BEGIN
SELECT OSUSER
INTO V_OSUSER
FROM V$SESSION
WHERE OSUSER := V_UID;
END
rest of procedure.....Includes insert etc
END TEST
Now obviously this returns more than one row as all the users use the same
username through the app.
Any suggestion?
Many TIA
