RE: PL/SQL proc calls to a remote DB via DB link

Title: PL/SQL proc calls to a remote DB via DB link

If you create a synonym

 

create myPkgR for user.pkgR@dblinkR;

 

Then you can use

 

MyValR    MyPkgR.typeR;

 

This is much cleaner and less confusing ...

Subject: PL/SQL proc calls to a remote DB via DB link

Listers:

You have 2 DBs, "L" local, "R" remote. From within a PL/SQL package or procedure on the *local* DB, is it legal to:
declare a local variable using a *remote* type:

MyVar_L   userR.pkgR.typeR@dblinkR;

or call a *remote* procedure:

userR.procR(...)@dblinkR;

If it is legal to reference remote pkg/procs, is my syntax correct?
If it is not, how do I accomplish this without having someone login to the remote DB?

Thanx,
