Re: How to hook up x$dual

[Tim Gorman]

You'd need to do something like this under the SYS account:

SQL> create view v_$dual

2    as

3    select dummy

4    from x$dual

5    where inst_id = userenv('INSTANCE');

 

View created.

 

SQL> grant select on v_$dual to public;

 

Permission granted.

 

SQL> create public synonym v$dual for v_$dual;

 

Synonym created.

This would leave you with a publicly available view called V$DUAL...

 

Hope this helps...

Subject: How to hook up x$dual

Hello All

Im looking to experiment with using x$dual opposed to dual.
from my reading
http://www.optimaldba.com/internals/oraint_dual.html
Which refers to using the memort structure of X$DUAL....

if I
SQL>desc x$dual
ORA-04043: object x$dual does not exist

So how do I hook up x$dual??

Ive searched orafaq, google, and comp.os.oracle.databases with no avail

I recall this was a topic here a while back but nothing on how to create
x$dual if it dosnt exist??

its not in this select
select table_name from dba_tables where owner = 'SYS';

Is this suposed to be an actual created table or a "memory object" and
how can I create/use in it place of dual


thanks
bob
