Advanced Oracle PL/SQL Programming with Packages
by Steven Feuerstein


Here are the changes from the 3/98 reprint:


{12}: 1st para. under "Referencing Package Elements" is new:

A package "owns" its elements, just as a table owns its columns. An
individual element of a package only makes sense, in fact, in the
context of the package. Consequently, you use the same dot notation
employed in "table.column" syntax for "package.element". Let's take a
look at this practice by calling elements of the pets_r_us package.


{480}: last para. before heading: changed "the rows will have been
written to PLVrfrnc" to "the rows will have been written to PLVctlg"


(664): added the following to the next-to-last para.:

Whenever possible, our books use RepKover (tm), a durable and flexible
lay-flat binding. If the page count exceeds RepKover's limit, perfect
binding is used.
