Hello Elke, IMHO simplicity is our friend :-) Until now I haven't make any use of it. Anyway, if this could to cause any trouble to any of happy users of SAP DB/ MaxDB maybe it would be good idea to publish somewhere (i.e. docs?) the definition of the views which will return the data as the removed ones do so the people could add the appropriate views on their own and only change view owner in select clause. Sounds good?
Best regards, Marcin Pytel -- Uzytkownik "Zabach, Elke" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> napisal w wiadomosci news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi everybody, during a discussion of further work to be done, we, some member of the MaxDB development-team, found out, that we would like to get rid of the systemviews belonging to user/schema SYS and defined for compatibility- reasons with Oracle version 7. As our main customer (SAP applications) does not use these systemviews, but those systemviews belonging to user/schema DOMAIN / <sysdba> / SYSINFO, we do not see the need to have those Oracle-like-views any more. The info can be found in the MaxDB-systemviews as well. We would like to throw them away in a version called 7.7. As there is no 7.7 out and it will last several months until the first 7.7 version will leave the development group there is no need to worry about the next 7.6-version or the like. There would be enough time to change the select in case you use one or two of these systemviews. Now the question: Who really NEEDS those systemviews like ALL_CATALOG, USER_TABLES and so on? Please give us some feedback as we do not want to throw away things which are really needed, but things which causes some trouble internally, but are of no use to anybody.
