I need to whip out a PL/SQL procedure real quick today and have a quick
question for fellow-listers ( since today is Friday, hopefully I don't get
RTFMed on this one :) )
The purpose of my procedure is to collect stats from v$session_wait
periodically ( every second for example) and pump the data into a stats
table.
But how to make the procedure to wait for a specified time? I know of the
option of using dbms_jobs to handle this. But I am wondering if there is a
similar
function in PL/SQL similar as the Unix 'sleep' command.
TIA
