How is this essentially different than what you can get from utldtree.sql?

when Kevin Loney and I were writing the Annotated Archives a few years ago, I
tried to write a script that would show the dependencies, because part of the
reason for the book was to provide "home-grown" scripts that wre documented. I
ended up essentially rewriting the cod from utldtree.sql and we gave up that
particular effort.

Greetings listers,

Ever worry about wrinkles, loss of hair, and bad
breath?

Well, the following script can't help you with THAT,
but it CAN show you a heirarchical list of objects
that depend upon the given object! Just pass in
&1=owner and &2=object name, and viola! No more
changing objects without knowing what depends on them
(and might break). (The reason for the temp table is
that you can't do recursive self-join sql on complex
views.) This can be a very useful script if you make
production database changes.

prompt
prompt objects depending on &1. &2:
prompt

set termout off
set head off
set verify off

drop table depends;

create table depends as select * from
sys.dba_dependencies tablespace tools;

set termout on

select  '*'||lpad(' ',level+3)||type||'
'||owner||'.'||name
from depends
connect by prior owner = referenced_owner
and prior name = referenced_name
and prior type = referenced_type
start with referenced_owner = upper('&1')
and referenced_name = upper('&2')
and owner is not null
/

good luck,

jack silvey
