Title: RE: Lengthy Table and/or column names

A team of developers are already complaining of oracle's 30 character limit on names for their pl/sql code.
I left the room for to have a good laugh ... it isn;t polite to laugh in front of someone ... right?

Subject: Lengthy Table and/or column names


Are there any issues to consider when naming tables and/or columns (length of column name)? I know the max length is 30 but some of the table names that my client wants to add (against my recommendation) look like Cobol and are pushing 30 characters.

Just wanted to know if there are any potential performance issues or anything else I should warn them about.
Thank in advance!
