please, can send link?
My badly interpreted PL/SQL example was on the same page you point to
below:
so some better documentation
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e25519/packages.htm#LNPLS99926
There is a private 'number_hired' which given its name I thought was
counting the number of employee, but it was just counting the number of
"hire_employee" calls in the current session... Not very interesting.
I am sure, so package variables are not shared between sessions/backends
Indeed, I misinterpreted the Oracle documentation example.
[ grantable function example to access a private session variable... ]
I am sorry, it is not secure. Theoretically it can work if you have
granted order of function calls, but if not?
I'm not sure I understand.
If you do not grant/revoke permissions as you want on the functions, then
it can be invoked by anybody.
My point is that it is *possible* to tune permissions so as to control
exactly who may access a private session variable.
That is exactly the same with a grantable session variable if you do not
have done the necessary grant/revoke, there is no difference?
