Our application has both tables that we have created and tables from more than one external application, such a Slide. So how to keep table names from colliding? One way of course is to create a different database per section of one's application. Another is for each creator of tables to assume that they will exist in a federated system and thus they should take the effort as a good citizen of that federation to make sure their table names are unique - one way to do this is with a "namespace" suffix.
Some in our group believed that they were the center of the universe a could pick whatever table names they wished. Those with more experience with integrating multiple separate software parts into a whole knew that such belief were folly and lead to madness.

Not that I know of. That particular issue was resolved by creating the tables with a non-system user. In Oracle, that puts the tables in the default schema of the user (versus the System schema).
Is this a feature that you need?

A little while ago someone was suggesting that they were working on adding a feature that would allow one to specify a database table prefix (to be used by all Slide tables) which would be used both by the initialization sql and the java code.
Is that work happening?
Thanks.
