Table Qualifier

A table qualifier affects the data in a table to which a user has access. You can use table qualifiers to manage data access in databases that support them, such as Oracle and IBM DB2. You can also use table qualifiers to fully qualify the table names of tables that have a different creator.

OracleAS TopLink enables you to add a table qualifier to all table references in a given session. Use the setTableQualifier() method on your session login object to prepend a string to all tables accessed by the session.

Example 5-16 Adding a Table Qualifier

session.getLogin().setTableQualifier([QUALIFIER_STRING])
