oracle.javatools.db.ora
Class OracleExternalTableProperties.LocationSpecifier

java.lang.Object
oracle.javatools.db.AbstractDBObject
oracle.javatools.db.AbstractChildDBObject
oracle.javatools.db.ora.OracleExternalTableProperties.LocationSpecifier

All Implemented Interfaces:

ChildDBObject, DBObject, Copyable, DynamicPropertySet

Enclosing class:

OracleExternalTableProperties

public static class OracleExternalTableProperties.LocationSpecifier

extends AbstractChildDBObject

The LOCATION clause lets you specify one or more external data sources. A LocationSpecifier object represents one entry in a LOCATION clause.

Usually the LocationSpecifier is a file, but it need not be. Oracle Database does not interpret this clause. It is up to the access driver to interpret this information in the context of the external data. You cannot use wildcards in the LocationSpecifier to specify multiple files.
