Description

An OraMetaData object is a collection of OraMDAttribute objects that represent the description information about a particular schema object in the database. For example, see attributes for a OraMetaData object of type table (ORAMD_TABLE).

Remarks

The OraMetaData object can be visualized as a table with three columns:

· Metadata Attribute Name

· Metadata Attribute Value

· Flag specifying whether the Value is another OraMetaData Object

The OraMDAttribute objects contained in the OraMetaData object can be accessed by subscripting using ordinal integers or by using the name of the property. Referencing a subscript that is not in the collection (0 to Count-1) results in the return of a NULL OraMDAttribute object.
