Part III

Replication Management API Packages Reference

Part III includes reference information about the replication management API, including:

• The procedures and functions in each package

• The parameters for each packaged procedure or function

• Exceptions that each procedure or function can raise

  Note:

  Some of the PL/SQL procedures and functions described in the chapters in this part are overloaded. That is, two or more procedures or functions have the same name in a single package, but their formal parameters differ in number, order, or datatype family. When a procedure or function is overloaded, it is noted in the description. See the Oracle Database PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference for more information about overloading and for more information about PL/SQL in general.
