This part describes data dictionary tables and views. These tables and views are called static, because they change only when a change is made to the data dictionary (for example, when a new table is created or when a user is granted new privileges). This part contains the following chapters:
Chapter 2, "Static Data Dictionary Views: ALL_ALL_TABLES to ALL_MVIEWS"
Chapter 3, "Static Data Dictionary Views: ALL_NESTED_TABLE_COLS to DATABASE_PROPERTIES"
Chapter 4, "Static Data Dictionary Views: DBA_2PC_NEIGHBORS to DBA_MVIEWS"
Chapter 5, "Static Data Dictionary Views: DBA_NESTED_TABLE_COLS to USER_XML_VIEWS"
Note:
Oracle also maintains tables that monitor ongoing database activity. These dynamic performance tables are described in Part III, "Dynamic Performance Views".
