REMOTE_DEPENDENCIES_MODE

Property Description
Parameter type String
Syntax REMOTE_DEPENDENCIES_MODE = { TIMESTAMP | SIGNATURE }
Default value TIMESTAMP
Modifiable ALTER SESSION, ALTER SYSTEM

REMOTE_DEPENDENCIES_MODE specifies how Oracle should handle dependencies upon remote PL/SQL stored procedures.

Values:

  • TIMESTAMP

    The client running the procedure compares the timestamp recorded on the server-side procedure with the current timestamp of the local procedure and executes the procedure only if the timestamps match.

  • SIGNATURE

    Oracle allows the procedure to execute as long as the signatures are considered safe. This setting allows client PL/SQL applications to be run without recompilation.
