How often did I type a query like this to list the invalid objects in a database?<\/p>\n

select count(*)\n  from dba_objects\n where status  'VALID';\n    -- and user in\/not in\n<\/pre>\n
Today I learned another way to do the same.<\/p>\n
\"Read<\/p>\n
There is a view called dba_invalid_objects. Surprisingly the view is not listed in the official 12c database reference<\/a>. It is however mentioned in the upgrade guide<\/a>.
\nLet’s do some tests. Currently I do not have any invalid objects:<\/p>\n
SQL> select count(*) from dba_objects where status  'VALID';\n\n  COUNT(*)\n----------\n\t 0\n\nSQL> select count(*) from dba_invalid_objects;\n\n  COUNT(*)\n----------\n\t 0\n\nSQL> \n<\/pre>\n
I’ll create an invalid procedure:<\/p>\n
SQL> create procedure a ( a in number ) as a int; begin 1=1; end;\n2 \/<\/pre>\n
Warning: Procedure created with compilation errors.<\/p>\n
Is it listed in dba_invalid_objects?<\/p>\n
SQL> select OBJECT_NAME from dba_invalid_objects; \nOBJECT_NAME -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A<\/pre>\n
Yes. Indeed this is a just a short cut to select from dba_objects:<\/p>\n
SQL> r\n  1* select TEXT from dba_views where view_name = 'DBA_INVALID_OBJECTS'\n\nTEXT\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nselect \"OWNER\",\"OBJECT_NAME\",\"SUBOBJECT_NAME\",\"OBJECT_ID\",\"DATA_OBJECT_ID\",\"OBJE\nCT_TYPE\",\"CREATED\",\"LAST_DDL_TIME\",\"TIMESTAMP\",\"STATUS\",\"TEMPORARY\",\"GENERATED\",\n\"SECONDARY\",\"NAMESPACE\",\"EDITION_NAME\",\"SHARING\",\"EDITIONABLE\",\"ORACLE_MAINTAINE\nD\" from DBA_OBJECTS\nwhere STATUS = 'INVALID' and\n  (OBJECT_TYPE != 'TYPE' or (OBJECT_TYPE='TYPE' and SUBOBJECT_NAME is null))\n<\/pre>\n
Anyway, good to know.<\/p>\n
Seems this view was introduced with Oracle 11gR1<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
