Hi All,

Our Application design group is designing an application which looks in to data ditionary tables for roles granted to the user who logs in and decide which web pages he can view.

The only problem we foresee is the if oracle changes the data dictionary then the application too needs change.

Has anyone does this before?
Any hidden problems seen due to this?

We have suggested them to create another table to do this instead of the oracle table.
