Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: v$active_Session_history column question
I think a better designation would be null$ tables. Since null is an =
unknown value and you cannot legally deny a license or access=20
to the unknown (even in stupid-law-happy USA), no one could restrict =
us from using them.
Mogens - We have these objects called null$ that we use to examine th= e instance and database.
Lawyer - And what is null?
Mogens - Null is unknown
Lawyer - By you?
Mogens - Not just Lousiana, but all over the world.
Lawyer - No one knows?
Mogens - Depends on which Juan you are talking about.
Lawyer - Which one?
Mogens - No, Oracle Juan
Why do I see an adaptation on the Abbott & Costello "Who's On First?"= routine being performed at the DB Forum????
