Hello,

I would like to know, how secure Oracle is against modifications in names of system tables or system table columns from version to version.

Do you think, that a select statement like

"SELECT COL.COLUMN_NAME FROM USER_CONS_COLUMNS COL, USER_CONSTRAINTS CON WHERE CON.TABLE_NAME = {0} AND COL.CONSTRAINT_NAME = CON.CONSTRAINT_NAME AND CON.CONSTRAINT_TYPE='P'" will work in a version Oracle 15 too?

Was is possible to execute the upper statement in Oracle 5?

Thank you,
