Oracle Equivalent of User-Defined Datatypes?

I am porting a SQL-Server based data model to Oracle 8.x. The data model makes extensive use of user-defined datatypes. For example:

ENUMERATOR (tinyint = 1 byte unsigned integer)

which also has a default value bound to it (default = 0) and a rule (must be
>= 0). Wherever this datatype is used in the model, it will behave the same
way.

Is there an equivalent to this concept in Oracle 8.x? Received on Mon Jul 27 1998 - 11:20:26 CDT
