There was an article with enough code to set up a first working example in a very recent Oracle Magazine - it is on line, but I don't recall the URL. When I read it it looked complete.

One little detail you might want to watch out for when experimenting. If you add
Label Security to a database, it does
create a few extra database-level triggers, which fire on things like create/drop table. You might want to build a separate database for testing it on.
