Re: Oracle8.03/NT4.0: Multithread PL/SQL Programming

One way to emulate separate threads of execution is to use the DBMS_JOB package and the DBMS_PIPE package together. Using the JOB package allows you to execute separate PL/SQL procedures simultaneously and the PIPE package allows you to set up communication channels between them. This works well in 7.3.X so should work ok in 8.03 (assuming backward compatibility).
