[Quoted] [Quoted] Is it true that in general corporate enviornment, the use of Views is [Quoted] discouraged ? even frowned up ?
[Quoted] [Quoted] I was working with this "seasoned" developer on developing reports, I am new
to the Oracle enviornment
[Quoted] [Quoted] and she insisted that I should NOT use views if at all possible, preferablly
[Quoted] not at all.
[Quoted] [Quoted] [Quoted] [Quoted] [Quoted] "You should be able to get all the data you need with straight SQL...even if
it have to go for pages !"
[Quoted] [Quoted] [Quoted] [Quoted] [Quoted] [Quoted] "...you are creating yet another dependency...it's another object that has
to be maintained !......"
[Quoted] [Quoted] The thing was with tools like Crystal Reports, it does not handle manual SQL
very well (requires
[Quoted] a separate file to store the query)
[Quoted] Is this true ? Was she full of bs ?
thanks
