Actually Oracle does have a reasonable Enterprise Data Dictionary inside its
[Quoted] product Designer. In one of its previous incarnations it was even called
CASE*Dictionary. And no, it has nothing to do with the dictionary inside the
Oracle database itself. And yes, unfortunately Oracle seems to have declarec
it "end-of-life", while at the same time being unable to produce an
analogous product to go with its JDeveloper tool.
[Quoted] [Quoted] By the way, what is left of those other Enterprise Dictionaries? The IBM-one [Quoted] was called AD/Cycle, IIRC, and there was also an effort by Microsoft, Platinum and Rational. That was all in the mid nineties.
