Object-Referencing Strategies

Hello Oracle-folks.

Anybody have strategies for using Object-Referencing in Application-Development using SQLFORMS 3.0.

We have made a datadictionary, so it will be easy to update or distribute databases, but how to make it easy to maintain applications with many forms, facilities and relations.

Object-Referencing is a way (as far as I can see) to ensure that changes will be reflected in the whole system, and as so just what I want.

But the manual SQLFORMS (Designers Ref.) is very limited with information around the use.

So I want to know:

1. When is it a good idea ?. Advantages.
   • library forms???
   • for blocks
   • for fields
   • for triggers, procedures.
2. Drawbacks.
3. Experiences.
