Hi,

I am trying to Spool a Package Body into a file using sqlplus. I tried 2 days:

WAY1
SET LINESIZE 32000;
SET PAGESIZE 0;
SET TRIMSPOOL ON;
SET ECHO OFF;
SET TERM OFF;
SET FEEDBACK OFF;

SPOOL c:\temp\PKG_PP_Body_BKP_08Jan13.TXT;
select text from all_source where owner = 'owner' and name = 'SPI_xxxx_PCK' and TYPE = 'PACKAGE BODY' order by line;
SPOOL OFF;
SET ECHO ON;
SET FEEDBACK ON

WAY2
.....
SELECT dbms_metadata.get_ddl( 'PACKAGE', 'SPI_xxxx_PCK', 'owner') FROM dual;
......

In Way1, I got different DDL or partial DDL. In Way2, I got only first 2 lines of Package body. I am running this command from Schema user only. Anyone knows how to achive this?

I guess, SET LONG will solve your problem.

WAY1: Different from what? Just missing CREATE (OR REPLACE) keywords? Or is the database code wrapped? Or ...?

WAY2: set long 4000

WAY3: The first way points to the fact that there is another code repository. Keep it as the main one. Do not use database as your content version system (CVS) - it is not supposed to act so. Then, there will be no need to extract code from it anymore.

The best way is to use dbms_metadata.get_ddl function.

Thanks to everyone. Your suggestions triggers me to get some solution. Finally I resolved my issue as follows:

SET HEAD OFF
SET ECHO OFF
SET FEED OFF
SET TERM OFF
SET LINE 1500
SET NEWPAGE NONE
set pagesize 0
SPOOL C:\temp\SPI_xxx_PSPEC.SQL
PROMPT CREATE OR REPLACE
select trim(text) from user_source
where name='SPI_xxx_PCK' AND type='PACKAGE';
SPOOL OFF
