RE: streams comments

The problem with all these "New and Improved" things (when they finally work the bugs out ... IF they finally work the bugs out) is that there appears to be a move away from SQL-ish syntax toward the calling of a vast number of procedures with a whopping array of possible arguments. I think, with Oracle's current path of development we will, in the future, instead of "analyze table ...." have "exec DBMS_STATS.ONE_OF_273_POSSIBLE_CALLS(arg1,

arg2, arg3, arg4, arg5, arg6, arg7, arg8, arg9, arg10, arg11, arg12, arg13,
arg14, arg15, arg16, arg17, arg18, arg19, arg20, arg21, arg22, arg23, arg24,
arg25, arg26, arg27, arg28, arg29, arg30, arg31, arg32, arg33, arg34, arg35,
arg36, arg37, arg38, arg39, arg40, arg41, arg42, arg43, arg44, arg45, arg46,
arg47, arg48, arg49, arg50, arg51, arg52, arg53, arg54, arg55, arg56, arg57,
arg58, arg59, arg60, arg61, arg62, arg63, arg64, arg65, arg66, arg67, arg68,
arg69, arg70, arg71, arg72, arg73, arg74, arg75, arg76, arg77, arg78, arg79,
arg80, arg81, arg82, arg83, arg84, arg85, arg86, arg87, arg88, arg89, arg90,
arg91, arg92, arg93, arg94, arg95, arg96, arg97, arg98, arg99, arg100)".

Do you get the impression that Oracle is just too damn lazy to update their syntax parser?
