RE: How to find the last execution time of a Procedure.

Thanks for input Raj.

I was also thinking on the same lines (Querying v$views periodically and store it in some metadata table) if there is no easier way to figure out from DBA_ views.

As far as changing the production code, as you know, It has to go thru the dev/test databases first and then go thru the release process to implement into the production. It is painful process.

I will use x$kglob instead of changing production code and all that release stuff. Thanks for your help, Raj.

not easily, but you could probably scan through x$kglob (frequently) and see if the name exists ... if it is, it means it was loaded for execution.

Another solution might be to modify old code and have them add a row in a separate table using autonomous transaction to indicate they got executed. Then wait for couple of months and it will give you some good idea.

Of course people who know more than I do will have better solutions. Raj

Hi All,

Is there anyway to find out from data dictionary views when was a database procedure/function last executed. Would like know the solution for 8i and 9i databases. We have some older code in the databases and do not know if any application is using it or not.

I appreciate your help.

Thanks & Best Regards,
Prasad
