Re: How to get a list of procedures/functions in a package?

In 7.2 and up there are views

all_arguments
user_arguments

A query such as:

select distinct package_name, object_name   from user_arguments
 where package_name = 'Whatever'

Will generate such a list. In earlier releases, you can look at the sys owned table argument$ to get the same info but you'll have to do the joins yourself to resolve the package names and datatypes.
