Researching the server parameter _complete_view_merging I found your site that displayed "8.1.7 Initialization Parameters", when I selected the complex_view_merging parameter it displayed a box of information for various Oracle versions. I'm trying to understand the meaning of the information displayed and would appreciate any help.
For instance, the Oracle 9.2.0 version shows:
Oracle 9.2.0:
- Paramter Name:
- _complex_view_merging
- Description:
- enable complex view merging
- Type:
- BOOL
- Obsoleted:
- FALSE
- Can ALTER SESSION:
- TRUE
- Can ALTER SYSTEM:
- FALSE -
I'm ok, until I get to Obsoleted:. According to the 9.2 documentation (Oracle9i Database Migration Release 2 (9.2)) this parameter is obsolete in 9.2; however, the same information is displayed for the Oracle 8.0.6 version, and according to the same documentation above, it became obsolete with Oracle 8.1. What is the word "Obsoleted:" in the parameter discription trying to tell me? Does "Obsoleted: False" mean that it is still a valid parameter? If it is a valid parameter with 9.2 where can I find the default value of the parameter?
Again, any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.
Sandy
