Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: How to export sequences with exp ?
To my knowledge, you can only choose to export an entire schema
in order to get at objects other than tables and indexes
(sequences, stored programs, views, etc.).
Thus an export with ROWS=N will give you all the structures without storing actual data. Then an import with SHOW=Y will list all these structures, albeit in a form that is not exactly DDL. You can massage that output to strip double quotes and join broken words to create DDL. I wrote a C program that was pretty bad that did exactly this to some degree, but the true solution would involve a proper DDL parser, (not for me today thanks).
Why doesn't Oracle Corp. realize the massive potential of a *good* import/export utility and produce one? e.g. Resizing tables, projecting storage, showing before hand dependancy trees, etc.

Hi,
maybe a
select 'CREATE SEQUENCE ' || SEQUENCE_NAME || ' START WITH ' || LAST_NUMBER
from user_sequences;
as a sql-Skript could be your way.
