Surprisingly, the answer is yes. Have you tried it?

I don't have any of that, but I was just wondering if you knew that you can
use DBMS_OUTPUT in a trigger? Which obviously can be helpful when debugging
a trigger.

As for best practices, I would look at Steve Feuerstein's books. Or his best practices presentation, etc can be found at http://www.quest-pipelines.com/.

Hi,

                 Can anyone direct me to any documentation on the

internals of Oracle
triggers or just articles on Oracle triggers specifically (best practices etc.). I am looking for something advanced and releated to triggers only -
Not general PL/SQL writing and debugging. I believe that the overall consensus has been to use packages and procedures for triggers. Assume that
PL/SQL is known, just need to know the best waty to *implement*.

                 Spent a day manually debugging a seven page trigger (ugh

- not
mine!). I want to re-write in the best method possible (one where I can actually step through the trigger etc to dubug).

                 Any direction would be helpful.  Escpecially any advanced

guidance
that I can pass onto the developers.

Thanks,

                 Hannah
