I'm not a 100% sure but it seems to me that when you use "CREATE OR REPLACE AND COMPILE JAVA SOURCE...." the sourcecode is stored in DBA_SOURCE and when you use loadjava is isn't. Another interesting thing is that the objects that are "CREATED" rather than loadjava'd seem to be automatically NCOMP'd (check DBA_JAVA_NCOMPS) Ian For the latest data on the economy and society consult National Statistics at http://www.statistics.gov.uk ********************************************************************** Please Note: Incoming and outgoing email messages are routinely monitored for compliance with our policy on the use of electronic communications ********************************************************************** Legal Disclaimer : Any views expressed by the sender of this message are not necessarily those of the Office for National Statistics ********************************************************************** ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
