How do I get the definition of a view?
 
I used the following SQL but not getting all definition text 
- I know something needs to be done on the format of long type.
 
  1  select TEXT_LENGTH,TEXT
  2  from dba_views
  3  where OWNER = 'TSDBA'
  4* and VIEW_NAME  = 'FL_EXPORT_DB_VIEW'
SQL> /
 
TEXT_LENGTH
-----------
TEXT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        872
SELECT RS_SESSION.REGION_ID,
RS_SESSION.SESSION_DATE,
        RS_ROUTE.ROUTE_ID AS ROUT
 

SQL>
 
Thanks,
