Product Description

Product Description
The fourth edition of this popular pocket guide provides quick-reference information that will help you use Oracle's PL/SQL language, including the newest Oracle Database 11g features. It's a companion to Steven Feuerstein and Bill Pribyl's bestselling Oracle PL/SQL Programming. This concise guide boils down the most vital PL/SQL information into an accessible summary of: fundamental language elements (e.g., block structure, datatypes, declarations); statements for program control, cursor management, and exception handling; records, procedures, functions, triggers, and packages; calling PL/SQL functions in SQL; and, compilation options, object-oriented features, collections, and Java integration.The new edition describes such Oracle Database 11g elements as PL/SQL's function result cache, compound triggers, the Continue statement, the Simple_Integer datatype, and improvements to native compilation, regular expressions, and compiler optimization (including intra-unit inlining). In addition, this book now includes substantial new sections on Oracle's built-in functions and packages. When you need answers quickly, the "Oracle PL/SQL Language Pocket Reference" will save you hours of frustration.

From the Publisher
The new edition of this must-have pocket guide boils down the most vital information from Oracle PL/SQL Programming, the bestseller that many consider "the Bible" for PL/SQL development. This concise booklet summarizes features available in Oracle's powerful new product-- Oracle9i-- and provides essential information on PL/SQL block structure, fundamental language elements, control statements, and use of procedures, functions, packages, triggers, Oracle objects, external procedures, and methods of calling Java classes from PL/SQL. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Probably All You'll Need, 17 Jun 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Oracle PL/SQL Language Pocket Reference: A guide to Oracle's PL/SQL language fundamentals (Pocket Reference (O'Reilly)) (Paperback)
If you're working with Oracle, you will hopefully already have some real code to look at and a database to experiment with.

In that case, I think this book will be the only printed backup to the language you will need.

By the way, it's also ideal if you're planning to take the Oracle Certification Exam.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent little reference book, 25 Feb 2005
By N. Chivers - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Oracle PL/SQL Language Pocket Reference: A guide to Oracle's PL/SQL language fundamentals (Pocket Reference (O'Reilly)) (Paperback)
Why bother with hundreds of pages of text when all the information you'll need on the subject of PL/SQL can be found in a book that will fit in your back pocket? If you already know a bit about Oracle and programming this excellent little reference is all you will need to get you coding in PL/SQL.

I never keep it more than an arms length away from me at work.

By A Customer
This review is from: Oracle PL/SQL Language Pocket Reference (A guide to language fundamentals) (Paperback)
If you've got the author's "PL/SQL Programming" book, get this one too - a bargain, and much easier to carry around than the other one!
