DBMS_REPCAT.ALTER_PRIORITY_datatype

Synopsis

The ALTER_PRIORITY_datatype procedures let you alter the data value associated with a specific priority for a priority group. For example, in the priority group PG_MFG_STAT, the value associated with priority 1 could be changed from CONCEPT to PLANNED. The change takes effect immediately. The specifications differ for Oracle7 and Oracle8 as follows.

Oracle7 specification:

PROCEDURE DBMS_REPCAT.ALTER_PRIORITY_datatype
   (gname     IN VARCHAR2 := '',
    pgroup    IN VARCHAR2,
    old_value IN {CHAR|VARCHAR2|NUMBER|DATE|RAW},
    new_value IN {CHAR|VARCHAR2|NUMBER|DATE|RAW},
    sname     IN VARCHAR2 := '');

Oracle8 specification:

PROCEDURE DBMS_REPCAT.ALTER_PRIORITY_datatype
   (gname     IN VARCHAR2 := '',
    pgroup    IN VARCHAR2,
    old_value IN {CHAR|NCHAR|VARCHAR2|NUMBER|DATE|RAW},
    new_value IN {CHAR|NCHAR|VARCHAR2|NUMBER|DATE|RAW});

datatype, value, and old_value can be any of the types in the following table.
