Re-creating the Package Header Without Deleting the Package Body

The package body definition is not deleted when the package header is re-created.

Examples

-- Create a package header and body.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE pkg_1 AS
var1 int;
var2 int;
PROCEDURE proc1;
END pkg_1;
/
CREATE PACKAGE

CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY pkg_1 AS
PROCEDURE proc1 AS
BEGIN
var1 := var1 + var2;
END;
END pkg_1;
/
CREATE PACKAGE BODY

-- Re-create the package header.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE pkg_1 AS
var1 int;
var2 int;
var3 int;
PROCEDURE proc1;
END pkg_1;
/
CREATE PACKAGE

-- Query the status and verify that the package body definition is not deleted.
SELECT * FROM gs_package WHERE pkgname='pkg_1';
