DBE_PLDEVELOPER.gs_source

Records information about PL/SQL objects (stored procedures, functions, packages, and package bodies), as described in Table 1.

  • The gs_source table records only user-defined original object statements. Even if a user uses ALTER to change the created schema or name, the information in the gs_source table does not change. If the user changes the schema or name of an object, after the user deletes the object, the object is deleted from the gs_source table.
  • The owner in the gs_source table is the user who creates the table, not the user specified when the user creates the stored procedure or package.
  • After the GUC parameter behavior_compat_options="skip_insert_gs_source" is set, information about PL/SQL objects (stored procedures, functions, packages, and package bodies) is not recorded in the gs_source table.
  • The permissions of gs_source are the same as those of system catalogs in pg_catalog. System administrators and common users cannot perform DROP, ALTER, DELETE, UPDATE, and INSERT operations, but can perform the SELECT operation. The GUC parameter allow_system_table_mods is used to control the permissions of gs_source, and the default value is off. After modifying this parameter, you need to restart the database for the modification to take effect.
  • By default, row-level security is not configured for the gs_source table in the database. If you need to use the database isolation feature, use the following statement to add row-level security: 
    ALTER TABLE dbe_pldeveloper.gs_source ENABLE ROW LEVEL SECURITY;
CREATE ROW LEVEL SECURITY POLICY all_data_rls ON dbe_pldeveloper.gs_source USING(owner = (SELECT oid FROM gs_roles WHERE rolname=current_user));
