Hi,


I am a student developing an interface in pl/sql, using the new
object-relational features

I cannot declare private member functions/procedures. When i specify a
member which is not in the declaration-part of the object type,
i get an compiler-error,
"this function is not declared in the object-type specification."

This is a correct message, because that is what i want.

The interface is meant to hide many implementation details from the
end-user, so i'd like to offer a limited set of functions,
And solve the administration-problems internally.

Producing a nice interface is *NOT* possible with all this
administrative sh*t beeing visible from outside

the documentation CD tells me declaring private members is possible, but
does *NOT* provide an example or syntactic guidelines

Anybody with suggestions or similar experiences (so we can howl some
about louzy implementations by Oracle)

Is it better to wait for a new release (currentlly we have 8.0.3, when
is a new release coming actually)

Tnx

It was a documentation bug
