Hi Experts,

I'm admin for an application which connects to Oracle Database SE 12.x.

When ever I make a change in a table X that internally fires a trigger Y, I'm seeing DBA_Objects getting updated for the trigger and the table name with Last_DDL_Time as current time.

Is firing of a DB trigger Y considered as a DDL and is it because the trigger is for Table X that both these objects show up in DBA_Objects with Last DDL_Time as current time?

Thanks in advance for the support on this.

Regards
Ranjith

Do you mean when you modify a row in the table and the trigger is a DML trigger or when you alter the table and the trigger is a DDL one?

I'm not seeing the behavior in 12.2.0.1.0. I think your trigger is doing something more than DML.

DEV1> CREATE TABLE MYTABLEA (ID NUMBER, SOMEDATA VARCHAR2(80));

Table created.

DEV1> CREATE TABLE MYTABLEB (ID NUMBER, SOMEDATA VARCHAR2(80));

Table created.

DEV1>
DEV1> CREATE TRIGGER MYTABLEA_TRIG BEFORE INSERT ON MYTABLEA FOR EACH ROW
  2  BEGIN
  3     INSERT INTO MYTABLEB VALUES (:NEW.ID, :NEW.SOMEDATA);
  4  END;
  5  /

Trigger created.

DEV1>
DEV1> SELECT OBJECT_NAME, LAST_DDL_TIME FROM USER_OBJECTS WHERE OBJECT_NAME LIKE 'MYTABLE%' AND OBJECT_TYPE = 'TABLE';

OBJECT_NAME                    LAST_DDL_TIME
------------------------------ -------------------
MYTABLEA                       2019-12-09 09:24:20
MYTABLEB                       2019-12-09 09:24:20

2 rows selected.

DEV1>
DEV1> INSERT INTO MYTABLEA VALUES (0, '0');

1 row created.

DEV1> COMMIT;

Commit complete.

DEV1> EXEC DBMS_LOCK.SLEEP(5);

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

DEV1>
DEV1> SELECT OBJECT_NAME, LAST_DDL_TIME FROM USER_OBJECTS WHERE OBJECT_NAME LIKE 'MYTABLE%' AND OBJECT_TYPE = 'TABLE';

OBJECT_NAME                    LAST_DDL_TIME
------------------------------ -------------------
MYTABLEA                       2019-12-09 09:24:20
MYTABLEB                       2019-12-09 09:24:20

2 rows selected.
