Needs more info about Packages in general..
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I like this book but it could have been better if it dealt with PL/Vision alot less and about Oracle Package construction in general alot more. The book is more of a 30-70% split in favor of PL/Vision. It was very helpful, but it seemed like an ad for the writer's software at times.
Well written with good examples; NOT a reference work

Steven Feuerstein's first book, Oracle PL/SQL Programming, has become the classic reference to PL/SQL. This one looks thoroughly at one especially advanced and powerful part of the PL/SQL language -- the package but it will not become a classic reference, instead some people might think it was a marketing ploy :-), as it is structured around a set of packages called PL/Vision...But all in all, Steve presents a nice organized approach for an application (development) environment...so it will be a keeper
Clearly written with good examples; not a reference work

The book is structured around a set of packages called PL/Vision. Eighty percent of the book is devoted to describing how to use PL/Vision and what it can do. PL/Vision is a useful set of tools; the P package in particular will be useful to any developer, though most will have already written something similar (though maybe not so fancy) for themselves. P is a packaged version of the dbms_output routines, and allows formatted output, debug output and other similar facilities.However, the book is not really a reference for Oracle packages. Most of what you need as a reference can be found in Feuerstein's "Oracle PL/SQL Programming", which I recommend. This book is more to give you an idea of what you can do with packages. I found it interesting, but I rarely refer to it--the other Feuerstein book is so comprehensive it covers almost all my questions.
The best book on PL/SQL Packages there is

The author has followed a very clear and thorough line of thinking in preparing his packages. It would do any programmer well to follow his lead.
