Show Trigger Snapshot

The Oracle Data Dictionary stores the DDL used to create a trigger in the all_triggers_view, along with all the other trigger parameters.

Selected

SQL Navigator extracts the DDL as stored in the all_triggers_view.

Any user comments stored in the DDL are retained when extracting the DDL.

Not Selected

SQL Navigator constructs the DDL from the object’s parameters, and any user comments will not be retained.

Separator Character

Select the character to be used as the separator in the DDL. If you extract DDL for several objects, the DDL for each object will be separated using the selected separator.

Note: The '/' character is used automatically when extracting DDL for objects without stored code.

Format Output (will not include Inline Advice)

Format the DDL according to Formatting Options.

Inline advice is never included even if Tools | Formatter Tools | Enable Inline Advice is selected.
