QUESTION POSED ON: 29 November 2005
I'm new in the Oracle environment and I have a question. How can I export from the command line all triggers, procedures, functions, etc. from an Oracle database? Thanks for your help.

It depends on what you wish to do with them; if it is simply to move from one Oracle database to another, then the export command using the rows=n and indexes=n options would probably get you close. There are also tools available to mine the export file for the code.

One thing to be aware of: the Oracle-provided packages and procedures are usually "wrapped," which means encrypted.

For just the SQL to build the objects, look at the package dbms_metadata.
