Abstract

The generation of system configuration files and other documents directly from a database has proven to be a very powerful technique. However, there were some limitations to this approach. With the introduction of Oracle 8i, and more specifically, the addition of support for XML, we have been able to eliminate many of these limitations and take the file generation and maintenance to a new level.
