Libraries
Go Up to Supported Objects
Libraries are an object type that represent a call to an operating system shared library. After the call is made, libraries can be used by SQL or PL/SQL to link to external procedures or functions. Libraries are only to be used on operating systems that support shared libraries and dynamic linking. Libraries serve as pointers or aliases to physical operating system shared library files and do not have existence as a physical object on their own, rather they rely on the physical existence of the files in the external operating system library to which they refer. To access the function or procedures stored in the library, you need execute privileges at the operating system level where the shared library resides.
