The Packages Folder

When you click the Packages folder tab, the Packages folder opens and the Package object list appears. The Package object list contains information about stored procedures, functions, and packages.

A procedure or function is a set of SQL or PL/SQL statements that perform a specific task. A package is a group of related functions, procedures, cursors, and variables. For information about stored procedures, functions, and packages, see the Oracle7 Server Concepts and the Oracle7 Server Application Developer's Guide. For information on PL/SQL, see the PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference.

The following figure illustrates the Packages object list.
