Problem description: | |
DBMS_UTIILITY.COMMA_TO_TABLE function takes a delimited list of identifiers as a parameter to the function. Valid identifiers are strings that begin with the following characters: a-z or A-Z Without this fix, the function will incorrectly allow invalid identifiers like: 10 _abc 5abc This APAR will properly cause a failure in the form of SQL0171N if invalid identifiers are input to the function. | |
