Find out schema

Question

Hi,
I need to find out in DB Package where this Package is installed (in which schema). The problem is this DB Package can be installed in various schemas. This means that I can't use select user from dual or system environment SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV', 'OS_USER').
What I would need is something like $$PLSQL_UNIT
cheers,
Johannes

JohannesWell, select user from dual would not work unless it was the owner running the package, but you can certainly use sys_context, just not os_user since it is irrelevant anyway.

Package created.

  3     l_schema varchar2(2000);
  4  begin
  5     l_schema := sys_context('USERENV', 'CURRENT_SCHEMA');
  6     dbms_output.put_line('Current schema is: '||l_schema);
  7
  8     l_schema := sys_context('USERENV', 'SESSION_USER');
  9     dbms_output.put_line('Session user is: '||l_schema);
10  end;
11  end;
12  /
Package body created.

User created.

Grant succeeded.

Grant succeeded.

Connected.

Current schema is: OPS$ORACLE
Session user is: TESTNote that this assumes that the package is created as the default definers rights.
