CHAPTER 3 XML Database Repository > Version Control
Version Control
The DBMS_XDB_VERSION and DBMS_XDB PL/SQL packages provide a way to create and manage a Version Controlled Resource (VCR) in XML DB Repository.
When an XML DB Repository resource is turned into a VCR, a flag is set to mark it as a VCR and the current resource becomes the initial version.
To make an XML DB Repository resource versioned, run the following command (create_vcr.sql):
Listing 3-13 Creating a VCR from an XML DB Repository Resource
declare
v_resid DBMS_XDB_VERSION.RESID_TYPE;
begin
v_resid := dbms_xdb_version.makeversioned(‘/public/chp03/john_smith.xml’);
end;
/
Commit;
You have to commit to complete the preceding operation.
