Hi,

I have two databases where I have tables that I,trough triggers, want to update each other. customers@dB1 should update customers@dB2 AND vise verca. How do I avoid an infinite loop :-)? I could always add a field to the tables that stores the source of the update but is there a better way??

Hi,

You can avoid an infinite loop by using the DBMS_REPUTIL.FROM_REMOTE function. look at this example:

IF dbms_reputil.from_remote is false THEN
-- put your orginal trigger code here...
END IF;

Hope it helps.

Best regards
Frank
