Oracle Force Column Order Setting
Published 15 January 2025
Description
If deployment requires additional columns to be inserted into the middle of a table, this option forces a rebuild of the table so that column order is preserved following deployment.
The table is rebuilt in four steps:
- A new table is created.
- Data from the original table is copied into the new table.
- The original table is dropped.
- The new table is renamed as the original table.
