The Stored Program Editor—which you use to edit PL/SQL and other program code—includes a Code Explorer tool that helps make your work with packages, procedures, and functions more efficient and error-free.

The Code Explorer is based on an advanced parsing technique that understands PL/SQL syntax. It displays detailed information about a package’s components, such as variables and parameters, their types and structure.

Code Explorer combines information from the specification and body, highlights syntax, and distinguishes non-published procedures and functions with a different icon.
