How to export Oracle Virtual Private Database (a.k.a.: VPD, or "Row Level Security") policy creation statements

Hey crew,

Long time no post.

Have you ever had to drop an Oracle VPD policy from a table, and then realized that it isn't very easy to put it back?

Hopefully this little snippet will help with backing up the VPD policy definition so that you can easily add it back later.

I hope this is helpful:

-- Build the ADD policy statement from the dictionary
SELECT 'BEGIN
   DBMS_RLS.add_policy (object_schema         => ' || DBMS_ASSERT.enquote_literal (str => object_owner) || '
                      , object_name           => ' || DBMS_ASSERT.enquote_literal (str => object_name) || '
                      , policy_name           => ' || DBMS_ASSERT.enquote_literal (str => policy_name) || '
                      , function_schema       => ' || DBMS_ASSERT.enquote_literal (str => pf_owner) || '

Take care!
