Temporary tables
Global temporary tables are distinct within SQL sessions.
The basic syntax is:
CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE table_name ( …);
For example:
CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE supplier
( supplier_id numeric(10) not null,
supplier_name varchar2(50) not null,
contact_name varchar2(50)
)
This would create a global temporary table called supplier .
Local Temporary tables
Local temporary tables are distinct within modules and embedded SQL programs within SQL sessions.
The basic syntax is:
DECLARE LOCAL TEMPORARY TABLE table_name ( …);
