Startup Programs

Startup programs are programs that you write and that Oracle OLAP checks for by name when an AW ATTACH statement executes. Startup programs do not exist within an analytic workspace unless you define and write them. In a startup program you can execute any OLAP DML statements, or run any of your own programs. For example, a startup program might set options to values appropriate to your application.

The types of startup programs that are recognized by Oracle OLAP are discussed in this topic. The order in which these programs are executed is outlined in "Programs Executed When Attaching Analytic Workspaces".

There are two major categories of startup programs:

• Startup programs that are defined within the same analytic workspace for which an AW ATTACH statement triggers their execution. Within this category of startup programs are:

  • Permission Programs

  • AUTOGO Programs and ONATTACH Programs

• A program named TRIGGER_AW that is defined in an analytic workspace and that executes when an AW ATTACH statement is issued for any other analytic workspace. See TBD for more information.
