Subj:   Re: Check for Broken Views
 
From:   Victor Sokovin



  Does anyone know of a way to check a database for Broken Views?  


You could try SHOW VIEW <view_name> or HELP VIEW <view_name>.

As far as I know there is no reliable information on the view status readily available in the DBC. View status is a dynamic characteristic, it can change any second, and it would be a significant overhead for the database to revalidate views on the fly when something changes in the database. So, it is "on request" kind of thing. SHOW/HELP or any SQL statement using the view would trigger the validation.


Regards,

Victor
