One of the most popular features in the
DDL Wizard is
its ability to generate an HTML documentation tree from the
DDL in an Oracle database.
With the DDL Wizard, generating HTML which documents the structure of an Oracle
database is a push button operation
that takes a matter of minutes. Each element of the schema is presented on its
own page and contains
links to pages containing associated or dependent DDL objects. For example,
a HTML page containing
the DDL for a table would also contain links to the pages with that tables index and
foreign key constraint DDL. In addition, any grants and synonyms allocated to the table would also
be on view.
An HTML tree of the schema DDL is an intuitive and effective way to document
your database. Place the
documentation tree on
your organizations intranet and it can be accessed by any member of your team
with a web browser.
An HTML documentation tree of a sample database can be seen
here. You
can customize the look and feel of the HTML documentation pages if you wish. Here is a sample of a
custom page and
here is how it is done.
The DDL Wizard DDL2HTML generator is easy to use. This
online tutorial will tell you
everything you need to know.
