You will get an event for each commit that modifies one of the tables you're using in your query (in your code sample only one table called "EXAMPLE"). Think of it as "Table Change Notification" TCN. In other words you may get a lot of false positives because you're only interested in one row but you'll be notified if other rows are changed. It's then up to you to filter the events. This is why this feature should only be used for read mostly tables.

In 11gR2, Oracle improved this notification mechanism to allow a finer notification called "Query Change Notification". This time you will only be notified by changes that affect your query results. There is an option that needs to be turned on to enable QCN instead of TCN. Note that the server may not always be able to enable QCN. If the query is too complex it will fall back to TCN.
