Referencing Oracle user defined types over DBLINK?

Question

I\'m working in two different Oracle schemas on two different instances of Oracle. I\'ve defined several types and type collections to transfer data between these schemas.

Answer 1

I think the underlying issue is that Oracle doesn't know how to automatically serialize/deserialize your custom type over the wire, so to speak.

Your best bet is probably to pass an XML (or other) representation over the link.
