Expand your Binds …with PeopleCode

PeopleCode has two little gem functions that expand binds: ExpandBindVar and ExpandSqlBinds.

At first glance, these two functions look similar.  A cursory glance at PeopleBooks show that they both expand binds in strings.  Even the parameter list is the same (not).   But how they are used is two very different situations and are not interchangeable.

PeopleTools Object Owner ID

Most PeopleTools objects allow a developer to classify and organize the object by the Owner ID field on the Object’s Properties page. This value doesn’t affect the object and is more Information Only. However, it does help during development and upgrades by providing the developer an idea of where this object is used.
