The best Oracle News for FY2026

Oracle Database 26ai will be available on generic Linux platforms in January and soon on AIX and Windows

Purpose Support package for conditional execution when executing JVM scripts.

Examining undocumented packages is always tricky but they often lead to a better understanding of how things work and where to look when triaging things that don't. This package provides many indications that it has been deprecated for decades.

ABORT_MESSAGE

The code says "DBMS_OUPUT a highlighted message" but the description seems misleading

It would be easy enough to write your own with the input as an array indexed by binary integer to handle n messages initjvmaux.abort_message( msg1 IN VARCHAR2, msg2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL);

exec initjvmaux.abort_message('Why?', 'Why Not?');

      .
