In Oracle SQLPlus, after compiling a stored procedure that has errors, which statement correctly describes how to view those compilation errors?

Introduction / Context:When compiling PL/SQL objects (procedures, functions, packages) in SQLPlus, syntax or semantic errors are stored in the user_errors/dba_errors views. Developers must explicitly request a listing to diagnose issues.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• The environment is SQLPlus (or tools that mimic its commands).
• A stored procedure was compiled and has errors.
• We want the correct way to display those errors.

Concept / Approach:SQLPlus provides the command SHOW ERRORS, which displays the latest compilation errors for the most recently created or altered PL/SQL object, including line/position references relative to the database-stored source.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:Using SELECT * FROM USER_ERRORS WHERE NAME = 'PROC_NAME' ORDER BY SEQUENCE; confirms the same details that SHOW ERRORS surfaces.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:Automatic display (option b) is not the SQLPlus default; you must request errors. Line numbers matching editor (option a) often differ due to stored text formatting. 'NO ERRORS.' (option d) is not the normal success message; SQLPlus typically shows 'Procedure created.' when compilation succeeds.

Common Pitfalls:Confusing client editor line numbers with database-stored line numbers; forgetting to use SHOW ERRORS after CREATE OR REPLACE.

Final Answer:To see the errors, enter SHOW ERRORS in SQLPlus.
