Hi,

I'm using PL/SQL Developer 6 with an Oracle 8 database.

PL/SQL Developer provides functionality for exporting and importing tables. I'd like to know, how this export/import works (the mechanism behind). Instead of doing the import/export manually using PL/SQL Developer, I'd like to do it "semi-automatically" from a Java application.

I'm aware, that oracle provides the imp/exp executables and there is a dbms_datapump package (but nor for Oracle 8).

Regards
