Question: I know that I can add a comment to a
table, but I want to add a column to a view and a materialized view.
Does Oracle allows the COMMENT ON syntax with views?
Answer: Yes, Oracle treats table and view
alike with the COMMENT ON clause, and you can add a comment to a
materialized view with the COMMENT ON MATERIALIZED VIEW clause.
