add unique constraint only if it not exists

sql_coderJun 17 2010 — edited Jun 17 2010
hello racle community,

I would like to create a unique constraint (at least over two columns) on several tables via a script. Is there any way to fire the ALTER TABLE statement only when a constraint over the same columns does not exists already ? Or do I have to query the USER_CONSTRAINTS table first ?
