Adding More Procedure to Package

448221Apr 20 2006 — edited Feb 26 2008
I have a Java background but is new to PLSQL.

For an existing package, can we add more procedures/functions to it without touching the original package's source code? It seems to me that we simply need to recreate a new package from the original source if more procedures are needed.

In OO language like Java, we can add more classes to a package without touching existing code, this feature facilitates Information Hiding and greatly reduce the problem associated modifying existing source code. Does PLSQL support such a feature?
