Oracle Distinct Code Dependency Tree

This script displays a distinct hierarchical tree of dependencies for a specified database object. It uses a hierarchical query (CONNECT BY) on the ALL_DEPENDENCIES view to trace object relationships recursively while excluding system objects, helping visualize dependency chains between database objects.
