在建立表時如果使用了Oralce的某些保留字，將會收到系統提示的“無效名”等錯誤，那麼都有哪些保留字需要回避呢？
這個問題完全可以使用Oralce自帶的V$RESERVED_WORDS檢視來回答，不同的版本中這個中記錄的內容是有差別的，以實際環境查詢內容為準。

簡單演示一下使用保留字建立表時報錯的現象。當看到有類似“invalid ... name”等錯誤時，就要提高警惕了，不是你敲錯了字母就是用到了某些被禁止使用的保留字。

1.保留字作為列名時
例如，我們打算使用“number”這個名字作為表的一個列名，嘗試建立這個表是就會收到報錯
sec@ora10g> create table t (number int);
create table t (number int)
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00904: : invalid identifier

2.保留字作為表名時
使用“number”作為表名也是一樣會報錯
sys@ora10g> create table number ( x int);
create table number ( x int)
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00903: invalid table name

3.查詢一下還有哪些保留字不可以作為識別符號（以Oracle 10gR2環境為例）
如果V$RESERVED_WORDS檢視的RESERVED欄位內容是“Y”表示這個保留字不可以在識別符號中使用的。
sys@ora10g> select * from v$reserved_words where RESERVED = 'Y';

4.強制使用保留字的方法
如果要強制使用這些保留字，可以使用雙銀行將保留字括起來使用。不過如果使用了保留字，那麼使用起時將非常的不便，而且極易出現混淆的問題，因此應該嚴格禁止這種情況的發生。
1）以上面的例子為例演示一下使用保留字成功建立表的情況
sys@ora10g> create table t ("number" int);

Table created.

sys@ora10g> create table "number" ( x int);

Table created.

sys@ora10g> desc t
Name Null? Type
------------------------- -------- ----------------
number NUMBER(38)

2）此時必須使用帶引號的形式引用這個特殊的表名，操作不便，而且容易出現錯誤。
sys@ora10g> desc "number"
Name Null? Type
------------------------- -------- ----------------
X NUMBER(38)

5.V$RESERVED_WORDS檢視中的其他列的的含義請參考Oracle的官方文件

V$RESERVED_WORDS

This view gives a list of all keywords. To determine whether a particular keyword is reserved in any way, check theRESERVED,RES_TYPE,RES_ATTR, andRES_SEMIcolumns.

ColumnDatatypeDescription
KEYWORDVARCHAR2(30)Name of the keyword
LENGTHNUMBERLength of the keyword
RESERVEDVARCHAR2(1)A value of Y means that the keyword cannot be used as an identifier. A value of N means that it is not reserved.
RES_TYPEVARCHAR2(1)A value of Y means that the keyword cannot be used as a type name. A value of N means that it is not reserved.
RES_ATTRVARCHAR2(1)A value of Y means that the keyword cannot be used as an attribute name. A value of N means that it is not reserved.
RES_SEMIVARCHAR2(1)A value of Y means that the keyword is not allowed as an identifier in certain situations, such as in DML. A value of N means that it is not reserved.
DUPLICATEVARCHAR2(1)A value of Y means that the keyword is a duplicate of another keyword. A value of N means that it is not a duplicate.

6.小結
很多問題Oracle都在內部給出了答案，很是便利。如本例中使用V$RESERVED_WORDS檢視快速得到保留字的功能就是一個很好的例子。
