ODC allows you to view and manage materialized views on the GUI.
Structure tree
As shown in the following figure, click the expand icon before the name of the target materialized view in the materialized view list. Its schema tree is displayed in the drop-down list. The schema tree of an object materialized view can have up to three levels. When you right-click an item in the schema tree, the context menu displays some operations that you can perform on the item. For more information about these operations, see the table of management operations in Management Operations.
Manage operations
In the materialized view list, the names of objects are sorted by the first character in ascending order by default. Right-click the target item in the structure tree. A shortcut menu appears, displaying some operation commands provided by ODC for you to manage the target object. The following table describes the management commands.
| Operation | Description |
|---|---|
| View Materialized View Properties | Enter the Properties tab, view the basic information, columns, and code of the materialized view. |
| View materialized view data | Enter the Data tab, view data in the materialized view. |
| Download | Download the SQL file of the materialized view object. |
| Copy | Select object name, Select statements, Insert statements, Update statements, or Delete statements. |
| Delete | Delete the current materialized view object. |
