DATABASE OBJECTS/ABSTRACT TYPES ? (ora-00439)

[ShrutiM]

I am trying to create database objects/abstract type in Oracle 8.0.5. But it is giving error (ora-00439) that the feature is not enabled......... Please Help!!

The syntax used is:

create type test as object (
Street varchar2(30),
City varchar2(30));



Thanks!!

You need to enable Oracle Objects on installation.

Thanks a lot !
I tried to install oracle on Windows 2000, but I didn't get any option of enabling the Objects. But even then after custom creation of database I was able to create objects. But when I tried to install on Linux I didn't come across any custom database creation option so how to go about it ?
