Difference between object privileges and schema object privileges

[nukavarapu]

Hi,
In oracle 8.1 documentation they mentioned that the two distinct categories of privileges are
1.System privileges
2.Schema object privileges.

It was also mentioned that the Oracle user privileges are divided into two categories as follows:
1.system privileges.
2.object privileges.

I would like to know whether the object privileges and schema object privileges are same .Could any one help me in clarifying this doubt.

I would also like to know how many system privileges are available.
thanks in advance
Ravi

It may be that shema object privileges refers to user objects rather than system objects such as the catalog.

To research the system privilege count, I ran:

select count(distinct privilege) from dba_sys_privs;

115 rows selected.

I ran this query against a fairly new installation of Personal Oracle 8.1.6 on Win98 (I'm at home). I'm sure the answer is different depending upon the version # and Edition.

schema object priviliges and object privilged mean the same
