The recycle bin Oracle 10g has been introduced now and it can be very beneficial to you. What it basically does is gives you the opportunity to delete database objects by moving them to the recycle bin. You can then get access to the recycle bin of the current user or all users if you have sufficient privileges.

The above image shows you what your recycle bin looks like with Oracle 10g. What it basically does is takes objects like indexes, constraints, and other dependent objects and rename them, but they are still occupying the same space as when they were deleted. These objects will remain in the recycle bin until you decide to permanently remove them using the new "purge" command.

For more information on how to work with the Oracle 10g recycle bin, do some research online and see what else you can find. The above information is simply the basics of what it is and how it works. The Oracle 10g is a program that you can download and install to your computer so you have access to use its features.
