Oracle DBMS_APP_CONT
Version 21c

General Information
Library Note Morgan's Library Page Header
ACE Director Alum Daniel Morgan, founder of Morgan's Library, is scheduling complimentary technical Workshops on Database Security for the first 30 Oracle Database customers located anywhere in North America, EMEA, LATAM, or APAC that send an email to asra_us@oracle.com. Request a Workshop for your organization today.
Purpose Used to provide an interface to determine if the in-flight transaction on a now unavailable session committed or not, and if the last call on that session completed or not.

All of its functionality with the exception of a single object was split out into a new package named DBMS_APP_CONT_ADMIN and the documentation was partially update to reflect the change but the required docs for DBMS_APP_CONT_ADMIN are missing. Will be opening an SR later this evening. This looks like more of the work of Oracle's Executive VP of Product Renaming.
