Breakable Parse Locks
A SQL statement (or PL/SQL program unit) in the shared pool holds a parse lock for each schema object it references. Parse locks are acquired so that the associated shared SQL area can be invalidated if a referenced object is altered or dropped. A parse lock does not disallow any DDL operation and can be broken to allow conflicting DDL operations, hence the name breakable parse lock.
A parse lock is acquired during the parse phase of SQL statement execution and held as long as the shared SQL area for that statement remains in the shared pool.
Duration of DDL Locks
The duration of a DDL lock depends on its type. Exclusive and share DDL locks last for the duration of DDL statement execution and automatic commit. A parse lock persists as long as the associated SQL statement remains in the shared pool.
