The following rule is documented with the restriction "ORACLE 11g or later":

• G-2230

The following rules are documented with the restriction "ORACLE 12c":

• G-3150
• G-3160
• G-3170

All other rules do not have a restriction regarding the Oracle Database version. In the introduction chapter thescope of these guidelines is defined without an explicit Oracle Database version.

As a result for the majority of the rules it is not clear for which Oracle Database version is applicable.

I suggest the following:

• Defining the minimal Oracle Database version in the Introduction chapter under the scope for PL/SQL and SQL. I suggest to use Oracle Database 11g Release 2.

• Remove restriction in rule G-2230

• Rename Restrictions from "ORACLE 12c" to "Oracle Database 12c" or "ORACLE Database 12c". (ORACLE is more than just a database).

• Add a Restriction to all guidelines that are not applicable in Oracle Database 11g Release 2. These are for example

  • G-9010
  • G-9020
  • G-9030
  • maybe more, to be checked according the release information for 4.0
