Anyone have a way to detect the current value of the row archival visibility session parameter? ALL or the default of ACTIVE? I can't see it anywhere obvious, like userenv or v$session or a dbms_ilm procedure.
If anyone isn't familiar with it, this is how it works:
orclz> alter table emp row archival;

Table altered.

orclz> update emp set ora_archive_state=1 where hiredate<to_date('1985','yyyy');

12 rows updated.

orclz> select * from emp;

      7876 ADAMS      CLERK           7788 1987-05-23 00:00:00       1100

orclz> alter session set row archival visibility=all;

Session altered.

orclz> select * from emp;
