Is it possible via script/tool to generate authomatically many delete statements based on the tables fk relations, using Oracle PL/SQL?
In example: I have the table: CHICKEN (CHICKEN_CODE NUMBER) and there are 30 tables with fk references to its CHICKEN_CODE that I need to delete; there are also other 150 tables foreign-key-linked to that 30 tables that I need to delete first.
Is there some tool/script PL/SQL that I can run in order to generate all the necessary delete statements based on the FK relations for me?
(by the way, I know about cascade delete on the relations, but please pay attention: I CAN'T USE IT IN MY PRODUCTION DATABASE, because it's dangerous!)
I'm using Oracle DataBase 10G R2.
This is the result I've written, but it is not recursive:
This is a view I have previously written, but of course it is not recursive!

Thank to Charles, this is the latest not working release of the software, I have added a parameter with the OWNER because the referential integrities propagate through about 5 other Oracle users (!!!):

In the cursor CONS_CURSOR I have added the condition:
AND delete_rule = 'NO ACTION';
in order to avoid deletion in case of referential integrities with DELETE_RULE = 'CASCADE' or DELETE_RULE = 'SET NULL'.
Now I have tried to turn from stored procedure to stored function, but the delete statements are not correct:

Please assume that V_CHICKEN and V_NATION are the criteria to select the CHICKEN to delete from the root table: the condition is: "where COD_CHICKEN = V_CHICKEN AND COD_NATION = V_NATION" on the root table.
