SYSCAT.TABDEP catalog view

Each row represents a dependency of a view or a materialized query table on some other object. The view or materialized query table depends on the object of type BTYPE of name BNAME, so a change to the object affects the view or materialized query table. Also encodes how privileges on views depend on privileges on underlying tables and views.
