I try to find the arguments of type methods.
So the frame is to join DBA_TYPE_METHODS and DBA_ARGUMENTS (maybe using intermediate views like DBA_PROCEDURES):
SQL> desc dba_type_methods
 Name                                   Null?    Type
 -------------------------------------- -------- --------------------------
 OWNER                                  NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30)
 TYPE_NAME                              NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30)
 METHOD_NAME                            NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30)
 METHOD_NO                              NOT NULL NUMBER
 METHOD_TYPE                                     VARCHAR2(6)
 PARAMETERS                             NOT NULL NUMBER
 RESULTS                                NOT NULL NUMBER
 FINAL                                           VARCHAR2(3)
 INSTANTIABLE                                    VARCHAR2(3)
 OVERRIDING                                      VARCHAR2(3)
 INHERITED                                       VARCHAR2(3)

SQL> desc dba_arguments
 Name                                   Null?    Type
 -------------------------------------- -------- --------------------------
 OWNER                                  NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30)
 OBJECT_NAME                                     VARCHAR2(30)
 PACKAGE_NAME                                    VARCHAR2(30)
 OBJECT_ID                              NOT NULL NUMBER
 OVERLOAD                                        VARCHAR2(40)
 SUBPROGRAM_ID                                   NUMBER
 ARGUMENT_NAME                                   VARCHAR2(30)
 POSITION                               NOT NULL NUMBER
 SEQUENCE                               NOT NULL NUMBER
 DATA_LEVEL                             NOT NULL NUMBER
 DATA_TYPE                                       VARCHAR2(30)
...

My first idea was:
owner       <=> owner
type_name   <=> package_name
method_name <=> object_name
but some methods can be overloaded (something that is not indicated in dba_type_methods), so it comes:
owner       <=> owner
type_name   <=> package_name
method_name <=> object_name
method_no   <=> subprogram_id
but the last condition is wrong, too simple. Sad

If anyone has an idea how to get the arguments of a type method from the dictionary, it'd be welcome.
