SQL Developer Data Modeler - MAC Version 2.0.0 Build 570 - Issues

In no particular order
- The Help, About box displays a different version information set then the SQL Developer Data Modeler, About SQl Developer Data Modeler.
- Not able to move any portion of the connection between entities. Thus there is no current way to align the lines as wanted.
- There is no way to scroll all the way to the right side if you have more then approximately 5 entities horizontally.
- Open SQl Developer data Modeler, Click on File, Open, select an XML file and a dialog box is displayed.
- The checkbox needs to be moved to the right as it is partially cut off.
- the text next to the checkbox is cutoff and only displays "Don't show this dialog agai".
- Printing Diagrams does not print correctly unless you have the entities displayed such that you can "read" them. If you have diminished the display so that you are not able to see the table or
field names then the Print Diagrams does not display the entity or field names.
- File, Recent Designs, does not retain the last or any design having been opened and/or saved.
- VarChar2 is not a displayed data type for Oracle 10G.
- There does not appear to be a way to create a set of fields which you would like to have added quickly and easily to selected tables.
- DDL Editor displays the Macintosh HD. It should display my User Directory

Sorry to dredge up an old thread.
I just downloaded data modeler and tried to start, but got an error regarding bad version:

I have JRE 1.5, but that seems to be the latest per the Software Udpate utility, and when prompted, I set my java directory to /usr, since my java bin was under /usr/bin.
Let me know if I should start a different thread.
Thanks.

  • Import / Export MySQL database in SQL Developer Data Modeler

    Hello,
    I have version 3.1.2.704 of SQL Developer Data Modeler and version 3.2.09 of SQL Developer installed.
    When I´m adding a new connection in SQL Developer, I can choose the MySQL tab an create a connection to a MySQL database.
    The connection test was successful and I can see all tables.
    I use the same JDBC driver for SQL Developer and SQL Developer Data Modeler (mysql-connector-java-5.0.4-bin.jar).
    But there are two problems.
    1. First there is an problem when I want to import from a MySQL database (SQL Developer -> File -> DataModeler -> Import -> DataDictionary).
    After choosing the MySQL connection and pressing the next button an error occurs: CONNECTION_TYPE
    What is the reason?
    2. In SQL Developer Data Modeler I have not the CONNECTION_TYPE problem. But when I want to export DDL, there is no MySQL type selectable, although there is working connection to the MySQL Database. It´s the same in SQL Developer.
    What is the reason?

    Hi,
    Data Modeler does not explicitly support import from MySQL databases, although you can use a JDBC connection to do this.
    Philip described how to set this up in forum message How to connect mySQL for reverve engineering
    There is no MySQL tab in Data Modeler - you should use "JDBC-ODBC Bridge" - "other third party Driver".
    Set URL like : jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/database_name
    driver Class: com.mysql.jdbc.DriverAlso Data Modeler does not support generation of DDL for MySQL.

  • How to install SQL Developer Data Modeler 3.1.1 for Mac OS X?

    How do I install SQL Developer Data Modeler 3.1.1 for Mac OS X? I downloaded the file "datamodeler-3.1.1-703-macosx.gz" from OTN, but there is only a single file inside this archive - "datamodeler-3.1.1-703-macosx". What am I missing here?
    Thanks in advance...

    Extract that file and then run it.
    Once you installed the tool to your Applications folder (if you choose to move it to Applications), you'll need to install Java (maybe).
    What version of OS X are you on?
    In a command window/terminal, type 'java -version'
    If you get something back like 'java version "1.6..." then you're all good.
    If you're on Mountain Lion, then type 'java' instead. That should download java for you.
    Once you've got java available, then launch SQL Developer Data Modeler.
    The installation notes are here if you want the official list of instructions

  • SQL Developer Data Modeler - Version 3.0.0.665 - Open older project fail

    Hi,
    I just downloaded latest version of SQL Developer Data Modeler (3.0.0.665) and there is no "File" -> "Open" menu item. There is only "Save", "Save as", "Compare with" and "Exit".
    I try to drag`n`drop project file to the Data Modeler window. This operation leads to opening project file as XML. I got the same result when I try to open the file with windows context menu "Open with".
    How can I open older Data Modeler project? My previous version was 3.0.0 and project file was created there.
    Maybe I need disable "Start Page'? But how? I cann`t find appropriate param in Tools -> Preferences

  • Sql Developer Data Modeler all domains lost after changing to version 3.0

    I have two questions:
    1. Sql Developer Data Modeler - is it still a separate product? Or is it only available as integrated within Sql Developer?
    2. After opening a model created with Data Modeler 2.0 with the new integrated Data Modeler 3.0 I lost all my domain definitions. What can I do to avoid this? Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Holger,
    Sql Developer Data Modeler - is it still a separate product? Or is it only available as integrated within Sql Developer?Standalone version is here http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/datamodeler/overview/index.html
    2. After opening a model created with Data Modeler 2.0 with the new integrated Data Modeler 3.0 I lost all my domain definitions. What can I do to avoid this? Any help would be appreciated.Copy file defaultdomains.xml from DM 2.0 installation to "sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\extensions\oracle.datamodeler\types" directory (if you use version in SQL Developer) or to
    "datamodeler\datamodeler\types" if you use standalone DM 3.0.
    Location of this directory can be set in preferences - it's called system types directory there - it contains: default domains, RDBMS sites, logical types and custom scripts.

  • SQL Developer Data Modeler scripting

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a new modeling software for my company. SQL Developer Data Modeler (SDDM) has many features that fit my requirements. But there are some things that I'm not sure can be done. I work mostly with Oracle databases but still need to support some legacy and non-sql databases. Please look at problems below and tell me if and how those things can be achieved. Any suggestions for alternative solutions are welcome too.
    1) I need to be able process Database Model from command line without human intervention and starting any GUI applications, for example generate DDL script form the model. Does SDDM have any interface for that?
    2) I want to be able to export Database Model into a file in a custom (legacy) format.
    3) SDDM stores database description in xml files. Is xml format defined anywhere? Are xsd schema files availabe?
    4) Is there a SDK available that would allow reading SDDM Database Model into a custom application for further processing?
    5) Is there any Java library available that parses Oracle-11-compatible SQL and PL/SQL?
    Thank you in advance

    Hi Kevin,
    thanks for sharing your thoughts. There will be much more advanced find/search facilities in next version of Data Modeler and scripts also will be covered.

  • How can I find out what is causing this error in SQL Developer Data Modeler

    Friends,
    I am trying to import entities into into SQL Developer Data Modeler from Oracle Designer 10.1.2.3.
    In case of need I perform these steps to perform the import:
    File --> Import --> Oracle Designer Model --> Select database connection --> Select work area --> select application system --> select one entity --> Click finish --> Import starts
    During the import process I see an alert dialog box with the message:
    There are errors in import - check Log file Clicking Ok dismisses the alert box and I see the following summary screen:

    Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

    No this helps a lot. It's not strange. Firstly, in a versioned repository you should see Private Workareas and Shared workareas, so your workarea may be in either of these. It won't be in the Global Shared Workarea, as this only for non-versioned repositories. (I like to open the RON by selecting the full Repository, that way I can see the private and shared worlareas and the configuration and containers all in the same tree.
    Now your workarea is defined by a set of rules, so when you expand the workarea in the RON, and select the object, then that's the workarea and object you'll see in the import dialog in the Data Modeler. So if you check it out and check it back in, and can't see it in the RON, then the rule is not seeing this object. (Did you refresh the workarea in the RON?) If you can't see it in the RON, you can't see it in the Data Modeler. If you're working in a versioned repository, you need to work in the specific work area, i.e V27 and this is what you need to select in the Data Modeler.
    It looks like you are selecting the wrong workarea in the Data Modeler.

  • Domains usage in SQL Developer data MODELER

    Hi,
    I'm trying to understand how to use Domains in Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler. We use version 3.1.3 .  before I used Toad Modeler  where domains are just part of your main design.
    Oracle data modeler has some different concept.
    let's assume I'm working on 2 designs:  DesignA and DesignB that include relational models.
    DesignA and Design B should use domains but list of domains in design A is very different than in design B.
    Default domain file is located on c: drive where SqlModeler is installed. It is obviously unacceptable , so I need to change Default System Type directory in preferences.
    And of course I want to have different domain directories for DESIGN A and DESIGN B.
    So when I open design A then I changed   Default System Type directory  let's say to x:\AAA.   Then i close design A and open Design B and change Default System Type directory to x:\BBB
    I checked folders AAA and BBB and they  have necessary XML files there:  defaultdomains.xml, defaultRFDBSSites and so on....
    Now questions:
    can I rename defaultdomains.xls to something else like AAAdomains.xls?  Domain administration can edit any domain file with any name , but how  can I associate certain domain file with my design?  My wish , when I open my design , then corresponding domain file will be open automatically.  Is it possible?
    If I open 2 designs in Sql Modeler and switch between designs  then corresponding domain files should be changed automatically as well.  Currently   I shouldn't forget to change default System Type directory every time when I switch models.  Is it the only way to handle it?
    Thanks
    vitaliy

    Hi Vitaliy,
    We use version 3.1.3
    I recommend always to use the latest version. If you don't want to use beta (DM 4.0 EA is out) you can use DM 3.3.
    Otherwise Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler supports two types of domains:
    1) DM installation domains - those in file defaultdomains.xml
    2) Design level domains - they are stored in design directories and are visible to particular design only. They can be created in following ways:
    2.1 Manually - there is a property "Domains file" and you id it's not set "defaultdomains" domain will become design level domain and will be stored in file with provided name (without .xml extension)
    You can change later the file for design level domains, however you cannot change file for domain already in defaultdomains.xml.
    2.2 Using types to domains wizard you can generate design level domains
    2.3 Design level domains are created during import of  DDL files (controlled in preferences)
    2.4 You can import domains from specific file with domains using "File>Import>Domains" - you need to rename the source file if it's named defaultdomains.xml otherwise you'll get domains as installation domains
    If the list with domains is too long you can define  a list with preferred domains (or/and logical types) in "Preferences>Data Modeler>Model" and you can use shorter list in Table/Entity dialog if check "Preferred" check box next to "Type:" combo box.
    If I open 2 designs in Sql Modeler and switch between designs  then corresponding domain files should be changed automatically as well
    If you open 2 designs in one instance of DM they will use the same file with default domains i.e. you'll lose domains in one of design depending of setting for "system data type directory". You need to go with design level domains.

  • Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler start up error

    Hi All,
    I just downloaded Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler (2.0.0.57.0) [Released 1 July 2009] by selecting the option "Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler for Windows (This zip file includes the JRE)"
    After I installed the same and tried to run it by clicking datamodeler.exe, I get the following error message
    "unable to create an instance of the Java virtual machine located at path:..\jdk\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll"
    On the same machine I can successfuly run the Oracle SQL Develper with no errors. My machine is having Windows XP Professional SP3.
    Any ideas? If there was a problem with Java, than the Oracle SQL Developer should also not run. But as stated it runs with out any error but the Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler gives the above error.
    Regards,
    JAA149

    1 - The above problem has nothing to do with the memmory. I tried on a 400 MB RAM, 900 MB RAM, 1.5 MB RAM & 2 MB RAM with the same arror.
    "unable to create an instance of the Java virtual machine located at path:..\jdk\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll"

    2 - There are two "datamodeler.exe: files
    One is at D:\datamodeler\datamodeler.exe
    2nd is at D:\datamodeler\bin\datamodeler.exe
    The same error occurs with both the files.
    3 - The Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler version is "Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler (2.0.0.57.0) [Released 1 July 2009]" and the file I downloaded is "Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler for Windows (This zip file includes the JRE) - (57M)"
    If I look in "D:\datamodeler\jdk\jre\README.txt" I find
    "Java(TM) Platform, Standard Edition Runtime Environment Version 6"
    If I run "D:\datamodeler\jdk\jre\bin\javacpl.exe" I get

    If I go to "http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp" and download "jre-6u16-windows-i586-s.exe" and run it.
    If I go to "C:\Program Files\Java\jre6" I find the same files as in "D:\datamodeler\jdk\jre"
    I am able to run Oracle SQL Developer with out any kind of error let alone the above one. But with Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler I get the above mentioned error no matter what I try.
    As the error states "unable to create an instance of the Java virtual machine located at path:..\jdk\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll". The file "jvm.dll" is located at two places. One at "D:\datamodeler\jdk\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll" and the second at "D:\datamodeler\jdk\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll"
    A similiar problem occurs with JDeveloper with the fllowing solution
    http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=506339&start=0&tstart=0
    Which states the following
    "hello!

The jdk have a file jvm.dll in the path: jdk/jre/bin/client/jvm.dll this is the problem ... now in the path:jdk/jre/bin/client/ojvm has a file with the same name if you copy and paste this file to the another path, now its works fine your Jdeveloper.
    Jdeveloper use two files to jvm.dll to work one in the folder /client and other in /server copy the same file to the two locations for precaution

    I tried to do the same (Copy from client folder to server folder)

    Now, the executable is lauching correctly. No more errors with Java Virtual Machine.
    But is it a good thing to solve it like that ?"
    But the ide.conf file is only at "D:\sqldeveloper\ide\bin\ide.conf" which is for the SQL Developer and not the SQl Developer Data Modeler
    Correct me if I am wrong but
    JRE = Java Run Time Envoirment
    JDK = Java Development Kit
    And Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler needs JRE and not JDK. In any case I download JDK
    jdk-6u14-javafx-1_2-windows-i586.exe (121,306 KB) and installed it but no succcess.
    I tried every thing except completely re-install my whole PC.

  • New To SQL Developer Data Modeler - Data Dictionary Report

    I am new to Data Modeler and I am currently learning what I can do and can't with it. Is there a way to generate a "Data Dictionary" report? We would like a report we can distribute that describes all tables and columns with descriptions and comments. We used to use an old version of Power Designer and we could do this from the data model we created. Is it possible to do something like this from SQL Developer Datas Modeler?

    Hi,
    Saxon is just an option, you don't need it by default.
    Could be permissions problem. What are you working on i.e. OS? What java version do you use?
    Even though you have specified directory for the reports do you have permissions to write there?
    Report generation directories priority is:
    1. Custom directory if specified in Settings->Data Modeler->Default Reports Directory
    2. /datamodeler/reports/
    3. User home directory
    You must have permissions somewhere on these directories. On the other hand you are saying that report_data.xml is generated so you have permissions.
    Okay. Now I saw a bug in 710. When you click "Generate report" there are progress dialogs and result dialog, but if you meanwhile click somewhere or change focus, these dialogs are hiding below main "Reports" dialog i.e. you are not seeing them. If you use Alt+Tab the result dialog will popup. This bug is fixed in the next release.
    So you must see either result dialog or error dialog at the end of report generation. If not check with Alt+Tab if it is not hidden somewhere below and if there is no such dialog close the DataModeler and check the log file for some error.
    There is SQL Developer Data Modeler 3.3 Early Adopter Available.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/datamodeler/downloads/datamodeler-33-ea-1869055.html
    Above issue is fixed there and report is opening automatically.

    What is the object model used by:

    From looking at the examples (and guessing) I have managed to create ID attributes on all my entities, but how do I set its sequence number or set it as the primary key?
    entities = model.getEntitySet().toArray();

    Data Modeler doesn't parse/process these definitions, we decided to not filter them out however you should not rely that much on them

    For each object you can set your own properties and they will be persisted (also included in compare/merge in versioning) together with other information for object - look at "template table" example in transformation scripts. Here are methods you can use:
    void setProperty(String key, String value);
         String getProperty(String key);
         boolean hasProperty(String key);
         boolean hasProperty(String key, String value);
