About oracle development tools

I have heard about oracle development tools are supported to use visual studio.
I am confused , is it for developing whole application as we design in oracle designer and forms builder or just for debug
the PL/SQL codes?
please tell me about oracle development tools that can we develop entire the application using pl/sql codes in visual studio 10 or later and having more features of visual studio.?

You should read the page provided more closely.
Oracle developing tools provides interface to ASP, .NET and other Microsoft-developed interface drivers to databases.
ODT make application development of an ASP or .NET application connecting to Oracle RDBMS easy.
On of top of that it also includes a PL/SQL debugger.
PL/SQL is a backend language.
It is not possible and will never be possible to develop an application solely by using PL/SQL
Forms Builder uses more than PL/SQL, Apex does too, JDeveloper does too.
PL/SQL doesn't contain any graphical interface.

Tns problem with Oracle 11g ODAC 11.1.0.6.21 with Oracle Developer Tools

I installed the full
Oracle 11g ODAC 11.1.0.6.21 with Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio
now I am at the good old "[ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified]" error.
I copied the same tnsnames.ora as used on the db server
onto the client "C:\Oracle\product\11.1.0\client_2\Network\Admin".
The host name is right since a normal ping works. TNSping is not available.
but I get the [ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified] error.
The listener is running and the instance as well since it all works on the source server.
I tried it with
SET path=c:\oracle\product\11.1.0\client_2\bin
but tnsping is still not recognized.
sqlplus works on the other hand when I set it to
SET path=c:\oracle\product\11.1.0\client_2\
what is going on...

hey
u can post your query here, and i think everyone here is to share opinion so do not hesitate to do so and please try to google before posting here,
and we know no one is expert like some people saying 'boring questions' you just try to overcome your problem and you will definitly get your problem solved .
some mpeople ar still there who answeres hopeless questions and say nothing about them but when a fresher askin a qustion is not tolarated by them they think everyone is born DBA here
they always tend to discouraging people here on forums,and i think they are vvolunteers to reduce crowd here on forums, inspite of there experience and people respect them they can not control their anger
so please post you tns here, i think there are ways to ask people to google and search docs first, but not like this
thanks and regards

Suggestions for the Oracle Developer Tools for VS2005

I'd like to start a thread for constructive feedback of the Beta version of these Oracle Developer Tools for VS2005.
First off, check the known issues here before posting:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/dotnet/odt10202rn.html
So, here are my issues:
- In the Oracle Explorer, when you right click on a large table and click "Retrieve Data..." it hangs the IDE until an apparent timeout value of 30 seconds, then shows a message box stating that "The query is taking a long time. Would you like to continue" ...waiting? I think the better approach here is to follow MS. In Menu Tools -> Options -> Database Tools -> DataConnections, there is a setting to limit SQL results to x number of rows. I think ODT should do one of the following. 1. Read this value and apply it. OR 2. Hardcode a value of 100 - 500 rows. 3. Add a setting similar to MS in the Options...
- In the Oracle Explorer, when you right-click on a view and click "Design..." the code for the view opens, but is not very readable because the line breaks are interpreted a little boxes. After dumping it into a hex editor, you can see the little box characters are Linefeeds (Char(10)). If these are all replaced with Carriage Return+Linefeed (Chr(13) + Char(10)), and pasted back into the editor in VS2005, it works perfectly. Note: My Oracle 9i Server is running on the Linux platform.
- I know this is a known issue, but this one's a biggie for me. Drag and drop is not supported from Oracle Explorer to the XML Schema Designer. Will Drag-and-Drop of tables generate TableAdapters as well with the Fill methods?
- Pre-existing Triggers don't seem to be visible in the Oracle Explorer.
Thanks,
-Tony

Hi
I am new to Oracle but not to VS. I have downloaded and installed the newest tools for Developer, having first tried the install for VS2003.net (which refused to install on my VS 2005.) I got the beta download and installed it, but my oracle explorer shows nothing. Any attempt to add a connection results in an error ORA-12560:TNS:protocol adaptor error. I had the full install of 10g r2 on my notebook, but removed it and opted for the XE version. I removed the Oracle_Home environment variable prior to installing XE. I am trying to connect to the HR database, and the account is unlocked. I saw a reference to the tnsfiles file, and that seems to be the problem, but I don't know what to do about it. Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer help.

Oracle Development Tools and TFS

Hey there,
currently I'm struggeling with how to work with Visual Studio Oracle Development Tools and TFS.
I'm relatively new to Oracle-DBs, I'm known to MS SQL Server.
In General my colleagues and me work in the solution Explorer (SQL Server DB-Solution), upload and get the latest Version from TFS. If anything new comes in I can easily use the Schema compare from my solution to the database.
Now my question: How is this possible when working with Oracle DBs? Imagine I get some new tables and schemas from TFS. How do I Transfer this easily from solution Explorer to my Server Explorer / DBs?
Do I really have to deploy each and every script manually?
Thanks in advance

Hi Matthaeus Woroch,
Since this issue is related to the Oracle tool, you know that it is the third party tool and it has own support site, like the following documents:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/visual-studio/overview/index.html
I suggest you post this issue to the Oracle forum for dedicated support. Thanks for your understanding.

Connection Problem When Using Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio

I tried to create an Oracle Connection in my Visual Studio 2008 after installing Oracle 11g, Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC) with Oracle Devleoper Tools for Vissual Studio version 11.1.0.6.20.
I followed the directions according to "Building .NET Applications Using Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio, when I click Test Connection, I keep getting the error message below.
Microsoft Visual Studio
ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurred
OK
---------------------------

I solved the problem.
This is what I did for the benefit of the embryonic newbe like me.
On the Add Connection Dialog
1.     For Data source name I selected Local Database
2.     I clicked on the specific User Name and I typed SYSTEM
3.     For Password, I typed orcl (the password I setup during the installation) (HR did not work for me for User name and Password according to the tutorial instructions)
4.     For Role, I selected Default
5.     Connection Name, I selected Local Database
6.     Before proceeding any further went to Windows XP SP3 where I was operating from, under Start Menu, I selected Administrative Tools then Services
a.     On the Windows Services (Local) Dialog, under name, I selected OracleServiceORCL and OracleOraDb11g_home1TNSListener. I clicked on them one at a time
b.     On the presented Dialog, under Service Status, I Clicked on the Start Button to start the Services
c.     Then I went back to the Add Connection Dialog. I clicked on Test Connection, it connected okay. I finally clicked on Okay to connect.

Deploy without Oracle Developer Tools

Hi,
Is it possible to deploy a .NET stored procedure to Oracle 10g without using Oracle Developer Tools? If yes, can someone describe the process?
Thanks.

As Skj said, you need ODT to at least generate the deploy script (you don't actually need to perform the deployment with ODT, just generate the script).
The last screen of the ODT .NET deployment wizard offers a chance to save the script to a file. You can save that script and then cancel the wizard, and from there on do everything manually, as skj mentions.
Post back here if you have further questions.

What is the future for an Oracle Development tools?

I mean, Oracle Developer looks like Cobol 10 years ago. It is a tool, but it is hardly to support and learn. Many of pepole prefere non-Oracle tools now.
Do Oracle plane to desupport Developer, switch to JDeveloper or license a something from a Borland one more?
It can be able to develop on C++ or PL/SQL (Serverlets), but Visual Rapid tool is preferable.

I think that the only problem with Forms
are some "basic" bugs that Oracle spends
too much time to fix them. Except this,
Forms is the best tool to develop ERP
applications (database intensive). It just
happend yesterday in our company. We recently
participated in a competition to develop a
sales system, with reports, images, technical
data, etc. The team from USA with VB and
SQL Server spent 18 months developing the
system and we with Forms and Oracle DB spent
, believe it or not, 1 month with more
functionality, specially in queries and
much faster to execute. I agree that with VB
for example, we can create wonderful GUI
screens but to do so, we spend more time,
the system will be larger, difficult to
maintain (because of more code) and many
times, not reliable. Besides I have never
seen a tool where we can run without any
change in client/server or WEB. We have
compared Forms in the last 6 years with
many other tools like VB, VC, Gembase,
Fabasoft, Obsydian, Progress, etc. None of
them could surpass Forms in performance,
development time and application
functionality (transaction, database,
query, data secuity, etc). Even GUI is not
far from these tools. Sometimes portability
is much more important than GUI richness.
We use Forms since we had VAX/VMS and
we could move from this to Windows 3.11,
Windows NT and now WEB without any big
headache. About the learning curve, we have
3 students that were able to learn and be
productive with Forms in 2 months. Compared
with our older systems developed with COBOL
we are now 2 to 10 times faster to develop
and maintain applications, with much less
bugs. All because of application standards,
less code, standardized screens, object
classes, libraries and stored procedures.
The last tool comparison was with Java but
again, the programming effort to achieve
only half of the functionality that
our Forms applications have, was huge. Not
to mention that this Java application
required 70Mb of memory to execute against
22Mb from WEB Forms (client/server only
12Mb). Besides WEB Forms was 5 times faster
to execute when, for example, navigating in
a tabular block.

Questions about Oracle Developer

Hi,
Can anyone provide me with information regarding the difference between Oracle Developer 6.0 and Oracle Developer Server 6.0? I need to use the Developer tools to connect to a remote server for development purpose and would like to know which software I have to use.
Thanks!

Hi! Please post this question in the Forms6i or Oracle Reports forums. Forms and Reports were previously parts of Oracle Developer.
Thanks!

About Oracle Developer Suite

Hello,
I wanna know what's the newest version of Oracle Developer Suite? I found only 10.1.2.0.2 which includes JDeveloper 10.1.2.1, but i need JDeveloper 10.1.3. Do i need to install sepparately the 10.1.3 version of JDeveloper?
Thanks!

Note that there is now JDeveloper11g.
What was the developer suite (the bundle of builders) is now part of the main FMW build.

Three questions about the developer tools

At my company we have evaluated this very handy tool, and we have only three questions...
* Will the autocomplete feature be more intelligent. For example pl/sql developer recognize partially written table names and suggest a full name.
* How to debug and step through the procedures?? This is a MUST!!!!
* Is it possible to add source control integration (source safe) for the packages/procedures?
With these features, it will be super!!
/henrik

When I was at the VSLive in San Francisco back in February, I spent some time at the Oracle booth and I asked for Source Control also.
I was told to my happy suprise that lots of other developers had been asking for that also but I was shocked when the Oracle reps told me that they didn't understand why people would want this feature or how they would use it. They tried to convince me that "Generate Create Script" was what I wanted.
Btw, "Generate Create Script" ticks me off. It always sticks the package owner in the create script and when I check it back in VSS I have to go in and edit it back out!!!
It seems to me that the mindset behind many Oracle tools is to work "on the database". I will admit that I don't use many Oracle tools. I used Procedure builder a few times but thats about it. To me it seemed pretty clunky, but it was nice to be able to debug a stored procedure. Or it was until you crashed the SP and it became locked in the database and un-updatable without a bounce ;)
Most developers that I know, prefer to work "on their hard-drives" and publish to the database or some variation on that.
I would love to see a tool for editing SPs and Packages where I could check out my code, make a change, compile it on the DB, and check my changes back into the source control. One more catch, we use VSS's ability to update the version number in a source code file on check-in so the version that ends up in the DB should have the "new" version number in the comment header.
Also, the "Auto Code Generation" tool is not geared towards the type of code I write. I thought we were supposed to get away from writing data access code in our forms? Yet, this tool throws all kinds of stuff in for doing just that and no tools to make it easier (that I could find) to create a data acces layer for wrapping my stored procedures and packages. Where are these tools, Oracle? Help us write better code, not worse.
The autocomplete is nice, but I have trouble with it. For example, if I type a table name and "." it will bring up all the columns in the table. If I type "R" it scrolls to the first column that starts with "R". But if I type "S" next, instead of scrolling to the first column that starts with "RS" it spits out the currently selected column and sticks an "S" on the end. Other times it doesn't work at all.
The "Query" window is next to useless. It should work more like a SQL Plus (DOS) window. Or at the very least more like a SQL Server Query Analyzer Query window. I'll keep my SQL Plus until this is way better.
Hopefully the next version (or 2 or 3) will be better. I hope Oracle is listening. They did acknowledge that other developers were asking for some of the same improvements.

No Oracle Developer Tools and Datasources for VS2012 Update 3

Hi all
I am using VS2012 Update 3 and I have installed Oracle 11.2.0.3.20 32 bit successfully. Unfortunately, the tools are not showing up in the VS About Dialog, nor do I have the Oracle Datasources in VS.
Any help appreciated.
Juerg

Hi Christian
Thanks for reply. Yes I did install this exact version. The funny thing is that I can open a project in VS2012 (created in VS2010 with the 11.2.0.3 version on an other box) on my machine and the VS2012 EF designer opens correctly when double clicking on the .edmx file. The Oracle Client data providers however do not show up ( and therefore I cannot recreate the model from the database). Also the About dialog does not contain the VS Oracle tools. Build and run however works, as well deployment to an IIS/R2008 server where 11.2.0.3 is installed.
The ifile is a parameter in the tnsnames.ora file to reference other tnsnames.ora. That is the way we reference the company wide tnsnames.ora on a shared drive. This does not work in the 12.1 ODT version.
http://oracleprofessional.blogspot.ch/2007/05/using-ifile-to-centralise-tnsnamesora.html
IMHO the uninstalling of the 12.1 and reinstalling 11.2.0.3 somehow screwed up the registry or whatever. I am quite familiar with VS and also the command line switches, I did all I could (/resetsettings, etc), but nothing helped. Also a repair of VS2012 did not help. After the not working 11.2.0.3 I tried to reinstall 12.1, but with no success. I always did an uninstall and a reboot in between each installation/uninstallation.
Another question, this installer looks a bit outdated, did Oracle ever think about using newer ways of providing such an installer ( NuGet, and/or vsix) ?
Kind regards
Juerg

Migrating from Delphi to Oracle Developer Tools

We currently have a business application for financial institutions accessing oracle 8 database. However the application4s front end (the user interface), is based on Borland Delphi 5. We are interested in moving this to a web enable user interface by using the new Oracle Tools. I appreciate you to help us with some advice about how to make it easier.

Are you using JDK 1.5? If yes, there is an 'enum' type that will almost certainly be what you are looking for. If not (JDK 1.4 or earlier) do a Google on 'Java type-safe enum example'. Specifically regarding the following:
Alignment a = Alignment.RIGHT
That is fine. But normally, you do not need to assign another variable. Just use Alignment.RIGHT directly.

it is very good for you to move to oracle
its completely covers the database solutions.
since its is the database which obeys the maximum codd's rules
so very efficient as per quality is concerened...

If so, you need to choose the drop down box and set it to "SYSDBA".
