APEX 3.0.1 and SQL Developer integration - what is it?

Hello
In the Apex Release 3.0.1 page, it reads "Supports direct integration with Oracle SQL Developer 1.2.". What does this exactly mean? I looked at the patch notes but could not find any info... I am not a current user of SQL Developer (long way to go to get close to PL/SQL Developer's PL/SQL development functionality IMHO) but wouldn't mind giving it a try depending on what this "integration" means...
Thanks
Luis

Hi Earl,
I have blogged about that some time ago. See http://inside-apex.blogspot.com/2007/05/what-is-your-favorite-plsql-development.html
For me the main advantages out of many are
-) real code completion. Also for local variables, parameter,... and not just for tables/columns.
-) showing unused variables, enforcing coding styleguides -> shows warning if you don't use the correct prefix for your parameters/local variables/...
-) powerful template system with placeholders, conditions, autoreplace
-) Refactoring support
I think the biggest drawback of SQL Developer was (has been fixed I think with 1.1) that you couldn't do file based PL/SQL development.

GeoRaptor and SQL Developer - Another approach?

Folks,
The moribund GeoRaptor project lit lots of faces all over the world.
But the project simply has no traction even though a few of us want to help.
I have pushed SQL Developer integration with some non-mainstream companies I know that have Oracle Spatial and Java experience but no one seems interested in providing product outside of their own applications.
IMHO the best team to put spatial into SQL Developer is the Oracle Spatial Products team headed by Xavier Lopez. I would like to see closer integration between these two Oracle teams such that we don't see independent MapBuilder downloads but extensions for SQL Developer itself such that we could use the flexbility and power in SQL Developer (eg explain plan) with Oracle Spatial. (Why not be able to execute Spatial SQL eg SDO_ANYINTERACT but with the filter geometry coming from the user clicking on the screen? How about explain plan for this?)
GeoRaptor has integration with ArcSDE and ArcIMS. But why? ESRI does this already via ArcExplorer for its customers and is not interested in putting their tools in someone elses product. So, why not integration with MapViewer? Why not WMS and WFS (of which MapViewer does both)?
But given SQL Developer's positioning as a tool of choice for MySQL, SQL Server (PostgreSQL) why not extend existing MapBuilder visualisation capability by having it render data from MySQL Spatial and other database spatial? (A Tools>Option>DisplayGeometryAsWKT would be cool - not just the nice SDO_GEOMETRY rendering in the existing GeoRaptor.)
Finally, the shapefile loader could be complemented by a shapefile exporter as there is lots of GeoTools Java around that shows how to do this.
So, to push debate I've done this:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=42626:39:2113453281829203::NO::P39_ID:6481
Please vote.

Reggie, Simon, Chris
I am project admin of the GeoRaptor project on sourceforge and it indeed has been really
quiet the last years. I took over from the original owner -who abandoned the project-
when I discovered that a simple change would let GeoRaptor work with SQL Developer 1.5.
Since then I did not have time to fix / enhance GeoRaptor.
I recently have been thinking of working on GeoRaptor again, the bugs and lack of some basic features like WMS background
are starting to annoy me ;-)
First things to do would be fixing some simple bugs, making GeoRaptor to work with SQL Developer 2 and implementing
some of the points you describe.
I like your wish lists; it would certainly enhance GeoRaptor's usefullness.
Integrating Mapbuilder with SQLDeveloper would be a perfect option, I will vote if still possible.
Chris, great if you want to help! please let me know if I can be of any help.

Using TOAD and SQL Developer to compare db objects in schemas in databases

Hi All,
My primary objective was to compare objects in schemas in two different databases and find out the differences,
Execute DDL's in the database where objects are missing and syn schemas in two different databases.
So I need to compare schemas in databases. Which tool would be helpful and will be user friendly to make a comparison of database objects existing in schemas in two different databases.
I'd like to see if I can get a list of pro and cons between Toad and SQL Developer for comparing schemas pros and cons.
Could you please also help me on navigation in SQL Developer to compare schemas.
Connect to Source
Connect to Target
Compare schemas with different object types
Find out differences
Generate DDL's for the missing objects or for the objects in difference report
Run them in missing instace(Source/Target)
Make sure both are in sync.
Thanks All

Hi,
Most dba type tools have this kind of functionality - personally i use plsqldeveloper but this is very similar to most other tools on the market. SQL Developer seems to rely on you needing the change management pack licence which you likely dont have and would be quite a large cost to roll out.
I'd compare plsqldeveloper/toad/sqlnavigator etc and maybe the tools from redgate which look pretty good though i haven't used them.

Harry

Installing Oracle Database and SQL Developer

Hi, I was looking for some help/advice in regards to installing an Oracle Database and SQL Developer onto a Windows 7 32bit machine. I have been asked to create a database to store data that I create through reports in Excel so I am required to create a local database but not sure how to go about doing this. Also not sure if I install the Express Edition or Oracle Database 11g R2. If somebody could please advise on how I can get this started or even any links/tutorials that would guide me in how to get this installed with a localhost.
Thanks in advanc.

Thanks guys, I have managed to install Oracle 11gR2 and I have setup a database using the dbca tool and I can connect to my new database. One thing that I have noticed is that when i look into my tables in sql developer i see loads of different tables i.e. def$_, logmnr_, etc and I am not sure why this is as I expected an empty tablespace.
Thanks btw for all your help.
One of the key principles of relational databases is that they use their own facilities to manage themselves. That means the database management system uses the database to manage data about the database using exactly the same facilities (tablespaces, tables, user accounts, procedures, etc) that an application uses to keep data for the application. See "data dictionary" So there is no such thing as a completely empty database.
As said by others, you do NOT want to be creating your own tables under oracle's schemas (users) or in oracle's own tablespaces (esp. SYSTEM and SYSAUX). Create your own user account/schema. Create your own tablespace. Make that tablespace the default for that user.

Where can I find more OBE like the one for Database xE and SQL Developer?

Hi,
I tried to post on the OBE forum but it is expired.
I found the downloadable OBE, or tutorial, very good resources for me to learn Oracle, like the one for XE and SQL developer, which you can download, not just read online, and see as many times as you can, with flash stuffs inside,
Will you make more this kind of OBE?
Where can I find them?
Peter

Hi Hans,
I know the above address you offered but those are
not downloadble.So do what I do .... CTRL-S (save page)
As an Oracle trainer, I consider the OBEs to be very important. I doubt that Oracle will get rid of them.
However, it takes time to make them. I suspect that they are created when a new feature needs to be demonstrated and the product management has the resources available.
I just wish they would make the original set from Oracle8i available. They provided some very important basics which have long since hit the archive pile.
I'm sure that some of the ACEs would be happy to upgrade them to Oracle10g/11g level. I know I would be willing to contribute to that effort.

WHAT IS DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DEVELOPER 2000 AND SQL DEVELOPER?

Hello Everyone.I am new to oracle and want to know the difference between developer 2000 and sql developer in oracle.Pls?

Developer 2000 is an application for making webforms that will be served on an Application Server, and accessed by the end users through an applet in their webbrowser.
SQL Developer is a tool for administrating and manipulating data and structure of your database. Like a GUI version of SQL*Plus, not advisable for end users.

How Oracle ASCP and Inventory are integrated ,what are the Integration poin

Hi All Gurus,
Can any one tell me..
How Oracle ASCP and Inventory are integrated ,what are the Integration point of these modules ...?
Thanks,
Satyam

Here is a simplistic explanation on the the integration.
When you launch data collection from the ASCP side, Oracle launches a Refresh Snapshot process that gathers the latest inventory (and other modules) information into Snapshots. Snapshots are like materialized views. Then the Planning Data Pull is launched. That process pulls information from these snapshots into the ASCP side.
The following inventory information comes over to ASCP
Item master data (such as order modifiers, planning exception sets etc. )
item categories
Onhand quantities (including consigned invetory quantities) in nettable locations
subinventories
reservations
safety stocks
forecasts
item planners
Quantity in receiving or in transit
Hope this answers your question

Apex and SQL Developer

A coworker that works in Oracle told me today that he heard that a future release of SQL Developer was going to be integrated with Apex.
Is that correct? If so, does anyone know how the two products will be integrated?
Thanks, Tony

Hi Tony,
I wouldn't think so, because SQL Developer is done with a completely different development language (Java) then APEX is (PL/SQL). I think it goes more into the other direction, you will see more APEX related features in SQL Developer. The current APEX reports and the deployment feature in SQL Developer are just the beginning.
But what do I know, I'm not from Oracle...

Remote debugging with APEX and SQL Developer

Hi,
I have problems concerning breakpoints within my SQL Packages I want to debug.
I want to force SQL-Developer to suspend execution of a function, so I can get forward step by step.
The SQL-Developer do not stop executing at the breakpoints I set in the Package.
The message I get is the following (on SQL-Developer side):
Debugger accepted connection from remote process on port 4000.
Processing 110 classes that have already been prepared...
Finished processing prepared classes.
Debugger disconnected from remote process.
Seems to me, that the process runs into the debug-mode but leave without stopping at a given breakpoint??
Do anybody have an idea how to solve it?
We use Oracle 10.2.0.3.0, SQL Developer 1.5.1 and APEX 3.1.2.
The Package-function I want to debug runs on another Oracle database as the APEX application.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Norbert

Hi Carsten,
now I have done a further step. I can debug a remote PL/SQL-Package through APEX, but now I get an exception when the program execution jumps back to the APEX PL/SQL-Package.
My APEX-Page-Process looks like this:
BEGIN
dbms_debug_jdwp.connect_tcp(host => 'IP-ADDRESS', port => '4201');
APEX_TEST_PKG.remoteDebug;
dbms_debug_jdwp.disconnect;
END;The procedure APEX_TEST_PKG.remoteDebug looks like this (located on the APEX-DB):
PROCEDURE startRemoteDebug
AS
    v_string    VARCHAR2(50)   := '';
BEGIN
    [email protected](host => 'IP-ADDRESS', port => '4000',
             option_flags => dbms_debug_jdwp.connect_defer_suspension);
    v_string := [email protected];
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(v_string);
    [email protected];
END remoteDebug; The procedure REMOTE_TEST_PKG.testFunc looks like this (located on the Remote-DB):
FUNCTION testFunc RETURN VARCHAR2
AS
    v_string    VARCHAR2(50)   := '';
BEGIN
    v_string := 'Test';
RETURN v_string;
END testFunc; When I start the debug session without the option dbms_debug_jdwp.connect_defer_suspension, I get an exception Oracle.EXCEPTION_ORA_604.
Starting the debug session with the above mentioned option, I am able to debug the remote function.
But now I get an exception when the executor tries leaving the remote function going back to the invoking function. With the debugger I can step over the return-statment successfully and the debugger steps on the next line END testFunc;. On this line I get the exception above
Exception breakpoint occurred at line -1 of PBREAK.pls.
$Oracle.Builtin.EXCEPTION_USER:
Exception breakpoint occurred at line -1 of PBREAK.pls.
$Oracle.Builtin.EXCEPTION_USER: I tried another way where I get now exception and where I can step through my functions in APEX, descending to functions in the remote db and going back to APEX.
For this case I put the debug-statements in remote function:
FUNCTION testFunc RETURN VARCHAR2
AS
    v_string    VARCHAR2(50)   := '';
BEGIN
    dbms_debug_jdwp.connect_tcp(host => 'IP-ADDRESS', port => '4000');
    v_string := 'Test';
    dbms_debug_jdwp.disconnect;
RETURN v_string;
END testFunc; But I have no idea why it doesn't work properly starting the remote debug session in the apex procedure.
Regards
Michael

SQL Report not showing data - available in SQL Workshop and SQL Developer

I am having an issue with developing a SQL Report in APEX 3.2.1. I run the code in both SQL developer and SQL Workshop and I get data pulled back (both against my development environment). When I run the same code in a SQL Report region, it returns no data available. Does anyone have any idea what would be causing this? Other regions on the page accessing different tables in the same schema return data without issue. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Freddie

Could you explain the last comment a bit more. Here is a bit more info just in case I touch on the info with it. The db schema is BPAMGR, the Workspace is BPAMGR. We use the same schema for all of our reporting. All of our tables are in the same schema. We don't use any tables outside of this schema. Our APEX workspace has been associated to only this schema. The tables are able to be queried by SQL Workshop in the same APEX instance that the report application is under.

SQL DEVELOPER integration/setup with SUBVERSION (SVN)

Hi All,
Can any one kindly forward/explain me the integration process of SQL Developer with SUBVERSION (SVN). I found the following link with a tutorial on its usage but not its installation/setup/integration process. http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/08-jul/o48sql.html
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Aj

Well, first of all you need to know what subversion is and what is tne purpose of use a data repository like this. If you understand the filosphy of SVN you get almost all you need. May be this links will be useful for you: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/, http://www.germane-software.com/~ser/R_n_R/subversion.html, http://www.owlnet.rice.edu/~comp314/svn.html
Next you need to know that SQLDeveloper may integrate with subversion in two forms:
1. Creating a new repository to maintain your code: Menu Versioning -> Createnew repository
2. Using a created repository and importing files: Menu Versioning -> import files -> select repository -> select files
May be this few words be useful for you, good luck!

satish.pWith the caveat (as already pointed out by Srini in this thread) that no Oracle product has ever been certified on any "home" edition of any version of Oracle ...
If I were looking to download any product, I'd start by going to that company's web site (like, www.oracle.com) and look for a tab or link called "download". I'll bet if you did that, you'd find all sorts of goodies.
But, again, since you are dealing with a "home" edition of Windows, you'll need to start by installing a virtual machine product -- VM Ware's "VMworkstation" or "VMplayer", or Oracle's VirtualBox. Then you can create a virtual machine running a supported OS. Oracle's own Linux (derived from Red Hat Linux) is also free.

Creating A New Oracle Database And Sql Developer

Hi,
I'm a newbie to Oracle and and a not so newbie to Sql Server and Visual Studio.
I am trying to learn Oracle on my local machine. I want to create a new Oracle Database and start learning from there.
I have downloaded sql developer, the data modeler, and the Oracle Client. Could someone please provide some guidance on how to create a Oracle Database?
From the responses, it appears that none of the items I mentioned actually creates a database. Sql Server provides a free download, also a developer version for a minimal fee. What specific Oracle product would be best to provide this type of service?
Thanks,
Mark

Edited by: user8948230 on Jan 7, 2010 9:50 AMIn addition to downloading and installing the database software to create a database, might I also suggest you start getting familiar with the documentation.
Learning where to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
Go to tahiti.oracle.com. Drill down to your product and version.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab you will find the complete documentation library.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there.
Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
Do the same with the Utilities manual.
You don't have to read the above in depth. They are reference manuals. Just get familiar with what is there to be referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
After you have familiarized yourself with what is available, read the "2-Day DBA" manual to help get you started.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
- Look in your alert log and find all the non-default initialization parms listed at instance startup. Then read up on each one of them in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.

Data Miner and SQL Developer

Is there any way to use the Data Miner 10.2.0.3.1 as an extension to SQL Developer 1.1.3.
Any hints/comments are appreciated!

Hi,
We should have a new extension in a month or so.
In the meanwhile, you can generate code from Data Miner directly and copy/load it into SQLDeveloper, or use JDeveloper.
Thanks, Mark
