Authorisation for WorkBench Developer

Hi mates,
Which SAP Template can I use to accomplish the design of a role that gives
   1) FULL Access to Adminstrator Workbench where he can do the data loads as well as design/maintain/delete objects in RSA1
   2) While having a full authorization in RSA1, he should not be able to execute the queries and view the data in BEx(though he can view the data in the InfoCubes)
   Prompt reply would very much be appreciated

Hi John,
Go through this link. It may helpful to you.

Recipe workbench for packaging development purpose

hi
i am looking for information about using recipe workbench for packaging development.

Anand,
We have set up 20 different packaging specification types, each with its own property tree. All of our current and in-development packaging is contained within RM. You will want to use the specification workbench to manage your types and the properties you need to capture.
How RM interacts with other modules can be very complex. There is an existing EHS/QM interface which can be used to create incoming inspection plans for receipt at a loading dock. We weren't happy with the default and did some custom development to make the interface work better for us.
If you use RM for recipe development, you can use your packaging specifications as inputs and outputs to general and site recipes - there's a lot of configuration involved. If you transform those recipes, then the packaging specifications will link to materials and appear in the master recipes. Also, any QM data entered into those recipes will become part of the in-process inspection plan at the plant.
Another interface point is using Trial Management. We have not activated this yet, but it can be used for managing any testing, including packaging development. Stability studies may be useful as well.
Sorry to be so general, but I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly what information you need. You may want to check the SAP OKP (online knowledge products) in Service Marketplace related to RM, as well as the standard documentation available.
Keep me posted.

Hardware requirement for CE7.1 for the development purpose

Experts,
How to calculate the hardware requirement for using CE7.1 for the development purpose? Do you have some parameters or guidelines for it?
We will be using CE7.1 for the development of EP contents, Web dynpro, Web services and Guided procedures.
We need to calculate minimum hardware requirement for this purpose, but could not find the authorised document from SAP.
I searched in the SDN. It is available for NetWeaver 7.0 but not for CE7.1.
Any hints will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
sudeep

An Aid For BSP Development

An Aid For BSP Development
Hi,
I have developed a small tool as an aid to BSP Development.
I describe it briefly here.
You can see screen shots on www.sapprogrammer.com. Click on BSP Find.
It turns out that the tool is even more useful than I figured as I wrote it.
It took over a year to write at weekends and in the evenings.
As it got more and more powerful I saw that it was enabling me to do things I could not otherwise have done.
I also believe it would be extremely useful to extend it in some ways that seem to offer themselves naturally now.
So heres the description:
Find a String in a BSP
(A BSP means here : The BSP in SE80 + its models defined in the BSP + its application class.)
The program runs thru a BSP and its Models and its Application Class and looks for whatever string of characters you require.
It produces a legible list showing the places you should go to find that string. (See screen shots).
Advantages:
This cuts down work time as a developer enormously.
In addition, if you seek an empty string the program will list the whole BSP. Thus you can print your BSP.
Extensions:
I have since extended it to run over a range of BSPs. You cant run over many because it takes too long but you can run over 2 or 3.
What I should like to do now:
The program proves to be so useful I should like to see if it is possible to:
* Integrate it to any extent into the ABAP Workbench. It is purposely completely separate at the moment.
* Use it to compare BSP Versions. We have just received Service Packs and a large BSP has been changed. It would be good to have a tool to show the differences between our copy of the old version and the new one.
Would anyone be interested in cooperation on this? Its probably too much work for me alone. In particular the workbench question would presumably require cooperation with SAP itself?
Kind regards
David Lawn

There is no doubt that this is a very excellent tool. We have had this problem many times before. Often we can see in the HTTP trace the error, but have no way to easily find the source in the server. What we currently do is a hack: we download the source, and search on disk. Very clumsy. In this sense, we can clearly see the value in this tool. I can only support David in saying that this is a very useful tool.
From the side of the SAP, we can unfortunately not help. I will forward you append to the workbench group to again check. But we have to see the reality that our team is already overcommited for Netweaver '05 development.
Which does not prevent you from just running this program directly from SE38 (or even better, assign it a transaction code). This does not reduce the true value of the tool.
If there are people interested in building a small group to help David, it will be good, and I see a lot of interest. Important it that you just clear the licensing aspects. I think that using the forum for communication is ok (if you don't use emails).
regards, brian

Regd Custom Workbench Development

Hi Experts
I am a novice to SAP ABAP. I am trying to create a workbench in terms of Object Navigator. I want few answers regarding its UI working. In the UI the picture that is getting displayed on the right of Menu tree (ABAP Workbench Development Picture) is resizing on expansion or collapse. And the subscreen area used for holding the screens are perfectly fitting screens of any resolution
Whats the coding behind this? I analysed the coding related to object navigator but could not find any suitable answers. If someone can help me out it will be of great use since that one thing is spoiling the look and feel of my whole development
Anticipating replies
Thanks and Regards
Anand Sekar

Check out Image in Custom Control
In short: use a creen with custom control object, set resize properties on control

Migration Verifier Tool for SQL Developer Migrations?

Hi all,
The old Migration Workbench has an optional add on verification tool to verify migrations to Oracle.
I am looking for a similar migration verifier tool for the SQL Developer migration process.
Does one currently exist for SQL Developer migration tools?
Regards,
Ben Prusinski

Hi Ben,
The old migration verifier seems to be at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//dmv/index.html
Sue Harper (Product Manager) would be the person to comment further probably through SQLDeveloper statement of direction:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/sql_developer/files/sqldeveloperstatementofdirection.htm
I do not see anything there.
There is a tools->database diff wizard which I have not looked into in detail and I doubt that applies for migrations.

GeoRaptor 3.0 for SQL Developer 3.0 and 2.1 has now been released

Folks,
I am pleased to announce that, after 5 months of development and testing, a new release of GeoRaptor for SQL Developer 2.1 and 3.0 is now available.
GeoRaptor for SQL Developer 3 is available via the SQL Developer Update centre. GeoRaptor 3 for SQL Developer 2.1 is being made available
via a download fro the GeoRaptor website.
No release notes have been compiled as the principal developer (oops, that's me!) is currently busy doing real work for a change (another 3 weeks), earning a living
and keeping the wolves at bay. More extensive notes (with images) will be compiled when I get back. (Unless anyone is offering! See next.)
We are still looking for people to:
1. Provide translations of the English dialog menus etc.
2. Write more extensive user documentation. If you use a particular part of GeoRaptor a lot and think
you have found out all its functionality and quirks, contact us and offer to write a few pages of
documentation on it. (Open Office or Microsoft Word is fine.) Easiest way to do this is to simply
make screen captures and annotate with text.
3. Conduct beta testing.
Here are the things that are in the new release.
New functionality:
Overhaul of Validation Functionality.
1. User can specify own validation SELECT SQL as long as it returns three required columns. The SQL is thus totally editable.
2. Validation update code now allows user to associate a PL/SQL function with an error number which is applied in the UPDATE SQL.
3. UPDATE SQL can use WHERE clause of validation SELECT SQL (1) to update specific errors.
   NOTE: The generated UPDATE statement can be manually edited. It is NEVER run by GeoRaptor. To run any UPDATE, copy the statement
   to the clipboard and run in an appropriate SQL Worksheet session within SQL Developer.
4. Main validation table allows:
   a. Sorting (click on column header) and
   b. Filtering.
   c. Copying to Clipboard via right mouse click sub menu of:
      - Geometry's SDO_ELEM_INFO array constructor.
      - SDO_GEOMETRY constructor
      - Error + validation string.
   d. Access to Draw/Zoom functions which were previously buttons.
   e. Added a new right mouse click menu "Show Feature's Individual Errors" that gathers up all the errors
      it can process - along with the ring / element that is host to the error (if it can) - and displays
      them in the Attribute/Geometry tabs at the bottom of the Map Window (where "Identify" places its results).
      The power of this will be evident to all those who have wanted a way of stepping through errors in a geometry.
   f. Selected rows can now be deleted (select rows: press <DELETE> key or right mouse click>Delete).
   g. Table now has only one primary key column, and has a separate error column holding the actual error code.
   h. Right mouse click men added to table menu to display description of error in the new column (drawn from Oracle documentation)
   i. Optimisations added to improve performance for large error lists.
5. Functionality now has its own validation layer that is automatically added to the correct view.
   Access to layer properties via button on validation dialog or via normal right mouse click in view/layer tree.
Improved Rendering Options.
1. Linestring colour can now be random or drawn from column in database (as per Fill and Point colouring)
2. Marking of SDO_GEOMETRY objects overhauled.
   - Ability to mark or LABEL vertices/points of all SDO_GEOMETRY types with coordinate identifier and
     option {X,Y} location. Access is via Labelling tab in layer>properties. Thus, coordinate 25 of a linestring
     could be shown as: <25> or {x,y} or <25> {x,y}
   - There is a nice "stacked" option where the coordinate {x,y} can be written one line below the id.
   - For linestrings and polygons the <id> {x,y} label can be oriented to the angle between the vectors or
     edges that come in, and go out of, a vertex. Access is via "Orient" tick box in Labelling tab.
   - Uses Tools>Preferences>GeoRaptor>Visualisation>SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY bracket around x,y string.
3. Start point of linestring/polygon and all other vertices can be marked with user selectable point marker
   rather than previously fixed markers.
4. Can now set a NULL point marker by selecting "None" for point marker style pulldown menu.
5. Positioning of the arrow for linestring/polygons has extra options:
   * NONE
   * START    - All segments of a line have the arrow positioned at the start
   * MIDDLE   - All segments of a line have the arrow positioning in the middle.
   * END      - All segments of a line have the arrow positioning in the END.
   * END_ONLY - Only the last segment has an arrow and at its end.
ScaleBar.
1. A new graphic ScaleBar option has been added for the map of each view.
   For geographic/geodetic SRIDs distances are currently shown in meters;
   For all SRIDs an attempt is made to "adapt" the scaleBar units depending
   on the zoom level. So, if you zoom right in you might get the distance shown
   as mm, and as you zoom out, cm/m/km as appropriate.
2. As the scaleBar is drawn, a 1:<DEMONINATOR> style MapScale value is written
   to the map's right most status bar element.
3. ScaleBar and MapScale can be turned off/on in View>Properties right mouse
   click menu.
Export Capabilities.
1. The ability to export a selection from a result set table (ie result of
   executing ad-hoc SQL SELECT statement to GML, KML, SHP/TAB (TAB file
   adds TAB file "wrapper" over SHP) has been added.
2. Ability to export table/view/materialised view to GML, KML, SHP/TAB also
   added. If no attributes are selected when exporting to a SHP/TAB file, GeoRaptor
   automatically adds a field that holds a unique row number.
3. When exporting to KML:
   * one can optionally export attributes.
   * Web sensitive characters < > & etc for KML export are replaced with > < & etc.
   * If a column in the SELECTION or table/view/Mview equals "name" then its value is
     written to the KML tag <name> and not to the list of associated attributes.
     - Similarly for "description" -> <description> AND "styleUrl" -> <styleUrl>
4. When exporting to GML one can optionally export attributes in FME or OGR "flavour".
5. Exporting Measured SDO_GEOMETRY objects to SHP not supported until missing functionality
   in GeoTools is corrected (working with GeoTools community to fix).
6. Writing PRJ and MapInfo CoordSys is done by pasting a string into appropriate export dialog box.
   Last value pasted is remembered between sessions which is useful for users who work with a single SRID.
7. Export directory is remembered between sessions in case a user uses a standard export directory.
8. Result sets containing MDSYS.SDO_POINT and/or MDSYS.VERTEX_TYPE can also be written to GML/KML/SHP/TAB.
   Example:
   SELECT a.geom.sdo_point as point
     FROM (SELECT sdo_geometry(2002,null,sdo_point_type(1,2,null),sdo_elem_info_array(1,2,1),sdo_ordinate_array(1,1,2,2)) as geom
             FROM DUAL) a;
   SELECT mdsys.vertex_type(a.x,a.y,a.z,a.w,a.v5,a.v6,a.v7,a.v8,a.v9,a.v10,a.v11,a.id) as vertex
     FROM TABLE(mdsys.sdo_util.getVertices(mdsys.sdo_geometry(2002,null,null,sdo_elem_info_array(1,2,1),sdo_ordinate_array(1,1,2,2)))) a;
9. A dialog appears at the end of each export which details (eg total) what was exported when the exported recordset/table contains more
   than on shape type. For example, if you export only points eg 2001/3001 from a table that also contains multipoints eg 2005/3005 then
   the number of points exported, and multipoints skipped will be displayed.
10. SHP/TAB export is "transactional". If you set the commit interval to 100 then only 100 records are held in memory before writing.
    However, this does not currently apply to the associated DBASE records.
11. SHP/TAB export supports dBase III, dBase III + Memo, dBase IV and dBase IV + Memo.
    Note: Memo allows text columns > 255 characters to be exported. Non-Memo formats do not and any varchar2 columns will be truncated
    to 255 chars. Some GIS packages support MEMO eg Manifold GIS, some do not.
12. Note. GeoRaptor does not ensure that the SRID of SDO_GEOMETRY data exported to KML is in the correct Google Projection.
    Please read the Oracle documentation on how to project your data is this is necessary. An example is:
    SELECT OBJECTID,
           CODIGO as name,
           NOME as description,
           MI_STYLE,
           SDO_CS.TRANSFORM(shape,'USE_SPHERICAL',4055) as shape
      FROM MUB.REGIONAL;
13. NOTE: The SHP exporter uses the Java Topology Suite (JTS) to convert from SDO_GEOMETRY to the ESRI Shape format. JTS does not handle
    circular curves in SDO_GEOMETRY objects you must "stroke" them using sdo_util.arc_densify(). See the Oracle documentation on how
    to use this.
Miscellaneous.
1. Selection View - Measurement has been modified so that the final result only shows those geometry
   types that were actually measured.
2. In Layer Properties the Miscellaneous tab has been removed because the only elements in it were the
   Geometry Output options which have now been replaced by the new GML/KML/etc export capabilities.
3. Shapefile import's user entered tablename now checked for Oracle naming convention compliance.
4. Identify based on SDO_NN has been removed from GeoRaptor given the myriad problems that it seems to create across versions
   and partitioned/non-partitioned tables. Instead SDO_WITHIN_DISTANCE is now used with the actual search distance (see circle
   in map display): everything within that distance is returned.
5. Displaying/Not displaying embedded sdo_point in line/polygon (Jamie Keene), is now controlled by
   a preference.
6. New View Menu options to switch all layers on/off
7. Tools/Preferences/GeoRaptor layout has been improved.
8. If Identify is called on a geometry a new right mouse click menu entry has been added called "Mark" which
   has two sub-menus called ID and ID(X,Y) that will add the labeling to the selected geometry independently of
   what the layer is set to being.
9. Two new methods for rendering an SDO_GEOMETRY object in a table or SQL recordset have been added: a) Show geometry as ICON
   and b) Show geometry as THUMBNAIL. When the latter is chosen, the actual geometry is shown in an image _inside_ the row/column cell it occupies.
   In addition, the existing textual methods for visualisation: WKT, KML, GML etc have been collected together with ICON and THUMBNAIL in a new
   right mouse click menu.
10. Tables/Views/MViews without spatial indexes can now be added to a Spatial View. To stop large tables from killing rendering, a new preference
    has been added "Table Count Limit" (default 1,000) which controls how many geometry records can be displayed. A table without a spatial
    index will have its layer name rendered in Italics and will write a warning message in red to the status bar for each redraw. Adding an index
    which the layer exists will be recognised by GeoRaptor during drawing and switch the layer across to normal rendering.
Some Bug Fixes.
* Error in manage metadata related to getting metadata across all schemas
* Bug with no display of rowid in Identify results fixed;
* Some fixes relating to where clause application in geometry validation.
* Fixes bug with scrollbars on view/layer tree not working.
* Problem with the spatial networks fixed. Actions for spatial networks can now only be done in the
schema of the current user, as it could happen that a user opens the tree for another schema that
has the same network as in the user's schema. Dropping a drops only the network of the current connected user.
* Recordset "find sdo_geometry cell" code has been modified so that it now appears only if a suitable geometry object is
in a recordset. Please note that there is a bug in SQL Developer (2.1 and 3.0) that causes SQL Developer to not
register a change in selection from a single cell to a whole row when one left clicks at the left-most "row number"
column that is not part of the SELECT statements user columns, as a short cut to selecting a whole row. It appears
that this is a SQL Developer bug so nothing can be done about it until it is fixed. To select a whole row, select all
cells in the row.
* Copy to clipboard of SDO_GEOMETRY with M and Z values forgot has extraneous "," at the end.
* Column based colouring of markers fixed
* Bunch of performance improvements.
* Plus (happily) others that I can't remember!If you find any bugs register a bug report at our website.
If you want to help with testing, contact us at our website.
My thanks for help in this release to:
1. John O'Toole
2. Holger Labe
3. Sandro Costa
4. Marco Giana
5. Luc van Linden
6. Pieter Minnaar
7. Warwick Wilson
8. Jody Garnett (GeoTools bug issues)
Finally, when at the Washington User Conference I explained the willingness of the GeoRaptor Team to work
for some sort of integration of our "product" with the new Spatial extension that has just been released in SQL
Developer 3.0. Nothing much has come of that initial contact and I hope more will come of it.
In the end, it is you, the real users who should and will decide the way forward. If you have ideas, wishes etc,
please contact the GeoRaptor team via our SourceForge website, or start a "wishlist" thread on this forum
expressing ideas for future functionality and integration opportunities.

Thank you for this.
I have been messing around with this last few days, and i really love the feature to pinpoint the validation errors on map.
I has always been so annoying to try pinpoint these errors using some other GIS software while doing your sql.
I have stumbled to few bugs:
1. In "Validate geometry column" dialog checking option "Use DimInfo" actually still uses value entered in tolerance text box.
I found this because in my language settings , is the decimal operators
2. In "Validate geometry column" dialog textboxs showing sql, doesn't always show everything from long lines of text (clipping text from right)
3. In "Validate geometry column" dialog the "Create Update SQL" has few bugs:
- if you have selected multiple rows from results and check the "Use Selected Geometries" the generated IN-clause in SQL with have same rowid (rowid for first selected result) for all entries
Also the other generated IN clause in WHERE-clause is missing separator if you select more than one corrective function
4. "Validate geometry column" dialog stays annoyingly top most when using "Create Update SQL" dialog

Hey nani91191,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like you may simply need to authorize your computer with your Apple ID:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Authorize a computer to play iTunes Store purchases

Authorize a computer to play iTunes Store purchases: Choose Store > Authorize This Computer.
If you are using a Windows PC, you may need to turn on the menu bar to access the "Store" menu:

My mac pro says "It can't be synced because this computer is no longer authorised for purchased items that are on this iPad.

But when I de-authorise and then re-authorise it says it's already authorised and then the same window pops up saying "It can't be synced because this computer is no longer authorised for purchased items that are on this iPad.
Battled all day.
Removed the SC folder,
Checked iTunes log in is correct.
Checked Itunes is the same country.
Restarted both devices.
Tried different usb ports
Any ideas?

I found the solution to this problem
the apple service helped me actually
the best and the esiest way is to solve this problem :
create a new account (as an administator recomended)
Bonjour servises must be enabled ( go to control panel > administartive tools> sevices> Bounjour services (change the category to large icons if you dont see administartive tools )
install itunes
sign in
authorize
SYNC
it must sync normally
but if the meesage pops up that points on a particular items that could not be synced ( to ur itunes because you are not authorized for this items ) REMOVE THEM
creating a new user account shows the items wich dont let you sync your iPhone
after you REMOVE those **** items that were not authorised , you can go to your old user account and SYNC it as old kind time
was having this problem 2 weeks , and nothing helped except this was. not deleting the SC Info folder, now copying apple folder to some other mobile divce folder
REMEMBER the problem is in your iPhone , it is about the items that are in your iPhone
Thanks to Apple service
for anyone who needs othe heple you r welcome to ask
will hepl you with a pleassure cause i know how I felt this days:)

GeoRaptor 3.2.1 Released for SQL Developer 3.x

Spatialites!
After 6 months of development and testing, GeoRaptor 3.2.1 has been released for SQL Developer 3.x (tested on 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2). This release no longer supports SQL Developer 1.x or 2.x releases due to internal changes to the SQL Developer APIs.
GeoRaptor can be downloaded from the GeoRaptor project's sourceforge page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/georaptor and installed via Help>Check for Updates>Install from Local File. Installation via SQL Developer's update mechanism should be available soon.
The release notes for this release are:
* Fixed issues with validate geometry functionality in particular the update dialog box.
* Revamped "About GeoRaptor" form. Includes clickable URLs, links to mailing lists, version number listing, thanks to testers etc.
* Placed "About GeoRaptor" icon on GeoRaptor's map toolbar.
* SQL Developer NLS settings accessed: improvements in the display and entry and numeric data.
-- Tolerances in Spatial Layer properties will display with the NLS decimal separator eg 0,05.
     Some parts of GeoRaptor such as Validation that show and accept numbers have not been changed from when someone else modified the code.
     If you double click on the left MBR/right MBR icon in the map at the bottom, the current centre position will display according to the NLS settings.
     Editing the value to jump the map to that point works even with grouping separators and decimal separators being commas!
* Spatial Layer Draw has been modified to use NLS based decimal formatting.
* New geometry marking/labelling options have been added. In particular you can now label the vertices of a linestring/polygon with the following additional elements:
-- Cumulative length
-- Measure (M)
-- Z value
-- Labelling of vertices with <id>{X,Y} now also honours 3/4D geometries. If geometry has XYY then it will be labelled as {X,Y,Z} etc.
* You can also label each vector/segment of a linestring/polygon with:

* The font properties of the mark text can be changed independently of the feature label. This includes the offset and label position (CC, LL, UR etc).
* New feature labelling options have been provided:
-- First/middle/last vertex,
-- Any supplied sdo_point within a line/polygon's sdo_geometry object, or
-- Calculated by GeoRaptor on the client side using Java Topology Suite.
* Result sets now have the ability to:
-- Copy to clipboard all geometries across many rows and columns.
-- Display one or more (selected) geometries in a popup image window. This functionality is also available in the result set generated by an Identify command.
* New GeoRaptor Preferences:
-- Width and height in pixels of the new popup image window (displaying one or more geometry objects) can be set;
-- Colours of orphan, missing and correct metadata entries for Metadata Manager;
-- Prefixing with MDSYS for all currently supported spatial objects - sdo_geometry, sdo_point, sdo_elem_info, sdo_ordinates, sdo_dim_info - has been made an option.
-- There is now a new property called "Show Number Grouping Separator" in Tools>GeoRaptor>Visualisation.
     If it is ticked a number will be formatted with the thousands separator in Tools>Database>NLS eg 10000.000 will display as 10,000.000.
* Sdo_Geometry display of all spaces in text between elements of the sdo_geometry array have been removed.
   This was done mainly to compact the sdo_geometry strings so that they are as small as possible when displaying or copying to clipboard.
* Help pages added to the following dialogs with more to follow:
-- Metadata Manager,
-- Shapefile Importer and
-- Layer Properties dialogs.
* GeoRaptor menu entries renamed. New "Manage All Metadata" entry added to View>GeoRaptor menu.
* Spatial Index creation dialog now supports additional index parameters and parallel build settings.
* Metadata Manager overhauled:
a. Shows:
     1. Metadata entries which have no underlying oracle object (orphan)
     2. Metadata entries for existing underlying objects (existing case)
     3. Database objects with sdo_geometry for which no metadata entry exists (new)
b. All orphan/existing/missing colours for (a) can be set via Preferences>GeoRaptor>Visualisation
c. All actions for main (bottom) metadata table are in a single right mouse click menu.
     Some entries will only appear if a single row is selection (metadata copy), others (delete and copy to clipboard) will appear for one or more.
d. Can now switch between open connections to modify metadata of other objects in schemas other than the starting object.
e. Buttons revamped.
* Tab/Shapefile export:
a. Export now supports NULL valued columns. Can be exported as an empty string (if DBase override in GeoRaptor Preferences is ticked) or
     as a predefined value eg NULL date => 1900-01-01 (set in new GeoRatptor Import/Export Preferences).
b. Some work attempted on export of NLS strings (still not corrected).
c. Objects with no rows now correctly processed.
* Shapefile Import
-- Bug relating to Linux file names corrected.
* Fixed issue (identified by John O'Toole) with spatial index underlying a view not being used in map display.
* Reinstated sdo_nn as the principal method for Identify (requested by John O'Toole).
* Fixed problem with handling single click zoom in and out in GeoRaptor map etc.
* Fixed problem with rendering lines from database item (identified by Vladimir Pek).The new "About GeoRaptor" should be read by all people installing GeoRaptor.
Please, please consider registering your email address with our private email list so that we can get a feel for the sorts of people downloading and installing GeoRaptor.
Please consider helping us with documentation or the internationalisation via translating properties files from English to your native language.
GeoRaptor is written and maintained by people who use SQL Developer and Spatial every day but we don't pretend we know everything that users want: please let us know via our feature request page at SourceForge.
We don't get paid for what we do so are always looking for additional help.
Here are some of the requests we have had for improvements:
1. MySQL access
2. WMS access;
3. Ability to import shapefile data into an existing table;
4. Ability to processing multiple shapefiles into separate tables (current version can import one or more into a single target table);
5. Ability to export/import layer definitions to give to others;
6. Support for non-English character sets for varchar exports to shapefiles.Some are relatively simply, some require a lot of engineering work. For the latter, we are considering alternative funding methods to the currently completely free development approach.
Thanks to the following for their invaluable assistance:
Holger Labe, Germany
John O'Toole, Ireland
Vladimir Pek, Czech Republic
Pieter Minnaar, Holland
Olaf Iseeger, Germany
Sandro Costa, Brazil;
Marco Giana, Australia.regards

Simon,
I will admit, I almost never use SQL Developer. I have been a long time Toad user, but for this tool, I fumbled around a bit and got everything up and running quickly.
That said, I tried the new GeoRaptor tool using this tutorial (which is I think is close enough to get the jist). http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/georaptor/index.php?title=A_Gentle_Introduction:_Create_Table,_Metadata_Registration,_Indexing_and_Mapping
As I stumble around it, I'll try and leave some feedback, and probably ask some rather stupid questions.
Thanks for the effort,
Bryan
