BUG: SQL Developer no longer identifies invalid views version 1.1.3.2766

Question

I have a sql script which 'CREATE OR REPLACE FORCE VIEW' a view but unlike SQLDeveloper 1.1R2 which I am amending in a third party editor and loading via sqlplus the view is created with "Warning: View created with compilation errors."
In 1.1R2 this would have displayed a view icon with a red cross in the navigator bar. This is no longer the case. All views appear to be valid.

Answer 1

It appears that SQL Developer is not handling the INTERVAL data type when a NULL value is present, e.g: -
This works OK:
SELECT CAST('-0 0:0:0.400000000' AS INTERVAL DAY(3) TO SECOND(0))
FROM dual;
This does not:
SELECT CAST(NULL AS INTERVAL DAY(3) TO SECOND(0))
FROM dual;
As a work around you can simply TO_CHAR the column:
SELECT source,
destination,
comments,
flags,
owner,
job_name,
job_creator,
client_id,
global_uid,
program_owner,
program_name,
job_type,
job_action,
number_of_arguments,
schedule_owner,
schedule_name,
start_date,
repeat_interval,
end_date,
job_class,
enabled,
auto_drop,
restartable,
state,
job_priority,
run_count,
max_runs,
failure_count,
max_failures,
retry_count,
last_start_date,
TO_CHAR(last_run_duration),
next_run_date,
TO_CHAR(schedule_limit),
TO_CHAR(max_run_duration),
logging_level,
stop_on_window_close,
instance_stickiness,
system,
job_weight,
nls_env
FROM dba_scheduler_jobs a;
