Code searching in sql developer

Hi, I was wondering how I could search through all my packages/procedures for a particular piece of text?

I don't think there is anything built in.. You can run a query against the source text (although it may take a while)
SELECT * FROM sys.all_source WHERE text LIKE '%search_for_me%' You can narrow it down to a specific user or object by changing the where clause.
However, the quickest is probably to just grep for the code in your source directories if you have it on a unix box.

Code Templates in SQL Developer 2.1

Hi all!
Looks like this feature does not work at all. Even followed the instructions from Sue's book page 99:
In SQL Developer 2.1, simply start typing the code from the
template, and the full code is displayed in the code insight drop list. Select the code
to add it to the SQL Worksheet.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Radu

Hi,
Really disappointed to see that code template dont work in v 2.1. If it is considered that code insight can replace ctr + shift + T than this is wrong assumption.
ctr + shift + T was so easy to use. Also the code insight dont pop up for templates having PL/SQL blocks. For examples
If a template T1 is like
BEGIN
<Some processing statements>
END;
than T1 can not be used as template in 2.1 unlike 1.5.
Hope the issue is fixed very soon else users would prefer to use 1.5.

Code Insight Issue - SQL Developer 1.1 (1.1.0.23 Build Main 23-64)

Dear SQL Developer Team,
I have a slight issue with the Code Insight.
I have created a package with three procedures
create or replace PACKAGE PACKAGE1 AS
procedure test1 (inpar varchar2);
procedure test2 (inpar varchar2);
procedure test3 (inpr varchar2);
END PACKAGE1;
When I try and reference the procedures in the package code insight only shows two procedures (see this link for the screenshot http://i12.tinypic.com/3zqbuiv.gif)
Any ideas ?

Sorry Chris, been tied up. looked at this
1. created a PTN table. This is the DDL export of that table. Range partition on date.
-- DBMS_METADATA was unable to use TABLE_EXPORT to generate sql. Now trying to use TABLE.
CREATE TABLE "HR"."TABLE1"
( "ID" NUMBER,
"HIREDATE" DATE
) PCTFREE 10 PCTUSED 40 INITRANS 1 MAXTRANS 255
STORAGE(

2. Export from Resultset tables in query. As insert statements
REM INSERTING into TABLE1
Insert into TABLE1 ("ID","HIREDATE") values (1,to_date('12-DEC-06','DD-MON-RR'));
Insert into TABLE1 ("ID","HIREDATE") values (2,to_date('21-JAN-07','DD-MON-RR'));
I'm also getting the others working well too. I 'm running the latest version that we are about to release a patch on so it should be good when it comes out.

Forum Search Tool - SQL Developer - Wrong location?

In the Forum Search - Category or Forum, the SQL Developer appears in Database division.
I think he should appear in the Developers Tools division....

Another way of getting to the correct forum is to use a feature's portal. Might be helpful to know that route when unsure of which forum.
For example, in this case you could
start at Oracle Technet homepage portal
go to either
- Database product portal OR
- Developer tools portal
both will point to the SQL Developer portal
which points to the SQL Developer
This is simply to indicate that there are several different, legitimate, paths to a forum - including through the Dev Tools as well as through the Database area.
My point being that no matter where we put the forum, basic taxonomy principals indicate that someone will have a legitimate argument to move it somewhere else. Thus fulfilling the basic human need to require politics in any and every area of existence. <g>

Code obfuscation using SQL Developer

Hello all,
In SQL Developer, it's possible to obfuscate a single file using "refactoring->obfuscate". Is there a way to do this for a number of files at once, either within the IDE, or more practically, at the command line.
Regards
Femi.
Edited by: 995332 on Mar 21, 2013 9:42 AM

Hi Femi,
SQL Developer does provide command line support for some UI features like Unit Testing and Formatting (look in the sqldeveloper\bin directory for the scripts), but not unfortunately for the Refactoring feature. That is available only from the UI.

SQL Developer 2.1.1.64 - code template does not work in Windows Vista

I have been trying to import a code template in SQL Developer 2.1.1.64 / Windows Vista using the following steps:
1. Import template (xml) file using "Preferences > Database > SQL Formatter > Import..." option. Pressed "OK" button.
2. Clicked on "Preferences > Database > SQL Formatter > Oracle Formatting".
I expected to see the new profile under "Profile" drop-down-list-box, but it does not appear there.
I tried putting the template (xml) file under various locations, including:
(a) C:\Users\<user_name>\
(b) C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\SQL Developer\
Please let me know any suggestions that you may have.
Thanks in advance.

I got it to work. In step 1 that I mentioned, "OK" button should not be pressed; go to step 2 without pressing "OK" button.

SQL DEVELOPER 3EA1 -- Doesn't show my Code Template ?

Hi
I wander if someone could help to workout with Code template in SQL Developer 3.0EA1 (0.5.97)
I have many code template in my previous release 3.0 ( Tools --> Preferences --> Database --> SQL Editor Code Template ). When I was typing first word of Code Template, It was appearing but this is not the case in 3.0EA1 , It shows me default Code Template not the one I am looking for.
Thanks
Hemesh.

They have been removed:
http://vadimtropashko.wordpress.com/2011/10/11/documentation-code-snippets/
Here is how you get your programed code template back. In the worksheet invoke your code template the "official" way, that is via abbreviation. Run the statement. Now it's in SQL History and should be shown in code insight.

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 consumes a lot of memory

Sql developer consumes a lot of RAM (around 100 MB) few minutes after start of application . any tips to reduce this?

This is usually due to the caching of database objects on support of code insight and is dependent on the number of objects in the database. As documented in the readme.txt in the sqldeveloper home directory, you can disable code insight.
2.1 To disable Code Insight
Run SQL Developer from a command line using the following statement:
Windows : sqldeveloper -J-Dsdev.insight=false
Linux or Mac: Run sh sqldeveloper -J-Dsdev.insight=false
or edit sqldeveloper.conf and add "AddVMOption -J-Dsdev.insight=false"

Package, Function in SQL Developer

DB 10gR2
SQL Developer 2.1.1.64
I can see the following package's code on my SQL Developer
create or replace PACKAGE zero AS
FUNCTION one (P_TABLE VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2;
FUNCTION two RETURN VARCHAR2;
END zero;
But I can't find function one or function two on the left hand side navigation. Why can't I see the codes for both of the function? and how do I see the codes of those function?
Thanks

You are seeing the package specification. To see the body (what you call "codes"), you should expand the package's navigator node and click on the body exposed just below.
Hope that helps,

SQL/Developer & Resource Usage.

A quick comparison with Toad on XP.
Both software connected to same database running a blank sql window.
Toad = 30MB
SQL/Developer =60MB
Usage of SQL/Developer see memory usage rocket to 180MB.
Shutdown of SQL/Developer closes down the process but the PC still runs slow and requires a reboot.
Nice product but what's the deal guys ?

It's the insight stuff.
You shold turn off sql insight as documented here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/project_raptor/ea6_relnotes.html.
<snip>
We now have a command line way to turn off code insight. This is very useful for users who access larger databases. To disable Code insight, startup SQL Developer from the command line using:
On Windows: sqldeveloper -J-Dsdev.insight=false
On Linux or Mac: Run sh sqldeveloper -J-Dsdev.insight=false
or edit sqldeveloper.conf and add "AddVMOption -J-Dsdev.insight=false".

Vote/Comment on SQL Developer Add-in: CopyAsHtml

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is against any rules, but I wanted to make the SQL Developer community aware of this feature request and would ask you to simply add a vote/comment on this if you used this feature from SQL Developer 3 to allow you to copy code out of SQL Developer with full syntax highlighting, font, and indentations into 3rd party programs.
Vote here:

Ok its working again... Initial build of SQL Developer 1.5 (5338) was not showing the geom layers on the georaptor....
I am happy to report that with SQL Developer 1.5.1 (5440) Georaptor layers on the Spatial view are working again.
Thanks to the anonymous developers that fixed it!

Sql Developer - View source code of procedures, functions & packages in another schema

Our developers need the ability to view procedures, function, packages etc. in the production database (using SQL DEVELOPER). They don't have access to sign on as the owner of these
objects in Production. They must use their own limited access UserID for this purpose.
This limited access UserID has been granted select privilege on DBA_SOURCE & DBA_OBJECTS. The developers need the ability to view the source of these object via
the tree view in SQL DEV. They should be able to click on "other users" in the SQL DEV tree view and see a listing of the owner schema objects. Then they should
be able to select the desired object and view the source code. These developers are used to using GUI interfaces. Selecting from DBA_SOURCE would not be an
option for them.
I understand that if the limited user is granted SELECT ANY DICTIONARY or SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE then this functionality will work. The problem is those
privileges/roles provide much more access than should be granted to these limited access users. Granting DBA to these users is also not an option.
In TOAD and other end-user tools this functionality works when only select privilege on DBA_SOURCE & DBA_OBJECTS has been granted. We need this same functionality
in SQL DEV.
While searching this forum and the internet, I see that other installations have this same issue.
Please enhance SQL Developer with this functionality.
Thank you, ellen

Just to double check that I'm interpreting the problem correctly, is the following true:
select * from all_objects where object_name = 'DBA_SOURCE'
returns nothing
select * from dba_source where name = your PL/SQL module
returns all the code

SOLVED: SQL Developer Code Compilation with warnings

Hi, I think I found one bug in sql developer.
I have one pl/sql package, that contains a lot of code. In the previous SQL Developer releases (prior to 1.2) when you compile the code, first appears the errors and then the warnings. Because of some type conversion in my sql statements i have more than 20 warnings, and now i cannot see the errors (i think that they will appear if i'm able to increase this "20 messages" limit). I was searching for some option in SQL Developer to increase the number of displayed warnings or errors (or turn off the warnings) but i cannot find such parameter.
Is this a bug, or i'm missing something ?
PS: because of this, i'm not able to compile my package with sql developer, and i'm compiling via sqlplus.
null

Yes, you're missing something: the forum's search feature.
See:
compile with many warnings causes compiler dont show errors correctly
Compiling an invalid packagebody without errormessage
SQL Developer says Compile sucessful but it is not

SQL Developer 1.5.4.59.40 - IO Exception: Undefined Error VENDOR CODE 17002

Hi All.
I hope someone can help.
I have recently installed Oracle XE on my Vista Ultimate laptop and it is up and running with no apparent problems. I then connected to the HR schema on XE with no problems using SQL Developer 1.2.1.3213 (OLD Version). I noticed that SQL Developer 1.5.4.59.40 (NEW version) was available and downloaded it (the offering without JDK included) and renamed the "C:\Program Files\SQLDeveloper" folder holding the older version to "C:\Program Files\SQLDeveloper_Orig" and placed the new version of SQL Developer in the Prog Files directory to give "C:\Program Files\SQLDeveloper".
I then ran SQLDeveloper.exe (NEW) and when requested gave the JDK path as "C:\Program Files\Java\JDK_1.6.0_11\bin\java.exe" ('Java -version' gives 1.6.0_11-b03) and migrated over the settings from the previous version of SQLDeveloper (OLD).
The Application loads fine but when i attempt to connect to XE's HR schema i get the following error:
"IO Exception: Undefined Error
VENDOR CODE 17002"
I have searched to try and find out what is going on but cannot find any solutions that work. The previous 17002 error solutions on this forumn have all failed.
These included changing the JDK.conf file to hold route to JDK directory and also creating a 'bat' file.
My system does not have the directory for the JDK in it's PATH environment setting (either USER or SYSTEM) but does include a directory path under SYSTEM environment vars to another version fo JDK on my machine under "C:\Program Files\Sun\JDK\". I thought this may be causing a conflict but it is version 1.6.0.05_b13 and is also compatible-is it not? I also have Java JRE6 (1.6.0_12-b04) on my machine - this does not have a PATH variable and was not referenced when loading SQL Developer when loading the first time.
Can anyone help me resolve this, why can the previous version still connect OK to XE and not new version? is there something i am missing? Do i require the Java JDK Directory to be placed under a PATH environment SYSTEM variable?
Thanks in advance,
M
