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>

Make the Forum Search Tool useful

The current Forum Search Tool is nearly useless. Please add the following features to make it a functional tool:
1. Logical operators - i.e. allow the following searches: cow AND chicken, cow OR chicken, cow NOT chicken (or -chicken)
2. Quoted text to search for exact phrases - i.e. allow the following search: "my chicken says moo"
3. Results with date ranges - i.e. allow the following search: weird chicken, Results before 04/01/2012 or after 04/01/10 or between 04/01/2010 and 04/01/2012
4. Mix it up! "My chicken says moo" AND "purple chicken feed" -cow, results after 12/23/2012
5. Search in one forum only - i.e. allow the following search: "chicken says moo" ONLY in the "Farm Animal Behavior" forum
6. Search ONLY in posts (answers and/or questions) made by a particular user - i.e. allow the following search - "purple chicken feed" posted by user "Farmer Brown" ONLY
7. Do NOT include variations of words that you "think" might be "helpful". Right now a search for the word "running" yields results that contain the following words: running, run, runs. Weeding through all the useless
"helpful" results is a huge waste of time and makes it difficult in the extreme to actually find "relevant" results. HINT: There might be an actual REASON why we want to search for "running" and
NOT "run" or "runs".
8. Please make the default operator AND instead of OR when more than one search word is used. Adding more terms to a search tool should produce FEWER, MORE REFINED RESULTS instead of MORE, IRRELEVANT RESULTS. Very few people ever want
to search on a single word only. This is especially true in a technical reference environment!
9. Sometimes I WANT a word spelled exactly as I typed it. If I get results that I do not want because I misspelled a word, I can just retype the search. If you FORCE me to use your spelling, this makes my search completely useless. Please
give us MORE options rather than less!
10. Remove search result highlighting. We don't need the words we just searched for being blasted at us in highlighted bold.
NOTE: If there are any other requests for the search tool, post them as replies and I'll add them to this list.
Please do not read this sentence. Please ignore the previous sentence.

Hi,

forum? who can help. please develop a powerful search for msdn forum. thanks
Searching in one forum is currently possible, you just need to make sure that you only have a single forum selected in the left rail:
This walkthrough is a bit out of date now, but it should still be helpful for selecting only a single forum:

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.

SQL Developer Tools/Preferences not saving

Downloaded SQL Developer 1.5.4 recently. When I go into Tools/Preferences and change any preference and click OK and when I go back in the updates are gone. Defaults are there. I have tried changeing the preference, clicking OK, exiting SQL Developer and opening it up again and the preferences are back to defaults.
How do I get the preferences to save?

Insufficient privilege when run SQL in PL/SQL Developer

Hi,
My developer had strange behavior when run below SQL from PL/SQL Developer. It will come out with "*Insufficient Privileges*" message.
SELECT Fiscal
FROM pmaps_fiscalweekonly
WHERE intend >= trunc(sysdate)
AND rownum < 5
ORDER BY intend ASC;
Same SQL run without any problem in SQLPLUS and SQL Developer.
But if we use small asc instead capital ASC, it run without problem also in PL/SQL Developer.
SELECT Fiscal
FROM pmaps_fiscalweekonly
WHERE intend >= trunc(sysdate)
AND rownum < 5
ORDER BY intend asc;
Kindly check if someone have any idea.

But the privilege problem only happened when capital ASC keyword was used in ORDER BY clause. If small asc keyword was used, it run without problem.
It seems to me, it does not relate with privilege or role grant. Please advise. Thanks.
ZlT.I think you should sk this question in a support forum for PL/SQL Developer. The possible bug seems directly connected to this tool. If I remember rightly then this tool is from ALLAutomations. You should ask them. THis forum would be the wrong place to ask.

SQL Developer SDK wiki(for extensions development) link broken

I would like to develop an extension for Oracle SQL Developer. I searched around the web for extension development API but couldn't find any working links.
The link http://wiki.oracle.com/page/SQL+Dev+SDK+Getting+Started
in the forum sticky as well as
the main extensions development page http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/extensions-083825.html#create

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
Is there any wiki link that I can use for extension development?

Run sql statements in PL/Sql Developer without installing Oracle database?

Hi all,
I wish to ask is there any possibility to run Run sql statements in PL/Sql Developer without installing Oracle database?
Regards.

Hello Jimmy,
this is the forum for the tool SQL Developer and, as the title says, *(Not for general SQL/PLSQL questions)*.
PL/Sql Developer is not an Oracle tool, but from allound allroundautomations.
And you need access to a database to run SQL statements. This does not need to be one installed by yourself.

Sql developer UTF-8 display problems

Hi
I use a development tool that is supposed to allow utf-8 encoding. If you enter text 'ABCDÉFGH' (É is ctrl alt E) through the software it is written to a VARCHAR2 value. When you look at the value using SQL Developer or (Congnos Impromptu) this value is displayed as ABCDÃFGH.
Should Sql Developer convert Ã to É when displaying the value. Or is the problem with the development tool where it is not writing the value to the table correctly.

SQL Developer not working

I installed SQL developers dot rel. 3.2.20.09.87 in my windows XP machine today. The downloadable zip file is available at oracle website http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/index.html.
Version I downloaded is :
Windows 32-bit - zip file includes the JDK1.6.0_35 Download Download 209 M
On clicking sqldeveloper.exe , the small Oracle SQL Developer window pops but it goes away in few seconds.
Any pointers to resolve this issue is highly appreciated !

Hi,
To avoid losing the window before you can read what went wrong, run the sqldeveloper.exe version in directory
<SQLDev_Install_Dir>\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.exeinstead.
If you should need to do a more in-depth investigation, the following offers some good advice on debugging:

SQL Developer 3.0/3.1 64 Bit Memory Setting

Hi,
To avoid hitting memory setting issues with SQL Dev 3.0/3.1 64 bit clients, you can make the following changes:
1) Close SQL Developer
2) Locate the sqldeveloper.conf file
Found in directory:
C:\<SQLDeveloper32\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin
3) Change the following line
Before:
AddVMOption -XX:MaxPermSize=128M
After:
AddVMOption -XX:MaxPermSize=256M
4) Launch SQL Developer
A memory issue of this sort will generally result in non-responsive UI behavior.
You can verify that you are hitting this issue by launching the console window version of SQL Developer and checking for memory exceptions.
C:\SQLDeveloper30-64RTMPatch1\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.exe
A bug has been filed change this setting.
Thanks, Mark

SQL Developer itself will work with a 64-bit JDK. It is possible that the data modeler still requires a 32-bit JDK.
You may get better answers in the dedicated Data Modeller forum.

SQl Developer 3.2 Product Release Now Available

Hi,
See Data Miner forum announcement: https://forums.oracle.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=1854
For more information about SQL Dev 3.2 in general: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/overview/index.html
Thanks, Mark

You can use the 32 or the 64 bit versions.
But if you want to use the OCI/thick stuff, the bit level will have to match, 32 bit SQLDev with 32 bit Oracle Client with 32 bit JDK. Same goes with 64.
When you download the 64 bit dist of SQLDev for windows, you'll need to get a 64bit JDK, and make sure you have a 64 bit Oracle Client if you want to use that.
If you need more info, I wrote up more detailed instructions here

Error in accessing SQL Developer

Hi,
I am using Windows Xp-32 bit system and I have installed SQL developer 3.2.20.09.87.I have installed both jdk 1.6 and jdk 1.7 but when i am opening it this error is coming:-
Unable to create an instance of the java virtual machine Located at Path:..\..\jdk\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll
Earlier there was no such problem in using the same version but now suddenly this error is coming.
please advise what to do for the above problem.
Thanks
Mahesh

Hi Mahesh,
Make sure you point at a 32-bit 1.6 JDK in the SetJavaHome line of your
<SQLDev_Home>\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.conf file. Alternately, delete that SetJavaHome line so you will get prompted to browse for it on next SQL Developer start-up.
If you had downloaded the Windows 32-bit - zip file includes the JDK1.6.0_35 from
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/index.html
you would never get prompted -- the default SetJavaHome line points at the JDK included in the download.
Hope this helps,

Hi,
To connect to non-Oracle databases from SQL*Developer youneed to download the relevant JDBC driver.
This is detailed in the documentation in the User Guide -
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35137_01/appdev.32/e35117.pdf
in the section -
Database: Third Party JDBC Drivers
The Third Party JDBC Drivers pane specifies drivers to be used for connections to third-party (non-Oracle) databases, such as IBM DB2, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, or Sybase Adaptive Server. (You do not need to add a driver for connections to Microsoft Access databases.) To add a driver, click Add Entry and select the path for the driver:
■For IBM DB2: the db2jcc.jar and db2jcc_license_cu.jar files, which are available from IBM
■For MySQL: a file with a name similar to mysql-connector-java-5.0.4-bin.jar, in a directory under the one into which you unzipped the download for the MySQL driver
■For Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase Adaptive Server: jtds-1.2.jar, which is included in the jtds-1.2-dist.zip download
■For Teradata: tdgssconfig.jar and terajdbc4.jar, which are included (along with a readme.txt file) in the TeraJDBC__indep_indep.12.00.00.110.zip or TeraJDBC__indep_indep.12.00.00.110.tar download
To find a specific third-party JDBC driver, see the appropriate website (for example, http://www.mysql.com for the MySQL Connector/J JDBC driver for MySQL, http://jtds.sourceforge.net/ for the jTDS driver for Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase Adaptive Server, or search at http://www.teradata.com/ for the JDBC driver for Teradata). For MySQL, use the MySQL 5.0 driver, not 5.1 or later, with SQL Developer release 1.5.
You must specify a third-party JDBC driver or install a driver using the Check for Updates feature before you can create a database connection to a third-party database of that associated type. (See the tabs for creating connections to third-party databases in the Create/Edit/Select Database Connection dialog box.)
