How to set default path for file open in SQL Developer

Hi,
I am new to Oracle SQL Developer. Everytime when I open a file, it will default to the install directory. It is hurtingmy hand because I have to click back to the folder where I put my sql statements.
Is there any way to set the Home or Work button to point to the location I like? or add anther button to point to my folder? I just don't want to click 5 to 10 times to open a file.

There are a few things. One is that you can set a working directory for any files you run in the SQL Worksheet i.e. @myfile.sql will pick up this directory.
You can also set a preference for exporting files.
Also if you use File -> Open, it should remember where you were the last time, so you hunt the first time, then it remembers for the next time. There is a bug for ctrl-O that always goes back to the original directory, but that has been fixed for the next patch release, so ctrl -O will also remember where you were last.
The differences here are because we are dependent on the IDE from JDeveloper, and so we don't have full control over the Save and Open dialogs. We are aware of this frustration and are planning to change this for a future release.

  • How to set default permissions for files and folders

    We have mac and windows computers on a network where we use Mac OSX Server 10.4 to share files. When files are created on windows computer, no problem, all users can read/write these files. However on our 2 macs (1 10.3 and 1 10.4), other users are blocked from using the files, only the owner has "read/write", group and others are "read only". As far as I can tell, file sharing is turned on ok in Workgroup Manager for the folders we share files from. How can we establish sharing for all users on our network?

    Niel's suggestion is good. You might also try posting your question in the Tiger Server forums. I'm sure Tiger Server has several ways of dealing with this.

  • How do I set the default folder for file - open file... ?

    When I save a file, photo, etc., the default folder for OPENING a file becomes the last folder I SAVED to - even after closing and reopening Firefox. Is there a way to maintain the same default folder for opening files?

  • How to set default view for preview?

    Every time I open a PDF using Preview I have to set the view to 'thumbnails', then 'two pages up', then adjust the zoom. Complete waste of time.
    Anyone know how to set defaults so that it opens in a predictable way?
    thanks,

    I customized my Toolbar to look like the following. Click the middle button that has the 1 circled. That tells Preview to remember to display pages at actual size (100%). Every file that I open now displays at 100%.

  • How to set default values for boolean columns

    I'm trying to deploy some content types and columns into a site with a feature. All it's ok, except that I'm trying to set a default value for boolean columns with no success.
    I've tried to set default value at column level:
    <Field ID="{EFE23A1D-494E-45cf-832E-45E41B17F0CF}" Name="ScopeSpanish" DisplayName="Se publican noticias en español"
    Type="Boolean" Hidden="FALSE" Group="Columnas ShaCon" >

    <FieldRef ID="{EFE23A1D-494E-45cf-832E-45E41B17F0CF}" Name="ScopeSpanish" DefaultValue="TRUE" Required="TRUE" />
    But in any case, when i create a new item with this content type, default value is applied.
    Can anyone tell how to set default values for boolean columns?
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi,
    According to your description, you want to set default value for TaxonomyWebTaggingControl.
    I have a test in my environment. It could be achieved by setting the Text Property of TaxonomyWebTaggingControl.
    Here is the code snippet:
    TaxonomySession session = new TaxonomySession(SPContext.Current.Site);
    SPSite site = SPContext.Current.Web.Site;
    TermStore termStore = session.TermStores["Managed Metadata Service"];
    Group group = termStore.Groups["GroupA"];
    TermSet termSet = group.TermSets["A"];
    Term term = termSet.Terms["A1"];
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.SspId.Add(termStore.Id);
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.SSPList = termStore.Id.ToString();
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.TermSetId.Add(termSet.Id);
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.TermSetList = termSet.Id.ToString();
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.AllowFillIn = true;
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.IsAddTerms = true;
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.IsMulti = false;
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.Text = string.Format("{0}|{1}", term.Name, term.Id.ToString());
    Here is a detailed article for your reference:

  • How to set local path for load library

    Hi,
    How do i set local path for native dll as i dont want to set the path in the environment variable.
    can i do like this
    System.loadLibrary("c:\abc");
    Thanks

    I believe that System.load() does exactly the same thing, but accepts fully qualified filenames. So give that a try.
    Failing that.... maybe you can add -Djava.library.path=
    to your command line to explicitely override the path set ?

  • How to set default language for Portal?

    Hi All,
    We use EP6.
    Default language is not defined and therefore is being set by the browser's language.
    Where do I set default language for all users?
    (I don't want that the users will be able to change it by themselves by browser/EU role).
    I tried to set the "request.mandatorylanguage" and
    "request.mandatorycountry" in prtDefault.properties but it didn't help.
    Thanks,
    Omri

    Hi Omri,
    are those to parameters
    request.defaultlanguage=...
    request.defaultcountry=...
    set in the prtDefault.properties, and the J2EE Server restarted after the change?
    Check out this thread and the link given there for more info: HOW to define the default language in the portal

  • Java files open in SQL Developer instead of JDeveloper

    JDEV 10.1.3
    Windows XP
    When I double click a java file, it opens in SQL Developer instead of JDeveloper.
    When I right click a java file, and select 'Open With'->jdeveloper, the java file always opens in SQL Developer instead of JDeveloper.
    I've tried browsing and choosing all the different executables: jdevw.exe, jdev.exe, jdeveloper.exe. No luck on any of them.
    Any help here? Thanks!

    Thanks, but that didn't work. I noticed that the "open" action for java file extension is, in fact, set to use the jdeveloper.exe (I also tried jdev.exe and jdevW.exe).
    Note: even if I run the jdeveloper.exe on the command line, with a java file as the argument, the java file still opens in SQL Developer, if it is running. (Otherwise it uses JDeveloper)
    It's as if JDeveloper and SQL Developer are somehow coupled in the opening of files.

  • How to set default directory for SQL LOADER

    hi all,
    i wanted to know how can we setup a default directory for SQL LOADER if at all we can. i connot place my control and data files in local system and use them at command prompt. rather i wanted to know if we can set default directory that the loader can use. this requirement is basically to enable all the clients to upload the data placed on the server and use the loader utility.
    thanks in advance,
    Basavraj

    Ella,
    You don't say which version of SQL Developer you are using via Citrix, but just setting the SQLDEVELOPER_USER_DIR hasn't worked for a long time (see Re: SQLDEVELOPER_USER_DIR does not function anymore). Also, since version 1.5, the default for the user directory (now set via ide.user.dir as shown below) is under the user profile area (relative to %APPDATA%), which you should be able to write to, even on Citrix.
    Assuming that neither of those help, you will need to get whoever installed SQL Developer on the Citrix C: drive to modify the sqldeveloper.conf to have a line like, where the path exists for everyone who will be using the shared SQL Developer (assumes everyone has a H: drive):
    AddVMOption -Dide.user.dir=H:\sqldeveloperAn alternative (depending on how you start SQL Developer via Citrix), is to create your own shortcut to start SQL Developer with something like:
    sqldeveloper -J-Dide.user.dir="%SQLDEVELOPER_USER_DIR%"theFurryOne

  • How to set (class)paths for a Managed server?

    How does one configure the PATH and CLASSPATH and pass definitions (like "-Djava.library.path=c:\p\bea\wlserver6.1\bin")
    to a remotely-started managed server?
    The section in the WLS 6.1 AdminGuide.pdf that talks about configuring a managed
    server's Remote Start tab says on pages 3-9 to 3-10 that, "If you don't specify
    values for these fields and attempt to start the target server from the Administration
    Console, the Node Manager will attempt to start the target server with the values
    for these attributes that were used when starting the Node Manager. The Node Manager
    will be able to start the Managed Server in that case if you specified the required
    values on the command line when starting the Node Manager."
    So it sounds as if I can get the java.library.path definition and CLASSPATH sent
    to the server via the Node Manager startup command.
    Does that work when using the Node Manager as an NT Service? Here is my Win2K
    command file for setting up the Node Manager as an NT Service. Note that I'm trying
    to tell it where to find the Windows native libraries (wlserver6.1\bin for wlntio.dll)
    and the JDBC drivers (C:\SHADOW\jdbc\... and C:\Orant\jdbc\... ) :
    ========== BEGIN installNMNtService.cmd ================ @echo off
    SETLOCAL
    cd C:\p\bea\wlserver6.1\
    rem *** Set Classpath to load Weblogic Classes
    set CLASSPATH=.;C:\p\bea\wlserver6.1\lib\weblogic_sp.jar;C:\p\bea\wlserver6.1\lib\weblogic.jar;C:\SHADOW\JDBC\scjd12.jar;C:\orant\jdbc\lib\classes111.zip
    rem *** Set Command Line for service to execute
    rem *** %JAVA_HOME%\java will automatically be prepended.
    set CMDLINE=" -ms16m -mx16m -classpath \"%CLASSPATH%\" \"-Dbea.home=C:\p\bea\"
    \"-Djava.security.policy==C:\p\bea\wlserver6.1/lib/weblogic.policy\" \"-Dweblogic.nodemanager.weblogicHome=C:\p\bea\wlserver6.1\"
    \"-Dweblogic.nodemanager.reverseDNSenabled=true\" \"-Djava.library.path=c:\p\bea\wlserver6.1\bin\"
    \"-Dweblogic.nodemanager.listenAddress=111.111.111.123\" \"-Dweblogic.nodemanager.trustedHosts=./config/nodemanager.hosts\"
    weblogic.nodemanager.NodeManager"
    rem *** Install the service
    "C:\p\bea\wlserver6.1\bin\beasvc" -install -svcname:EDANodeManager -javahome:"C:\p\bea\jdk131"
    -execdir:"C:\p\bea\wlserver6.1" -extrapath:"C:\p\bea\wlserver6.1\bin" -cmdline:%CMDLINE%
    ENDLOCAL
    ================= END installNMNtService.cmd ==================
    But when I start a server remotely, it can't find the native libraries and it
    can't find the JDBC libraries in the CLASSPATH. Otherwise, it can serve up HTML
    pages at the correct port number so I know it's running.
    When starting a managed server remotely via the WLS 6.1 console, how do I tell
    the managed server where the native libraries and JDBC libraries are?
    Thanks!
