"Explain Plan" in Oracle SQL Developer is greyed out

Hi all,
I know this is not the right place to post this, but I have look around and do not know where to post question about Oracle SQL Developer - I presume this tool is also discussed here in this forum.
My question is very simple (I presume):
1. I installed Oracle SQL Developer 3.0.04.
2. I added a new DB connection to a DB hosted in one of my servers in the LAN.
3. However, when I am writing some SQL queries, I intend to use the "Explain Plan" feature, but it is being greyed out (disabled).
4. How can I enable it back?

Hi!
I have worked with several Oracle IDE's in the past:
* TOAD
* PL/SQL Developer
* Navigator
* SQL/Developer
Right now I tend to do most of my work with SQL-Developer and only some tasks with TOAD.
SQL-Developer feels faster and has a cleaner interface than TOAD, while TOAD has better tools.
Im currently publishing a series of tips for SQL-Developer in my blog:
http://oracledeli.wordpress.com/
Some of the posts are focussing on overcomming SQL-developers disadvantages versus TOAD:
* SQL-Developer: Using macros http://oracledeli.wordpress.com/2011/09/28/sql-developer_using_macros/
* Execute current worksheet file via SQL*Plus (external tools) http://oracledeli.wordpress.com/2011/09/23/sql-developer_execute_via_sqlplus/

Extract Siebel Tools sse_data.dbf file into Oracle Sql Developer.

Hi All,
I have Siebel tools installed on my machine and I need to export the sse_data.dbf file from tools to Oracle Sql Developer, how do I do that? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
Edited by: user11919275 on May 17, 2010 4:20 AM

Hi,
There's a tool named dbisqlc.exe which comes with default Siebel Tools installation. You can execute DML statements by using this tools. Actually dbisqlc.exe and sqldeveloper are both client tools for executing SQL statements.
What do you want to do by exporting the local dbf? Can you please explain your requirement?

Hello,
I get the same error after updating through Help->Check for Updates. I am at version 1.1.2.25 and the update does not change the version number of Oracle SQL Developer (Help->About), it remains at 1.1.2.25 (although if I look in extensions tab, it says: oracle.sqldeveloper 1.1.3.27.66 Loaded, possible bug in displaying version number?). These are the updates applied:
Upgraded Extensions
Oracle Microsoft Access Browser version 1.1.3.27.66
Oracle SQL Developer - Snippet version 10.1.3.27.66
Oracle SQL Developer version 1.1.3.27.66
Oracle SQL Developer - Reports version 10.1.3.27.66
Oracle SQL Server Browser version 1.1.3.27.66
Oracle MySQL Browser version 1.1.3.27.66
Oracle SQL Developer - Worksheet version 10.1.3.27.66
Oracle SQL Developer - Extras version 1.1.3.27.66
Oracle SQL Developer - SearchBar version 10.1.3.27.66
Oracle SQL Developer - Object Viewer version 10.1.3.27.66
I ran the update several times and was able to reproduce the error under a specific condition. If I am connected to a database at the time of the update I get the error. If I am not conneceted at the time of the update I do not get the error.
As stated, by Donal, sql developer seems to get over the problem after restarting itself twice.

How to compare two schemas in Oracle sql developer

Hello,
I need to compare both the data and schemas details (columns etc) between two schemas on different databases (connections).
What is the easiest and most efficient way to do this? Hopefully in Oracle Sql Developer or Sql Plus?
Thanks.

In SQL Developer go to Tools -> Schema Diff !
in SQL* Plus you will need to write PL/SQL for this.

Oracle SQL Developer is out

If you haven't been paying attention to early adopters of Project Raptor there it is - production release of Oracle SQL Developer, outstanding database development tool. It works very well with XE and if you're somehow reluctant to web interface or too ascetic sqlplus, you shall certainly like it. Very useful and at no charge.
Oracle SQL Developer is a new, free graphical tool that enhances productivity and simplifies database development tasks. With SQL Developer, you can browse database objects, run SQL statements and SQL scripts, and edit and debug PL/SQL statements. You can also run any number of provided reports, as well as create and save your own.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/sql_developer/index.html

I use SQL Developer for SQL and PL/SQL and only use SQL*Plus for the few commands that don't work in SQL Developer.
SQL Developer has a forum, too.

Problem with Oracle SQL Developer 3.0.04

1. Performing a "SELECT *" on an Oracle table with a SDO_GEOMETRY column locks up the tool and I have to use Task Manager to can it.
2. Clicking the Data tab on a table with an SDO_GEOM col either locks up the tool, or taked forever to return.
3. Performing a "SELECT" of a SDO_GEOM col either locks up the tool or takes forever to return.
None of these issues occur in Toad.

If you have a problem with SQL Developer, you'd be best off posting in the SQL Developer!

How to use Oracle SQL Developer 4.0 to connect to Ms Access file with .accdb extension

Hi all,
I am using Oracle SQL Developer 4.0 and Ms Access 2013 under Windows 7 (64 bits)
After browsing and selecting MS Access file with accdb extention, I got an error message :[Microsoft] " Data source name not found and no default driver specified".
On Administravitve Tools=> ODBC Data Source Administrator=>Drivers I have                                                File                                date

Would you please advise?
Thank you very much in advance

That MS Access driver is 64-bit, I think. If SQL Developer, or JDK is 32-bit you need to use the 32-bit driver.   You can see if you have a 32-bit driver installed using c:\windows\system32\odbcadm32.exe

BUG in Oracle SQL Developer 3.0.04 on the "generating DLL" with comments?

I'm newbie on oracle, but I think that I found out a bug in Oracle SQL Developer version 3.0.04 on the "generating DLL" tool using "comments".
I will describe the steps that I gave:
I created a view, but after I test it I had to change my “where” condition, so I comment the old code and then I wrote the new “where” condition below. After I done that I tried to look at the sql code of my view using “generating DLL” tool, but oracle sql developer only shown me half of the code, a lot of code were missing. Then I began with some test trying to understand what happen and I notice that if I put an invalid sql code in my comment the generating DLL start working with no problems, for example(pseudo-code):
(COMMENT WITH VALID SQL CODE the "Generating SQL" don't work:)
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW <user>.<view_name> ( <column1>,<column2> )
AS
SELECT column1, column2
FROM table1
INNER JOIN
(SELECT
FROM table2
INNER JOIN .....
INNER JOIN ....
--where time_stamp = (select max(time_stamp) from .....)
WHERE time_stamp >= TRUNC(sysdate)
) t1 ON t1.ID = ....
AND ..... >= TRUNC(sysdate)
ORDER BY ....
Generating DLL returns this(when the error occurs):
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW <user>.<view_name> ( <column1>,<column2> )
AS
(COMMENT WITH VALID SQL CODE the "Generating SQL" work with no problems:)
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW <user>.<view_name> ( <column1>,<column2> )
AS
SELECT column1, column2
FROM table1
INNER JOIN
(SELECT
FROM table2
INNER JOIN .....
INNER JOIN ....
--where
WHERE time_stamp >= TRUNC(sysdate)
) t1 ON t1.ID = ....
AND ..... >= TRUNC(sysdate)
ORDER BY ....
I believe that "Generating DLL" tool have some problem with the comments, I also used /*...*/ to comment but the problem is still active.
I notice as well that if I started to add some more comments along the code, the conditions migth change, so I think the problem is related with "comments" code.
Would you mind telling me if this is a real bug or if I'm doing anything wrong.
Thank you in advance,
Rodrigo Campos
Edited by: 894886 on 3/Nov/2011 5:29

Hi Rodrigo,
Thank you for reporting this. The only bug I see currently logged on a comment affecting the generated View DDL involves ending the last line of the definition with a comment, which treats the ending semi-colon (even if on a different line) as part of the comment. That is actually related to a low-priority bug against an Oracle database API.
Unfortunately, your pseudo-code is a bit complex. Trying a few quick, simpler tests against the standard HR schema did not reproduce the issue. I tried INNER JOIN, and nested SELECTs. It would help greatly if you could provide a test case compilable against one of the standard schema, like HR or SCOTT.

Gary

Urgent Help !!! Export data into insert format (Oracle Sql developer)

Hi all,
Please help , when i try to export ms access table which have 400,000 over rows to insert format using oracle sql developer 1.5.5. After the export have done the exported file xxx.sql is empty.
Is it because of too many rows? or what tool or function should i use for exporting table with many rows.
It used to have exported successfully with
Insert into table( ) values ();
Insert into table( ) values ();
Insert into table( ) values ();
Insert into table( ) values ();
----- when i try to export table with over 10,000 row.
Regard,
Tun

Another option is to export your file as Formatted text (space delimited). This will create a fixed format file. You can either create an external table to access the file or use sqlloader to load it. In your control file or access parameters you will specify the positions of the fields you are interested in. Your control file will look something like this:
OPTIONS (BINDSIZE=50000,ERRORS=50,ROWS=200,READSIZE=65536)
LOAD DATA
CHARACTERSET US7ASCII
INFILE '/home/FIXED_FORMAT.dat' "FIX 58"
CONCATENATE 1
INTO TABLE "EMP2"
APPEND
REENABLE DISABLED_CONSTRAINTS
"ID" POSITION(1:2) INTEGER(2) ,
"REGION" POSITION(3:3) INTEGER EXTERNAL(1) ,
"DEPT" POSITION(4:6) INTEGER EXTERNAL(3) ,
"HIRE_DATE" POSITION(7:14) DATE(8) "mmddyyyy" ,
"SALARY" POSITION(15:19) DECIMAL(9,2) ,
"NAME" POSITION(20:34) CHAR(15)
SQLDeveloper does not currently provide an option to import fixed format files.
