Open Last X files edited in SQL Developer

I'm looking for the option to reopen the last X files that have been edited in SQL Developer so that I don't have to search for them every time. Can it be that the SQL Developer is missing such a basic functionality?
I'm using v. 1.5.0.53 Build MAIN-53.38 at the moment
Thanks for your help,
Thomas

I tried this and my first impression was that it didn't work as nothing was listed, although as Phil indicated, checking the "Show All" box shows a bunch of files. If I then open a file and go back to the "Go to Recent Files" and uncheck the "Show All" the file that I just opened is listed (but not the other files). It looks as though the "Recent Only" (what I am assuming not having "Show All" checked actually means) measures recent as the last few minutes - five minutes after opening the file, nothing shows in "Go to Recent Files" if "Show All" is unchecked.

How to open a package body in Oracle sql developer

How to open a package body in Oracle sql developer..any shortcut for that

I need another way to get to my package body. I'm on a locked down system, so the only way I can reference anything is if I already know the name of it. I accidentally overwrote my text document that I was using to work on it and I closed out of the package body in sqldeveloper. There must be a command, like an alter or some such. Anyone know the old fashioned way of looking at a package?

How to import *.dmp file Through Oracle SQL Developer (3.2.20.09)

hi
how to import *.dmp file Through Oracle SQL Developer (3.2.20.09) ?
how to do it ?

You do not.
.dmp files are created from our Export and Data Pump database utilities and are proprietary files. You use the corresponding Import (or Data Pump) utility to import the data.

File with pls extension opens with data modeler instead of sql developer

Hello,
I have both SQL Developer and Data Modeler installed as separate installations. If I click in the Windows File navigator on a file with the extension pls, the SQL Developer should open since the pls extension has been connected to SQL Developer.
If I have neither SQLD nor DM open, SQLD opens -> ok
If I have only SQLD open, the file is opened in SQLD -> ok
If I have only DM open, the file is opened in DM -> not ok
If I have both SQLD and DM open, the last started application opens the file -> sometimes ok
Is it possible to manage the opening of a pls to open always in SQL Developer?
Joop

This is quite an old problem which I have seen with JDeveloper and SQLDeveloper so it may be framework related. I don't currently have both installed to check it out, but as it has been around a long time I doubt it has gone away.
SQL files would open in either JDeveloper or SQL Developer following the pattern Joop described. Java files would only ever open in JDeveloper. IIRC there was never a SQL file association for JDeveloper and SQLDeveloper was always the default.

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?

How to execute command(program) from external file in Oracle SQL developer

Hi,
Does anyone know, Oracle SQL developer version 1.0.0.14.67 got any function that can execute command from an external file?
Example, i have 100 insert SQL inside a text file,
and i want to use Oracle SQL developer to execute it. How do i read from my text file? Thanks a lots.

If you're new to Oracle, do yourself and us a favour: read some tutorials and manuals. What sqldev's worth, better download the latest version (1.1.2), lots of fixes and enhancements...
Now for the big popper: to run an external file: @file
Best of luck,

Running/Compiling *.java file in Oracle Sql Developer

I want to compile/run java 5.0 files in Oracle sql developer1.1.2.25 on Fedora 5 platform.
I have added javac as an enternal tool to compile java programs. Tools-->External Tools-->New
I have also added java: /usr/java/jre1.5.0_10/bin/java as an external tool to run the complied programs
I am able to compile the java programs, but i am not able to run them.
I am providing ${file.name.no.ext} as an argument to java.
Java-Log Output is:
/usr/java/jre1.5.0_10/bin/java Writer2
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Writer2
However, if i run the same program in Linux terminal, i get the correct output:
[root@localhost java]# which java
/usr/java/jre1.5.0_10/bin/java
[root@localhost java]# /usr/java/jre1.5.0_10/bin/java Writer2

howdy
folks
How can i make Oracle Sql Developer run the java program?

I will echo the use jdev comment..
Regardless, you may want to check the execute in directory.. or add a -cp parameter.

Today's Firefox upgrade doesn't let browser open normally, a little box opens with choices "file" "edit" "view" .

After today's (October 13) Firefox upgrade, browser doesn't open normally. Instead, a small box appears with the choices of "file" "edit" and "view". Choosing "full screen" under "view" opens to include the entire page...the normal bottom and top lines are gone. You need to fix whatever you messed up. Windows Vista 2, 32-bits.

You seem to have the classic menu bar enabled.

Open an existing file, edit and save in Forms 10G R2

Dear all
Could u pls tell me how can i open a file like .doc,.xls extension. and i want to input some data to that file and save.These all i need to oracle 10g R2 version click on a button. How can i open .pdf and html file(Read Only).
Regards,
MAR

You can do this to show a file on the client file system...
web.show_document('file://c:\mypath\myfile.doc', '_blank');
This will lauch the word document in word. The user can then edit and save it from word. This basically is calling your web browser and your web browser then hands off the file to a helper app. This will work for any file type that the client has helper app to display.

How to make a file to be opened in PL-SQL Editor of SQL Developer

How to open a package file (.pkg) in sql Developer's PL-SQL Editor?
Tried creating a new file type with Extension as .pkg and file type as PlSqlNode.
Could open the file and found some of the features of plsql editor, such as find, compile... but could not differentiate the font colors.
How should we go about in having the file opened with different font colors (for identifier, builtin....?
Thanks.
K.Nataraja Suthan,

I guess you're running into another known bug in this file-based battlefield.
Opening files won't colour the code until having opened some code from the DB first. Can you try that?
On a sidenote, I've had really bad experiences with external files (both compiling to DB and saving to file incorrectly, not showing errors, etc.). In the end the only safe thing to do is work directly on the DB, saving your progress now and then to file.
Regards,
K.

Double click to open .sql files with sql developer on mac osx

hi,
I am trying to double click a .sql file and open it with SQL Developer on Mac OSX lion. I have associated .sql files to SQL Developer. On clicking the file it opens the SQL developer application but does not open the actual .sql file. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hello,
Did you find any solution to your problem ? My SQL Developer worked fine and could open additional SQL files. Now it only opens the first one when starting SQL Developer. Additionnal files cannot be opened. Even running sqldeveloper.exe from command line with a SQL file as parameter doesn't help.
I'm on Windows 7, 64 bit, but the environment may not necessarily be the cause.

SQL Developer is not able to identify the Tnsnames.ora file

Hi,
I have installed the following in the laptop having Win XP:
1) Oracle 10gR2 Client software in the D: drive of laptop. Tnsnames.ora is located in this clients Network\Admin path. This client is used to access the databases on the other servers.
2) Oracle 10gR2 Database software in the E: drive of laptop. Right now there is not Tnsnames.ora file in this softwares Network\Admin path. This db software has been installed to create local databases in the laptop.
3) Oracle SQL Developer Version 2.1.1.64 is also installed in C: drive of laptop.
The problem which now I'm facing is that the SQL Developer is not able to identify the Tnsnames.ora file mentioned in the above point-1 which contains entries of databases on the different servers. Could you please help me out in solving this problem?
Thanks in advance.
MAK

I forget what version I was using at the time, but when I had an ORACLE_HOME defined for the environment and TNSNAMES file defined in SQL Developer (different one than was in ORACLE_HOME), that I would see results from both tns files. I don't know if that is still the case. I have since dropped my ORACLE_HOME environmental variable.

Data Miner Extension in SQL Developer 4.0 EA3 Release: EA3 Repository Migration Failure

The Data Miner extension in the SQL Developer 4.0 EA3 release fails when attempting to migrate the repository to EA3. This posting contains instructions on how to recover from this failure as well as to successful migrate the repository from EA2 to EA3. There are no problems when just installing a fresh Data Miner repository.
Sorry about the difficulty if this has caused you any problems.
Mark
Failure message displayed in log when migrating to EA3:
Error report -
ORA-06550: line 96, column 40:
PLS-00382: expression is of wrong type
ORA-06550: line 96, column 7:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
06550. 00000 - "line %s, column %s:\n%s"
*Cause:    Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
*Action:
Instructions on how to recover from failure and continue using original version of SQL Developer:
1) Execute the following sql as SYS in order to allow the Data Miner repository to be open for use again:
UPDATE ODMRSYS.ODMR$REPOSITORY_PROPERTIES
SET PROPERTY_STR_VALUE = 'LOADED'
WHERE PROPERTY_NAME = 'REPOSITORY_STATUS';
COMMIT;
2) During attempted migrationto EA3 failed, access priviliges to the Data Miner repository are revoked from users. In order to use Data Miner again, these grants must be reapplied. You can either use the UI guided process to accomplish this, which requires the SYS password, or you can run the usergrants.sql script, again as the SYS user. For instructions on how to run the usergrants.sql script, or any adminstrative script, review the instructions contained in the install_scripts_readme.html file. You can find this file in the SQL Developer directories created when you unzipped SQL Developer. It is located in the following relative directory: \<SQL Developer Install Directory>\sqldeveloper\dataminer\scripts.
Instructions on how to successfully migrate to EA3.
If you have already attempted to migrate to EA3 and failed, then you need to perform the recovery instructions noted above, after which you can continue with the instructions below.
If you have not yet attempted to migrate to EA3, then just following the instructions below.
1) Replace all contents the script file createxmlworkflowsbackup.sql with specification contained at the end of this posting. The file to edit can be found in the \<SQL Developer Install Directory>\sqldeveloper\dataminer\scripts directory.
2) After completing the edit to createxmlworkflowsbackup.sql, you can proceed with the UI guided migration or perform the migration using the appropriate migration script. Review the install_scripts_readme.html file in the /dataminer/scripts directory for instructions on how to perform the migration using the script. For the UI migration, simply open any user connection in your Data Miner navigator, and you will be prompted to perform the migration.
