SQL Developer 3.1.07.42 existing column filter no longer editable

LO developers,
I have noticed a change in behaviour (I would not call it a regression ;o) ) since v3.1 prod release.
Until 3.1.07.42, when you add a column filter on a table or query resultset, you could edit the filter later. Since 3.1.07.42, it is no longer possible: one has to remove the filter first and then enter a new one.
Is this the intended behaviour? I preferred the previous one.
Have a nice day,
Olivier.

Unfortunately. Here is another forum thread referencing this issue, including the bug number:

  • BUG: SQL Developer 1.5.3 CSV export column order broken

    There's a bug in the 1.5.3 release of SQL Developer regarding data export. This bug re-orders the column order in the data export to be alphabetically sorted. This produces mangled CSV files if used on a table or a view.
    This is a critical bug to me since I need to produce lots of ad-hoc data CSV export files. I'm staying with SQL Developer 1.5.0.53 (53.38) for now as it doesn't have this problem.
    This is the same bug as present in Jdeveloper 11.1 as described in my post here: BUG: Jdev 11.1.1.0.0 -- DB table data export column order is not preserved
    Quoted from that post:
    When I connect to Oracle database, get the table list, right click on the table and select 'Export Data'->csv. The dialog box opens with three tabs: Format, Columns, Where. The column order displayed in both tabs Columns and Where is alphabetic. Because alphabetic ordering re-arranges columns from their initial ordering in the table, this screws up CSV export because columns are not in their intended order. This same problem occurs when I try to export data from views to generate a CSV file with a particular column order.
    Please open/check bug report if it's already open.
    Thanks!

    This happens with all of the export options for tables or views if you right click from the connections tab table list. If I pull it up in the main window and go to the data tab, I can then right click and it will keep the column id order for some of the views and tables. But not all.
    I am running 1.5.3 Build Main 5783 on a Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 platform

  • Bug in SQL Developer relating to handling of XMLTYPE columns

    Hi,
    I have found a bug in SQL Developer relating to its handling of XMLTYPE columns.
    Given a table with the following data:
    ID, XML_DATA
    1, <xml here>
    2, <xml here>
    3, <xml here>
    And the following SQL to extract a value from the XML and also an XML fragment as an XMLTYPE:
    SELECT
    EXTRACTVALUE(t.column_value,'/*/USER_ID/text()')user_id
    , t.column_value user_data
    FROM dbuser.mytable m
    , TABLE(XMLSEQUENCE(EXTRACT(m.xml_data, '/*/USER_LIST/USER'))) t
    I get the following:
    user_id, user_data
    jsmith26, (XMLTYPE)
    mjones45, (XMLTYPE)
    sborga31, (XMLTYPE)
    Note that the user_id is correctly extracted, however the XMLTYPE column (user_data) is empty in SQL Developer.
    The same query returns the correct XML data in TOAD.

    Steve,
    So your example is slightly more complex than the one documented for a table in the standard OE schema here:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/functions052.htm
    That example works fine on an 11.2.0.1 database with SQL Developer 3.2.20.09.87. Please try the following with your case:
    Tools -> Preferences -> Database -> Advanced -> Display Struct Value In Grid (check it off if not already)If that still does not work for Run Statement (query result displayed in the grid, not as script output using Run Script), then please provide a test case based on the Warehouse table in the OE schema (or your case with DDL and DML scripts including the xml data) and I will log a bug.
    Thanks,

  • SQL Developer 1.5.1 won't display UI any longer...

    Howdy, y'all; I'm using SQL Developer 1.5.1 on a laptop with Windows XP Pro SP3, fully patched, and 2 GB of memory. I try to run the system efficiently with as few processes and services as necessary, so as to avoid compatibility problems. All other apps, including Office 2K3 are fully patched.
    I'm trying to export data from an Oracle 10.1 instance; it worked for a while, but now SQL Developer doesn't run. In Windows Task Manager, I see "sqldeveloper.exe" as a process using ~95 MB of memory, but no CPU; the UI doesn't appear beyond the startup tips dialog.
    I changed the UI style from "Oracle" to "Windows" in the Preferences dialog, just to see what it would look like. Might this have broken SQL Developer? Don't wanna re-install if it's not necessary.
    Thanks for your assistance.
    Sincerely,
    APJ in The OC, SoCal.

    I had a similar issue, icons and display window was all messed up and mousing over made things worse.
    Solution
    I noticed that errors were being logged on the logging page tab, errors like:
    source : o.jt.ui.themes.ThemeProperties
    Message: Failed to load icon etc.
    Somehow the default Fusion Blue theme has gotten corrupted and I can't get it back. I changed the Theme and now it works fine.  Tools -> Preferences -> Environment -> Theme pulldown box. FYI - I'm using the Oracle look and feel setting.
    Clues
    Logging on as another user on the same machine didn't have problems with the Fusion Blue theme.
    Anyone know where these themes are stored? There should be a error handling routine in the code for this situation.
    _Things that didn't work_
    - Messing with the Java SDK versions
    - Delete and re-install
    - Switching between the versions that did and didn't include the Java SDK
    - Delete c:\documents and settings\user\Application Data\SQL Developer directory didn't work either, but now my DB connections settings are gone. :( At least the software is usable again.

  • Re: SQL-Developer Freezes Every Time I Click on a Trigger to Edit it

    Yes: SQL-Developer Freezes Every Time I Click on a Trigger just to edit it, even though the trigger is disabled. How do I get SQL-Developer to stop freezing-up and making me re-boot every time I even just click on a Trigger to select it, so that I can then rt.-click and edit it. Sometimes, SQL-Developer won't freeze immediately upon selecting the Trigger with my mouse, it will allow me to rt.-click to bring up the pop-up menu where I then try to click on "Edit" so I can change the same trigger, & as soon as I choose "Edit" SQL-Developer freezes-up -- must reboot.
    Also, one time I dropped a Trigger altogether in SQL-Developer, not just disabled it, but SQL-Developer was still launching the supposedly "dropped" trigger (the trigger also no longer appeared as an item under "Triggers" tree view) when I ran
    a SQL Script that did INSERTs: this supposedly dropped Trigger that no longer appeared anywhere in SQL-Developer was still executing (I could tell because I was getting ERROR MESSAGES in the Messages box) and the Trigger that I had executed the DROP command on from within SQL-Programmer really was only dropped and stopped executing after I re-booted. Can you help me?
    My immediate problem is the one above though. Do I need to create a Schema-Level Trigger to disable or drop all Triggers when I first logon (triggered by my logon system event), and then they will "CREATE" properly and stop freezing up and acting weird?

    Sorry, the above thread should have been a "new" post, not a reply post.

  • SQL Developer 2.1 EA - count rows with filter on a table

    This is a small problem that I came across today while using 2.1 EA. I opened a table and did a filter to narrow down the results of the table. Then when I right clicked on the search results and clicked on 'Count Rows'....I get the count of the rows in the table and not my search results.
    Is this a feature or a bug?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    In EA2, we get both the total and the filtered total, nice.
    Only remark is we don't get a progress indicator anymore, and thus can't cancel a query that might take up hours to finish!
    Please log a bug for this.
    Thanks,

  • SQL Developer dropping first column in a SQL SELECT

    Am not too certain who to report this to... but I just noticed that SQL Developer will not return the first column in a SELECT statement when there is a comment just after the SELECT reserved word when running the query in the SQL Worksheet. For instance:
    SELECT -- > HEADER INFORMATION STARTS HERE <--
    w.stu_id HDR_STU_ID,
    w.wiser_id HDR_WISER_ID,
    iep.wiep_id HDR_WIEP_ID,
    sis.wisis_id HDR_WISIS_ID,
    FROM wiser_exit exit
    INNER JOIN wiser w
    ON exit.wiser_id = w.wiser_id
    INNER JOIN wiser_iep iep
    ON w.wiser_id = iep.wiser_id
    INNER JOIN vw_wiser_iep_sis sis
    ON iep.wiep_id = sis.wiep_id
    will just return columns 2 - 4 (HDR_WISER_ID, HDR_WIEP_ID, and HDR_WISIS_ID), and NOT column HDR_STU_ID.
    I verified this by running the same query in SQL Commands in the SQL Workshop of APEX, and the resultset returned all the columns including HDR_STU_ID.
    Just ran another quick test in SQL Developer, and get the same results from a SELECT against a single table:
    SELECT -- > HEADER INFORMATION STARTS HERE <--
    county_cd,
    odd_even_flg,
    street_name
    FROM dime
    Did not return the county_cd column.
    I know, it's just a minor quirk, but I thought I would mention it.

    John,
    Thank you. I replaced the '--' comments with the '/*' '*/' style and it picked up the first column.
    I guess I'll just have to break an old habit I've been doing for years for comments. Dang, I hope all that old code doesn't break...
    Thomas
    Spoke too soon. I followed up by checking what Oracle's 'Oracle Database 10g The Complete Reference' had to say about the issue of using '--' for comments and under '-- (Comment)' it says "-- tells oracle a comment has begun. Everything from that point to the end of the line is treated as a comment. These delimiters are used only within SQL itself or in PL/SQL ..."
    So I guess I can continue using '--', but need to keep in mind that in certain circumstances it might not work as expected. YMMV

  • SQL Developer problem. Rows without columns on data tab

    Hello,
    I have a strange behavior in Oracle SQL Developer Version 2.1.0.63. When I'm trying to open the "Data tab" for some tables, SQL Developer shows data rows but without columns! It seems that I can select different rows but I can't see neither any data nor column names.
    Under the filter setting there are no available columns either.
    At the same time, when I'm trying to open sys tables they are displayed normally.
    From the other side, those tables which are not displayed correctly in 2.1.0.63, could be opened in Version 1.5.5 without any problems.
    Do you have any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

  • SQL Developer Screens Don't Match Tutorial Screens

    Hi, I am new to SQL Developer and am starting to go through the tutorial that is at this URL http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/tutorial/SQLDeveloper/index.htm. The version of SQLDeveloper that I just downloaded and am running is version 1.1.0.23.
    My problem is that the screens with my version of SQL Developer do not match the tutorial. For example when editing a Table my version of SQL Developer has a windowed area on the left with the options "Column, Primary Key, Unique Constraints, Foreign Keys, Check Constraints, Indexes, Storage Options, Lob Paramaters, Comment and DDL" listed top to bottom as a list. The Tutorial, on the other hand has these options as "Tabs" across the top. Also, when I select "Primary Key" with SQL Developer I don't get the option anywhere for "Populate Primary Key Column:" with radiobuttons for From: Existing Sequence or New Sequence.
    I am running Windows XP Professional. Any help would be appreciated as I can't use the tutorial since it doesn't match my version of SQL Developer. I seem to be missing options as well. I have screen captures showing the differences between SQL Developer and the Tutorial if someone wants me to email them so they can better understand what I am seeing.
    Thank You,
    Chris

    Yes, we are in the process of updating all the doc and collateral for 1.1.
    If you have not yet created your table, then in the Advanced Create table dialog, select Sequences. The dialog will display an area to create the new sequence name and trigger code. The functionality is the same, the dialog a little different in layout.
    If the table already exists:To create a sequence for your primary key, or any other column for that matter, right click the table created and select Trigger -> Create (PK from Sequence)
    This dialog will give you the option of creating a sequence and new trigger for any column in your table.

  • Problems using Quick Migrate in SQL Developer 1.5 for MySQL to Oracle 10g

    Hi all,
    I am trying to use SQL Developer 1.5 migration tools (Quick Migrate) to perform online capture and build source model to migrate from MySQL 5.x to Oracle 10g on Windows platform. I get these errors and the Quick Migrate process fails:
    oracle.dbtools.metadata.persistence.PersistableObject.doInsert(PersistableObject.java:238)
    I did a search and used the sqldeveloper.cmd script but still fails. Then I created a new database and truncated the repository. I now get the above error plus two new ones listed below:
    oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:112)
    Error loading nls:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
    Error occurred during capture: Protocol violation
    It fails during the capture process for MySQL 5.1 database
    when it begins to capture the tables from MySQL.
    Does anyone know how to resolve these issues when migrating from MySQL to Oracle 10g using Quick Migrate with SQL Developer 1.5 release?

    Hi all,
    I put the following in my sqldeveloper.cmd file:
    SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
    What is very confusing is that with SQL Developer 1.5, there are several levels and several SQL Developer executables! I am really not sure which of these to use:
    I created the SQLDeveloper 1.5 directory called SQLDeveloper1_5 on Windows:
    1) cd C:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338
    there exists a sqldeveloper.exe
    2) cd c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper.exe
    3) cd c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloer\bin\sqldeveloper.exe
    Which SQLDeveloper 1.5 executable should I be using and where should I place the
    sqldeveloper.cmd file?
    Also I did try to use a different database and schema for the repository with Quick Migrate but it appears a bug exists in SQL Developer 1.5 version that causes errors with Quick Migrate for MySQL to Oracle? Is this correct?
    As an update, I ran the following commands:
    cd to
    c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin
    sqldeveloper.cmd sqldeveloper.exe
    Start sqldeveloper.exe
    Perform standard capture for MySQL using the new mig2 schema as the new repository
    It starts the capture but fails on the errors below:
    Error loading nls:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
    UPDATE
    ============================
    I tried this again and it worked with the exception of one error message listed below:
    Here are the steps that I followed:
    1. Create a Windows cmd script
    Put the following entries in the script:
    SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
    save the command windows script as sqldeveloper.cmd
    Copy this script to the base installation directory for SQLDeveloper
    Example:
    1. cd c:\SQLDeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper
    2. Start SQLDeveloper with the command script that you created earlier
    Example:
    Open a Windows shell prompt window and execute the following scripts:
    a) sqldeveloper.cmd sqldeveloper.exe
    b) sqldeveloper.exe
    3) In SQL Developer 1.5
    From the Migrate menu,
    a) Delete current repository and create a new schema in Oracle target database call it mig2.
    b) Then create a new repository in SQL Developer 1.5
    c) Right mouse click on the MySQL 5.x database and choose capture
    It worked with the exception of one error message:
    o.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver     
    Error while registering Oracle JDBC Diagnosability MBean.
    So it looks like something is screwed up with my JDBC drivers and configuration for MySQL. How do I diagnose the JDBC driver issue for MySQL?
    Thanks!!!

  • SQL Developer export forgot to check to include semicolons in DDL

    Hi,
    I used the SQL Developers Export-function (select tables and right click on them, then select export) to backup tables.
    However, I forgot to set the 'Abschlusszeichen' (sorry for the german). That apparently means my create table statements are not finished by an ';', and they sinmply don't execute using the @script.sql method, or the sql developers import-function.
    One sql-file is 2 GB in size, so I currently have no idea how to edit it and add the semicolons manually. Is there any hope to rescue the data?
    I'm running sql developer 3.2.20.09, oracle Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production as well as Windows 8.1
    For clarification, this is how the create table part looks:
    --  Datei erstellt -Montag-September-30-2013  
    --  DDL for Table ZZ_BEN_0
      CREATE TABLE "PIERUSCHM"."ZZ_BEN_0"
       (    "BENUTZER_ID" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "NAME" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "GUELT_VON" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "GUELT_BIS" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "IST_KORREKTUR" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "IST_HALBTAGSKRAFT" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "LADE_DAT" DATE
    --  DDL for Table ZZ_BEN_1
      CREATE TABLE "PIERUSCHM"."ZZ_BEN_1"
       (    "BENUTZER_ID" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "NAME" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "GUELT_VON" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "GUELT_BIS" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "IST_KORREKTUR" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "IST_HALBTAGSKRAFT" NVARCHAR2(30),
        "LADE_DAT" DATE
    --  DDL for Table ZZ_BEN_10

    Also i'd like to add that the file begins with table definitions but then contains the actual (and randomly generated) data as well.
    You still need to have the file regenerated or you should expect to have problems with ANY method you use to try to automatically 'fix' the problem.
    1. No experienced developer that I have worked with would EVER try to execute such a monolithic script because there is virtually NO chance that a 2 GB script will EVER run successfully without an error of some sort. Objects have to be created in the proper order when dependencies exist between them. For example, you can't create an index if the table hasn't been created yet. There can even be circular references that will prevent all objects from being VALID even if they are created.
    2. There is virtually NO chance that ANY method you use will put terminators in EXACTLY the right place without causing a problem of some sort.
    3. When there is an error the script may continue to try to executed and that usually causes further errors. It also creates garbage objects that are not valid but will keep the script from working correctly the next time since the objects will already exist.
    You need to create a SET of scripts that are of manageable size so that you can control the process of executing them in the proper order.
    If you don't take the time to do that, up front, you are going to wasted a tremendous amount of time when the script fails trying to cut and paste the pieces you need out of that 'master' script.
    There are NO SHORTCUTS: take the time to do it right the first time.

  • SQL Developer 3.0.02 & External table

    Hello all,
    I encountered an interesting error while working with SQL Developer. I created external table mapped on data file in csv format. Everything works fine up to moment I double clicked the table header of the first column to make data sorting. Since I am not able to see table data even if the SQL Developer has been restarted.
    In the 'Data Editor - Log' window I can see the text as follows:
    ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [rworupo.1], [17], [10], [], [], [], [], []
    When I open SQL view of that table I can see:

    Thanks for any idea.
    Jiri

    Hello Jiri!
    this is because of SQL Developer does not support "order by" over external tables.
    In general it is not disabled in SQL developer to use it for external tables but due to unknown reason execution of select including "order by" clause over external table generates ORA-00600 error.
    SQL Developer is saving all used "order by", "filter" settings (and many others) to special cache (user specific XML file) and this setting is used next time you open specific object - table.
    It means when you apply "sorting" on external table
    - oracle generates ORA-00600
    - used "order by" is stored by SQL Developer into cahce XML file
    - ...and you cannot open this table from your SQL developer anymore
    How to correct it:
    - go to SQL developer cache folder (something like C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\SQL Developer)
    - try to find file "*GridSettings.xml" which contains this bad cache information
    there are usually tons of GridSettings.xml files
    -1134293461GridSettings.xml
    -1134293492GridSettings.xml
    -1134293523GridSettings.xml
    you have to find file which contains your specific extenal table name like...
    <uniqueName>SELECT * FROM "SCHEMANAME"."EXTERNAL_TABLE"</uniqueName>
    - find "sortClauses" tag
    <sortClauses>
    <Item class="java.lang.String">3 asc</Item>
    <Item/>
    </sortClauses>
    - you can now edit/correct content of this file/tag or just delete it completely
    - or you can easily delete complete cache folder - BUT in this case all specific user setting can be deleted!!!
    - then your table is accessible again :-)
