SQL Developer....tough to find the schema I am looking for

I am a contractor here and I have been given the host name/ user name / password for the database.I log in using SQL Developer tool ,and I see the tables ,views,indexes,packages etc and all are empty.Then below there is "Other Users" and underneath that host of other details.With great difficulty I was able to find my right schema under Other Users!.
Please let me know if there is a better way for me to get to the right schema moment I enter the connection details.Also what is this "Other Users".
thanks
M

I asked for database details and the thing I
received is
host name
service name
user name
password
portdid you do the asking in person, or via email. I've been a DBA a long time and mostly we don't try to make life difficult for either developers, contractors or even contract developers! Quite often though face-to-face communication beats emails. The thing I find odd is that it appears that you knew what schema you wanted, but you got to the stage of logging in as the owner of a different schema before discovering that you couldn't see the tables directly in the dev tool. If I were to be developing in the SCOTT schema (or the HR or the NIALL or whatever schema) then I'd expect to get the host, service name and password for that schema (and port if it wasn't 1521 or tns alias if I was using some centralized name resolution method.

You've used the wrong name for the folder that holds the html page.

Is what it is trying to find (and it doesn't exist).
www.artworksforyouth.org redirects to www.artworksforyouth.com which then redirects to your iWeb page.
Rather than the word "Site" in your URL you need to use ArtWorks%20for%20Youth

This has got to be the worst 'Finder' in the history of the Mac. You can no longer find the file you are looking for without a painstaking search.

No longer easy to use. No longer logical. You now have to trawl through all the files just in case you missed what youi were looking for. Simple alphabetical order is all that is required not this over engineered confusion.

Clicking on the "name" column in any Finder list view will sort by name. Also, make sure you're not looking at the "All My Files" shortcut which is (in my opinion) confusing to many people and doesn't tell you where the files actually live.

What can you do if you can't find the song you are looking for on Itunes?

I am looking for a specific song from a specific singer for my wedding this summer. It isn't on ITunes. What can I do about this problem?

Look somewhere else for it.

Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can; and when I click on this link...like so many others... Firefox responds: "Sorry, we couldn't find the page you were looking for. Please, try searching our site using the form below."

sorry, I'm not going to list any more sites...fix this program, or lose a user since Navigator v1.0

Two pages open, one is the page I am looking for and the other apoligizes for not finding the page. How do I get rid of this page?

After I upgraded to Firefox 4, I open Firefox and my default home page comes up and so does a page that apologizes for not finding the page I am looking for. How can I get rid of this extra page when I open Firefox? I have Windows XP.

Install Oracle XE, SQL Developer, and Toad on the same machine?

I have been trying to install Oracle SQL Developer, Toad, and Oracle Express on my work computer. Installing SQL Developer and Toad was pretty straightforward, and I was able to browse the XE database with SQL Developer. But after installing Toad, problems started. Toad was using Oracle XE's registry settings to locate ORACLE_HOME and oci.dll. So I tried changing the settings for Oracle XE in the registry. Toad now works, but not Oracle XE. And while I was going through this all, I even had a time when I had Toad and oracle xe working, but not SQL Developer. It almost looks like you can choose two of the products, but not all three.
So, my question to the community at large is "Can it be done?". In what directories do you have each product installed? What environment variables do you have set? Where is your tnsnames.ora? What Oracle registry settings do you have set (namely HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE)?
I can post my current settings, but I've been through so many iterations that these current settings don't really matter that much.
Here are the details I am looking for
Path to sqldeveloper.exe
Path to oracle.exe (for Oracle XE)
Environment Variables
ORACLE_HOME
ORACLE_BASE
TNS_ADMIN
PATH (just the oracle stuff)
Registry Settings
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE\ORACLE_HOME
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE\ORACLE_BASE
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE\TNS_ADMIN
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE\OLEDB
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\KEY_XE\ORAMTS_CP_TRACE_DIR

I don't use toad, but there should be no reason why you can't install all 3. SQL Developer is a very clean install and affects nothing else. It doesn't add to the path, or create any registry entries except for file associations.
A toad installation should pick up your oracle client (in this case the XE code). I am curious as to why you felt you had to change registry settings. What problem were you trying to fix?
My recommendation would be to uninstall everything, clean the registry and reinstall in the order XE, Toad, SQL Developer. Test in between installations and seek help for problems as you find them. Bear in mind that this is the forum for SQL Developer. QUestions about Oracle XE would be better answered in the dedicated forum, or in the Installation forum, and questions about Toad in a toad forum.

SQL Developer Data Modeler -Editing the Legend

Hi,
I have installed SQL DEVELOPER Version- 3.0.04. I am creating the data modeler diagrams(Relational and Logical) using the SQL Data Modeler.I would like to know whether the following features are available in this version or the latest version of SQL DEVELOPER.
1) Remove the existing legend attributes (Say:Author,Created on,Changed By etc) for both relational and logical diagrams.
2)Add new attribute to the Legend .(Say: A description for the Barker notation used in ERDs .)
Regards
Anupam
Thanks in Advance

I answered my own question. In case anyone doesn't already know. Easy enought...

Operation cancelled on SQL Developer still running on the DB

Using either the SQL Developer 2.1.1.64.39 or .64.45 versions when a DML statement (e.g. SELECT, DELETE, etc.) is executed and few seconds after cancelled before it finishs, the SQL Dev IDE shows as the operationwas cancelled, but it still running at the database level.
If you try to close the SQL Developer to cancell the operation, you will get a "Connection is currenly busy. Try again?", but you can only chose Abort and wait.
Regards,
ASCh

SQL Developer is certainly not just cancelling statements in the user interface - I can cancel a query that normally takes two minutes to run after five seconds and then immediately run a different query in the same connection and get the results (ie the cancelled query is no longer running in the database).
You are probably seeing the difference between the UI no longer waiting for the statement to complete and the statement actually completing in the database. Especially with DML the database needs to clean up from the cancelled statement, rolling back changes already made by the statement before it was cancelled. Even selects can allocate temporary space for sorting which would need to be cleaned up on cancelling the select.
I would not expect closing SQL Developer to do anything more to cancel the statement in the database than it has already done - SQL Developer has already told the database to cancel the statement and it is just taking some time for the database clean up after the cancelled statement.

Find the schema which contains all these tables

In my DB, only SCOTT has all the three tables EMP,DEPT, BONUS. There are schemas which have either one or two of these tables but only SCOTT has all these 3 tables.
To find the schema which contains all these *3* tables. I tried the below mentioned queries which gave the wrong answers.
1.
select TABLE_NAME, owner from dba_Tables where table_name IN ('EMP','DEPT', 'BONUS')-- will return any schema which has any of these tables. So, wrong result
2.
select TABLE_NAME, owner from dba_Tables where table_name = 'EMP' AND TABLE_NAME='DEPT' AND TABLE_NAME= 'BONUS'-- Wrong result because it is mutually contradictory. As AP has mentioned below, A table_name cannot be equal to all the three tables .

Thanks everyone. So, this means that this seemingly simple query cannot be written with just a plain AND , OR . Right?You're right. Every query needs SELECT and FROM, for example.
What's wrong with Solomon's simple solution?
Whatever you don't like about it, I'm sure there's another approach that doesn't have the same problem, even if it is slower and more complicated.
As AP pointed out, no one row has all the information you need to decide if that row will be part of the result set or not.
You need something that can make a decision based on the data in multiple rows.
GROUP BY, like Solomon suggested, is the easiest and most efficient way I know of.
Anything that GROUP BY does can probably be done by analytic functions. In this case, it will be more complicated and slower, but you can get the same results.
A self-join, as user13524665 demonstrated, is another way.
You could also get the results you want using EXISTS-, IN-, or scalar sub-queries, all of which would be even more complicated, and scale just as poorly, as a self-join.
CONNECT BY, recursive sub-queries, MODEL, and XML functions can also look at several rows at the same time. I don't believe you want to read and test soltuions for all of these any more than I want to write all of them. Solomon gave a good solution for your original problem. If you want to add some extra restrictions to your problem (such as "I can't use ... or ...") explain clearly what those restrictions are, and why you need them.

Where can I find the schema for config.xml file of jax-rpc

For the xrpcc tool I need to create a config.xml file, does any body know where can I find the schema for it?

http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.0/tutorial/doc/JAXRPCxrpcc.html and all your questions will be answered... except maybe why aren't these pages linked from the main index anymore? (they were when 1.0 of the tutorial was released, but then there were no docs for wscompile or wsdeploy. The JAX-RPC release notes fixed the latter, but around 1.0_01 they broke the former.)

So, Question is , How can we find the no of sales orders(IDocs) generated for the customers on the specific day ?
Hope you all understood my requirement .

How to find the number of references created for a given object ??

How to find the number of references created for a given object in a big application environment.
That means, if i give any object name (of my application) as input, then how can i find the[b] number of references created for that particular object ??

Please do not post the same question multiple times.
As for your original question, there is no direct way to do it.
Especially not the way you phrased it,
since objects don't have "names".
Applications also don't have "names".
They have classes and instances.
Also, there are 2 related issues, and I'm not sure which one is the one you asked.
#1. Finding the number of references to the same object.
Eg.
Map<String,String> a = new HashMap<String,String>();
Map<String,String> b = new HashMap<String,String>();
Map<String,String> c = a;In this case, there are only 2 objects.
The first object has (at least) 2 references pointing to it.
The second object has (at least) 1 reference pointing to it.
(There may be more, if the HashMap library keeps
references to these things, or if the HashMap object has
some internal cyclic references...)
If you're asking this, then it can't be done.
It's an active research topic in universities
and software research labs, called "alias analysis".
Type it in google, and you'll see people are working hard
and having little success so far.
#2. Finding the number of instances created from a class.
In this case, what you have to do is to add a counter to
the constructor of the class. Every time an object is constructed,
you increment the counter. Like this:
   class MyClass
       public static int counter = 0;
       public MyClass( ) { counter++; }
    // Then later in your program, you can do this:
    MyClass a = new MyClass();
    MyClass b = new MyClass();
    System.out.println(MyClass.counter); // It should show 2Note: you won't be able to do this to every class in the system.
For every class you care about, you have to modify its constructor.
Also: when an object is deleted, you won't always know it
(and thus you won't always be able to decrement the counter).
Finalizers cannot always work (read Joshua Bloch's
"Effective Java" book if you don't believe me), but basically
(1) finalizers will not always be called, and
(2) finalizers can sometimes cause objects to not be deleted,
and thus the JVM will run out of memory and crash
