SubVersion in SQL Developer - how to link to packages and procedures

My question is this - I am starting out using SubVersion in Oracle and it seems pretty straightforward to use as a source control for files that are stored in a Windows directory, that is the only way I have used it so far.
Am I able to use it to control packages and procedures that I have saved as part of my database, ie the procedures are part of a package and the package appears within the Packages section of the appropriate connection in SQL Developer.
I hope this makes sense.
Cheers,
JabJam

Hi JabJam,
So far, everyone is correct. SQL Developer just uses a file-based source control system (e.g., SVN), which means updating database object definitions via scripts under version control, or somehow exporting the new definition to a script so it can be version controlled after the fact. And wouldn't it be nice if the database objects could be version controlled directly. With the database developer having control over when any changes are committed for shared use in the database. Similar to using the SVN plug-in for an IDE like Eclipse for a given programming language in a shared development environment.
But what would your DBA have to say about that? Don't most DBAs require scripts for deploying code or structural changes?
In Oracle, definitions (DDL) are committed automatically. Anyone granted access sees them. Since you probably don't do development directly against a production database, eventually scripts (either manual or generated) will be needed for deployment to QA or production. Few mechanisms currently exist to work against an active database without other authorized users also seeing these changes.
For DDL, the closest thing would be the fairly recent edition-based redefinition feature in 11g (R2, I think). For DML, the OWM (Oracle Workspace Management) feature would be loosely analogous.
This is not a simple issue. Version control via an extension for Subversion provides essential basic support. Going beyond that might mean watching the evolution of edition-based redefinition, but DBAs would probably require scripts for that too.

This sounds like an old bug where sqldeveloper checked for 'select any table', but you actually need 'select any dictionary'

Can SQL Developer control versioning of stored functions and procedures?

Hi all. I have a problem with my project, for developing Oracle functions and procedures. My team want to control versioning of that.
I found that Oracle SQL Developer support versioning features with CVS and Subversion. But I think it just about the files not functions and procedures.
We don't want to control version of files and copy it to stored somethings..
Do you have any idea?
Thanks for reading this post.

Since K asked :)
Both SQL Navigator and Toad for Oracle support controlling PL/SQL at the FILE and DATABASE level.

How to create a package and add a file?

Hi all,
I am new to Java and very much much confussed with how to create a package and then include some files any help will be very thankfull.
Thanks for your help
kka.

Steps for creating a package in java are as follows:
Choose a base directory for your classes. For example, you might choose c:\java\packages. Type the following command:
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;c:\java\packages
Create subdirectories for each chapter or section, if you don't already have them.
For each of the classes in the subdirectories, add the following line to the very top of each file:
package directory-name;
where directory-name is the name of the subdirectory the class file is located in.
In other directories you may have class files that need to access one of the classes in another directory (package). To do this, write one of the following at the top of the class that needs the other class:
import subdir.*;
or
import subdir.classname;
Use the class by name in the new class file.
Note that you can create sub-packages by creating subdirectories of the original subdirectories, and inserting package statements at the top of the java files in those directories.
Hope this helps!

Newbie to sql developer, how to stop a query

Hi All,
A very basic question and I've searched through this forum and Tom's site, i think i read it somewhere but i forgot where and what it was.
How can I stop a query running in Sql Developer with what key combination?
Ctrl-C D E Q .........., help!
When I 'leave' for another application there a nice grey screen appearing so i can't use the buttons.
Thanks in advance and my appologies if there is an answer already and I didn't find it.

A query in the worksheet can be stopped using the Cancel button in the worksheet's toolbar (the 5th button). Hovering over it, you see the default hotkey assigned is "Ctrl-Q".
If you get a gray screen means your SQL Developer locked up. There's currently no way of canceling what is locking him up. You could kill its session, but that's pretty radical and takes its share of time fining out what to kill and how.
What another user on this forum (EricH) suggested, is running 2 SQL Developers side by side. When 1 locks up, he uses the other one. Although I'd like SQL Developer in the future to run it's queries in separate sessions by itself, thus preventing the whole program to lock up.

What does that have to do with SQL Developer?
You can limit the rows a query returns by using ROWNUM

SQL server 2014 in VS 2013 - Develop 3 different types of packages and maintain them efficiently

Hello Everyone,
I’ve been assigned a task to develop 3 different SSIS packages.
Package 1 – There will be roughly 50 CSV files, I need to read them one by one and create a new database and a table per CSV file in SQL 2014.
This will be a one-time job.
Which is the best option in SSIS package to create database and tables in SQL 2014? I assume I need use “Execute Script Task” here, although please advise.
Package 2 – This will run on daily basis. It will again read those 50 CSV files one by one and migrate their data to tables.
Also, out of 50, couple of files (the exceptional file names have to be configured somewhere as client might add some more files for it out of 50) needs to be treated in different way.
For them the tables have to be truncated first and then insert data into them.
Which is the optimal and fastest way to move such data from these files to SQL tables? Can I run the parallel job in for each loop container?
Where should I configure such “no ordinary” file names?
Package 3 – This job will run once a six months. It will basically perform a purge for the data.
This needs to be parameterized where client can set-up a cut-of-date for it and it will delete the data from all these 50 tables at SQL server.
How to allow a client to insert the cut-of-date?
What is the optimal option to read all tables of database (50 tables) and perform purge based on the cut-of-date?
Common question:
Where should I keep the path for the folder from where I need to pick the CSV files?
How should I deploy and schedule package 2 and 3?
Can anybody please advise what are the efficient/standard ways to maintain such packages?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, <b>Ankit Shah</b> <hr> Inkey Solutions, India. <hr> Microsoft Certified Business Management Solutions Professionals <hr> http://ankit.inkeysolutions.com

You can create a Table in your Database to store all folder path and/or other parameter values (i.e. Error
File Path, Export/Archive file folder path, email address for notification, SSIS catalog deployed folder/project name etc).
For Project deployment: Deploying

After deploying the project, use SQL Agent to schedule Scheduling SSIS packages

SQL Developer version 3.2.20.09 and Oracle Diff

It is my understanding that from this version onwards this functionality would be available without licensing but it is not available for use actually, maybe I am doing something wrong or just "bad info" ?
I downloaded jre version 32 bits.
Thanks!

It is my understanding that from this version onwards this functionality would be available without licensing but it is not available for use actually, maybe I am doing something wrong or just "bad info" ?
You need to provide more information than that.
1. How did you come by this 'understanding'?
2. What does 'not available for use' mean? It is available to me.
3. We have no idea if you are "doing something wrong" since you didn't bother to post WHAT you are doing or HOW you are doing it. You do realize that you have to have at least two DIFFERENT databases open don't you?. You can't do a 'diff' between databases if you don't have two databases open to 'diff'.
4. As restated in the PL/SQL Packages and Types doc for the DBMS_METADATA_DIFF package
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18283_01/appdev.112/e16760/d_metadiff.htm
Use of the DBMS_METADATA_DIFF package requires a license to the Oracle Enterprise Manager Change Management option.
Someone from the sql developer team will need to confirm whether the product uses that package and if the free sql developer application waives or alters that license requirement. My own hypothesis would be that the product uses the package but does NOT waive or alter the license requirement.
