Which sql developer version will support oracle 8.1.7

hi
which sql developer version will support oracle 8.1.7 or is it necessary to use plsql developer to connect to database (oracle 8.1.7)

Hi,
SQL Developer version 1.2.1 is able to connect to 8.1.7 with limited functionality (prepared reports and browser for objects could not work)..
Next version (tested with 3.2 64-bit) of SQL developer could be "hacked" to connect to 8.1.7 by simply copy file C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1\jdbc\lib\classes12.zip from Oracle client prior 11
into appropriate jdk\jre\lib\ext folder.

  • SQL Developer does not support Oracle 8i

    Hi,
    I was waiting a tool from Oracle like SQL Developer for a long time, finally it came, but I am a little disapointed, so Why SQL Developer does not support Oracle 8i? Other free tools like SQUIRREL can do it. I also have worked in previous projects using PL/SQL Developer and it works fine...Why a native Oracle tool can not do it?
    I am in a project where we have to upgrade the Oracle database to a newer version, but I cannot have access to the old one...
    I know there are some threads in this forum, and some people can work with 8i with no issues. Can anyone who works with SQL Developer and Oracle 8i please tell me how to do it?
    Thanks,

    That's what I thought, the issue is more commercial ($$$) than technical. Anyway...I downloaded the version 1.1 but now I am getting an ORA-02248: invalid option for ALTER SESSION error. 00604. 00000 "error occurred at recursive SQL level %s".

  • Which SQL Developer version is compatible with which Oracle db version?

    Does anyone have a link to the docs that detail which versions of SQL Developer support which versions of the Oracle database? We're looking to upgrade our 10.1.0.4 database to 11gR1 or 11gR2, and we're wondering if we'll need to upgrade out SQL Developer 1.5.4 installation as well.

  • 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.

  • MS Access 2010 and Oracle SQL Developer Version 4.0.3.16 Error

    OS: Windows 7 Enterprise
    System Type: 64-bit Operating System
    I can not get MS Access 2010 to work/open with SQL Developer version 4.0.3.16.
    ERROR when testing connection to MS Access 2010
    "Status : Failure -Test failed: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified"
    I added the 32-bit ODBC data source for the MS Access I am trying to use with SQL Developer version 4.0.3.16 with the "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe" application, but I still get the same error.
    I appears that SQL Developer version 4.0.3.16.is looking at the 64-bit driver (ODBC Data Source) and I have no idea to direct SQL Developer version 4.0.3.16 to use the 32-bit driver (ODBC Data Source) when opening MS Access 2010.
    Thank you in advance for your advice.

    I downloaded the SQL Developer version 4.0.3.16 "sqldeveloper-4.0.3.16.84-x64.zip" that included the jre.
    How do I check which Java JDK I am running (32-bit versuns 64-bit)?
    In the command prompt I use "java -version" and I get this message "java is not recognized as an internal or external command"

  • Desc not working in SQL Developer Version 1.1.3 Build 27.69

    Hi All,
    I am using Oracle SQL Developer Version 1.1.3 Build 27.69
    select count(*) from abccount(*)
    100
    using desc / describe table name gives error
    desc abcERROR:
    ERROR: object abc does not exist
    1 rows selected
    I am able to perform select on the table but not desc/describe. I tried suffixing with schema name , still the same error persists.
    Kindly provide a workaround
    Tnx

    Well 1.1.3 is quite old.
    The best thing to do IMHO is to update to the latest version, it will also enable a load of new features and fixes.

  • SQL Developer 3.0 against Oracle 10g

    Hi,
    I have used SQL Developer in previous employments and prefer use it now (ie SQL Developer 3.0), but unsure if the mix will work.
    I am on a Windows Server 2003 Std 64bit Edition and with Service Pack 2. and have Oracle client 10g home with basic tools against an Oracle 10G database server.
    So before installing, I would like some tips on the best mix for Client and Server with respect to SQL Developer.
    I also understnad that it will require Java JDK install prior to SQL Developer. Will this require me to take into consideration current Java installs under
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin" and dated back to 30 Sept 2010
    Many thanks before hand
    Chris

    You can can download SQL Developer with a JDK included. This is 32-bit, but will run fine in a 64-bit OS.
    Alternatively you can download the 64-bit version of SQL Developer. This requires you to have a 64-bit JDK.
    You can install multiple JDKs without interfering with each other. Your existing JRE installation won't work anyway as you need a JDK.
    If you download a JDK, don't get Java 7 as SQL Developer doesn't work properly with that. Get the latest version of Java 6.

  • I ther any SQL developer version for SunOS 5.10 (Unix)

    Is ther any SQL developer version for SunOS 5.10 (Unix). If it is available, please tell me from where it can be downloaded and how it can be installed?

    <p>You can use any of the downloads except the Mac or Linux ones.
    <p>We separated out the Windows downloads because that's the largest audience we have. So there are 2: one is the full install, and one which allows users to point SQL Developer to an existing, installed JDK. This means that you don't end up with duplicate or even multiple JDKs installed.You can download either of these. If you don't have the JDK installed, you might as well install the full build. The other thing about the full install is that it includes an early JDK release and many users prefer to use the latest JDK.
    <p>The entry for the "multiple platforms" is exactly the same build and code as the Windows without JDK. Both of these require you to download and install or already have a JDK installed.
    <p>I try to make this page clearer for each release. It seems I'm not there yet!
    <p>We certify on Windows, Linux and the Mac. There is a page detailing certification specifics see the home page of SQL Developer. We do not certify SunOS, but Unix platforms are supported. This means that you can use SQL Developer, but any issues you run into must be tested against a certified platform before we'll track the bugs.

  • Japanese characters in SQL Developer  Version 1.5.4

    I am using SQL Developer ver 1.5.4 with Oracle 11g. There are Japanese characters stored in VARCHAR2 field.
    When I execute a SELECT SQL query, SQL Developer does not display Japanese characters in the Result window -- it displays row of small square characters instead.
    (When I execute the same query as a script -- it displays the Japanese characters in Script Output window,
    What should I do to have SQL Developer to display Japanese characters in Result window?
    Thank you!
    Mark.
    Edited by: MarcoPolo on Jul 7, 2009 11:16 AM

    Hi there, Have you fixed this issue?
    I'm having the same issue albeit with SQL Developer VERSION 1.5.5
    The Select stmt displays the the empty square boxes in the result window, I've set the encoding preferences to UTF8 in the menu and font to Arial Unicode (there is no option to set script to Japanese). How can i display japanese characters in the results window??
    When i export these empty square boxes in the result window to notepad (where encoding set to Unicode and Font set to Arial Unicode and Script to Japanese), the japanese value is displayed correctly in the notepad.
    Kindly provide some input
    Many Thanks
