I retrieved Debug.txt from C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Programs\PLSQL Developer 15. (Probably because I installed just for me, not for all users on my PC.) The has, near the end: select * from nls_database_parameters where parameter like 'NLS%CHARACTERSET'; This fetched 2 rows. For information...

Hi, I was pleased to see "stability improvements" at the top of the fixed list for 15.0.1, but I'm finding it less stable than 15.0.0 (that I downloaded on May 11th). I didn't note the exact 15.0.0 version, but if I get fed up tomorrow I may revert back and advise the details. The problems...

Hi Marco, I'm going to press my luck, here, with a related feature idea ... In the filter expression to find a workset, could it include the possibility to filter for worksets including files with names matching the expression entered? Thanks, Tim

Sold. :-).

Hi, I have lots of Worksets. 56 at the moment. I probably should archive or delete some of them ... That aside, I wondered if there were any plans to improve the way the Worksets are listed in the "Open" drop-down menu. Maybe adding a "sort" button, or allowing grouping into folders / menu...

Thank you

Hi, Loving the workset facility - it helps me gather the set of files I use for particular pieces of work within the application together with useful SQL for that work. One thing I am finding annoying, though, is a knock-on from a workflow I use for managing patch releases: the patch files are...

I gave the DBMS_SESSION.RESET_PACKAGE idea a try today by adding the call to my test script. It clearly did something as I got no dbms_output ;-(. Recalling that dbms_output state is a package state setting, too, I added dbms_output.enable(); after the reset_package call - but this still didn't...

Hi all, Seeking any tips, here. I often find I have to disconnect and reconnect my test window because the session state of the package I'm working on has been invalidated and therefore I need a new database session. Sometimes there's an additional complication where several packages are...

Marco, Did you get your debug.txt? I've finally got fed up with this problem and found a few things which pointed me specifically to plsdev ... and then found this! What I've found is that in a command window for a large sql script (1,361kb, 27,013 lines) it's much slower than in a brand new...

Hi, I've been thinking for a while that there must be an easy way to do this. Let me first describe what "this" is. In our application install scripts we have several lines of mod history above the "CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY" line. When we get an error in the application, the line number...

D'oh. Thanks. Time for more coffee ... ;-)

Hi, Has anyone else run into this? When the code assistant pops up the list of parameters for, for example, "regexp_replace", they are listed alphabetically. This isn't inordinately helpful: (result) varchar2 [modifier] in varchar2 [occurrence] in binary_integer pattern in varchar2...

Of all the things that are higher priority, there's one niggle that keeps catching me out... If I ctrl-click on a tab with unsaved changes, I get: "Close Window discarding possible changes?" (Yes/No) If I click on the 'x' to close the tab, I get: "Save changes to [file name]?" (Yes/No/Cancel)...

I've been working on an extensive "little" project for a week or so and thus have been leaving plsdev open so that I can pick up where I left off very easily. I arrived at work this morning to find that plsdev is advising me that the timestamp on all of my files that were open has changed. I...
