BUG in ToDo-List

[ams]

In fact it's not a bug in ToDo but the impact on ToDo is dramatic.
I have written several ToDo yesterday and wanted to add some today, but ... they are all vanished. Nothing to find of them. Some experiments bring me to the following:
If you place a comment (and ToDo is a automatically placed Comment) in the first line of a code (I tested it with package body), then it is ignored when compiling and not stored.

I don't know if it's a PLSQLDEV ore ORACLE Bug but what I realized is, that a comment after the first code line IS beautified by PLSQLDEV and a comment before the first code line IS NOT.

(PLSQLDEV 6.0.0.840, Oracle 10.1.0.2.0 )

Thanks

If you rely on the source in the Oracle dictionary instead of a file on the file system, then it is indeed important that you realize that only the text after the "create or replace" statement is saved (compiled into the Oracle dictionary). Comments before the "create or replace" are ignored by the PL/SQL compiler on the server.
