Describe on remote Object

[Lars]

Hello
We are running two Oracle databases.
From one database we access data in the other database via database link and synonyms.

Describe only seems to work with objects from the current database (connected to in the current session) and not the database accessed via database link.

In toad this works fine.

Is there a way to do the same with PL/SQL Developer?

Thanks for any help.

This is currently not possible, you can only describe objects from the database you are connected to.

Do you plan to support this in an upcoming release?

This is indeed on the list of enhancement requests. You are not the first to ask.
