New plugin - StartupOptions

[Clouds]

Hi Marco (and all others),

I created a plugin that allows users to have files opened or new windows created at startup.
Last week I sent it to support by email, but it might not have been spotted yet (or I am being impatient

Current version does have decent configuration possibilities, unlike the version I sent.

Hope to hear it's interesting enough.....

Greetz,

Clouds

Your Plug-In is available on the Add-ons page . If you have an updated version, let me know.

Clouds,

when no INI-File is available then loading the plugin fails:
1) Error: Could not activate Plug-In: StartupOptions
2) Error: I/O error 103

is this changed on your current version?

greetings,
Uli

can you also extend the functionality to include OnConnect events, that would be cool.

eg

connect new sql run select * from v$instance;

Uli,
This is fixed in the new version.
These messages are now in the splash-screen.
I guess it can be downloaded soon.

Richard,
I haven't thought of that because I always use commandline parameters to automatically logon.
It's not in this new version, but I will look into it.
(PS: Your email made it through the junkbox

Regards,
Clouds

Richard,

Would this be useful to you?:
- If there is a connection on startup, the windows are created immediately.
- If there is no connection on startup, windows will not be created until the first connection is made.

Or should it be possible to set this differently for each window?

Fire at will....

Hi Clouds,

What i was tihnking was, when a person connects. the plugin scans the ini file again and does whatever is specified by lines beginning with connect ( for example ). When i connect, i like to query v$instance to ensure i am talking to what i think im talking to. If that can be be automated in such a way so that it happens once before i can do anything, every time i connect, that would be good.

ps. i never startup with a connection, all my shortcuts are "/NOLOGON"

Richard,

Since I had some bugs to beat last minute before I released version 1.0,
I decided to skip to 1.1, which includes the options you like to see.

Posted it today to support.
