NLS_LANG wishlist

[Davide Migliavacca]

It would really help a lot when developing on multiple projects/oracle instances to be able to set the NLS_LANG setting as an attribute of the oracle connection.
Currently I need to set the NLS_LANG variabile in a shell and run PL/SQL developer from that shell. This is of course error-prone.
Thanks for considering this.

perhaps we can add a function that would allow you to define a set of connection-specific session initialization commands. This way you can add your "alter session set nls_..." commands, and perform any other session initialization.

I have added this to the list of enhancement requests.

That's even better than what I was thinking about.
Thanks,
Davide
