PL/SQL Developer and the Oracle 11g 64-bit Client

[Troy Allen Cross]

Is there a method to get PL/SQL Developer to work with the Oracle 11g 64-bit Client?

Thanks in advance, Troy

You will need to install a 32 Bit Oracle11g Client. PL/SQL Developer is a 32 Bit application, so it cannot interface with a 64 Bit Oracle Client.

The 32 Bit Oracle Client can communicate with a 64 Bit Server, even on the same machine if necessary. The 32 Bit client can coexist with a 64 Bit Oracle installation when installed in separate Oracle Home directories.

Hi Marco,

DOA supports 64 bit, right?
Why don't you create a 64-bit version of PL/SQL Developer?

We're working on it.
