Set toolbar content for all users of a server

[jlathion]

Hi everybody,

I just installed the latest version of PL/SQL Developer (10.0.5) on a test server that was previously using a 9.0.5 and I am having troubles with toolbars.

In version 9.0.5, I created some user-tools that were included in toolbars via preferences files. This part of setup was centralized somewhere so that all developers can benefit of those tools automatically (common centralized files are refreshed automatically at launch and the path is given to pl/sql developer via command line argument)

I saw that in version 10.0.5, the management of toolbars is a little bit different and shortcuts added in toolbars are stored somewhere in a toolbar.ini file that is created for every users in its own AppData folder. What I want to do is to be able to centralize this toolbar.ini (or at least a part of it) so that all users of the server will automatically benefit from those features when starting PL/SQL developer without having to add all shortcuts manually from Customize option.

Is there any way to tell PL/SQL Developer where to find this toolbar.ini as for preferences file via a command-line parameters ?

Thanks in advance.

The location of the toolbar.ini file is fixed to the %APPDATA%\PLSQL Developer directory. The only solution is to copy a centralized version to the user directory when PL/SQL Developer is first used.

Thank you Marco.

Is this something that may change in the future ? I'm not asking this as a requirement but simply for my curiosity
