Database Links - Objects Unviewable

Oracle SQL Developer 1.1 Patch 2

When I connect to a database with my schema, I can see all my objects in the database, however, when I try looking at objects that I have access to in a different database through a database link...no objects show up. The database links are present in the database that I am connecting too, but I am unable to view other objects that I have access to through the database link? Is this a bug or do I not have the connection setup correctly?

If you mean being able to see remote objects amongst the local ones, I'd say that's a missing feature you can request at the SQL Developer Exchange.

The best that you can get with the current functionality is to list the synonyms you have for the objects across the database link, assuming that you have created synonyms.

Creating synonyms for the remote objects in the schema you want them to appear would make a great workaround, nice one furry!
