Hello,
Regardless of version, when SQLDeveloper is first started up, it reads the tnsnames.ora file and all the aliases can be seen in the drop down list.
However, if the tnsnames.ora file is updated, SQLDev does not refresh the TNS entries. Starting a new instance of SQLDev gets the updates.
Is there a way to compel SQLDev to reread the tnsnames.ora file once an instance has started?
Thanks
Andrew
