Hi Everyone,
I am very happy to announce that today we released Oracle Developer Tools for VS Code version 21.3.0. Please try it out and let us know what you think.
Oracle Developer Tools for VS Code (SQL and PLSQL) - Visual Studio Marketplace (0 Bytes)In this release, we fixed a lot of bugs that were reported in this forum. Thank you for your help making the prooduct better and please keep the feedback coming!
New features in 21.3.0:
Create and manage Oracle Autonomous Databases (ADBs) using the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Explorer tree control. Create, start, stop, and terminate ADB instances. Automatically download credentials files and create a database connection. Change the compartment or region, modify the administrator password and view the Service Console.
Autocomplete/Intellisense setting to select whether to use uppercase or lowercase
Results window data grid paging control to page through rows instead of a vertical scroll bar
Oracle Database Explorer context menu to download PL/SQL files into a specific directory or into the folder that is currently open
Opening stored procedures, functions or packages in a database via Oracle Database Explorer no longer saves the PL/SQL to a temporary file. Use the new download context menu or the Visual Studio Code menu Save As->Show Local if you wish to save the PL/SQL to a file.
A few tips about this release:
Make sure you are on Visual Studio Code version 1.51.1 or later. You can check the version by using the Help->About menu item. To upgrade select Help->Check for Updates. Older VS Code versions will not see this 21.3.0 update in the Marketplace
