Overview of this book

At times, DBAs support 100s of databases at work. In such scenarios, using a command-line tool like putty adds to the difficulty, while SQL Developer makes the life of a developer, DBA, or DB architect easier by providing a graphical user interface equipped with features that can bolster and enhance the user experience and boost efficiency. Features such as DBA panel, Reports, Data Modeler, and Data Miner are just a few examples of its rich features, and its support for APEX, REST Services, timesten, and third-party database drivers demonstrate its extensibility. You may be a newbie to databases or a seasoned database expert, either way this book will help you understand the database structure and the different types of objects that organize enterprise data in an efficient manner. This book introduces the features of the SQL Developer 4.1 tool in an incremental fashion, starting with installing them, making the database connections, and using the different panels. By sequentially walking through the steps in each chapter, you will quickly master SQL Developer 4.1.

Working with PL/SQL objects

Triggers, functions, procedures, and packages all have their own separate nodes in the Connections navigator. A single-click on any object in these PL/SQL nodes opens as editable PL/SQL code, as shown here:

Working with PL/SQL objects

In the preceding screenshot, the initial Code editor is the editable PL/SQL code editor. This Code editor is included in the set of display editors for the selected procedure.

Tip

Unlike with other database objects, each new selected PL/SQL object opens a new window. In other words, the windows are automatically pinned for the PL/SQL windows. For more information, see the Chapter 4, Working with PL/SQL.
