Oracle SQL Developer 1.2: SQL*Plus Support

Updated: June 2007

This document details the commands which are supported by Oracle SQL Developer 1.2 via the SQL Worksheet.

All SQL and PL/SQL commands are supported as they are passed directly from the SQL Worksheet to the Oracle database.

SQL*Plus commands have to be interpreted by the SQL Worksheet before being passed to the database. The SQL Worksheet currently supports a number of SQL*Plus commands. SQL*Plus commands which are not supported by the SQL Worksheet are ignored and are not sent to the Oracle database.
