  2. Support jobs

    The tool does not support object type : JOBS .
    The job belongs to the selected schema and the " schema compare / Source Control " ignores this type of object.

  3. Allow schema comparison from a specific revision of the repository

    When your source or destination is an SVN repository allow to select a specific revision of the repository.

    It is true that there are workarounds for this but it would save time to do it automatically in the tool because now either you have to checkout or update to an specific revision from the svn or you have to create tags in your repository for each version.

  4. Filter objects by user custom text filter

    I have multiple different objects between schema and i nedd to compare only onjects (filter objects) that corespond to a more complex criteria (not just by name). I would filter for example by creation date (in a certain interval), object type, eventually the name, and other custom criteria.

    It would be very nice that in the project properties (or near the filter by name) user could have an edit box to edit the custom criteria.

    For example, criteria could look like:
    (objectname like 'TR%' or objectname like '%BN') and objecttype in ('VIEW', 'TABLE') and createddate>sysdate-3)

  5. snapshot

    Create snapshot options should be similar to those in the SQL Server tool. We are currently limited to snapshot only from TNS and manual connection. We should have the options to create a snapshot from script file or source control. This is vital to our build automation

    You can do this once you have performed a comparison the UI. I presume you mean using the “Create snapshot” in the start menu.

  6. Sorting Database Objects in Sync script

    When we create a syncronization script we have diffrent order of objects from time to time. It is not very good for us, because it is hard to find out changes.
    Could you please make that the order does not change (for example in alphabetical order).

  7. New option is needed to compare mviews as just tables (ignore mview definition)

    Due to DML-only replication requirements target schema might contain only tables for related mview in source schema. In this case current configuration of SC shows difference: mview exist only on source and tables exist only on target. This is not correct if compare tables only.

  8. Add database-level objects to schema (database?) compare

  9. Schema Compare Report - interactive html-report - minor bug causes images not to show in Firefox via http-server

    When you put a and interactive-html-report and its images folder underneath htdoc of an http-server, the images fail to show in Firefox while working fine in Internet-Explorer. This can be fixed easily by changing function SetupImagesDir() :
    instead of the currently generated backslash:
    imagesdir = reportFileName + "images\";
    use forward slash:
    imagesdir = reportFileName + "    images\/";

    In my tests this works in both IE and FF both via direct file and http-server.

    We are hoping to soon update the report entirely to be more consistent with the report generated by SQL Compare, the SQL Server sister tool. Please let us know if you have any other suggestions on what the report should show.

  10. Be able to launch Schema Compare for Oracle from within Windows Explorer by clicking on the .ocp project file?

    Received a support request from a customer looking to start or launch a comparison by simply clicking on the project .ocp file.

  15. More control over file naming of source-controlled script files.

    It would be good if generating source control files where would be control how files are named.
    Data Compare does not allow joining related objects (like table with alias and indexes), so allowing to change alias name filenames and index filenames patterns would be nice (like prefix+tablename+fieldname for index)

    planned  ·  Richard Mitchell responded

    Sounds like this is a bug which is best raised via support@red-gate.com

    From what I can see DATE is equivalent to a TIMESTAMP without any timezone information. Looks like it isn’t one of our automatic conversions currently so we can add some test cases and make it happen.

  19. Constraints against other schemas

    Include constraints that's against other schemas

  20. separate type spec and type body

    Please separate type specifications and type bodies. (e.g. "CREATE TYPE FOO AS OBJECT" and "CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE BODY FOO"). Most of the time our changes are only to the body but Schema Compare will try to recreate the spec on deployment even if the spec has not changed.

    This will fail if it has dependencies and make automated builds fail when using the Deployment Suite for Oracle with a build system.
