I don’t use SQL Developer much but have been using it with JDK 7 for a while and even though it’s not supported, I haven’t seen major problems.  However, I’m only doing basic stuff in there so it’s not a full-fledged test.

 

Eric is spot on with how SQL Developer works and the ability to change which JRE is used.  Ron’s comments are interesting and IMHO the co-worker is probably better sticking with 6 (since it’s supported) despite the message from Oracle.

I am currently working on this and JDK 1.7 does not work with Forms/Reports 10g.   You have to uninstall JDK 1.7 and reinstall JDK 1.6 to get either IE 9 or Mozilla 19 to run Forms/Reports 10g.   At least on my laptop that is what I had to do, which is an HP DV7 Notebook 64bit machine running Window 7 premier.

There is supposed to be a fix working with the EBS running 10g Forms/Reports but I haven't gotten that tested yet.  Can let anyone know my results if they're interested, just reply to let me know and I will post it here.

Greg,

 

I think this is just a reference to Java 6 in general.  If you are using the Java  JRE  that comes with the Oracle 11 client you will be fine unless you encounter a bug.  Not sure about the compatibility of SqlDeveloper

with Java 7, If that is what you are asking,  my guess is that it would work just fine as they keep deprecated classes around for some time.  I’ m sure that Oracle will either begin to package future releases with a newer Java, or perhaps not.  They are usually

way behind.  BTW – in troubleshooting the issue of SqlDeveloper asking the first time where Java is on your machine (So that I could automate client pushes) I found the place that they store the path to the JRE.   I recall it being in Sqldeveloper.conf.  So,

you could have multiple versions of Java on the machine and change which version  SqlDeveloper looks uses.

 

Hope that helps a little.

 

Eric

Does anyone have any idea what this announcement from Oracle:

 

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/6u43-relnotes-1915290.html

 

This release is the last of publicly available JDK 6 Updates.

Oracle recommends that users migrate to JDK 7

in order to continue receiving public updates and security enhancements. All JDK 6 releases up to and including 6u43 will be moved to Java

Archive, where they will remain available but will not receive updates. For users who require continued access to JDK 6 updates, long term support is available through the Java

SE Support program.

 

will have on SQL Developer?
