There’s an export and import button on the preferences panel where you see the
SQL Formatter settings.

I took your sql and ran the formatter with my preferences (commas at the
beginning of a line baby!!) and got the text below. That looks pretty
reasonable to me.  I know Jeff Smith reads this group so possibly he'll know if
its possible to export/share preferences. If it isn't seems like a cool
enhancement request to enforce corporate coding styles if nothing else.  

 

SELECT

  end_time

, wait_class#

, (time_waited_fg)/(intsize_csec/100)

, ( time_waited)  /(intsize_csec/100)

, 0

FROM

  v$waitclassmetric

UNION ALL

SELECT

  end_time

, -1

, SUM(

  CASE

    WHEN metric_name = 'CPU Usage Per Sec'

    THEN value

    ELSE 0

  END) fg

, SUM(

  CASE

    WHEN metric_name = 'Background CPU Usage Per Sec'

    THEN value

    ELSE 0

  END) bg

, SUM(

  CASE

    WHEN metric_name = 'Average Active Sessions'

    THEN value

    ELSE 0

  END) dbt

FROM

  v$sysmetric

WHERE

  group_id         = 2

  AND metric_name IN ('Background CPU Usage Per Sec', 'CPU Usage Per Sec',
'Average Active Sessions')

GROUP BY

  end_time

ORDER BY

  end_time

, wait_class#

Doesn't work well though. 

 

trailing / left hanging and long lines in SELECT or WHERE clause are not broken
up so they are readable. 

 

I like the plain and simple 

FUNCTION

(

    FUNC2

    (

       column_name

    )



 

... but have found no way of configuring SQL Dev formatter to do this. For
example, the CASE statements are OK, but what happened with the functions on
the SELECT list?

 

SELECT   end_time, wait_class#, (time_waited_fg)/(intsize_csec/100), (

    time_waited)                                /(intsize_csec/100), 0

  FROM v$waitclassmetric

UNION ALL

SELECT   end_time, -1, SUM(

      CASE

        WHEN metric_name = 'CPU Usage Per Sec'

        THEN value

        ELSE 0

      END) fg, SUM(

      CASE

        WHEN metric_name = 'Background CPU Usage Per Sec'

        THEN value

        ELSE 0

      END) bg, SUM(

      CASE

        WHEN metric_name = 'Average Active Sessions'

        THEN value

        ELSE 0

      END) dbt

  FROM v$sysmetric

  WHERE group_id   = 2

  AND metric_name IN ('Background CPU Usage Per Sec', 'CPU Usage Per Sec',

    'Average Active Sessions')

  GROUP BY end_time

  ORDER BY end_time, wait_class# /

Hi,

 

It' s still there in SQL Developer 4.x, you can find it by right-clicking the
SQL text in the SQL sheet or hitting Ctrl+F7.

In version 3.x, there was a SQL Formatter in the "Edit" menu.  One keystroke
would reformat horribly tangled SQL monsters. In the version 4.x, this very
useful feature is gone. Why was that done? Who decided to throw this out and
why?
