I don't get to do much development, but I am writing a fairly simple package
and thought I would try using SQL Developer. When I get errors having run it,
the line number reported is the line in the package body, as you would expect.
However I have the package definition, some synonyms, etc. above the package
body in the file, so I have to mentally add 152 to the line number to get the
line number in the file.
Also, if there is a compile error, SQL Developer takes me to the line number in
the file rather than the line number in the package body when I click on it.
Is there a configuration option to change this behaviour to something more
useful? Or some functionality I could use to easily take me to the line number
(e.g. in vim I would go to the line above the create package body, then type in
"234j", where 234 is the line number reported, to get to the problem.)
I realise a possible solution would be to create one file per object. What do
you do?
Thanks
