A Quick Word on Java…

You’ll need a JDK, not just a JRE (not the Java that runs in your browser)

I recommend Java 8

Or download SQL Developer that includes the JDK – no install required

SQL Server connectivity in SQL Developer is provided officially for migration projects

Copy to Oracle Right Click (single objects, quick ‘n’ dirty)

T-SQL -> Oracle SQL & PL/SQL Translator

Wizard driven complete database migrations

Object Editors are read only

SQL Worksheet for Ad Hoc Queries/Scripts

User Defined Reports

SQL Developer & SQL Server In a Nutshell

Connectivity

We require the jTDS driver for SQL Server & Sybase ASE

OS and User/Pass Authentication

Set default Database

Copy ntlmauth.dll to your JDK/jre/bin directory

Connectivity – Mac?

Open connections.xml file in your SQLDev Install Folder/.sqldeveloper/system* dir

<StringRefAddr addrType="customUrl"><Contents>jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://Server_FQDN:1433;instance=<instance_name>;

domain=<domain_name>/</Contents>

Thanks +Anthony Ballow for the tip!

Browser – Click, See Objects

Immediately browse objects and see the data

Non-Oracle objects are basic features only, no updates/alters

Worksheet: Best for Ad Hoc Queries

Worksheet: Hints

/*sqldev:query*/ if your expecting a result set to be returned

/*sqldev:stmt*/ if you are expecting nothing returned

In lieu of clicking through SQL History (F8)
