The message box displayed in case of an exception has been redesigned.
The button that previously opened the Oracle error documentation has been replaced by a hyperlink for quicker access.
An additional hyperlink is now included to start a Google search for the Oracle error message.
For ORA-00942 (table or view does not exist), KeepTool now adds a list of the referenced tables or views to the error message to simplify troubleshooting.
The “Use Unicode” checkbox now always defaults to true.
In earlier versions, the default was copied from the most recently used connection to the same server. This sometimes led to users unintentionally disabling Unicode support and being unable to reset it easily.
Starting with Oracle 23ai and Oracle 19.28, schema annotations are available.
KeepTool 16.2.3 now supports these annotations for tables, table columns, and views in the following components:
Show DDL dialog
Reverse DB Engineer
DB Compare
Oracle ADB restricts access to several V$ data dictionary views, even for users with DBA privileges.
To avoid exceptions in this environment, Hora:
Skips affected queries, and
Disables certain pages such as the Sessions page.
The setup now installs the Wibu CodeMeter runtime version 8.40.
It is strongly recommended to update the CodeMeter runtime, especially on network license servers.
The runtime can be downloaded at: Wibu User Software Downloads.
