Hi Phillip, I've just installed the versions indicated for SQLcl and SQL Developer, executed the patching procedure, bounced windows several times, but my window connection is empty:

And also new connection wizard is not working, as it's not shown.

Any ideas? Thanks, Jose.

I have no idea why this happens. And I cannot reproduce it

Have you followed the instructions in https://github.com/Trivadis/plsql-formatter-settings?tab=readme-ov-file#patching-sql-developer? Especially step 5? - Clearing the system cache is important, otherwise a lot of strange things can happen.

Yes, all steps including the clearing of the cache (several times)

Yes, all steps including the clearing of the cache (several times)

In that case, I recommend to revert the changes. This means: close SQLDev, copy dbtools-common.original.jar to dbtools-common.jar, clear system_cache and restart SQLDev. The formatter settings should still work in most cases ATM.
