Schema compare in Toad 12.12

Toad for Oracle
1

Hi,

please can we get back the old version - Toad 12.10 an later - of the schema compare. The new one is unusable!

Several compare options don’t work - ignore case sensitive, ignore schema names -, so there are more differences then it is.

In the tree there is no option to deselect an group or all differences.

In the differences overview there is no popup menu - lost in delphi object inspector ? :wink: - but ^F for search works. Jump to the next differences or a detail view and copy and past is not available.

Try Compare Multiple Schemas. That window has been rewritten and can handle 1:1 comparisons

Yes, try Compare Multiple Schemas. It is a combination of 12.10’s “compare schemas” and “compare multiple schemas”, and I think you’ll find it a lot more familiar.

I hope Compare Multiple Schemas works out for you but we would also like to know exactly what is going on with Compare Schemas. Some options did not work in 12.11 but we fixed them in 12.12. Have you had a chance to try 12.12 to see if these options still don’t work? If you find these issues in 12.12, please tell us specifically what is not working.

Thanks!

My compares seem to be working fine, but I miss some of the functionality in the old compare (or at least do not know how to turn it on). Luckily I have an older version installed for compares. The following are the things I miss the most.

  • Ability to see the tables associated with a change - the parent table name used to be listed in a column along with the object that has changed
  • Seeing differences is harder now. The new “difference” windows are rather small (I’d like to open in a new window or tab) and you can no longer jump from change to change quickly. I’m forced to scroll through code to find the changes.
    I miss this feature here:
  • I also miss the ability to uncheck the 3 major categories of “differences” - I.e. “Objects Which Differ”, “Objects only in schema A”, “Objects only in Schema B”

In Toad 12.12, use “Compare Multiple Schemas” if you want something that is closer to the older Toad’s Compare Schema window.
