As a reminder I would humbly suggest that if you have an idea of how these
products could be improved then opening an Request For Enhancement (RFE)
at the IBM Software RFE Community site would be the way to go
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/ If you don't let the developers
know about how you think that the product can be improved then things
won't change. You can also read RFE's that others have written and vote
for them if you agree with the proposed enhancement.
All the best, Mike

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Data Studio 4.1 -- No query history?
Sent by: wdsci-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx
I have been using the SQL Explorer plugin for quite a while now, and it is
pretty solid. (
http://sourceforge.net/projects/eclipsesql/)
One of the best features is also its worst, the Query History view. It is
great to be able to quickly filter and find past SQL statements. However,
it seems the formatting of those past statements gets lost when they are
saved to disk - something that drives me nuts. I hate having reformat
enough that I am always looking at potential replacements. I use
http://www.dpriver.com/pp/sqlformat.htm for formatting, which gets close
to how I would manually format, but not quite the same.
When I heard that Data Studio was now available with RDPi, I expected that
a commercial offering would probably answer my wishes. Unfortunately, it
appears that there is either no SQL History view or it is buried somewhere
and I cannot find it.
Before uninstalling I figured I might as well ask if anyone else has found
a compelling reason to use Data Studio over SQL Explorer (or QuantumDB)?
