SQL Navigator 5.5

Hello,
I tried SQL Navigator 5.5 as target. (Windows XP 32-bit)

I got the "unsupported window class" error for the two editor windows.

Target window class: TQuestSynEdit

Is there any workaround ?

I'm not sure if I can help you with that. A general workaround is to try entering target's editor advanced options manually. On the Target tab in SQL Assistant options, select Toad for Oracle, and click the little copy button to duplicate it. Rename the target and modify the Advanced options, you will need to expand this group. Change target .EXE name, title, Window class and other things as a required. Save changes and start the target. It might work but there is no guarantee, it all depends on how the editor window is implemented internally and whether it can be hooked using generic target registration methods.

Hello,
I tried that with the following options

If I understand this correctly, you don't get any errors, but it doesn't work either. Right? Did you set "SQL Assistance Type" option for this target?

Hello.

So what's the solution of this problem? SQL Assistant wouldn't work with SQL Navigator for me neither. It says "unsuported window class".

Will it support SQL Navigator? Any suggestions?

Thanx

SQL Navigator is not currently supported as a predefined target. But there is a chance that SQL Assistant can be configured to work with it.

Do you have Visual Studio or other development tool installed on your system which provides Spy++ or similar utility to explore window classes? You can try some standalone utilities like WinspectorSpy etc...
If you got such utility, please use it to make a screenshot of Window class hierarchy, something like in the attached example. If you can do that, we might be able to suggest how to configure SQL Assistant to work with SQL Navigator.

WinSpy++ says

and SQL Assistant when pressing Ctrl-Shift-F5 says

and I've configured the next

but SQL Assistant when pressing Ctrl-Shift-F5 keeps saying

You said SQL Navigator is not currently supported as a predefined target. OK then. What about Eclipse? However it's supported, SQL Assistant fails to work with it just like it does with SQL Navigator

For Eclipse, you need to install SQL Assistant plug-in, which we developed specifically to support the Eclipse Platform. Did you install that plug-in? Is that plugin listed in the Eclipse Installed Plugins list?

We need to see the window hierarchy to say for sure if SQL Assistant can be configured somehow to work with SQL Navigator, not just the window class of the target window. In order words, to say what could be entered in the properties of the target profile we need to know its windows and their hierarchical relationship.

Since you got Spy++, you should be able to see that. Just find SQL Navigator in the windows tree in Spy++ and expand that branch of the tree all the way until you see TQuestSynEdit . Please make a screenshot and attach a picture similar to mine.

Yep, I haven't installed the Eclipse plugin. That's my fault I'm sorry.

Here goes the hierarchy of SQL Navigator's TQuestSynEdit window

Looking forward for solution :) Thanx

Unfortunately you are out of luck. The hierarchy is ok and the right edit window is picked for the assistance, but TQuestSynEdit class doesn't seem to respond to standard Windows edit messages and as a result SQL Assistant is unable to interact with it.
