Ability to sync database object comments

Postby etevans » Mon May 14, 2012 12:39 pm

I would like the ability for DbSchema to sync comments created on database objects in the database to be synchronised with the "Description" feature in the dialog box for the schema objects. For example, adding a comment onto the database table in the database should show up in the Description portion of the dialog box for that table and vice-versa after "Refresh Schemas from Database".

On some database the comments are synchronizing with the database, on what database did you face this issue?

Please update DbSchema to the latest beta version:
Go to Edit -> Configuration -> Automatic Updates -> Update Source -> Beta -> Save and Close | go to Help -> Check for updates, after the updates completes, restart DbSchema.

Got the latest beta release and connected to my 11.2.0.1.0 Oracle database and selected "New Project Connected to Database" -> selected a schema. After import I looked for the comments for tables and columns that exist in the database to be visible in the ERD. No comments from either tables or comments show up in the ERD.

Upgraded to 6.1.0 build 3628 and still see no comments from an imported schema on tables and columns that have comments that exist in the database.

Probably a separate issue but constraints also do not get imported into DbSchema.
