Different query plans and performance for same sql query

Hi,

I am running a simple select query with where clause. Where clause has three columns. A composite index is exist against the columns in where clause.

Problem is this if i run this query through SQL developer it is taking 0.01 mili sec to run.

But when i run this query through other editor like Toad or run through JDBC it is taking about 172 - 180 mili sec.

Both hitting the same index but showing different query plans. The cost when run through sql developer is less too.

For JDBC/Toad plan is using

INDEX SKIP SCAN
